Instruction in Metaphysics, Recorded by Dr. Alfred E. Baker, M.D., C.S.D., During His Association With Mary Baker Eddy




Table of Contents




Preface

Dr. Alfred E. Baker, M.D., C.S.D., was closely associated with Mary Baker Eddy during the four years that he resided in Concord, N. H., namely, from 1898 to 1902, returning to Boston to live on January 23 of that year. The knowledge of this exact date was gained from a notation in the diary of Calvin A. Frye, who, for twenty-eight years, was Mrs. Eddy’s secretary and right-hand man. Another interesting entry referring to Dr. Baker was dated December 8, 1900: “Mrs. Eddy told Dr. Baker this morning, ‘The crucifixion is the crucial between the human and the Divine and if the mortal can endure this there is no crucifixion.’ ”

The writer’s association with Dr. Baker extended over a period of years until he passed on in 1924. During that time he narrated much of a personal nature in connection with our Leader, facts that will interest Christian Scientists in years to come. The most important work during Dr. Baker’s stay in Concord appears to have been Mrs. Eddy’s reopening of the Massachusetts Metaphysical College which had been closed since 1889. The new project put into operation the authorization of teachers of Christian Science through a term of instruction in the Board of Education. Edward A. Kimball was selected by Mrs. Eddy to teach the first Normal class and Dr. Baker was chosen to teach the class in obstetrics. For over a year she trained Dr. Baker to teach this class, and the notes which he took from her lips he treasured all his life. Mrs. Eddy also shared with him many other statements relating to Christian Science which he carefully recorded.

Dr. Baker treasured these notes to such an extent that he hired a professional copyist to print them into two notebooks specially bound in soft leather. The ink used was a waterproof variety and the paper a special India stock. The first book contained the obstetric notes, and the second, the material which is contained in this volume.

In connection with the opening of the Board of Education in June, 1900, it is noteworthy that Mrs. Eddy foresaw the possibility of the criticism that the teaching in the college might not be uniform. Therefore, she arranged for Dr. Baker and Mr. Kimball to sit in at each other’s classes.

Dr. Baker told me many things about our Leader and the various items contained in this book. For instance, he related the following episode: As was Mrs. Eddy’s custom, she kept a pad and pencil near her bed. What she called Instruction was written in bed in the wee small hours of the morning. After it was completed she directed Calvin Frye to hitch up the horse, drive to Christian Science Hall and deliver what she had written to Dr. Baker, with the statement that Mrs. Eddy wanted him to have it immediately. Dr. Baker said that Mr. Frye called him from his bed to give it to him. He also stated that he knows of no instruction by Mrs. Eddy that is exactly like it. He considered it a masterpiece.

Many were the interesting things that I heard from Dr. Baker’s lips. For instance, he related that when Mary E. Speakman was made Assistant Editor of the Christian Science Sentinel, thereafter, when the postman left the Sentinel at Mrs. Eddy’s door, she invariably opened it to Miss Speakman’s article and read that first of all. The one that she liked best of Miss Speakman’s editorials was the one called, I am Well, in the issue for July 10, 1902. This editorial is worth reading to show how its incisive quality appealed to Mrs. Eddy. It asks no questions of error, but obliterates its so-called affirmative with the affirmative of Truth, without quibbling or parleying.

Envy. To have a feeling unfriendly toward another on account of coveting what he possesses. To view with admiration and desire to possess, with or without ill-will. Selfish and unfriendly grudging in view of what another enjoys. Ill-will, spite, hatred, chagrin, mortification. Discomfort or humiliation in view of one’s own condition. To emulate, vie. Selfish ill-will toward another because of his superior success, endowment or possession. Sometimes in a mild sense the feeling that another’s lot or fortune is desirable, accompanied with a sense of one’s own deficiency. Jealous suspicions. One is envious of that which is another’s and to which he himself has no right or claim. He is jealous of intrusion upon that which is his own, over which he maintains a right or claim. Suspicious of another from unfavorable indications or from a knowledge of wrong in his previous conduct and even without reason. Repugnance at the prosperity or good of another. Compare synonyms of doubt. Pain, aversion, or hatred felt at sight of excellence, happiness or prosperity of others. Envy is therefore that grudging sense of relative inferiority. Harmful mischief.

Jealousy Apprehensive or suspicious; being displaced or outdone by a rival, especially in the love of another; revengeful on account of fickle treatment or slighted love; earnestly and anxiously suspicious; suspicious fear; vigilant in guarding; watchful; fearful; doubtful; demanding excessive worship and love; restlessness; greedy; grasping; ambition; secretiveness.

Anger — Lust. The natural passion or emotion of displeasure and antagonism aroused by injury or insult, real or imagined, and directed against the cause thereof. Sudden and strong displeasure. Inflammation, as of any bodily organ or tissue. Animosity, fury, impatience, indignation, irritation, offense, rage, resentment, temper, wrath. Displeasure is the mildest and the most general mood. Anger is like all violent passions, necessarily brief. Resentment, feeling back or feeling over again. Brooding over injuries. Exasperation, a hot superficial intensity of anger demanding instant expression. Rage drives one beyond the bounds of prudence or discretion. Fury is stronger yet and sweeps one away into uncontrollable violence. Anger is personal and usually selfish, aroused by real or supposed wrong to one’s self. Indignation is impersonal and unselfish. Anger is always a sin. Animosity. The word originally meant to choke or squeeze. Always handle lust where anger manifests itself. One is physical, the other is mental passion. The root is the same. Discomposure of mind. That which pains or afflicts, or the passive feeling which it produces. Trouble, affliction, sorrow.

Fear To regard with dread, fright or terror. Apprehension of doubt, anxiety, suspicion. An emotion excited by threatening evil or impending pain, accompanied with a desire to avoid or escape it. Uneasiness about anything, solicitude, consternation, dismay, dread, fright, horror, misgiving, timidity, trepidation. The emotion of pain or uneasiness caused by the sense of impending danger. Dread of what may happen in the future.

Hatred A sustained feeling of bitter aversion, antipathy, animosity, enmity, grudge, hostility, malice, malignity, repugnance, spite. An emotional state of aversion and abhorrence. Detestation. Anger is sudden and brief; hatred, lingering and enduring; malice is the active intent to injure. Ill-will, malevolence, resentment. Repugnance applies to that which one feels when summoned to endure that which he instinctively draws back from. Aversion is the turning away of the mind or feelings from some person or thing or action. Hate as applied to persons is intense aversion, usually with disposition to injure. Malice is direct pressing towards a result. Malignity is deep, lingering, venomous, though often impotent to act. Rancor is cherished malignity that has soured and festered and is virulent and implacable. Spite is petty malice that delights to inflict stinging pain. Grudge is the disposition to retaliate; revenge is a determination to repay real and fancied offense and injury. Resentment, which is the best word of the three, always holds itself to be justifiable, but looks less certainly to action than grudge and revenge. Simple goodness may arouse the hatred of the wicked; they will be moved to revenge only by what they deem an injury or affront.

Malice To bear malice toward; hate. A disposition or intent to injure another or others for the gratification of anger, jealousy, hatred, revenge. Willfully formed design to do another an injury. An evil act or influence. Specific in astrology; an injurious effect from some star. Evil, wicked intent; spiteful. Harmful action or effect. That kind of evil intent which constitutes the aggravation of guilt, especially murder.

Revenge To exact, inflict punishment, evil or injury, whether positive or negative, in retaliation for; avenge, especially in a vindictive, malicious or spiteful manner. We avenge an insult; we revenge ourselves upon an enemy. The act of making return for an injury by doing another injury; returning evil for evil; the infliction of punishment in the spirit of personal retaliation. Vindictiveness; retribution; the impersonal visitation of the doom of righteous law (false theology). A settled or continued desire to injure or inflict pain in retaliation. The affliction or punishment whether by action or non-action (mentally) in the spirit of personal retaliation.

Self-knowledge heals.

John 17th chapter

Ephesians 2:10 to end

No person or thing in all the universe, no claim of circumstance, can by any possibility interfere between me and all joy and all good. You may falsely think that something stands between you and your heart’s desire, and go through life here with that desire unfulfilled; but it is not so. Deny it, and you will find yourself free, and good will begin to flow into you, and you will see clearly that nothing can stand between you and your own.

God sees in man the perfect reflection of Himself. God’s thoughts of us are unchanging. To help ourselves or others, we must think God’s thoughts after Him. Cast aside sense testimony, accepting only the spiritual facts.

“If God be for us, who can be against us?” Sensuous, willful malpractice has no power to distract or confuse me so that I cannot perceive the Truth clearly; it can neither make me believe that I am suffering from old beliefs or poisons nor make me see its image, nor fear its mental argument. No danger can befall, for everything is in God’s keeping.

To affirm anything is to assert its possibility; to assert it, even in the face of all the contrary evidence. You may not be able to see how by simply affirming a thing to be true, which to human reasoning or sight does not seem true at all, we can bring this to pass, but we can. Compel yourself to cease all quibbling, and go to work to prove the rule, each one for himself.

This beautiful presence all about us and within us is the substance of every good which we can possibly desire; yea, infinitely more than we are capable of desiring, for, “Eye hath not seen; nor ear heard, neither hath it entered into the heart of man, the things that God hath prepared for them that love Him.” “Thou shalt decree a thing and it shall be established unto thee.”

There is but one power in the universe, and that is God. Good is omnipotent. Apparent evils are not entities or things of themselves; they are simply an apparent absence of good, just as darkness is an apparent absence of light. But God, our good, is omnipresent, therefore, the apparent absence of good — evil — is unreal; it is only an appearance of evil. There is no reality, life nor intelligence in matter for the “things which are seen are temporal, but the things which are not seen are eternal.”

Pain, sickness, poverty, old age, death, cannot master me, for they are not real. There is nothing in all the universe for me to fear, for greater is He that is within me — true self — than he that is in the world. God says, “I will contend with him that contendeth with thee.” He says that to every child of His, and every person is His child.

Do you have any difficulty in healing? If so, strive for a higher sense of the nothingness of matter. Do not care to search into causation for there is no cause or effect there. All is Mind, perfect and eternal.

I am the image and likeness of God. No mortal nor mortal opposer of Truth can confine this image in a mortal body to mar or molest it, because divine Mind alone governs it and holds it forever free from mortal touch. I cannot be seen or known or even thought of mortally. I dwell in the spiritual realm of the real.

As malicious animal magnetism is only a false claim and really nothing, it cannot separate me nor anyone else from the best and greatest good, nor limit my supply in any way. It cannot touch me with a claim of poverty in any way in myself, nor in anyone, for Spirit is my unlimited source of supply.

I am not dependent on any personality for my needs. Malicious animal magnetism cannot hide my work, nor blind my judgment, nor make me feel failure, nor lack, nor incapacity. God gives to each and every one of his children abundantly all they need, and that supply is not — cannot be — hidden at any time by any mortal mind law or claim, for all laws and claims of mortal mind are false laws, and of the no-mind which has no real existence. It is destroyed by Truth NOW.

I was born free, not in bondage to anything nor to anyone, for Principle leads me ever. Infinity includes only the man who is well, and all he needs. There is no mind to put forth a law of reversal. Love governs all, and there is only one governor. Mortal mind cannot make a law to reverse God’s law, for God’s law is not reversible.

Do not care who thinks about you nor what they think. All true thoughts are from God and are good. There are no other thoughts for God has no opposite. God’s grace is sufficient for every need; and we must know that good thoughts are power, and evil thoughts are powerless when met by Truth.

Our rightful heritage is satisfaction, for God supplies all our needs.

There is no dreaded future and no clouded past. Admit only thoughts that you wish externalized.

Truth does govern our business, and there are no failures nor reverses; God directs our business in Truth and the power of right thought regulates everything.

God has made all provision for us and no legal provisions nor mortal mind limitations can keep us from our God-given heritage. The only God there is can never forsake us. God never fails in His promises, and the only reason we think He does is through faulty consciousness, which is destroyed.

The only satisfaction is in knowing God is with us. It silences grief and exterminates poverty. “Right alone is irresistible, permanent, and eternal.” “Human pride forfeits spiritual power.” (M. W.)

Whenever you treat a patient, include in your understanding of the case the idea that no ignorant or malicious mind can affect the case, and there will be no relapse. Progress is the law of the infinite, and finite views are but suppositions and beliefs. Realize this as a law for every case you treat. A mortal cannot make laws and the real man is not the lawmaker.

Mortal mind is to be denied; Spirit overcomes it. We must cease to admit in our thinking the reality and power in themselves of sin, sickness and death, of misery, pain, evil in all forms; and we must steadfastly and persistently think the Truth which stands opposite to them. We do in this way overcome discordant conditions of consciousness now. Everyone who persists in this course many times each day will have signs of the lessening of all evil.

God gives you daily supplies. Never ask for tomorrow. It is enough that Love is an ever-present help; and if you trust, never doubting, you will have all you need every moment.

What a glorious inheritance is ours through the understanding of omnipotent Love! We cannot want or have more. This assurance is “Peace, be still,” to all.

Inasmuch as I am a child of God, I must be whole. I am perfect; I am free. I have all that I need, for God is the source of all my supply, and His supply is infinite. I have neither fear nor care for I dwell in Spirit and not in matter. No condition of the body nor the presence of any other personality is essential to my happiness, for God is the spring of my joy. I am not in danger; no one can harm me nor rob me of any good, for I am the reflection of Life, Truth, and Love.

I am not grieved, never disappointed, for I live in the infinite. My only life is hid with Christ in God; therefore I must be immortal. Nothing can be lost or die in God.

We must talk more closely with God, bring Him nearer to us, more like the old style of praying. We must feel and know that God is what we live in, like the atmosphere or the sunlight. It is all about us. We must rest more in God. When we have a patient, do as well as we can, and LET God do the healing.

If your children need treatment, do not sit up all night and treat, but treat yourself, and go to bed and to sleep. Give up error to God. Ask for our daily bread, enough for today. A child with its mother does not ask all the time if it will have clothing tomorrow or next week, but runs along happy and trusts its mother’s care. So must we do. Have that trust in the one Father-Mother God, and without fear. If we suffer, do not fear; suffer it out. The true thought brings the error to the surface, and if we fear not, it will pass off.

There is no personality, and to know this is more important than to know there is no disease.

Do not doctor the error much, but make yourself so conscious of the opposite Truth that the error will be destroyed.

I am MAN.

There is no law that can work against me. The only law does everything for me. The perfection of the divine Mind must be externalized here and now.

There is no unconscious action. All is the action of Mind that is always conscious. All is the voluntary action of Mind and its manifestation; hence there is no disease in process of development in my body.

The fetters that bind me are falling. The fetters that bind my understanding are falling, for the absolute good is guiding me into the land of Truth through Christian Science.

There is no one known to my personality, within my circle or without it, naming the name of Christian Science — loyal or disloyal — that can ignorantly or maliciously malpractice upon me. Neither can malpractice or mesmerism prevent me from recognizing such error and handling it.

Nothing can come to me except that which comes from God, and that is always good.

I am a law unto myself. There is no ignorant, malicious, willful, superstitious, sympathetic, intentionally directed malpractice from theosophy, palmistry, phrenology, occultism, witchcraft, necromancy, black or white magic, spiritualism, animal magnetism, hypnotism, mental science, free love, malpractitioners, trustees, directors, laymen, occultists, materia medica, or from Roman Catholicism, neighbors, friends, enemies, acquaintances or relatives, that can mesmerize me or influence me or confuse my spiritual continuity, or interfere with my spiritual work, or cloud my vision (mental), or darken my consciousness; neither can it impede my progress in my true understanding of God.

Man reflects the wisdom, the intelligence, the ability, the power, and the law of divine Mind. Man is the understanding of God; therefore I do understand God as revealed in Christian Science. I AM MAN.

If you but knew the sublimity of your hope –

The grandeur of your outlook,

The infinite capacity of your being,

You would let error kill itself.

Error comes to you for life And you give it the only life it has.

Your joy no man can take from you, and your peace no woman can take from you; the masculine thought (in the mortal) representing sensuality, brutality, animality, etc., etc. Jesus often spoke of his joy and peace, which also should be enjoyed by his followers, and which the world could not give, neither take away.

All the mechanism of his body was preserved and rested until the ascension. He ate with his disciples, showing he could digest his food with material functions. I always preserve in my thought (as I know Jesus did) the image of the actual and harmonious functions of the body.

Realize to yourself daily, more than once, that the fields are already white to harvest; that “Divine Love always has met, and always will meet every human need,” — the need of work as well as any other; that Mind is active and you reflect this divine activity; that the source of supply supplies your every need; that there is plenty of work for all; that yours belongs to you, no one else can do it, and it comes to you direct, and the supply is abundant; and know all the time that this is so.

Never let a sense of lack of anything stay a moment with you. It is rank error and breeds all sorts of disease and difficulty.


Expressions Given at Various Times by Mrs. Eddy

There is no aggressive mental suggestion directed or undirected that can keep me from the love of God, the life of Christ, and the clear light of Christian Science as revealed by the revelator, Mary Baker Eddy.

First, find out what error is trying to do.

Second, keep it from doing it, or know that it cannot do it.

Third, see that it is not done.

Now Truth hammers error. If you hold to error you get the hammering.

Evil is always zero “0” until you put your unit with it (that is, take it into consciousness).

Truth does mighty things when left to its own vitality.

Supply is continuous, ever-present, available — prove it.

It does not take time to think right.

I thank thee, dear Father, that there is nothing between Thee and this little child.

According to your spiritual growth, you will hear and see things.

Loving enough to say “Our Father” we will heal instantly.

Error has no life except the life we give it.

Disturbed thought needs healing, not nursing.

A lie has no voice and no audience.

A demonstration is never made until you see the manifestation.

Mortal material body is human consciousness, Eden — and in reality there is none. Look long enough and you will see perfection.

My individual Christ Jesus will go before me and lead me in the work.

By their fruits we shall know them, not by their roots (ancestry).

“A lamb which is the symbol of innocence, is one of the ideas included in the compound idea that expresses God in full. A tree, symbol of beauty and aspiration, is another simple idea and portion of man or the compound idea of God, and so of the entire universe.” Taken from 9th edition of S. & H., 1883.

“Mortal thought has never known what God’s thought is that we name the sun.” From old edition of S. & H.

“Mesmerism is the error that leaves man at the mercy of matter, will, caprice and mortal mind; God, Spirit, never mesmerized man or matter.” From first edition.


Law Suit

Woodbury Case

God governs it. Justice, Truth and Love govern it, and nothing else can or does affect it in the least. I have faith in God. I know that faith as a grain of mustard seed does remove mountains. I have no faith in evil. I know that it cannot do anything. It is nothing. God is All. The wrath of man shall praise Him and the remainder of wrath shalt Thou restrain. All things work together for good to them who love the Lord (given to six students to work with on the Woodbury case).

“God has placed us all in our orbit and, like the stars, we are held there by His power. One cannot interfere with another, and none can fall out.”

I have taken you up into the mount and shown you the promised land, but you will have to walk every step of the way there yourself.

When all evil is destroyed we have eternity to know God (to unfold in good).

Digestion is harmonious action. Assimilation is unity of ideas. Nutrition is life.

God knows I live. I am not in the body, and the body cannot talk to me.

Lean on Him (God). Trust Him. Understand Him and He will give you the foresight, wisdom, and capacity to execute His will and benefit His Cause. S1. V. 10.

He who supplies all good will fill all vacancies in His own way; and He will fill them with those who are spiritually equipped to take up the cross and follow whithersoever He leadeth.

Regarding vaccination; there is only the mental vaccination; I would take the point of Spirit which is Truth and prick the human affections, then inoculate with divine Love, circulating the system of thought, and the liability of contagious disease, sin, or sickness will cease.


Instruction

Keep your aim; stick to your text, and have faith in your understanding of the letter of Christian Science: for instance, the claim is paralysis. Your aim is, there is no inaction, there is action. Your text is, God is almighty, and you know it, and error is a lie and is powerless. Your faith is, God is All, and you know in whom you trust.

This will win every time; this is the way Jesus healed the man who was healed of blindness, after two trials; stick to it, and know we want to, and can heal in every case. We know the Truth, and we must be more positive that we know it. We are not hypnotists nor hypnotized.

Always commence and continue ten or fifteen minutes on no fear, and if your patient is a Christian Scientist, say, “You can help yourself.” Argue strong: No laws but the law of Love. Think up no comparison or correspondence with error (as for instance, as to what a leg is in Mind). When treating of bones; e.g., know there are none, hence there are no stiff joints or painful joints or rheumatism, chalky calculus, or other lie. When treating liver, know there is no liver, arsenic, morphine, opium, affecting the belief of liver, no rejection of food, no pain.

The whole matter is covered by knowing that there is no poison nor effects of poison produced through a lie. Here name arsenic and the cyanide of potassium and morphine, and know that neither you nor your patient can be made to believe a lie, also, if either one did not believe it, there would be immediate relief, recovery. It is easier in belief for the practitioner not to believe in disease than for the sufferer. The only proof one has that he does not believe in disease is that his thought of the disease destroys it.

Be not deceived, whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he reap. If one sows a half belief the case will linger; if one sows a whole belief in the understanding the case will show it. The error is to think one believes what one does not, and understands what one does not, and then to console one’s self with this self-deceived state of thought. We have no possible proof that the state of our thought is right unless the effect of the state of thought produces the right result on the patient. Human reason or human imagination is as material as pain. Reasoning or reverie is as erroneous when treating the sick as a sensation of fever would be. The spiritual attitude and altitude gained is the measure of success in healing. Human love can be mistaken; if it is divine, it removes fear and heals quickly. If it is human and yet not at all impure, it does not heal. I name these deep points in metaphysics to show what are wheat and what are tares.


A Correction

In the last Sentinel was the following question: “If all matter is unreal, why do we deny the existence of disease in the material body, and not the body itself?”

We deny first the existence of disease itself, because we can meet this negative more readily than we can negative all that the body affirms. It is written in Science and Health, “There are degrees in the material or human beliefs, and a harmonious step is one step out of error; a belief of health is an improvement upon a belief of sickness.”

Thus it is that our great exemplar, Jesus of Nazareth, first takes up the subject. He does not require the last step to be taken first. He came to the world not to destroy the law of being, but to fulfill it in righteousness. He restored the diseased body to its normal action, functions and organization and in explanation of his deeds he said, “Suffer these things to be so now, for thus it becometh us to fulfill all righteousness.” Job said, “In my flesh shall I see God.” Neither the Old nor the New Testament furnishes reasons or examples for the destruction of the material body, but its restoration to life and health as the scientific proof of God with us.

The power and prerogative of Truth are to destroy all disease and to raise the dead — even the self-same Lazarus. The spiritual body came with the ascension.

Jesus demonstrated the divine Principle of Christian Science when he presented his material body absolved from death and the grave. The introduction of pure abstractions in Christian Science without their correlative leaves its divine Principle unexplained, tends to confuse the mind of the reader, and ultimates in what Jesus denounced, namely, straining out gnats and swallowing camels.

A belief of personal sense that is governed by the Truth is a harmonious belief. A harmonious belief governed by Truth is spiritual sense — understanding.

Jesus, in the silent tomb, spiritualized his personal, corporeal body to the extent of presenting it sound; then he ascended, laid off corporeality.

All his mechanism was restored and preserved until the ascension. He ate with the disciples, showing you he could digest his food with the natural functions.

I always preserved the actual harmonious being in my thought just as Jesus did.

During parturition your mind can assist your patient, or the prospective mother. At the birth let your mind govern the action, prevent pain and control the presentation of the babe. Mind is master of all the rules and conditions pertaining to obstetrics. Mind governs the results in every respect contingent on delivery and the condition of the infant and mother and treatment thereof. But if you, in certain cases, cannot demonstrate this, then call a surgeon mid-wife, but only as Jesus was baptized, saying, “Suffer it to be so now.”

I will name, before it slips my memory, that I claim Christian Science admits the personality of God, but calls it the infinite Person. Man is the reflection of God, but if God was impersonal, man would be thus. The term infinite Person seems to be a paradox, but in this instance it is scientific sense. All that is must be included in the word infinite. And we have in men and things individuality, and this we name in our grammars, persons and things; hence, let us cover the objection that we disbelieve in God as Person after the manner aforesaid.

What thou needest to know is, that mortal mind has translated the body and its functions into matter; and immortal Mind gives back its original with the functions preserved and harmonious, but not as nor in matter, but as in Mind.

Remember, Jesus was a carpenter before he was a Saviour of men.

Remember, God is the business man.


The Trinity

To class of seventy Father — is man’s divine Principle, Love.

Son — is God’s man, His image or spiritual idea.

Holy Ghost — is divine Science, the Messiah, or Comforter. Jesus in the flesh was the prophet, or way-shower to Life, Truth, Love, and out of the flesh Jesus was the Christ, the spiritual idea, or image and likeness of God.

Evil cannot make an avenue of me to produce a manifestation of error, for there is no evil; and this declaration made every hour makes me invulnerable to evil.

Instantaneous healing –

“I and the Father are one.”

One Word — the Word of God, Scriptures and Science and Health.
One Reader — the voice of God. God is All-in-all.
Nothing can go from or come to the Readers but Love.

The mesmerists come trooping in, but, thank God, I am ready for them; they never get in.

In the opening of the seals, they shall not buy nor sell unless they have the number of the beast.

Every part of your body is perfect and spiritual, and always at rest.

Mr. Kimball said, “In a recent conversation with Mrs. Eddy, I said, ‘Mother, I am telling the people that no matter what the error to be overcome is, they must always remember, “My grace is sufficient for thee.” Am I making this too strong?’ ‘No,’ she said, ‘you are not making it strong enough. There is absolutely no cause for failure, or discouragement, or sorrow. Every Scientist must put absolutely out of his thought the belief that he must sometime change to another plane of existence. God is Life. There is no other plane of existence, and we must make our plans for immortality — stop talking about death. There is no death to Life.’ ”

Do not say there is no intelligence in food. “The earth brings forth food for man’s use” (Science and Health). And we must reflect divine intelligence that enables us to use that food; adhere to the statement that divine intelligence directs man, and governed by it, man eats, sleeps, walks and talks harmoniously.

Depict the real Christ; the man-made is not the image.

Oh, how much we win and lose by taking up the cross, lose self and win Love, lose the pleasure of meeting often our friends, and win the soul of friendship.


Reversal

Truth cannot be reversed, it bears the fruit of health and holiness. Life cannot be reversed; it bears the fruit of immortal harmony. Love cannot be reversed; it destroys all fears and heals the sick and sinner. Nobody can suffer or produce any suffering for speaking the Truth. Nobody can affect others thru a lie (10-27-00).

Malicious animal magnetism’s false claims cannot separate me from God, from Christ, from divine Science, from Science and Health, nor from my teacher, Mary Baker Eddy. There is no malice, no hatred, no revenge, no fear, no remorse, and animal magnetism cannot suggest any of these claims as a power to govern me, and cannot make me an avenue through which any of these claims of personality can work evil to myself or any other; cannot suggest through any personality any of these lying claims, nor make a law that I shall in any form manifest them.

Animal magnetism cannot make me restless or dissatisfied; cannot suggest to me any doubt of the absolute Truth of Christian Science; cannot make a law that I cannot heal; that I cannot succeed; that I will not heal my patients; cannot frighten me or prevent me from healing others; cannot darken my thought, nor dim my spiritual perception; cannot produce or bring back a belief with an argument or poison of any kind (name).

“It is our pride that makes another’s criticism rankle, our self-will that makes another’s deed offensive, our egotism that feels hurt by another’s self-assertion.” Miscellaneous Writings

Spare the oil, the balm of repentance; and the wine, the newly inspired love of Christian Science.

Grant, oh my God, that neither the joy nor the sorrow of this period shall have visited my heart in vain. Make me wise and strong to the performance of immediate duties and ripen me by whatever means Thou seest best for the performance of those that lie beyond.

Love divine is impersonal, pure, universal and impartial.
Human love is personal, impure, limited and partial.

Love does not fight, but stands, and standing wins.

To a student: “Do you love yourself?” He hesitated because he did not quite understand. “Why, you love God, don’t you?” “Yes.” “And you love God’s idea?” “Yes.” “Why you are that idea.”


Substance of What Mother Said From Her Porch to the Students Gathered There in 1900

Beloved Christian Scientists:

I greet you. I thank you and the six thousand. We have had the blessed communion season together. It has been blessed to you all; behold, you have been weighed in the balance and have not been found wanting.

Now, dear children, Christian Scientists…you are the walls of the walls of the earth. This week has been a memorable week to you and to me, coming to commune with our Lord. Carry back the glad tidings to the other six thousand.

Thirty-four years ago, in Boston, I took on myself the cross. I said –

Jesus, I my cross have taken,

All to leave and follow thee.

Naked, poor, despised, forsaken,

Thou from hence my all shalt be.

Perish every fond ambition,

All I’ve sought or hoped or known,

Yet how rich is my condition,

God and heaven are still my own.

Let the world despise and leave me,

They have left my Saviour too;

Human hearts and looks deceive me –

Thou art not like them, untrue.

Oh, while Thou dost smile upon me,

God of wisdom, Love, and might,

Foes may hate and friends disown me,

Show Thy face and all is bright.

When you see the little room upstairs with the swing, think of Mother at twilight, thinking, pondering and praying. I would say to all those who have come from far and near, showing their gratitude to The Mother Church of Christian Science, through me, Good-bye, Good-bye, which in the Saxon means, “God bless you.”

Do not give life to evil by attaching it to a person or thing; it cannot live without a body; man is one. There is but one infinite manifestation. No error can attach itself to man, and why deceive ourselves by thinking that it can be so.

Electricity cannot convey poison to the nerve centers.

Rebuke error, keep the standard firm and still, live in the consciousness of good.

No one is loyal to Truth, to himself, to his God, or is worthy of heaven, who has not faith, pluck and patience enough to endure, without fainting, apparent defeat and delayed rewards.

I arise in the strength of Spirit to resist everything that is unlike God; I am spiritual. I know I am one with Christ in God, who has all dominion. There is no error or sin that can mesmerize me into seeing or feeling a body. All is Life, and Love, and good.

Jesus was so good that he had to deny constantly that he was God.

There is no malignant animal magnetism to prevent me from reflecting light. There is no self-mesmerism to hide me from Truth or Truth from me. There is no mental malpractice to harm me, to affright or touch me, for divine Love surrounds me. Intelligence, substance, power are the source of my being. There is no creative power but God, no universe but Life, and Truth, and Love.

If God is the only power (and He is); if God is the only presence (and He is); I am not met by another power and presence to pain, fetter, and befool me.

Man is image, not person — made by the Word, and expresses the Word.

Of two evils, one must always choose the least; and of two evils the wife alone must make the choice, and above all choose the least evil. A loss of affection is a great loss. A wife can lead the element of love up higher, from the basement to the upper chamber.

Never resent a wound from anyone but always leave it to God to avenge and heal. He will rightly reward, you cannot. Forgiveness is forgetfulness of sin, disease and all error in others and in ourselves. No wrong is forgiven until it is forgotten. If this is not done, it works like remembering disease; it makes you a sinner; it grows chronic and incurable. If we do not do this it does us more harm than our enemies.

You have no faith in evil. You have no power to do evil, or cause others to sin. You cannot take away from anyone mind, or any of its faculties. There is no power in evil; good is the only power. You cannot poison anyone; there is no poison. These are God’s laws and you cannot escape them.

May each day unfold to you the manifold treasures of Christian Science, and may you become the rich partakers thereof. Remember that the power to heal is gained through peace, wisdom, Love, dominion over self, and good-will toward men. You possess these graces of Spirit, or Christ-power, only by loving God — good — supremely. After this cometh the recognition of but one Mind, which enables you to know that there is no power or presence that can resist good, or prevent your prayers being effectual. While you remain in this attitude of mind, you are obedient to the Principle of your being, and naught can hinder your healing the sick and the sinner.

Impersonal evil cannot use me as an avenue through which to express any discord; there is no evil. This hourly declaration will keep me invulnerable from error.

Can the dull pen tell the heart’s errand? Can words depict feelings and speak the language of God? If they can then will this bring sweet comfort to you, lift you to a realization of a great joy, and a great gain. Never is God so good, so loving, so near to His loved child, as when she needs Him most. Now you are sharing His benediction, His hand is taking thine, and from the night leading thee swiftly into light. “Sweet are the uses of adversity.” The gospel of Christ was a gospel of glory that never could have been given except through a gospel of suffering. Let your joy be full; the time has never been before when you were so worthy to bear his cross as now. Take his cup, darling, drink and give thanks. “Tribulation worketh patience, and patience experience, and experience hope, for the love of God is shed abroad in your heart.” Your husband is not dead; your thought of him is not necessarily sad; he lives and is wiser now than he ever could have been without this lesson. Do not sigh to see him; the evidences of the senses never could, never can, bless him, or you. Be happy, darling, in knowing that he is cared for by infinite Love that is doing more for you both in this seeming affliction than Love, altho boundless, could in any other way. This Love is caring for you in the divine order of progress, and will hide you under His feathers, and under His wing shalt thou rest and rejoice.

Your sweet, sad letter at hand. May the dear Love that wounds to heal bind up the wounds and pour into your life the pure sense of having been tested by chastisement and found legitimate. Yes, you are right that the avenger of Truth stabs us through those we love most, as much as to say, “You have no moral authority for loving aught but God and His likeness.” What is our remedy? It is to watch, work and pray to make first one’s self and then all others into that likeness, patient, meek, loving; then the warfare is comparatively ended and we are saved from a false selfhood. Oh, may the dear Love that knows no lack be so near that you catch the contact and are comforted. My own trials can never be spoken. They are beyond the present sense of mortals. But the one dear Love binds up my broken heart and bleeding head, and I lean on its breast till I get strength to stand before the next volley. Let us rejoice that the captain of our salvation is training us for higher service.

I am the image and likeness of God. No mortal or mortal opposer of Truth can confine this image in any mortal body to mar or molest it, for divine Mind holds it intact, forever free from mortal touch.

The student is not yet where he can heal without the argument or hold himself right. Malicious animal magnetism is at work to deprive loyal ones of this power, and mentally persuade them not to argue. Why? Because this truth-telling is a great neutralizer of its lies. Keep up your mental argument on the side of Truth more than ever before, and tell others to do this. Be watchful and every day ask Love to keep you from temptation and give you daily bread — grace to know and do God’s will.

Try to realize the omnipotence of Love and Life, the inbreathing of His presence. Arouse yourself to a true sense of God’s power, the eternal and ever-conscious Mind that knows only Life. Fear and death are powerless in even a faint perception of the meaning of these declarations of Truth.

Mortal mind cannot send me a belief that I cannot heal through Mind; cannot make me believe there is any law, or so-called law, of mental malpractice that I cannot break and annul. Sin cannot hold a patient. There is no man to treat.

Tumor — false action. There is no action opposed to God, no opposite to Truth. Mortal mind is the root, or claim, or claimant, and that root is a sense of personality — my personality — it is a myth. Love reforms and nothing else does. Handle prenatal mesmerism. God is law, and manifests law. Unity of Principle and idea is the only marriage.

Your inquiry — what is the wedding garment? — embraces a long answer, but I can name its hem for you to touch. It is first, the desire above all to be Christ-like, to be tender, merciful, forgetting self, and caring for others’ salvation; to be temperate, humble, pure, whereby appetite and passion cease to claim your attention, and you are not discouraged to wait on God — to wait for the tests of your sincerity — longing to be good, and seeking through daily prayer for divine teaching. If you continue to ask, you will receive, providing you comply with what you must do for yourself, in order to be thus blessed.

Reading or listening to my teaching the truths of Christian Science will not do for you what the constant seeking and knowing and following will do for you.

Run, and not be weary. Let our activity in Truth be equal to our sense of running.

God is our source of supply, and supplies every need. He is infinite, and in Him there is no lack, no loss, no want. Mind holds all in position.

In building a church we have the devil to overcome, and he thinks he can stop the work by cutting off the supply. God is our Father and He is rich; His resources are inexhaustible, and whatsoever we ask for we shall receive. The devil tries to make us indifferent and ungrateful.

An effect of animal magnetism is to make you think you have all your old beliefs back again.

The need of the hour is simplicity, meekness and obedience.

The action of error is to tell you that as mortals you have no mind; it says Science and Health tells you so. To believe this is to lose your free moral agency. This evil must be met by a counteracting influence of prayer. Let Truth be heard above error and God will bless your efforts.

Handle death and then relapse. Relapse is the result of affection of the mucous membrane. Relapse is mesmerism. Be positive in knowing that there is no animal magnetism. I KNOW THIS.

Three steps: First, original sin. Second, malicious mental inoculation. Third, man’s sinless, pure origin. By these steps we rise from mortal sensuousness and sensitiveness into the true understanding of Life and being, into a realization of freedom and power as the idea of God.

Since malicious animal magnetism knows all the arguments of Christian Science it is necessary to declare that no argument of mental malpractice can make null and void, antidote or reverse, any statement of Christian Science that you make.

We must talk more closely to God. Bring Him nearer to us, more like the old style of praying. We must feel and know that God is what we live in — like the atmosphere and sunlight. It is all about us. We must rest more in God. When treating a patient do as well as you can and let God do the healing. If your children need treatment, don’t sit up all night, but treat yourself and go to bed, and go to sleep. Give up more to God. Ask for daily bread, enough for today. A child with its mother does not ask all the time for tomorrow and next week, if it will have food and clothing, but runs along happy and trusts its mother’s care. So must we do. Have trust in the one Father-Mother God, and without fear. If you suffer, do not fear, suffer it out. The true thought brings the error to the surface, and if we fear not it will pass off. Put physical ailments in the mental. Know they are the result of fear, anger, envy, or some wrong thinking, and do not fear the physical. Just ask for more light, more goodness.

Do not address the individuality, but talk to yourself as you would if you had a belief. Say to yourself — such an individual cannot deceive me as to himself or others; has no power over me. I don’t believe his lies, and cannot be made to believe them. He cannot frighten me. Evil is powerless and God is All, etc. Argue that you cannot be made to believe that you cannot protect yourself from his influence.

Unless malpractice is exposed by Christian Scientists, the world will be little benefited by Christian Science.

Students must avoid mesmerism. They are not Christian Scientists if they do not throw down mesmerism. Self-immolation is essential; fear to offend God a wholesome idea. Money for God’s work comes through us as His stewards. It is God, not man, who furnishes the means. When the receiver of Christian Science funds is right, money will flow in.

From what appears I fear you did not quite understand my few words of caution, so as to take the wise way of meeting all error, and therefore, I name this way: Never address the person who errs by treating them mentally or treating yourself against it. Never recognize the person in your argument — you must not. But take it up — the error only — and never doctor the error much, but make yourself so conscious of the opposite Truth, that the error disappears; e.g. know that nothing can come to you, or go from you, but what God sends, and therefore, that no mortal mind can influence you, for only one Mind exists, and this is immortal Love. Overcome the evil mind with good. Never talk to it, or of it, but hold steadfastly to good, Love, and do not feel that any other power exists.

This will deliver you. If you dwell in thought on any person, it will hinder you from overcoming personality in your healing and casting out sin. There is no personality, and this is more important to know than that there is no disease. Your life-long mistake has been your strong sense of personality. Drop it, and remember you can never rid yourself of the seeming effects from a personality while holding in mind this personality. The way is to put it wholly out of mind, and keep before your thought the right model.

Not how much we love one another, but how we love. Passing under the rod of the shepherd means to keep the sheep from jostling one another as they enter the fold.

If you could but see the sublimity of your hope, the infinite capacity of your being, the grandeur of your outlook, you would just let error kill itself. You give it the only life it has; it comes to you to give it life, and you prolong its life by giving it even a temporary sense of life.

To sit down and treat yourself and others for animal magnetism is worse than useless. You must find your protection in declaring and living good.

It is not safe to change oars in the current. Courage, stand. When the wind blows the wheat bows its head and does not receive the full blast. It is the empty kernel that keeps its head up and receives the full blow.

Do not take Catholics for patients or students. Leave that problem for future generations.

We are quick to see faults in others and to have the same in ourselves. The only avenue error has to us is our own personal condition of thought.

When you are troubled or disturbed about any matter, that is animal magnetism. God’s method of work is quiet, and brings rest and harmony.

In class: Can our errors be met and overcome other than by crucifixion?

No, there is no other way, else Jesus would not have been crucified. Each one must pass through Gethsemane and up Calvary’s height to the cross.


A Child’s Desire

Dear Father, I want to love Thee supremely; and to be unselfish, kind, patient, temperate, good and pure.

I want to honor my earthly parents and to be able to uplift humanity.

I know that God is good, and that He has made me in His own likeness, harmonious and immortal; and I will strive daily not to make myself in belief appear otherwise. I do thank Him now and forever. Amen.


Prayer

Oh, Love, just take me in. Give me one Mind, one consciousness, and enable me to love my neighbor as myself.


The Watch Prayer

All is Love, peace, and harmony.

Heaven is right here.

Truth reigns.

There is no strife.

Peace, be still.

Truth has destroyed the error.

Love has destroyed all hate.

All is peace, Love and joy.

I can is the son of I am.

Oh, God, I ask for Love divine to lead me, not to be tempted or yield to temptation in any way. I ask for wisdom and grace to know and do just what God would have me do.

I am not the light, but the window through which the light shines.


Benediction

Thou dost lift the burdens from the over-burdened heart.

Thou knowest the ones who rejoice,

And dost comfort such as mourn.

Thou dost waken the sinner from his dream
of sin.

Thou dost waken the sick from his dream
of sickness.

Thou dost all earth’s shadows flee.

And the long night wake, and the shadows
break on the summit of divine Science,

With perpetual beams of Life and Love.

Students do not pray enough. They should go by themselves at least three times a day to pray. Their prayers should consist of much giving thanks, more realization of the perfect, as well as the denial of error. There is too much denial of error and too little realization of the perfect.

Do you find any difficulty in healing? If so, strike for the higher sense of the nothingness of matter, the allness of Mind. Do not care to search into causation there, for there is no cause and no effect in matter. All is Mind, perfect and eternal.

Whenever you treat a patient, include in your understanding of the case, that no ignorant or malicious mind can affect the case, and that there is NO RELAPSE. Science tells us this in all it manifests. Progress is the law of the infinite, and finite views are but supposition, belief. Now, realize this, and be a law to every case when you commence treating it, that there is but one Mind and this one governs your patient. These are rules for you to work out every hour of your life.

Realize constantly that no mortal mind, so-called, can affect your patient or yourself or make you believe you cannot cure your patient. There is no malice, no envy, no willpower. All is Love and Truth. Argue this clearly.

Realize for yourself daily, more than once, that the fields are already white with harvest; that “Divine Love always has met and always will meet every human need,” the need of work as well as any other; that Mind is active, and you reflect the divine activity; that the true source of supply supplies every need; that there is plenty of work for all; that yours belongs to you, no one else can do it, and it comes to you direct, and the supply is abundant and you know all the time that this is so. Never let a sense of lack of anything stay a moment with you; it is rank error and breeds all sorts of difficulties.

Daily know that mental malpractice cannot cause Christian Scientists or their patients to have return of old beliefs, as this is the argument sent out, also that there is no reversal of the treatment of Christian Science.

To students gathered at Pleasant View –

My dear students, guard your tongues. When you see sin in others, know that you have it in yourselves, and become repentant. If any of you think you are not mortal, you are mistaken.

I find my students either in an apathy or a frenzy. I am astounded at your ignorance of the methods of animal magnetism. Your enemies are working incessantly, while you are not working as you should. They do not knock, they come with a rush. They do not take me unawares. I know before they come.

Would that my head were a fountain of waters, and my eyes rivers of tears, that I might weep, because of the apathy of the students, and the little they have accomplished.

You have never seen me in my real home, but you may sometime. Come with me into it.

When the New York Scientists presented her with two hundred dollars worth of floral offerings, she looked at them sadly, and afterward, with tears in her eyes said, “But they are not doing the work as I want it.” “If ye love me keep my commandments.”

ANSWER TO THE QUESTION IN CLASS –
“WHAT VALUE DO YOU GIVE TO ORGANIZATION?”

Organization is a method of Mind, and of course a necessity of creation. This is indicated by the perfection of the counterfeit. The form and structure of personality are the crowning work of material sense, and show the effort of error to rival the true and enduring. Ideas body forth Principle in various manifestations. Because mortal sense bodies forth the highly-organized personality, it is an indication that the best success in reaching thought will be along the line of organization. To reflect as perfectly as possible the divine methods, Science chooses the best beliefs of mortal sense to indicate to mortals the perfection of the infinite idea. Of two seemingly necessary evils, always choose the least. Select the best beliefs and methods of mortal mind, and make them serve your highest understanding. The without should reflect the within.

Our organization should show above all things UNITY. There should be but one field. The church in Boston should be the center — The Church of Christ, Scientist — all others tributary to it, not separate organizations. So the thought of many members, but one body, should come into expression. Organization is necessary to meet the banding together of all phases of error.

Mrs. Eddy impressed upon a student the great importance of urging her students to work against mental malpractice in all directions. She said that through the law of malpractice the students have a great deal to meet in themselves physically and also financially, and also in a business way.

The argument is that Scientists are not wanted in business; and because you are a Scientist you will not succeed, etc. All this is evil suggestion. Meet it by knowing and declaring that there is no evil mind, for only one Mind exists — God, good — only one voice, the voice of God, good.

When we get the right idea of father, mother, husband, wife, and child, we will never lose them.

A painless man, a painless God, a painless universe.

God governs it — justice, Truth and Love govern it. Nothing else can or does affect it in the least.

Mortal mind cannot give us money, nor can it prevent us receiving all the money we need for building up the Cause of Christian Science. Divine Love increases and blesses our supply. It is possible for us to do everything that it is right to do. Do not work for money to come thru personality.

Inconsistency is progression.

Beloved brethren: My heart greets you with Christmas joy. Continue, fellow-worshippers, vigilant in that whereto God calleth thee. Unity imparts the spirit of the trinity. Opinions of men are not substitutes for Science. Be patient with misjudgment. Christ, Truth, overcometh error. Today is tomorrow understood. Love maketh right prosperous. Pure hearts and clean hands upbuild the Cause and Church of Christ, Scientist. Have one God, live in conformity therewith, obedient thereto, governed thereby.

No person, no thing, in all the universe, no claim of circumstances, can by any possibility interfere between me and all joy, and all good.

To help ourselves, or others, we must think God’s thoughts after Him. To affirm anything is to assure its possibility even in the face of all contrary evidence that it is so. We can compel ourselves to cease quibbling, and go to work to prove the rule, each one for himself — “Thou shalt decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee.”

Pain, sickness, poverty, old age, and death cannot touch me for they are unreal; there is nothing in the universe for me to fear, for greater is He who is within me (true self) than he that is within the world. God says, “I will contend with him that contendeth with thee.”

Repeat the following affirmations silently several times each day, not with strained anxiety to get something out of them, but trying calmly to realize the meaning of the words:

God is All; there is no evil.

All is harmony; there is no discord.

All is health; there is no sickness.

All is Spirit; there is no matter.

All is joy; there is no sorrow.

All is Truth; there is no falsehood.

All is faith; there is no fear.

All is Life; there is no death.

All is Love; there is no hate.

We must cease quibbling, cease to admit in our thinking the reality and power in themselves, of misery, pain, and evil in all its forms. We must think steadily and persistently the Truth which stands opposite to them. We do in this way overcome our discordant conditions of consciousness. Now, everyone that persists in this course, several times a day, will have the following, viz.: 1st. Signs of lessening fear of aught that can happen to them. 2nd. Signs of mental equilibrium, a self-poise and reliance that faces steadily that which others flee from. 3rd. Lack of painful consequences from doing that which is one’s duty to do. 4th. Signs of less love for those things which we formerly considered necessary for our happiness, a growing independence of them. 5th. Broadening love and charity, encircling around that which is ours, and including all men. 6th. Strength sufficient for the demand of each day, when each day’s work only is considered. 7th. Signs of peace within which all the tempests of mortal belief cannot destroy — a “Holy of Holies” with ever-burning lamp; a covenant with God, the All-good; the peace which passeth all understanding; a peace which is above and beyond happiness.


Materia Medica

There is no power, intelligence or principle, mesmeric or hypnotic, in materia medica as individual or collective mind. Therefore it cannot blind nor hypnotize mortals through human beliefs or will-power from seeking the true healing as it is in Christ Jesus and Christian Science.

There is but one Physician because there is but one Mind; whose medicine is Truth; which destroys all error; whose attraction is Love; which casteth out all fear. This is the one Mind which was also in Christ Jesus, and this Mind alone can draw all men unto Him — divine Love.

Materia medica cannot hide under the guise of hygiene, witchcraft, magic, spiritualism, mind-cure, faith-cure, or any other subtle form of carnality, for to be carnally-minded is death.

Man (I) cannot be bewitched or mesmerized by alluring or high sounding phrases or methods, nor by any personality, individual or collective, which substitutes matter and materia medica for the healing power of Truth, Christ. The nothingness and impotence of materia medica is demonstrated through divine Science by its loyal students who reflect divine intelligence, which destroys any claim of intelligence not in God, good, divine Mind.

To enmity’s own hell of ignorance, superstition, hypocrisy and hatred, justice consigns the lie which would slay man in order to satisfy its own beliefs in materia medica and false theology. God made man immortal and in His image, the image of His own eternity, and to this end gave him dominion over all the earth, over all the works of His hands.

This is the Truth of being, and nothing can change the Truth into a lie. 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.

The fullness of the earth belongs to the free circulation of honesty, virtue, and progress in the footsteps of truth.

Scientists must raise the dead soon.
