115:15 MAN: God's spiritual idea, individual, per- fect, eternal. Divine reflection IDEA: An image in Mind; the immediate 115:18 object of understanding. - /Webster/. SCIENTIFIC TRANSLATION OF MORTAL MIND /First Degree:/ Depravity. Unreality 115:21 PHYSICAL. Evil beliefs, passions and appetites, fear, depraved will, self-justification, pride, envy, de- ceit, hatred, revenge, sin, sickness, disease, 115:24 death. /Second Degree:/ Evil beliefs disappearing. Transitional qualities MORAL. Humanity, honesty, affection, com- passion, hope, faith, meekness, temperance. 116:1 /Third Degree:/ Understanding. Reality SPIRITUAL. Wisdom, purity, spiritual understanding, 116:3 spiritual power, love, health, holiness. Spiritual universe In the third degree mortal mind disappears, and man as God's image appears. Science so reverses the evidence 116:6 before the corporeal human senses, as to make this Scriptural testimony true in our hearts, "The last shall be first, and the first last," so that God 116:9 and His idea may be to us what divinity really is and must of necessity be, - all-inclusive. Aim of Science A correct view of Christian Science and of its adapta- 116:12 tion to healing includes vastly more than is at first seen. Works on metaphysics leave the grand point untouched. They never crown the power of 116:15 Mind as the Messiah, nor do they carry the day against physical enemies, - even to the extinction of all belief in matter, evil, disease, and death, - nor insist upon the fact 116:18 that God is all, therefore that matter is nothing beyond an image in mortal mind. Divine personality Christian Science strongly emphasizes the thought that 116:21 God is not /corporeal/, but /incorporeal/, - that is, bodiless. Mortals are corporeal, but God is incorporeal. 116:24 As the words /person/ and /personal/ are commonly and ignorantly employed, they often lead, when applied to Deity, to confused and erroneous conceptions of divinity 116:27 and its distinction from humanity. If the term personality, as applied to God, means infinite personality, then God is infinite /Person/, - in the sense of infinite personality, but 116:30 not in the lower sense. An infinite Mind in a finite form is an absolute impossibility.
