One makes the healed know God; the other simply heals the physical. Faith healing is not really healing, or else the patient would be one with God. So do not think because you heal, you are a Christian Scientist; as medicine heals as regards the senses, and so does error. A Christian Scientist heals the moral as well as the physical.” Mary Baker Eddy (Carpenter, Jr., GIlbert, 500 Watching Points, #323)

Do I approve to treating personally for malicious mesmerism the offending malpractitioner, even when the malpractitioner is attempting to kill some one, and Scientists know it? Shall they treat the offender personally? I answer, if they do treat thus, they prolong their own undertaking. The attitude of Christian Science is Omnipotence. Truth is given us for this purpose – to destroy error and make man free in the impersonal Christ. Mary Baker Eddy (Carpenter, Jr., Gilbert, 500 Watching Points, #325)

I love; one will ask, whom do you love? I answer, I love. What do you love? I love. If you love, you can raise the dead. Love will heal death; that is the way I have raised the dead, by Love. Love that is above the human. Mary Baker Eddy (Oakes, Richard, Course In Divinity and General Collectanea, p.14)

When we are pushed into tight places, and facing the most severe problems, we are gaining big steps in our lessons and progress. Mortal mind assumes a power to hinder that it does not possess. Nothing can keep us from our birthright. Our worst enemies are the best friends to our growth. If we are spiritually-minded enough not to need knocks to make us grow, we won’t get them. So to be clear enough and good enough to prevent these claims, and frustrate them, is the only way. Mary Baker Eddy (Oakes, Richard, Essays and Bible Lessons, (Red Book), p.72)
