Excerpt from The Beauty of God: As Revealed in His Works, His Written Word, and the Living Word Through the Ministry of Life and Light and Love The trend of scholarship in our day is looking toward the unseen world, out of which comes the world of the senses. The transformation of the invisible into the visible is SO ethereal that the learned in all countries and in all ages have been divided in their views concerning the real and substantial; some holding that the immaterial alone is real, and others that only the material is substantial. The weight Of authority oscillates between these extreme views. After swinging more than a generation toward the things that are seen, the pendulum Of scientific thought is now moving toward those that are not seen.
