Many persons complainingly say: "I cannot understand Christian Science. I don't know how to begin." But Truth declares you can begin; nay, that sometime you must begin.
The work is easy if undertaken with common sense and earnestness.
To begin, you must first empty your consciousness of its false theories, its hates and its lies. Not all at once can you do this, but you can begin. You may commence to-day by ceasing to discuss sickness and sin except with a view to destroying them. Refrain from idle gossip, from slander and all uncharitableness. Turn your gaze steadfastly away from false theories and from all thoughts which tend to the belief that matter ever governs or makes laws which God bids you obey. It is dangerous beyond human comprehension to admit these false notions into consciousness. .
