From Letters, Substantially as Published

I shall be grateful if you will kindly grant me space for a brief reply to the address by the bishop, as published in the Hong Kong Daily Press of October 9.

Christian Scientists indeed appreciate the bishop's kindly reference to the fact that Christian Science is restoring the healing works of Christ Jesus, as recorded in the Scriptures. It is incorrect, however, to describe Christian Science as a man-centered cult and not a God-centered religion, since in Christian Science the Supreme Being is understood to be All-in-all. In the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," Mary Baker Eddy, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, writes (pp. 203, 204), "God is at once the centre and circumference of being." And on page 310, "Science reveals Soul as God, untouched by sin and death,—as the central Life and intelligence around which circle harmoniously all things in the systems of Mind."
