196 THE THRESHOLD OF EVOLUTION 



he could not understand, but must accept on faith and belief 

 in the Spirit of God the Father and of God the Mother which 

 were to rule him till the spirit of God the Soul should awaken 

 in future scientific ages the yet imperfect wisdom of his under- 

 standing, which was not to become an active or visible force 

 that could influence his will and raise it from an animal to a 

 semi-divine will by the gift, not of divine but a perfect human 

 wisdom of understanding, a result that was not to take place 

 till his mind was capable of doing more than accept on faith 

 and belief, without doubting the mystery of the greatest 

 revelations that have ever, or ever will be given by divine 

 inspiration to the mind of man the conception and under- 

 standing of the divine Trinity of God, Its Personalities and 

 Attributes. 



Until man's mind is sufficiently evolved by the Spirit 

 of the Holy Ghost, granting him sufficient wisdom to 

 enable him not only to conceive and believe in the great 

 mystery of God and His Trinity, will he be able to know, 

 comprehend and understand the full importance of its influ- 

 ences, meaning and actions upon creation. But when God 

 grants him perfect human wisdom, the semblance of which he 

 has up till now alone been able to gain, by seeing its reflection 

 in the silvery lakes of religious inspiration, shining through 

 the eventide mists of superstition and bigotry, yet throwing 

 out the brightest light he has hitherto obtained of virtue and 

 truth, amongst which it has shone as the brightest star re- 

 flected upon the crystal surface of the lakes of past religions. 

 Again, I say, until man could not only see and believe in 

 this reflection, not till his mind could go one better, and com- 

 prehend and understand the true and full meaning and im- 

 portance of this great dogma, and fully understand the 

 mystery of the Trinity of God Almighty and its influence 

 upon creation, then, and not till then, will mankind be able to 

 make his longest step forward, towards the final end of his 

 creation by overcoming the crimes of cruelty, selfishness and 

 injustice, and so learn to live in brotherly Love, Justice and 

 Charity. This is what he has to learn in the coming Epoch 

 of Charity now beginning to dawn on humanity. 



If the Hypothesis that has grown out of my ardent 

 prayer for the gift of " right thought " which gave birth to 

 this imperfect treatise, can help mankind one inch nearer
