May 21, 1903. The true Science – divine Science – will be lost sight of again unless we arouse ourselves. This demonstrating to make matter build up is not Science. This building up of churches, the writing of articles and the speaking in public is the old way of building up a cause. The way I brought this Cause into sight was through HEALING: and now these other things would come in and hide it just as was done in the time of Jesus. Now this Cause must be saved and I pray God to be spared for this work. If there is not work done in the line of Spirit – not matter – or overcoming the material way (I have always stood for God alone), if I were not here to still stand, the Catholics and Spiritualists would wipe every Christian Scientist out. Now you see what we have to do for the world; be a transparency for SPIRIT. Things much turn and overturn, until He whose right it is shall reign. Mary Baker Eddy (Oakes, Richard, Course In Divinity and General Collectanea, p.3)
