Amy Voorhess wrote about Christian Science, “This new religious identity was not simply an invention of Christian Scientists but embodied central features of Eddy’s book as it developed over time. This is especially evident if we pay attention to the origins and receptions of Science and Health. Christian Scientists received Eddy’s text most fundamentally as a God-revealed message concerning the principle, law, or science that had once activated biblical healing, a discovery they now claimed should renew and extend apostolic life in the modern era.”
