"The Golden Dream" 1/10/21 Rev. Michael McMorrow
Grounded Beyond the Beginning
Remembering the foundational principles upon which our faith is built, we honor the many traditions which Science of Mind has used as springboards and delve into the deep truth behind these teachings: all is one, and always has been.
Evolutionary Vision: We envision all people, all beings, and all life as expressions of God. We see a world in which every person lives in alignment with his/her highest spiritual principle, emphasizing unity with God and connection with each other; a world in which individually and collectively we are called to a higher state of consciousness and action.
Timeless Wisdom: This One manifests itself in and through all creation but is not absorbed by its creation. There is One Infinite Reality. We call It many names, including, but not limited to God, Life, Universal Spirit, Infinite Intelligence, First Cause or The Thing Itself. The One Infinite Reality is undivided, complete, and whole within Itself. This Oneness creates everything out of itself, and, therefore, includes both the absolute and relative, tangible and intangible, physical and metaphysical aspects of reality.
Science of Mind Point of View: “Religious Science . . . is the result of the best thought of the ages. . . . Taking the best from all sources, Religious Science has access to the highest enlightenment of the ages. Religious Science reads every person’s Bible and gleans the truths contained therein. It studies all peoples; thought and draws from each that which is true. Without criticism, without judgement, but by true discrimination, that which is true and provable may be discovered and put to practical use.” (Holmes, Ernest, What Religious Science Teaches, Introduction).
