Much
is said throughout the Bible, particularly in the Old Testament, about the sanctuary of the Lord, meaning usually the material temple in which men gathered to worship.
The
many useful discoveries of recent years, such as radio, television, electronics, and plastics, have brought to light physical forces hitherto unknown, or little understood.
That
there shall be growth in grace is one of the demands of Christianity, and this demand is clarified and made an exact and joyous experience of progress through an understanding of the teachings of Christian Science.
In
the closing verses of the twelfth chapter of that remarkable letter to the Hebrews may be found a description of the turmoil of mortal mind which most aptly fits the condition of the world today.
The
so-called human mind in its concept of life as existing in and of matter is always balancing good and evil, thus remaining in a perpetual state of uncertainty, never sure which will triumph, good or evil, health or sickness, life or death.
When
one reads the Bible in the light of the teachings of Christian Science, how alive become the characters depicted therein, how paralleled with ours their experiences, trials, and triumphs! Mary Baker Eddy discovered the Science of Christianity in the Holy Scriptures when through rare inspiration she was enabled to read the sacred pages and to discern their spiritual, scientific message.
One
of our splendid young aviators, an earnest student of Christian Science, wrote to his mother, "If word comes to you that I am missing in action, don't accept it!" What a message of strength and courage is this for those whose dear ones are facing dangers in distant lands; yes, and for every Christian soldier at home or abroad confronted with error's devious and devastating arguments! Christian Science is teaching mankind not to accept as truth and reality the carnal mind's suggestions of discord and disaster.
