"MORTAL MIND"

From the November 1895 issue of The Christian Science Journal


To none but the practiced ear of the Christian Scientist does the term "mortal mind" convey a sense of a great and crying human need and the fact of a positive limit and circumference of human ingenuity, and an impassable gulf, forever fixed between human and Divine conception; between human theories and systems and Divine Principle. Blind as the world has ever been to the necessity and potency of a fine discrimination between the issues of sense and Soul it is not strange that all hope has been subjected to human conditions and exigencies, and that this "new tongue" should convey to deaf ears many terms they cannot comprehend.
