GOD'S universe with its scientific order is becoming more apparent to men in these times of research, invention, and religious progress. As human thought breaks away from false beliefs about matter, time, and space, wider spheres of perception and action are unfolding. This earth is not the horizon of knowledge. Wisdom about the heaven's hosts is multiplying. Deeper attention is being given to the spiritual account of creation in the first chapter of Genesis.
As the student carefully searches this initial chapter of the Holy Bible and its scientific interpretation in the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, two facts stand out which are appropriate to the present space age. First, God, supreme Mind, is the sole creator; then, with the conception of each idea there is the launching of it into eternal purpose.
God's creating of ideas of existence, if without accompanying purpose and control of them for eternity, would be fruitless functioning. There must be continuing usefulness for all that God brings forth. Since creative Mind is the origin of the universe, it must also be the ultimate, the all-inclusive. This implies that ideas emanating from the divine Mind eternally remain within the orbits of God's intention for them.
