Doorly, member of the Board of Lectureship of the Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Mass. No body of people on earth holds a higher estimate of Christ Jesus than Christian Scientists. We know that his way is the only way. It is true that we do not believe that the human Jesus is God. We know that, as he himself declared, he is the Son of God. The Christian Scientist's love for Christ Jesus is beyond any words, for' is it not the life and work of Jesus which led to the discovery of this Science and which has enabled him to come out of bondage to sin and disease and to see those he loves dearly freed from these ills?

Thus he learns that "Christianity is the basis of true healing" "(Science and Health, p. 192). No one who understands and appre- ciates Jesus' mission and his fulfill- ment of that mission can ever be satis- fied to be a merely nominal follower of Jesus. Christian Scientists recog- nize clearly that the promise of Jesus, "He that believeth on me, the works that T do shall he do also," is not mere- ly a promise but is also an unmistak- able demand on his followers. They realize that slowly but surely the world is beginning to see and to appre- ciate that the spiritual understanding of God and of His Christ is the only way of deliverance from evil of any kind. As this demonstration of Christ is made manifest there will be a truer appreciation of Christ Jesus and of his overwhelming sacrifice for the salva- tion of men. Until the works are per- formed in some degree, by healing the sick, reforming the sinner, and raising the dead, Christianity has not fully grasped the deep significance of Jesus' mission. His life and work were a complete proof that "whatever holds human thought in line with unselfed love, receives directly the divine power" (Science and Health, p. 192). It is sometimes misrepresented that we Christian Scientists make too much of the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, Mary Baker Eddy. Let me say to you that it would be im- possible for us to make too much of Mrs. Eddy. The salvation of every member of the human race depends on the honest recognition of the truth taught by Mrs. Eddy as God's mes- senger. She never demanded of her fol- lowers any human praise. her mental status was too high to be influenced by such praise. She knew, however, that if men were to be redeemed by Christian Science they would, in com- mon justice, have to recognize through whom Christian Science had been brought to them. Those who knew Mrs. Eddy well, found that she was pure and tender, wonderfully unselfish, always thinking and laboring on be- half of mankind.
