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!

Hi Susanne,

Yes its a lovely feeling.

One thing which I found hard to deal with when I first came to CS was that this isn´t a “journey”´. One thing which makes CS different fro Buddhism and the New age movement is they talk a lot about journeysand even people who have been healed talk about change using material time of “before” and “after”. This is good to mark our thought changes, however it can impede us. To think of a journey, is a bit like waiting for a destination to arrive and the beauty of our religion is that we have already reached our destination. Its here and now and its life in God. Right here, at this moment, and theres no necessary wait, second birth or evolution to reach it. We simply need to embrace our new identity in God, our All.

ITS NOW Isn´t it wonderful?


Love is the liberator.
