Exemplification Needed

Carl J. Welz

Every event in history is symbolic. It has been seen as having meaning or it would not have been recorded. Some events, of course, have more meaning than others.

No event in the history of mankind has significance to match the story of Jesus of Nazareth. The virgin birth, the display of wisdom, the healing works, the sacrifice, the triumph, the love of this man, tell us something we can know in no other way. Jesus' life tells us that the Principle of the universe is infinite Mind, divine Love, and it tells us that the Principle is God, who loves us right where we are.

If we consider the whole life of Christ Jesus, we can sum up its message in the words of Mary Baker Eddy, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science: "Divine Love always has met and always will meet every human need."^{Science and Health, p. 494;}
