God
, Spirit, is Life, without beginning and without end; and man, the image and likeness of God, God's reflection, is spiritual, coexistent and coeternal with God, his creator; therefore man reflects eternal Life.
Every
mortal at some time in his experience comes to a point where every human resource fails him, to a point where every human expedient, system, or method is found wanting.
"Oh
that I knew where I might find him! that I might come even to his seat!"—Job's prayer—is still echoing down the ages, reaching the ear of mortals as they struggle to extricate themselves from their difficulties.

A doctor is manifestly unfair to his own profession when, in his article in a recent issue, he speaks of doctors as "a pretty punk lot and [who] have their queer ways and all that.
Miss Margaret H. Anderson, Committee on Publication for Natal, South Africa,
In your letter published recently in the Week-end Advertiser, dealing with present-day views of religion and headed, "Deluding the Public," you designate Christian Science as one of "the lower forms of Protestantism" and class it with spiritualism and theosophy.
Richard H. Smith, Committee on Publication for the State of Montana,
In a recent issue you very kindly published a refutation of the claim made by a revivalist that Christian Science denies many of the important teachings of God and is leading millions of souls to hell.

I was suffering from lead poisoning and another disease, pronounced incurable by doctors, for about a year, during which time I was under medical care; and the condition finally resulted in complete loss of reason.
Before knowing anything about Christian Science I loved to read the New Testament, to attend church, and to teach in a Sunday school connected with a Nonconformist church.
