In the Christian Science Bible Lesson

From our Exchanges

Ninety years from now, immeasurably more than now, the world's practical religion will be the great spiritual and ethical truths which men in great numbers are discovering in the New Testament — that record of the truth revealed to the first Christians.
Christian Scientists do not deny that to mortal sense evil in all its phases is as real as any physical phenomena.
Those who know what Christian Science really is, know that in no respect is there any similarity between its alert, active, intelligently Christian teachings and the dreamy mysticism of Hindoo philosophy.
Christian Science does not dispossess the patient of the control of his own mind, nor place him under the control of another human will.
Scholarship has at last entered on its serious mission of curbing the irrelevant emotions of mankind, and of introducing that intellectual domination which must analyze the problems of religion to their ultimate facts and construct general systems of belief which are rational and effective.
For nearly forty years Christian Science has been taught and demonstrated, at first by Mary Baker Eddy alone, and then with a rapidly growing number of her followers, until to-day it is well known that many thousands have accepted this teaching as the logical and demonstrable explanation of Christ's message.
A clergyman declares that "expectancy is a therapeutic agent" employed in Christian Science healings, and that "there is no necessity of going outside the church to find it, for it is practised more or less by all physicians.
I am not a Christian Scientist myself, being, indeed, a member of the Church of England, but this does not bar me from admitting and rejoicing in the good work the Christian Scientists are doing by the exercise of what a critic calls their "healing propensity.

Unity

How important to us is the true sense of unity.
AFTER becoming a student of Christian Science, the subject of joining The Mother Church in Boston was brought to the writer's notice, and she well remembers that at first she thought lightly of that privilege, partly owing, perhaps, to the fact that in the church to which she formerly belonged, infant baptism was considered the seal of membership.

"Awake thou that sleepest"

Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.
