We are continually face to face with the Principle of being, divine Love, to determit.e whether our knowledge of Christianity, or of Christian Science, will stand the test.

There are those who believe that Christian Science has come into the world as a temptation to lure earnest Christian people away from God. from Christ Jesus, and from the Bible.

The demand on his followers in all time is to emulate his example. The truth about God, and about man, whom the Scriptures declare to be the image and likeness of God, hclU hi human consciousness, destroys human error, and Is made manifest in better health and better morals.

It is the mission of Christian Science to revive in this age the healing method used by Jesus and his followers in the early centuries of the Christian era. This method is fully explained in the Christian Science textbook. To illustrate simply: One may have been more or less troubled all his life about traits of character, or recognized evil tendencies in himself which he believes have been inherited, or have been fastened on him by past experiences, causing himself and others much unhappiness. Coming to Christian Science he begins to learn that all evil is unreal, because good On Water Tax Citizens' Budget Body every part of the globe.

I vidual who replied declared, "I know sickness as well as sin, spiritual nourishment is continually needed. Christian Scientists find it necessary dally to read and study the Scriptures and "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" and other literature based thereon. This line of the Lord's Prayer is greatly illumined by Mrs. Eddy's spiritual sense of its meaning (Science and Health, p. 17); "Give us grace for to-day; feed the famished affections," "Give us grace for to-day." What is grace? "The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.

It is as if all the yearning love for humanity which, c'uring twenty centuri-s brought forth the amazing compilation which we know as our Bible, was concentrated In one last loving benediction, one last Inspiring word to those who are striving to be Christians.

To the apprehension of the Christian world it grows steadily in authority and power. Many years ago Mrs.

Jamison of 175 W. 88th Manhattan, who also asked the court for an lnjuction to restrain hell of self-will, of fear, of envy, of anger, of hatred, of lust. Christian Science teaches everlasting punishment in the sense that sin is punished as long as it lasts. But it also teaches that all sin and all suffering for sin must eventually disappear from human consciousness-it is never any part of divine consciousnessand human consciousness yields to the divine. The belief in a place of eternal torture seems to be disappearing from the teaching of many of the churches.

Lord's Praver teaches us individually how to be Christians. The impression prevails quite widely that one may be humanly born a Christian. But the process is not so simple as that. And: who that has felt the joy of the tattle, the joy of overcoming matwlal sense and self through spiritual understanding, would care to he born a Christian? A Christian is born not of the flesh but of the Spirit. Christian Science makes it very clear that to be a Christian, and to us from the peaceful Syrian hills, find human life much more complex than when they were uttered.

We need more and more to learn that all men are our brethren, and that In realty we all have the one Mind, one Father-Mother, to Instruct and guide us. A line from "Pilgrim's Progress" love the orthodox church; and, In time, that church will love Christian Science" (Miscellaneous Writings, p. 111). Christian Scientists are grateful for the signs which Indicate that the time of the fulfillment of that prophecy is drawing nearer. Christian Science reiterates the promises of the Bible with great confidence, because of the daily the city from collecting water only is real, and that there is no limit to the possibilities of proving the reality of good and the unreality of evil.

He begins to reason from the involved. The Communist moves were described today by one of the legal experts as resembling an "examination before trial."

When we keep constantly In mind what we ourselves owe, according to the ancient rule, "Love thy neighbour as thyself," and devote ourselves to the work of paying this great debt, we not only will have little or no time to consider what others may seem to owe us in the way of loving consideration, but we completely lose sight of such alleged Indebtedness.

Genuine Christianity is no more at peace with worldly mindedness today than it was nineteen centurirs ago.

On page 16 of the Christian Science textbook, "Scienec and Health with Key to the Scriptures," written by Mary Baker Eddy, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, we read. "Only as we ri.se above all material sensuousness and sin can we reach the heaven-born aspiration and spiritual consciousness, which is indicated la the Ipord's Prayer and which instantaneously heals the sick." On the same page, Mrs. Eddy writes. "Here let me give Mayor on Sept. 20, and the veto was overriden by the Aldermen by a 67 to 1 vote on Oct.

Dr. Jamison's action bears on the balancing of the 1938 budget, as the additional revenues of $12,000,000 a year resulting from the 50 percent water rate increase have been used for budget purposes and not for emergency relief. Allege Ordinance Flouted The ordinance restoring the old water rate levels, it is alleged, has not been complied with by the Commissioner of Water Supply and the humanity. "I am among you as he that serveth," he said.

His life was Affectionate Remembrance of Older Denominations Nothwithstanding the change which has taken place in my religious convictions through the study of Christian Science, I loved my old church, and still love it, and would not have anyone conclude that I now feel that we did not have any religion in that old church. Notwithstanding some of the theological teachings, to which I believe many of the members gave but little attention, we had a great deal of comforting and inspiring religion. Chris-tion Scientists who have come out from the older churches are grateful for their uplifting influences, and we are glad to note increasing evidences that, since Mrs. Eddy began to teach Christian Science, the he is governed only by the law of God, the law of good, he is greatly strengthened when finding that he can overcome and cast out the traits and tendencies he has believed were part of his nature. "He that over-cometh shall Inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son," saith the Revelator.

Likewise, one who feels that he Is not so well endowed with intelligence as others, or with the capacity to achieve, and that he has never been much of a success in any undertaking, is able to overcome self-depreciation, when learning to depend upon the source of all wisdom and true Mind-power. He that is fearful, through the recognition of man's unity with divine Love, that perfect Love which casteth out fear, can find relief from that bondage. One who is sorely tempted to hate can overcome that temptation when And, as it hastens, every age But makes its brightness more a life of continuous spiritual Joy.

When and how shall such a debtor be forgiven? The impression prevails quite widely divine Love Is truly man substance marked Influence on the theological teachings of many of the older We hear much of gratitude for blessings received perhaps if a demon-tration has been made over some sense of sickness, or sin, or anguish, or lack and that is good, as far as it goes, but to learn to rejoice and be grateful when material sense says there is nothing to rejoice over or to be grateful for, is of far greater importance.

In reference to the collector's action and the proceedings Instituted by Dr. Jamison, the Citizens Budget Commission made the following statement: "The Budget Commission believes that the City Tax Collector is clearly in error in demanding payment of the 50 percent Increased rate, and also that the Board of Aldermen had power under the Charter to pass an ordinance reducing the water charges.

Her a wider and deeper knowledge of the offending one may not be at all conscious of having given offense, or the one who has taken offense may have listened to the voice of gossip, or the voice of prejudice or of pride or of his own self-will, or may have imagined himself to have been slighted. But even If the attitude of the alleged debtor Is one of distinct animosity, when and how shall I forgive my brother? If I wait for him to see his fault and apologize or ask for forgiveness, the time may never come when I can forgive him. I have in the meantime made a debtor of him, and do not feel kindly toward him. If I carry untiring labors for our race will find and greater appreciation as time goes on. There is not a paragraph in her great work, the Chris tian Science textbook, which has not to Paul to preach Christ and to prove that "Love never faileth." Here is another illustration of the necessity of gratitude.

Two young men who were students of Christian Science were talking together. The younger of them had returned from his vacation with what seemed to be a badly infected arm. He had been having help in Christian Science, and was himself an earnest student, but the condition of the arm did not seem to Improve. The older brother earnestly inquired, "Are you grateful for this problem?" The younger replied that lie knew one could make no progress in Christian Science without gratitude, and enumerated various blessings for which he was grateful, such as our church services and our literature. Key to Scriptures," by Mary Eaker Eddy: "Love is impartial and universal in its adaptation and bestowals.

It is the open fount which up things," and of the Greek, "sky." These metaphors plainly were intended to convey the sense of exalted thought or spiritual consciousness. The Founder of Christianity could not have been thinking of a far-off material place when he declared, "The kingdom of heav--n is at "the kingdom of God is within you." Heaven is the one Mind the Mind which belongs to each and to all. Mrs. Eddy writes on page 467 of the textbook: "It should be thoroughly understood that all men have one Mind, one God and Father, one Life, Truth and Love. Mankind will become perfect in proportion as this fact becomes apparent, war will cease and the true brotherhood of man will be established." Our Father-one Mind these are the same.

Mind, when spelled with a capital letter, is one of the great names for God used in Christian Science. "All is infinite Mind and its infinite manifestation." This is the funda healed someone of some phase of fear, of sin, of sickness, of doubt, of some kind of human woe. It is the healing which follows the study of the Scriptures In the light of Mrs. Eddy's marvelous writings which has established her spiritual leadership in the hearts and minds of an ever-increasing multitude, and which convinces The Jamison complaint alleges the failure of the City Collator and the what God is and of what man is, holding to this consciousness as being the truth of his own existence, and denying the reality of that which physical sense asserts is true, but he wonders how one can help another by his true thought. It is because of the unity of all real being, because we all have the same Father-Mother Love as our source, origin, and governing law, that one can aid and heal another by the recognition of Truth in the other's behalf.

This explanation may seem to some to be abstruse, but the truth of spiritual healing, as we learn it in Christian Science, Is so simple that little children readily absorb its elements and use the truth, not cries, 'Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the Divine Love always has met and always will meet every human need" (pp. 13 and 494).

"Let us suppose that you were in give? The primary meaning of the word "give" is to "impart or transfer to another something good;" rarely do we think of giving that which is not good, and no one ever thinks of an evil gift.
