Reply To: Sin known?

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!

It helps me to think of always being “plugged in” to God. (To me, the visual of an electrical outlet helps!) God is always communicating to me His love and wisdom, but if not careful, if not watching my thinking, I could easily be “unplugged”, distracted, “unplugging” myself as if no one is looking, and choose to “do my own thing”… maybe take a little break….maybe even with a little footnote, “I’ll get good with God later.”

We always take ourselves away from God, even though so many believe that God forsakes us. This is where “praying without ceasing” comes in, which can be thought of as focusing on God (a joy!), knowing He is all good, and striving to see that anything other than good is NOT from God and therefore is an illusion to be corrected with right thinking which brings us always back to God: “Thou shalt have no other Gods before me”… “not my will but thine be done.”

And if people don’t know the good news? It’s why we are told to “preach the Gospel to every creature.” Hmm… am I doing that? Is it a sin if I’m not?
