Fascinating dreams',

Back to THOUGHTS FOR THE QUIET HOUR

---

Many of the world's old religions and philosophies 
are fascinating dreams, brilliant coruscations, beautiful 
webs of thought, which the best intellect and purest 
devotion had laboriously spun. We dare not depreciate 
them. But there is only one philosophy that is from God. 
"The wisdom of God is wiser than men." 

Greece had her Mysteries, with their esoteric doctrines. 
But these could shed no real ray of light on the awful 
problems of life and of the future. The longed-for 
"mystery hidden from ages and generations" was fully 
revealed and manifested in the person and words of 
Incarnate Wisdom—"I came that they might have life, 
and that they might have it more abundantly.":

"Don't let anyone lead you astray with empty philosophy 
and high-sounding nonsense that come from human 
thinking and from the evil powers of this world, and 
not from Christ." Colossians 2:8
