PREFACE


JAMES ALLEN is one of those who has entered the Kingdom. His messages come to the world-weary as a benediction. In his thoughts they find that which brings them surcease from sorrow. He is a man who has the cosmic sense. He sees the working of the law. He realizes that the only sin is Ignorance and that the greatest virtue is Wisdom. He knows, too, that none of us is fit to judge others. We may only judge ourselves. James Allen does not seek to create a cult. All he aims to do is to live the Christ life in the busy world. This he does by rendering service. Allen is one of those. who realize that the only true religion is the Religion of Service. He knows that the Carpenter was scientifically right when he said in the long ago: “The greatest among ye shall be your servant.” And in this book of inspiration the author aims to teach men how they can best serve.
