Mid-Sussex Times

From Letters, Substantially as Published

In a letter published in a recent issue a clergyman sees no necessity for Mrs. Eddy's claim to a special revelation. Mrs. Eddy has shown, however, that she was specially able and prepared fully to receive it and to share her understanding with others. As she writes in her book "Retrospection and Introspection" (p. 76): "Thoughts touched with the Spirit and Word of Christian Science gravitate naturally toward Truth. Therefore the mind to which this Science was revealed must have risen to the altitude which perceived a light beyond what others saw." Christian Scientists respect and appreciate the example and life of individuals such as the Wesley brothers and other sincere evangelists. In fact, we are indebted to Charles Wesley for the hymn, "Help us to help each other, Lord," and for five other devotional poems which are found in the Christian Science Hymnal, where also seven beautiful hymn tunes composed by Samuel S. Wesley appear.
