Bible Lesson 3/19/17

BIBLE, MATTER, CHRISTIAN SCIENCE


Matter:

And ye shall know that I am in the midst of Israel, and that I am the Lord your God, and none else:  and my people shall never be ashamed (Joel 2).

vanity--What iniquity have your fathers found in me, that they are gone far from me, and have walked after vanity, and are become vain? (Jeremiah 2).

ark--When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the spirit of the Lord shall lift up a standard against him (Isaiah 59).

rock--We must forsake the foundation of material systems, however time-honored, if we would gain the Christ as our only Saviour (Eddy, 1906, p. 326).

rebellion--Jesus saith unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk.  And immediately the man was made whole, and took up his bed, and walked (John 5).

law--In proportion as matter loses to human sense all entity as man, in that proportion does man become its master (Eddy, 1906, p. 369).

camera--The crude creations of mortal thought must finally give place to the glorious forms which we sometimes behold in the camera of divine Mind, when the mental picture is spiritual and eternal. . . .  Matter disappears under the microscope of Spirit (Eddy, 1906, p. 264).
