Eddy – Mary Baker Eddy 1875 Edition

Science & Health by Mary Baker Eddy

1875 Edition

The 1875 Edition was the first one and was one of the primary catalysts that enabled Mary Baker Eddy to found Christian Science. The revolutionary statements made in the book illustrates that it is one of the most important books ever written for all people because every single statement is provable as an exact “Science”, more exact than any other science known to mankind. Other so-called “sciences” require matter, time, or space in order to give it identity.

The time for thinkers has come; and the time for revolutions, ecclesiastic and social, must come.

Truth, independent of doctrines or time-honored systems, stands at the threshold of history. Contentment with the past, or the cold conventionality of custom, may no longer shut the door on science; though empires fall, “He whose right it is shall reign.” Ignorance of God should no longer be the stepping-stone to faith; understanding Him “whom to know aright is Life” is the only guaranty of obedience.

5 Prayer and Atonement Thoughts unuttered are not unknown to the infinite Intelligence comprehending them, to whom a desire is prayer, and no loss can occur from trusting God with our desires, to mould and make higher before they are evolved in action.  283 313 17 ODT PDF

7 Physiology BECAUSE science reverses the positions of personal sense, human reason acts slowly in accepting it, contesting every inch of ground it occupies, while error, self-complacent and applauded, sneers at the slow marches of Truth.  327 367 21 ODT PDF
8 Healing The sick The metaphysical requires the elucidations of spiritual sense, and personal sense cannot apprehend the explanations of soul; hence a mere classical education leaves Spirit much out of the question, and educates man only from the personal standpoint of matter.  368 456 47 ODT PDF
