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!

Thank you for your post. I would like to add some thoughts from John Morgan’s “Some Notes on True Vision”. He says with regard to the synonym Spirit, “Through Spirit I see all things rightly, clearly, correctly, distinctly, spiritually. This gives me discernment, so that I differentiate between one idea and another, also between true and false…The clear sight of Spirit does not blind me to faults and errors. Rather I detect them more clearly-but as unrealities. I discern only the good and the true to be real, and so my eye is single…It is Spirit that does the seeing, not flesh, and the senses of Spirit are indestructible and perfect. My outlook is always positive, never negative because my vision is spiritual.” Is this not also being ‘present with the Lord’ and ‘walking in the Spirit’?

I am also grateful for this lesson on how to walk in the Spirit.
