THE OPERATION OF SPIRITUAL LAW

C. EDWARD JONES

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE teaches that God is All-in-all, the only cause and creator, the source of all good, and that perfect man and the spiritual universe are the orderly and true effect of that cause. One of the most comforting consequences of God's allness is the ever-presence, as well as the ever-operation, of His laws, the spiritual and moral forces of God, divine Mind. These laws are operating undisturbed and eternally.

Material laws, so called, such as laws of health, laws of supply and demand, laws of natural science, appear to govern human experience. These laws attempt to outline what will happen in a given situation when certain mortal forces are active.

It is an underlying characteristic of material laws, which appear to govern mortal existence and the material universe, that such laws produce both good and bad effects. Human life appears to be governed by a series of laws which ordain either health or sickness, abundance or lack, harmony or discord. How grateful we can be that Christian Science reveals the spiritual laws of God to be the only laws which really exist and therefore govern our lives!
