Is God infinite? Yes. Did God make man? Yes. Did God make all that was made? He did. Is God Spirit? He is. Did infinite Spirit make that which is not spiritual? No. Who or what made matter? Matter as substance or intelligence never was made. Is mortal man a creator, is he matter or spirit? Neither one. Why? Because Spirit is God and infinite, hence there can be no other creator and no other creation,—man is but His image and likeness.
Are you a Christian Scientist? I am. Do you adopt as truth the above statements? I do. Then wherefore this meaningless commemoration of birth days, since there are none?
Had I known what was being done in time to have prevented it,—that which commemorated in deed or in word what is not true, would never have entered into the history of our church buildings. Let us have no more of echoing dreams. Will the beloved students accept my full heart's love for them and their kind thoughts.
