CHRISTIAN SCIENCE CHURCHES.
“Reality” was the subject of the Lesson-Sermon in all Churches of Christ, Scientist, on Sundav. The Golden Text was Phil. 4:. S, “Whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, -whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there by any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.” Among the citations which comprised the Lesson-Sermon were the following from the Bible: “Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat- which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man hath given unto yon: for him hath God the Father sealed.’'’ (John 6: 27.) Also the following passages from the Christian Science textbook, “Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures,” by Mary Baker Eddy: “Is the sick man sinful above all others? No! but so far as be is discordant, he is not the image of God. Weary of their material lveliefs from which comes so much suffering, invalids grow more spiritual, as the error—or belief that life is in matter—yields to the reality of spiritual Life.” (p. 318.)
