This One manifests itself in and through all creation but is not absorbed by its creation. The manifest universe is the body of God; it is the logical and necessary outcome of the infinite self-knowingness of God.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>We believe in the incarnation of the Spirit in everyone and that\u00a0<strong>all people are incarnations of the One Spirit<\/strong>. We believe in the eternality, the immortality, and the continuity of the\u00a0<strong>individual soul, forever and ever expanding<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>We believe that\u00a0<strong>Heaven is within<\/strong>\u00a0us and that we experience it to the degree that we become conscious of it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>We believe the\u00a0<strong>ultimate goal of life to be a complete emancipation from all discord of every nature<\/strong>, and that this goal is sure to be attained by all. We believe in the unity of all life, and that the\u00a0<strong>highest God and the innermost God is one God<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>We believe that\u00a0<strong>God is personal to all who feel this Indwelling Presence<\/strong>. We believe in the direct revelation of Truth through the intuitive and spiritual nature of the individual, and that\u00a0<strong>any person may become a revealer of Truth<\/strong>\u00a0who lives in close contact with the indwelling God. We believe that the Universal Spirit, which is God, operates through a\u00a0<strong>Universal Mind, which is the Law of God<\/strong>; and that we are surrounded by this Creative Mind which receives the direct impress of our thought and acts upon it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>We believe in the\u00a0<strong>healing of the sick<\/strong>\u00a0through the power of this Mind.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>We believe in the\u00a0<strong>control of conditions<\/strong>\u00a0through the power of this Mind.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>We believe in the\u00a0<strong>eternal Goodness<\/strong>, the eternal Loving-kindness, and the eternal Givingness of Life to all.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>We believe\u00a0<strong>in our own soul, our own spirit, and our own destiny<\/strong>; for we understand that all life is God<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cWhat We Believe\u201d by Ernest Holmes<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_crdt_document":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-3074","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.northernlightsspiritualcenter.com\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3074","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.northernlightsspiritualcenter.com\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.northernlightsspiritualcenter.com\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.northernlightsspiritualcenter.com\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.northernlightsspiritualcenter.com\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3074"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.northernlightsspiritualcenter.com\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3074\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3076,"href":"https:\/\/www.northernlightsspiritualcenter.com\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3074\/revisions\/3076"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.northernlightsspiritualcenter.com\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3074"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
