Our Want-Ads are business bringers CHRISTIAN SCIENCE CHURCHES "Mind" was the subject of the Lesson- Sermon in all Churches of Christ, Scientist, on Sunday, August 21. The Golden Text was, "The Lord hath been mindful of us: lie will bless us" (Psalms 115:12). Among the citations which comprised the Lesson-Sermon was the following from the Bible: "For God hath not given us the spirit <>f fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind" (II Timothy 1:7). 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 : "There can be but one Mind, because there is but one God; and if mortals Claimed no other Mind and accepted no other, sin would be unknown. ... With one Father, even God, the whole family of man would be brethren; and with one Mind and that God, or good, the brotherhood of man would consist of Love and Truth, and have unity of Principle and spiritual power which constitute divine Science" (p. 468-470).
