Some Facts Regarding Christian Science

William P. McKenzie

Cambridge (Mass.) Tribune

Editor Cambridge Tribune:—A recent editorial requesting a reply to some of its questions, affords an opportunity for presenting some facts which will enable candid people to separate things which differ, but may be confused through misinformation.

1. The Christian Science movement represents a widespread awakening to the practical import of Christ's teachings. It has been gaining momentum for over thirty years, and earnest Christian people of all creeds have found in it what their hearts hoped for, namely, Christianity which has "demonstration and power."

2. The laborers in the movement remain, as a rule, in one place, and becoming known to their fellow-citizens, win respect and confidence. Their advertisement is the work they do; no other advertising is considered legitimate. The lecturers, teachers, practitioners, readers in churches, and other workers in this movement are working for the emancipation of men from both sin and sickness; a more widespread and advantageous reform than was the abolition of the slavery movement in its day.
