"SPIRIT IMPARTS"

KITTY CHARSHEE

"Spirit imparts the understanding which uplifts consciousness and leads into all truth." This declaration of truth which appears on page 505 of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy stills an overanxious sense of striving to know the truth and leads to the realization that God's idea, man, is ever the reflection of Truth.

Spirit, Mind, imparts divine ideas. These are the angels of God that come to us as they came to Jacob of old when he dreamed and saw "a ladder set up on the earth, and the top of it reached to heaven: and behold the angels of God ascending and descending on it" (Gen 28:12). They are the sign of Immanuel, or "God with us."

Sometimes the idea or healing angel is a verse from the Bible, or a passage from one of Mrs. Eddy's writings, or a line from the Christian Science Hymnal. Again, it may be words of truth spoken by a Christian Science lecturer or by a friend.
