The nature of spiritual healing

MARK SWINNEY

One of the happiest things in the Bible is Jesus' promise, "Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you."^{Luke 11:9;} Because the eternal truths of being that healed disease, blindness, and mental sickness in the Master's time are just as powerful now, these same evils are being healed today in Christian Science. The fact is, primitive Christian healing is identical with the scientific spiritual healing of the present century.

Christ Jesus and his disciples healed by spiritual means alone. So can we. Today. Why not start now?

The statement "Evil is destroyed by the sense of good"^{Science and Health, p. 311;} explains how healing takes place. It is from the textbook of Christian Science, Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy. I recently proved these words to be true.
