All revelation (such is the popular thought!) must come from the schools, and along the line of scholarly Divine kings and priests. and ecclesiastical descent, as kings are crowned from a royal dynasty. In healing the sick and sinful, Jesus elaborated the fact that it was the divine Principle, and Christ spirit, which governed the corporeal Jesus. For this Principle there is no dynasty, no ecclesiastical monopoly. Its only crowned head is immortal sovereignty. Its only priest is the spiritualized man. The Bible declares that all believers are “made kings and priests unto God.” The outsiders did not then, and do not now, understand this Principle of the Christ; therefore they cannot demonstrate God's healing power. Neither can this manifestation of Christ be understood, until its Principle is explained in Divine Science.
The adoption of Scientific religion and of metaphysical healing will ameliorate sin, sickness, and death. Let our A change demanded. pulpits do justice to Christian Science.

Anciently the followers of Christ, or Truth, measured Christianity by its power over sickness, sin, and death; Two claims omitted. but modern religionists omit all but one of these claims, — the power over sin. We must seek the undivided garment, the whole of Christianity as our first proof of Christian Science, for that alone can furnish us with absolute evidence.
