Entering the Kingdom

Foreword In seeking for pleasures here and rewards hereafter men have destroyed (in their hearts) the Temple of Righteousness, and have wandered from the Kingdom of Heaven. By ceasing to seek for earthly pleasures and heavenly rewards, the Temple of Righteousness is restored and the Kingdom of Heaven is found. This truth is for those who are ready to receive it; and this book also is for those whose souls have been prepared for the acceptance of its teaching. James Allen. The Soul's Great Need I sought the world, but Peace was not there; I courted learning, but Truth was not revealed; I sojourned with philosophy, but my heart was sore with vanity. And I cried, Where is Peace to be found! And where is the hiding place of truth! Filius Lucis
