Soul" is the subject of the lesson

for God. for the living God"
Among the citations which comprise
the lesson-sermon is the following from
the Bible: The eyes of the Lord are
upon the righteous, and his ears are
open unto their cry. The Lord is nigh
unto them that are of broken heart;
and saventh such as be of a contrite
spirit. The Lord redeemeth the soul of
his servants, and none of them that
trust in Him shall be desolate" Psalms
Xxxiv.15 g. 22). The lesson-sermon also
includes the following passage from the
Christian Science text book. Science
and Health with Key to the Scriptures"
by Mary Baker Eddy: I'VE cannot deny
that life is self sustained, and We should
never deny the everlasting harmony of
soul, simply because. to the mortal
senses. there is seeming discord. 1t is
our ignorance of God, the divine
Principle. which produces apparent dis
cord, and the right understanding of
Him restores harmony. Truth will at
length compel us all to exchange the
pleasures and pains of sense for the joys
of soul" page 390).>
