CHAPTER XII.
RECAPITULATION.
Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter. Fear God, and keep
His commandments, for this is the whole duty of man. For God shall
bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be
good, or whether it be evil. — Ecclesiastes.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.
THIS chapter is from the first edition of my classbook,
copyrighted in 1870. It is a condensation
of my treatise, and important to learners. The theology
of Christian Science pervades its entire statement from
beginning to end, and supports the only true medical
practice. The Science of Healing, through Mind, is
built on no other basis than God, the unerring Mind.
Question. — What is God?
Answer. — God is Supreme Individual Being, Divine Principle, Eternal Mind.
Question. — What is Principle?
Answer. — Life, Truth, Love, Soul, Substance, and Intelligence.
Question. — Is there more than one Principle?
Answer. — There is not. There is but one Life, one Substance, one Truth; and this is God, omnipotence, omniscience, and omnipresence. Omni is from the Latin omnus, — all. Hence God signifies all-power, all-science, all-presence. The varied manifestations of Science, under the different terms for it, have but one Principle.
