"THE VESTURE OF LIFE IS TRUTH"

LEORA E. WARREN

How often mankind accepts the outward sense of things without protesting, or even pausing to discern the true state of things. In Christian Science we learn that all things real are in God and therefore reflect the nature and quality of Him who is Love and Life. Mankind would therefore do well, before accepting material evidence as true, to measure it by eternal Truth.

To discover what the facts are it is helpful to ponder Mary Baker Eddy's words in "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures." She writes (p. 277): "The realm of the real is Spirit. The unlikeness of Spirit is matter, and the opposite of the real is not divine,—it is a human concept. Matter is an error of statement. This error in the premise leads to errors in the conclusion in every statement into which it enters. Nothing we can say or believe regarding matter is immortal, for matter is temporal and is therefore a mortal phenomenon, a human concept, sometimes beautiful, always erroneous."
