CHRISTIAN SCIENCE CHURCHES

Christian Science Church Ser
vice Report for Sunday, May IL,
1941. Subject: ADAM AND FALL
EN- MAN.
Golden Text: Romans 5:17-If
by one mans offence death reigned
by one; much more they which re-
ceive abundance of grace and of
the gift of righteousness shall
reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.
A Bible Citation from the Les
son-Sermon: John 8:12&51-Then
spake Jesus again unto them, say
ing, | am the light of the world:
he that followeth me shall not
walk in darkness, but shall have
the light of life. 81. Verify, verify,
l say unto you, If man keep my
saying, he shall never see death.
Correlative from the Textbook,
Science and Health with Key to
the Scriptures" by Mary Baker
Eddy: Life is, always has been, and
ever will be Independent of mat
ter; for Life is God, and man is the
idea of God, not formed materially
but spiritually, and not subject to
decay and dust. The great
truth in the Science of being, that
the real man was, is, and ever
shall be perfect, is inconrtrovert-
ible; for if man is the image, re-
fiection, of God, he is neither in
nor subverted, but upright
and Godlike.
