The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death.—I. Cor. xv. 26.
IN Christian Science circles it is a frequent remark that sin, sickness, and death are beliefs that are to be demonstrated over or destroyed by the power of Truth. To a stranger coming among us this statement sounds strange and absurd. It smacks of arrogance and presumption. It is not in accordance with what he believes to be the fact. The universal experience of the race is strongly set in an opposite direction. Yet, one need not be long with us till he discovers that a part of these claims rests on the Truth.
There is the daily witness of myriads of cases wherein the power of Truth to heal and save is seen. However strange, or uncouth it sounds to unaccustomed ears, the experience of this age is proving that Christian Science Mind healing is a well attested fact. Diseases of every name and degree are yielding to the power of Truth. And this not simply in those instances of so-called nervous troubles in which the medical testimony was, "Nothing ailed them," but in thousands of cases pronounced hopelessly incurable by expert professional skill. No well informed, fair minded person would care to deny this statement.
