In reading the published criticism on a Christian Science lecture recently delivered in your city, I am impressed with the extent to which one's statements may be misjudged and misinterpreted by a critic whose motive in attending is not to be informed, but to gather material for disputation.

Jesus said, "I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil," and then proceeded to destroy sin and sickness, thus giving an object-lesson of their unreality, well knowing the impossibility as well as the undesirability of destroying any part of God's creation, which alone is true or real.
The account of Christian Science given in the sermon printed in your paper is calculated to cause more astonishment to a Christian Scientist than to any one else.

"PUT OFF"—"PUT ON."

In various parts of the Scripture, the act of putting off and putting on is employed symbolically to impress with graphic distinctness many lessons respecting purity of life and conduct,—putting off "the old man" of sin, putting on "the new man" of righteousness; putting off the foolishness of childhood, putting on the full vigor of Christian manhood; putting off materiality with its selfishness and its failure, putting on spirituality with its selflessness and its triumphs; putting off mortality and corruption, putting on immortality and incorruption.
