   1  We cannot escape the penalty due for sin. The Scrip-
     tures say, that if we deny Christ, "he also will deny us."
   3      Divine Love corrects and governs man. Men may
     pardon, but this divine Principle alone reforms the
     sinner. [[[God is not separate from the wis-

    Pardon and
    amendment

   6  dom He bestows.]]] The talents He gives we
     must improve. Calling on Him to forgive our work
     badly done or left undone, implies the vain supposition
   9  that we have nothing to do but to ask pardon, and
     that afterwards we shall be free to repeat the offence.
         To cause suffering as the result of sin, is the means
  12  of destroying sin. Every supposed pleasure in sin
     will furnish more than its equivalent of pain, until be-
     lief in material life and sin is destroyed. To reach
  15  heaven, the harmony of being, we must understand
     the divine Principle of being.
         "God is Love." More than this we cannot ask,
  18  higher we cannot look, farther we cannot go. To
     suppose that God forgives or punishes sin

    Mercy without
    partiality

     according as His mercy is sought or un-
  21  sought, is to misunderstand Love and to make prayer
     the safety-valve for wrong-doing.
         Jesus uncovered and rebuked sin before he cast it
  24  out. Of a sick woman he said that Satan had bound
     her, and to Peter he said, "Thou art an of-

    Divine
    severity

     fence unto me." He came teaching and
  27  showing men how to destroy sin, sickness, and death.
     He said of the fruitless tree, "[It] is hewn down."
         It is believed by many that a certain magistrate,
  30  who lived in the time of Jesus, left this record: "His
     rebuke is fearful." The strong language of our Mas-
     ter confirms this description.
