Supporting a Righteous Cause

From the September 1976 issue of The Christian Science Journal


No other activity today needs or deserves our support, love, and careful attention more than does the Cause of Christian Science. The mission of the Church of Christ, Scientist, is to share with everyone the demonstrable Science of Christianity. This Science frees from enslavement to the material belief that life is dependent on and inheres in matter. This spiritually scientific system presents the religion of Love, setting forth the great truth that God is supreme and infinite Spirit; that He is the only creative force; and that consequently man, His creation, is wholly spiritual and can experience only abundant, ceaseless good.

Christian Science explains the spiritual basis upon which true peace, everlasting supply, and permanent health are established. Its work is to transform men's sense of themselves and their universe from a material concept to the true spiritual basis of the immortality and present perfection of God's creation.

To further this most important of all causes, we need to see clearly that Christian Science is the work of God. It is God's unfolding of Himself to mankind. He initiates and furthers every step in the unfoldment of this divine revelation. The textbook, Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy; her Manual of The Mother Church; the Church of Christ, Scientist, itself; and the Christian Science periodicals—each is an inseparable outgrowth of the revelation that came from God to one who for years had earnestly sought an understanding of Him.
