Progressively Proving Our Immortality

JIMMY J. VAKIL

Throughout the centuries seers and prophets have spoken of immortality, and religions have put forth many philosophies on the desirability and modes of attaining immortality. Christian Science, the promised Comforter, unfolds the practical, scientific method of progressively bringing to light, of demonstrating here or hereafter, the present immortality and perfection of man. It does this in keeping with Christ Jesus' promise, "Whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die."^{John 11:26;}

This Science teaches that Life, Spirit, Soul, is God, the divine Principle of all creation, who is without beginning or end. It teaches that God is completely incorporeal, infinite, all-inclusive good, exempt from all evil, materiality, sin, sickness, and death. It shows that man is made in God's own image and likeness, perfect, immortal, and pure. He is free of the limitations of matter and mortality and is as incorporeal as God is.

Being immortal, the image of God, man does not undergo birth, maturity, or death. God is his only Mind or Ego. Spirit is his Life, substance, and consciousness. Man is, in reality, birthless, ageless, sinless, deathless. Though never absorbed in Deity, man is coexistent and coeternal with God and expresses God as He is. He manifests God's completeness, perfection, holiness, and immortality unchanged throughout eternal history.
