Oneness

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!

    Absolute oneness with Mind is our only way to escape! Escape what? Escape that false state of being, or consciousness, which is conscious of all those things the divine Mind is not conscious of.

    Mind is not just intelligence, or brain action, Mind stands for Soul, and Love. In the German and Dutch Bible translations Mind is “Gemut”, which has connotations of interior, heart, bosom. God, in His hearts of hearts, knows nothing of all the error and evil that seems to be our world, the so-called reality of the human, mortal mind. I think I will have to grow until I also will know it no longer. Because I think that the divine Mind is infinity, eternity, All-in-all, reality or heaven, eternal Life. As long as I fail to be one with the divine Mind, I will remain living in an uncreated, unreal thralldom of dark suffering and endless dying. Jesus came to save us from ourselves, and share with us his Mind. The article “Oneness” by Bicknell Young explains it very well, and I think I finally start to understand it more.
