"It is recorded in St. John's Gospel that Jesus, when teaching in the temple, said to those Jews which believed on him: If ye continue, in my word: then are ye my dis ciples indeed; and ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. Free! Throughout the ages mankind has striven for free dou. What then is this freedom which Jesus promised nineteen centuries ago!

Wa do not know, of course, just what impressed Mrs. Eddy so powerfully in this Bible verse, bat we may well pause a moment to see what it has for us of spiritual and practical import in connection with our consideration of Christian Science. First, we note that Jesus observed the mental state of patients instead of the physical: he saw their faith. Then the Master said to the sick of the palsy, "Son; be of good cheer." What a wonderful antidote for and rebuks to the fear, discour gement, and condemnation under which this man was laboring And let us remember that the Christ is erer, voicing that same liberating. healing message to all who are bur dened by fear and bowed down with wondemnation, for the writer of the epistle to the Hebrews, speaks of Christ as the same yesterday, and to day, and forever." this word of cheer has not been silenced nor has the power of God which vitalized and enforced the message diminished in the least.
