| 1 | The Bible contains the recipe for all healing. "The |
| | leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations." |
| 3 | Sin and sickness are both healed by the same | The leaves
of healing |
| | Principle. The tree is typical of man's divine |
| | Principle, which is equal to every emergency, offering |
| 6 | full salvation from sin, sickness, and death. Sin will |
| | submit to Christian Science when, in place of modes and |
| | forms, the power of God is understood and demonstrated |
| 9 | in the healing of mortals, both mind and body. "Per- |
| | fect Love casteth out fear." |
| | The Science of being unveils the errors of sense, and |
| 12 | spiritual perception, aided by Science, reaches Truth. |
| | Then error disappears. Sin and sickness will | Sickness
will abate |
| | abate and seem less real as we approach the |
| 15 | scientific period, in which mortal sense is subdued and |
| | all that is unlike the true likeness disappears. The moral |
| | man has no fear that he will commit a murder, and he |
| 18 | should be as fearless on the question of disease. |
| | Resist evil--error of every sort--and it will flee from |
| | you. Error is opposed to Life. We can, and ultimately |
| 21 | shall, so rise as to avail ourselves in every direc- | Resist to
the end |
| | tion of the supremacy of Truth over error, Life |
| | over death, and good over evil, and this growth will go |
| 24 | on until we arrive at the fulness of God's idea, and no |
| | more fear that we shall be sick and die. Inharmony of |
| | any kind involves weakness and suffering,--a loss of |
| 27 | control over the body. |
| | [[[The depraved appetite for alcoholic drinks, tobacco, |
| | tea, coffee, opium, is destroyed only by Mind's mastery |
| 30 | of the body. This normal control is gained | Morbid
cravings |
| | through divine strength and understanding. |
| | There is no enjoyment in getting drunk, in becoming a |
| 1 | fool or an object of loathing; but there is a very sharp |
| | remembrance of it, a suffering inconceivably terrible to |
| 3 | man's self-respect. Puffing the obnoxious fumes of to- |
| | bacco, or chewing a leaf naturally attractive to no crea- |
| | ture except a loathsome worm, is at least disgusting.]]] |
| 6 | Man's enslavement to the most relentless masters-- |
| | passion, selfishness, envy, hatred, and revenge--is con- |
| | quered only by a mighty struggle. Every | Universal
panacea |
| 9 | hour of delay makes the struggle more severe. |
| | If man is not victorious over the passions, they crush |
| | out happiness, health, and manhood. Here Christian |
| 12 | Science is the sovereign panacea, giving strength to the |
| | weakness of mortal mind,--strength from the immortal |
| | and omnipotent Mind,--and lifting humanity above |
| 15 | itself into purer desires, even into spiritual power and |
| | good-will to man. |
| | Let the slave of wrong desire learn the lessons of Chris- |
| 18 | tian Science, and he will get the better of that desire, |
| | and ascend a degree in the scale of health, happiness, |
| | and existence. |
| 21 | If delusion says, "I have lost my memory," contra- |
| | dict it. No faculty of Mind is lost. In Science, all |
| | being is eternal, spiritual, perfect, harmoni- | Immortal
memory |
| 24 | ous in every action. Let the perfect model be |
| | present in your thoughts instead of its demoralized op- |
| | posite. This spiritualization of thought lets in the light, |
| 27 | and brings the divine Mind, Life not death, into your |
| | consciousness. |
| | There are many species of insanity. All sin is insan- |
| 30 | ity in different degrees. Sin is spared from | Sin a form
of insanity |
| | this classification, only because its method of |
| | madness is in consonance with common mortal belief. |
