1 3 In relation to the thc whole of bistor history w we have hwe no rio proof that it is late It is 18 not certainly known how long this race may maJ contino to appear 2 Although unrecognized as aB such Christian u has cast its halo mankind for over o ecu cen tunes Wherever cr Jove lovo has been reflected reflect reflect- ed in iu in uplifting faith true word or right there Christian Science has

th Ut true truo man mau has bas striven with mortal vanity and sensuality an and demonstrated dem deum- the he possibility of of ofa l a hi higher er understanding in tho the future 3 3 Time The most cogent reply however an and theone tho the ono one with which we aro are hero chiefly concerned concerned con is this that the thc world was not ready carli earlier or for or the tho full revelation of Christian Science Those who have havo read anything of the thc religious and aud i ideas of tho worlds world's most niost civilized nations before the tho advent ent of J Jesus sus may easily bo be disposed to toad toad- admit admit ad ad- mit that the thc ancient world at least was ai not Dot ripe ripa for tho of from a u purely purel metaphysical basis rho apprehension of man ninny many gods or semi semi-hu man the tho t tendency towards towards towards to to- wards luxurious li in living and the thc prevalent preva prova l lent ent custom of slavery were too universal uni cr sal and for tor or such a revolution revolution rC tion in in thou thought ht Despite tho tto refinements refinements refine refine- ments and elegant ant philosophies of the Greeks and Romaus their spiritual apprehensiveness ap- ap eness was as compared with that of tho the earnest and self denying Christian the most interesting panorama panorania panorama pano pano- rama ran of ancient bistor history is that of the tho Bible For as aR is well set forth b by Matthew Matthew Mat Mat- at- at thew Arnold the tho difference between this aud and other othor histories lies chie chiefly in that greater reater stress upon conduct and tho the dc- dc ec ro for righteousness s which partly partI row grow out of partly was manifested in tile the Hebraic apprehension of the thc one ono God GOIl While tho the Greek O avo us an education education edu edu- cation in in art and tho the Roman advanced our pur conception conc of civil law and order it itis itis is 15 to the tho Hebrew we ar are arc

can rea read no other history history his his- tory ton with equal profit Was not then the thc Hebrew race ready r for Christian Science By no means tho fine ideals of prophet and l' l psalmist ahn lt were ere so BO continually sunk in individual and national shortcomings s. s and later t so o hindered by a reli religious despotism unmatched un un- un mat matched bed in history for its puerilities that when tho master appeared his bis soli soil solitary tary grasp of truth awoke no adequate response even from his Ius sincerest stu stu- dents A wonderful change it is true ensued ensurd upon his final demonstration but although tho works work which followed stood out conspicuously the tIns childishness childishness childish childish- ness of the tho ago reappeared in succeeding succeed

is ia essential to recollect that these races destined as they to carr carry on ou the torch of human pro progress as we well 1 as such understanding of Christianity as the early church b bequeathed eru not direct successors to the tho Hebrews Hebrew's a loft lofty I achievements in religious ious thought Tho The Saxon or Dane Dano could no mor more have havo comprehended com coin I a chapter of Isaiah than he h I could havo bavo used the tho Athenians Athenian's chisel i or constructed a Roman aqueduct Our forefathers at tho time of the Galilean ministry were mere bloodthirsty sa savages say sav- ages only hope for whose r religious li ious futuro future 1 lay a in in a certain childlike expectancy ex ex- a characteristic which dul duly met by loving self sacrifice on tho the part of tho the missionary often brings brins tho the heathen more quickly than civilized peo peoples pIes ples can c-an bo be brou brought bt to tho truths of a anew anew anew new revelation Still the ago age for receiving receiving re re- re in cei truth with childlike enthusiasm is also that for applying D it with childish childish child child- ish zeal and thus the thc while whilo drinking in successively the essential truths of Christianity had bad hada a 3 lon long way to travel before he could behold it as a science Could tho the cru cru- see that the real man knows no sufficient cause for warfare with his kind kinds Or the haughty baron planning in penitence to ld a church to Christs Christ's name namo apprehend oven 0 in a degree deree detree de de- de- de tree gree ree that

world But besides the need of or spiritual growth before eo so r momentous a chan change o o of thought as Christian Science implies could taka tako place in human history there was a special task before the modern nations which the ancient had bad scarcely es essayed and aDd to tc which happily for tor us the Hebr Hebrew w genius was entirely averse avers This was Vas the working out to its
