Show CHRISTIAN SCIENCE II Timothy 2:19 provides the golden text for the lesson sermon ser-mon on "Substance" at all authorized au-thorized Christian Science churches on Sunday, March 16. It reads, "The foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his." Other significant Biblical ci-tationes ci-tationes read, "In the, O Lord, do I put my trust: let me never be put to confusion . . . for thou art my rock and my salvation" (Psalms 71:1, 3). "Faith should enlarge its borders bor-ders and strengthen its base by resting upon Spirit instead of matter," writes Mary Baker Eddy. Continuing, she states that "In Christian Science, substance sub-stance is understood to be Spirit, Spir-it, while the opponents of Christian Chris-tian Science believe substance to be matter. They think of matter as something and almost the only thing, and of the things which pertain to Spirit as next to nothing, or as very far removed re-moved from daily experience. Christian Science takes exactly the opposite view." |
