The unjust judge

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!

    Jesus gives us a parable of an unjust judge. This man had no regard for God, no regard for his fellow man, and apparently was quite open about his callous feelings, but was in a position of a judge. Despite all of this, he was compelled to do the right thing for the widow who had been wronged. Obviously, this points to that silent and unseen Influence whose ways are always right and whose will cannot be blocked. In Genesis 18: 25 it says “Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?” No matter what trying circumstances we may encounter, there is a Judge whereby right will be done in His way. This parable was given with a clearly stated purpose “that men ought always to pray, and not to faint.”
