TYPES: MOSES, JESUS, MARY

From the April 1893 issue of The Christian Science Journal

Types: "Aggregate of qualities; the representative." Webster.
"For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ." John i. 17


THE moral law, or the Ten Commandments, of which Moses was the type, when spiritually interpreted, becomes the law of Life or Truth which heals the sick on the basis of the one Mind of God, namely, Christian Science.

Jesus, the offspring of the immaculate conception, or the true conception of purity, and holiness said: "Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets. I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill."

He brought Truth to human comprehension by showing through his sinless life that with the right understanding of his Father— Divine Principle—the law could be fulfilled by as many as would follow him,—that is, understand him; for he said, "If ye had known me, ye would have known my Father also."
