Reply To: "Wonderfully Sustained by Truth" Part 1

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 read Science and Health, p. 189, and we ceased to concern ourselves about our safety but left that entirely with God.” (line from testimony)

Words on page 189 for 1900 S.& H. 183rd edition
“The vapid fury of mortal mind, expressed in earthquake, wind, wave, lightning, fire, bestial ferocity, shows this so-called mind to be self-destructive. They counterfeit divine justice, and are called, feit force in the Scriptures, ” the anger of the Lord.” Really they signify His justice, in the self-destruction of error, and point to its opposite, the strength and permanency of Truth, whose supremacy is ever asserting itself. Christian Science brings to light Truth and its supremacy, universal harmony, the entireness of God, Good, and the nothingness of evil.”

“There is no vapid fury of mortal mind — expressed in earthquake, wind, wave, lightning, fire, bestial ferocity — and this so-called mind is self-destroyed. The manifestations of evil, which counterfeit divine justice, are called in the Scriptures, “The anger of the Lord.” In reality, they show the self destruction of error or matter and point to matter’s opposite, the strength and permanency of Spirit.Christian Science brings to light Truth and its supremacy, universal harmony, the entireness of God,good, and the nothingness of evil.”
