The Bulletin Board is for gratitude for Christian Science and the Church, as well as timely excerpts from the Bible, the works of Mrs. Eddy, and the early workers that help and encourage. We are very grateful for all posts that conform to these guidelines, but will edit or remove anything that the Practitioners feel is not in complete accord with pure Christian Science or in any way disrespectful of it.

We also ask that you keep your postings as concise as possible. If you quote the Bible, please use The King James Version, as this is what Mrs. Eddy used. Thank you!

Actually in the context of Leviticus it is limited to fellow tribe´s men, and not to humanity as a whole. The Jews felt themselves God´s favorites, and looked down on the heathen nations. That is why they thought God told them to commit ethnic cleansing. Jesus Christ changed all that, and brought Truth to this dark, illusive world of mortal mind. “Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good unto them that hate you, and pray for them ….” Matthew 5:43,44.
