Christian Science is nothing more nor less than the restoration of primitive Christianity. It proves that the faith that is not dead is demonstrable in works, and that the healing of the sick and sinning is today, as in the first few centuries, the necessary outcome of an understanding of Truth. Preach the gospel and heal the sick is the indivisible and enduring injuction, and those who profess to be and call themselves Christians, cannot disregard it. The healing is always the test of the preaching.

Christian Science comes to show mankind that all suffering, sorrow, and sin is the result, or expression, of a want of knowledge—not of material knowledge, but of true and absolute knowledge—for as soon as they arrive at even a slight understanding of the truth about God and His creation, they realize in that degree the promised freedom awaiting all. "Ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." This is no idle or visionary theory. It is in no way an exaggeration to say that there are today hundreds of thousands of people who have tested and proved that the love of God, when we understand how to avail ourselves of it, will heal any and every disease and evil condition that may harass us. Salvation this side of the grave is the salvation of a practical Christianity, and this is the salvation that Christian Science has to offer.
