CHRISTIAN SCIENCE CHURCHES
ttlL fa tte r” was the subject of the
1 A Lesson • Sermon In all
Churches of Christ. Scientist, on
Sunday, March 22.
The Golden Text was, “I am the
Lord: that Is my name: and my
glory will I not give to another,
neither my praise to graven Images’’
(Isa. 4 2 :» .
Among the citations which com
prised the Lesson-Sermon was the
following from the Bible: “Tbs
heathen raged, the kingdoms were
moved: he uttered his voice, the
earth melted’’ (Ps. 46:6).
The Lesson-Sermon also Included
the following passages from the
Christian 8clence textbook, "Sel-
enee and Health with Key to the
Scriptures", by Mary Baker Eddy:
“Divine
metaphysics
explains
away matter . . . That matter la sub
stantial or has life and sensation,
is one of the false beliefs of mortals,
and exists only In a supposititious
mortal consciousness. Hence, as
we approach Spirit and Truth, we
lose the consciousness of matter”
p.278).
