Will wonders never cease?
One man, whom the writer has met, made the astounding discovery, that the term Christian Science is not to be found in the Bible; and with this overwhelming argument he hoped to silence the guns of Truth. We fail to find the terms Methodist, Presbyterian, Trinity, God-man, Character, and hundreds of others in the Bible; yet we do not question the use of them. The Bible is our only authority for Truth; but it is not supposed to contain the whole of the English vocabulary. The term Total Abstinence is not Scriptural phraseology; yet Solomon said," Wine is a mocker; strong drink is raging."
There is nothing in a name. The name of a theory may be inadequate to express its purport, and yet the theory itself be correct; but this can not be said of Christian Science, for it is Science, and the grandest and deepest of all sciences, in whose mighty depths all physical science is swallowed up.
