The first of these is infinite Mind. A right conâ€" ception of this comprehensive term immediately accomplishes two very important things: it dispels the inâ€" correct copcept of a personal and limited God and simultaneously gives us an understandable idea of an omâ€" mipresent God.

It is the voice of Paul on Mars‘ Hill again declarâ€" ing, "Whom therefore ye ignorantly worship, him declare I unto you." Applied Christianity _ _ With this brief exposition of the Christian Science concept of God as infinite, changeless good, the divine Principle of life and existence, we may now go forward to consider the problem of existing in harmony with God, so that we may express the diâ€" vine Life and character in daily livâ€" his disease was exceeding great: yet in his disease he sought not to the Lord, but to the physicians.

The story of Enoch shows the blessing which results from turnâ€" img to God, while the evil resulting from turning to matter for help is plainly brought forth in the sad stoâ€" ry of Asa. Before one can seek or turn to God for deliverance from all earthly diz~ cords it is necessary to have a corâ€" rect concept of God,â€"to know where "he may be found."

The Master emâ€" phasized the fact that the process of cord with God‘s will. He pointed out the way of escape by declaring, "and this is life eternal" or life conâ€" tinuousâ€""to know thee." The Bible also refers to death as an enemy to be overcome, while the Revelator deâ€" clares that "there shall be no more death." Aside from all this unquesâ€" tioned authority it can be proved logically that death is an abnormal condition, without any reference to the Bible, by the following simple bit of logical reasoning: If what we term death were a part of God‘s harâ€" monious creation it would be a norâ€" mal condition, and man would go to his grave as naturally as he does to his couch at night, for man accepts the inevitable as he does the change of seasons. The fact that he rebels at, and fears death, that he has ever boped to escape and overcome it, proves its abnormality. â€" how to utilize it in the demonstraâ€" tion of Life eternal, or Life continuâ€" ous, without the change called fig: ical death. In this connection the Bi ble declares, "I am . . . not the of the dead, but of the living," and the prophet said, "The grave cannot praise thee, death cannot celebrate I lay down my life, then he tells us why,â€""that I might take it again."
