Many of the Tribune-Democrat's readers must have rejoiced to read, in a recent issue, a Marshall county minister's plea for Christian unity, in which he quoted a clergyman, who wrote: "The living Christ in the living soul must be the goal of Christian revolution that wipes out inequalities of episcopacy, immersion, communion, creed, and similar denominational prejudices."

"What is this living Christ?" some may ask. The Christ we know to be synonymous with Messiah. "Christ expresses God's spiritual, eternal nature," writes Mary Baker Eddy, in the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" (p. 333). That is exemplified in Jesus' statement, "Before Abraham was, I am;" by which he meant that the spiritual Christ, not the corporeal Jesus, antedated the Hebrew patriarch.

"It is the living Christ, the practical Truth," says Mrs. Eddy (ibid., p. 31), "which makes Jesus 'the resurrection and the life' to all who follow him in deed."
