Christian Science stands on its own merits, and its adherents are those who have come, not by persuasion, enticement, or argument in words, but as the result of the demonstration of its teachings, which have brought surcease from pain, suffering, sickness, disease, sorrow, and sin, and have lifted consciousness to a clearer apprehension of the one God and man's unity with Him, susceptible of practicable demonstration and application in daily life.
