Yielding to the Infinite

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, p. 256 : 1 (The)-8
    The finite must yield to the infinite. Advancing to a higher plane of action, thought rises from the material sense to the spiritual, from the scholastic to the inspirational, and from the mortal to the immortal. All things are created spiritually. Mind, not matter, is the creator. Love, the divine Principle, is the Father and Mother of the universe, including man.

    The word that struck me is MUST. The 1828 Webster Dictionary defines “must” in part as that which is “essential to the character” and “expresses both moral and physical necessity.” This rising from a “material sense to the spiritual” is an absolute must and since coming to our Plainfield Christian Science Church, Independent I feel and understand what I never knew was possible before…step by step. Thank you, Plainfield!
