LAW! THE VERY WORD IMPLIES THE POWER of divine Science. Christian Science is spiritual law made practical. It embodies the concept of divine strength, the irresistible. Endless authority backs up spiritual law. It is uniquely potent. As Mrs. Eddy affirmed, "God's law is in three words, 'I am All;' and this perfect law is ever present to rebuke any claim of another law" (No and Yes, p. 30). That is an extremely substantial and succinct statement about law — about its capabilities, what it is, and what it does.
Eternal law transcends any opposition from matter, whether that opposition claims to come from physical law, ecclesiastical law, medical law, mortal law, economic law, or any other kind of law. And we can always carry that conviction of the omnipotent law of good — all good — with us.
As a long-time Christian Science practitioner, I know well the many kinds of troubles that confront people. Inflexible budgets, poor health, business challenges, group discords — even upsets at church. However, we can always ask ourselves, Is such a thing permitted under spiritual law — under the law of Love? If the answer is No then we've taken a long step toward healing and adjustment.
