43:21 Jesus rose higher in demonstration because of the cup of bitterness he drank. Human law had condemned him, but he was demonstrating divine Science. 43:24 Out of reach of the barbarity of his enemies, he was acting under spiritual law in defiance of mat- ter and mortality, and that spiritual law sustained him. 43:27 The divine must overcome the human at every point. The Science Jesus taught and lived must triumph over all material beliefs about life, substance, and intelli- 43:30 gence, and the multitudinous errors growing from such beliefs. Love must triumph over hate. Truth and Life must 44:1 seal the victory over error and death, before the thorns can be laid aside for a crown, the benediction follow, 44:3 "Well done, good and faithful servant," and the suprem- acy of Spirit be demonstrated. Jesus in the tomb The lonely precincts of the tomb gave Jesus a refuge 44:6 from his foes, a place in which to solve the great problem of being. His three days' work in the sepulchre set the seal of eternity on time. 44:9 He proved Life to be deathless and Love to be the mas- ter of hate. He met and mastered on the basis of Chris- tian Science, the power of Mind over matter, all the claims 44:12 of medicine, surgery, and hygiene. He took no drugs to allay inflammation. He did not depend upon food or pure air to resuscitate wasted 44:15 energies. He did not require the skill of a surgeon to heal the torn palms and bind up the wounded side and lacerated feet, that he might use those hands to remove 44:18 the napkin and winding-sheet, and that he might employ his feet as before. The deific naturalism Could it be called supernatural for the God of nature 44:21 to sustain Jesus in his proof of man's truly derived power? It was a method of surgery beyond material art, but it was not a supernatural act. On 44:24 the contrary, it was a divinely natural act, whereby divinity brought to humanity the understanding of the Christ- healing and revealed a method infinitely above that of 44:27 human invention. Obstacles overcome His disciples believed Jesus to be dead while he was hidden in the sepulchre, whereas he was alive, demon- 44:30 strating within the narrow tomb the power of Spirit to overrule mortal, material sense. There were rock-ribbed walls in the way, and a great 45:1 stone must be rolled from the cave's mouth; but Jesus vanquished every material obstacle, overcame every law 45:3 of matter, and stepped forth from his gloomy resting-place, crowned with the glory of a sublime success, an everlasting victory. Victory over the grave
