Divine trinity VII. Life, Truth, and Love constitute the triune Person 331:27 called God, - that is, the triply divine Principle, Love. They represent a trinity in unity, three in one, - the same in essence, though multi- 331:30 form in office: God the Father-Mother; Christ the spirit- ual idea of sonship; divine Science or the Holy Comforter. These three express in divine Science the threefold, essen- 332:1 tial nature of the infinite. They also indicate the divine Principle of scientific being, the intelligent relation of God 332:3 to man and the universe. Father-Mother VIII. Father-Mother is the name for Deity, which in- dicates His tender relationship to His spiritual creation. 332:6 As the apostle expressed it in words which he quoted with approbation from a classic poet: "For we are also His offspring." The Son of God 332:9 IX. Jesus was born of Mary. Christ is the true idea voicing good, the divine message from God to men speak- ing to the human consciousness. The Christ 332:12 is incorporeal, spiritual, - yea, the divine image and likeness, dispelling the illusions of the senses; the Way, the Truth, and the Life, healing the sick and 332:15 casting out evils, destroying sin, disease, and death. As Paul says: "There is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus." The corporeal 332:18 man Jesus was human. Holy Ghost or Comforter X. Jesus demonstrated Christ; he proved that Christ is the divine idea of God - the Holy Ghost, 332:21 or Comforter, revealing the divine Principle, Love, and leading into all truth. Christ Jesus XI. Jesus was the son of a virgin. He was appointed 332:24 to speak God's word and to appear to mortals in such a form of humanity as they could understand as well as perceive. Mary's conception of 332:27 him was spiritual, for only purity could reflect Truth and Love, which were plainly incarnate in the good and pure Christ Jesus. He expressed the highest type of 332:30 divinity, which a fleshly form could express in that age. Into the real and ideal man the fleshly element cannot enter. Thus it is that Christ illustrates the coincidence, 333:1 or spiritual agreement, between God and man in His image. Messiah or Christ
