Indestructible identity

OLIVIA P. WHITTAKER

We hear a great deal today of advancing age, of senior citizenry, of all kinds of plans for people's retirement from active living. The general expectancy of a person's deterioration with the passing of years is based on the theory that man is a finite mortal who is born into matter at a certain time, who ages in matter, and then is destroyed by matter.

This philosophy of life has prevailed throughout mortal history. But it has no real, permanent basis to rest on. On the other hand Christian Science, in accord with Jesus' teaching, is revealing man's indestructible identity as never born, never aging, never dying, because God, divine Principle, is man's Life.

This Science reveals one infinite Principle governing man and the universe in absolutely perfect order. Principle is God— everywhere, filling all space. All-encompassing, it expresses itself throughout all creation in one orderly pattern. Everything that really exists, Science shows, is individually identified as the exact expression of this perfect Principle.
