GOLDEN RULE Do unto others, as you would have others do unto you. This is part of #6 of the important points of the TENETS of CHRISTIAN SCIENCE. Do we really want to be living A LIFE of STEALING? This is the opposite of the life of Mary Baker Eddy, Christ Jesus & every sincere student of Christian Science. There is NO EXAMPLE of anyone being successful in Christian Science HEALING who LIVES A LIFE of STEALING.
1. Mary Baker Eddy emphasizes the need to transform mortal thought. In other words, we need to examine consciousness from a material standpoint which has been based upon compounding lie upon lie for our entire lives. 2. It is a gradual process to transform it from matter to Spirit, from evil to good, from mortal mind to immortal mind, from material sense of life to a spiritual sense of life & Soul whereby we are depending upon seeing, hearing, feeling, tasting & smelling from a material sense standpoint to its reality, which is spiritual sense. ~ See
3. When we think about utilizing our spiritual senses for identification, the items listed in #1 & 2 above are the kinds of terms we need to be thinking of if we want to be in the sanctuary of Spirit, where we're looking through lens of Spirit. 4. INFINITE PROGRESSION IS CONRETE BEING ~ We should continue to have infinite progression as long as we are on the path of Truth. If we follow the path of Truth then we are NOT blocking our progress. 5. Are we looking for the real Truth? If YES, then we will be able to stay on that path of Infinite progression, because it means that we are only going to let into our consciousness things that are true about God, man, the relationship between God & man.
6. We can eliminate any kind of a blockage from a belief of its existence, if we stay on the path of Truth. 7. Genesis 1:1 ~ IN THE BEGINNING ~ Mary Baker Eddy defines BEGINNING as being the ONLY record of spiritual creation. 8. Genesis 1:1 to Genesis 2:3 ~ God says, Let us make man in our image & after our likeness. And then it says, God made man in our image & after our likeness. 9. In other words, we cannot benefit from the ~ TRUE RECORD OF CREATION ~ unless we open our thought to it. We have to let the Truth ~ THAT GOD MADE MAN ~ into our consciousness in order to get the benefit from this fact. God did it but we cannot benefit from it unless we permit this fact into our individual consciousness. This is an individual choice. Each one must be ~ WORKING OUT THEIR OWN INDIVIDUAL SALVATION. 10. Mary Baker Eddy says ~ Are you able to focus no matter what comes your way? The formula is easy if we are going to focus on the Truth. Every thought, speech & action that we take ~ NO MATTER WHAT WE ARE DOING ~ we need to make sure that we are focusing on the true reality by living it.
11. CULTIVATE A LIFE OF GIVING ~ This is a requirement to keep from blocking progress from our spiritual progression. 12. PERFECT EXAMPLES OF A LIFE OF GIVING ~ Mary Baker Eddy & Christ Jesus were both perfect examples. They both cultivated a life of giving & never did any taking from any of God's ideas. 13. THE ONLY TAKING TO DO ~ Expose evil & take away the FALSE PERCEPTION of being real. 14. CULTIVATE A LIFE OF GIVING ~ If you do not do this, then you automatically LIVING A LIFE OF TAKING. The average person wants something for nothing. They are always looking for something that is FREE. When they do this, they are blocking their own spiritual progress. They are blocking themselves from spiritual healing. They do not realize that they are LIVING A LIFE OF STEALING. 15. INTEGRITY ~ NOTHING is ever FREE. WE are always giving up something, when we think we are getting something for free. It may be the most important part of our character which is INTEGRITY, HONESTY. We are TRASHING OUR OWN CHARACTER trying to get something for nothing.
