CHRISTIAN SCIENCE, THE CHRISTIANITY OF CHRIST

[A Lecture delivered at Malden, Mass., April 23, 1901.]

From the December 1901 issue of The Christian Science Journal


The Christianity of Christ: who can estimate its worth? Its Founder was the noblest character in all history. Upon its rolls are inscribed the names of the great and good in all ages. What priceless sacrifices have been laid upon its altars! What deeds of love have been wrought in its behalf! The Christianity of Christ! It is the true "Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world." It is the "pearl of great price," to possess which a man would give all that he hath.

Christian Science has a glad message for all. To those who are dissatisfied, it comes with the gospel of love. It declares that the Christianity of Christ should be the possession of all, and he who is without it lacks the one thing needful. Christian Science comes to the discouraged and disconsolate, and declares that there is hope. It comes to the sick in mind and the sick in body with the glad news that for them there is health and life.

Christian Science is as a grand organ, which giveth forth its sweet harmonies to those only who understand it. I can but place the key of this noble instrument in your hands. If you would bring out its divine harmony you must use that key, study its science, and put in practice what you learn.
