book, "Science and Health with key to the Scriptures, by Mary Baker Eddie: "Paganisnt and Agnosticism may define Deity as "the great unknowable"; but Christian Science brings God much nearer to man," and makes Him better known as the All-in-all, forever near. Paul saw in Athens an altar dedicated "to the unknown God." Referring to it, he said to the Athenians: “Whom there fore ye ignorantly worship, Him de clare I unto you." (Act XV11:23).
God is individual, incorporeal. He is divine Principle, Love the universal cause, the only creator, and there is" no other self-existence. He is all- inclusive, and is reflected by all that is real and eternal and by nothing else. Truth does the work, and you must both understand and abide by the di vine Principle of your demonstration.". (Pages 596, 881, and 456);
