THE INNER ROOM

CONTAINING quotations from our replies to those writing us for help in their Spiritual problems. Each day at 12 o’clock noon, we take the names of those asking for such help in the Silence of the Spirit, and “Speak the Word” for them. Many hundreds have testified to receiving the blessings of such ministry.


WHAT GRIEF FOR DEPARTED ONES CAUSES

THERE is so much you need to learn about yourself and the cause of all these inharmonies that are now manifesting in your body and your life, that we are led to enclose herewith a little book, THE WAY OUT, which we urge you to read carefully and prayerfully and learn here how what is now manifesting is the result of the wrong thoughts you have been carrying in your mind and which you believe are so about yourself, your body and your affairs. This being true, can you not see that the real cause of your suffering with your kidneys and your back is the grief you are carrying around in your heart about your mother—that this grief does her no good and you a great deal of harm; that your mother is far better off where she is in spirit than she was in a diseased body, and the same with your father?

Think you that their Loving Father does not know best when their work is finished and it is time for them to come back to their Heavenly home? Would you not selfishly seek to keep them back from that home? Think on these things, dear friend, and stop hugging that grief to yourself, and you will find the trouble with your kidneys and back will soon leave you.

TRANSMUTATION OF THE FLESH

ANSWERING your question, we do not remember it says in so many words in the Magazine that the body can be entirely remade by right thinking. We do know, however, that when one fully realizes that God alone is living in that body, and holds to that Truth despite anything that appears, and especially to the fact that one’s True Body is in the Image and Likeness of God, and one sees that body only, gradually a change will take place, and there will be a transmutation of the old flesh into the pure and perfect body of Christ.

As for that applying to the teeth, do you think you are ready to do all that is stated above and can do it. If you can, then even the teeth and bones will respond. But we would not advise you to count upon your ability to hold only the perfect Image of Christ in your mind until that change manifests. Instead, we would suggest that you go to a Dentist and have your teeth properly cared for—if you wish to retain them and have any use of them the rest of your life. When you truly make the finding of the Kingdom FIRST in your life, you will not be concerned about this subject of rebuilding your teeth or your body, as those things will be taken care of, as was promised by our Lord and Master, Jesus Christ.
