Mr<. Eddy defines God as divine Mind. Life. Love. Principle. Happily enough this definition corresponds with the highest Scrintural concepâ€" tion. o" God. for the Bible speaks of Him as Life. Mind.

There is no sharp distinction between the grip of rage and the wrench of soâ€"called physical pain. All these things are mental monstrosities, and hence Mrs. Eddy could truly say that "not parâ€" tially, but fully, the great healer of \ mortal mind is the healer of the body" ; (Science and Health, page 326). It is not meant to intimate that ill people are necessarily unkindly in temperament, for obviously they are not, though they will often be found to be fearful, unconsciously so many times. But the human mind believes in sickness, has, in belief, enacted laws of disease, and has grown to fear its own creations and illusions, and you and I become victims, oftenâ€" times without specific fault on our port, to these false beliefs and soâ€" called laws, until we learn in Chrisâ€" tian Science how to protect ourselves through a realization of the allâ€"presâ€" ence and all.power of perfect, eternal ence, man is the reflection or expresâ€" sion of God.
