231:12 If God makes sin, if good produces evil, if truth results in error, then Science and Christianity are helpless; but there are no antagonistic powers nor laws, spiritual or 231:15 material, creating and governing man through perpetual warfare. God is not the author of mortal discords. Therefore we accept the conclusion that discords have 231:18 only a fabulous existence, are mortal beliefs which divine Truth and Love destroy. Superiority to sickness and sin To hold yourself superior to sin, because God made 231:21 you superior to it and governs man, is true wisdom. To fear sin is to misunderstand the power of Love and the divine Science of being in man's rela- 231:24 tion to God, - to doubt His government and distrust His omnipotent care. To hold yourself superior to sickness and death is equally wise, and is in accordance 231:27 with divine Science. To fear them is impossible, when you fully apprehend God and know that they are no part of His creation. 231:30 Man, governed by his Maker, having no other Mind, - planted on the Evangelist's statement that "all things were made by Him [the Word of God]; and without 232:1 Him was not anything made that was made," - can triumph over sin, sickness, and death. Denials of divine power 232:3 Many theories relative to God and man neither make man harmonious nor God lovable. The beliefs we com- monly entertain about happiness and life 232:6 afford no scatheless and permanent evidence of either. Security for the claims of harmonious and eternal being is found only in divine Science. 232:9 Scripture informs us that "with God all things are possible," - all good is possible to Spirit; but our prev- alent theories practically deny this, and make healing 232:12 possible only through matter. These theories must be untrue, for the Scripture is true. Christianity is not false, but religions which contradict its Principle are 232:15 false. In our age Christianity is again demonstrating the power of divine Principle, as it did over nineteen hun- 232:18 dred years ago, by healing the sick and triumphing over death. Jesus never taught that drugs, food, air, and ex- ercise could make a man healthy, or that they could de- 232:21 stroy human life; nor did he illustrate these errors by his practice. He referred man's harmony to Mind, not to matter, and never tried to make of none effect the sen- 232:24 tence of God, which sealed God's condemnation of sin, sickness, and death. Signs following
