Healing is Accomplished Through Right Thinking and Right Living Says Christian Science Lecturer

s Virgil O. Strickler, member of the board of lectureship of The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, the following lecture at Hagerstown Fridar night. "As it becomes more generally understood that through the ministry of Christian Science people are being healed of sickness, sin, unhappiness, worry, fear and other discordant conditions, there is an ever-increasing desire upon the part of the general public to learn how these results are accomplished. It is the purpose of this lecture to explain how Christian Science does these things. There is no mystery, nor is it difficult to under: stand. It can be stated without any reservation whatever that every person who is willing to do so may learn how to heal sickness and to destroy the desire to sin for himself and other through Christian Science. ' Many Different Religious Beliefs. "It is said that there are tnore than two hundred different kinds of the Christian religion alone, not to mention the hundreds of other forms cf religions that are not Christian. It is a fact that people do entertain widely different religious beliefs. In many instances ike differences are irreconcilable, and yet every one, believes with all of the sincerity of which he is capable that his own-particular beliefs are true. It must be conceded that, in the main, all people are equally honest and equally sincere in their religious beliefs. The only reason why they are grouped together in different forms of religions is because they honestly believe that" through their own particular form of religion they will find the good which they so earnestly desire. "As one considers the subject of religion from this broad viewpoint it becomes entirely plain that most of the people in the world are believing as their religion many things that are not tru. Limited to Spiritual Truths. "Every one will recognize not only the desirability, but the necessity, of exchanging false and erroneous beliefs; hence it follows that one's religion is limited to the amount of spiritual truth he knows, and that erroneous religious beliefs are only so many delusions that serve no other purpose: that to obstruct spiritual growth. "Christian Science aims to destroy erroneous religious beliefs by substituting a knowledge of truth in place thereof, and to destroy out of the human mind all evil qualities by planting good qualities in their stead. It wages relentless warfare against all wrong mental qualities. ' It seeks to substitute love in place of hate, unselfishness in the place of selfishness, honesty in place of dishonesty, and truth in place of error, iriays tremendous emphasis upon the necessity for "bringing into captivity, every thought to the obedience of. Christ," (II Cor. x, 5) as the Bible commands. It shoVs that the cause of all disease and sin Is mental, and not physical, and ' that both sickness and sin are destroyed by the evangelization of the human mentality with truth and love. It teaches without reservation whatever that the truth taught and practiced by Jesus, when understood and applied, is sufficient without drugs or any material means to heal the sick and regenerate the sinner, And Christian Scientists everywhere are engaged daily in demonstrating and proving this to be true. Leave No Doubt. "Every student of religion should begin to give heed to what the Bible teaches concerning the importance of looking to the mental rather than to the physical, for deliverance from human discord. We read in Romans viii, 6, 7, "To be carnally minded is death ; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, neither, indeed, can be." Again in Philippians ii, 5, it is said, "Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus;" and In Romans xii, 2, "Be ye transformed by the .renewing of your mind." "These significant statements from the Scriptures leave no room for doubt as to the cause of. sin, disease, and death, or their cure. The carnal mind is nothing more nor less than the unregenerated human mind. It is the human mind in its natural state, when filled with hatred, selfishness, deceit, dishonesty, and other evil qualities, and with superstition and false beliefs, These evil and erroneous mental qualities result in sin, disease, and death, and in all human discord. Not One Sinful Quality ' "The command is to get rid of erroneous mental qualities, and to have in us "the mind which was also in Christ Jesus," for in this Mind there was not l single sinful quality, nor any superitition or false religious belief. Thus

the human mind Is renewed by the destruction of erroneous and sinful mental qualities, and the substitution in their place of qualities that Inhere in the Mind of the Master. .

"As this renewing process goes on, sickness, suffering, and discordant con

ditions begin to disappear, and when it is finished, and every mortal thought has been brought into subjection to Christ, then man will be transformed from human will, nor from hypnotism, a state of peace and harmony. The carnal mind with its sin and superstition, produces the conditions that lead to death, while to be spiritually minded, that is to have the Mind that was In Christ Jesus, "is life and peace."

Christian Science teaches that this is

the precise process by which human

beings are saved from sickness and

sin. '. ' - - . Healing Is Spiritual "It will thus be seen that Christian Science healing In every case is spiritual, and results from the operation of Truth or divine Principle in human consciousness, and not from the action of one human mind upon another, nor from humon will, nor from hypnotism, nor from mental suggestion. , "To summarize the matter in a single sentence, it can be said that Christian Science healing is accomplished through the activity of right thinking and right living, and in no other way can one demonstrate the Principle that heals. . . . . Mrs. Eddy's Discovery "Mrs. Eddy is acknowledged to be the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, ' and many people nsk what it is that she has. discovered. In reply it can be paid that she has discovered the law of Spirit which is spiritual truth. ; ;, ,,y- ".-. "Mrs. Eddy also studied the miracles in the' Old and New Testaments, and came to the inevitable conclusion that all of those events were correlated by means of ar underlying spiritual law that had been known and understood by the men who wrought them, and she said that if she could discover the law it would be found to operate in the same manner now as in Bible times; that it would be a healing law, and would now heal people of sickness and sin and every evil human condition the same as then. "This idea' grew and expanded In her consciousness until it became the impelling motive" of her entire Ufa. In the year 1866 she discovered the law of Spirit, and named it Christian Science. Waited Nine Years "After waiting nine years, during which time she subjected the Principle that she had discovered to the broadest practical tests in healing sickness and other forms of human discord, she published a statement of Christian Science in. a book which 6he entitled "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures." This book is now everywhere recognized as the only text-book of Christian Science. A great religious movement has formed around its teachings, which in one generation has girdled the earth with its churches. The spread of Christian Science has been phenomenal, and its groTth has resulted from healing. Every adherent of Christian Science has actually been healed of some sickness, disease

Out of Danger Mr. C. D. McCoy, residing at 435 S. 13th St., who is employed at the Richmond Safety Gate Co., on 15th Street, stopped at corner of 6th and Main streets, 11 a. m., Friday, and took a free dose of World's Tonic from the man who is demonstrating on the street. Then went to his work and three hours later passed a monster Tape Worm 38 , ft. long. . When the man in charge was asked why their medicine would remove all germs and worms when all other medicines and methods had failed, he said his company with the aid of the best scientists and physicians had spent ten years and $250,000 and had searched the entire world to get this wonderful new medicine not only for tape worms, but for Liver, Kidney, Bladder Blood and Stomach Trouble, and especially Rheumatism. . He off 's $1,000 for any Tape Worm he can't remove and does it free with one dose of the World's Tonic without any starving process. Adv.

How about the tires on your trucks? What are they costing you per mile of service? What should they cost? Have you ever figured on them? Is there a leak here that ought to be stopped? We like to have a customer get right down to brass tacks when we talk to him about truck tires. We like to do business with people who buy on a scientific basis.

FORMER AUDITOR IS ILL

EATON, O., April 20. George W. Rehfuss, grocer and an ex-county auditor, has been quite ill the last several days at his home here. Physicians diagnose his illness as being due to "shingles." - -

or sinful appetite, and most . of them have been healed of many such conditions. These facts are easily verified, and are worthy of very serious consideration. "Mrs. Eddy discovered the law of Spirit as truly as Sir Isaac Newton discovered the law of gravitation, and this fact should be thoroughly understood. Just as Newton discovered that the movements of material bodies are regulated and governed by thiB material law, so Mrs. Eddy discovered the Principle that governs the entire universe, including every detail in the lives of men. That supreme, creative, governing, omnipresent Mind or Principle is God, the only cause, the only creator, the only Ruler of man and the universe.
