In the article in your issue for November, Christian Science healing is not denied; a couple of remarkable cases of such healings are even related; but these healings are ascribed to the devil.

Thus the devil would be acting in the service of good. But what did our Master answer when the scribes declared that it was through the prince of the devils that he cast out the evil spirit? He said, "Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; . . . and if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself; how shall then his kingdom stand? . . . But if I cast out devils by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God is come unto you." Besides, how can the following of Jesus' express command, "Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils," be a work of the devil? Is it not rather the duty of every Christian to do his part in trying to realize the promises which, according to Mark 16:17, 18, were given by our Master?

Christian Science is wholly founded on the Bible, as can be seen from the very title of its textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy.
