NEVER ALONE

VIRGINIA DORSEY WHITAKER

One of the most comforting revelations which Christian Science has brought to the world is the fact that the real man, as the reflection of his creator, the infinite Father-Mother God, never is and never can be alone. It is obvious that a reflection cannot exist apart from its original. Christian Science shows that it is the privilege of each individual to realize and prove that the loving Father did not create His children and then cast them adrift to fend for themselves, but that He is ever present, guiding, guarding, and cherishing His own.

Christ Jesus understood that the Christ, his real, ideal self, was inseparable from the Father. "I and my Father are one," he said (John 10:30). He claimed no power of his own origination; but he did claim his inseparability from the great divine source of all power. For over nineteen centuries, Christians have been accepting as true the at-one-ment of Christ Jesus with God.

With the coming of the promised Comforter, through Mary Baker Eddy's discovery of Christian Science in 1866, the words and works of Christ Jesus, the master Metaphysician, became the life pattern for each and every earnest Christian Scientist.
