International: Weird Cult

(2 of 2)

*Sample testimonial, by L. C. S. of Salt Lake City: In May, 1902, going home for lunch, on a bicycle, and while riding down a hill at a rapid gait, I was thrown from the wheel, and falling on my left side with my arm under my head, the bone was broken about halfway between the shoulder and elbow. While the pain was intense, I lay still in the dust, declaring the truth and denying that there could be a break or accident in the realm of divine love. . . . I was only two and a half blocks from home, so I mounted my wheel again and managed to reach it. On arriving there I lay down and asked my little boy to bring me our textbook. He immediately brought Science & Health, which I read for about ten minutes, when all pain left. . . . One of my friends invited me to visit a physician's office where they were experimenting with an x-ray machine. . . . On looking through it [the physician] said: 'Yes, it has been broken, but whoever set it made a perfect job of it. . . .' "
