Every Christian Scientist has the remarkable privilege of praying intelligently every day for himself and for the world. Through the revelations of this Science and its spiritual insights into the Bible, we can bring to bear upon human experience the truth of one perfect God and His perfect, spiritual creation.
Mrs. Eddy, who discovered Christian Science and provided a full statement of its rules and laws in Science and Health, was inspired by the Bible in its deep, spiritual meaning. She writes, "The divine Love, which made harmless the poisonous viper, which delivered men from the boiling oil, from the fiery furnace, from the jaws of the lion, can heal the sick in every age and triumph over sin and death."Science and Health, p. 243 .
The healing power of Love can be a vital influence on our day. Human experience seems overshadowed by a variety of evils clamoring for attention: imperfection, sickness, inharmony. But we learn in Christian Science that these are only material beliefs. They are only variations of the basic false assumption that man is a discordant mortal separated from his all-powerful Father, infinite Love.
