Mary Baker Eddy, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, tells us on page 104 of her textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures": "Agassiz, the celebrated naturalist and author, has wisely said: 'Every great scientific truth goes through three stages. First, people say it conflicts with the Bible. Next, they say it has been discovered before. Lastly, they say they have always believed it.'"

Since God is the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow, all must be eternally true and eternally the same. Christian Science has always been a fact, and it has been discovered by Mrs. Eddy and given to the world in such a form as to be made understandable and demonstrable for everyone.

If today we all believed the evidence of the physical senses that the earth is flat and stationary, it would yet be round and whirling in space. So our opinion concerning anything is valueless unless it is based on fact, and if it is based on fact, it is true. This right trend of reasoning brings us into an understanding of one of the most illuminating statements Mrs. Eddy has made (Science and Health, p. 468): "All is infinite Mind and its infinite manifestation, for God is All-in-all."
