IS THERE A PERSONAL DEVIL? – 6
As mortals, we need to discern the claims of evil, and to fight these claims, not as realities, but as illusions; but Deity can have no such warfare against Himself. Knowledge of a man’s physical personality is not sufficient to inform us as to the amount of good or evil he possesses. Hence we cannot understand God or man, through the person of either. God is All-in-all; but He is definite and individual, the omnipresent and omniscient Mind; and man’s individuality is God’s own image and likeness, — even the immeasurable idea of divine Mind. In the Science of good, evil loses all place, person, and power. (Eddy, Mary Baker, No and Yes, p.23:20-2)
