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!

    Being is not evolved. The changeless, eternal, and perfect state of being is reality. Inharmony and variableness is not going on anywhere but in mortal mind. Seemingly.
    But I do it all the time! I observe what seems to be going on outside of me, an unreal, horrible world, with lots of horrible people in it. It is presented to us continually, whether by looking at Facebook, the BBC, the C.S. Monitor or whatever. A real horror story, relentless evil and stupidity.
    I know that the man I see is the man I am, so in the process of absorbing in my consciousness al this garbage, I tend to become a discordant mortal too. I have to realize that the inharmony is not going on anywhere except in the deluded mortal consciousness. The suggestion of an evil, material and evolving world is pure animal magnetism, which is jargon, meaning it is a hypnotic suggestion trying to become “me,” to become my consciousness.
    Milton Simon, in an article titled “Which One,” explains it very clearly. “One can change what appears as an outward manifestation by changing his thinking. The phenomenon it sees as the world is occurring only within the seeming human consciousness itself, for it sees its own thoughts. The error one sees in another is but his own sense of that one, and it is only that sense and never the person that needs to be reformed. The consciousness illumined with the Christ ,Truth, is an unfailing remedy, for enlightenment precludes the acceptance of erring belief.”
    To the “world,” this is nonsense. Only a small, crazy bunch of Christian Science students know that this “world” itself is nonsense.

    We should know that evil proceedeth not from God, good, but is a false belief of the personal senses, and if we deny the claims of these senses and recognize man as governed by God, Spirit, the temptation to sin will disappear. (Misc.198.)

    The Christ never was and never could be aware of even one of the myriad suggestions of the carnal mind. Because the divine Mind has no awareness of sin, disease and death, this triad of errors can never be your experience. “Such PREPOSTEROUS DELUSIONS as accident, sin, disease, old age, and death.”
