The insight for today:

"DEATH AND THE RESURRECTION"

"By man came death, by man also came the resurrection. Here is a plain statement that man alone is responsible for death and the resurrection. The great teacher has told us, God is not the God of the dead but of the living, for all live unto Him.Through our mistakes we die. All die in Adam, and all are made alive in Christ. Christ and Adam are two different names for the same man; one is earthly, the other is heavenly. Adam typifies the material man with his false estimate of life, while Christ typifies the principle of holiness, or wholeness. Each of us is both Adam and Christ. We die daily in Adam and daily are we resurrected in Christ. There is a daily death to that which is untrue and a daily rebirth into the true. The angel of our better selves keeps watch by the graves of our lesser selves, pointing the way to life, truth and beauty. This angel is Christ, forever dwelling in the bosom of the eternal Spirit. Adam pulls down; Christ uplifts.By man alone came mistakes. By man alone will come salvation. Let us remember the saying of Emerson: The finite alone has wrought and suffered, the Infinite lies stretched in smiling repose.The finite must put on the Infinite if it is to be resurrected. The resurrection principle is the eternal manifestation of life in higher and higher forms of expression."

Insight:
"Man fell. Man will have to rise. God will never desert him but will ever manifest Himself to any who consciously partakes of the Divine Nature. We are to look, not to the fallen Adam, but to the resurrected Christ. Both are within us."

“It operates simply by speaking.”
