All real being is in God, spiritual and perfect. Apart from the divine Mind and its ideas nothing really exists. The spiritual understanding of God and man as revealed in Christian Science heals the belief that the carnal mind, so called, is causative. The Mind which is God originates all that is made, and spiritual understanding reveals this fact. If man could really possess a dual nature, a nature both material and spiritual, he would represent a kingdom divided against itself, which cannot stand.
Christian Science comes to dispel the contradictions of mortal mind and reinstate the assurance of one spiritual existence. It comes to detach sense from Soul, person from Principle, and matter from Spirit.
This sifting process is taking place in the field of consciousness, and nothing can resist it. It is the inevitable result of the discovery of Christian Science, which declares the oneness, wholeness, and allness of God, good, and the nonexistence of evil. Practical application of this great truth heals the sick and reforms the sinner. Every case of sin, disease, or death is the result of the acceptance of two opposite definitions of existence, the material and the spiritual.
