One need only examine the attitude of Jesus and that of materia medica regarding the cause of disease and suffering, to discover that no similarity whatever exists between them. In his treatment of sickness Jesus rested his case entirely with God; while materia medica ignores God altogether and rests its case with matter, holding the issue as wholly within material law.

Our home is in Mind, in spiritual consciousness, the eternal harmony of Soul. The builder and maker of this home is Mind. It is built and established in the eternal. Nothing can destroy the harmony of our home. Mind fills it with the glories of the kingdom of God. No fear of sin, sickness, or death can enter this home; no sense of poverty or want.

Let it always be borne in mind by believers in the Bible that Jesus declared the evidence of the presence of the Kingdom to be the healing of the sick, the casting out of devils, the cleansing of lepers, and the raising of the dead. Certainly these must be the evidences, for, carried to their ultimate effect, they comprehend the complete redemption of the human race.

“To successfully treat children, cut off the parent thought. Man is the offspring of God, not man. The material birth is but the false conception. Realize that matter cannot transmit good or evil. It is inert, unintelligent, and cannot be the medium of intelligence. ... Detach the thought of the child from the parent and the germs of erroneous seed of the parent thought will cease to impress the child.”

Body and mind are parts of mentality. This is why a change in thought inevitably results in a change in the body. Since God is Mind or Spirit, man and the world are mental and spiritual. Obstructions and dangers, therefore, have only a spectral existence. Hence safety is the unchanging condition.

Righteousness is a great power. Every true thought leads towards the possession of good. True spiritual thinking, the knowledge of all that is true about God, man, and the universe, is the complete and final remedy for all human woe.

Mrs. Eddy once said to a group of us that we should never permit ourselves to react with intensity to every unpleasant thing. She meant that we should so discipline our individual thought with the truth of being, until we could stand in the presence of seeming error, mentally unmoved and steadfast in our faith in divine Intelligence.
