Have you ever thought about eternal Life, Life that never begins and never ends, the continuity of being, perpetuating all true individuality? Christ Jesus illustrated this eternal Life. Through the healing word of Truth and through his mighty works, he clearly showed to mankind that God is Life and that God, Life, is ever present. Jesus proved completely that this presence and force of Life was a supreme, demonstrable law. The restoration from death of the son of the widow of Nain, of Jairus's daughter, and of Lazarus was undeniable evidence of this law of Life, perpetuating spiritual individuality. The law of Life as demonstrated by Jesus made null and void all material laws regarding life. Paul states, "The law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death." Rom. 8:2.
Christ Jesus showed the steps that we must take in order to be free from the supposed material laws regarding life and to walk in the law of Life. Jesus enabled us to behold our true sonship, our likeness to and oneness with God, divine Life. He commanded us to call no man our father, because our one Father is God. See Matt. 23:9. Thus, he presented man's origin as pure, sinless Mind. Since man's origin is God, man is the very expression of Life, governed by the law of Life.
Through his resurrection, Jesus further demonstrated the law of Life, showing that the substance of man is deathless; it is endless Life. His demonstration uplifted thought to the recognition of the allness of Spirit, which silences the belief that man has ever had an existence separate from God. Resurrection involves rising above the false consciousness of life to the true consciousness of Life and its eternal action. It opens views of infinite possibilities and man's eternal continuity as a witness of God.
