"1. Man is not matter; he is not brains, blood, or bones.
"The very first word in inspiration contradicts this principle in
Christian Science. 'In the beginning God created the heaven and the
earth' (Gen. 1:1). The creation of man contradicts Christian Science.
Listen--'And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and
breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living

"So there is such a thing as man composed of matter such as body, and
blood, and bones.
"2. Man is incapable of sin.
"Let us see what the Bible says of this proposition," continued

"'For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God' (Rom. 3:23).
"'Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures' (1 Cor. 15:3).
"'He shall save his people from their sins' (Matt. 1:21).
"3. Man is incapable of sickness.

Jas. 5:14, 15. "Let him deny that he is sick, and claim that he is
incapable of being sick? No.
