CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
SERVICES SUNDAY
“Mortals and Immortals” is the
subject of the Lesson-Sermon which
will be read in all Churches of
Christ, Scientist, on Sunday, Nov.
17.
The Golden Text is: “Thou art no
more a servant, but a son; and if a
son, then an heir of God through
Christ” (Galatians 4:7).
Among the citations which com-
prise the Lesson-Sermon is the fol-
lowing from the Bible: “The Spirit
itself bcareth witness with our spir-
it, that we arc the children of God”
(Romans 8:16).
The Lesson-Sermon also includes
the following passage from the
Christian Science textbook, “Science
and Health with Key to the Scrip-
tures” by Mary Baker Eddy: “God
and man are not the same, but in
the order of divine Science, God and
man coexist and are eternal. God is
the parent Mind, and man is God’s
spiritual offspring'' (page 336).
