Consistency of Christian Science

Alfred Farlow

Boston Times

It is conceded by all Christendom that Jesus the Christ was more accurate in his knowledge of God, the Creator, than any other earthly personage. Indeed, what he taught is accepted as absolute truth, not only by Christian Scientists by all other Christian denominations.

After carefully examining the objections which have been raised against Christian Science, we find that they bear directly upon the fact that Christian Science adheres to its Principle, and follows the admonition of St. Paul, "Yea, let God be true, but every man a liar."

In her teaching of Christian Science Mrs. Eddy has undertaken that which has never been attempted perhaps by other theologians. She has adopted a spiritual premise from which she has deduced a complete spiritual Science. If we endorse her premise—the Scriptural declaration, "God is Spirit"—and strictly adhere to it in all our reasoning, we are compelled to give full endorsement to all that is contained in her book, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures."
