One
of the fundamental teachings of Christian Science is that all true causation is divine; that is to say, the universe springs from God, the only cause and the only creator.
The
student of any of the so-called sciences knows that in order to reach the results at which the subject aims, its rules must be followed, its directions implicitly obeyed.

often believe strongly—often very strongly—in the power of evil, and only the spiritually enlightened among them are capable of thwarting evil's claim to power through the understanding and practice of good.
In
Jesus' Sermon on the Mount we find the following very positive statement: "Let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil.
Mortals
generally believe that the so-called physical senses furnish the avenues through which knowledge of the material world is gained; and this seeming world of matter is called the sensuous world, because its only claim to reality is presented through the senses.
