Christian Mystic Training Program

Christian Mysticism Study and Practice

There is one within you, one who is sacred, one who is pure, one who would not defile God's time, which He has given you in this body, by thinking the wrong kind of thoughts. That holy one, which is your Higher Self, is constantly wanting to motivate you. All of its powers, which are really super powers, are there for you to tune in on.
bioReverend Flower A. Newhouse, Your State of Consciousness
