"But if ye had known what this meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice, ye would not have condemned the guiltless."—Matt. xii. 7.
The Word of God reaches, with its intrinsic, spiritual meaning, in some degree, the meek in every age; for meekness accords with divine Wisdom. By the abasement or relinquishment of self, the earthward weight, those thus loosened from the snares and nets of finite sense, rise in Spirit, through the elevation of divine thought.
This ascending recognition of infinite Being is beyond the flesh or physical sense, and is therefore metaphysical. The Kingdom, which we must claim through Christ, Truth, eschewing all other as Jesus did, being "not of this (physical) world," is truly transcendent. It is the realm of the infinite "I AM," Him who is "the Truth,"— this spiritually metaphysical universe, opened to us by understanding of the Heaven or eternity of Good, that is in divine Mind.
