Jesus’ overcoming of sin

     Jesus bore our sins in his body. He knew the mortal errors which constitute the material body, and could destroy those errors; but at the time	 when Jesus felt our infirmities, he had not conquered all the beliefs of the flesh or his sense of material life, nor had he risen to his final demonstration of spiritual power.
     Had he shared the sinful beliefs of others, he have been less sensitive to those beliefs. Through the magnitude of his human life, he demonstrated the divine Life. Out of the amplitude of his pure affection, he defined Love. With the affluence of Truth, he vanquished error. The world acknowledged not his righteousness, seeing it not; but earth received the harmony his glorified example introduced.
