   1  mighty works "because of their unbelief" in Truth. Any
     human error is its own enemy, and works against itself;
   3  it does nothing in the right direction and much

     in the wrong. If so-called mind is cherishing
     evil passions and malicious purposes, it is not a healer,
   6  but it engenders disease and death.
         If faith in the truth of being, which you impart men-
     tally while destroying error, causes chemicalization (as
   9  when an alkali is destroying an acid), it is be-

    Effect of
    opposites

     cause the truth of being must transform the
     error to the end of producing a higher manifestation.
  12  This fermentation should not aggravate the disease, but
     should be as painless to man as to a fluid, since matter
     has no sensation and mortal mind only feels and sees
  15  materially.
         [[[What I term chemicalization is the upheaval produced
     when immortal Truth is destroying erroneous mortal be-
  18  lief. Mental chemicalization brings sin and sickness to
     the surface, forcing impurities to pass away, as is the case
     with a fermenting fluid.]]]
  21      The only effect produced by medicine is dependent upon
     mental action. If the mind were parted from the body,
     could you produce any effect upon the brain

    and brain

  24  or body by applying the drug to either? Would
     the drug remove paralysis, affect organization, or restore
     will and action to cerebrum and cerebellum?
  27      Until the advancing age admits the efficacy and suprem-
     acy of Mind, it is better for Christian Scientists to leave
     surgery and the adjustment of broken bones

    Skilful
    surgery

  30  and dislocations to the fingers of a surgeon,
     while the mental healer confines himself chiefly to mental
     reconstruction and to the prevention of inflammation.
