I say that I have evidence of God. Well, I have evidence of SOMETHING that is invisible and powerful and is apparently conscious and ably responsive. It ACTS, so it must be there, er, here.

I understand what Neville Goddard meant by saying nothing in the Bible is literal-historical (my words, not his), and yet every word of it is true. The reality the Bible is about is on a higher level, in spiritual dimensions of invisible forces; they are literal-historical. What we have got in the Bible is baby stories. We can't understand squat of what is going on in the spiritual dimensions, and couldn't do anything about it if we did. But THEY are real and true--they are real things. Our stories just ILLUSTRATE what is going on amongst the invisible.

The thing is, SOMETHING amongst the invisible forces wants me--us--to believe the simple, illustrative baby stories as literal truth, because belief in the stories does something TO us FOR it. Belief is formative, adjustive. It makes us something in nature that we are not otherwise. Conductive? It is something the Spiritual Force wants us to be.
