Subject Sunday: “Truth”.
"Life” was the subject of the
Lesson-Sermon in all Christian Sci
ence Churches and Societies, Sun
day, January 21.
i ne golden Text was from I John
5:11. “This is the record, that God
hath given to us eternal life, and
this life is in his Son.”
Among the citations which com
prised the Lesson-Sermon were the
following from the Bible, “In the
beginning was the Word, and the
Word was with God, and the Word
was God ... In him was life; and
the life was the light of men.”
(John 1:1, 4)
The Lesson-Sermon also included
the following passage from the
Christian Science textbook, “Sci
ence and Health with Key to the
Scriptures”, by Mary Baker Eddy,
“God is divine Life, and Life is
no more confined to the forms
which reflect it than substance is
in its shadow. If life were in mor
tal man or material things, it would
be subject to their limitations and
would end in death. Life is Mind,
the creator reflected in His crea
tions. If He dwelt within what He
creates, God would not be reflected
but absorbed, and the Science of
being would be forever lost through
a mortal sense, which falsely testi
fies to a beginning and an end.”

Don’t Neglect Them!
Mature designed the kidneys to do a
i marvelous job. Their task is to keep the
Sowing blood stream free of an excess of
toxic impurities. The act of living—!i/«

matter the kidneys must remove from
the blood if good heath la to endure.
When the kidneys fail to function as
Mature intended, there is retention of
waste that may cause body-wide dis
tress. One msy suffer nagging backache,
persistent headache, attacks of dizziness,
getting up nights, swelling, puffiness
under the eyes—feel tired, nervous, all -
