POPE A NATIVE OF GADSDEN, ALABAMA. The address made I by Rev. \V. McKenzie In the convention hall of the Klmbnl! house Thursday night on Christian Science, or "How to Escape From Evil," attracted a large audience, 'he hah being filled to overflowing. Dr. McKensle handled the subject with much care and thought, and so Intent were the people throughout the evening to hear what he had to say on the sub ject, that there was scarcely a move ment by anyone In the audience. The lecture was one of merit, and will no doubt have a most beneficial Influence upon all those who were fortunato enough to be present. Rev. William P. McKensle, C. 8. B., Is Jrom Cam bridge. Mass., and Is a member of the Christian Science board of lectureship of the First Church of Christ, Scientist, In Boston. Moss. Professor J. R. Moseley, of Macon, Ga., Introduced Dr. McKenzie to the audience. Professor Moseley Is a Christian Scientist of much learning and culture. His Introduction was happy one. In part he said: Professor Mosoloy's Introduction. "Whatever may be our different con ceptions of Christian Science, we can agree as to the way and the only way to come to a true and adequate con ception of the subject. Like every thing else with which we have to do, It has to be approached In the spirit of truth and love. It has to be dealt with according to the scientific method and In the Christian spirit. "The scientific method as defined by President Remsen, of Johns Hopkins University, Is to ‘first study the facts and then draw the deductions from the facts.’ It Is to ‘get the facts and let them speak for themselves.’ The scien tific man has-no prejudices or biases. He Is curious to know, and strives to know, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. He Is, to quote President Remsen once again, 'a Juror passing upon the facts.’. The scientific method is thus the Christian method, the method which proves all things and holds fast to that which Is true and good and discards that which Is false and bad. It Is ever ready to discard that which I* less perfect for that which la more perfect that It may lead up to that which Is perfect. Demands th* Truth. The Christian spirit demands even more than an effort to know the truth Intellectually, t It Includes the desire and effort to bear witness to truth, to live the truth, when It Is known and as fast as it Is known. It Is necessary to love the truth, to will to live the truth. In order to clearly know the truth os the truth. The lover Is always the true seer, the doer the true knower. The seeker of truth Is the finder, nnd the lover of truth the only true seeker. Hence the spirit of truth and the spirit of. love in the high Christian sense In which they are employed In Christian Science are one. Science (truth) and Christianity are also one. “Christian Science in asking to lie approached In the Christian spirit and to be proved or disproved by the scien tific methods, Is only asking what It freely gives. Christian Scientists are taught by their Leader nnd by their religion to be Just and loving to every body and everything. Indeed, one Is n Christian Scientist only to the degree that he Ik governed by the spirit of truth and the spirit of love, as he abounds In the knowledge and love of God and of the things of God. as he bears 'the fruit of the Spirit' and ab stains from 'the works of the flesh.' as he has a Chrlst-llkc spirit and lives a Chrlst-llkc life. Whr.t Christian Scianca Bslisvts. • "All religions and all moral systems believe In the power of good, the power of God, to overcome here or some where some, If not all, of the evils under which we groan longing to be delivered Christian science believes In the power and willingness of God to overcome all evil and to overcome It here and now. All Christians believe, or at least hope, that Christ Is able as well as willing to save from sin. If not here and now, somewhere nnd at some time.

"Christian Scientist* believe that the only limit to this power Is the self-im posed limit to think right and to pray aright, and to live right. And even this limit Is removed as we let this mind be In us which was also In Christ Je sus. In like manner Christian Science teaches that all of the other symptoms of God and all the attributes of God can and will overcome all their sup positional opposites. In fact Christian Science sets no limit td the power of God, to Christ and to goodness to save to the utmost and to save now and tc save forever. . “Like you not such faith as this whether you think if possible to realize or not? 'Will you not wish' It true?' And as Browning says of Christianity, ’Has It your vote to be so if It can?' A Beautiful Tribute. “But I am not hero to discuss Chris tian Science, but to Introduce the speaker of the evening. He will tell you the theme Is too large to more than introduce to you In a single evening. He will tell you to be In the true sense even a student of Christian Science, one must begin to study and reduce to practice the teachings of Its text-books —the Bible and "Science and Health, with Key to the Scriptures.' While he would have me point you away from himself to God, to Christ and to the Science of Christ's Christianity, I want to say that few men I have ever known are so well qualified as he himself Is to discuss the subject and to tell us the truth as the life-work and exalted Christian character of Us present day discoverer and founder. I have special pleasure In introducing him to you. Be ginning with- the first day, even the very hour I met him, over seven years ago, anil continuing until now, he has meant good and only good to me. Al though I was a stranger, he took me Into his well-ordered home, and best of sill, Into his weil-tralned and richly furnished mind. Into his beautiful and poetic soul, and Into Ills large und tov Ing heart. He has been to trie both i friend and a brother, and at times al most a father: and what he has been to me he has been to many and would be to all. 1 now Introduce to you Rev. William P. McKensle. who will address us upon the subject of Christian Scl ehce. - ' Dr. McKensle spoke in part as fol lows: ‘Christian Science comes to give substance to the good that many have hitherto hoped for. and the assembling of large audiences to listen to lectures upon the subject Indicates that many have an intuitive expectation of finding their hope satisfied In harmony with Christianity, und also In accord, wltl Science, Christian Scisncs Based Upon Serip tural Truth. Christian Science has for Its text book, or Instruction manual, u book first publl>:-ed In 1876 by Mary Baker O. Eddy, and entitled 'Science and Health With Key to the Scriptures. The author Is now known to the world the woman who has given to this age the true Idee of God, and ns the philosopher and thinker who has revo lutionized the sense of Christianity from theoretical to practical, so that the medieval belief of Christianity as a scheme for. a future world salvation Is changing to the primitive conception of Chrlstlurilty ns a means for reveal ing to then on earth the gdodness of God In heating and salvation. "In her book there are over eight hundred citations from Scripture, hence we may sec that her exploration of the Bible In seeking the foundation for Christian Science was thorough: but It Is to the students of its pages thnt the significance of the title, 'Science and Health With Key to the Scrip tures.' Is made apparent; for they find nn Inspiration for earnest and practi cal study of the Bible. In commercial circles It Is granted that greatly In creased sales of Bibles may be cred ited to the Influence of Christian Science. In the public services of the movement the Holy Scriptures are given a place such as 'the book of the law of Moses’ had In the day* of the return from captivity In Babylon un der Nehemlah, when readers were ap pointed who caused the people to un derstand the law. Christian 8ci*ntists Art Optimists. "The question presented to every man Is really this: To what do you give power? Evil or good? Christian Scientists, by virtue of , their expe rience, are confirmed optimists. They have- seen healing accomplished when human love and human skill had given up hope. They have seen apparently Inrurnble bad habits changed with such a change In life as yearly takes place In the earth when the barren cold yields to the beneficent warmth of spring. They have seen bitterness and cynicism and cruelty melt away, and kindness and Joy and gentle courtesy take their place. They find that their faithful application of the teachings of Christian Sciepce to all the problems of life have brought so many solutions and proofs of the power of good to overcome evil, that they can foresee the ultimate triumph of good: and -forget ting the things that are behind,' they ■ press forward In the direction of that goal. Evil is Not a Beneficent Reality. "Some teachers who are selfless and sincere argue that moral evil and phys leal pain are not only realities, but beneficent realities. Observing how a good deed shines In a naughty world, they seem -to think that the good deed owes Its lustre to the .surrounding wickedness. They Infer that the pa tience of the bed-ridden Invalid Is the product of I/s pain, and that the moral courage of the world’s reformers Is due to the wickedness they opposed. But It is his vision of God that Inspires the saint to be meek nnd the reformer to be fearless, and In that vision physical pain and moral evil have no part. The beauty of the vision of God was given to us In Christ Jesus, who said; 'H- that hath seen me hath seen the Fa ther.' I never heard It argued that His goodness and power to bless had any other source than the Father-God with whom He was one. He was recognised as the expressed Image of God's char acter, but who would say that the hy pocrisy of the Pharisees, the envy of the priests, the treachery of a disciple, were' agencies In forming the Chrlstly nature? Why, then, will men argue for the beneficent reality of evil? If evil works good, then Its agents are our benefactors: and why should the most active doers of evil be restrained from their beneficent activity by our prls ons? If physical pain Is the teacher of fortitude, why build hospitals and at tempt to heal pain? "The philosophy of contrast Is also urged. How are we to value honesty If tHleves do not help us: how appreciate truth If nn liars ubnund: how be grateful for the case of health If It be not Offset by disease? This leads too far. If the action of error Is In any way conceived of as having place in the plan of God: because It would Include In that plan all the workers of Iniquity. If lying lips were ordained to teach us to value truth, they could not then be "abomi nation to the Lftrd." If It Is only by meeting offences that we grow In grace, then blessed Is the man by whom the offence eometh—blessed be Ahab und Jezebel: blessed be Annnlns: blessed be Herod and Judos! But this we do not bellevq. When we say, 'Blessed Is he that cometli In tho name of the Lord,' we mean ‘one thnt bringeth good tid ings, that publlsheth peace.' “It ought to*be universally clear to S uman comprehension tlmt evil In be ef constitutes n condition of perverse ness or reversal from which conversion must be gained, before what Is true and normal can be known nt all, nr man be apparent as the likeness of God. Jesus represents the Son of God. Judns presents the reversal of true manhood or integrity, and In that con dition of mind misrepresents both man and God. It ought to be t-lenr, also, that the process of overcoming evil with good is not a struggle with ad verse environment, but a contest with wrong habits of thinking. The kingdom of heaven must first be established within. Godliness or goodness must dis place ungodliness or goodlessness. Analysis of 6in. "Here we are confronted with a con dition which seems to be a concomi tant part of man's history, which theo logians discuss under the name of sin. Some teachers claim this to be the great activity of the present life, and some believe Its disastrous effects to be eternal. But If we scientifically ex amine the claims of sin, we see how they can be overcome and annulled ns they were'by the Master who 'was In all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.' The first axiom regarding man In Scripture Is that he was made In the Image and after the likeness of God. Jesus reminded his disciples nf what this Implied, saying, 'Be ye therefore perfect, even as *-our Father which Is In heaven Is perfect.’ What, then, U sin? It ls any theory, belief, thought or action which misrepresents the like ness of God. Per contra, what Is righteousness but right Hctlon, correct conduct, truthful thinking, whereby man expresses as God's Imago 'the beauty of holiness.' “We have the right to expect of men that they will express God's likeness. Is It not so that the faith and trust of almost every child asks this of us? Th» child ' expects truthfulness, relies upon kindness, trusts good ness, has faith In love. Why are de falcation and graft so severely con demned? Not only because the breach of trust disappoints our expectation regarding the one man who Is untrue, but because It poisons us with suspi cion of others, and makes us doubtful regarding manhood. On the other hand, why I* It that a true man helps us and gives us Joy and hope. He lifts up again the fallen ideal of ntan; he restore* our trust In manhootT; he expresses God's likeness nnd reassures us of good. '•t’hrlstlan Science deals successfully with sin as with sickness, healing both conditions of distress, overcoming moral evil with spiritual good.

Christian Science shows that what is good eotne* from God primarily and that men need not hurt nor destroy other men In order to nnd good. It reveal* the fact that good come* according to Inflexible principle, changeless from age to age, ever providing blessedness for the pure, the honest, the chaste, the truth ful, the loving. Dtllveranc* from Evil. "Should there remain any misconcep tion regarding the possible perma nence of sin and error, consider the petition used universally by Christians to express their desire for divine guid ance. The Master fj-amed It first for the disciples, who said to him: 'Teach us to pray.' When communing with Spirit, we say to the Heavenly Father, 'I,eafl us not Into temptation (where all other leadership than Thine takes us), but deliver us from evil.' Some commentators read'the petition a* If they thought It customary for us to be scathed by temptation at the hands ■if God. nnd this were a Rraycr for special exemption from the regular process. But there Is good sense In the words of James: 'Let no innn say when he Is tempted, I am tempted of God, Tor God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth lie any man.' "If God were tempted with evil or knew evil, how could we expect from God deliverance from It? If evil con stituted part of the dlvfne knowledge, we should have to learn evil In knowing God. Jesus taught that to know the true Ood was life and peace. If this be so, and we may not doubt the one Who best proved Kis teqeliinsn, lltti, We are delivered from evil and find It to be neither actual nor real IB proportion as we follow the guidance of Spirit. This llie Psalmist understood when lie said: 'Thou art my Ood: Thy Spirit Is good; lead me In the way of uprightness.' Christian Science teaches that the eter nal Principle underlying all reality Is good; hence Ml forms of evil are tran sient and false conceptions, existing because of recognition, yet having no teal being. Message of Faith. "A senator whq)«! custom it was to question men and women of wide ex perience and proved ability, regarding their belief In Immortality, found that they were more deeply interested in this than all other subjects put to gether: Said one: ‘I would rather be sure that w hen a man dies he will live again with his conscious identity than to have all the wealth of the United States, or to occupy-any position of honor or power the world could possi bly give.' This Is what many men ould say; but they are not sure of God, 'In whom we live:' they hold the ories regarding the resurrection of the 8on of Ood, and so do not 'know the power of Ills resurrection' (Phil. 3:10); anti they nre uncertain regarding man, deriving him front dust, rather than mind, -and so are Insecure regarding immortality. How reassuring and com forting. then, Is the message of Chris tian Science, coming to restore to men true faith In Got], faith In the risen Christ, fnlth In enduring life. Manifestation of Lov*. “The effect of that faith which says to divine love, 'Lead us,' and thereby finds deliverance from evil must ex press Itself In peach on earth nnd good will to men. The universal practical effect of Christian Science Is to revive the faith and quicken the understand ing of mankind; but It goes further In also quickening that kind of love whereby man expresses to his neighbor the likeness of God. Since Christ Jesus healed the sick and cast out evils, so of His followers must It be said that the wifrk* He did they do also. When Mrs. Kddy associated her students for organized effort, site recognized this, purpose and organised a church ‘de- I signed to commemorate the word and works of our Master, which should re instate primitive Christianity and Its lost element of healing.' Her elucida tion of good end her teaching, both by precept anil example, of the Science whereby evil of every kind Is overcome by good, place the leader of the Chris tian Science movement In the forefront of .Christian teachers. Her selfless consecration enabled her to discover divine Science, and her love for hu manity Impelled her to demonstrate it In healing the sick and to tench it. The text-book, Science and Health, teaches the universal truth, but her other writ ings make us acquainted with the au thor, who has taught by example as much as by precept; and earth's best blessing Is the Inspiration given by n holy life. "The purpose of love Is to make Its object lovable. Mrs. Eddy, the Dis coverer and Founder of Chrlstlasi Science, expresses a universal kind ness, with the evident desire that all mankind may be weaned from believing In evil, and taught to express man's true nature in the likeness of God, who Is Love. Those who know her best know- the trustworthiness df her mo tives, Hie Integrity of her alms, and the tireless Industry of her life. When others become awake to Influences by which they have been blessed, they will appreciate-anil love the one who hat> been the iwtlent servant anil friend nt man. anti w ill 'rise up anil call her blessed.'
