It is a good maxim to trust a person entirely or not at all; for a secret is often innocently babbled out by those who know but half of it. They learn their Art at the hazard of our lives, and make experiments by our deaths. God, since he is not a confounder of human sense and reason, would not choose to speak in riddles or mysteries. He chooses to speak in terms that are intelligible to us—terms that reveal rather than obscure and mystify. The glory of God and the stints in Heaven is represented by the brightness of the Sun and the glory of an Earthly kingdom, which are the greatest images we are able to frame of it. The word glory invokes a future happy state, the reward of a virtuous life. The word, despite its obscurity, is semantically promising—that is, it includes or evokes a kind of expectancy or hope, namely that it expects me in the Heavens, that I shall enjoy it, and be made partaker of it; and that it will render me happy beyond all imagination. Revelations must rely upon the evidence of faith. Mystery does not designate what cannot be known by humans but, rather, what is revealed on to the chosen few. #RandolphHarris 1 of 5

How is it possible to think, or make any intelligible statements, about a transcendent God or a supernatural World? How can ideas produced in the course of sensational encounters with the natural World at the same time serve to report a reality that is beyond the reach of sensation? If the supernatural World is beyond the reach of our natural experience, is it not also beyond the reach of ideas formed on the basis of that experience? Faith, the hallmark of Puritanism, is consequently of no avail without the confirmation of reason. Spiritual progress is based on acceptance as a matter of free will and choice and thus everyone experiences only the World of their own choosing. All is self-creating as the manifestation of the mind of God. Because the Universe is self-evolving and self-fulfilling, no intervention is necessary. All is in perfect balance and harmony. It is no longer a World with individuals who need saving, but an energy field to life and reinforce. God has sent out his Holy Spirit, whose sweet but powerful breathings are still moving up and down in the World, to quicken and revive the souls of humans, and awaken them unto the sense and feeling of those divine things for which they were made. #RandolphHarris 2 of 5

God is ready to assist such weak and languished creatures as we are, in our essays towards holiness and felicity: and when once it has taken hold of a soul, and kindled in it the smallest spark of divine love, it will be sure to preserve and cherish, and bring forth into a flame, which many waters shall not quench, neither shall the floods be able to drown. Whenever this day begins to dawn, and the day-star to arise in the heart, it will easily dispel the powers of darkness, and make ignorance and folly, and all the corrupt and selfish affections of humans, flee away as fast before it as the shades of night, when the Sun comes out of his chambers: For the path of the just is as the shining light, which shines more and more unto the perfect day. They shall go on from strength to strength, till every one of them appears before God. Choose to be easygoing, benign, forgiving, compassionate and unconditionally loving towards all life in its expressions without exception, including oneself. Focus on unselfish service and the giving of love, consideration, and respect to all creatures. #RandolphHarris 3 of 5

God knows what he is doing in your life. Avoid negativity and the desire for Worldliness and its greed for pleasure and possessions. Forego opinionating, the judgment of right versus wrong, the vanity of being right. Seek to understand rather than to condemn. Trust in the love, mercy, infinite wisdom and compassion of Divinity which sees through all human error, limitation, and frailty. Place faith and trust in the love of God. Like the Sun, the love of God shines equally on all. Why should we think it impossible, that true goodness and universal love should every come to sway and prevail in our souls? Is not this their primitive state and condition, their native and genuine constitution, as they came first from the hands of their Maker? Sin and corruption are but usurpers, and though they have long kept possession, yet from the beginning it was not so. That inordinate self-love, which one would think were rooted in our very being, and interwoven with the constitution of our nature, is nevertheless of a foreign extraction, and has no place at all in the state of integrity. #RandolphHarris 4 of 5

They know not what they do. The only sin is that lack of understanding. It is not very efficient or rewarding to battle sin and get into a struggle to use will power to overcome defects. The way out of conflict is not to try to eliminate the negative but instead choose to adopt the optimistic view. Our understandings are easily convinced, that we ought to be wholly devoted to God from whom we have our being, and to love God infinitely more than ourselves, who is infinitely better than we; and our wills will readily comply with this, if they were not disordered and put out of tune: and is not he who made our souls, able to rectify and mend then again? Shall we not be able, by God’s assistance, to vanquish and expel those violent intruders, and turn unto flight the armies of the aliens? No sooner shall we take up arms in this holy war, but we shall have all the saints on Earth, and all the angels in Heaven, engaged on our party. It is God’s wish to see the divine life thriving and prevailing in this World; and the will of God may be done by us on Earth, as it is done by themselves in Heaven. Fear not, for they that be with us are more than they that be against us. #RandolphHarris 5 of 5
