CHRISTIAN SCIENCE TREATMENT
A Christian Science treatment, or the sci
fundamentally of clear knowing of the ma
ture of God and the real man, and the con
sequent recognition OF the unrea!ity Jof mat
ter and evil. 1t involves an analysis of that
which is to be healed spiritual dscernmeni
of the mental causes of the trouble, and
correct application of the antidoting divine
Truth which will correct and remove these
causes. Although this is a mental process
it is not a repetition of words but rath
er the reflection OF divine Love through spir
itual consciousness. 1t brings about not mere
morally, mentally and spiritually. 1t brings

point from material to a, spiritual basis

gree that he can grasp its truth. Christian
Scientists know that with God all things are

compish all the wonders of infinite Mind.
Hence they striving day by day to have in

more and more effectually. They are deeply
grateful today for the good that has already
come to them and the good they have been
able to do to others, especially that they have

and assault of evil mind, or animal magnetism.

] Each of us can begin today to improve
our thought and life We thinking some
thing all of the time and begin to
think more of what is good and true, bearing
in mind the supremacy OF good and thus in
creasing its presence in our consciousness. We
can begin to think more about life than death,

in God will grow until we begin to experience

LOVE FOR MRS. EDDY
The love and gratitude which Christian Sci
entists feel toward Mrs. Eddy is not to be
great good which has come into their lives
as the result of her teachings People are
grateful to who has helped them out of
serious, difficulty, supplied some great need or
more grateful would they naturally be to one
who has made it possible for them to be healed
of incurable disease, hopeless sorrow, the
bondage of degrading sin, of anger, lust,
hatred Jealousy, revenge, poverty, ignorance,
superstition and fear, and more than this, who
has healed them OF agnosticism and atheism by
revealing to them the naturalness, simplicity
and truth of the Bible teachings and the pos
sibility of their fulflment.
The whole world is indebted to her for her
Scientific and spiritual Interpretation of the
Bible especially the words and works of the
Master, and for her demonstration of the truth
of his teachings. In the face of the so-called
higher criticism and the doubt respecting the
correctness of much Scripture teaching and the
possibility of obeying Christ Jesus command,
Mrs. Eddy's proof that the Bible is true
stands out as the greatest most sihnifcant &C
Movement of this age, for hereby the truth
of Christianity and the rightness of its basis
is scientifically established.
Mrs. Eddy early learned that the Bible is
the word of God, the spiritual teacher of the
ages. She turned to it for light and leading
when human ways and means failed to give
health and hope. In its inspired pages she
found Christian Science, the spiritual fulfil
ment of Jesus teachings and practice and she
thus rediscovered the Science of Christianity.
The proof of the sincerity of her aspiration and
of the truth of her teaching is found in her
life and works and in the lives of those
who honestly study and daily strive TO praetice
Christian Science She did not leave fher
work here until it established to
main intact and inviolate.
With wisdom and foresgt she insured the
safety of the Christian Science organization
and the preservation of the puriety of her
teachings by establishing The Mother Church
ment and@by providing Manual for the gov
eminent of the church, and Board of Di-
rectors to administer its affairs;
To Christian Scientists Mrs. Eddy is liv-
ing example of the triumph of faith in God,
faith deep and vital because rooted in spiritual
experience She knew God Alright. She look
ed to divine intelligence and proved that God
and proved that God is Principle. She looked
to God for health and proved Him TO be Life.
She loved all mankind and proved that God is
Love. She gave all for the pearl of great
price" the knowledge of God, and offered it
to all the world.
Christian Science is the renaissance of
Christianity, the re-birth and re-establishnent
on a scientific demonstrate basis, of the
Christianity which Christ Jesus taught and
practiced. 1t is the fulflment of his mission
of bringing to the world salvation from sin,
sickness and death. Its modest achievements
of today prove the truth of its Principle and
rule and enable any sincere seeker to begin to
live. 1t is a clarion call to every aspir- |
ing heart, to awaken to the present privilege |
of freedom and spiritual authority over human !
ills, and to demonstrate that the day of human |
redemption is at hand
Mrs. Eddy writes:
"When will Jesus professed followers learn
to emulate him in all hisuways and to initiate
his mighty works? 1t is possible.-yea, it is the
duty and privilege of every child, man, and
follow in some degree the ex
ample of the Master by the demonstration of
Truth and Life, of health and holiness.
Christian claim to be his followers, but to
they follow him in the way that he command
ed? Hear these imperative commands: BE We
therefore perfect, your Father which is
in heaven is perfectl' Go We into all the
world, and preach the gospel to every crea-
ure! Heal the sick! (Science and Health,
D. 37).
