rances only, and we become convinced of the existence of _an immanent divine._ "In Him we live and move and have our being." Our space is but a limitation of infinite "room to move about": "_In my Father's house are many mansions_." Our time is but a limitation of infinite duration: "_Before Abraham was, I am_." Our sense of space is the consciousness that we abide in Him; our sense of time is the consciousness that He abides in us. Both are modes of apprehension of divinity--growing, expanding modes. In conceiving of a space of more than three dimensions we prove that our relation to God is not static, but dynamic. Christ said to the man who was sick of the palsy, "Rise, take up thy bed and walk." The narrow concept of three-dimensional space is a bed in which the human mind has lain so long as to become at last inanimate. The divine voice calls to us again to demonstrate that we are alive. Thinking in terms of the higher we issue from the tomb of materialism into the sunlight of that sane and life-giving idealism which is Christ's.
