It is good to hear that your correspondest was one of the many interested listeners at the Christian lecture lecture recently delivered in Southport. It is certain that not all were unable, like him, to understand the acclaimed truths. It is not perhaps easy for those who have been steeped in the old theology to change their attitude of thought as quickly as others, but perseverance in the study of the subject will bring good results.

Christian Science emphasizes the Bible statement that "as he [a man] thinketh in his heart, so is he," and shows that thinking precedes all action. Loving thoughts destroy fear, hate, envy, jealousy, and so forth, because loving thoughts originate in the divine Mind and expresent the power of God, who is omnipotent and omnipresent divine Love. These thoughts of God bring and perpetuate peace and harmony; they heal and prevent disease. How necessary, then, it is for humanity to entertain these thoughts, and reject the suggestions of evil, because, not being of God, they are untrue, unreal!

It is rather strange that, after over fifty years of Christian Science teaching and practice, any one should ask whether cancer, consumption, and insanity can be cured by Christian Science. It is established beyond doubt that these so-called diseases have been healed; and Christian Scientists themselves often wonder why the world does not immediately accept the teaching of Christian Science, and why more publicity is not given to its beneficial results.
