It
is sometimes said to those who have been reared in Christian Science: "If only the same privilege had been mine, I am sure I would not have had so much to meet!" A student of Christian Science who had heard this statement many times, turned to our textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, and found on page 26 this illuminating sentence: "While we adore Jesus, and the heart overflows with gratitude for what he did for mortals,—treading alone his loving pathway up to the throne of glory, in speechless agony exploring the wayfor us,—yet Jesus spares us not one individual experience, if we follow his commands faithfully; and all have the cup of sorrowful effort to drink in proportion to their demonstration of his love, till all are redeemed through divine Love.
