Understanding God

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!

    Science and Health 12. 3 : 12-16
    The Divine Being must be reflected by man, — else man is not the image and likeness of the patient, tender, and true, the One “altogether lovely;” but to understand God is the work of eternity, and demands absolute consecration of thought, energy, and desire.

    In thinking about what Mrs. Eddy wrote I took from the word “consecration” that I must dedicate my self to the service and worship of God with all my energy and desire. This must be done ABSOLUTELY. I have come to realize that this is the work of eternity, but Mrs. Eddy tells us to get started and work each day. I used to think that understanding would come all at once …. not so. But, “our patient, tender and true, the One ‘altogether lovely'” will guide us along the way.

    And thank you for this Lesson Sermon.
