In her writings, Mary Baker Eddy alludes to worlds in a plural sense and to infinite space as filled with spiritual ideas. She stresses the infinitude of Spirit and the universe of Spirit and points to the truth that divine intelligence, Life, and Love fill all space, that the universal law of Love is powerful and all-inclusive.
Christian Scientists are grateful that the Christ, Truth, came to this planet through the Way-shower, Christ Jesus, and they are grateful that the discovery of Christian Science by Mrs. Eddy has brought his teaching to light again in our age. These students indulge in no speculation as to the population of other worlds, but they rest in the assurance that no part of the spiritual universe is without Love's representation.
On page 226 of "The First Church of Christ, Scientist, and Miscellany," Mrs. Eddy makes this interesting and enlightening observation regarding cause and effect: "What are termed in common speech the principle of harmonious vibration, the principle of conservation of numbers in geometry, the principle of the inclined plane in mechanics, etc., are but an effect of one universal cause,—an emanation of the one divine intelligent Principle that holds the earth in its orbit by evolved spiritual power, that commands the waves and the winds, that marks the sparrow's fall, and that governs all from the infinitesimal to the infinite, —namely, God."
