which the great spiritual thinkers of
the Bible saw. She climbed the noun

earth" and from that exalted summit
there burst upon her spiritual vision
the absoluteness and perfection OF God
and the unreality of things mortal and
mundane. Because she saw the same
truth. the same pattern, the same
model of thought, which prophet. see.
and Christ Jesus saw. her writings CO.

Scriptures; they give the same spir-

consciousness in that hour Of need was
the result of many years prayer, med

Mrs. Eddy grasped the mighty fact

and that there is no other mind and

cause, God, one effect, man and the
universe. Mrs. Eddy saw also that the

only real Science, which she named
Divine Science or Christian Science. /
True Science is wholly spiritual, and
destroys the human counterfeit science
so far as the latter is based on matter

and because she loved God, she loved
His creation, man. She saw that it
was her duty to present this Science |
Of God and man to the world so clearly
that human thought could grasp ii and
prove it and for this purpose she
labored and loved for almost a half a
century.
She began her work by testing her

HIS DEMONSTRATION OF SUPPLY

his DEmONS IA TON Or SUPPLY
Probably more people worry over the
problem of supply than over any other
problem. If a thousand people taken
at random We're asked, What problem
gives you most concern? - probably a
great many of them would answer
THE problem Of supply" What is
back of the great strikes that have
.convulsed the nation? why are com
merce and trade sometimes cruel and
unscrupulous? Why so much rivalry
between nations for trade? The an
swer is the question Of supply. The
human mind believes that supply is
limited, that there is not enough of
clothing, food and money to go around.
How did Jesus handle this problem?
He knew that all good comes from God,
and ne taught that when men rely on
Cod, their needs will be supplied The
human mind assumes that the question
OF supply is one of things. The Chris
tian Scientist knows that it is a ques-
,tion of thoughts The Masters thoughts
We're up1ifted to God, and the gifts of
God flowed to him freely and spon-
taneously. When pressed to pay trib-
ute to Caesar, he met the demand with
five thousand in a desert place were
hungry, their needs were supplied from
five loaves and two small fishes, and
abundance remained. To human sense,
demand and supply flucturate with the
varying changes of human belief, but
divine Love remains forever the same,
eternaIly gracious, eternally kind, eter-
nally loving, filing to overlooking our
cup Of JOY and supplying our every
need even before we ask Him. He who
holds fellowship with God need not be
in fear over salary or dividends.
THE REAL VERSUS THE UNREAL
Christ Jesus kept clearly in mind the
distinction between what is real and
what is unreal. What is real? God
is real. Gods creation is real. Gods
man is real. Life, Love, health, holi-
ness and justice are real. What is un-
real? Matter mortality, sin, greed
fear, hate, disease and death are un-
real. They are unreal because they
are not Cod-created. They are op-
posed to the divine nature: they are
the fieeting misconceptions of the
human mind, which win inevitably dis
appear when the new heavens and
new earth, wherein dwelleth righteous
ness" dawn upon human thought
Christ Jesus destroyed the unreal and
exalted the real And today the Chris
tian Scientist is faced with the neces-
s1ty OF keeping clearly in thought this
same vital distinction between the real
and the unreal
At times misinformed critics seek to
convey the impression that Christian
Science makes a mistake in teaching
that sin. disease and death are unreal
claiTing that they are terrible reali
ties These errors may seem real to
the uninstructed thought; but they are
not real in the sense that they are not
God-created. No man throughout the
ages has ever been healed OF disease
by declaring its reality. Only through
spiritual perception that disease is illu-
sion because it is not of God can it be
healer.

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE PRIMITIVE
CHRISTIANITY

BY teaching reliance on the omnipo-
tent power and goodness of God,
Christian Science has reinstated prin-
tive Christianity The great Bible
characters from Genesis to Revelation
did not rely on drugs, human strength,
human will, nor human intellect to
guide or save them. Through Spiritual
understanding they rose superior to
the testimony of the physical senses
and overcame them. Time and time
again incidents are recorded in the
Bible where the spiritually minded met
and mastered conditions which the
physical senses said could not be over

is at once evident that when man sees
spiritually he sees differently, thinks
differently and acts differently than
when ne accepted physical sense evil
dence A study of the Bible shows that
under given conditions the spiritually
minded acted differently from those
who accepted corporal sense evidence.
For instance, note the incidents of
the attempted capture of the prophet
Elisha by the Syrian army as it is re-
corded in the sixth chapter of II Kings.
The Syrian army had encompassed the
city by night. The next morning the
servant Of the man of God looked out
from the walls Of the city and saw the
great host that encompassed the city.
The servant accepted the evidences Of
his material sense Of sight and, as the
psychologist says. he reacted to that
sense stimulus. He became fearful He
said to his master Alas, my master
how shall we do?" But the man of

RELIANCE ON GOD TAUGHT IN
THE BIBLE
The teachings of the Bible are per-
feetly clear on this point. over and over
again. the Scriptures call men to rely
wholly on God for every need. Put not

We first the kingdom Of God and His
righteousness" are some Of the adj
monitions Of the Bible. The great diff
Guilty mortals have experienced in the
past is that they have not seen clearly
the difference between relying on
Spirit and on human agencies. The ad-
herents of scholastic theology and the
materially minded have failed to grasp
the real meaning of the First Conn
mandment, Thou shalt have no other
gods before me-" They have not made

between the eternal things of Spirit
and the false evidences of the physical
senses. God is Spirit" as Jesus de-
clared, and man and the universe are
mental and spiritual. But the five cor
poreal senses do not see spiritual
things; to them, Spirit and spiritual
things do not exist; they cognize the
opposite Of spirituality the false belief
Of a matter world and a matter crea-
ton. Seeing only material things, the
objectification Of his own corporal
senses, the materially minded man re-
lies on these instead of turning his gaze
Spiritward and depending wholly on
God. A man has made a great diseov-
cry when he learns to rely on spiritual
sense instead of physical Through
spiritual sense, man learns that he is
immortal and perfect. Spiritual sense
gives a man a correct view Of the uni
verse and of God. The physical
senses give him a distorted view of all
things. They tell him that man is i'm
mortal, physical, subject to sin. disease
and death. This view is temporary and
must yield to the eternal fact that God,

ishable.

of chaos and disorder Christian Sci
.ence accepts and teaches these three
great verities of Spirit, omnipotences
omnipresense, omniscience, not theo-
retically nor abstractly, but as living
realities. and it teaches that in the un
derstanding Of these fundamentals lies
the solution Of all human problems.
Thus IL a Christian Scientist faces
sickness, he relies on the omnipotence
of God to heal it; If he faces a condi-
ton where ignorance prevails, he turns
to God and relies on the omniscience-
the infinite acknowledge of Cfod-to
supply him the wisdom and light to
meet the situation, If evil seems to hold
sway, he knows that God is omnipres
