the healing. To know the absolute
divine truth about man and the moth
ingness of mortal mind. brings the
truth to hear upon the case no matter
whether the person is near by or far
away. Christian Science healing re-
suits from an awakened consciousness
produced by the Christ Mind and
neither time, distance, matter nor
evil enter into it nor can they inter-
fere with it. Christian Science heals
through the operation of divine law,
the law whose Principle is infinite
Spirit, Life and Love. and anyone can
heal through Christian Science who
will apply this law of God exactly and
honestly.
Respecting this Mrs. Eddy has said:
To-day the healing power of Truth
is widely demonstrated as an imma-
nent eternal Science, instead of a
ing is the coming anew of the gospel
of on earth peace, goodwill toward
men, This coming, as was promised
by the Master, is for its establishment
as a permanent dispensation among
men; but the mission of Christian
Science now, as in the time of its
earlier demonstration, is not primarily
then, signs and wonders are wrought
in the metaphysical healing of physi-
cal disease; but these signs are only
to demonstrate it's divine origin-ro
attest the reality of the higher mission
of the Christ power to take away the
sins of the world (Science and
Health, p. 1900.
Christian Science Treatment
A Christian Science treatment, or
the scientific application of divine
Principle, consists fundamentally of
clear knowing of the nature of God
and the real man, and the consequent
recognition of the unreality of matter
and evil. 1t involves an analysis of
that which is to be healed, a spiritual
discernment of the mental causes of
the trouble, and a correct application
of the antidoting divine Truth which
will correct and remove these causes.
Although this is a mental process, it
is not a mere repetition of words but
rather the reflection of divine Love
through spiritual consciousness. 1t
brings about not merely a physical
change but improves the patient NOR
ally, mentally and spiritually. 1t
brings a man nearer to God and
changes his standpoint from a mate
rial to a spiritual basis. 1t uplifts his
thought, gives him power over evil and
improves his whole being in the de-
gree that he can grasp its truth.
Christian Scientists know that with
God all things are possible" and that
Christian Science can accomplish all
the wonders of infinite Mind. Hence
they are striving day by day to have
in them more of the Mind that was in
Christ, that they may demonstrate this
healing power more and more effect
ually There are deeply grateful to-
day for the good that has already
come to them and the good they have
been able to do to others, especially
that they have learned to know the
unreality of evil and have thus begun
to defend themselves against it's in
fiuence or control, against every temp
tation and assault of evil mind, or
animal magnetism. They are grateful
to know that there is a perfect and
compassionate God who will guide
them and sustain them, "a very pres
ent help in trouble"
Each of us can begin to-day to i'm
prove our thought and life. We are
thinking something all of the time
and we can begin to think more of
what is good and true, bearing IN
mind the supremacy of good and thus
increasing its presence in our con-
sciousness. We can begin to think
more about life than death, more
about harmony than discord, more
