Church. In the same way that she ex-
pected her followers to demonstrate the
divine fact Of ever present health, just
so she laid upon them the onus of demon
strating ever present divine law. She also
laid upon them the restriction of not in
terfering with the government of that
Church In any human way, because she
had no faith in human ways and means.
In. fact, Mrs Eddy realized so clearly
the necessity for demonstrating divine
law In her Church and in human affairs,
that she devoted one of her books en-
tiEely to the subject, and this book is
known as the Manual of The Mother
Church, the First Church of Christ, Sci
enlist, in Boston, Mass, Mrs. Eddy
knew that the bylaws In this Manual
were divinely inspired and that they
were therefore unalterable. She writes
of this book: Notwithstanding the
saeriligeoSs rn'th Of time, eternity awaits
our Church ~ nual, which will maintain
Its rank as H. the past, amid ministries
aggressive ami active, and will stand
when those have, passed to rest THE
First Church of Christ Scientist & Mis-
cellany, page 230, la. The demonstra-
ton of divine Law by the individual Is
the only pure democracy, for in 1t every
man has an equal right to bring into
operation true law and power through
his unlimited God given ability to express
the divine Mind, God, as the result of his
spiritual thinking or OF having the Mind
OF Christ. This demonstration of govern
ment through spiritual idealism alone can
deliver humanity from war, distrust
among nations, greed, hatred, injustice,
and other national and class dangers
and divisions. TIE individual who recog-
nizes and lives the divine fact that God
Is Love Is praying Alright, and his prayer
will remove hate and war from among
men, just as surely as light destroys
darkness. Until men recognize and live
these eternal facts, war, sin, disease
death, unrest and evil of every kind will
continue among mortals.
CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
LIBERALISM OF JESUS.
my friends, we Christian Scientists
are declaring no new and strange doc
trine to you, we are simply reiteratlng
that the spiritual idealism Of Christ
Jesus is real and true, that it is scien
tihc in the highest sense, that it is truly
theological and infallible in its healing
erect. Christian Scientists have, in fact
learned that the only way of deliveranc
from evil or mortal woe of any kind is
spiritual thinking Of the divine idealism
which Jesus revealed to mankind. You
may not at this lime he ready or willing
to accept or to admit these things, hut
want to say to you with all respect, but
with absolute assurance, that you and
every human being must eventually &C
cept, live, and prove this teaching, for
there is no other way to salvation and
en- or Of being freed from mortality.
Let me therefore advise you to study
the Christian Science textbook. Science
and Health with Key to the Scriptures,
by Mary Baker Eddy, and see II 1t does
not make the Bible a new book, a more
sacred book TO you.
