Q A

Q What is your record of success with Christian Science healing?

A It has been practiced effectively for more than a hundred years. In some families, Christian Science has been a successful means of healing and care for five generations. More than 50,000 authenticated testimonies of healing have been published in the monthly and weekly Christian Science periodicals. Many of these have medical verification. In addition, thousands of accounts of healing are given each week at Wednesday testimony meetings in Churches of Christ, Scientist, around the world. Q

Q How does Christian Science differ from faith healing or positive thinking? A

A The practice of Christian Science is not the control of one human mind over another, nor the exercise of human will. Although faith and a positive outlook are helpful, healing does not rest on blind belief or mere optimism, but on an ever-increasing understanding of God and His spiritual creation.

Mary Baker Eddy, Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, established the Church of Christ, Scientist, "to commemorate the word and works of our Master, which should reinstate primitive Christianity and its lost element of healing."
