Please see below for complete Text Content of this SUBTITLE.
  	    The chief difficulty in conveying the teachings of divine
  	Science accurately to human thought lies in this, that like
15	all other languages, English is inadequate to	                                Language
  	the expression of spiritual conceptions and	                                inadequate 
  	propositions, because one is obliged to use material terms
18	in dealing with spiritual ideas. The elucidation of Chris-
  	tian Science lies in its spiritual sense, and this sense must
  	be gained by its disciples in order to grasp the meaning of
21	this Science. Out of this condition grew the prophecy
  	concerning the Christian apostles, "They shall speak with
  	new tongues." 
24	    Speaking of the things of Spirit while dwelling on
  	a material plane, material terms must be generally em-
  	ployed. Mortal thought does not at once catch the
27	higher meaning, and can do so only as thought is edu-
  	cated up to spiritual apprehension. To a certain extent
  	this is equally true of all learning, even that which is
30	wholly material.
