THE ACTIVITY THAT BRINGS ABUNDANCE

NEIL MARTIN

When we consider how many today have insufficient nourishment, inadequate lodging, and no great hope of security, we see how necessary it is for the Christian Scientist to demonstrate the abundance of those spiritual ideas and talents which are the source of mankind's subsistence.

Christian Science is based on the great metaphysical fact, found in the Scriptures, of the inseparability of God and His ideas, man and the universe. Such teaching, accepted as a basis for correct thinking, leads to a present perception of the unity and totality of all that truly exists. For as we glimpse ourselves as individual spiritual ideas linked in Science to the source of all ideas—divine Mind—we begin to find ourselves in more harmonious relationships with our fellow men.

Christ Jesus demonstrated with unparalleled completeness the oneness of God and His ideas. He knew that God, the Father, always supplies all good and that mankind, when awake to man's relationship to Him and to all His ideas, can lack nothing essential. Knowing this, Jesus was able to feed the multitude and to help others to demonstrate supply.
