THE LECTURES

with contributions from Orrin W. Jackson, E. Burdette Smith, E. McQueen Gray, W. W. Totheroh, Jack M. Jackson, I. C. Jennings, Reed Green

At a lecture on Christian Science given at the Macdonough theater by Virgil O. Strickler, the speaker was introduced by Orrin W. Jackson of First Church of Christ, Scientist, of Oakland, under whose auspices the lecture was given. Mr. Jackson said:—

Humanity is slowly awakening to the unalterable truth that there is an omnipotent, omnipresent, omniscient force controlling and governing the entire universe; an intelligent, constructive force, without beginning or end; a force absolutely good, without a destructive element in it; the supreme cause of all existence; the creator of all that is. Jesus the Christ taught man's true relationship to God, and gave to all a God who is Love, a God who is Spirit, a loving Father who is ever tenderly caring for His children. He proved by his works, in the healing of the sick, restoring of sight to the blind, raising the dead, and in many other wonderful demonstrations of power, the truth of all he taught, and commanded his disciples in all ages to come to make practical their religion by their works.—Oakland Tribune.
