CHRISTIAN SCIENCE

“MATTER” was the subject of the lesson-sermon in all Churches of Christ, Scientist, yesterday. The Golden Text was John 3:6. "That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.” Among the citations which comprised the lesson-sermon were I be following Irom the Bible: “Ho, every one that thirstetli, como ye to the waters, and he that hath uc money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price. Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your labour • or that which satisfieth not? hearken diligently unto me, and eat ve that which is good, and lei your soul delight itself in fatness.” (15a.55:1,2). Also the following passages from the Christian Science text book, “Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures” by Mary Baker Eddy; “In tbe material world, thought bus brought

to light with great rapidity many useful wonders. With like activity have thought’s swift pinions been rising toawrds the realm of the real, to the spiritual cause of those lower things which give impulse to inquiry. Belief in a material basis, from which may be deduced all rationality, is slowly yielding to the idea of a metaphysical basis, looking away from mutter to Mind as the cause- of every effect.' (p. 268
