A large nnd appreciative audience
listened to the lecture by Charlos 1.
Ohrenstuln, 0. 8. II., momber of tba
board of lectureship of tba mother
church, tho Flint Church of Chrliit,
Scientist, In Boston, at the opera
house Ut night. P. A. l)aonaull
Introduced tho tpeakor, whose lec
ture was as follows:
The greatest Hngllsh writer, Shake

All of ua would probably agree that
we desire everything that la uacful.

not tlHHlre anything uaelnaa, harmful,
or bad; consequently, the quoatlon,
How may the one, the desirable oc
currence, 'be Increased In our ex
perience, and the other kind decreas
ed or eliminated: woum not oe ai
all new or startling to anyone, and a
correct answer to It would certainly
be of Interest and Importance to us
all.
One Mind or Principle
If thinking, as haa been said. Is
the cause of every result, what kind
of thinking Is the cause of koocI re
sults, and what kind of thinking Is
the cause of bad results?
If we turn to the textbook of our
Insnlred religions, the Bible, we find
Ita first teaching to be that In the
very beginning God made all that
was made, and that all that He made
waa not only good, but very good. If
we take this teaching tother with
what haa been said. It would certain
ly mean that, everything being the
product of thinking, everything good
must be the prodmt of God's think
ing, and what Is called Cod must be
and la that which alone Is aibln to
think. 4!lnd. with everything that
It Kood due to His, Mind's, thinking.
Now let us turn to what la com
monly called science. One of the
meanings of this word is. "The know
ledge of principles and causes." Prin
ciple means that which la ultimate,
basic, that which la first or primor
dial, and therefore the first cause,
In other words, as Cod Is the begin
ning of all In theology, eo Principle
1s the basis of everything In Science.
It Is that which was In tho begin
ning, the source or origin or an.
Now. taking this together with our
first proposition, that nothing Is but
thinking makes It so, we again find
that everything being the product of
thinking, and everything being the
product of Principle, everything must
ibe and Is due to the thinking of
Principle, and Principle like God
must ho and is the prlinnry, the ul
timate, consciousness, or Mind.
Prom Ihe two foregoing deductions
it will be seen thst 'pure religion or
Christianity, and pure "knowledge
of principles and causes," or Science,
are not contrary or antagonistic to
each other, but Identical; that by
Christian Science they are reconciled,
and that tholr Identity or samonens
is found .In Christian Silence and
only In Christian 8-lonce, which
tenches .Jarnt what 'has been stated
about Cod, just what baa been atated
about Principle, and that God and
Princlnle are one: that In the bealn-
nlna- God. Principle, made all that
waa made: that all that He made
waa good: that all that Is good must
have, baa, purpose; that, having
purpose, it must be due to thinking,
which could not ibe the result of any
thing but iMInd: that Mind, there
fore, must be and Is God, or Princi
ple, the primordial cause of all.
In Christian Science, then, we
have one "Mind, one Principle or
mum of all that made all, and of
necessity .Mind, or intelligence, made
all good; for to have made aught
otherwise, this great and only cause
would not have been Mind, or wiei
II mines
But here It may be asked. Do pre
vainnt theories theology, the natu
ral sciences teach this? And If
not. are theee conclusions warrant'
rt? Frankly, it must tie aald that,
as yet. they do not. It should be
nMnit. . however, that Christian
Science baa already caused marked
' phunrM dn the thought of mankind.
In the teachings of theology and the
sciences. In fairness to the more
Advanced theologians of our day snd
to the most advanced natural scien
tists, It must be said that their
teachings no longer oppose those of
Christian. Science as they formerly
did. The more advanced theologians
no longer teach that God la corpo
real, nor do some of the most-advanced
natural scientists any longer
teaoh some uncreated, hypothetical
"Urstoff," protyle, or atom to be the
v ultimate of all. They recognize that
In the ultimate everything must and
dons reBolve itself not 'Into a dew,"
but into states of consciousness; that
the ultimate of everything miiBt be
thought stuff, not matter-stuff, In
order to be capable of translation
Into thought; that everything must
have Its beginning In Intelligence In
order to be intelligible. To deny
that consciousness, or iMInd, was In
the beginning would ibe to deny
source for the Intelligence which w
express, the Intelligence which every
thing in nature manifests.
But granted that the unity of Mind
or Principle, and so of cause, Is still
donled, are we to bid revelation, Tea
son, demonstration, halt until the
schools approve thorn? Go to the
thousands who have been restored by
the simple truth that 'has been stnt
ed, the truth that God Is the only
Prlriclnle. or .Mind, and In proof of
it they need but paraphrase Bartl
mamiBV statement: Why, herein Is
marvelous thing, that ye say
know not whether thla Ibe Christian'
Hv, whether this be Science, and yet.
whoreus, we,' were caraally- minded
sorrowful, suspicious, fearful, dis
couraged, unfortunate, degraded,

aged, uplifted, surcemrful, well. Mare
coincidences these, as the legalized
sohool would have us believe? li
so, how many incidences does it
take to establish the operation of a
law or a aolonllflc fact? For there
are thousands of Just such coinci
dences, and I aland here as the re
sult of one of thorn.
But what is this Mind, or Princi
ple, called God, which of necessity
thought and projected all in the be
ginning, and pronounced His every
projected Idea good, very good, leav
ing nothing for atiy other mind to
think or to project? Is It a more
philosophic abstraction? What are
the so-called "iiiluds many" which
arrogate to themselves originality
and power to think good and to
think evil, and to enforce this think
ing and to make it manifest?
Source of Ihictrine
On page 110 of the Christian Sci
ence textbook, "Science and Health
with Key to tihe Scriptures, Mrs.
Eddy tells us, "In following these
leadings of scientific revelation, the
Bible waa my only textbook ;" and on
tin ira 4Q7 ft I hi mmA fonnk. thA flml
one of the religions tenets of Chris
tian Science roads, "As adherents of
Truth, we take the inspired Word
of the Bible aa our sufficient guide
to eternal Life."
Let ua go to the Bible, then, from
which are drawn the entire teachings
of Christian 8vlence, the book upon
the teachings of which Christian
Scientists depend for all physical aa
well as spiritual needs. Ift us take
the Bible, then, together . with Its
commentary, the Christian Science
textbook, and let us see what that
great book, which has withstood all
of the assaults of the ages, teaches
God to be, snd to be able to do. Let
us see what the one and only 'Mind,
the source and origin of all, Is. and
what It does for all. Is it the "Rock"
upon which all may safely build,-
"the stone whloh the builders re
jected," or Is It a rope of sand;
clple recognized that "God ;s love,"
and so proclaimed God.
Christian Scientists, who are striv
ing to be the true Israel, contenders
for the one true power, like Israel of
old, like the disciples of old, are
taught by Science to translate thing
or mere symbols Into thoughts, the
thoughts or Ideas which are the real
itli of all symbols. They do this
because they recognize, aa haa been
said, that everything indicates pur
pose, an operation of consciousness,
and every purpose an idea; that Klo
hlm, the power that was in the begin
ning, must be the Principle, the
'Mind, of all that it purposed ajid pro
jected, of the universe, Including
man, Christian Scientists recognlxe,
therefore, that this Mind Is their
Mind, this power is their power, this
existence, or life, is tbelr life; that
this "I am" or universal ego la their
true ego or self-hood, and so on. Yes,
they recognlxe that this one Father,
meaning provider, protector, guard-
Ian, monitor, and guide, Is their
Father.
Human Consciousness
But here the question may arise,
Of what avail Is all this, what prac
tlcal value haa all this to the indi
vidual, to the mass; how can it be
appliod?
Christian Science does not theo
rise; It Is practical, demonstrable.
tat us look at what humanity calls
Its mind, the so-called human con
sclousness; of what la that compos
ed? Much that la good; more that
Is bad. The good may be termed
spirituality or unselfishness; the
bad. materiality or selfishness
Where the one Is, there love is; mere
courage, hope, confidence, blessed
ness, Joy, peace, freedom, endeavor,
achievement are. It Is "the way,
the truth, and the lire" of Jeeut and
of every true man made manifest.

Illblo Terminology 1
"All are familiar with the fact,"
snys a learned writer, "that to the
Hebrew of Old Testament times, the
name of a person, place, or thing
was not Intended to he merely dis
tinctive, that ia, for the purpose of
Identification, as with us. It was
rathor intended to Indicate or re

that name because he supplanted his
brother at his very birth." Bethel.

Jacob's dream, was so named be

lxrd Is In this place." and so on. "In
deed this vividness of the perception
of a characteristic," says the same
rlter, "presented that characteristic
as sn equivalent of the thing itself.
Thus a special or new sense or reve
lation of God, meant the formation
of a new designation or synonym
for Him." Although metaphorical
or noetic. In many Instances, these
ynonyms or additional names for
God are seen in the light of Christian
Science to be truly descriptive of
His nature and attributes, thus In'

idence, and care for us. To become
acquainted with the Bible teaching of
God. then, aa Christian Science en
ahles all to do, and compels Its ad
herenta to do, not through fear or
threat but because of complete re
liance on Him, is to learn to know
Him as the Inspired Bible scribes
knew Him. to love Him as they loved
Him, to have more confidence in
Him, to trust Him as they trusted
Him, to have more of that peace
which all desire, and to be better
able to demonstrate His truth or re
ality, Ills power and beneficence.
In this Book of books we find no
word that meant to the Hebrew of
Ita day wbat the word God haa been

of other climes and of more recent
times. Indeed he was forbidden to
