Divine healing is based upon thesupposition that we speak from an absolute center—the I AM or first cause. The treatment is unconditioned by any element of time as the past, present, or future. It is not conditioned by anything that has ever transpired. It would not be possible for a metaphysician or spiritual healer to do effective work, if he judged according to appearances.

He has forgotten his divine origin and accepts the opinion of man as the truth; consequently, he sins or errs because he does not know that his own I AMness is the God that he seeks. He dwells, therefore, in the land of many Gods and the belief in many powers. The man who loves Truth and practices the Presence of God is like a magnetized piece of steel. The man who is asleep to God is like a demagnetized piece of steel—the magnetic current is there, but it is asleep within him. When we dwell in the presence, the electronic and atomic structure of our body reforms and vibrates accordingly.
