Pemberville (Ohio) Leader
Christian Science healing cannot be associated with any form of mesmerism. It is not accomplished through any action of the human mind or the control of one mortal mind over another mortal mind, or by any form of deception, but it is the divine Mind, acting upon the so-called human mind, which heals and saves. Jesus knew that the human mind was not a healer. He bore witness to this fact, saying, "I can of mine own self do nothing." He recognized God, divine Mind, as the only power which heals the sick and reforms the sinner, and this is the teaching of Christian Science.
Mrs. Eddy states in her text-book, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" (p. 375): "The Christian Scientist demonstrates that divine Mind heals, while the hypnotist dispossesses the patient of his individuality in order to control him. No person is benefited by yielding his mentality to any mental despotism or malpractice. All unscientific mental practice is erroneous and powerless, and should be understood and so rendered fruitless. The genuine Christian Scientist is adding to his patient's mental and moral power, and is increasing his patient's spirituality while restoring him physically through divine Love."
