No devil in infinite good

JOYCE ROSEBERY

Passing a drive-in theater one day, I noticed that the movie then showing was on the currently popular theme of the devil's influence over mankind.

My immediate reaction was one of thankfulness for Christian Science. This Science has shown me that, contrary to the orthodox theological teaching of my childhood, there is no personal devil in opposition to God, good. There is no evil power to tempt us into forsaking goodness, to become a part of our very nature, finally pulling us down into the everlasting punishment of hell.
