NOTES FROM THE FIELD

From the August 1891 issue of The Christian Science Journal


It is with great pleasure I can assure you our meetings and our views are in line with Science and Health; some of us may be classed as lukewarm, but all are loyal to its teaching, so far as they understand.

We belong to the farming class, and, in this sparsely settled country, perhaps, are not subjected to temptation, as in densely populated districts, where, generally, something new is constantly "on the go" to tempt the unstable. A quiet, secluded life has its advantages. We do not hear error voiced in its many forms, but the lack of opportunity to demonstrate, may counterbalance the aforesaid boon.

In some Christian Science publications we have seen it stated that Christian Science has done more to reform mankind, within the last twenty years, than the united creeds, since Jesus trod the earth. At first some of us thought this a strong statement, but on reflection have seen our error. Christian Science is "leavening the lump" on all sides.
