SPIRITUALIZING THOUGHT

through recognizing our prophet status

ROWENE L. TENNANT

If asked to name a prophet of modern times, would you be apt to include yourself? You could, you know, for if we acknowledge the fact that man is the image, idea, of God, the all-knowing divine Mind, each of us has the ability to see beyond the evidence of the physical senses.

That man is the reflection and expression of God is basic to the teachings of Christian Science, which are concordant with the Bible. In Genesis we read, "So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him." Gen. 1:27; No place in the Scriptures do we find that man's ability to reflect God had any limitations other than those imposed by mankind's unenlightened thinking.

Mrs. Eddy defines "prophet" in Science and Health as "a spiritual seer; disappearance of material sense before the conscious facts of spiritual Truth." Science and Health, p. 593; Why not accept your status as "a spiritual seer" and demonstrate your present capacity for long-range spiritual perception? This process can be started by identifying man's infinite capabilities.
