very opening of my new existence, I was plunged into a life not only of intense activity but of such struggle with "principalities and powers," that it left neither time nor strength for that monumental work which was so appealingly called for. The Father solved the problem by sending to me Mrs. Lawson, whose soul was quickened with the purpose of giving a scientific and inspirational guide to thought and feeling-a guide which must present to the as yet unconvinced, but ripe minds of the race a religion which is rational and satisfying. And she, with the devotion of the true lover of her kind, has assumed the far heavier share of this consecrated work. We have joined hands in this task, with a common purpose-to bless. We present to the world these principles and visions which are fundamental, and which will, we believe, be the foundation of the interpretation of life that shall endure. We are deeply persuaded that this vision of life is the means, and the only means, of solving every problem and overcoming every sin of man. We offer it not as a new religion, but as a new statement, in the tongue of this age, of the discoveries of Jesus Christ, before whom we stand as little children-yet as children who comprehend and so love the Elder Brother.
