In
the first chapter of Genesis we read: "And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
An
incident recorded in the Gospel of Matthew describes a young man who came to Jesus to ask for specific enlightenment on the subject of eternal Life.
IN
his parable of the laborers in the vineyard, related in the twentieth chapter of Matthew, Christ Jesus revealed a higher and more spiritual concept of employment and its reward than that to which mortals are accustomed.
CHRIST JESUS
knew how to remain undisturbed, for he had a clear comprehension of the reality of that which is spiritual and harmonious and the unreality of a material and erring sense of existence.
What
a sense of freedom comes to us when we learn that God is infinite, perfect Life and that our true selfhood is the reflection of unchanging perfection.
