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!

“then the only way for me to live unselfishly is to express Him as He directs”

The great thing about this is that this is not a moral directive from a church or a human opinion. It is just the way things are. It is the way this incredible Creator made everything. Therefore, it is the only satisfying way to live, the only profitable, harmonious way to live. The liar will try to lure us into thinking that we could actually be happy being selfish or by pandering to the senses, but that is the trap that we are warned about. Thank you for sharing your “working this out.”
