brother and my sister, and mother
The Master everywhere taught that to
do Gods will constituted freedom;
for he told those who believed that if
they continued in his word its truth
would make them free; and that who
soever committed sin was in bondage
to sin. 1t has ever been bondage to
be sick and sinful, and to stop being
sick and sinful is to enter into the
glorious liberty of the children OF
Cod
II is not maintained that the doc
trine of the unreality of matter, which
is unquestiouably logical and true, has
as yet been fully demonstrated. Any
one who is seeking help in Christian
Science need not trouble about it. 1t
Is much more important that you
should recognize that God is willing
and able to help and to heal you
Later on through the study of Chris
tian Science His nature and allness
will begin to unfold to you, and you
will see that the unreality of matter
is the natural coroiiary.
The many Texed questions concern
ing salvation and touching the pur-
pose of divine Love toward His chill
dren are answered through the spir-
itual embodiment which comes through
the study of Christian Science. Those
questions which the searcher for
Truth had been told were too diff
cult to be answered, or were myster-
les which God in His inscrutable wis
dom had kept from him, are clearly
and satisfactorily answered and he
finds them to be things which divine
Love intended he should understand.
Now you may accept the statement
of Christian Science as good logic,
but you must apply it in order to
know that it is true We have shown
that Mind is ever present and that
man is the idea of that Mind. To
what can we apply this fact?
Thought Filled With Love
Are you believing that sorrow and
worry and discord are real and that
you are suffering from them? Let us
dare to say that Mind knows no such
thing, and that you and |, Gods IDEAS
can manifest only the joy and peace
and harmony of the Mind in which we
live, for if we keep our thought filled
with Truth and Love, we shall hu
manly manifest the divine Mind il
| harmony and peace.
! We have believed in and suffered
/ from sins-hatred, envy, deceit and
other evil beliefs, but in spite ol
| their seeming reality, let us deny
! them any place in our thought for il
| realityy we are Gods children, Minds
ideas, and by filling our thought witt
this fact we shall humanity manifest
more of the love, purity spiritual
| power, and holiness of Spirit.
Have you been troubled in you
business? The application of Chris
| tian Science to business is not mys
teriOus or occult neither is it to be
confused with will power or sugges
ton 1t is the application Of thought
OF honesty, mutual blessing gratitud'
and generosity far above the stand
ard of thought the business world ha
generally known. and this has brough
many successful business condition
where before there had been business
! failures.
Those wrong physical condition
which have come through the admis
sion of the worlds thought of ma
terial law of hereditY are healed ant
annulled when we learn that the onl.
Inheritance we have is of God ant
hence good "One is your Father
which is in heaven" Those wroni
condition which have come to III
through our admission of thoughts o
contagion and infection are heale
when we learn that nothing bu
blessing can come to us through cor
tact with Gods children, with Mind
ideas.
Mind Provides Abundance
There are myriads of difficultie
that have come to us through our az
ceptance Of the worlds thought tina
air, and food and water,-thos
things which seem necessary to on
material sense of existence at thi
time,-are filled with lurking curses
that at every turn some unseen foe i
likely to strike us down All thes
wrong material conditions are don
away with when we learn that Mind
ideas live in the atmosphere of low
divine" and that, Mind provides it
ideas with an abundance of spiritus
sustenance. Jesus said Il have mea
to eat that We know not Of
So there is no condition from whic
we have suffered individually, whetl
er it be mental or moral or physica
which Christian Science does nt
heal.
