Chapter X - Science Of Being
Life the creator
331:1
IV. God is divine Life, and Life is no more confined
IV. God is divine Life, and Life is no more confined
to the forms which reflect it than substance is in its

Divine trinity

VII. Life, Truth, and Love constitute the triune Person
called God, – that is, the triply divine Principle, Love.
They represent a trinity in unity, three in
one, – the same in essence, though multi-
form in office: God the Father-Mother; Christ the spirit-
