By this we express our belief in a supreme impersonal power, everywhere present, manifesting as life through all forms of organized matter, called by some "God", by others, "Spirit" and by Divine Metaphysicians, "Infinite Intelligence".

A correct understanding of the laws of Nature on the physical, mental and spiritual planes of life and living in accordance therewith, will unfold the highest aspirations and attributes of the soul, which is the correct function of a true religion.

A life here and hereafter is all one life whose continuity of consciousness is unbroken by that mere change in form whose process we call death.

Spirit communication has been in evidence in all ages of the world and is amply recorded in both sacred and profane literature of all ages. Orthodoxy has accepted these manifestations and has interpreted them in dogma and creed, and in terms of the supernatural. Divine Metaphysics accepts and recognizes these manifestations and interprets them in the understanding and light of the Natural Law.

This precept we believe to be true. It points the way to harmony, peace and happiness. Wherever tried, it has proven successful and when fully understood and practiced, “will” bring happiness and peace to man on earth.

Man himself is responsible for the welfare of the world in which he lives; for its welfare or its misery, for its happiness or its unhappiness – and – if he is to obtain heaven upon earth, he must learn to make that heaven for himself and for others.

Individually, man is responsible for his own spiritual growth and welfare. Wrong-doing must be outgrown and overcome. Virtue and love of good must take their place. Spiritual growth and advancement must be attained by aspiration and personal striving.

Vicarious atonement has no place in the philosophy of Divine Metaphysics. Each one must "carry his own cross" in the overcoming of wrong-doing and replacing them with the right.

We discard entirely the terribly wrong and illogical teaching of eternal damnation and in place thereof, we accept and present for consideration of thinking people the thought of the continuity of life beyond the change called death.

A natural life – where the opportunity for growth and progress to better, higher and more spiritual conditions are open to all, even as they are here on the earth plane of life. We accept no such teaching as a “hell fire”, but we do teach that sin and wrong-doing will necessarily bring remorse and suffering that would be difficult to describe in words – and which can only be relieved by the individual's own efforts if not here, then in the hereafter. If we make our own lives better while here and that of our neighbors happier, we shall unfold that happiness on heaven or earth, which we shall carry with us into the spirit world.

We thus affirm our belief in and acceptance of the truths which are contained in the Bible and assert that healing, prophecy and mediumship are neither unique nor of recent occurrence alone, but they are universal ever lasting and have been witnessed and observed in all ages of the world.
