Ques.Expanded:Question 1.st What is man as God created him?

Ans.Expanded:Answer Man is the idea of a principles eternal with God [?] Unclear or illegible it. and this pincipleCorrected:principle is God which created, only the idea of man. which was the hi [?] Unclear or illegible ghest idea of Himself, theis eternal Principle.

Ques.Expanded:Question 2.ondOriginal:2nd What is theis principle?

Ans.Expanded:Answer Wisdom, love & truth.

Ques.Expanded:Question 3.rd What is the idea of this principle?

AnsExpanded:Answer The body or p person [?] Unclear or illegible  [?] Unclear or illegible  man.

Ques.Expanded:Question 4.th Is the body of man man matter?

AnsExpanded:Answer Certainly it is not matter, if by matter you mean substance.

Ques.Expanded:Question 5th Is there no substance then?

AnsExpanded:Answer There is substance in principle, there is no other substance.

Ques.Expanded:Question 6.th And why not?

Ans.Expanded:Answer Because substance is an eternal principle, it is also immortal, it is life & not death, therefore it cannot dwell in mortality even for a moment, but it is a principle outside of it. & is the intelligence of to the idea man; & and there is no other inteligenceCorrected:intelligence but the intelligencent of principle; matter has no intelligence, and beflief has no intelligence, for belief is an error. and error is not immortal, it cannot create, neither was it created. it is simply the absence of substance and an illusion.

Ques.Expanded:Question 7.th Is substance life, & intelligence? and is there no other substance?

Ans.Expanded:Answer Certainly there is not.

Ques.Expanded:Question 8.th What is intelligence?

Ans.Expanded:Answer God.

Ques.Expanded:Question 9th What is God?

Ans.Expanded:Answer Wisdom.

QuesExpanded:Question 10th What is wisdom?

Ans.Expanded:Answer A principle.

Ques.Expanded:Question 11.th What is a principle?

AnsExpanded:Answer Intelligence, substance, & life.

[*]Gap: letter.Reason: page cut.ues 12.th What is intelligence substance & life?

Ans.Expanded:Answer The principle eternal, or the triune God, viz Wisdom, love & truth: none of which are matter.

Ques.Expanded:Question 13.th

How can a principle be destinguished Corrected: distinguished from a belief?

Ans.Expanded:Answer A principle can be learned only of science. and when it is learned understood it can be demonstrated as truth; a belief requires no proof for it cannot be proved but truth "is known by its works." If inharmony of any sort is manifest [?] Unclear or illegible , know that truth has not caused it. for the results of Wisdom love & truth. is the refsults of a principle and a principle cannot change or err all is harmony which results from e a principle, but this harmony is not always understood, the principle not being seen. and science, not beflief, teaches the principle

Ques.Expanded:Question 14.th

Is man a principle, or a belief?

Ans.Expanded:Answer Wisdom created the body of man and wisdom is a principle. & a principle creates an its idea but never a belief, therefore, man was the likeness of God an its immortal & eternal principle; but belief says, man is a person & holds life in the idea, or body of man this is a shadow of shadows & an illusion; therefore belief is not science, for it is not the creation of a principle; the body of man in science is the shadow of substance, & the and the idea of a principle, and when you make a belief out of an idea you have no principle creating it, therefore that man is a belief it is the effect of error. When man holds the belief of life in his body man is then in error, and gets sick, and sins, because he is by his belief in an error, and must get into science to get back to the principle which controls error and destroys belief

[*]Gap: letter.Reason: page cut.ues 15th When will man arrive at the understanding of himself?

Ans.Expanded:Answer When all inteliligence he beh [?] Unclear or illegible olds in the principle, & as he returns to his primitive creation will he [?] Unclear or illegible  learn this wisdomeCorrected:wisdom love and truth which is the principle of all creation, and thus become an unerring immortality, a principle as he is & not a belief of matter as he now stands reckons himself but is not

QuesExpanded:Question 156th How can man understand himself a principle, after so long believeing Corrected: believing himself a person?

Ans.Expanded:Answer By learning this truth of science for science alone can teach a principle, it cannot be learned of a belief..

QuesExpanded:Question 17th What is a belief?

Ans.Expanded:Answer tThe opositeCorrected:opposite of trusth, for truth is a principle & a principle cannot change or die belief changes & dies.

Ques.Expanded:Question 18.th What is the oposite Corrected: opposite of etruth?

Ans.Expanded:Answer Error.

Ques.Expanded:Question 19.th What is error?

Ans.Expanded:Answer A belief and not a principle.

Qes.Expanded:Question 20.th Is error immortal, is it substance, or inteligenceCorrected:intelligence, which is life?

AnsExpanded:Answer It is neither of all these, inasmuch as it is not wi [?] Unclear or illegible sdom truth or and love, and these alone hath eternal life for they are a principle and a principle is God, which is life, inteligenceCorrected:intelligence & substance, there is none other.

Ques.Expanded:Question 21.st When How can we be in a principle when we are in a belief?

Ans.Expanded:Answer We are a principle because we are immortal, but we cannot hold our inteligence Corrected: intelligence in a principle and in a belief at the same time, so we hold [?] Unclear or illegible  that inteligenceCorrected:intelligence is in matter, or our body & have to suffer the effect of this error iuntil the error dies and we awaken out sideCorrected:outside of it, or else learn of science this awakening and save the suffering. We must understand a principle in order to hold our selvesCorrected:ourselves in it, and if we are in it we can draw others there, for if we understand it we can explain it.

QuesExpanded:Question 22ondOriginal:22nd

Can a person that is clarivoyentCorrected:clairvoyant, ieCorrected:i.e., whi[*]Gap: letters.Reason: page cut. sees outside of his personal senses – or one which heals without matter, not be said to be acting in the principle?

Ans.Expanded:Answer If this was understood, ieCorrected:i.e., if they [?] Unclear or illegible understood the science of their doing this and could teach it to others then would they hold their intelligence (which is themselves) in the principle of this phenomena but not until then. Healing the sick. or clairvoyance is like learning music from the ear instead of learning it from ethe principle in science so as to write & teach it. Unless the principle is understood you cannot act in it the principle and as it never has been taught in science by any writen Corrected: written or published MSSExpanded:Manuscripts. from any known individual but me, I claim that it cannot have been understood, except by Elijah, Jesus, his desciplesCorrected:disciples and Paul. and their writings do not teach it unless you understand their scientific meaning, and not the interpretations which beliefs hath given them. Perhaps even then science was not fully seen then, but their music that was perfect, ieCorrected:i.e., their healing & phenomena was learned of having seen it & heard it from Jesus. That which is understood can be explained and taught and this is to hold our intelligence in its principle, that which is practice only and not understood is a belief, and in doing that the intelligence is in a belief amdCorrected:and not in the principle. But a copy of truth is better than a copy of error, hence when they cast out develsCorrected:devils & healed the sick in the pa [?] Unclear or illegible st antCorrected:and present ages in the "name of Christ" they were not forbidenCorrected:forbidden, but the MasterEditorial Note: Jesus Christ saith "many shall come in my name"Matt 24:5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. To come in the name of truth is not to come in truth Christ was "the Truth & life,"John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. so if they had healed in the principle, they would have understood it, but as they healed in its name only it was a belief to them & the world no wiser for it

[*]Gap: letter.Reason: page cut.ues 2 [?] Unclear or illegible 3rd How shall we explain this science to a student, or to the sick so as to d [?] Unclear or illegible raw them away from beliefs so as to take them into the principle where all is understood and consequentyCorrected:consequently all is harmony?

Ans.Expanded:Answer By commencing with their stand pointsCorrected:standpoints of belief and arguing them down, and when reason is convinced, that is a growth, and growth is a c [?] Unclear or illegible hemical change which does not retrograde. Your cure is wisdom, if your work is done in scienceEditorial Note: Christian Science, you cure upon a principle which contradicts & destroys belief, because it explains it away and that which is understood we have no belief about, This is truth destroying error as by the chemical process of opposites meeting, in which the one destroys the other, or of the positive principle destroying the negative belief for negation belongs to error. this is what we call in healing the sick, a chemicleal change. its symtomsCorrected:symptoms are a stired Corrected: stirred up condition in which all the ailments seem agravated Corrected: aggravated or otherwise an opening of the avenues of the body or beliefs in which the dissolving error passes offEditorial Note: This is a reference to what Mary Baker Eddy calls “chemicalization.” Eddy uses this term to refer to a temporary stirring up of symptoms or process of “ fermentation” as errors of various types are being destroyed..

Ques.Expanded:Question 24.th In teaching this scienceEditorial Note: Christian Science which is the leading error to be attacked?

Ans.Expanded:Answer The first error of matter birth, viz the belief that man made you and that life was ever born into matter, or the body. This belief you are to assail with the oposite Corrected: opposite truth, that all life is a principle outside of matter. Your truth being positive and eternal and their neg [?] Unclear or illegible ative error being mortal, truth will destroy this belief in a degree so as to enable them to commence an return to understanding of the principle which they are, and which alone the eternal Principle Wisdom, created.

[*]Gap: letters.Reason: page cut.es. 25,th How should we proceed to d [?] Unclear or illegible estroy a belief?

Ans.Expanded:Answer Your creation is to be like the creation of wisdom when it createds the idea of truth which was is the body, [?] Unclear or illegible or man. You are to move upon the waves of intelligence first by addressing, their spiritual senses until your patient begins to percieveCorrected:perceive truth through the understanding, but this perception may not come to the personal seenses Corrected: senses for a little time after this, and yet the personal senses which is their body & the body is their belief, will be affected by it. OAftenr forming the idea of truth in the spiritual senses, then you are to impress the personal senses through their belief and explain away the error This is when the creation wrought by a principle saith "let there be light and there is light"Gen 1:3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. When the intelligence begins to explain the form anew in the principle, this is "being born agaisn"John 3:1 There was a man of the Pharisees, named
Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews: John 3:2 The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him. John 3:3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. John 3:4 Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother’s womb, and be born? John 3:5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. John 3:6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. John 3:7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. which is necessary to establish the "Kingdom of Heaven". which is the reign of the understanding of the understanding. This first formation in a principle and out of belief is as a blade of grass springing upward by degrees the understanding grows into truth, and is as that growth so shall be the next in order of creation until "you learn a parable of the fig tree"Matt 24:32 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh: Matt 24:33 So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors. Matt 24:34 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled. Matt 24:35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. Mark 13:28 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When her branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is near: Mark 13:29 So ye in like manner, when ye shall see these things come to pass, know that it is nigh, even at the doors. Mark 13:30 Verily I say unto you, that this generation shall not pass, till all these things be done. Mark 13:31 Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away. Luke 21:29 And he spake to them a parable; Behold the fig tree, and all the trees; Luke 21:30 When they now shoot forth, ye see and know of your own selves that summer is now nigh at hand. Luke 21:31 So likewise ye, when ye see these things come to pass, know ye that the kingdom of God is nigh at hand. Luke 21:32 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass away, till all be fulfilled. Luke 21:33 Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away. and you see a growth blossoming that bears fruit, ieCorrected:i.e., it brings along with it higher truth, clearer apprehension, until it reaches the principle and passes into it, and this is the full understanding when you see [?] Unclear or illegible  God. ieCorrected:i.e., see truth in a principle. Then are you "born again" & this is "the end of the world," "when lo! the summer is near" the time to mature the seeds of wisdom Man is out of matter just in proportion as he is out of belief and he is out of be flief just in proportion to his being in the understanding of [?] Unclear or illegible his principle.

[*]Gap: letter.Reason: page cut.ns. The practical application, or art of applying this science to the idea man so that he may be affected by it, Is first to leave your own belief or body when you will be in [?] Unclear or illegible  the principle & there be able to speak to another in theis principle which immediately controlesCorrected:controls the body. If this wisdom be not yet fully attained, the next method is by rubbing the head, while you at the same time take yourself utterly away from [*]Gap: letter.Reason: page cut.ll thoughts of his complaints, or their locality in matter [*]Gap: letter.Reason: page cut.nd looking away from all beliefs of man, attach your wisdom to the principle which speaks to the principle (for it is truth that heals, or destroys error) instead of addressing the personal senses of your patient in your arguments to convince his judgment that his belief is all the disease he has, and that Christ, or truth, said to this belief "it was a liar from the begining, and the truth abode not in it"John 8:44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. I John 2:4 He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. Showing him that the knowledge of man has decieved Corrected: deceived him and that he has passed into a belief from which truth alone can awaken him, and thus destroy it; and when this devil is cast out the dumb will speak, the deaf hear, the lame walkMatt 11:2 Now when John had heard in the prison the works of Christ, he sent two of his disciples, Matt 11:3 And said unto him, Art thou he that should come, or do we look for another? Matt 11:4 Jesus answered and said unto them, Go and shew John again those things which ye do hear and see: Matt 11:5 The blind receive their sight, and the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have the gospel preached to them. &CExpanded:et cetera. After this mode of arguing down the rerror of belief that life or sensation is in matter which requires three successive sittings, then speak to the student or patient verbally bringing this truth into personal contact with his belief, and explain the principle to him so that he may more clearly understand. but in doing this you are to "be wise as a serpent and harmrless as a dove"Matt 10:16 ¶Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves. Be not abrupt in giving any sudden wrench from old opinions by saying too suddenly you are not sick but reason him into listening gladly to this before you say it, and always support by undisputable logic and truth that which you assert

[*]Gap: letter.Reason: page cut.ues. 27. What is the principle of this science?

AnsExpanded:Answer God. and this is Wisdom. love and truth. Explain to the student that God is a principle instead of a person and this truth will be able to destroy the error of their educated belief that God is a person and changes for the prayers of man to give immediate response in some miracle – instead of God being an unchangeing principle the work of which was finished after evry idea of it it had was created [?] Unclear or illegible Gen 2:1 Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. . If you enable them to look away from their educated beliefs, then will they begin to see this, ie.Corrected:i.e. to understand it in their spiritual senses, and perceive how man was the image and likeness of wisdom a that is the principle and idea of outside of matter, and consequently outside of the body, for if he were in it he must be of it and then he would be mortal; hence the folly of belief, which admits man immortal and then places his immortality in mortality! this error also attempts to place a principle in a belief, a truth in an error, all of which the doctrines and theories of man attempt out of science. This is the madness Christ assailed in acusingCorrected:accusing them of gauthering grapes of thornsMatt 7:15 ¶Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Matt 7:16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? Matt 7:17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. Matt 7:18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Matt 7:19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.

Ques.Expanded:Question 28.th When teaching this truth is the learner is first to understand he is a principle, and not a person & secondly, that his life [?] Unclear or illegible the principle outside of his body is himself he

Ans,Expanded:Answer Certainly, and this will commence to take hi [?] Unclear or illegible m into intelligence away from the error of his belief that life is in matter and [*]Gap: letter.Reason: page cut.s that error which holds him from the understanding of this principle of science, [?] Unclear or illegible and that error which holds man from understanding God in truth & which has hitherto explained him a belief, a person & rerror.

Ques.Expanded:Question 29th Which is the next error to destroy by this truth of science that man is a principle outside of matter?

Ans.Expanded:Answer Science explains a principle, and is therefore the mediator between matter & principle or belief & Wisdom, then to explain the principle teaches the science by which we learn it, Therefore you are to commence with the phenomena of a principle and explain that in its relations to the principle, reasoning from effect to cause. The body of man is that which we see with our personal senses or belief, and we call it matter & matter substance this is an error and simply a belief it is not science for there are no proofs that substance is mortal. and belief is proved mortal and mutable There are proofs that principle is immortal, and this our body which is a belief of matter is mortal. Christ demonstrated this truth when he reproduced his body from its eternal principle and called the body of his desciples Corrected: disciples' belief a ghost! ieCorrected:i.e., a belief, and illusion. His body he regarded held in inAs Written:in truth and held it in science immortal as the phenomana Corrected: phenomena of its principle, in other words, the idea of the principle, & the shadow of himself [?] Unclear or illegible  which was its the principle and substance. This was its scientific creation by the Father Principle, and understanding this science he could demonstrate his control over belief which is called matter, and heal the body or belief which was sick through theis opposite error, of that life & intelligence was in their body. Also, holding his body in science he had no weight in it for no error of substance in matter was being there, hence he could take it over the waveMatt 14:22 ¶And straightway Jesus constrained his disciples to get into a ship, and to go before him unto the other side, while he sent the multitudes away. Matt 14:23 And when he had sent the multitudes away, he went up into a mountain apart to pray: and when the evening was come, he was there alone. Matt 14:24 But the ship was now in the midst of the sea, tossed with waves: for the wind was contrary. Matt 14:25 And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went unto them, walking on the sea. Matt 14:26 And when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a spirit; and they cried out for fear. Matt 14:27 But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid. Matt 14:28 And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto thee on the water. Matt 14:29 And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus. Matt 14:30 But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried, saying, Lord, save me. Matt 14:31 And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand, and caught him, and said unto him, O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt? Matt 14:32 And when they were come into the ship, the wind ceased. Matt 14:33 Then they that were in the ship came and worshipped him, saying, Of a truth thou art the Son of God. Matt 14:34 ¶And when they were gone over, they came into the land of
Gennesaret. Mark 6:45 And straightway he constrained his disciples to get into the ship, and to go to the other side before unto Bethsaida, while he sent away the people. Mark 6:46 And when he had sent them away, he departed into a mountain to pray. Mark 6:47 And when even was come, the ship was in the midst of the sea, and he alone on the land. Mark 6:48 And he saw them toiling in rowing; for the wind was contrary unto them: and about the fourth watch of the night he cometh unto them, walking upon the sea, and would have passed by them. Mark 6:49 But when they saw him walking upon the sea, they supposed it had been a spirit, and cried out: Mark 6:50 For they all saw him, and were troubled. And immediately he talked with them, and saith unto them, Be of good cheer: it is I; be not afraid. Mark 6:51 And he went up unto them into the ship; and the wind ceased: and they were sore amazed in themselves beyond measure, and wondered. Mark 6:52 For they considered not the miracle of the loaves: for their heart was hardened. Mark 6:53 And when they had passed over, they came into the land of Gennesaret, and drew to the shore. John 6:15 ¶When Jesus therefore perceived that they would come and take him by force, to make him a king, he departed again into a mountain himself alone. John 6:16 And when even was now come, his disciples went down unto the sea, John 6:17 And entered into a ship, and went over the sea toward Capernaum. And it was now dark, and Jesus was not come to them. John 6:18 And the sea arose by reason of a great wind that blew. John 6:19 So when they had rowed about five and twenty or thirty furlongs, they see Jesus walking on the sea, and drawing nigh unto the ship: and they were afraid. John 6:20 But he saith unto them, It is I; be not afraid. John 6:21 Then they willingly received him into the ship: and immediately the ship was at the land whither they went. and control all conditions of belief. there are no conditions of matter.

Matt 14:15 ¶And when it was evening, his disciples came to him, saying, This is a desert place, and the time is now past; send the multitude away, that they may go into the villages, and buy themselves victuals.

Matt 14:18 He said, Bring them hither to me. Matt 14:19 And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the grass, and took the five loaves, and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed, and brake, and gave the loaves to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude.

Matt 14:21 And they that had eaten were about five thousand men, beside women and children. Mark 6:31 And he said unto them, Come ye yourselves apart into a desert place, and rest a while: for there were many coming and going, and they had no leisure so much as to eat.

Mark 6:33 And the people saw them departing, and many knew him, and ran afoot thither out of all cities, and outwent them, and came together unto him. Mark 6:34 And Jesus, when he came out, saw much people, and was moved with compassion toward them, because they were as sheep not having a shepherd: and he began to teach them many things. Mark 6:35 And when the day was now far spent, his disciples came unto him, and said, This is a desert place, and now the time is far passed: Mark 6:36 Send them away, that they may go into the country round about, and into the villages, and buy themselves bread: for they have nothing to eat. Mark 6:37 He answered and said unto them, Give ye them to eat. And they say unto him, Shall we go and buy two hundred pennyworth of bread, and give them to eat? Mark 6:38 He saith unto them, How many loaves have ye? go and see. And when they knew, they say, Five, and two fishes. Mark 6:39 And he commanded them to make all sit down by companies upon the green grass. Mark 6:40 And they sat down in ranks, by hundreds, and by fifties. Mark 6:41 And when he had taken the five loaves and the two fishes, he looked up to heaven, and blessed, and brake the loaves, and gave them to his disciples to set before them; and the two fishes divided he among them all. Mark 6:42 And they did all eat, and were filled. Mark 6:43 And they took up twelve baskets full of the fragments, and of the fishes. Mark 6:44 And they that did eat of the loaves were about five thousand men. Luke 9:12 And when the day began to wear away, then came the twelve, and said unto him, Send the multitude away, that they may go into the towns and country round about, and lodge, and get victuals: for we are here in a desert place. Luke 9:13 But he said unto them, Give ye them to eat. And they said, We have no more but five loaves and two fishes; except we should go and buy meat for all this people. Luke 9:14 For they were about five thousand men. And he said to his disciples, Make them sit down by fifties in a company. Luke 9:15 And they did so, and made them all sit down.

John 6:1 After these things Jesus went over the sea of Galilee, which is the sea of Tiberias. John 6:2 And a great multitude followed him, because they saw his miracles which he did on them that were diseased. John 6:3 And Jesus went up into a mountain, and there he sat with his disciples. John 6:4 And the passover, a feast of the Jews, was nigh. John 6:5 ¶When Jesus then lifted up his eyes, and saw a great company come unto him, he saith unto Philip, Whence shall we buy bread, that these may eat? John 6:6 And this he said to prove him: for he himself knew what he would do. John 6:7 Philip answered him, Two hundred pennyworth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may take a little. John 6:8 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, saith unto him, John 6:9 There is a lad here, which hath five barley loaves, and two small fishes: but what are they among so many? John 6:10 And Jesus said, Make the men sit down. Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand. John 6:11 And Jesus took the loaves; and when he had given thanks, he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to them that were set down; and likewise of the fishes as much as they would. John 6:12 When they were filled, he said unto his disciples, Gather up the fragments that remain, that nothing be lost. John 6:13 Therefore they gathered them together, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves, which remained over and above unto them that had eaten. John 6:14 Then those men, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did, said, This is of a truth that prophet that should come into the world. Matt 15:32 ¶Then Jesus called his disciples unto him, and said, I have compassion on the multitude, because they continue with me now three days, and have nothing to eat: and I will not send them away fasting, lest they faint in the way. Matt 15:33 And his disciples say unto him, Whence should we have so much bread in the wilderness, as to fill so great a multitude? Matt 15:34 And Jesus saith unto them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven, and a few little fishes. Matt 15:35 And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground. Matt 15:36 And he took the seven loaves and the fishes, and gave thanks, and brake them, and gave to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude. Matt 15:37 And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the broken meat that was left seven baskets full. Matt 15:38 And they that did eat were four thousand men, beside women and children. Matt 15:39 And he sent away the multitude, and took ship, and came into the coasts of Magdala. Mark 8:1 In those days the multitude being very great, and having nothing to eat, Jesus called his disciples unto him, and saith unto them, Mark 8:2 I have compassion on the multitude, because they have now been with me three days, and have nothing to eat: Mark 8:3 And if I send them away fasting to their own houses, they will faint by the way: for divers of them came from far. Mark 8:4 And his disciples answered him, From whence can a man satisfy these men with bread here in the wilderness? Mark 8:5 And he asked them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven.

Now let ius next consider what causes it; if truth produced it there would follow harmony and happiness, for in science the "tree is known by its fruit"Luke 6:43 For a good tree bringeth not forth corrupt fruit; neither doth a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Luke 6:44 For every tree is known by his own fruit. For of thorns men do not gather figs, nor of a bramble bush gather they grapes. and the effects are like the cause, truth produces truth, harmony, harmony &CExpanded:et cetera, error produces error, inharmony, inharmony.

Matt 7:16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? settle this question at once, that sickness being inharmony cannot be the result of truth.
