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!

Yes, it is wonderful that we can read all the good stuff from the early workers! for free! Also “The Bookmark” sells those books. Dr. John Todd, CSB, wrote that the belief of material, personal sense is the only devil there is. He was taught by Adam Dickey. Mrs. Eddy, I believe, wrote about “the sense of self, and the self of sense.” Love, the divine Mind, must be our self is we reflect Him/Her. “In Thy presence, there is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures evermore.” I’ve found that all the reading and studying on its own does not necessarily lead us to God, it is God’s nearness, Love’s presence and Allness that was needed.
