Hymn 218 ~ O Life That Maketh ~ Lyrics
O Life that maketh all things new,
The blooming earth, the thoughts of men;
Our pilgrim feet, wet with Thy dew,
In gladness hither turn again.
From hand to hand the greeting flows,
From eye to eye the signals run,
From heart to heart the bright hope glows,
The seekers of the Light are one:
One in the freedom of the truth,
One in the joy of paths untrod,

CORRECTION ~ MP3 indicates that less than 1% failed, it should have said less than 1% are successful. Some Key Points referred in this Treatment 1. It is God's desire that we pray. The Bible says we should pray without ceasing. To do this, we need to live our prayer. 2. Genesis 1 ~ In the beginning ~ translate to in the only creation there is. We only need to align our lives with God's laws. This means to live the qualities of the 7 synonymous terms for God. 3. God has already done everything. He doesn't have ears to hear us. Each one of us needs to align our lives with the 7 terms for God. 4. If we are in alignment with the laws of the universe which he established, then we benefit from those laws.
5. Genesis 1 ~ God made man & that he gave man dominion over everything. To understand this truly, we have to live it & prove that it is true. 6. We need to follow the path of progress. This path requires one step at a time as stated in Isaiah. "For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little." [Isaiah 28 verse 10] 7. There are in infinite number of degrees. Every time we take it up a notch, we have a stronger, broader, wider, deeper foundation on which to stand. [See 32 Planks - SH 330] 8. We have a larger reserve of truth that we can draw upon to support the denial of anything opposite to it. 9. Truth is what enables us to affirm what needs to be affirmed to refute whatever the error is that tries to attack our integrity in our consciousness. One gains a better understanding of Truth when they understand the lie & then they just flip it, then they will realize what the Truth is.
10. The more you understand Truth, you will understand its opposite. In other words, if the lie is one thing, then the truth is the opposite. And the same with the truth, the opposite is the lie. 11. The difference when we do a treatment is that the focus is primarily on the affirmation & the denial is short with very little time devoted to denial. 12. In other words, stating that the evil is unreal is a short statement because we want our thought to be focused on the Truth. That's what should dominate the time, if there is any such thing as time in any treatment then there is administered. Time is really a false mental finite concept of limitation or God is infinite. 13. Mary Baker Eddy says she has not met anyone that could really transform their consciousness without an involvement of some argument with the error. Now, she was able to do this herself. Others were successful in doing this, which includes Joel Goldsmith, Frederick L Rawson & Wentworth Winslow.
