Christian Science.
A system of healing disease of
mind and body which teaches that all cause and effect is mental, and
that sin, sickness, and death will be destroyed by a full
understanding of the Divine Principle of Jesus' teaching and healing.
The system was founded by Rev. Mary Baker Glover Eddy, of Concord, NH, in 1866, and bases its teaching on the Scriptures as understood by
its adherents.
