Excerpt from The Divine Man: A New Epic Look everywhere and you will find that growth for a pur pose is an unfailing attribute Of life. The slightest permanent retrogression under the Operation of this law might be regarded as an impeachment of Divine Power. Nowhere in the bible have we been able to find the expression, the fall Of man. If the Omni potent is having His will (if not, He alone is at fault) how could He consistently be angry? Would it not relieve us of many absurdities should we interpret the expression, the wrath of God, to mean, the uncompromising spirit Of His laws against the evil and the harmful; and to interpret Heaven, as the ex pression Of the highest good to us in our harmony with God's will, by perfect obedience to His laws, especially to the all compre hending law of love? Therefore heaven is in us, nay, we are our heaven. Obedience is love, is worship. Cannot the entire world come together on this simple and yet fundamental creed and ritual.
