The Golden Text was from Proverbs 22:4, "By humility and the fear of the Lord are riches, and honour, and life." Among the citations which comprised the Lesson-Sermon was the following from the Bible: "For all things are for your sakes, that the abundant grace might through the thanksgiving of many redound to the glory of God. For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day. For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory; While we look not at the things are seen, but at the things which the not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal (II Cor. 4:15-18). The Lesson-Sermon also included the following passages from the Chris- tian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy: "That which ma- terial sense calls intangible, is found to be substance. What to material sense seems substance, becomes noth- ingness, as the sense-dream vanishes and reality appears." (p. 312). Quality cuisine.
