The announcement of new Large-Type Editions of the Concordances to Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures and to the Other Writings of Mary Baker Eddy offers an opportunity for the Christian Scientist to consider the practical application of these two volumes as aids to his progress in Christian Science.
The compiler of the Concordances to Science and Health and to our Leader's other writings was healed of heart disease through Christian Science. In gratitude for his healing he and his family devoted much time and labor to the compiling of the Concordance to Science and Health. It is interesting to note that the word "concordance" comes from the Latin, meaning "with the heart." The word means "agreement or harmony." The Concordances to Mrs. Eddy's writings enable the student to go directly to the heart of any subject concerning Christian Science.
A mere perusal of the pages of the Concordances indicates the vast scope of Christian Science. It shows that Science covers the entire subject of pure religion in its application to all human experience. Study of our Leader's writings with the aid of the Concordances enables the homemaker, student, businessman, and church worker to glean valuable information, admonition, and guidance whereby he brings thought into agreement with the teachings of Christian Science and finds the solution to every one of his problems. And the final result is the purification and spiritualization of individual consciousness, which accompany the enlightening and healing effects of Truth in daily living.
