 6	    Would existence without personal friends be to you
  	a blank? Then the time will come when you will be
  	solitary, left without sympathy; but this	                                   Uses of
 9	seeming vacuum is already filled with divine	                           adversity 
  	Love. When this hour of development comes, even if
  	you cling to a sense of personal joys, spiritual Love will
12	force you to accept what best promotes your growth. 
  	Friends will betray and enemies will slander, until the
  	lesson is sufficient to exalt you; for "man's extremity
15	is God's opportunity." The author has experienced the
  	foregoing prophecy and its blessings. Thus He teaches
  	mortals to lay down their fleshliness and gain spirituality. 
18	This is done through self-abnegation. Universal Love
  	is the divine way in Christian Science. 
  	    The sinner makes his own hell by doing evil, and the
21	saint his own heaven by doing right. The opposite per-
  	secutions of material sense, aiding evil with evil, would
  	deceive the very elect.
