Rev. DR.. Winbigler Delivers
Interesting Sermon.
MAY OVERCOME ALL OBSTACLES
UNIVERSAL Mind, He Says, Is Mind OF
God, and Man Is Capable OF Com
ing in Contact with II and ApprO-
priating Its Gifts-Man Spiritually
the Image of Universal Mind.

THAT mans mind Is a part Of God's s
mind, and that by believing in God and
developing the subconscious mipd. man
may accomplish good and overcome all
obstacles" was the chief point made by
Rev. DR.. Charles +. Winbigler. pastor OF
the First Baptist Church, In sermon
last night
DR.. Wlnbigler took as his text, The
universal mind and how TO come in con-
tact with it and appropriate its great
gifts"
Ee said. in part:
Gods mind is the great mind: II is
perfect, holy. and healthy. Man is splr-
itually the image OF this universal power
and mind. God is the Spirit. and man Is
like the Infinite Spirit
Man Lost His Holiness.
Man lost his holiness in going from
God and disobeyinR Him. but he gets
It back by obedience and returning 10
God. Man, Jesus and God have the fol-
lowing personalities: Man has physical
organism and personality, Jesus had
physical organism. personality. and holi-
ness. and God has personality and holl-
ness Man has a personality that is re-
lated TO God. and as man lost his holi-
ness by disobeying Cod he may be re-
stored % that condition Of holiness by
contact with the Infinite Spirit Mans
mind Is part OF Gods mind. and he
may develop and appropriate what that
Spirit has. such as health, happiness.
and success. but he has 10 come In con-
tact with that Infinite Spirit.
Man has a mind that is helpful In
accepting him 10 this present. material
environment and he has also a mind that
adapts his highest nature To the Infinite.
and can thus come into contact with the
Infinite and universal mind.
The conscious mind recognizes the
outer world and uses the five senses as
channels through which 10 gather knowl-
edge. 1t helps us 10 adapt ourselves 10
our environments. 10 Is dependent upon
the normal functions OF the nervous and
physical systems. It's chief character
istic Is the power 10 accumulate and
utilize knowledge. II has the ability 10
reason. II is the controlling power Of
the psyehical personality. II is capable
Of all forms OF reasoning-inductive. de-
ductive. analytic. and synthetic
The subconscious mind governs and
controls the vital functions Of the body
breathing. digestion. circulation OF blood.
&c. This is done automatically or in
stinctively. II Is the spiritual part OF the
man. II Is related TO and touches the
Infinite Spirit It's most remarkable
manifestations occur when the conscious
mind Is held in abeyance and is controlled
by suggestion
1T bas peculiar powers, such as intui-
ton. spiritual perception. faith. emotion,
and perfect memory. Intuition is the
faculty OF knowing truth and Gods pres
ence as the universal power. Spiritual
perception is seeing God in the world and
in the human life. Faith is the hand
which lays hold OF what the universal
mind has 10 give. and approprlates those
gifts for ones own or another's use.
Mind Is Everywhere.
This universal mind Is here and
everywhere. Your subconscious mind can
come into contact and take just what
you need. The conscious mind directs
like a pilot, but can only go 20 the door
OF the holy temple.
do you need wisdom, purity. power,
peace. health. goodness. love. whatever
It is? Take II and use II. and get the
marvellous results in your life. The In
finite Spirit has shown Us how 10 do
this and all other things. You can over
come sickness. trouble, and everything
by putting your mind. the subconscious
mind. IN contact with the universal mind.
You can get all things from the universal
mind as you get your electricity. by con-
tact.
In many parts OF the world and in
mans history, God has been created In
mans image. but the Scriptural truth is
that man was created in Gods image"
