MAN'S divine and eternal heritage is epitomized in these familiar verses from I John: "Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God.

MARY BAKER EDDY writes in the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" (p. 442) , that "truth cannot be reversed, but the reverse of error is true.

VERILY , verily, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give it you. " Thus did Christ Jesus, humanity's gracious Way-shower, reassure all who will heed his teachings, of the Father's ability and readiness to bestow all good upon those who ask of Him in Christ's name.

THE regenerating influence of divine Love transforms the unprofitable servant into one of helpfulness and true service. The mortal serving material conditions and their limitations is not the real man of God's creating, but a counterfeit of the real.

" AS for me, I will call upon God; and the Lord shall save me. " As did David, the unhappy heart searching for patience and comfort can turn to God for rescue from the mental bondage into which thought has strayed.

TRULY it may be said that we are concerned with our neighbor more broadly, more universally, now than ever before in human history. From the struggling masses of industrialism and immigration, back of this humanitarian movement and that, there gleams the invincible ideal of brotherhood; and despite the seeming clash of national will on will, and the Babel of materialism, the rallying trumpet call of a mighty social compunction is calling as never before, Men and brethren, what shall we do?

This being so, why should any of God's children lack happy and satisfying companionship? Nothing which really blesses does the loving Father withhold from His own sons and daughters.

LARGE numbers of people were attracted to Christ Jesus on many occasions: the Gospels state that "multitudes" or "great multitudes" pressed upon him for healing. The rapid growth and prosperity of Christian Science indicate that it, likewise, is attracting the multitudes.

THE Psalmist sang, "As for me, I will behold thy face in righteousness: I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with thy likeness. " When we approach it from a spiritual standpoint, what a depth of meaning is found in the word "reflection"! The real man is the reflection of God.

MOTHER-LOVE! What words so sweet, so full of meaning, so tender in all they convey to the listening thought! To Mary Baker Eddy we owe our deepest gratitude, for through her constant communion with God there came to her the revelation that God is our Mother as well as our Father, a revelation so momentous that the world as yet but slightly comprehends what it means to the human race. For ages mankind has been taught to know God as Father; but to this deeply religious woman was given the complete revelation of the allness of God, "Truth's appearing in the womanhood as well as in the manhood of God, our divine Father and Mother" ( Miscellaneous Writings, p.
