Show CHRISTIAN SCIENCE ! John 5:25 provides the golden gol-den text for the lesson-sermon - on "Probation After Death" at all authorized Christian Science churches on Sunday, Oct. 28. It reads, "The hour is coming and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live." Another significant Biblical citation reads, "It is God that girdeth me with strength, and m a k e t h my way perfect." (Psalms 18:32). In Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, Mary Baker Eddy writes, "Every day makes its demands upon us for higher proofs rather than professions pro-fessions of Christian power. These proofs consist solely in the destruction of sin, sickness, and death by the power of Spirit, Spir-it, as Jesus destroyed them. This is an element of progress and progress is the law of God, whose law demands of us only what we can certainly fulfill." |
