Eddy, Mary Baker, 1821-1910

"Science and Health, with Key to the Scriptures"

Divine Science,
rising above physical theories, excludes matter,
resolves _things_ into _thoughts_, and replaces the objects of
123:15 material sense with spiritual ideas.
The term CHRISTIAN SCIENCE was introduced by
the author to designate the scientific system of divine
123:18 healing.
The revelation consists of two parts:
1. The discovery of this divine Science of Mind-
123:21 healing, through a spiritual sense of the Scriptures and
through the teachings of the Comforter, as promised by
the Master.
123:24 2. The proof, by present demonstration, that the so-
called miracles of Jesus did not specially belong to a
dispensation now ended, but that they illustrated an
123:27 ever-operative divine Principle. The operation of this
Principle indicates the eternality of the scientific order
and continuity of being.
Scientific basis
123:30 Christian Science differs from material sci-
ence, but not on that account is it less scien-
tific.
