the mountains, and upon every high
hill: yea, my flock was scattered
upon all the face of the EARTH and
none did search or seek after them.
For thus saith the Lord God;
Behold, /, even l, will both search
my sheep, and seek them out.
And they shall no more be prey
to the heather, neither shall the
beast of the land devour them; but
they shall dwell safely, and none
shall make them afraid.
Thus shall they know that the
Lord their God am with them, and
that they, even the house OF Israel,
are my people, saith the Lord God.
And ye my flock, the flock Of my
pasture, are men, and | am your
God, saith the Lord God. ezekiel

Paul, with spiritual illumination
Of the allness of Spirit, God, cried
to the world of dreamers, awake
thou that sleepest, and arise from
the dead, and Christ shall give
thee light" Awaking to the real
ity of his spiritual identity and
relation to God, he rebelled
against the tyranny and torture
of the carnal, material senses, or
the belief of life in matter, and
left this denunciation Of the false
product of Adam-Eve: 20
wretched man that / am! who
shall deliver me from the body of
this death ?'-who shall deliver
me from this material body of
sensuous material generation?
Romans vii, 24.) The develop
nent of Pauls spiritual sense re-
vealed to him the cause of suffer-
ing. sorrow, and death, and he
chronicled his condemnation of
the claim of power opposed to
God in the following words:
> AS in Adam all die, even so in
Christ shall all be made alive.
(I. Corinthians XIV, 22.)
To be carnally minded is death;
but to be spiritually minded is life
and peace. (Romans viii, 6.)
Thus he denounced Adam-Eve's
race. John, the Revelator, under
stood the secret Of his Masters
teaching, viz, that Mind, Spirit,
God, is omnipotent Life and Love,
the only real, eternal cause, the
only creator, the Father and
Mother of the universe, including
every idea, or child, from the in
finitesimal to the infinite. There
is but one creator,-infinite Spirit,
and one universe, composed of in
| finite ideas, namely, God and His
| Christ. Each individual idea, or
embodied life and love, is forever
unfolding under the operation Of
Spirit, developing from glory to
glory, revealing the infinite possi-
bilities of the man of Gods Great
ing, who is forever governed by
the law of Spirit, the Principle Of
being, the eternal | AN.
Mary Baker Eddy, the Discoverer
and Founder of Christian Science
and author Of its textbook, Science
and Health acith Key TO the Scrip
tures, tells us, "all causation was
Mind, and every effect mental
phenomenon" (RetroSpecti0n and
| Imtrospection, p. 24.) Then we
logically infer that man, created
by Spirit, God, is immortal, and
is held forever in the eternal arms
of Life and Love, who feeds,
clothes, and environs every child,
or idea, which composes His body,
manifestation, or universe.
The frst-born of God, the
Christ-man, is the Head Of the
body. Christ Jesus understood
his nativity. He taught and
proved the power of his spiritual
individuality, by healing the sick
or destroying false mental hallu-
cinations,-by feeding the hungry
multitude, by walking the waves
and calming the fears Of his ter
rified disciples; by raising Laz-
arus and commanding him to
come forth from the grave, and
finally by overcoming, for him
self, "the last enemy"-so-called
death. Triumphantly he emerged
from the tomb, having attained a
glorious victory over "the king OF
terrors"-death.
To-day, mankind is yielding to the
pressure Of Gods irresistible law of pro
gression, or embodiment. Humanity Is
fast awaking from the mesmeric sleep OF
the Adam-Eve generation. The God
impelled, or the seekers for the de-
monstrable Principle which Christ Jesus
proved, are apprehending their divine
possibilities and are beginning 70 under
stand the import OF Johns words, This
il life eternal. that they might know
Thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ
1.-THE Christ mani, whom Thou hast sent
John xvii, 80
In this era, at his second coming,
Christ is calling loudly TO humanity to
awake from its self-inflicted discord,
fear, limitations. "chaos and old night"
Many are shaking off the lethargy of
