The power of the human will should be exercised only in subordination to Truth; else it will misguide the judg- 206:6 ment and free the lower propensities. It is the province of spiritual sense to govern man. Material, erring, human thought acts injuriously both 206:9 upon the body and through it. Will-power is capable of all evil. It can never heal the sick, for it is the prayer of the unrighteous; while 206:12 the exercise of the sentiments - hope, faith, love - is the prayer of the righteous. This prayer, governed by Science instead of the senses, heals the sick. 206:15 In the scientific relation of God to man, we find that whatever blesses one blesses all, as Jesus showed with the loaves and the fishes, - Spirit, not matter, being the 206:18 source of supply. Birth and death unreal Does God send sickness, giving the mother her child for the brief space of a few years and then taking it away 206:21 by death? Is God creating anew what He has already created? The Scriptures are defi- nite on this point, declaring that His work was/ finished/, 206:24 nothing is new to God, and that it was /good/. Can there be any birth or death for man, the spiritual image and likeness of God? Instead of God sending 206:27 sickness and death, He destroys them, and brings to light immortality. Omnipotent and infinite Mind made all and includes all. This Mind does not make mistakes 206:30 and subsequently correct them. God does not cause man to sin, to be sick, or to die. No evil in Spirit There are evil beliefs, often called evil spirits; but 207:1 these evils are not Spirit, for there is no evil in Spirit. Because God is Spirit, evil becomes more apparent and 207:3 obnoxious proportionately as we advance spir- itually, until it disappears from our lives. This fact proves our position, for every scientific state- 207:6 ment in Christianity has its proof. Error of statement leads to error in action. Subordination of evil God is not the creator of an evil mind. Indeed, evil 207:9 is not Mind. We must learn that evil is the awful decep- tion and unreality of existence. Evil is not supreme; good is not helpless; nor are the 207:12 so-called laws of matter primary, and the law of Spirit secondary. Without this lesson, we lose sight of the per- fect Father, or the divine Principle of man. Evident impossibilities 207:15 Body is not first and Soul last, nor is evil mightier than good. The Science of being repudiates self- evident impossibilities, such as the amalgama- 207:18 tion of Truth and error in cause or effect. Science sepa- rates the tares and wheat in time of harvest.
