WHAT HEALS IN SCIENCE?

From the July 1889 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Is it not realization of the true sense of Being? Of man's true estate as the image and likeness of God, the opposite of the man declared through material sense? This understanding has come to us through one who has fulfilled, even in conception, all the conditions of human belief. Jesus, the first and perfect Demonstrator of the immortal, perfect man was conceived differently from us, direct from the Divine Idea. Yet, in his mortal estate he was one with us, and could "be touched with the feeling of our infirmities," because he was "in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin."

In the revelation of the Science of Jesus' demonstrations—in the more perfect realization of Love—God has in this age, and through the higher spiritualization of man, come nearer to us. This is speaking according to appearances; in reality man has come so much nearer to God.

Divine Science realized is "God with us," because Science is the Mind of God. Just in the measure that any Scientist is in the realization of the true estate of man, is he one with the Father, and all the emanations of that thought are healthful and life-bearing. It is belief in the opposite consciousness—that of the man of the personal senses, that is miasmatic, death-bearing.
