| 1 | Then comes the question, how do drugs, hygiene, and |
| | animal magnetism heal? It may be affirmed that they |
| 3 | do not heal, but only relieve suffering tempo- | True healing
transcendent |
| | rarily, exchanging one disease for another. |
| | We classify disease as error, which nothing but Truth or |
| 6 | Mind can heal, and this Mind must be divine, not human. |
| | Mind transcends all other power, and will ultimately su- |
| | persede all other means in healing. In order to heal by |
| 9 | Science, you must not be ignorant of the moral and spir- |
| | itual demands of Science nor disobey them. Moral igno- |
| | rance or sin affects your demonstration, and hinders its |
| 12 | approach to the standard in Christian Science. |
| | After the author's sacred discovery, she affixed the |
| | name "Science" to Christianity, the name "error" to |
| 15 | corporeal sense, and the name "substance" to | Terms
adopted by
the author |
| | Mind. Science has called the world to battle |
| | over this issue and its demonstration, which |
| 18 | heals the sick, destroys error, and reveals the universal |
| | harmony. To those natural Christian Scientists, the an- |
| | cient worthies, and to Christ Jesus, God certainly revealed |
| 21 | the spirit of Christian Science, if not the absolute letter. |
| | Because the Science of Mind seems to bring into dis- |
| | honor the ordinary scientific schools, which wrestle with |
| 24 | material observations alone, this Science has | Science
the way |
| | met with opposition; but if any system honors |
| | God, it ought to receive aid, not opposition, from all think- |
| 27 | ing persons. And Christian Science does honor God as |
| | no other theory honors Him, and it does this in the way |
| | of His appointing, by doing many wonderful works |
| 30 | through the divine name and nature. [[[One must fulfil |
| | one's mission without timidity or dissimulation, for to be |
| | well done, the work must be done unselfishly. Christianity |
| 1 | will never be based on a divine Principle and so found to |
| | be unerring, until its absolute Science is reached. When |
| 3 | this is accomplished, neither pride, prejudice, bigotry, |
| | nor envy can wash away its foundation, for it is built upon |
| | the rock, Christ.]]] |
| 6 | Question.--Does Christian Science, or metaphysical |
| | healing, include medication, material hygiene, mesmer- |
| | ism, hypnotism, theosophy, or spiritualism? |
| 9 | Answer.--Not one of them is included in it. In di- |
| | vine Science, the supposed laws of matter yield to the |
| | law of Mind. What are termed natural | Mindless
methods |
| 12 | science and material laws are the objective |
| | states of mortal mind. The physical universe expresses |
| | the conscious and unconscious thoughts of mortals. |
| 15 | Physical force and mortal mind are one. Drugs and |
| | hygiene oppose the supremacy of the divine Mind. |
| | Drugs and inert matter are unconscious, mindless. Cer- |
| 18 | tain results, supposed to proceed from drugs, are really |
| | caused by the faith in them which the false human con- |
| | sciousness is educated to feel. |
| 21 | Mesmerism is mortal, material illusion. Animal mag- |
| | netism is the voluntary or involuntary action of error |
| | in all its forms; it is the human antipode | Animal
magnetism error |
| 24 | of divine Science. Science must triumph |
| | over material sense, and Truth over error, thus putting |
| | an end to the hypotheses involved in all false theories |
| 27 | and practices. |
| | Question.--Is materiality the concomitant of spirit- |
| | uality, and is material sense a necessary preliminary to |
| 30 | the understanding and expression of Spirit? |
