Scientist

Tomorrow's servics in the Christian
Science Church will deal with the sub
ject of death, and its forerunners. sin
and sickness. 1t is taken for granted
that If there were no sin in the world
there would he no sickness. and conse-
quently no death. The Bible states that
death came by sin. The logical conclu-
sion is that sin leads TO sickness and
sickness to death. 1t is the teaching of
Christian Science that death is not the
gateway to heaven; If II were, then
every body should be In a hurry to die.
1t Is also maintained that God docs not
kill a man in order to give him eternal
life. Let the wicked forsake his way,
and the unrightcous man his thoughts. -

Why Sunday Is
The First Day

His excellence, the Apostolic Dele
gate in a special communication to The
Times, gave the following reasons why
he approved of the effort being con-
Quoted by The Times in the interests
Of Sunday church going. which con-
sists of a series of half-page articles
containing reasons why people should
attend some place of worship on Sun
day. These articles are TO begin on
saturday, the 18th, and continue
writes:
We know by the light OF our reason
that there is an obligation for man to
adore his Creator, God Almighty. Nat
UraI law requires that every human be
ing shall devote some part of mis- time
TO acts of divine worship. but ii does
not fix or determine any particular
time for the fulfllment of this obliga-
ION. For the people of Israel in the
old Law. there was a specified time
Tor it. because God Himself cond,
srended 10 appoint day on which they
we're TO discharge this duty toward
their Maker. He set apart the seventh
nay Of the week for this purpose in
Cummemoration of the day on which he
I"sted from the work OF creation.
ruent Of this obligation was changed by
the Apostles from the sabbath, or the
s'Nenth day of the week. To Sunday. or
the first day of the week, primarily to
sommemorate the resurrection of Jesus
christ who early in the morning on
the first day of the week arose. glorious
and triumphant, from the dead. Hence
II is that, in Scripture, the first day Of
the week is called the Lords Day.
ApOC.. lilo
Because il was on this day that the
Apostles received their commission, as
Apostles. from Jesus Christ. with tn,
same power and authority which ne, as
man. has received from His Father 'As
the Father has sent Me-" He' said To
them. so / send you John. xx:2D:
and because IL was on this same day
that they received from Christ the pow
'r of fOrgiving sins. II was also on this
same day Of the week that the Holy
Ghost came down upon the Apostles, and
that the faith and law of Christ WAS
for the first time solemnly published to
the world by them.
The manner in which Christians are
hound to keep holy the first day OF the
week consists in their abstaining from
all unnecessary servile work and in Oc-
'upying themselves with some positive
PCt Of divine worship
Since the law of God n this matter
is, therefore so clear, and since the de-
termination of the time for the fulfill
ment Of this duty has been reasonably
hanged from the day Of Saturday to
that of Sunday, it is very much to be
desired that all who claim to be Chris
'ians should faithfully discharge their
duty in this regard. So much, at least.
Is their duty of conscience
From the faithful observance Of Sun
day the commonwealth. as well as the
individual derives much good, both of
the spiritual and of the temporal ma
Cure. And hence IL. is that, in view of
this good, society should be greatly con-
cerned in enacting laws for the OBJ
servance Of Sunday. and most careful in
seeing that they are put into practice"
