________________ Faith in Religion. 97 In taking revenge a man is but on the same low level as his enemy, but in passing it over he is superior, for it is a prince's part to pardon. It is the glory of a man to pass by the offence. 220 98 We pray to be forgiven all our wrong doings but we forget we were taught to say "forgive us, as we forgive those who wrong us." We have to give before we ask to be given to. 99 Prayer is not to be used as a confe ssional to cancel sin. Asking god to be God is vain reptition. Who would stand before a blackboard and pray the principal of mathematics to solve the problem? The rule is already established and it is our task to work out the solution. Prayer cannot change the Science of being but it tends to bring us into harmony with it. -Mary Baker Eddy. 100 If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, remove hence to younder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you. -Bible.
