The First Commandment

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!

    5. 19: 6-7 (to ,), 29-5
    Jesus aided in reconciling man to God by giving man a truer sense of Love, Jesus urged the commandment, “Thou shalt have no other gods before me,” which may be rendered: Thou shalt have no belief of Life as mortal; thou shalt not know evil, for there is one Life, — even God, good. He rendered “unto Caesar the things which are Caesar’s; and unto God the things that are God’s.” He at last paid no homage to forms of doctrine or to theories of man, but acted and spake as he was moved, not by spirits but by Spirit.

    This reminds me of page 59 in Watches, Prayers, and Arguments where it says, “One Mind; Truth controls all. You are set free in the Love of God, and you cannot make or believe a lie.”

    I find these two passages very helpful when confronting all types of situations and thoughts that seem untrue to me.
