THE PATHWAY TO PERSONAL POWER

“O MAN! KNOW THYSELF, FOR IN THEE IS HIDDEN THE TREASURE OF

TREASURES.”—(From an Egyptian Tablet)

You are seriously entering upon this course of instruction. your secret path-way to the attainment of Supreme Power in your own life HERE AND NOW. This power is GOD. Through your new-found powers, which these teachings and lessons will impart to you, an utterly new and a greater’ and grander conception of the personality of the Almighty, of the Ever-Living God will take visible form in your mind and in your life.

GOD IS CREATIVE SPIRITUAL POWER

You will no longer belittle the Creative Power of God, in which is all Power, by picturing God in the dis­torted image of a severe autocrat, sitting somewhere above the clouds balefully watching a world of “sin­ners” who, after all, are but mental infants playing on the floor of the world, trying to spell G-O-D with the wrong blocks. Instead we shall teach you to picture God as Creative Power, Infinite Power so great, every-where so present, that it lives and breathes in the smallest atom of the Universe, both personal and imper­sonal.

GOD, in this glorious interpretation, is infinitely and eternally Creative. THE—ALL-OF EVERYTHING. Creative, God-Power pulsates this moment through your human body; .images in your human’ personality, dimly or clearly, for God IN you lives in your individual and conscious existence. You will feel sad use this tremendous DIVINE CREATIVE POWER as the curtain is raised which has shut it out of your conscious­ness.

YOU ARE WHAT YOU THINK

Solomon, that ancient sage of The Misunderstood Book, the Bible, says of Man: “for as he thinketh in his heart (mind) You are now an Initiate in the class and you are receiving our Master Course of instruction because you desire power–the Power of Healing, the Power of Happiness, the Power of Success, the Power to attract Money, with its comforts and security. HERE AND NOW.

We teach scientific and secret ways of unfoldment, of Poise, of Power and of the attainment of your heart’s CHIEF DESIRE in this life, HERE AND NOW’, beginning TODAY. Circumstances may have clothed your life heretofore with the negative raiment of gunny-sacking, but we teach you how to discard these rags, and we show you how to clothe your life with the positive raiment of the Cloth of Gold.

ATTAINMENT CAN BE YOURS

We teach you HOW your part of the Great Spiritual Law. is but to understand.

We shall help you. to develop your mind into the great picture gallery of Imagination where, at your com­mand, thought-images can materialize into Riches, the only marketplace where you can trade poverty for Abundance. Can you con-trot your emotions now, so that through your desires those emotions become a dynamo of Power. and a pool of perfect peace? In these lessons we will give you the key to the emotions; how to harness and use them in attaining your desires.

IS HAPPINESS ONLY IN YOUR DREAMS?

As we unfold them to you in these confidential lessons. Does Success, ever beckoning, elude your grasp and vanish before your eyes? We teach you how to bring Success to your door, HERE AND NOW.

In “The Silence”: study—In The Silence: work—In The Silence: listen; and the voice of ETERNAL SPIR­IT shall be your guide, even though that voice comes to you in soundless whispers. like the fluttering of unseen wings.

“Let us work, therefore, my brethren, because the night cometh when no man shall labor. May the Light which is behind the Veil shine through you from your throne in the East upon the brothers and sisters of the American Bible Institute. and lead them unto that perfect DAY, when the glory of this world passes, and The Great Light shines across that splendid sea which surrounds the throne of God.”
