Denver (Col.) Post

Christian Science does not admit that God is the author of disease. God is omnipotent, infinite, omniscient, omnipresent; a God of love, who gives only good to His children. Disease, sin, all the myriad forms of evil and suffering are not derived from God, and therefore have not inherent eternal existence. To a sense spiritually elevated they are not real. To the material senses they appear real until a better understanding of the nature of God and His universe is gained. In the same chapter in which he saw a new heaven and a new earth, John also saw the end of the pretended reality of material concepts. He heard a voice saying,—

"And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away."

Christian Science has been before the public only a comparatively short time. Statistics covering a long period of years, or many thousand cases, are not necessary to prove the correctness of Christian Science. Christian Scientists, thousands of them all over the world, know, as did the blind man, that they have been healed. They know that they are happier, clearer mentally, better physically and morally, and above all, have gained clearer views of God and His universe, and thus are regenerated spiritually. With these results evident before them, they have no desire to return to former modes of thought.
