NEITHER COMING, NOR GOING

L. Ivimy Gwalter

Resurrection is the proof of the unbroken continuity of life and love, the proof of the ever-presence of divine Love and the indestructibility of divine Life, of God and His forever manifestation.

It verifies the statement of Mary Baker Eddy in "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" (p. 554), "There is no such thing as mortality, nor are there properly any mortal beings, because being is immortal, like Deity,—or, rather, being and Deity are inseparable." This is the significance of Christ Jesus' resurrection. The power of quenchless Love and endless Life is the truth he taught and demonstrated throughout his ministry. This truth the Bible reveals as demonstrable law, ever operative and ever present, the law which ever sustains the deathless continuity of life and annihilates death, as witness the raising of the little son of the Shunammite woman by Elisha the prophet centuries before the era of Christ Jesus, and the raising of Dorcas by Peter long after the Master had ceased to be incarnate to human view.

The Science of being challenges and disproves the testimony of the physical senses at every point, for Christian Science is the revelation that all is Mind, and that Mind is God, Life, Soul, Spirit. Hence life is explained from the standpoint of Mind as a spiritually mental experience, and Soul is seen as neither animating corporeality nor confined by it, but as reflecting itself in the spiritual sense and consciousness of Life everlasting and the radiance of birthless, fadeless, deathless being.
