THE allness of God and the perfection of His universe are clearly set forth in the Bible. These eternal truths are explained and unfolded in "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, and will at some time be acknowledged in gratitude by all mankind as they are today by students of Christian Science.
As the understanding gained from the study of this book replaces the old material theories that have been found puzzling and unsatisfactory, we shall be enabled to conquer the impostors called disease, poverty, sin, and even death itself. The solution of any troublous situation may be found within the covers of this precious volume, when the search is sincerely pursued, for it leads us to Principle, God, as the only cause, and to His unfailing law of protection and loving-kindness. Our beloved Leader tells us, however, that the book cannot be appreciated by a mere perusal. It must be given deep consideration; it must be compared with the teachings of the Bible, and thus perceived to be inspired and adequate to meet every need.
When we study and endeavor to understand a Lesson-Sermon in the Christian Science Quarterly, some sentence, which perhaps has been read superficially many times before, may be so clarified that an entirely fresh thought on the subject unfolds, that brings freedom in place of bondage, courage in place of fear, and peace where turmoil had seemed to reign. Christian Science instructs us how to entertain these angels, thoughts of God, and thus gain a sure foundation for right thinking. We then bring this light to bear on conditions of the home, business, health, and on world affairs. We should watch and pray that mental laziness, procrastination, or the demands on our time of mundane things, does not hinder the growth that will surely result if we apply the Science of being to each problem that presents itself.
