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 this topic. I’m so grateful for all that I’m learning in this church about seeing the Christ in every man–not just someone living next door: it includes the world. The Webster’s 1828 Dictionary includes in the definition of neighbor: “One of the human race; any one that needs our help, or to whom we have an opportunity of doing good. Luke x” Also, “a country that is near.” No one is left out. What could be greater? As you said, “practicing our greatest command.”
