Moving and Removing Disease

Geoffrey J. Barratt

There's a widely held wish to remove disease from human experience. In the medical field tremendous human resources of time, energy, money, have been—and are being—devoted to this end. The reliable method—the spiritual method of achieving this goal—is to be found in Christian Science.

This prophylactic and therapeutic Science proves disease to be a belief in mortal thought, not spiritual, God-created reality. Disease can be removed in the measure we apply this basic analysis of it through divine metaphysics.

Disease, as mortal belief, cannot move itself—either through time or space. To understand this is to have a potent weapon in dealing with it. If we're confronted with a diseased condition that seems to have started off in a small area but to be spreading, we can combat it immediately with spiritual truth. And Mind moves—and removes—the belief of disease in human thought when we recognize that Mind is always the reality, even where disease seems to have a place.
