Contributed by the Timmins Christian Science Sociecty, Oddfellows Hall, Spruce Street North, Timmins % A group of women on their way to the sepulchre where the body of the crucified Jesus had been placed, asked among them seives (Mark 16:3), "Who shall roll us away the stone from the door of the sepulchre?" When the reached the tomb, the stone was already rolled away and their mission was transformed from a sad duty to a marvellous spiritual exâ€" perience. The body of Jesus was gone, but an angel was there who told them "He is risen; he is not here." Mary Magdalene was one of these women. She stood looking into the empty tomb and weeping for what material sense told her was gone, looking vainly into matter for reality and life. John tells us that when cshe turned away from this sad picâ€" ture, the risen Savionr stood before her. Had Mary begun to glimpse that life is not in matter, and that the Christ is untouched by sin and death? It is only as we turn away from error that we can behold the Christ, Truth. The recognition of life as omnipresent and indestructible opens the sepulchre of mortality, and shows the tomb of matter to be empty. Though it may seem that sinful or sick or povertyâ€"stricken beliefs have prevailed for a long time, our reâ€" surrection will come if we will but persist in our endeavour to forsake material belief and gain spiritual unâ€" derstaonding. _ We must seek good where alone it cssn be fonud â€" in Spirit, not in the tombs of matter or materiality. Mary Baker Eddy states in "Science and Health with Key to the Scripâ€" tures": "Glory be to God, and peace to the struggling hearts! Christ hath rolled away the stone from the door of human hope and faith, and through the revelation and demonstration of Life in God. hath elevated them to E. A.
