There Is No Disease
There is no such thing as an incurable disease. What is more, there is no such thing as a curable disease, for there is no disease.
The student who reads for the first time Mary Baker Eddy's statement in "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" (p. 188), "What is termed disease does not exist," may at the moment feel incredulous. He may even ask himself, How can such a statement be true when on every side I see diseases of various kinds taking their toll of human lives?
Disease always claims to be either in or of matter, yet if God is what His only begotten Son declared Him to be—Spirit—and if He, Spirit, fills heaven and earth, as the Scriptures indicate, just what and where is matter? Surely, matter is no part of infinite, ever-present Spirit, and there can be nothing outside of the divine All. Just where, then, is this supposed entity or substance called matter which claims to consume with disease? It is nowhere, and that is why disease does not exist, because it has no means of being present, no substance through which or upon which to work.
