In the Christian Science Bible Lesson

Overcoming Error

When I read in the Monitor some time ago of an invention which was being tried by a railroad company in Canada for the control of trains with the view of avoiding accidents, the thought came to me that an invention which would sound an alarm on approach of trouble and so avoid disaster and waste in the business in which I am engaged would be a great boon to every one connected with it.

Altruism and Healing

Universality of comprehension and effort has characterized reformers and their work in all ages.

Love's Power

Even after the fashion of this world's thinking, much weight is attached to the redemptive power of love.

Potency of Truth

The protection assured in the words of the psalmist: "He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty," and "He shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways," was most clearly demonstrated by me, and the twenty-first day of February, 1914, will ever remain a red-letter day in my life.

Recognizing One's Enemy

Naturally the first step toward defeating one's enemy is to recognize who or what he is, since not to know this enemy is to be in danger of coming under his control.

I have read with great interest your report of the Thanksgiving service held by First Church of Christ, Scientist, Bolton, and while fully appreciating the fairness of that report, I should be glad if you would kindly afford me the opportunity of making one or two statements with regard to it, as otherwise some misconception as to the nature and operation of Christian Science is likely to arise therefrom; and I am sure that is far from your intention.
I have read with interest the account in The Scotsman of the address on "Ghosts" delivered by a clergyman in the United Free Assembly Hall.
The report of a sermon by a local minister in a recent issue couples a statement regarding a lack of understanding of God and the Bible today with a reference to Christian Science.
Many people have been led to believe that Christian Scientists are enemies of the medical profession.
Taking the misstatements of an evangelist in their order, the first one attributed to him is that "Christian Science denies the divinity of Jesus Christ.
Perusal of the summary of an attack upon the religion of a large and growing element of decent citizenship in your community, as appearing in a recent issue, produces twofold astonishment,—first, that so much misinformation could be expressed within so small a space; and secondly, that these familiar old fables, after so many years of service in so many places and at so many hands, in vain endeavor to stop the progress of Christian Science, could still be regarded as capable of dissuading here and there an inquirer from following his natural desire to ascertain whether that which has accomplished so much for others might not be equally beneficial to himself.
