My attention has been called to an article in your latest issue, in which you quote from the current issue of the Blackburn Cathedral Magazine a statement in regard to Christian Science which is not quite correct.

On page 1 of her book "Rudimental Divine Science," Mrs. Eddy defines "Christian Science" as "the law of God, the law of good, interpreting and demonstrating the divine Principle and rule of universal harmony."

Christian Science, therefore, teaches, in accordance with the Bible, that God's creation is perfect and spiritual. It teaches also that all the trouble and discord and difficulty in our human experience, all sin, sickness, and suffering, arise from a false material sense of God's perfect spiritual universe. Christian Scientists are proving the truth of these teachings in the same way that Jesus did, by healing the sick, saving the sinner, and breaking down many material limitations in their own lives, solely by spiritual means.
