Words of Current Interest

The words in this issue are related to the Lesson-Sermon in the CHRISTIAN SCIENCE QUARTERLY designated to be read in Christian Science churches on October 4, 1970.

Because ye despise this word, and trust in oppression and perverseness, and stay thereon: therefore this iniquity shall be to you as a breach ready to fall, swelling out in a high wall, whose breaking cometh suddenly at an instant (Isa. 30:12, 13)

The New English Bible suggests at this point, "Because you have rejected this warning and trust in devious and dishonest practices, resting on them for support, therefore you shall find this iniquity will be like a crack running down a high wall, which bulges and suddenly, all in an instant, comes crashing down."

I have raised him up in righteousness, and I will direct all his ways (Isa. 45:13)
