Son of Buddhist Priest Rejects Place in Father's Footsteps; Embraces Christianity Masanao Tanimoto, son of a Buddhist priest in Japan, until he was 23 years old, was in line to follow in his father’s footsteps as a Buddhist priest. He had memorized much of the Buddhist Bible, "The Okyo," and in high school he was known as “Osho San,” a Buddhist name for priest. At age 23 he was invited by a school friend to hear a Japanese Christian evangelist. Moved by the A.B. from Pasadena College In 1958, majoring in religion. Masanao was the third son in the family by whom the fulfillment of entering the Buddhist priesthood was forfeited. His oldest brother, first in line, drowned at the age of 29. The second son chose rather to go into business. This past summer Masanao’s younger brother, the last son in the family, also drowned. Now the priesthood will pass through Masanao’s only sister to the man she will marry.

Today Masanao, age 32, is a first-year student at Fuller Theological Seminary Studying for the B.D. degree in preparation for serving as a pastor in the Christian ministry. He received his face of my life, a disquiet began to set in. "It was born both of reflection and experience. I saw that the fruit of the humanistic age of enlightenment was an age of materialism. Man's increasing belief in himself as God did not seem to be making him more Godlike. He was becoming more clever. But he had less and less of the sober, uplifting humility of one who has stood in the presence of God. Contemporary history seemed to indicate how dangerously near the savage state man may be even while he is most advanced technologically and materially." Ultimately Dr. Lin arrived at the conviction that "humanity is not, and never has been, sufficient unto itself," and that "mankind cannot survive without religion." Learns About Jesus The next question he faced was: "Is there a satisfying religion for the modern, educated man?" He first examined the great oriental religions, and found their answers inadequate. Then he turned to a study of "the awake-inspiring simplicity and beauty of the teachings of Jesus." "I found that no one ever spoke like Jesus. He spoke of God the Father as one who knew him and was identified with him in fullness of knowledge and its astounding (to that God, as Jesus revealed) is so different from what had thought him to be. They totally new order of love and passion in Jesus' prayer free cross." Father forgive them they knew not what they do. "I saw why men have tuned Jesus, not merely in respect in adoration. In him, the mind of love and gentleness and passion becomes incarnate. UCLA Episcopal Chaplain Name The Rev. C.

Atonement Is CS Topic for Sunday Sermon The lesson-sermon on "Doctrine of Atonement" to be heard in all Christian Science churches Sunday, examines the popular theology regarding Jesus' mission as an example for mortals and finds its import to be the expression of God’s love for man. As keynoted in the opening selection from the Bible, Jesus said to his questioners, "The works that I do in my Father’s name, they bear witness of me...I and my Father are one...If I do not the works my Father, believe me not. But if I do,...believe the works: that ye may know, and believe, that the Father is in me, and I in him." That mortals need Jesus’ examample to show them their at-onement with God in the triumph of Mind over sin, disease, and death, is developed in the sermon. In "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" Mary Baker Eddy states, "In divine Science, God and the real man are inseparable as divine Principle and idea..." God is the Principle of man, and man is the idea of God" (p. 476). The golden text is from Mark, "The Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many."
