    is injured by the stumbling? Who doubts? Who is wronged by his doubts?
    Who fears, and who is made wretched by his fears? We see who is wrong, and
    who controls the writing. They who need a repentance. They who would make
    the wisdom of heaven conform to their own folly. They who would sacrifice
    the independence which is essential to progress to the idol of sectarian
    selfishness. They who would not repent, because their sectarian selfishness is
    dearer to them than the wisdom of God.
    The wisdom of God will not receive such into its mansions They will go to
    their own circle. They will not do their duty to others as God requires. They
    will do what wisdom in ignorance justifies. To that circle they belong. In that
    circle they live, and must live, till repentance shall prepare them to do works
    congenial with spirits of more elevated minds. It is not for them to judge as to
    what circle they belong. There is a Being whose wisdom can not be deceived.
    He will judge as no mind in the body judges, and he will reward every
    232 LIGHT FROM THE
    mind as its condition shall require. He sees the good and the bad, the right and
    the wrong, in human conduct. As soon might a cable pass through the eye of a
    needle, as for mind to wrong mind without a just recompense of reward. And
    what is true of mind in the body, is true of spirits in all circles of this sphere.
    There is one law of progress, in all spheres, and he who disobeys that law
    must receive the reward. There is no respect of persons with God. There is no
    partiality for professions. All are without excuse who neglect the
    improvement of their minds. All are neglecting the improvement of their
    minds, who reject the wisdom which spirits reveal. This revealment is not of
    men it is of God. It is by his direction. We are his servants. Who, then, will
    repent and be saved? Who will reject, and be unhappy? Who will write and
    believe? Who will write and condemn? Who? He who is wise will receive,
    and he who is foolish will reject.

    FORGIVENESS.
    FORGIVENESS is not selfishness. It is not unwise. It is not works of injury. It is
    not violation of law. It is not offering encouragement to vice. It is not with
    holding justice to offenders. It is not secreting another's crimes. It is not
    concealing another's wrongs. It is not in words, but in deeds. Deeds of right
    remove wrongs. When wrongs have been done, the doer needs forgiveness.
    He needs the removal of the wrong. He may not ask forgiveness, but his good
    demands often what he does not seek. He may not demand good, but his
    happiness demands it. It demands what he does not ask the forgiveness of
    sins. When he demands good, he is forgiven. He is removed from his sins, and
    his sins are remembered no more. He may revert to them, but he remembers
    not to continue in them. He remembers them only to loathe, only to abhor, and
    only to refrain from them. He demands others to do as he has done, "go and
    sin no more." When be demands others to put away their wrongs, he asks
    them to forgive his wrongs. When they do not put away their wrongs, they do
    not forgive him; and when they do not forgive him, he is not forgiven.
    Forgiveness is to take away wrong. To take away implies a taker. It supposes
    another person is engaged in the removal, since a thing can not remove what it
    has no will or desire to remove. The wrong must be overcome. It must be
    removed, or he will suffer in the wrong. If it must be removed, who will
    remove it? Will the doer remove his
    234 LIGHT FROM THE
    own wrongs? That is repentance. That is reform. It is the work of reformers.
    They abandon their wrongs. They forsake their sins. They cease to do evil,
    and learn to do well. Is that to take away? Is it the same to put away, as it is to
    take away? Does not one imply an act of the possessor, while the other
    implies an act of another? The removal separates the possessor from the evil
    removed. When he is separated from the evil, repentance is wrought. When
    repentance is wrought, forgiveness is demanded. When forgiveness is
    demanded, it is not always extended. When it is not extended to the penitent,
    the penitent suffers suffers not on account of his own wrong, but on account
    of the unforgiving wrong of another. While he feels the unforgiving wrong of
    another, he will suffer as others suffer who are aggrieved. Forgiveness is,
    therefore, the taking away of grievance. It is an act of the injured party.
    When a wrong is done, the doer needs repentance. When the doer repents, be
    needs forgiveness. But of whom? Of the person injured. The person wronged
    is the one to forgive. He takes away the wrong of censure. It is not in the
    power of the guilty to forgive censure. He who censures must take it away, or
    it will remain. The act of removing condemnation is forgiveness.
    Condemnation is what sin receives. When the sinner repents, he ceases to do
    evil. When he ceases to do evil, it is unjust to condemn him. When it is unjust
    to condemn him, it is just to forgive him. When it is just to forgive him, it is
    unjust not to forgive him. What justice requires, law requires; and what law
    requires, it is a sin to withhold. Hence, the obligation of forgiveness is binding
    on men. It is binding on the person who has been wronged and if be will not
    forgive, he is worse than we will write. He will forgive, when he understands
    his
    SPIRIT WORLD. 235
    duty. He will forgive, when he sees the wisdom of forgiveness. He will not
    judge wrong, when he sees the judgment is a wrong to himself. He will
    change the decision. He will forgive the sin. He will do justly and love mercy.
    He will remember the iniquity no more. He will love the offender as a brother.
    He will confide in him as a friend. He will respect him as a citizen. He will
    uphold him in righteousness. He will do him good, and not evil. He will not
    condemn or censure him. He will not detest or bate him. He will not scorn or
    abuse him. But he will advise and counsel him. He will be his friend and not
    his enemy. He will take away the wrong of unjust judgment, and the
    forgiveness will be felt by the person forgiven. It will create mutual kindness.
    It will remove mutual distrust. It will take away mutual wrong. It will
    overcome mutual fear. It will restore mutual happiness. It will make mutual
    friends. It will give mutual peace. It will advance mutual progress. Both minds
    will feel happier. Both hearts will rejoice. Both souls will do right. Wrong is
    removed. Sin is taken away. Jealousy disturbs no quiet. Revenge has no
    habitation, and love sweetens the, cup of forgiveness.
    Hence, the taking away of wrong is relief. It is not only relief to him who
    takes it away, but it is relief to the mind from which it is taken. He feels
    relieved of the burden of censure and condemnation. He sees a brother who
    asks forgiveness, and he gives the needed demand. The minds of the giver and
    receiver are blessed. The law of affinity is recognized, respected, and obeyed.
    But while the mind forgives not, while the mind is not forgiven the wrong of
    mutual unkindness, mutual distrust, and mutual suspicion, will continue to
    annoy and disturb the social good will of minds, which might otherwise enjoy
    the tranquillity of wisdom.
