The New Thought Simplified

I affirm spiritual freedom.

I sever the chains of appetite, passion, and traditionalism, and realize the liberty of my real self.

I deny the slavery of sense. I repudiate the bondage of matter. It is well in its place, but I renounce its supremacy.

I bury all negation, weakness, and fear.

I enthrone and embody the positive, living truth.

I am strong in the Lord.

I have growth, energy, vitality, and power.

I have love, light, harmony, and courage.

I am wise, strong, and free.

“Know ye not that your body is a temple of the Holy Ghost, which is in you?” Its inner court is the banqueting-house of the divine and the human. There are two in one, and one in two.

We are transformed by “the renewing of our mind.” Mental renewing is thinking upon a higher plane.

I am happy. I am content.

As a spiritual entity, I fear not animal magnetism; I have no belief in ill luck. I demonstrate over external circumstances. I deny all malign astrological influences, and triumph over adverse heredity.

I deny that things are against me. “All things work together for good to them that love the Lord.”

I conquer discord without by harmony within.

I walk by faith and not by sight.

I am full of faith.
