REALITY TO FACT
Question—Please explain the difference between a fact and a reality.

ANSWER—Back of all actuality, or fact, is reality, out of which the form and action come. The actuality of God's nature is the fact of His expression in His creation. Reality corresponds to the Abstract, the Great Potential out of which all form emerges. The concrete is the objective universe with all its activities and forms.
The life at the center of all created things is the reality of those things, but the thing is the evidence of that life's presence—the thing is the fact. Reality and spiritual fact are not synonymous terms because the spiritual fact is held in solution, as it were, suspended within the Great Unformed Reality. Its projection sets it whirling in the universe of form, and we call it a fact. All facts have form, but "back of the apparent IS the Reality."

FAITH IN TREATMENT
Question—How can I bring myself to the point of being able to give a good mental treatment when I doubt my ability to give a treatment because I do not seem to have faith enough in myself? (page 13)

ANSWER—What is it you need to have faith in, yourself, your treatment, or the principle which you seek to demonstrate? How can you fail to give a good treatment when you understand that the power of a treatment lies in the fact that you are surrounded by a universal principle which executes the treatment? The only faith you need to have in yourself is the realization that the treatment is given according to law —the faith, then, is not in yourself, but in the law. "Be still and know that I am God."
