MRS. EDDY'S RELATION TO CHRISTIAN SCIENCE

From the April 1903 issue of The Christian Science Journal

The North American Review


CHRISTIAN SCIENCE is a religion of doing. Therefore, let us see what it does.

I suppose there is hardly a reader of this article who does not know of a case in which Christian Science has been tried in the hour of need and proven a help. Some readers, doubtless, know of several such cases. Every Christian Scientist knows of a good number, and there are many Christian Scientists, so that the volume of evidence is a very great one indeed. These cases of cure and comfort cover a multitude of diseases and disabilities, chronic or acute, organic or inorganic, called curable or called incurable by other methods. Every manner of discord and misery, of sin, sickness, and sorrow, has yielded to Christian Science. Being far from infallible, Christian Scientists have some failures to record; but the successes already attained during the thirty odd years that Christian Science practice has been before the world, warrant the hope that results will grow more uniformly good as Christian Scientists progress in spiritual understanding.

The appeal of Christian Science to man is to know God as infinite and omnipotent Good, and to learn to overcome evil with Good.
