One
frequently hears the remark: "I am very grateful indeed for what Christian Science has done for me, but I am afraid I shall never have the courage to stand up and give a testimony.
Our
dear Leader tells us that "desire is prayer; and no loss can occur from trusting God with our desires, that they may be molded and exalted before they take form in words".
Christian Scientists prove their views about Christ and about the supposed powers of evil to be correct, as did the early Christians, by positive "proof," by "signs following," such as Jesus affirmed should in all ages be the reasonable evidences of loyal, genuine discipleship.
That Christian Science should appear an absurdity to people who do not understand its teachings need cause no surprise; the discoveries of natural science met at first with equal derision.
