The serpent beguiled me

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!

    When thinking about this statement, I realized that we have “serpents” today. What does it mean to beguile? Webster 1828 dictionary says:
    BEGUI’LE, To delude; to deceive; to impose on by artifice or craft.

    The medical says that we need this medication. If we don’t have it we will be sick and die. This is deceiving us. God made man in His image and likeness, perfect. It says to have a good body we need to exercise, go to the gym. God proportions me. If you don’t have a surgical procedure you will look old. There is no age. To be happy you need a new car, or a certain line of clothing. Obedience to God makes man happy. Think about all the advertisements. All of them are material beliefs and the real answers are in God!

    Thank God that in this church we are learning to expose these human beliefs and destroy them.
