Awake, Awake

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!

    GOLDEN TEXT: EPHESIANS 5 : 14

    “Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.”

    In the Lesson this week from John 11, both Mary and Martha, sisters of Lazarus, both loved Jesus but even they did not understand what he had been saying to them ….. and he groaned in himself. Then he lifted his eyes, gave thanks, and called Lazarus from death. My prayer for myself and others is to Awake..Awake listen and obey.
    Mrs. Eddy has given us the Little Book to guide us with the Bible .. more we cannot ask .. it is right here just as it was with Jesus if we pay attention.

    Websters 1828 Dictionary
    Awake: To bestir, revive or rouse from a state of inaction; to be invigorated with new life; as, the mind awakes from its stupidity. To rouse from spiritual sleep.(Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light. Ephesians 5:14.) (Awake to righteousness. 1 Corinthians 15:34.)

    “…awakening from this mortal dream, or illusion, will bring us into health, holiness, and immortality. This awakening is the forever coming of Christ, the advanced appearing of Truth, which casts out error and heals the sick.” – Citation 4 from Lesson, by Mary Baker Eddy, page 230

    Thank you to the Lesson writer.
