Reading of Seventh Chapter
of Matthew Recommended
To Careful Attention
Of Critics
FOUNDED ON SCRIPTURES
For With What Judgement We Judge
We Shall Be Judged For
Thought
For with what judgment We judge
We shall be judged. "

For with what judgment We Judge,
We shall be judged.
EDITOR BANNER Bel linz, Michigan:
Dear Sir-In connection with lect-
ure recently delivered in your city
against Christian Science, desire to
commend to the careful attention of the
speaker and his hearers the seventh
chapter of Matthew. 1t certainly will
give food for thought.
Some one has said that if every one
would stop SHINING in thought, word and
deed for one day the millennium would
be here. 1t is very certain that if all
persons who felt it necessary to criti-
else the relig ious beliefs of others woul d
investigate the subject carefully before
publicly attacking them there would be
fewer foolish and unkind sermons
preached.
The speaker claimed to have read
Science and Health, and quoted freely
from it during the lecture. This, how
ever, was no proof of an understanding
of the subject One might read the
words of book on mathematics from
cover to cover, and yet be unable to
demonstrate single problem.
An illustration of this came to nv
observation some years ago A very
intelligent gentleman and a good reader,
had his opposition to what he believed
Christian Science to be, and finding an
The absurdity of the assertion that
Christian Science repudiates the teach
ings of Jesus must be appare mt to
every sincere reader. Jesus constantly
reminded the people that it is 1.-THE
spirit quickeneth. The flesh profiteth
nothing. He said, II can of mine
own self do nothing, The
Father that worketh in me. he doeth
the works." This is the exact teach
ing of Christian Science.
The charge that Christian Science is
after the Almighty dollar" is to say
the least in poor taste from one who
stipulated in advance for a generous
remuneration for doing part of the
work his master demanded of his fol-
lowers.

Does he think that others who devote
their whole time to preaching the gos-
pei, healing the sick and casting out
devils (evil thoughts) should have less
privileges than one who is doing but a
portion of the work?
The speaker stated, "All the works
which Christian Scientists claimed to do
he would do any Monday morning. Z"
We are certainly glad to hear this as
sertion and if it proves true the city of
Bedding is to be congratulated in hav-
ing such a helper for the sick and suf-
fering. Certainly, his church will be
filled if he keeps his promise.
What Christian science is doing can
be found out by any honest inquirer in
all the large centers of community. 1t
is related that John the Baptist sent to
Jesus to make sure that he was the
Christ. The reply was, Ego shew John
again these things which we do hear and
see. And at the close of his mission
he said: Behold, l am with you al
way, even to the end of the world.
1t is quite true that there have been
occasional instances of healing by
prayer all down the ages, but no system
of healing since the third century, until
the advent of Christian Science has
healed the sick through an understood
principle. For that reason the healing
of one disease by Christian Science is
no different than another when the fear
of the patient is removed. Christian
Science claims no monopoly of the heal
ing work. The field IS open to all who
will apply the rules of divine principle
(God.)
innate friend receiving treatment, ridi
culed him severely, but learning that
he had been benefited. the gentlemen
concluded to investigate for himself.
He secured copy of Science and
Health" and read il, To criticIse every
point possible. On returning il he said,
II have read the book, and, just as |
thought, there is no sense in it. The
person replied, "why. Mr.! -, | have
always understood that you were care
full reader and a deep thinker. Is it
possible that so many people of all
classes have discovered in that book
what has escaped you. Now go back
and read the book" Although a skep
tic and irritated at the rebuke, he was
honest in his search, and he not only
had his health restored but gained a
clear understanding of Christian Sci
ence.
The speaker said that Christian
Science was foe to christianity. Is
it foe that reforms drunkards, regen-
crates the sinner, heals the sick and
uplifts the heartbroken and sorrowing?
We are told that Christian Science is
contrary TO the Bible. Christian Sci
ence is founded on the scriptures and
upon nothing else. When understood,
it conforms with the spiritual teaching
of the Bible from Genesis TO Revela-
ton.
Jesus proved his understanding of
the prophecies by doing the works which
they foretold. He said, Il came not to

THEY ARE ON THEIR WAY THIS EVENING
Ordeman VS.. Zbyszko Bout
Means Much To Heavies

One day Frank Gotch. undisputedly
the greatest wrestler of modern times,
says he has abandoned the mat FOR
good. The next day he says he may
come back. Day after that the newly
acquired Mrs. Gotch issues a state
ment that Frank dear" shall struggle
no more VS.. burly Poles, terrible us
SLAMS and host of more or less COM
petent Burgarians.
Thus do we have a champion re-
tired and a flock OF heavy weights
who would either strive for his title
or inherit il by beating all the burlies
in sight. The list of eligibles
include some mighty good men.
Hackenschmidt, Mahmout, Zbyszko
and Henry Ordeman form a quartet Of
mighty good men, with Charley Cutler
and Doc Roller, the hardest worker
who ever got on the mat, bringing up
the rear
Because OF the state OF the heavy
weight championship, the coming
bout in Detroit between Zbyszko and
Ordeman Is of more than ordinary i'm
portance. Being in the leading quar-
tet of men who are candidates for the
honor of meeting Gotch or of holding
the title II he persists in remaining
out Of the game, the bout here will be
no tame affair
The Detroit times., 1911-01-16

The men are coming to Detroit I'M
der the auspices of the Wolverine Ath,
letic club and the struggle will take
place Monday evening. Jan. %, at
Light Guard armory. The first show
held by the Wolverine club had Orde-
man and Fenby for the principal con-
testants. Fenby lasted only a few
minutes before the Minneapolis man.
There is one thing about Ordeman,
he never stalls. Had he done so
against Fenby the bout would have
been more spectacular. but Ordeman
works on the principal that he is out
there to win the match and sets about
doing it with the least possible de-
lay.
Big Zbyszko has been meeting all
the heavyweights except Ordeman,
Hackenschmidt and Mahmout and has
displayed greater skill than he ever
did. He is Just as heavy and in addi
ton to that has picked up lot OF the
| fine points about the graphing game

ed this country.
| Both Ordeman and Zbyszko have
posted forfeits for their appearance
here and the money is to remain up
until after the bout, thus insuring pat
