Claiming True Relationship

SUSAN F. CAMPBELL

MANY are beginning to learn through the study and application of Christian Science how to claim their sonship with God, and to lay hold to some extent of the heritage which is theirs through this divine relationship. This claiming of man's divine birthright brings into daily experience a sense of spiritual control which affects circumstances and environment as well as physical conditions, for it brings the law of God to bear on these human experiences, whereby belief in that which is erroneous gives place to realization of the facts of Spirit.

The Bible, which has for centuries held its place as mankind's greatest guidebook, is illumined when studied in the light of the teachings of Mary Baker Eddy. In their light the Bible becomes more vital to the student, and glows with promises and the certainty of their fulfillment. In this light Christ Jesus is seen not as merely a glorious figurehead far beyond the reach of frail mortals, but as the practical daily Exemplar, the model of true Christianity, pointing the way for all up to the very throne of God.
