As a sequel to his sermon on "The Truths of Spiritualism,"' the Rev. E. Heber Newton, D. D., delivered a sermon in All Souls' Church on "The Truths of Christian Science." Dr. Newton surprised many of his hearers who had hitherto supposed that a belief in Christian Science was in direct conflict with the views of the church. He took pains to show that the two in no way conflicted. In the course of his remarks he said: —
"Christian Science has come to be the recognition of what Jesus Christ thought and did. What the limits of this potency in healing are it is not for me to say, but I believe that as the centuries roll on there will be miracles such as we have never seen.
"Christ saw that sickness was a consequence of sin, and the best way to cure it was to cure the sin. Thus we see that the healing of the body and the soul are not two things, but one. I cannot see but that the failures of medical science and the church are due to their failure to recognize this. From the philosophy suggested in the story of Christ the philosophy of our friends develops that philosophy is not material, but mental." —
