No wavering, no doubt in Mrs. Eddy’s thought as to “the certainty of ultimate perfection”! True to her great discovery of the allness of God, good, and the unreality of evil, she could look into the future and behold the reign of heavenly harmony on earth, the result of the universal understanding and demonstration of perfect Being.

Nothing can wrest man out of the Father’s hand, for “It is He who hath made us, and not we ourselves,” and hath given us life everlasting. Therefore, health, harmony and immortality are the everlasting facts of being. It is so.

Let it always be borne in mind by believers in the Bible that Jesus declared the evidence of the presence of the Kingdom to be the healing of the sick, the casting out of devils, the cleansing of lepers, and the raising of the dead. Certainly these must be the evidences, for, carried to their ultimate effect, they comprehend the complete redemption of the human race.

and henceforth too He will.
He who ordains the way for us,
His purpose will fulfill.

“To successfully treat children, cut off the parent thought. Man is the offspring of God, not man. The material birth is but the false conception. Realize that matter cannot transmit good or evil. It is inert, unintelligent, and cannot be the medium of intelligence. ... Detach the thought of the child from the parent and the germs of erroneous seed of the parent thought will cease to impress the child.”

The purpose of animal magnetism is not to make us sick or poor or sinful. It is always to rob us of that precious thing, our consciousness of God, with which we can conquer the world, the flesh and the devil, and help to restore all humanity to their right relation to God.

The Christian Scientist is actively about his Father’s business. He is wide awake to the fact that evil ever keeps pace with good and he acts accordingly. He is not hurried, but to him each hour is valuable. Because God is constantly unfolding to His own idea the infinity of good, the wise man does not miss this wondrous unfoldment.

Let us refuse to allow error to attach itself to us in any way, shape, or manner. Its claim that it once had activity, presence, power, cause, intelligence, or law is a false and spurious claim, and should be seen and handled only as its last, desperate effort, since all else has failed, to get itself perpetuated as a belief of memory. Let us refuse to give it life, even to that extent.
