I have heard no word from you and I did so hope to hear before this. I asked you in
my lastEditorial Note: This letter is not extant. if you would please answer this question by yes or no- Does God know of this dream of error? Or does he know we are in this cloud of error? I ask it because I do not know, and so many have asked me. If not, people think it limits his Omnipresence - His knowledge - please answer - either by telegram or letter - I find almost an equal number
of passages in your bookEditorial Note: Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy and if I could get the key as to which is correct then I could see your meaning - this has troubled me quite

request to build the three templesMatt 17:1 And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them
up into an high mountain apart, Matt 17:2 And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment
was white as the light. Matt 17:3 And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with him. Matt 17:4 Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou
wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one
for Elias. Matt 17:5 While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out
of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear
ye him. Matt 17:6 And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their face, and were sore afraid. Matt 17:7 And Jesus came and touched them, and said, Arise, and be not afraid. Matt 17:8 And when they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no man, save Jesus only. Matt 17:9 And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying, Tell the vision
to no man, until the Son of man be risen again from the dead. Mark 9:2 ¶And after six days Jesus taketh with him Peter, and James, and John, and leadeth them up into an high mountain apart by themselves:
and he was transfigured before them. Mark 9:3 And his raiment became shining, exceeding white as snow; so as no fuller on earth
can white them. Mark 9:4 And there appeared unto them Elias with Moses: and they were talking with Jesus. Mark 9:5 And Peter answered and said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: and let
us make three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias. Mark 9:6 For he wist not what to say; for they were sore afraid. Mark 9:7 And there was a cloud that overshadowed them: and a voice came out of the cloud, saying,
This is my beloved Son: hear him. Mark 9:8 And suddenly, when they had looked round about, they saw no man any more, save Jesus
only with themselves. Mark 9:9 And as they came down from the mountain, he charged them that they should tell no
man what things they had seen, till the Son of man were risen from the dead. Luke 9:28 ¶And it came to pass about an eight days after these sayings, he took Peter and John
and James, and went up into a mountain to pray. Luke 9:29 And as he prayed, the fashion of his countenance was altered, and his raiment was white and glistering. Luke 9:30 And, behold, there talked with him two men, which were Moses and Elias: Luke 9:31 Who appeared in glory, and spake of his decease which he should accomplish at Jerusalem.
Luke 9:32 But Peter and they that were with him were heavy with sleep: and when they were awake,
they saw his glory, and the two men that stood with him. Luke 9:33 And it came to pass, as they departed from him, Peter said unto Jesus, Master, it
is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for thee, and one
for Moses, and one for Elias: not knowing what he said. Luke 9:34 While he thus spake, there came a cloud, and overshadowed them: and they feared as
they entered into the cloud. Luke 9:35 And there came a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him.
Luke 9:36 And when the voice was past, Jesus was found alone. And they kept it close, and told no man in those days any of those things which they had seen. when Jesus was upon earth. After sitting under your teaching -and having that perfect
