Holy inspiration has created states of mind which have been able to nullify the action of the flames, as in the Bible case of the three young Hebrew captives, cast into the Babylonian furnace; while an opposite mental state might produce spontaneous combustion. We should relieve our minds from the depressing thought that we have transgressed a material law and must of necessity pay the penalty. Let us reassure ourselves with the law of Love. (Science and Health 161:5, 384:3).
La inspiración sagrada ha creado estados mentales que han sido capaces de anular la acción de las llamas, como en el caso bíblico de los tres jóvenes hebreos cautivos, echados al horno babilónico; mientras que un estado mental opuesto podría producir combustión espontánea. Debiéramos aliviar nuestra mente del deprimente pensamiento de que hemos infringido una ley material y que necesariamente debemos sufrir el castigo. Tranquilicémonos con la ley del Amor. (Science and Health 161:5, 384:3).
This law of God is always working. If God’s child trusts in this law, then he will be delivered from evil.
