Science has healed many sick people
and has brought about the regenera-
tiOn OF many who were the victims or
sin. Among it's membership are those
who have been healed Of intemper-
ance, of so-callod chronic and organic
diseases, as we'll as Of maladies that
were acute or functional IL has
healed others Of sorrow fear, unhap-
piness and similar diseased mental
conditions that often cause moro sut-
fering and distress than physical dis
orders.
"In every case OF Christian Science
healing, whether the disease was
chronic or acute, physical or mental,
the cure was brought about without
the use of hypnotism, mental sugges-
tion, drugs or any material means. and
entirely through the application Of the
spiritual and metaphysical teachings
of Christian Science.
The healing OF the sick, however,
Is not the primary purpose Of Chris
tian Science. According TO the teach
ngs OF this science all sickness and
disease result from error and false
belief, which are summarized as sin,
and when the error of belief Is de-
stroyed by the truth which Christian
Science imparts, the disease disap-
pears. Christian Science, therefore.
teaches that the cause Of all disease
and sin is mental, and not physical,
and that both sin and disease may be
cured by one and the same metaphys-
ical process, namely, by the substitu-
tion of spiritual truth in place of error
and false belief in the human con-
sclousness.
1t is recorded in the eighth chapter
of the gospel of John that upon one
occasion Jesus turned to a group of
his followers, who were standing near,
and said to them, 'Yc shall know the
truth and the truth shall make you
free In all the Bible there Is no
statement of greater Importance to
mankind than this utterance Of the
Master. 1t presCribcs the remedy for
every human ill., knowledge Of a
thing must come through the mental
and not through the physical, hence,
according to the words OF Jesus man
kind will be delivered from sin, dis
ease and death not by dOctorlns the
physical, but by filling the mental
with truth.
Christian Science shows that it is
the effect produced by truth operat-
ing in the human mentality, destroy
ing superstition, false and vicious be-
liefs that must and will some day
emancipate mankind from bondage to
sin, disease and death.
Ultimate Truth.
There must be ultimate truth
somewhere, and when 1t is appre-
hended by the human mind 1t will
emancipate those who apprehend 1t
from bondage to evil. Christian Sci
ence asserts that ultimate truth con-
cerning God and man and their rela-
tionship is revealed by the scriptures,
and may be gained by every person
when the scriptures are rightly in
terpreted.
Mrs. Eddy.
Some day all mankind will recog-
nize the immeasurable service that
Mrs. Eddy has rendered to humanity
by her discovery of Christian Science
and the establishment of the Christian
Science movement. Through her
teaching she has elevated religious
understandings from a theoretical to a
practical basis She has taught the
world that it is the mission Of religion
to heal people Of sickness, sorrow, un-
happiness and fear, as well as to de-
stroy sin, and has so clearly defined
the process by means of which these
results may be accomplished as to
make 1t possible for every one to prove
1t for himself and thereby to heal him
self and others. Christian Science is
applied Christianity just as truly as
engineering is applied mathematics.
There is no mystery about it, and when
