CHILDREN OF THE MOST HIGH
Good Morning!!!
CHILDREN OF THE MOST HIGH
Around the Year with Emmet Fox
July 14
Read Matthew 7:7-11
This is the wonderful passage
in which Jesus enunciates
the primary truth of the Fatherhood of God.
He says here, definitely and clearly,
that the real relationship of God and man
is that of parent and child.
It is extremely difficult to realize
the far-reaching importance
that this declaration holds for the life of the soul.
It is axiomatic of course,
that the offspring must be of the same nature
and species as the parent;
and so, if God and man are indeed Father and child,
man must be essentially divine too,
and susceptible of infinite development
up the rising pathway of divinity.
That is to say, as man's true nature unfolds,
he will expand in spiritual consciousness
until he has transcended
all bounds of human imagination.
It is in reference to our glorious destiny,
that Jesus himself says elsewhere,
quoting the older scriptures:
Jesus answered them,
"Is it not written in your law, I said,
Ye are gods?
If he called them gods,
unto whom the word of God came,
and the scripture cannot be broken. . . ".
(John 10:34-35)
