MATERIAL CHURCH ACTIVITY – 9
Men and women have never multiplied. There was never a birth nor a death of man, since man is the idea inseparable from his divine Principle which exists and coexists with God. Our only Father and Mother is God — therefore, the offspring of the flesh, born of a woman, is no more real, scientific or eternal, than a tumor, which the Christian Scientist labors to destroy and so heal the sick. Mary Baker Eddy (Carpenter, Gilbert, Essays On Christian Science, p.11)
