From the September 1892 issue of The Christian Science Journal


ALSO in thy skirts is found the blood of the souls of the poor innocents: I have not found by secret search, but upon all these." Jeremiah.

Thousands are praising God, the Giver of every good and perfect gift," for the exhaustless blessings of Christian Science. Humble, efficient, consecrated workers — healers, teachers and preachers — are many; and, through the word and work of these, others are led out of ignorance of God into the divine Science of Being, or knowledge of God, which is "life and peace" The works of Jesus of Nazareth are being repeated to-day, and his promise to his followers is fulfilled. His gospel is preached: the dead are quickened — made alive; the lepers are healed; the lame walk; the blind see; the deaf hear. The coming of Christ "without sin unto salvation" is recognized, is hailed with joy and gladness; and man begins to see how "all shall know Him, from the least to the greatest." Great is the Good that is again revealed to the world!

"The maximum of Good is always met by the maximum of suppositional evil." Science and Health. Jesus said that "a man's foes shall be they of his own household." This maximum of suppositional evil," these foes in the household," must be unmasked, disarmed and overcome, if the Truth is not to be again nailed to the cross; if darkness is not again to fall upon the" face of the deep." While thousands rejoice in safety, the cry of those innocently astray goes up to the throne of God day and night. "Their shepherds have caused them to go astray they have turned them away on the mountain: they have gone from mountain to hill, they have forgotten their restingplace."
