MAN REFLECTS LIMITLESS MIND

REBECCA F. HOLLIDAY

Christ Jesus , through his obedience to the law of perfect Mind, expressed boundless intelligence. He knew how to meet every situation which arose. He proved the ever-presence of Mind when he read from the Scriptures with such spiritual understanding that, according to John (7:15), "the Jews marvelled, saying, How knoweth this man letters, having never learned?"

Man, the expression of God, divine Mind, always manifests unlimited intelligence. This spiritual fact is provable in human experience through obedience to spiritual law.

Today, through Christian Science, many are proving by their obedience to the law of God that intelligence cannot be circumscribed by the limitations of material beliefs. The earnest student finds that whatever the human problem seems to be, the need always is to gain more spiritual understanding of man as Mind's expression. Furthermore, he sees that a belief in a material intelligence limited by heredity, unfavorable environment, lack of formal schooling, illness, or so-called laws of human psychology or physiology is an imposition which should be cast out of one's thinking as unreal. He understands that the recognition of one's true individuality as spiritual, reflecting the substance of Mind, Spirit, enables one to receive the unfoldment of infinite ideas.
