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: "When being is understood, Life will be recognised as neither ma- terial nor finite, but as infinite, as God, universal good; and the belief that life, or mind, was ever in a finite form, or good in evil, will be destroyed: Every object in material thought will be des troyed, but the spiritual iden, whose substance is in Mind, is eternal. The offspring of God start not from matter. or ephemeral dust. They are in and of Spirit, divine Mind, and so forever in continue, Man is not absorbed Deity, and man cannot lose his indivi- duality, for he reflects eternal Life nor is he an isolated, solitary iden, for he represents infinite Mind, the sum of all substance".
