Vital Issues in Christian Science

A record of unsettled questions which arose in the year 1909 between the Directors of The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, Boston, Massachusetts, and First Church of Christ, Scientist, New York City, eight of its nine Trustees and sixteen of its Practitioners. This important work records Augusta Stetson's spiritual defense of genuine Christian Science against the material concept of Mary Baker Eddy's teaching held by the Christian Science Board of Directors. Mrs. Stetson also explains the Directors' mistake in attempting to assume the prerogative of the forever Leader of Christian Science, Mary Baker Eddy, who spiritually guides those members of her church who have risen to a responsiveness to her constant and continuous spiritual leadership. Contains facsimiles of excerpts and letters from Mary Baker Eddy to Augusta Stetson. Reprint of the 1917 edition.
