The Lectures

with contributions from Esther Watson, John V. Dittemore, T. W. Illman, Lewis C. Strang

A lecture on Christian Science was delivered by Miss Mary Brookins at First Church of Christ, Scientist, in this city, Sunday afternoon [June 25]. The lecturer was introduced by the First Reader, Miss Esther Watson, who said in part,—

By Jesus' understanding of the truth of man's relation to God, he demonstrated the power of Spirit over the flesh, Truth over error, Life over death, in healing the sick, reforming the sinner, raising the dead. With the spiritual interpretation of the Scriptures as given through the understanding of Christian Science, we find that it is possible for the disciples of Jesus to-day, as of old, to prove the omnipotence, the omnipresence of Truth and Love—to know God and to know man in His image and likeness as the Scriptures declare. With this knowledge of God and man, the promised peace and rest—the freedom which is man's rightful heritage—is a present possibility for all who "hunger and thirst after righteousness" and who will deny themselves to take up the cross daily and follow in the "way, the truth, and the life."—The News.
