Foster's Democrat

Our clerical critic errs when he classes Christian Science with spiritualism, or any other ism, creed, or doctrine. The writer has only love and good will in his heart for one who is striving to uplift and benefit the people of Dover or elsewhere; but he feels constrained to say to those who would oppose Christian Science, that there is only one way in which they can successfully combat its steady growth. It is to give to the world something as satisfying as Christian Science, something that will not only heal the sick, comfort the sorrowing, and reform the sinner, but that will make all who come within its influence better and the world a happier place to live in. This is the kind of work that Christian Science is doing quietly day by day, and it explains why it is gaining in strength and numbers. Jesus said, "By their fruits ye shall know them," and the Christian Scientists of Dover are willing to be judged upon this basis.
