"Praise the Lord"

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!

    “O praise the LORD, all ye nations: praise him, all ye people.” (Ps.117:1)

    Webster’s 1828 Dictionary defines “praise” as “to value; to extol, or lift up; to express gratitude for; to honor, magnify, glorify.”
    The word “praise” is repeated five times in this Lesson, and involves not just a verbal activity of “lip-service,” but requires demonstration. Therefore, it is significant that the Lesson ends with the best way to “praise the Lord”: “Truth is revealed. It needs only to be practised.” (S&H 174:11)
