We have ample proof that the intricate problems of higher mathematics can be solved by known rules; yet, when the student correctly works out the simpler problems in addition and subtraction he proves the fundamentals of mathematics to be true, even while he realizes that problems in algebra or trigonometry must await his attainment of a greater understanding.
Longley Taylor, Committee on Publication for the State of Illinois,
If we accept the philosophy of Christianity to be the spiritual understanding of God, then we can use the term in connection with Christian Science, but not otherwise.
Miss Emily Johnson Jones, Committee on Publication for the State of North Carolina,
Instead of leading men to destruction, Christian Science is saving them every day from sin, disease, and destruction, by giving an understanding of God that they can demonstrate in their daily lives.
It
has often been said by some who have been in Christian Science a little while, "If I could only be in company with some real good Christian Scientists, how much more easily I could work out my salvation!" Neither you nor I, however, can ever get away from the fact that we have our own salvation to work out "with fear and trembling," as Paul says.
It
is doubtful whether changes so momentous, so full of import and significance as those which are now overturning material theories, beliefs, and practices, ever before took place in material history.
