Into the . worlds' confusion .. Moses brought the moral law, and the sanction -.-v.ef the commandments was the change i ' less Being of God. The reason then h why men should be kind to one another, -i refraining from . unfilial action, theft, impurity, false witness, covetousness, . and murder, is to avoid - unlikeness to real being. , , - , ' j TESTIMONY OF THE PROPHETS . To this -God of- purity and right teousness the prophets testified. One and another of them reached the vision :::. of a super-human kindness in the de- ; vine, whereby , men might have healing v - and salvation derived from the power beyond and above themselves..: . Eliiah raised front the dead the widow's son, continuing the proof of tevine love which had 'preserved her 'household in the famine. Elisha prov 1 ed in many ways, the beneficence of i me boa 01 israei, ana wnen ne neaiea . ' Naaman of his incurable leprosy he showed that this was the. -God of all . the earth. -. The kings of Babylon,' and ' Darius the conqueror, who saw Dan- . iels proof of devine love and care, were fed to glorify the God of Israel as1 the God above all. Isaiah and Jeremiah ' and Hosea declared God to be the scour ce of healing and health.-" Habbakkuk ,J,he said,,','The earth, ahall be filled with '.' the knowledge of the glory, of the Lord, .' as the waters cover the sea."; And a Malachi v.ho took his figure from the . sun rather than the sea, said that . "the Sun of rightousness" should arise v and shine upoil. man with heating inJ its ways.1 But they all looked forward v forward to the tcoming of one who could present infallable proofs reveal- .jng the character of the God of the whole earth. , y ' God is best known where there is -.most likeness expressed. For theirday the partriarchs and prophets were won derful in their outstanding righteous 7 ness. But . for the whole world s the . works and, words of Christ Jesus and ' .his Godlikeness constitute the adequat .. revelation regarding God's kindnes to man,' fulfilling the hope andvision of the prophets. - TESTIMONY ,OF THE SON., v The prophets rested in their hope. :.

Paill decsribes th lovely relationship which Christianity discloses, when he said: "My Gcd "so great is His weakh-r-will, ib glo ry, fully satisfy your every need. through your, union with Christ Jesus." . 'The moral law given by, Moses was lifted from being specific and arbitatv commands into comprehensiveand ui i versal; guidance by J es is. , He, made clear what ;had been . somewhat dimly discerned,.' 1 that ' the. good-will . of God to man requires man's, good-will to man, Therefore he subsituated the whole: law in a first , commandmtntt to love God unfeignedly, . with the whole being and a second like unto it, "Thou ahalt ' love thy neighbor as thyself.'' MAN'S GOOD-WILL TO., MAN Christian Science -enables us to- see very clearly that the second command ment must not have a material inter pretatiori. The drunkard in his cups may believe that he' is fulfilling it by inducing his neighbor ' to become as besotted as he is himself.-A neighbor is -xrften discomforted and oppressed by the effort to force upon him ' the preferences of another. It is ,not Jove, however, that seeks to govern with evil habits of' anxiety and fears. The first command should be first in thought, and when it is obeyed fear is ' cast' out' and peace reigns. The best sevrice one can do for another is to reveal and prove to him the truth concerning a good God. -. To do this a maa must first hnow this God him self. ' -If he knows God a right he can not refrain from loving with his whole heart a perfect God., , The next step is to realize what this God does for him. Consequently fear, care and fret are superseded by. peace, health, and joy of heart. Then only is he ready to love hit neighbor ' by rezliiing for him the same love whereby he himself is bless ed. When a man loves himself from the standpoint of first loving God with all his heart; so that in his life God- likeness appears and the opposite qual ities disappear- he is able to show .the neighborly love which brings no- bur den of anxiety, and expresses no in terference, because it is a love which reveals the salvation ' from ' sickness and woe which divine Love ."has pro vided for man. .
