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. I often find it very helpful to be reminded that I belong to God, that we all belong to God. It puts us all on equal footing in God’s sight. No differences due to education, background, color, gender, etc. in the eye’s of God.

So, if I want to know who and what I am, the only way I will do that is to know more about God, in whose image and likeness I am made. Mrs. Eddy writes in S&H (p. 90), “At present we know not what man is, but we certainly shall know this when man reflects God.” Also, on page 258: “We know no more of man as the true divine image and likeness, than we know of God.”

Thus the importance of learning as much as we can of who and what God is. This is why I enjoy the Bible Study and Roundtable so much. It helps me to discover who we all are.
