Please refer to SUBTITLE Text content below. Text Content: If God causes man to be sick, sickness must be good, 24 and its opposite, health, must be evil, for all that He makes is good and will stand forever. If the Sickness from transgression of God's law produces sickness, it mortal mind 27 is right to be sick; and we cannot if we would, and should not if we could, annul the decrees of wisdom. It is the transgression of a belief of mortal mind, not of a law of 30 matter nor of divine Mind, which causes the belief of sick- ness. The remedy is Truth, not matter, — the truth that disease is unreal. 1 If sickness is real, it belongs to immortality; if true, it is a part of Truth. Would you attempt with drugs, 3 or without, to destroy a quality or condition of Truth? But if sickness and sin are illusions, the awakening from this mortal dream, or illusion, will bring us into health, 6 holiness, and immortality. This awakening is the for- ever coming of Christ, the advanced appearing of Truth, which casts out error and heals the sick. This is the sal- 9 vation which comes through God, the divine Principle, Love, as demonstrated by Jesus.
