Pantheism may be defined as a belief in the intelli- 129:12 gence of matter, - a belief which Science overthrows. In those days there will be "great tribulation such as was not since the beginning of the 129:15 world;" and earth will echo the cry, "Art thou [Truth] come hither to torment us before the time?" Animal magnetism, hypnotism, spiritualism, theosophy, agnos- 129:18 ticism, pantheism, and infidelity are antagonistic to true being and fatal to its demonstration; and so are some other systems. Ontology needed 129:21 We must abandon pharmaceutics, and take up ontol- ogy, - "the science of real being." We must look deep into realism instead of accepting only the out- 129:24 ward sense of things. Can we gather peaches from a pine-tree, or learn from discord the concord of being? Yet quite as rational are some of the leading 129:27 illusions along the path which Science must tread in its reformatory mission among mortals. The very name, illusion, points to nothingness. Reluctant guests 129:30 The generous liver may object to the author's small estimate of the pleasures of the table. The sinner sees, in the system taught in this book, that the demands of 130:1 God must be met. The petty intellect is alarmed by con- stant appeals to Mind. The licentious disposition is dis- 130:3 couraged over its slight spiritual prospects. When all men are bidden to the feast, the ex- cuses come. One has a farm, another has merchandise, 130:6 and therefore they cannot accept. Excuses for ignorance It is vain to speak dishonestly of divine Science, which destroys all discord, when you can demonstrate 130:9 the actuality of Science. It is unwise to doubt if reality is in perfect harmony with God, divine Principle, - if Science, when understood and demonstrated, will 130:12 destroy all discord, - since you admit that God is om- nipotent; for from this premise it follows that good and its sweet concords have all-power. Children and adults 130:15 Christian Science, properly understood, would dis- abuse the human mind of material beliefs which war against spiritual facts; and these material 130:18 beliefs must be denied and cast out to make place for truth. You cannot add to the contents of a vessel already full. Laboring long to shake the adult's 130:21 faith in matter and to inculcate a grain of faith in God, - an inkling of the ability of Spirit to make the body har- monious, - the author has often remembered our Master's 130:24 love for little children, and understood how truly such as they belong to the heavenly kingdom.
