Christian Scientists know that divine Love alone blesses and saves; that prejudice, misrepresentation, attack, only divide, inflame, and distract Christians from "the race that is set before us,"—namely, to be more Godlike. "He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love." At this crisis especially, with a world in commotion, Christians and bodies of Christians should seek unity, not division.

Mere religious debate is always worse than useless. No amount of argument, friendly or unfriendly, has ever yet proved any religion to be like or unlike the Bible. Jesus said, "If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God." Christian Scientists persist in emphasizing works. The proof of the truth of Christian Science and of its agreement with the Scriptures lies solely in its power to heal.
