Christian Science Lecturer
Declares Age-0Id Claim
Is False.

Or. John NJ. Tut, c. s. B.. of Kan
sas City, Mo, deliVe a lecture last
evening in First Church of Christ,
Scientist, on "christiau Science: True
Ivan gelisnI." lie spoke-to capacity
audience. The lecturer is member
of the board of lectureship of the
mother church, the First Church OF
Christ, Scientist. in Boston, Mass.
and was introduced by Elmer l. Bald
win, first reader of First Church, OF
this city. DIR. Tut said in part:
Let us consider briefly the twofold
aspect OF true evangelism. The Bible
teaches that God is the same yes
terday. and today, and forever.
Whatever deity is, lie always has
been and always will be. Jesus spoke
Of Him as Father as my Father
and as your Father If God is
Father now, He must always have
been Father. your Father and mine.
Hence, not only has God always had
children, bur He has always had you
and me for His offspring. Man, there
fore, antedates Adam. and Adam. rep.
resentiug material man, the human
kind. cannot have been the first man
Moreover, since Adam supposedly had
a beginning and an ending, he could
not have expressed God. who, the
Bible says, is without beginning or
ending. Adam. therefore, could not
have been man at all. True evangcl-
ism reveals the fatherhood and moth
crhood of God (Father- Mother, be
cause within Himself alone the sole
and complete creatorl, and the SON
ship of man, one with the Father
Mother.
Again. the Bible teaches the omni-
presence Of God, and Deity can be
everywhere only as divine principle,
or cause--manifested in effect. AS
there can be no effect without cause,
so there can be no cause without ef-
feet. God and man. Father and son.
cause and effect, are mutually indis-
penSa BILE.
Intelligence Is Creator.
Now Christian Science. in conso-
nance with the Bible. holds 1t to be
elf-evident that the creator of the
universe, including man. is intelli-
Eence, or nina. Jesus said: Cod is a
Spirit. and throughout the Scriptures
spirit and life are Synonymous words.
IT is conclusive then that because God
Is infinite. He must be the Infinite. the
only Spirit, the only Life. the only
Mind.
Christian Science further teaches.
in agreement with the Bible. that Cod.
Spirit, and the things OF Spirit are
present here and now; that they are
not abstract or removed, but con-
crete and at hand. The Christian
Scientist is amused az the attempt Of
physicists to weigh or 20 photograph
the soul. Remember. Spirit and divine
Mind are the same. SO cDirituai things
are diyineIy mental things. and di-
vinely mental things are ideas. Ideas
arc real aud genuine things, but they
are not spatial, nor dimansicnaI. nor
ponderable. The real man, then, is
the idea of Mind, God. Hence he is
divinely mental, or spiritual now, and
