■“ -1 Lesson - Sermon In a l l
Churches of Christ. Scientist, on
Sunday, March 10.
The Golden Text was, “Ha bath
shewed the*. O man, what Is good;
and what doth the Lord require of
thee, but to do justly, and to love
mercy, and to walk humbly with
thy God?” (Micah >:8).
Among the citations which com­
prised ths Lesson-Sermon was the
following from the Bible: “What is
man, that ihou are mindful of him?
and the sou of man, that thou visit-
est him? Thou madest him to have
dominion over the works of thy
hands; thcu hast put all things un­
der hts feet” (Ps. 8:4,6).
The Lesson-Sermon also included
the following passage from the
Christian Science textbook, “Sci­
ence and Health with Key to the
Scriptures,” by Mary Baker Eddy:
“The human triad will sometime
rise above all material and physical
sense, exchanging It for spiritual
perception, and exchanging human
concepts for tha divine conscious­
ness. Then man will recognize bis
God-given dominion and being”
(p. 531).
