GOD IS ALL

BETTY G. MELICHAR

The beloved disciple John wrote in the book of Revelation (22: 17): "The Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely."

The message of Christian Science to the world today coincides with that of the beloved disciple. It invites each individual to partake of a fuller sense of life. It shows how the great truth of God's allness may be brought to bear on any human problem, dissolving whatever is discordant. It explains that the need is always to come up mentally to higher ground. The material sense of things, with its aggressive claim to power, would keep one in bond-age to the belief that evil is real and has a place in the divine economy. But if one is willing to come out from this mesmeric belief and draw near to the great heart of infinite Love, he learns that God is All and that there is none else, as the Bible teaches.

Christian Science offers the refreshing, thirst-quenching water of spiritual understanding which uplifts the weary one and heals the hopeless sufferer. It satisfies the searcher for God and turns human thought away from matter to Spirit as the only cause, the All-in-all of being. If we agree that Spirit, God, is the only cause or source, then all that is produced by this cause or emanates from this source must partake of its nature and must therefore be spiritual.
