The Secret of Imagining In almost every particular is the world about us different from what we think it. Why then should we be so incredulous? Life calls on us to believe not less, but more.

The Secret of Imagining


In almost every particular is the world about us different from what we think it. Why then should we be so incredulous? Life calls on us to believe not less, but more. The secret of imaging is the greatest of all problems, to the solution of which everyone should aspire, for supreme power, supreme wisdom, supreme delight lie in the solution of this mystery.

If you have solved the mystery of imagining you have found Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is defined for us in scripture as “The power of God and the wisdom of God” (First Corinthians 1:24). As we are told in the eighth chapter of the Book of Proverbs,—and Wisdom is speaking now, personified as a little child:

 

“When He laid out the foundation of the world
I was beside Him like a little child
I was daily His delight,
rejoicing before Him always
rejoicing in His inhabited world,
delighting in the affairs of men.
He who finds me finds life
He who misses me injures himself;
All who hate me love death.”

—Proverbs 8:29-31, 35, 36

 

So find that child that is the symbol of Jesus Christ, who is the creative power and the wisdom of God. Believe me when I tell you that this Jesus Christ of scripture is your own wonderful human imagination. “By him all things were made, and without him was not anything made that was made” (John 1:3). He is in the world, and the world was made by Him, and the world knows Him not.

Look into the world and name one thing that wasn’t first imagined. You name one thing that does not now exist in your imagination—just name it. Name anything in the world that does not now exist in your imagination: “All things exist in the human imagination.” (from “Jerusalem” by William Blake)

“God is man, and exists in us and we in Him” (from “Annotations to Berkeley” by William Blake). The eternal abode of man is the imagination; and that is God Himself. Try to disprove it.
