Testimonies of Healing

I, for one, have had no trouble...

From the February 1914 issue of The Christian Science Journal


I, for one, have had no trouble to reconcile my Hebrew belief with Christian Science, once having divested myself of the prejudice the Jew has had against Christianity, a prejudice which, I am sorry to say, has been mainly fed by the treatment that many professed Christians accord to Jews. Can the Jew be blamed for not having readily accepted the teachings of Christ Jesus when the majority of Christian people deny that they can be followed today, and therefore look askance at Christian Science? I will not, however, quarrel with my Christian brethren, and neither will I allow my Hebrew brethren to bias me with respect to my religion;no one shall come between me and God. I can testify in my own case what wonders Christian Science has done for me. So-called locomotor ataxia held me in its grasp over two years ago, and a doctor of this city, who had not seen me for a year, asked me what I had been doing to myself. He was visibly astonished when I told him that Christian Science had been my only remedy since I left him.

While I could walk with only the greatest difficulty, and then not over ten to twenty blocks without being completely exhausted, I am now as active as a man of middle age can be, especially one who has not yet sufficiently advanced in Science to understand thoroughly that man is the reflection of divine Mind. But however great my physical improvement may be, it is nothing in comparison with the spiritual light which I have received from reading and studying Mrs. Eddy's works, and for this I am everlastingly her debtor.—
