THIS may seem a small word to talk about, yet it appears to me, there is no word in the human language that means more to the Christian Scientist. The whole effort of evil seems aimed against it.

IS there anything in the Bible or Science and Health to justify the idea that healing is a lower thought in Science, which Scientists outgrow? Is there anything in the example of the Apostles or Jesus that warrants it? As to the example of Jesus, examining Robinson's Harmony of the Gospels, in which the events are chronologically arranged, we find that Jesus healed almost up to the last month of his ministry. This adverse thought may have been occasioned by the fact that healing is one of the first steps to take in demonstrating Christian Science; also by the fact that a smaller degree of spiritual realization suffices, at first, to heal than to teach; but it does not follow from this that the advanced Christian Scientist outgrows healing sickness, any more than the astronomer outgrows arithmetic.

If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him Godspeed; for he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds. 2 John i.

From the Denver Republican, we quote as follows: The Christian Science church on Logan avenue, between Seventeenth and Eighteenth avenues, was dedicated yesterday, services being held both morning and evening. The ceremonies were presided over by the pastor, J.

Having occasion to take an open-air trip after a brisk shower one day last summer, the writer hailed a passing "electric," took a front end-seat, and was soon speeding some little distance out over a broad and glistening river. The smiling blue-and-white expanse above, mirrored on its tranquil surface, momentarily refreshed; but, leaving the fair scene behind, we faced the depressing prospect of an unbroken line of mud threading its way between rows of houses.

Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross and follow me. —Matt.

After an interval of five years, each month of which furnished material for a chapter by itself, I started on my way home from Peru; to save, if possible, the life of my wife who for six months had been very low, and under the doctor's care. On my arrival, I found her much lower than I had supposed; and the consultation of physicians, immediately secured, only made it apparent that she could not live long.

"And they shall come from the east, and from the west, and from the north, and from the south, and shall sit down in the kingdom of God. "— Luke xiii.

It seems to me I have been trying to get rid of mortal mind altogether, which of course is equivalent to getting rid of the mortal body, as they are one and inseparable. This cannot be done while we are on this plane of thought.

Thus saith the Lord, "The labor of Egypt, and merchandise of Ethiopia shall come over unto thee, and they shall be thine. " In the ninth chapter of First Corinthians Paul says, "If we sowed unto you spiritual things, is it a great matter if we shall reap your carnal things?" According to the rule of Christian Science, the price of heavenly riches is the sacrifice of our sense of value in material treasures; for, even while the Scripture abides firm that "The earth is the Lord's and the fulness thereof," doth not Jesus say, "Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also"? The present demands of us every hour, in which to adjust our vision to the perception of Truth.
