A Reply
to the article published by Mrs.
Theresa MacDonald , June 18 and
25 , in a Valentine newspaper :
We do not question Mrs. Mac-
Donald's sincerity of purpose in
publishing Mr. Dixon's idea on
the subject of Christian Science.
Nevertheless , it is quite evidenjb .
that she has not given the subject
any careful , charitable , unpreju-
diced study.
Christian Science is not some-
thing to be swallowed like a pill ,
but it requires diligent study and
intelligent comprehension.
The word "science" does not
imply blind belief , but definite
understanding.
Christian Science , therefore , is
Christian understanding or know-
ledge.
ledge.The
The knowledge of God I re
gard as the key to all other
know ledge.- William Morris.
They who have the most
perfect and universal love
have the most perfect know-
ledge. - ± * rof. Mosley. I
Christian Scientists do not serve
I
Satan , but deny him. They be-
iev.e : in the Allness , of God and the
nothingness of evil or error , His
.
opposite.
.If God is infinite , All-in-all , as
the ; scriptures aver , where can you ,
in a spiritual sense , find room for
evil as a positive quantity ? We
would like to know.
It is the Spirit that beareth
witness because the Spirit is
Truth.-St. Paul.
Therefore , God's opposite , evil ,
is not Truth , but error , and no er
ror is real but only seems real so
long as the belief in its reality
lasts.
Naturally , Christian Scientists
believe in God as everything ,
All-in-all , to the exclusion of all
/
evil. ' They cannot believe in evil.
Jesus was accused of casting out
devils throug the prince of devils ,
but He wrought His wonders thru I
His understanding of the Divine
Mind , God , for He understood the
unreality of sin , disease , and death ,
and temporal things , above all
others.
In the healing of the , sick Chris
tian Scientists act according to the
commands and teachings of Christ
Jesus , as the early Christians did.
That Christian Scientists do not
do away with the Christ is shown
by the following words of Frank
H. Leonard , published in the
Sioux City Journal , June 15 , ' 09 :
It is frequently said that
Christian Science denies God
and Christ. In refutation of
this statement I desire to say
that God is referred to over
1,200 times and Jesus Christ
over 800 times in the Christian
Science text book ( Science
and Health with Key to the
Scriptures ) , an average of
over three times to every page
thereof , and every reference
to either God or Christ brings
out a more exalted thought
than the world has heretofore
know.a. I
I
Mr. Dixon has read .just enough
Christian Science to enable him to
misrepresent it by an adroit play
of words and distorting of the
original text.
We can prove this statement by I
the use of his own wprk . and the
"
books it involves in its references.
Christian Science is Christian
:
according to the teachings of
Christ Jesus , and it is scientific
