CHRISTIAN SCIENTISTS are Bible students. With the light that is thrown upon the Scriptures through the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, a clearer interpretation of its meaning is given to every earnest seeker for the truth. This book has been found by many spiritual thinkers to be the greatest commentary on the Bible. It reveals God as perfect Principle, the only intelligence and power of the universe, and as absolute good. As the great first and only cause and creator, this divine Principle never made a mistake. It is unchanging good, and is another word for Mind, Truth, or Spirit. Those who have received and accepted this viewpoint of God have demonstrated in some measure by actual proof that the author of this textbook has given the human race the correct idea of God as well as the Science of Life.

Many have proved the nothingness of disease by its disappearance through this understanding of God, while great numbers have lost desire for sin after the nothingness of sin has been exposed in this Science. By clearly establishing in the thought of its students and followers that a good and kind Father-Mother God never sent either sin or disease, Christian Science has enabled multitudes to discern that sin and disease are merely false human concepts, without a real creator. Many cases are known where money, valuables, animals, and even human beings were reported to have been lost, and through Christian Science what seemed to have been lost was found and restored. These were added proofs that Principle alone controls the universe and is unerring. When our false human concept is changed from the belief in loss to the understanding of God and His unchanging law, that which seems to be lost or missing is located or found and so restored to its rightful place or condition. Not by an admission of loss is such a demonstration brought about, but rather by realizing that in reality nothing is lost in God's kingdom.

Christian Scientists are of course deeply concerned about world affairs to-day. They are altruists in the truest sense. They are thinking in terms higher than personal problems and pray for all mankind. They desire to feed the human race with the word of Truth that will establish the kingdom of heaven on earth. They realize, however, that Christ Jesus, the Way-shower, taught and demonstrated the nothingness of matter, its beliefs of limitation and loss. Our false human concepts of matter, time, and place must therefore give way to the spiritual truth about these beliefs. Principle and its idea recognizes neither earthly time, space, limits, nor losses, and our thinking, to be scientific and correct, must be conformable to this Principle. When Christian Scientists have realized sufficiently clearly the allness of Spirit and the nothingness of material existence, they will understand how impossible has been the error of believing that anything that is spiritual ever has been or ever could be lost. This is as certain, according to Christian metaphysics, as is the restoration of an individual to health from the illusion of sickness, to wholeness from sin, and as certain as the restoration of any article or person supposedly lost, when scientific metaphysics has been applied.
