Angelic Overtures of Mary Baker Eddy's
"Christ and Christmas" |
|
Alice L. Orgain |
|
Excerpt from FOREWORD:
"THE TITLE of this book, Angelic
Overtures of Mary Baker Eddy's Christ and Christmas, has been
chosen in the light of Mrs. Eddy's placement of Christ and Christmas
in the charge of 'angels, with overtures' to 'announce' its 'Principle
and idea,' her statement in an article in Miscellaneous Writings
under the title of 'Christ and Christmas' reading as follows: ' ...
Christian Science and its art will rise triumphant; ... Angels, with
overtures, hold charge over both, and announce their Principle and idea'
(Mis. 374: 11-16)--implying that such angels alone hold the key to the
interpretation of Christ and Christmas. Could a book which
draws its every life breath from the inspiriting premises of Mrs. Eddy's
own statements do other than place itself under the same angelic charge
by its title, thereby insuring that its presentation will be true to
Mrs. Eddy's vision and song?
Thus Mrs. Eddy has locked the interpretation of Christ and Christmas
with the golden key of the spiritual idea which hears only in tones of
the musical cadence of angelic 'overtures,' and so speaks to human heads
and hearts. . . . " (p. vii)
