Until people understand the distinction made by Christian Science between the material sense of existence and the spiritual sense of it, the sense which is native to God's man, His image, their efforts to heal spiritually are certain to be ineffective.
One of the essential steps in effective prayer is to silence corporeal sense in order that one may hear the evidence of Spirit and feel the healing energy of divine Love.
For over a century Christian Science has taught and proved that all sickness has its source in the human mind, that the symptoms and sensations of disease are mentally induced phenomena that should never be viewed or treated as physical conditions.
The treatment of disease in Christian Science must go far beyond the apparent evidences of disease and extend to the theories of the human mind that support illness and suffering.
