SIGNS OF THE TIMES

   Is God infinite? Yes. Did God make man? Yes.
Did God make all that was made? He did. Is God
Spirit? He is. Did infinite Spirit make that which is
not spiritual? No. Who or what made matter? Matter
as substance or intelligence never was made. Is mortal
man a creator, is he matter or spirit? Neither one. Why?
Because Spirit is God and infinite; hence there can be
no other creator and no other creation. Man is but His
image and likeness.
   Are you a Christian Scientist? I am. Do you adopt
as truth the above statements? I do. Then why this
meaningless commemoration of birthdays, since there are
none?
   Had I known what was being done in time to have
prevented it, that which commemorated in deed or in
word what is not true, would never have entered into the

history of our church buildings. Let us have no more of
echoing dreams. Will the beloved students accept my
full heart's love for them and their kind thoughts.
