OF being. and does not teach eterna

on the contrary II teaches that all mus,
come TO Truth at last.
God ~ the all.powcrful one. How
then could there b. any other power?
How could man. having no power apar,
from God. ain against God and be- for,

! All we have and are is from God
tho divine source of being. and II is
self-cvidcnt fact that whatever OF
good there In for us In the great un.
changeablc is waiting for us now.
hence the farther We go astray. and
the longer we stay away. the greater
will be our suiYerings and the longer
we will have them to bear.

no other power can be. no other power

Therefore God and heaven are. and

nut neither Satan nor his angels are
personal devils. Satan is the lying
spirit. or spirit that lies; which is
but the testimony OF the physical
senses which never tells the truth;

Christian Science being independ'
entity right. Il can stand alone; and
Christian Scientists are growing into
independence: not what the world
calls independence, however, for the
Christian Scientists independence is
absolute dependence upon God. They
are learning to make practical the first
commandment. "Thou shalt have no
other gods before me-"
They are learning more and more
to depend upon God--the one, the only
giver--in sickness and In health. In
pain or In pleasure: In times OF plenty
or In times OF want: learning ut all
times and under all circumstances to
follow the Christ through evil report

Christian Scientists are those who.

this great Truth. are practising It upon
themselves and others. who ask OF
