Thoughts are things

The whole teaching of the Bible is that God is universal Spirit, and universal creation. He creates by the power of His word; this word is the law of His being. Man reproduces the divine nature on the scale of the individual (we are God expressing himself). Man also uses creative power which works through the law of his word (word = thought). From this he cannot escape, he need only use this power constructively and all will be well (constructive thoughts = Good things). If he uses the creative power of his thought destructively then it will destroy.
