If 12
the sick are aided in this mistaken fashion, their ailments
will return, and be more stubborn because the relief is
unchristian and unscientific. 15
Christian Science erases from the minds of invalids
their mistaken belief that they live in or because of matter,
or that a so-called material organism controls the health 18
or existence of mankind, and induces rest in God, divine
Love, as caring for all the conditions requisite for the well-
being of man. As power divine is the healer, why should 21
mortals concern themselves with the chemistry of food?
Jesus said: "Take no thought what ye shall eat."
The practitioner should also endeavor to free the minds 24
of the healthy from any sense of subordination to their
bodies, and teach them that the divine Mind, not material
law, maintains human health and life. 27
A Christian Scientist knows that, in Science, disease
is unreal; that Mind is not in matter; that Life is God, 1
good; hence Life is not functional, and is neither matter
nor mortal mind; knows that pantheism and theosophy 3
are not Science. Whatever saps, with human belief,
this basis of Christian Science, renders it impossible to
demonstrate the Principle of this Science, even in the 6
smallest degree.
A mortal and material body is not the actual individuality
of man made in the divine and spiritual image of God.
