Immunity from Contagion

HELEN L. CONNELLY

One needn't become mesmerized into believing in contagious disease and accepting its symptoms.

Why not? Because the illusion of sickness is manifested through fear, and anyone can stop fearing. Through Christian Science a person can consistently and thoroughly defend his thought in order to have complete immunity from contagion. Fear, he can realize, has never prevented God's being from manifesting perfection; and because, in reality, he is God's direct, flawless reflection, His likeness, fear can never deprive him of true energy and health.

Disease has no power, nor can it claim any. The authority it may seem to have is derived from our false concepts of God and man. But false beliefs are not law, and do not give power to disease. The law of God, good, bases all reality. Disease is the opposite of good. Therefore disease is not a law.
