ORTAL existence is an enigma. Every day is a mystery. The testimony of the corporeal senses

cannot inform us what is real and what is delusive, but the revelations of Christian Science unlock the treasures of Truth. Whatever is false or sinful can never enter the atmosphere of Spirit. There is but one Spirit. Man is never God; but spiritual man, made in His likeness, reflects God. In this Scientific reflection the Ego and the Father are inseparable. The supposition that corporeal beings are spirits, or that there are good and evil spirits, is a mistake.

The divine Mind maintains all identities as distinct

and eternal, from a blade of grass to a star. The question is, What are God's identities? What is Soul? Does life or soul exist in the thing formed?
