the Scriptures, Mrs. Eddy's legacy
TO suffering and sin sick humanity,
enables one to find the spiritual
truths in the Bible, simpliGes and
elucidates their teachings and makes
practical the example of our Master
while on earth. 1t does not super
csde nor does it take the place Of
the Bible, but makes it more desired
and studied than ever before.
The message of Christian Science
to mortals is the message of hope,
the message of activity and the
message of joy. 1t is the glad
things that at last we known how to
worship God and how to "Walk in
the Spirit" that We may not fulfill
' the lust of the hesh' but "press
toward the mark for the prize of
the high calling of God in Christ
Jesus" ''For of him, and through
him, and to him are all things to
whom be glory forever"
