Christian Science
How sin and suffering are over-
come through spiritual under-
standing of God will be brought
out at Christian Science services
Sunday.
Readings from the Bible in the
Lesson - Sermon entitled “Ever-
lasting Punishment” will include
the following from James (4:8):
“Draw nigh to God, and he will
draw nigh .to you. Cleanse your
hands, ye sinners; and purify your
hearts, ye double minded.”
From “Science and Health with
Key to the Scriptures” by Mary
Baker Eddy will be read the fol-
lowing (239:16): “To ascertain our
progress, we must learn where
our affections are placed and
whom we acknowledge and obey
as God. If divine Love is becom-
ing nearer, dearer, and more real
to us, matter is then submitting
to Spirit. The objects we pursue
and the spirit we manifest reveal
our standpoint, and show what we
are winning.”
