Love Rules the Universe

HARRY C. MOORHEAD

When the gentle Nazarene Prophet and Way-shower, Christ Jesus, came teaching and demonstrating the gospel of peace, he revealed the ever-presence of good. He taught that the kingdom of God is at hand, and that it is a kingdom of Love, a universe of harmony, where sin, disease, war, pestilence, poverty, and discord are unknown, and hence devoid of reality.

Jesus came teaching and fulfilling the law of universal Love, and he acknowledged no other power. He knew that all that testified oppositely was in the realm of illusion, mesmerism, aggressive mental suggestion, and that it was therefore unreal and powerless. He proved that Love could master hate. When the chief priests delivered him to Pilate, in answer to the latter's questioning, he said: "My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence. ... To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth." Later, when the angry mob was clamoring for his destruction and Pilate said to him, "Knowest thou not that I have power to crucify thee, and have power to release thee?" he could calmly reply, "Thou couldest have no power at all against me, except it were given thee from above."
