What christian
SCIENCE means
W. D. MCCraCkan Speaks to
Large Audience at Opera
House.

tian Science in the world, drew
very large audience to the Hawaiian
Opera House last night and gave a
clear and interesting exposition of
Christian Science in popular style
that was easily understood and fol-
lowed. Mr. McCrackan is finished
speaker and held the attention of his
audience throughout
His lecture was as follows:
WHAT Is GOD?
Every thinking man finds himself,
sooner or later, face TO face with the
all important aud all absorbing ques-
ton. What Is God?
In summarizing the teaching Of
Christian Science for the student,
Mrs. Eddy, the Dlscoverer and
Founder of Christian Science, gives
the answer to that question in her
work Science and Health with Key
TO the Scriptures" God Is incorp-
orcal. divine, supreme infinite Mind,
Spirit. Soul, Principle, Life, Truth,
Love" (p. 1861.
Upon a correct comprehension of
God depends the happiness. the peace,
the true prosperity, aud the true
usefulness Of mankind. May, more,
and this Is point which may seem
novel to many, christian Science
| shows that the trne health of mau-
Kind Is determined by their under
| standing of God and His Christ. Not
only is this correct and scientific
knowledge proved to he beneficial to
f, man in his daily avocations, in his
home, In his business, in his individ-
nal affairs and In his participation ii
the affairs of the nation, but II exerts
q beneficial effect upon the physical
condition of men, women. and chill
dren, and heals sickness as well ds
sin and sorrow.
To know God and His Christ Is not
therefore, merely to learn the doc
trinal points In some barren and de
isultory theology, to set up dry ped
antic postulates, but. as Jesus ha,
said, to know God "is life eternal.
