Rh Soul, bearing opposite testimony, saith:

I hope, dear reader, I am leading you into the understanding of your divine rights and Heaven-bestowed

harmony, — that, as you read, you see there can be no power (outside of erring mortal mind and your own belief) able to make you sick or sinful, and that you are conquering error. Knowing the falsity of material sense, you will assert your prerogative to overcome the belief that you are sick.

If you believe in and practise wrong knowingly, you can at once change your course and do right. Matter

can make no opposition to these right endeavors, against sin or sickness, for it is inert, mindless. So, if you believe yourself sick, you can alter this wrong belief and action without hindrance from the body.

Believe not in any supposed necessity for sin, sickness, or death, knowing (as you ought to know) that God never requires obedience to a law of matter, for no such law exists. Sin and death are destroyed by the law of God, which is the law of Life instead of death, of harmony instead of discord.
