In the first painting, that of a night sky, we see the clouds parted and a star appearing in full brightness that gives the scene light.  The title for the painting is: Star of Bethlehem.  This opening scene, then, takes us to the next painting, titled "Christ Healing" where we see a person being raised in a coffin.  This is humanity in its present state.  Humanity is literally dead in almost every vital aspect of living, it needs to be raised out of the coffin that the oligarchy has placed it in.

The next scene is part of the same painting.  Its shows two individuals observing the wonder of Christ healing.  Except, this wonder is no wonder to the scientific consciousness.  To it, it represents the lawful manifest of the power of the human consciousness founded on absolute Truth.  The final painting, "Seeking and Finding," projects the sweet and calm search for more understanding of the underlying principles of being, for a deeper awareness of the nature of Truth or God.  The scene that is shown is overshadowed by the light of the star, the brightness of infinite Mind reflected in the human intellect.  In real terms the star is a sun.  Man is clothed with the sun!  this is what the clock in the background of the painting points out in metaphor.  Its hands are set at five after twelve, pointing to Revelation 12 verse 5 where we find John's vision of the woman clothed with the sun and her destiny.

What all of this implies in terms of every day human living is not hard to recognize.  It implies the need for a renewal of individual responsibility for life, on a broad scale and with great sensitivity.

Should not those individuals who destroy hospitals and cut the nation's social structures to such levels where they are insufficient to meet the minimum requirements for human living, be charged with murder?  Should not those who set up the stage for the mass destruction of human beings through the ban of the DDT pesticides and the CFC refrigerants be changed with murder also?  Mankind should rouse itself to outlaw murder by public policy and public manipulation, as surely as it has outlawed murder committed by weapons or other violent means.  Public policies that lead to the killing of people should be regarded as equal to physical weapons.  Whoever murders, no matter by what means, should be regarded as a murderer, and murder should be outlawed as a most despicable act.

Further, the public communication media should be demonopolized and publicly scrutinized for its involvement in promoting policies and idealisms that murder human beings.  Love for the good and beautiful in human nature demands that a society does not allow its consciousness to be manipulated by external agencies, and be drawn into the participation in murderous schemes.

The legality of the oligarchy, itself, needs to be outlawed, which the dictionary defines as the rule of a few over many.  The Declaration of Independence of the Unites States of America presents the proposition that all men are created equally.  This proposition needs to be translated into public policy in such a manner as to prohibit oligarchism.  "The rule of a few over many" is fundamentally unconstitutional.  Instead of ruling and demanding one-another, the good and the beautiful that is a natural spiritual component of mankind inspiring all right action through the power of love, needs to be enthroned and be enabled to become the ruling force in our life.

In the dimension of Mary Baker Eddy's pedagogical structure, the building structure for the Key of David, a new connection between the identifiers for the columns comes to light as outlined in Appendix 1. The illustration, which is extensively described in Volume 3, shows all the aspects of the entire structure converging at the center. That converging process brings the first and last columns into conjunction whereby they amplify each other. Thus the river of the first column, defined as "the good and the beautiful and their immortality," becomes illumined with the light of the golden sunset of the last column defined under, "westward," as the "Golden Shore of Love and the Peaceful Sea of Harmony."
