Christian Science depends for its healing entirely upon the realization of God as the divine Principle or Mind of all that is or that has reality, and it is through this understanding of the divine Mind as a fixed Principle, or the operation of law, not in a miraculous but in a divinely natural way, that Christian Scientists are enabled to heal not merely nervous or functional diseases, but organic and structural ills also, and in ever-increasing numbers.
In
the seventh book of Plato's "Republic" there is a dissertation on education and a description of the philosopher or teacher, which is very suggestive of the unreality of the world of material sense.
A Christian Science
testimony meeting is for the purpose of making known to a suffering world that our redeemer still lives, and that today, as in the days of primitive Christianity, people are being healed of all manner of disease and reclaimed from all forms of sin.
Many
who seek for healing in Christian Science are looking for this harmony to be manifested according to their present sense of what constitutes health.
Christian Science is not a speculative theory nor a man-made philosophy of the human mind, it is a system of divine metaphysics based wholly upon the Bible; the definite rule for its application being completely and logically presented in the Christian Science text-book, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Rev.
It should be noted that the majority of those who turn to this Science for relief do so only after all other means have failed, or after they have seen for themselves convincing proof of its safety and success.
