Give the science of Metaphysical healing a hearing in our pulpits, free discussion from the press, and the place in our institutions of learning that physiology now occupies, and it would eradicate sickness and sin in less time than they have been increasing on the old systems and stereotyped plans to beat them. But incorrect teaching will lower the standard of Truth. Since ever man hath sought out many inventions, he has not learned that knowledge can save him from the dire effects of knowledge. Many a hopeless case of disease is induced by a single post-mortem examination, not from poison or malarial virus, but the fear of the disease and the image brought before the mind during this stirred state of feeling that is outlined on the body. Books that would rule disease out of mortal mind, and efface the images and thoughts of disease, instead of impressing them with force of description and medical detail, would abate sickness and ultimately destroy it. Physiology would have you believe the body is diseased independent of mind, and despite its protest or co-operation.
This error is as evident to us, and will be to others at some future day, as the rejected doctrine that all are lost who are not elected to be saved.
