BE “SPIRIT”
“Spirit” is the subject of the
lesson-sermon in all the Churches
of Christ, Scientist, tomorrow.
The Golden Text is from First
Corinthians: 2:12
“We have received, not the
spirit of the world, but the
spirit which is of God; that we
might know the things that are
freely given io us of God.”
. Among the citations which
comprise the lesson-sermon is the
following from the Bible:
“Fear ye not, neither be
afraid; have not I told thee
from that time, and have de
clared it? ye are my witnesses.
Is there a God beside me?
Yea, there is no God; I know
not any.” (Isaiah 44:8).
The lesson sermon also includes
the following passage from the
Christian Science Text-book: “Sci
ence and Health, with Key to the
Scriptures,” by Mary Baker
Eddy:
“The Scriptures inform us
that man is made in the image
and likeness of God. Matter is
not that likeness. The likeness
of spirit cannot be so unlike
spirit. Man is spiritual and
perfect, and because he is
spiritual and perfect, he must be
so understood in Christian Sci
i ence.” (Page 475.)

GEORGE WASHINGTON
To 1h» Clergv ot Different Denominntiom.
Philadelphia. Pennevlvanta 11191)
“Believing as I do that religion and morality
are the essential pillars of civil society, I
view with unspeakable pleasure that harmony
and brotherly love which characterize the
clergy of different denominations, exhibiting
to the world a new and interesting spectacle,
at once the pride of our country and the surest
basis of universal peace.”
The Desire of Washington
For Divine Aid in His Crises
By ALBERT JOSEPH McCARTNEY
Pastor of the Covenant-First Presbyterian Church
Once in a country church where a number of Presbyterian
ministers were gathered together, at a luncheon, I heard an
octogenarian minister make this pungent remark: “God re
serves His heroes for such times as these.’' One cannot read
thoughtfully the history of America from its smallest begin
nings without feeling how trenchant the truism that ever
the hour and the man God brings together.” Certainly one
feels that in the two outstanding crises of our national his
tory a blessed Providence placed first Washington and then
Lincoln at the helm of the Ship of State.
I have just been reading an account of the incidents lead
ing up to the first inauguration, together with the addresses
made by Washington to the Senate, by the Senate to the
President, and in turn the reply of the President to the sen
atonal address. These arc followed by similar addresses on
the part of the House of Representatives to the President ami
the President’s reply to the Members of the House. I have
been profoundly impressed by the amount of space devoted
in each one of these addresses to the religious side of the
great and new adventure in political history. After a para
graph in which he recites his disinclination to assume the re
sponsibilities of state leadership and humbly recounts his
disqualifications he then devotes a long paragraph in which
he expresses his devotion to Almighty God and beseeches His
benediction to the end that it “may consecrate to the liberties
and happiness of the people of the United States a govern
ment instituted by themselves for these essential purposes.”
He expresses the confidence that not only the elected repre
sentatives there assembled but all “my fellow citizens at
large” share these sentiments. “No people can be bound to ac
knowledge and adore the Invisible Hand which conducts the
affairs of men more than those of the United States. Every
step by which they have advanced to the character of an
individual nation seems to have been distinguished by some
token of Providential Agency.” After he has addressed him
self to the present needs of the country he concludes his
inaugural by another tribute “to the benign Parent of the
Human Race in humble supplication. . . .so His divine bless
ing may be equally conspicuous in the enlarged views, the
temperate consultations, and wise measures on which the suc
cess of this Government must depend.”
To a religiously minded man it is refreshing to note in the
reply of the Senate to the President’s inaugural their ac
knowledgment of “the Great Arbiter of the universe, by
whom empires rise and fall.” The address of the House of
Representatives to the new President concludes thus: “All
that remains is that we join in our fervent supplications for
the blessings of Heaven on our country, and that we add our
own for the choicest of these blessings on the most beloved
of her citizens.”
“That Almighty Being who rules over the universe; the
Great. Autho;* of every public and private good; th! Invisible
Hand which conducts the affairs of men; Providential.
Agency; the benign Parent of the Human Race; His divine
blessings; the Great Arbiter of the universe ; the protection of
Almighty God; supplications for the blessings of Heaven on
our country”—such constitute the phrases in the historical
articles that frame the origin of the functioning of Ameri
can government. What has become of this note of recogni
tion of the leadership of Heaven, and our reliance upon
“Kiat Wisdom that, cometh down from above and is profita
ble to direct” in the affairs of state as in the affairs of
every individual citizen!
