Meta. The awakening individual's becoming conscious that life is spiritual and that life only is God's will for man and His gift to man, through I AM, Jehovah, the Christ. This leads to a putting away of the error belief that God--who is life and in whom there can be no death or error--has any part whatever in the death thought or experience. God is life and His will for man is only and always life. "For the wages of sin is death; but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord" (Rom. 6:23).
