THE RESURRECTION AND THE LIFE

From the April 1893 issue of The Christian Science Journal


The following is editorially submitted in view of the coming Easter time.

Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me though he were dead, yet shall he live. —John ii. 25.

What is life? The ordinary definition of it is, in a general sense, that state of animals and plants, or of an organized body in which its natural functions and motions are performed, or in which its organs are capable of performing their functions. In animals animation, vitality, and in man that state of being in which the soul and body are united. This is the lexicographical definition of life. It reflects the ordinary and generally accepted conception of life.
