CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
LESSON SERMON ·
Subject: Spirit
35
The subject of the Lesson Sermon in all Christian Science churches to-mor- row, August 7th will be "Spirit."
The Golden Text will be "The fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth." (Eph. 5:9).
Among others the following citations will be read from the Bible, "I there- fore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called: With all lowli- ness and meekness with long suffering, forbearing one another in love; endea- vouring to keep the unity of the Spirit. in the bond of peace. There is one body and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all, who is above all and through all, and in you all." (Sph. 4: 1-6).

The following citations will also be read from the Christian Science Text- book "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy; "Christian Science reveals a necessity for overcoming the world, the flesh and all evil, and thus destroying all error. Imperfect mortals grasp the ultimate of spiritual perfection slowly; but to begin aright and to continue the strife of demonstrating the great problem of being, is doing much. During the sen- sual ages, absolute Christian Science may not be achieved prior to the change called death, for we have not the power to demonstrate what we do not under- stand. But the human self must be evangelised. This task God demands as to accept lovingly to-day and to abandon so fast as practical the ma- terial and to work out the spiritual which determines the outward and ac-| tual. The understanding and recogni- tion of Spirit must finally come, and we may as well improve our time in solving the mysteries of being_through an apprehension of Divine Principle.
