It Is Of Great Advantage That Man

The Question, "what Is The Purpose Thereof?" Cannot Be Asked About Anything Which Is Not The Product Of An Agent; Therefore We Cannot Ask What Is The Purpose Of The Existence Of God.

I Find It Expressed In Various Passages Of Scripture That The Fact That God Knows Things While In A State Of Possibility, When Their Existence Belongs To The Future, Does Not Change The Nature Of The Possible In Any Way; That Nature Remains Unchanged; And The Knowledge Of The Realisation Of One Of Several Possibilities Does Not Yet Effect That Realisation. This Is Likewise One Of The Fundamental Principles Of The Law Of Moses Concerning Which There Is No Doubt Nor Any Dispute.

The Prophet Isaiah ... Points Out What Will Be The Cause Of This Change; For He Says That Hatred, Quarrel, And Fighting Will Come To An End, Because Men Will Have A True Knowledge Of God. "they Shall Not Hurt Nor Destroy In All My Holy Mountain: For The Earth Shall Be Full Of The Knowledge Of The Lord, As The Waters Which Cover The Sea" (isa. Xi. Ver. 9) Note It.

All Attributes Ascribed To God Are Attributes Of His Acts, And Do Not Imply That God Has Any Qualities.

The Soul Is Subject To Health And Disease, Just As Is The Body. The Health And Disease Of Both . . . Undoubtedly Depend Upon Beliefs And Customs, Which Are Peculiar To Mankind.
