IS THERE A PERSONAL DEVIL? – 8
The claims of evil become both less and more in Christian Science, than in human philosophies or creeds: more, because the evil that is hidden by dogma and human reason is uncovered by Science; and less, because evil, being thus uncovered, is found out, and exposure is nine points of destruction. Then appears the grand verity of Christian Science: namely, that evil has no claims and was never a claimant; for behold evil (or devil) is, as Jesus said, “a murderer from the beginning, and the truth abode not in him.” (Eddy, Mary Baker, No and Yes, p.24:15-24)
