TRUE FASTING

From the September 1902 issue of The Christian Science Journal


THE faithful student of Christian Science early learns to regard Jesus as the way-shower and to make his exalted teaching and living, the pattern of his own daily life.

As the self-satisfied beliefs of mortal mind begin to tremble and crumble beneath the inspiration and unfolding of Spiritual Truth, mankind grasps, at first faintly and then with an absorbing sense of satisfaction, the true nature and work of the lowly Nazarene.

To this newly awakened consciousness comes the revelation of the dual nature of Jesus the Christ, Jesus the human corporeal brother who "was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin," and to whom the trials and temptations of the flesh, like our own of this later century, were but the fulfilment of human man-made laws and beliefs which the spiritual law or divine government of God was called upon to subdue and destroy.
