CHRIST'S RELATION TO GOD AND MAN

From the December 1887 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Here are two extracts from a new book, called The Christian Revelation of God the Basis of True Philosophy, written by Elliot Stock:

As Son of Man our Lord claimed not equality with the race, but unity; so he claimed not equality, but that which is greater than equality, oneness with the Father; for whether as between man and man, or man and God, equality has in it the idea of separateness. The highest reciprocity of Love is unity or completeness. In his matured discernment of the divine origin and essential nature of manhood, he revealed the fact that in true Being the Eternal Father and the Son are one,—not merely in himself as the first who became conscious of the fact, but in everyone born into the world.
