"IMMUTABLE LAW"

ON page 134 of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" Mrs. Eddy speaks of Christian Science as "the natural law of harmony which overcomes discord," and she states that it is "not because this Science is supernatural or preternatural, nor because it is an infraction of divine law, but because it is the immutable law of God, good.
