"the test of Science"

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!

    “All forms of error support the false conclusions that there is more than one Life…. Such theories are evidently erroneous. They can never stand the test of Science.” (S&H, p. 204)

    Test — a large vessel in which metals are melted for trial and refinement; hence, any critical trial and examination. (Webster 1828)
    The teaching I’ve received here in Plainfield Church, and the help of practitioner, has helped me to realize that any error that comes to me, is merely a test to try my “metal” — my faith in God and understanding of Christian Science. It is meant to melt any hardness of my heart, examine and purify my thought, strengthen my spiritual resolve, and bring me closer to God. As I steadfastly hold this attitude of thought — with God’s help — any and every error “can never stand the test of Science” — never stand against the Truth. Thank you for this encouraging and powerful Lesson-Sermon.
