The prediction is hard: it is not likely any sort of retaliation/retribution for misunderstood words (or court cases) because the Directors work at proving themselves worthy: none can do better (none can do war with them - REV) ... but there is a danger: as war has ceased in our time, decreased in the decades since 'their' era, they are turning their thoughts to releasing prisoners from their devices/hatreds/damnations ... and that is a bigger challenge, because society focuses on the individual (when war is not looming) and expects dramatic proofs of healing ... again, I do not discern any retaliation, but a foolishness, perhap caught in a prison riot - not to make that a reality, but Mrs. Eddy has told the Directors, You may think the going is great when it seems glamorous, but you should remember you are safest when you most feel your need for God's guidance, and, she has also told them, Rush not forth to struggle with midnight and tempest.
That a Director, or any member of The Church, should die or seem
to pass-on, is a sad human event: it should enwisen one to the
rigors of this Science, turn one away from the rigors of mortis,
and enliven the individual prospect for [the knowledge of] the
kingdom of heaven on Earth. The
triple conjunction of the mortal, the human, and the divine,
is one more point of disagreement among Christian Scientists,
many of whom would devote their energies to seeing the perfect
man expressed, here, and so reform their concept of, here, but
having thus presumed their own human presence and ultimate
necessity of a passing-death-experience to work-through - an
impossible basis for Scientific proof: the mortal (passing) must
be put-off entirely, and it must be detected, to be so put-off
that death does not touch one; and men must be immortal,
unpassing, here. I wish the Directors, God-Speed in the work they
Nevertheless, I Am alive for ever more: I Am the I AM that I am:
which is why, they, must work their way through: to remain with
me, Mr. Raymond Kenneth Petry, POPE I.
[We must note here in closing that the plausible actual
would become speculative if we merely imagine what persons
may have done, said, meant ... the importance is in the
demonstration of the Christ Science: not to rediscover
that which is today abundant, but discern and live it]
