REGENERATION

From the August 1889 issue of The Christian Science Journal


"Thus it is with everyone having been born of the Spirit." Principle here declares Truth, and this Truth is made manifest through the signs that followed him who declared it to humanity.

This declaration is concerning that personality of man which is indeed born of the Spirit. In his analogy, Jesus compares the presence of this true man to the voice of the winds. It is local, definite, and perceptible to mind, but not to material sense. The voice of omnipresent Truth (the individuality of Christ) was made manifest to mortal consciousness through the lips of Jesus of Nazareth; but if we look to this finite personality for salvation or for Truth, we only hear this response, "If I bear witness of myself my witness is false."

God is All in all, and Man, in his image and likeness, is the same yesterday, to-day, and forever, and fills spiritual immensity. The real personality in this infinite Idea— Man— remains forever distinct in spiritual identity, and manifests infinite, individualized qualities of Divine Mind.
