Truth God's Remedy

MILDRED BARNES SIMPSON

WE may well pause to be grateful to Mary Baker Eddy for the revealed truth she has given us in "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures." A passage (pp. 142, 143) is of inestimable value to Christian Scientists. It is, "Truth is God's remedy for error of every kind."

In our experience as Christian Scientists we learn the utter futility of turning to material aid for relief from seeming bodily ailments. Christian Science teaches that a drug, being a form of nonintelligent matter, applied to a human body, another form of matter, could bring no relief from illness, for the seeming cause of the disorder is mental, and hence right ideas are required for healing. We know that the recognition of the presence of divine Mind is requisite to correct errors of belief.
