Healing April 8, 1972 Issue

[Ability to demonstrate Christian Science comes with study and practice of the truth taught by Christ Jesus and revealed in Science and Health. This series touches upon some ways in which this truth can be applied.]

Healing through denial and affirmation

Men and women are not material, as the physical senses claim—mortal, sick, sinful, crippled, in pain, poverty-stricken, unemployed, lonely. They are spiritual children of God, immortal, loved and cared for by the all-powerful, divine Father, heirs to His infinite riches of Life and Love, whole, healthy, harmonious, satisfied.

Healing takes place when one denies the mortal picture of error and affirms the spiritual, true image of God's perfection.

If we are confronted with the appearance of deformity, lack, disease—discord in any form—either in our own or another's body or experience, it is important to deny such an error promptly and to affirm with conviction the spiritual truth of perfect being in God's image.
