Santa Ana (Cal.) Register

The healing agency employed in Christian Science is a spiritual understanding of the allness of God and the consequent realization of the unreality of all that is unlike Him. This enables the patient to overcome and cast out lust, hatred, malice, revenge, dishonesty, and all the works of the flesh, and their consequent poisonous effects on the system. Thus it will be seen that Christian Science does not seek to remove discord by displacement or substitution through suggestion; it effectually destroys it by bringing to the patient's consciousness a knowledge of the truth which, as the Master promised, sets us free.

Christian Science is primarily a religion, the religion of Jesus, and its chielf mission is to destroy sin, the physical healing being the outward expression of the spiritual transformation that is taking place. Christian Science can heal no one without improving him spiritually and morally, as well as physically, and it can be successfully employed only by those whose lives are being cleansed by Christ.
