THE CALLING OF READERS

Some of our friends have asked us to sound a note of warning in regard to the tendency upon the part of branch churches to "call" Readers from other fields, in preference to electing from their own membership to these important offices.

THE TRUE KINSHIP

There are many Christian people who unhesitatingly accept the teaching of Christ Jesus as the highest spiritual authority, and yet who find it difficult if not impossible to explain or approve his statements and attitude as recorded in the 46th to the 50th verses of the 12th chapter of Matthew, where he seems to have turned away from the human sense of sonship and declared for the supremacy of the spiritual.

WHEN TO GIVE THANKS

In the 107th Psalm we have a wonderful presentation of the great drama of human redemption from sin and sickness, with several interludes which call upon men to give thanks to God for all His goodness and for His "wonderful works to the children of men!" In this psalm every phase of human wretchedness is outlined,—the sin and sickness, the "darkness and the shadow of death," the penury, the hunger, the tempest; but in each case the all-sufficiency of divine Love is shown and every storm is stilled.

A SURE FOUNDATION

The one great difference between Christian Science and practically all other religions is that it insists upon the present-day possibility of those "signs" which Jesus declared should follow upon the works of all who believe in him.
