The Sign of the Cross and the Crown

JIMMY J. VAKIL

Almost every student of Christian Science is familiar with the design of the Cross and Crown seal, which is a registered trademark of all authorized Christian Science literature and of Mrs. Eddy's writings. It is a safeguard and protection to the student of Christian Science and prevents him from being victimized or influenced by spurious literature being circulated under the guise of pure metaphysics, or absolute Christian Science.

The true Christian Scientist heals with the understanding of the Principle of Christian Science and without resorting to drugs, hypnotism, or what is termed mind-cure. The Scientist heals with the understanding that God, divine Mind, includes all goodness, perfection, and immortality, and that He makes man in His own image and likeness, completely spiritual, perfect, harmonious, and immortal.

Understanding this to be the truth of being, the Scientist directs his knowledge of spiritual facts to refute and reverse the evidence of the material senses and its claims of sin, disease, and death. He destroys these by realizing that they are errors of belief, unrealities having no power over man, who is governed perpetually by God's omnipotent law of eternal harmony. He thus proves that man's spiritual perfection and harmony as a child of God is intact.
