the latter is simply the fulfillment OF
the former. For twenty-five years
before her healing Mrs. Eddy had
been dcvout student of the Bible.
She was simultaneously healed while
reading in the Bible. She saw as no
other person had seen in this OF any
other age since the early Christian
period, that because the Scriptures
are spiritual they arc for that very
reason practical, and she has pagnl-
fed the teachings of the Scriptures IN
all her works as no other writer OF
modern times has done. In six hum
dred pages of "Scicnce and Health
with Key to the Scriptures" the lit
eral quotations from the Bible aggrc-
gate twenty-thrce solid pages. All
the spiritual wisdom and understand
ing which came to her was from the |
unfolding of Bible truth. Many !
books have been written on the
Bible. The greater part of them arc
called commentaries; little tittingly
applied, for they are comments on
the Bible rathcr than calculations OF
it. Mrs. Eddy's writings open the
Scriptures from the inside out. ON
parc SAT of "Scicncc and Health with
Kew to the Scriptures we read;
"The Scriptures are very sacred. Our
aim must be to have them under
stood spiritually, 1t Is TINS
spiritual percention OF Scripture
which fits humanity out OF disease
and death and inspires faith.
THE TEXTBOOK
II is fitting at this time to say
something about the Christian Sci
once textbook, "Science and Health
with Kew to the Scriptures" by MIS-.
Eddy. This book is not comment
arv on the Bible, but a key to II.
Other writers claim to bring out
treasures from the Scriptures and TO
hand them to US: Mrs. Eddy gives
ms the kew, saying, Open the book
and help yourselves. Any claim 10
excellency can be su'taiteu .h,,
maintained only by resuits-rp
their fruits We shall know them ne
spiritual virility and Illumination
whch the student of the Bible recelv-
es through earnest study OF the
CHRISTIAN Science textbook is undeni-
able proof that the latter IS what Is
claimed for it,-a key to the Scrip
tures. The dominant thought OF the
textbook is spiritual. If anythine
= else is sought in its PAGES 1t Will DC
, unresponsve. To those who are nun
pernp and thirsting after righteous
S ness and to the sick and sinful "he
: arc seekinc. peace, it is as dee" re-
spending unto deep. Simply the reaG
y ING of it has lifted thousands oil SUI
! ferers out of despair. Friends; tn'
man who is really homeslck to know
his heavenly Father, God, IRON
whom he seems to be separated, L

i rain through its teaching, heaiin;

y al who desire them.
y CHRISTIAN SCIENCE HEALING
n What is Christian Science healing
l. II is the overcoming Of disease, D
,e the same method which Jesus cmpio!
ID ed, that is, by understanding an
l. utilizing the infinite mower OF 20

l. lower of Jesus and yet IN ms probe
