Jesus Welcomed by the Gentiles—Teaching in Northern Palestine (Part 6)

Said Jesus to his followers: “It is not the purpose of true religion merely to bring peace but rather to insure progress. And there can be no peace in the heart or progress in the mind unless you fall wholeheartedly in love with truth, the ideals of eternal realities. The issues of life and death are being set before you—the sinful pleasures of time against the righteous realities of eternity.” The reading encompassed Paper 157:2.1-4.3, p. 1744
