Reply To: Mrs. Eddy and the Sermon on the Mount

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!

Mrs. Eddy emphasizes the importance of this Sermon time and again in many of her other writings. She states in Miscellaneous Writings page 12 “Every man and woman should be to-day a law to himself, herself, – a law of loyalty to Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount.” And in Message from 1901 page 11, “To my sense the Sermon on the Mount, read each Sunday without comment and obeyed throughout the week, would be enough for Christian practice.”
