   1  portion as mortals give up error for Truth and the un-
     derstanding of being supersedes mere belief. Until the
   3  author of this book learned the vastness of

    The hopeful
    outlook

     Christian Science, the fixedness of mortal illu-
     sions, and the human hatred of Truth, she cherished
   6  sanguine hopes that Christian Science would meet with
     immediate and universal acceptance.
         [[[When the following platform is understood and the
   9  letter and the spirit bear witness, the infallibility of divine
     metaphysics will be demonstrated.]]]
         I. God is infinite, the only Life, substance, Spirit, or
  12  Soul, the only intelligence of the universe, including man.
     Eye hath neither seen God nor His image and

    The deific
    supremacy

     likeness. Neither God nor the perfect man
  15  can be discerned by the material senses. The individ-
     uality of Spirit, or the infinite, is unknown, and thus a
     knowledge of it is left either to human conjecture or to the
  18  revelation of divine Science.
         II. God is what the Scriptures declare Him to be,--
     Life, Truth, Love. Spirit is divine Principle, and divine
  21  Principle is Love, and Love is Mind, and

    The deific
    definitions

     Mind is not both good and bad, for God is
     Mind; therefore there is in reality one Mind only, be-
  24  cause there is one God.
         III. The notion that both evil and good are real is a
     delusion of material sense, which Science annihilates.
  27  Evil is nothing, no thing, mind, nor power.

    Evil
    obsolete

     As manifested by mankind it stands for a lie,
     nothing claiming to be something,--for lust, dishonesty,
  30  selfishness, envy, hypocrisy, slander, hate, theft, adultery,
     murder, dementia, insanity, inanity, devil, hell, with all
     the etceteras that word includes.
