That which defiles (Matt. 15:18, 19, 20)
Not what we eat or drink, but what we think, defiles. The issues of life are from within. If a man is clean in his mind, then is he clean indeed. We must keep the mental house free from any thought which contradicts the truth of being.
Life is what consciousness makes it. This is a great realization. Experience may appear to disclaim this fact, but the principle involved is an immutable one, and cannot be shaken any more than the integrity of the universe can be violated.
Let each resolve to be true to himself, true to his inner light, true to the Truth as he understands It. When every man learns to speak the truth, a complete salvation will come to the world. If one thinks impurity, then his acts will be impure. If his thought dwells on purity and truth, then his acts – reflecting his mind – will make him pure and true.
Every plant which is not of God’s planting shall be rooted up. In the long run, everything that does not belong to the Heavenly Kingdom will be destroyed. Truth alone can endure.
