   1  evil confers no pleasure, they turn from it. [[[Remove error
     from thought, and it will not appear in effect. The ad-

     and its Science, will support them. Another will say:
   6  "Go thy way for this time; when I have a convenient

         Divine Science adjusts the balance as Jesus adjusted
   9  it. Science removes the penalty only by first removing

         Our heavenly Father, divine Love, demands that all
     men should follow the example of our Master and his

     has come so generally to mean public worship instead of
  30  daily deeds.
