With the positiveness observable in all Mrs. Eddy's writings, and of course with no attempt at proofs, we read, "The second appearing of Jesus is unquestionably the spiritual advent of the advancing idea of God in Christian Science" (R. & I., pp. 95, 96).
The reader will remember that according to Mrs. Eddy, Jesus "disappeared" and ceased to exist at His ascension, but Scripture plainly tells us, "This same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen Him go into heaven" (Acts 1:1111Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven. (Acts 1:11)).
How explicit this statement! There is no need of explanation. It explains itself.
