The Certainty of Man's Immortality

ANNETTE JEAN HORNSTEIN

One can become certain of his immortality if he studies the Bible and the works of Mrs. Eddy. In them he finds that all being is in God, eternal Life, Mind, and that man is Mind's infinite idea, God's reflection. Therefore man is the manifestation of Mind forever. The more this spiritual reality is let into consciousness, the more apparent it becomes that deathless being is the only reality.

Human consciousness must, and will, waken and rise out of its beliefs in the substance and reality of matter into the understanding of Life as infinite Spirit, therefore ever present and eternal.

Mrs. Eddy explains what human beings are on page 37 of "Unity of Good." There she says: "Human beings are physically mortal, but spiritually immortal. The evil accompanying physical personality is illusive and mortal; but the good attendant upon spiritual individuality is immortal. Existing here and now, this unseen individuality is real and eternal."
