Above error's awful din, blackness, and chaos, the voice of Truth still calls: "Adam, where art thou? Conscious- 308:1 ness, where art thou? Art thou dwelling in the belief that mind is in matter, and that evil is mind, or art thou 308:3 in the living faith that there is and can be but one God, and keeping His commandment?" Until the lesson is learned that God is the only Mind gov- 308:6 erning man, mortal belief will be afraid as it was in the beginning, and will hide from the demand, "Where art thou?" This awful demand, "Adam, where art thou?" 308:9 is met by the admission from the head, heart, stomach, blood, nerves, etc.: "Lo, here I am, looking for happiness and life in the body, but finding only an illusion, a blend- 308:12 ing of false claims, false pleasure, pain, sin, sickness, and death." The Soul-inspired patriarchs heard the voice of Truth, 308:15 and talked with God as consciously as man talks with man. Wrestling of Jacob Jacob was /alone/, wrestling with error, - struggling with a mortal sense of life, substance, and intelligence 308:18 as existent in matter with its false pleasures and pains, - when an angel, a message from Truth and Love, appeared to him and smote the sinew, 308:21 or strength, of his error, till he saw its unreality; and Truth, being thereby understood, gave him spiritual strength in this Peniel of divine Science. Then said 308:24 the spiritual evangel: "Let me go, for the day breaketh;" that is, the light of Truth and Love dawns upon thee. But the patriarch, perceiving his error and his need 308:27 of help, did not loosen his hold upon this glorious light until his nature was transformed. When Jacob was asked, "What is thy name?" he straightway answered; 308:30 and then his name was changed to Israel, for "as a prince" had he prevailed and had "power with God and with men." Then Jacob questioned his deliverer, "Tell me, 309:1 I pray thee, /thy/ name;" but this appellation was withheld, for the messenger was not a corporeal being, but a name- 309:3 less, incorporeal impartation of divine Love to man, which, to use the word of the Psalmist, /restored /his Soul, - gave him the spiritual sense of being and rebuked his material 309:6 sense. Israel the new name
