A Correction

Mary Baker Eddy

This article was later republished in The First Church of Christ, Scientist, and Miscellany: My. 217:16-218:20

In the last Sentinel was the following question: "If all matter is unreal, why do we deny the existence of disease in the material body and not the body itself?"

We deny first the existence of disease, because we can meet this negation more readily than we can negative all that the body affirms. It is written in "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures:" "There are degrees in the material or human belief, and a harmonious belief is one step out of error; a belief of health is an improvement on a belief of sickness."
