| 1 | the important points, or religious tenets, of Christian |
| | Science:-- |
| 3 | 1. As adherents of Truth, we take the inspired Word |
| | of the Bible as our sufficient guide to eternal Life. |
| | 2. We acknowledge and adore one supreme and in- |
| 6 | finite God. We acknowledge His Son, one Christ; the |
| | Holy Ghost or divine Comforter; and man in God's |
| | image and likeness. |
| 9 | 3. We acknowledge God's forgiveness of sin in the |
| | destruction of sin and the spiritual understanding that |
| | casts out evil as unreal. But the belief in sin is pun- |
| 12 | ished so long as the belief lasts. |
| | 4. We acknowledge Jesus' atonement as the evi- |
| | dence of divine, efficacious Love, unfolding man's unity |
| 15 | with God through Christ Jesus the Way-shower; and |
| | we acknowledge that man is saved through Christ, |
| | through Truth, Life, and Love as demonstrated by the |
| 18 | Galilean Prophet in healing the sick and overcoming |
| | sin and death. |
| | 5. We acknowledge that the crucifixion of Jesus and |
| 21 | his resurrection served to uplift faith to understand eter- |
| | nal Life, even the allness of Soul, Spirit, and the noth- |
| | ingness of matter. |
| 24 | [[[6. And we solemnly promise to watch, and pray for |
| | that Mind to be in us which was also in Christ Jesus; to |
| | do unto others as we would have them do unto us; and |
| 27 | to be merciful, just, and pure.]]] |
