Revisiting the details behind a religion helps removes obstacles.

In the 19th century, Mary Baker Eddy founded a religion for Christian Scientists, and in the Science and Health text, she answered the question as to whether or not Christian Scientists have any religious policy or creed. Eddy said, “No, if by that term is meant doctrinal beliefs.” She then proceeded to give 6 important points, or tenets, of divine Science which I will comment on during my next set of blogs. This process has clarified and validated the rules of divine Science which in turn has exposed spiritual benefits.

Tenet #2: “We acknowledge and respect one supreme and infinite God. We acknowledge God’s child, one Christ; the Holy spirit or divine Counselor; and man and woman in God’s image and likeness.”

My comments:

  • Human beings are not the center of the universe.
  • We confess to a higher power
  • We identify people as in the likeness of Love, Principle, all-knowing God.
