"The mountain of the Lord's house"

Ralph E. Wagers

Centuries ago Isaiah foresaw a time when the people would gather together to learn how to live with each other under the government of divine Science. As a result, swords and spears would be converted into plowshares and pruning hooks. There would be no more war. This is the way the prophet put it (2:2): "It shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the Lord's house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it."

In this "mountain of the Lord's house" God will teach men of His way and they will walk in His paths, "for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem" (verse 3).

Divine Science reveals that the highest goal attainable to men is to understand and prove that they live in a spiritual universe governed by divine law. As Mrs. Eddy writes in Science and Health (p. 209), "Mind, supreme over all its formations and governing them all, is the central sun of its own systems of ideas, the life and light of all its own vast creation; and man is tributary to divine Mind." This divine order is the Science of being, understandable and demonstrable.
