In the report of a sermon on the subject of "Christianity and Psychology," which appeared in the Evening Journal, the speaker is reported as having expressed his belief in divine healing; also, as having attempted to refute the teachings of Christian Science with Bible authority, by reading from the Bible in comparison with extracts on the same subjects from "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," the Christian Science textbook, by Mary Baker Eddy.
