Supply Is Spiritual

ROBERT A. MOSS

Mary Baker Eddy writes in "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" (p. 466), "The Science of Christianity comes with fan in hand to separate the chaff from the wheat." The scientific separation of the chaff of error from the wheat of Truth proves the spiritual fact that man has perpetual supply of whatever is needful for his harmony and happiness.

Belief in financial lack, so common in human experience, is certainly subject, as is any so-called physical sickness, to the healing touch of Truth, applied in strict accordance with the rules of Christian Science. The student of Christian Science may begin at once to expose the falsity of lack by claiming the reality, of which lack is an inversion. An important point to be realized in doing this is that every discordant condition is an error, or false statement about something that already and forever is. Thus lack is merely an incorrect concept of a real and eternal fact, the changeless spiritual fact of supply.

Our beloved Leader, in answering the question on page 466 of Science and Health, "What are spirits and souls?" writes, "To human belief, they are personalities constituted of mind and matter, life and death, truth and error, good and evil; but these contrasting pairs of terms represent contraries, as Christian Science reveals, which neither dwell together nor assimilate." Equally so, supply and lack are contraries, "which neither dwell together nor assimilate." Supply can never become lack, and lack can never become supply. If supply is a fact, lack can be only the supposititious opposite of it. One only of the two contraries can be true. Christian Science shows unmistakably which is the reality by its revelation of God, infinite Mind, as the only substance.
