Out of the present chaotic conditions is heard the question, "Where are peace and safety to be sought?"
A complete and satisfying answer to this question is to be found in Christian Science, which reveals God as divine, omnipresent Love, who, being of "purer eyes that to behold evil," knows no element that can result in sin, sickness, or death. Then follows the question, "If this is true, whence cometh evil?" Since it is not embraced in the infinite, omnipotent God, it is an erroneous sense of God and of man's relationship to Him.
On page 201 of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" Mary Baker Eddy says, "We cannot build safely on false foundations." Because the human mind is unwilling to alter its basis of thinking and disinclined to change, it resists the demand to awake from its dream of life and intelligence in matter; it therefore suffers as a result of its false beliefs, and continues to ask why humanity is bound in sin and discord.
