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!

Thanks for clarifying the application of ‘anger’ and ‘disapproval.’ These nuances when not understood can seem like large contradictions and in the past when questioning about some of these instances never got satisfactory answers. How did I know they weren’t satisfactory? They didn’t ‘feel’ right which at the time I didn’t understand was actually ‘Spiritual intuition’ which I didn’t realize existed; had been taught forever out of the idea there IS God and He DOES communicate with us.

Heb. 1:9 “Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity;” Mrs. Eddy says is about the Christ. I still found it difficult to think it’s good for me to be ‘angry’ or ‘hate’ (since those were such a big part of my consciousness) the right things and I like this lesson on the proper ‘motives’ and ‘acts’ always are the defining point of all we do!!
