Then he said to them all: “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow me.” (Matthew 10:33; Mark 8:34; Luke 9:23)

“You have been deceived into believing that you were born of fleshly parents, and that you are subject to the peculiar mental and moral trials and physical ills of your ancestors. The Spirit of truth, which is, yesterday, today, and forever, pure perfection, and which is now present in you, sets you free from this delusion.” (Charles and Myrtle Fillmore, from The Complete Collection: Twelve Books)

“You have been deceived into believing that you have certain traits of character to which you are bound by nature, and through them are confined or hampered in life. You may suppose, for instance, that you are naturally timid and fearful, therefore nervous and unfitted to face the world; or that you are cold and unsympathetic; or that you lack language or expression for your ideas; or that your memory is poor; or that you lack perfection in some other way.” (Charles and Myrtle Fillmore, from The Complete Collection: Twelve Books)
