Bile, the principle of mathematics, is
with us in thought or we could not
think mathcmatically. Likewise when
we think rightly of divine truth, life,
God-whch Christian Science
makes possible today, truth is present
with us in consciousness, God with us.
st. Paul wrote to the Ephesians (4;6)
of the one God who is Gin you all, -
omnipresent. He has but to be Known,
and as by knowing truth we reflect
Him, and it is by this right knowing
reflected. in consciousness and brought
to bear upon our problems.
When an i'll or sin is healed in Chris
tian Science, it is not the thought of
the Christian Scientist which does the
healing but the spiritual truth which
be knows and applies to the human
error. The power is in the truth it
self and not in the human will. Jesus
said, "Ye shall know the truth, and
the truth shall make yOu free.
This definitely distinguishes Chris
tian Science from hypnotsm, magne-
tism, or mental suggestion of any
form.
It should be borne in mind that
Christian Science healing is not mere
method requiring simply the entertain
mcnt and repetition of certain
thoughts Being scientific. it calls for
accurate, logical, metaphysical reason
ing and analysis; it nccessitates intel
ligent discarnmcnt and correct APP
I plication of its principle; but above all
it demands that clear consciousness of
4 the allncss of Cod spirit, and the
nothingness of His opposite, matter,
which spiritual sense alone apprehends
and which divine love alone reflects,
for love is the real healer in Christian
Science.
Ny acquaintance with Mrs. Eddy for
many years and my association with
her on many occasions enables me to
speak of her exalted Christian char
acter.
Fidelity to her highest concept of
right, conservation to the work divine
~ demanded of her, spiritual wisdom
in leading and directing the Christian
Science movement, unfeigned love foI
God, for His Christ and for all man
kind; these were dominant traits OF
character in that great, yet gentle
woman who discovered and establish
ed Christian Science. The modern wise
men should say of her as was said OF
old:
GIVE her Of the fruit of her hands
let her own works praise her in the
gates prov. 3l;3D.
The fact that Christian Scientists d,
not vet do all the wonderful work,
Jesus did is II cause for regret but no
for encouragement or criticism. w,
are glad that Jesus S work prove,
Christian Science to be true, and tina
Mrs. Eddy rediscovercd the science o
Christian healing and has given it {,
the world. This healing is possible
in proportion to our spirituality.
