Speaker Stresses Spiritual Forces "Regardless of inventions that facilitate the production of the things we need; they offer nothing wherewith to implement men's desire to live in unity and peace with one another." So stated Paul Stark Seeley, Portland, in a talk Thursday evening at the First Church of Christ, Scientist here. Speaking on the lasting freedom, health, and satisfac tion that are available to all, Seeley explained that chemi cal, electrical and atomic forces are powerless to over come fear, worry, grief, anger or hate. God naturally expresses Himself, he said, in limitless individual expressions of posi tive mind, the highest of which is man. Jesus proved, he added, that by accepting the natural, intelligent, spirit ual forces as the very sub stance of his life, the individ ual can demonstrate the great fact that deific mind is the only power and that this pow er is ever at hand to heal. The prayer that heals brings one into a clear sense of one ness with God, Seeley said. St. Peter's Tells Sunday Subject "Our Wonderful Nobility" is the sermon topic for Sun day's sermon by the Rev.
