Nothing Ahead but Life

From the May 1975 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Christian Science can help develop the spiritual understanding to overcome the fear of death. It teaches that, in reality, there is nothing to be experienced but life, now or ever—life beautiful, joyful, buoyant!

Life! What a wonderful word! With a capital L it stands for God. Divine Life's law of continuity controls absolutely all real existence. Every expression of God is good, and under the divine law this good always has been and always will be. But because God, good, is All-in-all right now, there is no need to look backward or forward for our real being as His perfect expression.

With a small l, Christian Science teaches, life is the evidence, the thoughts, of God. Life's manifestation as a whole is the universe, or creation. When referring to the true man, Science means the compound spiritual idea of divine Mind, Life.
