Whatever there may be in the contention as to whether or not healing the sinful and sick demonstrates the truth of Christian Science, this much is certain: the sinful and sick are healed by the application of this faith, and this fact is the only evidence to the practitioner that he really understands the Science, and is the only proof to him that his argument that God, Spirit, is the only real Life, substance, and intelligence, is true; while the claim that lesser powers can produce and maintain sin and sickness, is false.
One of the greatest mistakes that the critics of Christian Science make is "that the followers are impelled to throw away the experience of the ages and discredit their own senses.

The author of the Christian Science text-book takes no patients, does not consult on disease, nor read letters referring to these subjects.
We sometimes receive inquiries as to the standing of persons who advertise themselves in newspapers and magazines as Christian Science practitioners.
The religious propaganda which Jesus inaugurated and which has constituted so important a feature of Christian history, is earth's noblest enterprise, and it has been conducted, for the most part, by men and women who have shown a degree of heroism, self-sacrifice, and devotion which has made all mankind their debtors.
Near the close of Jesus ministry he took occasion to warn his followers against the false Christs which would come in his name, claiming identity with his teaching and work, and he said, "Take heed lest any man deceive you.

From our Exchanges

If the garb of profession and mere doing good to be seen of men were removed, and all concerned were to appear as they are in the sight of heaven, it might be found that the criminal who stands behind prison bars is far less a thief than many a respectable church-goer who sits in a luxurious pew.
