"But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things."
(John 14:-26)
Through centuries of cold, pedantic creeds
The Master's promise of the Comforter,
Whom God would send,
Meant only Scriptural words
That fell on dull and inattentive ears.
Today we know
The promise is fulfilled.
The words the Master spoke to those he loved,
That twilight evening in an upper room,
Are Truth made manifest.
The Christ is come,
And Christian Science is the Comforter,
Teaching, indeed, all things, as Jesus said:
That heaven is here and now,
And that all space is filled with God,
And where God is, is man ...
That God is Love, the only cause and power,
The sole creator and intelligence,
And man, reflecting Him, is Love's idea,
Spiritual, sinless, deathless, infinite.
How safe our journeying from sense to Soul
When in our consciousness we walk with Love!
Love heals, sustains,
Illumines, points the way.
Who dwells in Love
Forever dwells in God.
These are the teachings of the Comforter,
The Truth made clear for all to understand.
These are the teachings of the little book
That John saw open in the angel's hand.
