Removal, reconstruction, restoration, through Christ

CAROLYN B. SWAN

Christian Science makes available to mankind today the spiritual art of divine Mind-healing that Jesus exemplified. Mind, God—expressed in human consciousness through Christ, the healing and saving message Jesus taught and practiced—is always all-powerful. And it is from the basis of the omnipotence of divine Love and of the exactness of Christ, Truth, acting in human thought that healing is practiced in Christian Science.

Christian Science healing removes what is discordant, but not through material means nor through mentally willing away unwanted matter. Nor does it repair and recoup wanted matter through mental suggestion. Since Mind is All, there is no matter. And Christ removes the belief that matter is living, intelligent substance. To human perception this is how Christ meets our needs, by spiritually regenerating us and by restoring our spiritual understanding that substance is Spirit—the only Mind and Life, God—and that man is His eternally perfect, spiritual likeness.
