Church Questions and Answers

The Discourses were the earliest recordings of the teachings of the Living Light philosophy that were given through Mr. Goodwin's mediumship. There are 65 Discourses and all are available in either The Living Light or in The Living Light Dialogue Volume 1. Here is an example of that type of class.

The Sayings of the Living Light Philosophy


Self conscious is the ego clothed in the garment of pride and crowned with the crown of self-pity.

***

 

Once I was an apple
And then I was a tree
And when I am an apple tree,
I’ll no longer be just me.

 

Dreamer, dream a life of beauty before your dream starts dreaming you.

 

***

 

Be grateful when you ask and receive not, for then you are truly receiving.

 

***

 

By their deeds, not their creeds, ye shall know them.

 

***

 

The uneducated ego hears only the echoes of its own unfulfilled desires.

 

***

 

Man can only be affected by that with which he is in rapport.

 

***

 

What of thy heart freely gives,
In God’s love forever lives.

***

 

 

I’m only a witness of time passing on,
A witness of things that have come and gone.
Never the jury or judge will I be,
For I am the witness, the life, and the tree.

Affirmations


The Total Consideration Affirmation

I am the manifestation of Divine Intelligence. Formless and free. Whole and complete. Peace, Poise, and Power are my birthright.


The Law of Harmony is my thought and guarantees Unity in all my acts and activities, expressing perfect Rhythm and limitless flow throughout my entire being.


Without beginning or ending, eternity is my true awareness and sees the tides of creation, as a captain sees his ship.


As the Light of Truth is sustained by the faculty of Reason, I pause to think and claim my Divine right.

Right Thought. Right Action. Total Consideration.

Amen. Amen. Amen.


             The Healing Prayer

I accept that the Divine Healing Power
Is removing all obstructions
From my mind and body
And is restoring me
To perfect health, wealth, and happiness.
My heart is filled with gratitude
For the Divine Law of Acceptance
That is healing both present and absent ones
Who are in need of help.
Peace, the power that healeth,
Is guiding my thoughts, acts, and deeds
As God and I go hand in hand
Living a life of joyful abundance.

             The Controlled Spiritual Environment Affirmation

You are in a controlled spiritual environment of truth and

freedom

Where peace and harmony reign supreme.

Be awake, be aware, be alert.

Your purpose of being is freedom from what has been.

Thoughts of self are foreign to this environment.

Take control of your mind and experience the joy of living.

 

                                                 The Laws Be
Our being is the consciousness, Truth

Holy be the identity

The joy of life

The totality of Acceptance

In mind as it is in heart

Grant us the Light

Our daily sustenance

And forgive us our has-beens

As we forgive those has-beens who tempt to steal our joy

Free us from the romance of self-love

Deliver us from the service to the false king of shadows

For Light is the kingdom

And the power and the glory forever

Peace be, the order of Divinity
