“UNREALITY OF EVIL”
CHRISTIAN SCIENCE SERMON “Unreality” was the subject ot the lesson-sermon in First Church of Christ, Scientist, Auckland, yesterday. The golden text was from Jeremiah, xxiii., 2S, “What is the chaff to the wheat?” saith the Lord.” Among the citations which comprised the lesson-sermon was the following from the Bible:—“That all the people of the earth may know that the Lord is God, and that there is none else.” “The Lord hath taken away thy judgments, He hath cast out thine enemy; the King of Israel, even the Lord, is in the midst of thee; thou shalt not see evil any more" (I. Kings viii., 60; Zeph. Hi., 15). The lesson-sermon also included the following passages from the Christian Science textbook, “Science and Health, with Key to the Scriptures,” by Mary Baker Eddy:—“Jesus’s demonstrations sift the chaff from the wheat, and unfold the unity and the reality of good, the unreality, the nothingness, of evil.” “Science so reverses the evidence before the corporeal human senses as to make this Scriptural testimony true in our hearts, “The last shall be first, anti tlie first last,” so that God and His idea may be to us what divinity really is and must of necessity’ be — all-inclusive” (p.p. 269, 116).
