FROM the TEACHING of JESUS
By Ernest Holmes
Why Jesus Had Such Power
"In this book no attempt is made to discuss all the sayings of Jesus. He lived in a world of spiritual realization far beyond that of which the average man has any understanding. As spiritual things must be spiritually discerned, so the full meaning of his sayings can never be clear to us until we have attained a consciousness equal to his. But in the record of his sayings there is much which bears witness to our own belief, and, no doubt, could we penetrate the meaning of his teaching, we should have a perfect explanation of our own philosophy.
Jesus discerned spiritual truth. Why or how we do not know, nor does it make any difference. The world has not produced another like him and, until it does, he must receive a unique place in the history of human character.
Man Shall Not Live by Bread Alone (Matt. 4:4)
What did Jesus teach? "It is written that man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God."
Who eats of bread alone, will continually hunger. To the physical benefits of the human board must be added the spiritual strength of divine wisdom."
