12	    Critics should consider that the so-called mortal man
  	is not the reality of man. Then they would behold the
  	signs of Christ's coming. Christ, as the spir-	                         Essential
15	itual or true idea of God, comes now as of	                         element of
  	old, preaching the gospel to the poor, heal-	                         Christianity 
  	ing the sick, and casting out evils. Is it error which
18	is restoring an essential element of Christianity, — 
  	namely, apostolic, divine healing? No; it is the Science
  	of Christianity which is restoring it, and is the light
21	shining in darkness, which the darkness comprehends
  	not. 
  	    If Christian Science takes away the popular gods, — 
24	sin, sickness, and death, — it is Christ, Truth, who de-
  	stroys these evils, and so proves their nothingness. 
  	    The dream that matter and error are something
27	must yield to reason and revelation. Then mortals
  	will behold the nothingness of sickness and sin, and
  	sin and sickness will disappear from consciousness. 
30	The harmonious will appear real, and the inharmo-
  	nious unreal. These critics will then see that error
  	is indeed the nothingness, which they chide us for
 1	naming nothing and which we desire neither to honor
  	nor to fear. 
 3	    Medical theories virtually admit the nothingness of
  	hallucinations, even while treating them as disease; and
  	who objects to this? Ought we not, then, to app...rove
 6	any cure, which is effected by making the disease appear
  	to be — what it really is — an illusion?
