The Christ-mission   Leave a comment

Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.

(The Bible KJV – John 14: 12)

Jesus established his church and maintained his mission on a spiritual foundation of Christ-healing. He taught his followers that his religion had a divine Principle, which would cast out error and heal both the sick and the sinning.

(Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy p136)

Images of Thought   Leave a comment

These readings are from the Bible (KJV) and from the textbook of Christian Science, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy.

Mortal mind sees what it believes as certainly as it believes what it sees.

(Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy p86: 29)

A material body only expresses a material and mortal mind. A mortal man possesses this body, and he makes it harmonious or discordant according to the images of thought impressed upon it. You embrace your body in your thought, and you should delineate upon it thoughts of health, not of sickness. You should banish all thoughts of disease and sin and of other beliefs included in matter.

(Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy p208: 25)

A Spiritual Perspective on Time and Ageing   2 comments

These readings are from the Bible (KJV) and the textbook of Christian Science, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy.

… beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.

(The Bible – II Peter 3: 8)

Never record ages. Chronological data are no part of the vast forever. Time-tables of birth and death are so many conspiracies against manhood and womanhood. Except for the error of measuring and limiting all that is good and beautiful, man would enjoy more than threescore years and ten and still maintain his vigor, freshness, and promise. Man, governed by immortal Mind, is always beautiful and grand. Each succeeding year unfolds wisdom, beauty, and holiness.

(Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy p246:17)

Don’t Be Deceived   Leave a comment

An interview with John Biggs. Click here to listen.

In this podcast John talks about how a new hobby of his – learning magic card tricks – gave him an insight into how spiritual healing happens. He explains that he leaned that in card tricks the audience believes they see something that wasn’t there or didn’t happen because they become distracted from the truth of what is happening by the performance. Healing in Christian Science is not magic but when we are distracted by an inharmonious situation we are blinded to the truth of what is really happening. Being alert to the distraction and focussing on the spiritual truth allows us to experience the true harmony of any situation. In this interview John explains this fully and gives examples of his own healings.
