"THY YEARS SHALL HAVE NO END"

KATHRYN PAULSON

Years have been poetically but fearsomely described as great black oxen treading down and crushing all that is in their path. Through the centuries similar false concepts have haunted men and created a fear of time which seemingly fulfills itself in disease and disability. Yet accumulated time, in itself, is powerless to infect mankind with degenerative disorders; it is mankind's expectance and acceptance of such evils as real which seemingly bring them about. It is possible today, through the revelation of Christian Science, to correct such erroneous thinking by establishing the truth of man's spiritual nature and existence, and thus to maintain health, activity, and vigor despite passing years. Time cannot alarm or even affect one who increasingly understands Life as God, omnipotent, omnipresent Love.

This practical, demonstrable religion was discovered and founded by Mary Baker Eddy. She learned through consecrated, inspired study of the Bible that God's laws are as applicable today to meet the human need as they were throughout Biblical history. They are based on divine Principle and therefore are changeless and scientific. Both the patriarchs and the prophets, through their radical acceptance of God's omnipotence, attained a degree of longevity which would be considered incredible according to modern standards.
