"TRUTH BY INVERSION"

NAOMI PRICE

The woes of sense when reversed may serve to indicate the perfection and harmony which are basic qualities of true being. Every material belief is a lie about some spiritual idea; therefore it follows that inharmony exists merely as a supposed counterfeit of untroubled perfection.

Disease, lack, discord, enmity, and hate, which are the opposites of wholeness, abundance, harmony, love, exist only as vain imaginings. Mary Baker Eddy says in "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" (pp. 367, 368): "Evil is but the counterpoise of nothingness. The greatest wrong is but a supposititious opposite of the highest right."

From everlasting, God sees what He in His infinite wisdom has created, and He knows that it is very good. Habakkuk says of God (1: 13), "Thou art of purer eyes than to behold evil, and canst not look on iniquity." To the Principle of all real being there is no inharmony, no sickness, accident, or lack. All is eternally beautiful and good.
