More on "Health without Drugs"


        The following words from Mary Baker Eddy regarding metaphysical healing might be of interest to those who have read the preceding blog.  From my own experience of studying and applying the divine truths of Christian Science over many years, I can say that turning to God for a restoration of health and well-being certainly gets results.

This is from "Miscellaneous Writings", pages 255 and 256 -

"Advantage of Mind-Healing

It is sometimes asked, What are the advantages of your system of healing?

I claim for healing by Christian Science the following advantages: -

First: It does away with material medicine, and recognizes the fact that the antidote for sickness, s well as for sin, may be found in God, the divine Mind.
Second: It is more effectual than drugs, and cures where they fail, because it is this divine antidote, and metaphysics is above physics.
Third: Persons who have been healed, by Christian Science are not only cured of their belief in disease, but they are at the same time improved morally. The body is governed by Mind, and mortal mind must be corrected in order to make the body harmonious."
