Faith We have taken three steps in our study of mind or search for truth. We have found that the Principle of Life is Good and is Spirit, and we have found of what Good is composed and where Spirit is. We have discovered the laws by which this Principle works and how to apply them to our own life problem in order to solve it correctly. The next step must be one of decision each for himself. Do we accept all this as reasonable and are we willing to obey these rules? Do we believe that these statements are statement of truth and the very truth that we want? Do we believe that they are The Truth that will save us from all that has heretofore been distressing and hard to endure? Does our mind assent to these propositions and accept them as true? This is the important question now. Assent is faith and if we have not the belief that is faith we can go no farther in our study, and the rest will be simply a hearing of the outer ears. Real study is with the mind and tends to the understanding of The Mind, or Spirit, or spiritual understanding which is real or true knowledge. Hopkins, Emma Curtis (2011-09-04).
