II such there be? suppose the Chris
.tlan Science doctrine has these very
signs following them that believe"
it? What will the people of Padu-

Iciples. when they entered any city
and offered this healing TO the peo-
pie and they received them not. to
go your ways out into the streets
OF the same. and say.
Even the dust OF your city which
.cieaveth on US. we do wipe OF
against you; notwithstanding be ye
sure Of this, that the kingdom of God
has come nigh unto you.
But | say unto you. that Il shall
be more tolerable in that day for
Sodom. than for that city" Luke 10:
1916. Let the people read the
Scripture / have quoted. and say
what they will do with Christian
Science. / know that there are those
who say that Christian Science does
not heal. or that II heals only func-
tional and nervous disorders. but
there are thousands OF competent
Witnesses. as competent as any that
testified TO Jesus healing, who are
telling the people, from their own
personal experience OF the healing.

every form OF disease known TO the
medical profession. Suppose these
people are telling the truth? In the
light OF the Masters denuneiation OF
those who reject His healing Gospel.
what OF the ministers ana others
who are everywhere ridiculing and
deriding those who stand for the
healing power OF Jesus word today
az OF old? Who denied Jesus heal
ing in Palestine. who said He healed
by the power Of Beelzebub. who set
the mob on Him and finally crucihed
Him? The Scrlbes and Pharlsees.
the ministers and orthodox church
people OF that day. The crime is so
horrible that we fain would think Il
could only have been committed by
the worst and most degraded ele-

Scribes and Pharisees were the high
ly educated, cultured. and most re-
spectacle people. who stood for law
and order. who upheld society. who

morality and supported the church.
In all these respects they were not a
whit inferior to the same class OF
people today. They were devout
religionists and believed that in
Jesus and rejecting and
deriding His healing truth. they
were serving the best Interests of the
people and the Church and were do
ing what their God wanted them to
do. Is history repeating itself to-
day?
Christian Science teaches no such
silly doctrine as that sickness and
pain can be destroyed by simply
denying It or thinking It Is unreal
II teaches the unreality Of these
things I'm the same sense exactly

all ages have understood the real"
and the unreal" II teaches that
sickness, pain. etc, belong and are
confined 20 the sense world, the
world OF carnai or fleshly and ma
