REASON AND REVELATION

From the June 1942 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Mankind is groping for light on many things, but especially for an understanding of that which will bring freedom and peace to men individually and collectively, for the truth about God and the universe, including man. Many have given up hope of knowing in any degree the truth of real being. Others have accepted, through emotional blind faith, some involved theories which cannot be proved, and which often result in apathy or vague speculation. But now Christian Science has been revealed to the world, and "with signs following"; it is opening the Scriptures and unfolding to every receptive heart the revelation of true being.

The Bible, spiritually understood, informs men of the status and prerogatives of their real selfhood in God's spiritual universe. It abounds with directions for enlightenment, all appealing to receptive thought. The mere reading of the Bible, without sound reasoning on the messages, would still leave their spiritual light and efficacy obscure. Jesus said, "Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God."

It is now the student's privilege to study the Bible in the light of Christian Science, and reason scientifically about the inspired messages which have been too often disregarded and misunderstood.
