Christianity: a provable Science

RICHARD C. BERGENHEIM

A woman's attention was arrested by a sign announcing a Christian Science lecture. The sign said that the speaker would focus on the nature of scientific Christianity. The woman was puzzled, for although she was an earnest Christian, she did not know how Christianity could be scientific. The more she thought about it, the more questions she had.

What, indeed, is scientific Christianity?

Christian Science answers that it is the Science of Christ: the laws of being as taught by Christ Jesus and exemplified in his life. It is the Science that proves Spirit, God, to be the causative and governing force of all true being. It is the Science that proves matter and the physical universe to be unreal. It is the Science that teaches Christians how to fulfill the Master's demand, "Be ye... perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect."^{ Matt. 5:48;}
