Testimonies of Healing

For me to try to tell what Christian Science has done for me, would be like trying to gild fine gold. It has raised me up from slavery to a false appetite to a sense of life in God.

About four or five years ago I became interested in Christian Science, and since then I have received many blessings. I feel that I owe a debt which can only be paid by living the truth as taught in Science and Health, which is a very precious book to me.

I Realize that my gratitude for the many blessings which Christian Science has brought into my life can only be expressed by my efforts to live the truth as given to us by our dear Leader, Mrs. Eddy, and so plainly set forth in "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by her.

I became interested in Christian Science about five years ago, not for my own physical healing, but because of my wife's experience. She had been treated by different doctors for years, but not receiving much benefit became very much discouraged, and I persuaded her to try Christian Science.

A recent victory of spiritual law over material belief, made manifest in one of my children, has brought me to a place where I feel it a duty to God and to mankind to testify publicly.

SO abundant are the blessings which have come to me through Christian Science I cannot withhold my testimony, hoping it may lead some one to Truth. It came to me at a time when I was greatly in need of relief.

During my experience in Christian Science I have been helped many times, one case being the healing of a carbuncle. One night when I retired I noticed a small red spot on my cheek, but did not pay any attention to it.

I am glad to testify to healing received by me in Christian Science. I had an eruption on my face which caused me a great deal of trouble; but I applied to a Christian Science practitioner for help, and after receiving two or three treatments it left, and there is no sign of its return.

The psalmist says: "O give thanks unto the Lord; for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever. " Any one who has experienced so much of the divine goodness as I would be remiss in duty should he fail to acknowledge it.

I wish to give my testimony to the benefit which Christian Science has been to myself and children. I have been interested in it over a year, and we have been helped out of many ailments, such as headache, a bowel disorder, colds, the effects of poison-ivy (which was healed in a couple of days through the reading of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mrs.
