CHRISTIAN SCIENCE SERVICES
■‘Love” is the subect of the Lesson-
Sermon which will be read in all
Churches of Christ, Scientist, on Sun-
day, July 30.
The Golden Text is: “Let him that
glorieth in this, that he understand-
eth and knoweth me, that I am the
Lord which exercise loving kindness,
•Judgment, and righteousness, in the
earth: for in these things I delight,
saith the Ixird” (Jeremiah 9:24.)
Among the citations which com-
prise the Lesson-Sermon is the fol-
lowing from the- Bible: “For I am
persuaded, that neither death, nor
life, nor angels, nor principalities,
nor power, nor things present, nor ,
things to come, nor height, nor depth,
nor any other creature, shall be able
to separate us from the love of God,
which is in Christ Jesus our Lord"
(Romans 8:38, 39.)
The Lesson-Sermon also includes
the following passage from the
Christian Science textbook, "Science
and Health with Key to the Scrip-
tures” by Mary Baker Eddy: “Let
us rid ourselves of the belief that man
is separated from God. and obey only
the divine Principle. Life and Love.’

GERMANS THREATEN TO
' DESTROY ALL EUROPE
London—One of the gravest broad-
casts ever to come from Nazi Ger-
many declared Thursday night that
“terror grips the hearts of many of
our people ’ and that “Germany s
fight for life and death is on.”
The broadcast, as heard by the Lon-
don Eeveuing News, warned:
"Before the peril can reach the
hlart of our beloved country, we will
turn this continent into a maelstrom
of destruction where only one cry !s
heard—the cry for blood."
The utterances from the enemy’s
military radio said further:
“All now is at stake. The Russian
flood is surging against our eastern
frontier and threatens to spill over
our holy German land.
“No wonder terror grips the hent
of many of our people. We soldiers
know this terror for we have ex-
perienced it a thousand nights. But
we are determined to keep it from our
loved ones at home.
“This holy war niust now become
a really total war. Everyone capable
of drawing breath for forging or us-
ing a weapon must now be in it. We
must have the very last man.”
Then came the threat to destroy'
Europe, and the broadcast concluded:
“We will stand and hold fast till
our hour strikes. Let our enemies
not think that, now that they stand
before our frontiers, the task will
be easier for them.”
