The stone rolled away Glory be to God, and peace to the struggling hearts! Christ hath rolled away the stone from the door of hu- 45:18 man hope and faith, and through the reve- lation and demonstration of life in God, hath elevated them to possible at-one-ment with the spiritual 45:21 idea of man and his divine Principle, Love. After the resurrection They who earliest saw Jesus after the resurrection and beheld the final proof of all that he had taught, 45:24 misconstrued that event. Even his disciples at first called him a spirit, ghost, or spectre, for they believed his body to be dead. His reply was: 45:27 "Spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have." The reappearing of Jesus was not the return of a spirit. He presented the same body that he had before his cru- 45:30 cifixion, and so glorified the supremacy of Mind over matter. Jesus' students, not sufficiently advanced fully to un- 46:1 derstand their Master's triumph, did not perform many wonderful works, until they saw him after his crucifixion 46:3 and learned that he had not died. This convinced them of the truthfulness of all that he had taught. Spiritual interpretation |
