Signs of the Times

[From an editorial in the Christian Science Sentinel (November 18, 1933), Boston, Massachusetts]

The Christian Science Monitor is doing valuable service in bringing information to Christian Scientists concerning the sayings of men and the doings of nations. This information should not be allowed to go in at one ear and out at the other, as the saying goes. The Christian Scientist should brings his understanding of Truth to bear upon it; he should bring spiritual evidence to bear upon it, and so refute whatever is erroneous. Take crime for example. The Christian Scientist should not stand aghast before the degrading spectacle; he should declare the perfection of man, his freedom from evil, and so deny reality to sin, whatever shape it may appear to assume, thus holding crime in check. Man is the perfect child of God, sinless and pure; and no materialistic argument to the contrary can alter the divine fact.
