Christian Science The subject of the -sermon in First Church of Christ, ScienList, on Sunday, Feb. 22, was: "Mind."

Among the citations which comprised the lesson-sermon, the following were from the Bible: "And Moses said unto God, Behold. when I come unto the children of Israel and shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say unto me, What is his name? What shall I say unto them? And God said unto Moses, I Am That I Im: and he sald. Thus shalt thou SAy unto the children of Israel, I Am hath sent me unto you" (Ex. 3: 13, 14). The lesson-sermon also Included the following passages from the Christian Science textbook, "Science und Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy: "Mind is I Am or infinity Allness is the measure of the infinte, and nothing less can express God.

The scriptures imply that God is all-in-all. From this it follows that nothing possesses reality 1101 existence except the divine mind and His ideas He is all inclusive, and is reflected all that is real and eternal and by nothing else. He fills all space. and it is impossible to conceive of such omnipresenco and Individuality except as infinte spirit or mind" (pp. 336, 331).
