SCIENCE TALK
BY BOSTON MAN
GIVEN SUNDAY
William F. Gross, C. S. B.,
Speaks Under Auspices of
Third Church.
MRS. BALLARD IN CHARGE

A lecture on Christian Science was
given at the Murat Thearer yesterday
afternoon by william f. Gross C, s. b.,
Boston, under the auspices of Thru
Church Of Christ. Scientist Mr.. cross
was introduced by Mrs. Wilmuth II.
Ballard.
The lecture follows:
No teaching of modern times has in
spired greater activity In the things
which really benefit humanity than has
Christian Science. Nothing has contrib
uted more to the universal good than
has that Chrlstianly scientific method OF
healing, which furnishes conclusive evil
dence that religion and medicine are
from the same source and cannot be sep
arated, either in theory or practice.
Christian Science has encountered Oppo-
stion because for centuries II has been
held that religion and medicine have
little In common. This is true Of medl-
c ne and religion as generally defined
and practiced. but no human theory or
belief can change the eternal fact that
the most effectual healing system ever
brought to human recognition and Chris
ti1n!ty as taught and demonstrated by
its Founder, Jesus Of Nazareth. are one
and identical
The healing of sickness by spiritual
means alone continued throughout the
trst three centuries OF the Christian era.
so long as 1t was considered an essen
dial part Of religious teaching and prac-
uce and not merely incidental thereto,
and intended only for a short period OF
time or mited number OF persons. the
Christ-mcthOd Of healing was the only
one recognized In the Christian Church.
In this age Christian Science is dem
onstrating that spiritual understanding
improves the health as we'll as the morals
OF men. When the teachings Of Jesus are
correctly interpreted and rightly applied,
Il Is understood that the remedy for
sin is the only etfectual remedy for sick
ness.
THE BASIS or
CHRISTIANITY
The basis VI Christianity IS a right ap-
prehensiOn Of God and mans relation to
his creator aud his fellow men. Accord
ing TO the teachings Of Jesus and the
revelations of Science, man is absolutely
dependent on God and inseparabie from
Him. The erroneous belief that man can
be separated from God that he can
think and act independently OF his Gre
