TRUE GOVERNMENT

LOUIE ALLEN

World thought, as depicted by politics, literature, defense measures, and scientific research, evidences a constant reaching out for more satisfactory ways of government. Progress, expressed in greater benefits for mankind and more freedom in every direction, is desired. Observation shows us that the reason better world conditions are not established is that, generally speaking, materiality bases the thinking of men.

What joy is experienced by the student of Christian Science when he learns through the study of the textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, that God's universe of ideas is the only universe. He finds that it is no longer necessary for him to be bound by beliefs of fear or limitation. Frustration and obstruction are seen to be unreal and powerless when spiritual understanding is applied to his problems and God's law of good is trusted.

The truth of God's infinitude and man's oneness, or unity, with divine perfection was discovered by Mrs. Eddy when she turned to God and was healed of a condition the physician believed would prove fatal. Then she relied upon the one Mind to show her how to give to others a demonstrable understanding of divine power. Having discovered the Principle which rules man and the universe, she established the Church of Christ, Scientist, which exemplifies true government for the world today.
