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!

This is why it is so important to have a correct understanding of what God is. Mrs. Eddy states in S&H (258): “We know no more of man as the true divine image and likeness, than we know of God.”

I find that when I take the time to really get something from the lesson first thing in the morning, I have more confidence and dominion during the day. I can discern the false from the true more easily and discard the false more readily. I also find it true that when I have the right concept of God foremost in my thought, I can trust in it, receive its instruction, as we are told in Proverbs.

This lesson is full of the practical instruction for trusting in the substantial things of Spirit, God, rather than believing the false supposition that there is substance in matter.

We can be truly grateful to Mrs. Eddy for bringing these Biblical treasures to life and pointing the way to a consistent and disciplined way of thinking and living.
