Healthy Living (sermon summary)

You have read a zillion laws and must-dos for living healthfully. Most of them approach health from the outside in. Healthful living is an inside job based on two laws--Omnipresence and Oneness. Below are some of the highlights from Sunday's sermon:

• The understanding of Omnipresence will do more for your health than any man-made theories based on the material sciences. God's Perfection is Omnipresent. It is all that is Present. Omnipresence includes your Body.
• The truth is HEALTH IS GOD, and therefore is a Universal Constant. Health is not an attainment.
• Welcome your Body into your understanding of Omnipresence. Don't leave it on the outside looking in on all that God Is. Include your Body in the ISNESS of God.
• The secret to Christ Jesus' power is summed up in these words, "I and my Father are one." Go into the prayer closet seeking a better understanding of those words as your very own reality.
• It is natural to progress in understanding from, "I and my Father are one" to "All that the Father has is mine." The next progression is "All that the Father is I AM." And finally, "All that the Father is not, I am not."
• Many folk have sprung out of their sick beds by realizing "Since God is not sick, I cannot be sick, because I and my Father are one."
• If you have already been to your doctor, and she (he) has diagnosed you with ________, turn completely away from the name of the disease, and the prognosis. Rejoice that your Body is Omnipresent Perfection in action. At first, it may seem that you are merely saying words for a healing. The healing (which is the experience of ever present Perfection) will "happen" when you Rejoice because the Truth is already true.

Highlights From The Sermon On Regeneration

• At one time Unity's co-founder, Charles Fillmore, embraced the idea of reincarnation-thinking it necessary for the body to go through many births and "deaths" in order to evolve into the perfect Christ Body. Later, he came to understand that it is possible for all of us to experience this perfect Body in this lifetime without death. In place of reincarnation, Charles Fillmore embraced REGENERATION.
• Regeneration as Fillmore defines it: "A change in which abundant spiritual life, even eternal (deathless) life is incorporated into the body."
• Death, experienced through suffering and disease, is not part of the divine plan for man. It is the result of any human attempt to negate the divine idea of life. To be restored to the natural state, we must focus on the innate divine perfection of the Christ ideal which is our true nature.
• The Regenerated Body is a direct result of the baptism of the Holy Spirit. Holy Spirit baptism can be evoked by the intensity of the desire to know God through prayer and meditation.
• The Regenerated Body is immune to age, disease, birth and death. It is the Christ Body--your real body.
