There is only one Mind—the divine Mind. The word God comes from the Anglo-Saxon word for good; so, good is Mind and good is the only Mind. God is right consciousness and God holds the right idea of everything s/he creates and sustains—i.e. of everything that is real. If God is all then any other power must be a supposition, an assumption, a false belief, a misapprehension or a misunderstanding.
Since God is infinite Mind, an evil consciousness, called a devil, cannot be Mind, and cannot have intelligence or reality.
If God is infinite power, there can be no evil power. If God is infinite Mind, there can be no evil consciousness or devil. If God is infinite presence, there can be no lurking presence of evil. 2+2=5 cannot be real and cannot be a part of the principle of mathematics and cannot exist. So it is with evil. Evil can have no place in the divine Mind and cannot exist as a part of the divine Principle.
Saying there is a devil is like saying there is a principle of anti-mathematics which is trying to get us to make mistakes in arithmetic.
If you believe evil is real and is a power, what does that do to the Unity statement, "There is only one presence and one power in the universe and in my life, God the good, omnipotent?" It makes it meaningless.
