CHRISTIAN SCIENCE LESSON SERMON
First Church of Christ, Scientist, Hongkong
SUNDAY'S SERVICE
The subject of the Lesson Sermon in all churches of Christ Scientist, to- morrow, August 2, will be "LOVE". Text will be: "He The Golden that loveth not knoweth not God: for God is Love." (1. John 4:8).
the
following others, Among citations from the Bible will be read "In this was manifested the love of God towards us, because that God sent
his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him. Herein is love, not that
not that we loved God, but that he loved-us-and- sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whocouver helleveth in him should not perish, but have everlast- ing life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that hath received fus testimony hall set to his Sent that God is true. For he whom God hath sent speaketh the words of God: For God giveth not the Spirit by measure unto him. The Faiher loveth the Son and hath given all things into his hand." (1 John 4:9,19-John 3: 10, 17, 33-35.)
The Lesson Sermon will also in- clude the following passage from the Christian Selence textbook, "Science und Health with Key to the Scrip- tures" by Mary Baker Eddy:
Father-Mother is the. name for Deity
which indicates His tender relationship to His spiritual creation. Jezus acknowledged no ties of the flesh.
said: "Call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father which is in heaven." Ita
of mission was to reveal the Science celestial being, to prove what God is and what He does for man. Jesus established what he said by de- monstration, thus making his acts of higher importance than his works, Jesus' teaching and practice of Truth involved such a sacrifice as makes us admit its Principle to be Love. This was the precious import of our
"F" demon- ter's sinless career and of his stration of power over death. He proved by his deeds that Christian Science destroys sickness,
sin and death. Our Master taught no mere theory doctrine or beller. it was the divine Principle of all real being which he taught and practised. His proof of Christianity was no form or system of religion and worship, but Christian Science,, working out the harmony of Life and Love, (332 : 4-5-314-0----26.10–20 : 21-32).
