Feeding the Multitude

From the August 1966 issue of The Christian Science Journal


The needs of the weary, hungry, unhappy, and sick are not different today from those of the multitudes following our Master, Christ Jesus, when he taught, healed, and fed them many years ago on the hills of Judea and by the Galilean Sea. And this same pure Christianity of the healing Christ, Truth, has been restored and made available to all through Christian Science.

The understanding of this fact makes it possible for a lecture to be God-directed, God-ordained, God-governed, and God-protected. As such it represents an activity of the divine idea, "Church," which Mrs. Eddy defines in Science and Health as: "The structure of Truth and Love; whatever rests upon and proceeds from divine Principle." Science and Health, p. 583
