unreality I suppose

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!

    I was reading some of my notes, I do not recall where I read the following, but it is the truth.
    The same unlovely traits of character and disposition; the same calamities and tragedies, the same limitations, which have been “the world” down the ages, are our present world today. And they will continue to be our world until we learn that the universal false beliefs, the false mass-consciousness or mental practice, the mass-mesmerism, which claims to be our individual consciousness, is unreal. All false consciousness, being impersonal, can be overcome.

    We reform the world only as we overcome ourselves, our thinking, our inner-being. The horrible world of hate, crime, death, disease and sin only appears because of our ignorance of the ONE Mind.

    As long as I sense error, evil, of any kind, it must be handled as impersonal mass-mesmerism; as ignorance of God, Truth, and Love.
    The Christ is that conscious at-one-ment with Truth and Love. That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh in the world. And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, …..
    We should not cherish a reality which God does not know nor could cause.

    Thank you Jacob. This is a wonderful explanation – error is always mesmerism, and we can all awake to the Truth of being. What you wrote certainly goes along with our discussions this week end (Bible Study and Roundtable) on “overcoming” and being able to see and comprehend now what is meant by the New Jerusalem. “This spiritual consciousness is therefore a present possibility.” (S&H)

    Thank you both! Had I not come to Plainfield Christian Science Church, Independent I would still be operating only in the human worry mind. But, I am learning and praying about real consciousness as you have described. I am very grateful to be waking up!
