This classification has been the source
,of much misconee tion, misrepre
ton and ignorant ridicule.
Christian Science does not deny that
all these appearances seem real to our
.sense-c Consciousness. It does not treat
them as merely imaginary, as has been
incorrectly stated by some of it's critics.
But itsseeks to define and classify them
with scientific accuracy. And it finds
from actual experience that this classif-
catlon is absolutely Indispensable to;the.
performance Of its practical works. It
finds that Jesus taught and proved the
ilonsreaity of the 'appearancessw which he
overcame. II afnds that Paul had the
same classification in mind when he
wrote. Of the things which are seen
as being temporal and the things
which are not seen as eternal. It finds
that this classification is the only one
which can possibly harmonic with the
IIScriptural statement that God saw that
every tnlpg winch ne had mace was very
