"OUT OF REACH OF ... HIS ENEMIES"
A dictionary says that "reach" means "the extent to which a person can stretch out the arm or hand, esp. so as to touch or grasp something." Parents, especially mothers, know the importance of putting things of value beyond the reach of young children. We are all familiar with the commonly used phrases "out of reach" and "within reach."
Mortals in general believe they are "within reach" of evil forces, sometimes actively identified in wrong-intentioned mortals, and often evidenced in forms of trouble and affliction which mortals seem unable to avoid or successfully to resist. The result is that many persons live in states of worry and fear, believing they are ever susceptible to the forces of evil.
Christian Science presents a different and comforting viewpoint. It challenges the verity of the whole material concept of cause and effect. The truth of being, it avers, is found only in the understanding that infinite Mind, Spirit, God, matter's opposite, is the one real cause, and that man and the universe, its effect, are spiritual, the expression of deific Mind. They coexist with, are constituted by, and contained in this Mind, and so are superior to and "out of reach" of all afflictive material, evil forces.
