I am confident that you will welcome a statement regarding references to Mary Baker Eddy, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, which occur in an article in your issue of August 3.

As the result of her study and practice Mrs. Eddy stated the proved and provable rules of Christian Science in her textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures." These rules, based on the word and work of Christ Jesus and of the prophets and apostles, are in entire agreement with the Bible, and the fact that God is the power in the healing work.

Mrs. Eddy writes in "Miscellaneous Writings" (pp. 313, 314): "Humbly, and, as I believe, divinely directed, I hereby ordain the Bible, and 'Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures' to be hereafter the only pastor of The Church of Christ, Scientist, throughout our land and in other lands." Her whole purpose in doing this was to present Christian Science in all its purity and clarity, and to prevent her discovery, which she had proved to be the truth, from becoming beclouded by varying human opinions. She took this action as the result of experience and divine guidance.
