Those
who are engaged in the various activities of Christian Science church work are continually striving to spiritualize their concept of church, in order that they may better express more of true and righteous activity.
Our
blessed Lord and Master, Christ Jesus, gave ample proof of the Father's loving-kindness to His children; and while the beloved Son lost no opportunity to help those who called upon him for aid, still he manifested no anxiety over those who seemed unready to follow him.
There
is a notable feature in connection with the testimonies of healing that are given in Christian Science churches and periodicals which can hardly fail to impress the listener or reader, and it is that, while the beneficiaries are abundantly grateful for their physical healing, their gratitude for the spiritual inspiration and enlightenment which Christian Science is bringing to them is declared to be far greater.

Although regretful that criticism of Christian Science was given space in a recent issue of the Baptist Record, and on the front page of that publication, I appreciate your contributor's avowal of freedom from intentional unkindness, bigotry, and intolerance in connection with what he wrote.
