The trial commences

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!

    The patient feels ill, ruminates, and the trial commences.” (S&H) An important point from the “Trial” we have learned here at Plainfield is to beware of rumination. One of the definitions of “ruminate” is “to chew again and again, what has already been chewed.”! Not a very pleasant thought or action! However, it can be easy, if one is not watchful, to go over and over again – thinking about how one is not feeling well and thinking about all the symptoms or to go over and over again the injustices one has had to endure etc. This kind of false and negative thinking will only put you in the court of error and as we can see from this story it is not a very good place to be! You will be tried and sentenced according to mortal mind’s unjust rules. Far better to stay away from ruminating about error and to “hold thought steadfastly to the enduring, the good and the true.” (S&H) This way you will remain in the court of Spirit and find your healing and your deliverance ever at hand!
