Revolutionary? Yes!

CAROL CHAPIN LINDSEY

Genuine Christian Science is revolutionary. Real Christian Scientists, therefore, would have to be judged revolutionaries by any comprehensive standards.

Why?

Because this Science demands a momentous change in our conceptions of God, the universe, and man. It delves under the surface of things, overthrows material sense evidence, and offers radical reliance on a spiritual understanding of God for health, sustenance, and happiness. It challenges the very existence of matter. On the basis of God's allness, it concludes logically that because God, incorporeal Spirit, is All, matter and everything corporeal must be only impossible opposites of this allness. Can there be anything more revolutionary than that position?
