A careful examination of Scriptural teaching will be convincing that in their theory Christian Scientists are no farther in advance of their practices than are other Christians who believe the Bible, and who endorse such declarations as the following: "Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect." "And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength."

Christians who fulfil the demands of these admonitions of our Lord will not fall short of the demands of Christian Science. Jesus said, "The works that I do shall he do also." He made no exception whatever; he did not say,—He that believeth in me shall be able to do in a degree the works that I do, but "The works that I do shall he do also."

A believer, therefore, according to our Master's standard, should be able to heal the sick, cast out evils, raise the dead, and overcome all human woes, all calamities, and even counteract the evil effects of the elements.
