The Lectures

with contributions from Franklin Blake, Charles Austin, R. B. Stone

On Sunday, September 11, Mr. Edward A. Kimball delivered a lecture at the theatre in Oneonta, on the subject, Christian Science. Mr. Kimball was introduced by Mr. Franklin Blake, First Reader of First Church of Christ, Scientist, of Oneonta, whose remarks were in part as follows: —

When asked the other day why I was a Christian Scientist, I replied that it was because I could not help being one. Like many of you, I was for several years an earnest worker in another church, but since I first heard of Christian Science it has had for me an irresistible attraction. I have found it a demonstrable, provable, every-day, working religion, — what I had seached for during many years, and you will find that to be the experience of every Christian Scientist.

We are very grateful for all the good and for all the help that has come to us through the other churches, but Christian Science has unfolded to us such a larger sense of God, such a deeper and fuller understanding of the Bible, such a truer sense of man and of our relation to each other, that we are impelled to follow its teachings so far as we can understand them.
