The tree of life

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!

    I love all the references to the “tree of life” in this week’s lesson. I’ve never really paid much attention to it.

    Rev. 22:2 speaks of “the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.”

    In S&H, p. 406, Mrs. Eddy states in a paragraph entitled “The leaves of healing”:

    “The Bible contains the recipe for all healing. “The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.” Sin and sickness are both healed by the same Principle. The tree is typical of man’s divine Principle, which is equal to every emergency, offering full salvation from sin, sickness, and death.”

    I love how the tree of life is mentioned in Genesis and Revelation, and from beginning to end, the Bible contains all we need “for all healing”. Thank God that Mrs. Eddy has given us the Key to unlock the Scriptures and explain the Principle that heals.
