"…reaches his patient…"

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!

    “If the Scientist reaches his patient through divine Love, the healing work will be accomplished at one visit, and the disease will vanish into its native nothingness like dew before the morning sunshine.” By Mary Baker Eddy, Science and Health page 365

    “Reach:To extend; to stretch; to arrive at; to penetrate.
    Penetrate:To enter or pierce; to make way into. To affect the mind; to cause to feel.” Websters 1828 Dictionary

    Many times is has been brought out here that a resistant state of thinking blocks healing; Jesus healed all problems but not all people. For so long I focused on the “one visit” part of this citation but Mrs. Eddy writes, “If the Scientist reaches…” which I see means I have to be reached. What a travesty of Mrs. Eddy’s Science that the opposite of this concept has been perpetuated through false teachings that creates an entitled attitude expecting a magic wand one way experience. I am grateful for the correct understanding that is being taught here with practical application that will break down resistance and prepare thought to be receptive if you are willing to work for it and allow reformation to take place.

    “Will you open or close the door upon this angel visitant…” (S.& H. page 244)

    “…the reappearing of the spiritual idea, blind belief shuts the door upon it…” (S.& H. page 132)

    “Ignorance, pride, or prejudice closes the door to whatever is not stereotyped.” (S.& H. page 144)
