To Live Love   Leave a comment

Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another

Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer;

If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men.

Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.

Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head.

Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.

(The Bible KJV – Romans 12)

Tolerance   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 and are on the topic of Tolerance.

Have we not all one father? hath not one God created us? why do we deal treacherously every man against his brother,

(The Bible KJV – Malachi 2: 10)

If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?

(The Bible KJV – I John 4: 20)

Live Peaceably with All Men   Leave a comment

Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good.

Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another;

Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer;

Bless them which persecute you: bless, and curse not.

Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits.

Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men.

If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men.

(The Bible KJV – Romans 12: 9,10, 12, 14,18)

Overcoming Evil with Good   1 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 and are on the topic of Overcoming Evil with Good.

The only power of evil is to destroy itself. It can never destroy one iota of good. Every attempt of evil to destroy good is a failure, and only aids in peremptorily punishing the evil-doer. If we concede the same reality to discord as to harmony, discord has as lasting a claim upon us as has harmony.

(Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy 186:19)

If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us.

One Grand Brotherhood   2 comments

Giving does not impoverish us in the service of our Maker, neither does withholding enrich us.

(Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy p79: 31)

God gives the lesser idea of Himself for a link to the greater, and in return, the higher always protects the lower. The rich in spirit help the poor in one grand brotherhood, all having the same Principle, or Father; and blessed is that man who seeth his brother’s need and supplieth it, seeking his own in another’s good.

(Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy p518: 13)

Prayer for the World   1 comment

I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;

For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.

(The Bible – I Tim 2: 1, 2)

Be of One Mind   1 comment

… be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another;

Be of the same mind one toward another. If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men.

(The Bible – KJV: Romans 12: 2, 10, 16, 18)
