"FOOD FOR MAN'S USE"

John J. Selover

"In divine Science, man is sustained by God, the divine Principle of being," declares Mary Baker Eddy in "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" (p. 530). She then adds, "The earth, at God's command, brings forth food for man's use."

The absolute fact of being is that man is spiritual and that he is completely fed with the immortal bread which is from heaven, the bread furnished by God alone. That man is actually eternally sustained by God is the basic truth which one must understand and apply in order that he may give evidence of it in human experience.

Our bread from heaven is not temporal or material. It consists of Christly ideas, of right ideas. It consists of wisdom, love, health, purity, perfection, harmony, and the like.
