Video: God's Will Must Be Consistent With God's Nature

What is God’s will? Is it God’s will that we should be happy and joyous? Or does God test us? Is God shaping our character with lessons? These and other questions about the nature of the will of God are numerous and ancient. In the Science of Mind, we respond by teaching that whatever the will of God is, it must be consistent with the nature of the Divine Being. So, to understand the will of God, we must examine and study the Nature of God.

If God is the author of peace, can the will of God be chaos? No. If God is the source of absolute love, can the will of God be hate? No. If God is Oneness, can the will of God be to divide and separate?

No.

In Living the Science of Mind, Dr. Ernest Holmes wrote, “When Jesus said God is not the God of the dead, but of the living, he was explaining that the Will of God and the Nature of God are Life and not death; for how can the Principle of Life produce death?”

You are rooted in the Divine.

Warmly,

Edward Viljoen

Seeing Good At Work
I have been through the book three times over three years, and am starting it again. This is not because the material in the book is not working, but because it is working so well! The weekly lessons keep me on track and focused on what is actually true and important, and help me experience more good in every area of my life. LS
