The letter of a clergyman on the subject of Christian Science in a recent issue of your paper covers a considerable number of theological dogmas, any one of which would require almost a separate essay to treat in full.
Many persons marvel at the thought of instantaneous or other healing in Christian Science by so-called absent treatment, when the patient is separated from his practitioner.

INFINITE SUPPLY

In the old theological teaching, the thought of supply seemed to the writer to be a contradiction and an enigma, based as it was on the supposition that Jesus, a faithful son, was poor, while his Father was rich.

NOT OUT OF THE WORLD

There is no time or place more favorable to the working out of our salvation than just where we find ourselves, for where we are, that is in our own thought, is the only place where God is available as our Saviour.

FROM OUR EXCHANGES

[Rev.
One does not have to accept Christian Science in order to grasp its view-point, and yet this is logically deduced from Jesus' declaration, "God is Spirit".
"Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, the text-book of Christian Science, takes as its fundamental proposition the omnipotence, omnipresence, and omniscience of God, as taught by Jesus the Christ, who working from this very basis healed the sick and the sinning more successfully and more certainly than any method of healing that has ever yet been, or ever will be, presented to mankind.
It is strange to us that the reverend gentleman, after making such sweeping concessions as he does in admitting "multitudes in every communion have been marvelously healed by more or less direct coming into the presence of God," and knowing, as he must know, something of the all-power of God, should object if the church is "challenged to abaridon all other means and depend solely upon the method of Jesus.
The address on Christian Science, given by a clergyman and reported in your paper, may be said to have been directed to two issues: first, to a repudiation of the theology of its teaching; and, second, to a criticism of its practise.
