Taking the best from all sources, Religious Science has access to the highest enlightenment of the ages. Religious Science reads every man's Bible and gleans the truths therein contained. It studies all peoples thought and draws from each that which is true. Without criticism, without judgment, but by true discrimination, that which is true and provable may be discovered and put to practical use.
What is the Truth? Where may it be found? And how used? These are the questions that an intelligent person asks. He finds his answer in the study of Religious Science. Shorn of dogmatism, freed from superstition and always ready for greater illumination. Religious Science offers the student of life the best that the world has so far discovered.
It has been well said that "religions are many; but Religion is one." The varying faiths of mankind are unnumbered but the primal faith of the race is today, as of old, the One Faith; an instinctive reliance upon the Unseen, which we have learned to call God. Religion is One. Faith is One. Truth is One. There is One Reality at the heart of all religions whether their name be Hindu, Mohammedan, Christian or Jewish. Each of these faiths, limited by its outlook upon life and the universe evolved its own specific statements of faith called creeds and beliefs and henceforth was governed by the same.
Spiritual experience is always a new thing; it ever seeks to express itself in a new way. The history of religion is a history of a periodic breaking away from the older body and the formulation of a new body of disciples to whom had come new light and a more satisfying experience.
While the Universal Mind contains all knowledge and is the potential of all things, only as much truth comes to us as we are able to receive. Should all the wisdom of the universe be poured over us we should yet receive only that which we are ready to understand. Each draws from the source of all knowledge that to which he inwardly listens. The scientist discovers the principle of his science, the artist taps the essence of beauty, and the saint draws Christ into his being because to each is given according to his ability to receive.
