"A Tough Teacher's Alter Ego"

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 week’s Bible story about Ahab coveting and taking possession of Nabal’s vineyard reminded me of Mrs. Eddy’s spiritual interpretation of the commandment, “Thou shalt not covet,” which is “Thous shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.”

    Then I remembered a newscast from several years ago entitled “A Tough Teacher’s Alter Ego“, depicting a behavior completely opposite to that of Ahab and Jezebel, at the same time in complete alignment with Mrs. Eddy’s reiteration of the commandment above, as well as this week’s golden text: “It is more blessed to give than to receive” (Acts 20:35).

    Such a beautiful story and example. It brought tears to my eyes. Thank you, Parthens.
