CHRISTIAN SCIENCE IS CHRISTIAN

From the December 1894 issue of The Christian Science Journal

Toledo Blade


MISS SARAH J. CLARK REPLIES TO REV. J. L. BRANDT.

Miss Sarah J. Clark, pastor of the First Church of Christ, Scientist, criticized the recent utterances of Rev. .J. L. Brandt in a sermon to her people yesterday morning. Her comments were made "without malice," and were rather of pity that he had not reached the height where he could appreciate the sublime truth of Christian Science. She chose as a suitable text the words in Acts 5: 39: "But if it be of God, ye cannot overthrow it; lest haply ye be found to fight against God." Her theme was: "Christian Science is Christian." She said in part: "Christianity, Webster says, is the religion founded by Christ. To believe in Christ is the highest aim of man. Christian Science honors God and creation. It clears away the mists.

"Christian Science is Christian because it is founded on Scripture. The Scriptures are sacred to the Christian Scientist because they are his guide to eternal life. Christian Science makes Christianity practical and demonstrable."
