In his letter in your recent issue, a clergyman says that the burden of his complaint against Christian Science is that it has no right to call itself Christian at all.

I believe that I have shown in my previous letters in your columns that Christian Science is based on the teachings of the Bible and of Christ Jesus; at any rate, Christian Scientists themselves are quite satisfied on this point, and there are few more diligent Bible students than Christian Scientists.

It is a mistake to say that Christian Science is incapable of proof either on grounds of reason or revelation, for there are tens of thousands of people in England alone who clearly understand the teachings of Christian Science and who have received a satisfying knowledge of God therefrom, as well as very much blessing in the way of saving from sin, healing from sickness, deliverance from discouragement and fear. Had Christian Science not fulfilled its promises, its organization would not have grown as it has done till it now has churches all over the world; and each year more churches are being added to the total.
