Any attempt to divide these arises from the
fallibility of sense, from mortal man's ignorance, from enmity to God and
divine Science.
Christian Science declares that sickness is a belief, a latent fear, made
manifest on the body in different forms of fear or disease. This fear is
formed unconsciously in the silent thought, as when you awaken from sleep
and feel ill, experiencing the effect of a fear whose existence you do not
realize; but if you fall asleep, actually conscious of the truth of
Christian Science,--namely, that man's harmony is no more to be invaded
than the rhythm of the universe,--you cannot awake in fear or suffering of
any sort.
Science saith to fear, "You are the cause of all sickness; but you are a
self-constituted falsity,--you are darkness, nothingness. You are without
'hope, and without God in the world.' You do not exist, and have no right
to exist, for 'perfect Love casteth out fear.'"
God is everywhere. "There is no speech nor language, where their voice is
not heard;" and this voice is Truth that destroys error and Love that casts
out fear.
Christian Science reveals the fact that, if suffering exists, it is in the
mortal mind only, for matter has no sensation and cannot suffer.
If you rule out every sense of disease and suffering from mortal mind, it
cannot be found in the body.
Posterity will have the right to demand that Christian Science be stated
and demonstrated in its godliness and grandeur,--that however little be
taught or learned, that little shall be right.
