coRREcTs STATEMENT
ON CHURCH BELIEF
The following has been submitted:

The following has been submitted:
Editor, The Richmond Palladium,
Dear Sir: A statement by an evan
gelist regarding Christian Science. as
reported in a recent issue. proves
that he is not properly qualified to
present Christian Science teaching.
This statement is: Mrs. Baker Eddy
would have some people believe that
they are not sinners, but they just
think they are" and the statement
presents the very opposite of Chris
tian Science. s..---t
Christian Science teaches, as does
the Bible, that God did not create
sin, and it is, therefore, in an absolute
sense, unreal. The belief In the real
ity of sin and the love of sin in human
consciousness gives sin all the power
1t has, and the operation of Gods law
destroys this seeming reality. The
third religious tenet of Christian
Sciezce reads: 1--WE acknowledge
Gods forgiveness of sin in the destruc-
ton of sin and the spiritual under
standing that casts out evil as un-
real But the belief in sin is punished
SO long as the belief lasts"
Yours very truly,
