A PRECIOUS NECESSITY

The glory of God is the spiritual light, harmony, and perfection which constitute the nature of Deity. We find the word glory very frequently used in the Scriptures with reference to both God and man. We learn in Christian Science that the glory of God, the spiritual light, the nature of God, is reflected by His image and likeness, man.

If there are occasions when we seem to lack spiritual enlightenment, let us seek and find the true idea of God as taught in Christian Science. No Christian can doubt that the Master, Christ Jesus, understood the glory of God. His works of healing were the result of this understanding. Had he not recognized the perfection of God, he could never have brought to light the perfection of the real man, God's reflection.

Jesus recognized that worldly thinking would attempt to deprive us of spiritual enlightenment. It does so because its tendency is to turn thought to the contemplation of materiality. The Master found it necessary continually to affirm his unity with the Father, his inseparability from God, divine Love. When the malice and hatred of mortal mind attempted to destroy him, he found refuge and deliverance through prayer.
