"Obedient to the Mind that makes them"

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!

    “The universe is filled with spiritual ideas, which He evolves, and they are obedient to the Mind that makes them.” (S&H, p. 295)

    Obedient – submissive to authority; yielding compliance with commands; performing what is required, or abstaining from what is forbid. (Webster’s 1828)

    This powerful statement from Science and Health was often given to us by our teacher to work with, and can also apply to our nation. Our nation, one nation under God, is peopled with God’s ideas, and they are obedient to the Mind that makes them. They are obedient to the one Law, “divine Principle, Love, underlying, overlying, and encompassing all true being.” (S&H 496:18) Therefore, they express order, harmony, unity, wisdom, justice, and brotherly love. There is no other mind apart from God to incite hatred, racism, violence, or destruction. This ever-present, ever-active, all enforced and all-encompassing Law cannot be avoided, evaded, nor abrogated. God, Mind, is the only Law, the only Cause and Creator.
