!XSXSXSXs!SXSXS)(SX3 In order to rrasi life's reality as God
I - ! . . H manlfestlnr himself as activity and as
creator, ii is wnai we au sirive tor,
and shall the more nearly attain as we
cease to look for it in matter; and find
t In mind. I
God is truth. We know that 'without
truth nothing could exist. To ; know the
truth about truth does away with every
imperfect, untruthful, or ungodly thought
or deed and Its penalty, and discloses the
path leading to salvation, which is nar
row only to those who want to go astray.
God and love are one. It Is this right
sense of love which makes the sunshine
within, no matter how dark and drear
the human environment may seem. By
it we are taught how to seek our own
in another's good, nd to love our neigh
bor as ourselves. 1
Perhaps it seems very abstract to Say
that God and principle are one, and yet
it is true. Christian Science teaches us
the vital necessity of takingj spiritual
reality out of the Abstract ini order to
make practical use of it in meeting our
daily needs. It reveals the Immutability
of spiritual law, proving the changeless
ness of God, and consequently a change
less man; a creator and creation always
In agreement ; changeless love, change
less truth, changeless life, and. there
fore, no hate, no lie, and no death. This
teaching Is a radical departure from that
given by dogma and creed., We need no
human opinion or belief to find the
"way." In Christian Science we have no
creed and no dogma, but we are taught
to follow the Lord and master in not
only His words but In His works. Only
complete and absolute following of Jesus
Constitutes real, pure, dominant, selfless
religion, that which satisfies and reaches
us in every human need, enabling us to
stand and to . see the glory of God re
vealed, even in the socalledi physical
man and universe. i
God and mind are one. There has
been much controversy amongst those
who do not call themselves ; Christian

Board of Leetareahio of The Mother Cnnreh,
Thm Fiint nhnreh ot Christ. Scientist, ia Boston,
Maaa., waa dpi l Tared last Sunday afternoon in tho
Jamea John bista aehool. under tna anapiees of
Serenth Church of Christ, Scientist (St. John
Christian Science Vas first brought to
my attention in the fall of 1884 and
under - the following i circumstances.
About half my life up to that time had
been spent in bed. The physicians all
said I had been brn f with an Incur
able organic disease,! and that tt was im
probable that I should live to reach man
hood. Their statements seemed about to
be proved true when), through a case of
healing. Christian Science was brougnt
into our home. This led to my having
Christian Science treatment so success
fully that three months later our family
physician said a miracle had been per
formed and: that I Waa absolutely free
from any physical disease. n
Because - of my condition, ana as a
preparation for what was deemed Inevit
able. God had been explained to me far
more than is usual with a small child,
and the statement frequently made that
He sent sickness and suffering : as a
chastening and purifying preparation for
the Joys of the kingdom oi neaven.
Nr-turay, however, the only thing I
thought of was the suffering.; and when
I was told that God caused it a terrible
sense - of fear - and I helplessness arose,
when love and trust should have been
present. We can never love nor trust
anything of which we are afraid ; there-:
fore the thoughts about ;God were locked
inside my consciousness, because or my
fear of giving them utterance. The name,
and not the nature of God, then s now, j
was all that most people knew; so my
surprise was great and unqualified when
I : learned ; that the! healing work In
Christian Science is all accomplished
through a right knowledge of God ; that
there is nothing peculiar or secret about
the work done, nor Is the ability to do it
confined to a select few ; it is to be ac
quired through growth in grace. In fact.
Christian Science gives humanity a clear
apprehension of the birthright of man. of
how to gain it, and how to use, it.
. Christian Science unfolds to its stu
dents that knowledge of God which
keeps one well mentally., morally, and
physically, and shows that Ignorance of
Him is the procurer) of sin, sickness and
death. It teaches thit regenerated think
ing means regenerated living in all ways.
It reveals through an endless, infinite
vista of Christian idealism, God en
throned and omnipotent, omnipresent.
and omniscient, and the fact that one
mar intelligently' call upon Him in any
time of 'need, and always find Him right
at hand, ready to heal and save. This
teaching brings God to us as a real
presence, instead of an ephemeral hope,
and so establishes the fact normally and
naturally that He has dominion over all
things, including the ills' of " the flesh,
and will destroy all evils, whether they
present themselves as mental, moral or
physical, when He is intelligently asked
to do so. j -
It has been said that the Christian
Scientists are too familiar with God.
They are familiar with God because.
knowing Him to be farhat He is, knowing
Him to be both theh Father and Mother
of all His children, they go to Him wltn
all their troubles, sure that His love and
wisdom will dispel tjhem. It Is just, how
ever, in this connection to. say that no
people on earth so venerate, worsnlp ana
adore Him as do Christian Sacienusis
and this Is true because He never fails
them in their extremity,
We are told In th Bible that we must
be regenerated. Regeneration is first
mental, and Is followed by the outward
results as a natural consequence. It is
very practical to say you cannot think
right and do wrong1, nor can you think
wrong and do right. If we will gain the
right knowledge of God. and man's re-
lationshio to Him. land cling to it, we
shall alwavs be well. ' We must De
obedient in all things to the law of God,
or good, as He is called in the Icelandic
translation of the Bible, because it is
our duty . to see tnat i nrist is uiwq
above human sense into spiritual realiz
ation, that all mankind may be drawn
unto Him. and find the freedom promised
them.
The marvelous life) and works of Mary
Baker Eddy, the discoverer and founder
of the Christian Science movement, its
forever revered leader, and the author of
its textbook "Science and Health with
Key to the Scriptuifes.T have destroyed
the darkness and mystery heretofore
surrounding God arid Christ Jesus, and
will literally, to quote from one of her
poems. "lift the shade of gloom and for
mankind make radlant room" "in the
life and the love of t our Lord " In
"Science and Health" and all her other
writings, Mrs. Eddy has given us th
spirit of the word of God as He revealed
it to her. After the Revelation, came.
she tried and tested it in all ways and
neaiea uie sick in innumerable instances
with the knowledge of God which it gave
to ner, until, when she did give it to" the
world as it w given to her, she did
not ask mankind to accept a faith with
out f works, but gave them a glorified
faith, merging into understanding be
cause of the works it accomplished. ,,
.Among the, most illuminating things
Mrs. Eddy has written in "Science and
Health" are the synonyms for God.
These synonyms so bring out the nature
and character of God. so completely
prove that He everlastingly Is, so bring
out His glory and majesty that obedi
ence to the command to worship Him in
or as spirit and truth becomes natural,
and we innately become better men and
women because we know how, spiritu
ally. If Christian Science revealed noth
ing more than this, it would eventually
heal and save all mankind.
In considering tnese synonyms we
need to realize that Christian Science
teaches that there are not two kinds of
love, one material and one spiritual, but
claims that air the real love there is.
eternally exists ; and it is in this man
ner f that Mrs. Eddy uses all the
synonyms. "
God is life life that has no beginnlnr
ana no enalnr. It I tha n,ani..i.
u wcraity. i nm Human sense has noth
mg io do with life, and must be changed Scientists over this basic statement in
Christian Science, - though why '- there
should . be is incomprehensible. Mrs.
Eddy has advanced no new fact in this
statement, , but has put into modern
language the fact which John speaks of
in his gospel. The first two verses in
the first chapter of John are as follows :
"In the beginning was the word, and the
word was with God, and the word was
God. The same was in the beginning
with God." A simple analysis will show
the correlation between this quotation
and Mrs. Eddy's when she says that God
and mind are one. What is the "word"T
It is the expression of the thought which
precedes 1U And what is thought? it
is the expression or activity of the mind
which thinks it- And so we can state
that it logically is as correct to say, in
the beginning was mind, and mind was
with God. and mind was God. The same
was in the beginning with God. When
we are willing to accept the fact that
God and mind are one, then we let "that
mind be in us which waa also In Christ
Jesus" ("Science and Health,? p. 497).
and the result Is th accomplishment of
the works Jesus did and told us to do.
We cannot think wrong, and ' conse
quently cannot do wrong, when we know
that the mind "which was also in Christ
Jesus'? does the thinking, if we let it.
If we hold all the time in thought the
meaning of reality, as it is taught by
Mrs. Eddy, we will realize our ability to
think real or godlike, truthlike, or life
like thoughts, because we are clothed
and in our right mind, and the result is
that we find salvation has come Into our
midst.' i '
SALVATIOK i
When we have gained a right sense of
God, we find we have begun to under
stand what salvation is and from what
we are to be saved. Fundamentally, sal
vation Is having our thought so regen
erated by a right spiritual sense of God
that we know there is and can be no
such thing as a power apart from uoa.
When we have learned that God is mind ,
we find we are no longer in bondage' to
a finite, corporeal misapprehension about
him, and we cease our effort to ldeailzi
the so-called human man and call it
God. In other words, we stop striving to
find a God made in the Image and like
ness of a human being, and turn our
thoughts In an endeavor to find the man
made In God's image and likeness. Sal
vation means a complete cleansing from
all thoughts or deeds which seem to
Justify sin, disease and death,' and a
mounting up on the wings of faith until
the vision of the almighty God unfolds In
us, faith ripens Into understanding, and
the translation of man and the universe
into the realm of spiritual reality t
accomplished.
THE BIBLE
During this address you have heard
the Bible mo frequently referred to and
quoted from that you will certainly
realize how we Christian Scientists ven
erate and study It, and Row absolutely
we know that its teachings, spiritually
discerned, constitute the law of life unto
all God's children.
Had Mrs. Eddy not been 'a profound
and persistent student not merely a
reader of the Bible, she could never
have had the revelation Christian Sci
ence ia It waa her abs6Iute trust in
and acceptance of all the promlaea in
the Bible which kept her on earth when
no material method would suffice. After
her healing she spent years In a de
termined effort to find the truth which
had- raised her, clinging to the glimpses
of light which came, even as did Jacob
to his angel visitants, until these pure
lmpartatlons from God became a revela
tion of his Immutable nature and power,
and then she healed others, even as she
herself had been healed. In other woios.
the Spiritual teachings found in the
Bible which -Mrs. Eddy discerned, are
the sole" and only foundation on which
the Christian Science movement stands,
spreading its branches like the tree of
life over all creation, with its leave its
teachings ready at hand for the healing
of all mankind. 11
