As the discoverer of the Science of Mind-healing, and the Founder and President of the first Metaphysical College for teaching it, I owe it to the public to state, that a book called Mind-cure on a Material Basis, by Sarah E. Titcomb, is shockingly unreliable, incorrect, and misleading on the subject of Christian Science, and my students will sustain me in this assertion.
The Principle of Christian Science is the Divine Mind, "who healeth all our diseases,"—not on a "material basis," but a spiritual one; for Jesus hath said, "Ye shall know the Truth, and the Truth shall make you free." The author's misapprehension of this entire subject is seen, not only in the title of her book, but in her frivolous analysis.
Such works as S. E. Titcomb's and Dr. W. F. Evans's are flooding the land, only to darken the light of Science, to turn the human mind away from Truth, and imbue it with error, thus engendering disease instead of healing it.
