ACTION STATIONS

From the December 1944 issue of The Christian Science Journal


ACTION stations! Whatever the device used to proclaim it, this command known to all men in the service is a peremptory, insistent call, demanding instant obedience. Today Christian Science sounds the bugle call of Truth, arousing human thought and summoning it to take the necessary action in proving the unreality of evil by understanding the allness of God, good. Mary Baker Eddy writes in the textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" (p. 223): "Peals that should startle the slumbering thought from its erroneous dream are partially unheeded; but the last trump has not sounded, or this would not be so. Marvels, calamities, and sin will much more abound as truth urges upon mortals its resisted claims; but the awful daring of sin destroys sin, and foreshadows the triumph of truth. God will overturn, until 'He come whose right it is.' "

At this time of national crises and world change, Christian Science calls to action those men and women everywhere who have gained from this Science the understanding of God's omnipotence to take their stand upon this fundamental fact and prove the claims of evil unreal.

Because God is All-in-all there is, in reality, no realm where good does not reign, no creation but that spiritual universe and man created by Love, no activity other than the operation of divine Principle. Abiding in these truths enables us to discern the fact that evil, being without space to occupy, without life, intelligence, or power by which to act, cannot hold sway; its claims are false. This is the action station to which Christian Science now calls us and through the occupation of which healing will flow to humanity.
