Many persons think that Christianity has failed, and that the failure has brought about disastrous results, when the fact is the world is suffering because the teachings of Christianity have not been sufficiently applied to human experiences.

Peace and good come from only one source, and that is God. Consequently, to find peace and good, one must turn to God. Turning to materiality will not take one to God any more than going into a darkened room and abiding there will take one into the sunlight.

Mankind will experience the kingdom of heaven on earth as material thinking ceases and spiritual concepts are received into human consciousness. Hate cannot express love, nor can evil approximate good. The deliverance from evil is gained through the Christ, in the way God has provided for the redemption of mankind. To be shown how to gain a spiritual basis of thinking and living and obtain the fruits of it, is the dire need of the world today.
