4. One School of Truth
Divine Science excludes man-made systems & human opinions
Is there more than one school of Christian Science?
Christian Science is demonstrable. There can, therefore, be but one method in its teaching. Those who depart from this method forfeit their claims to belong to its school, and they become adherents of the Socratic, the Platonic, the Spencerian, or some other school. By this is meant that they adopt and adhere to some particular system of human opinions. Although these opinions may have occasional gleams of divinity, borrowed from that truly divine Science which eschews man-made systems, they nevertheless remain wholly human in their origin and tendency and are not scientifically Christian.                                  
                                  Science & Health ~ 112: 3-15

5. Wisdom ~ King Solomon
When Solomon ascended to the throne, he sought after God, and God gave him opportunity to ask for whatever he wanted. Solomon humbly acknowledged his inability to rule well and unselfishly asked God for wisdom. God gave him wisdom and wealth besides (1 Kings 3:4–15; 10:27). 

In fact, “King Solomon was greater in riches and wisdom than all the other kings of the earth”(1 Kings 10:23). God also gave Solomon peace on all sides during most of his reign (1 Kings 4:20–25).

6. Platform ~ Science of Being ~ Mary Baker Eddy       
32 Planks ~ Foundation for Divine Metaphysics
When the following platform is understood and the letter and the spirit bear witness, the infallibility of divine metaphysics will be demonstrated.
The deific supremacy
God is infinite, the only Life, substance, Spirit, or Soul, the only intelligence of the universe, including man. 
Eye hath neither seen God nor His image and likeness. Neither God nor the perfect man can be 
discerned by the material senses. The individuality of Spirit, or the infinite, is unknown, and thus a knowledge of it is left either to human conjecture or to the revelation of divine Science.

7. Christian Science vs Spiritualism ~ Mary Baker Eddy       
Scientific Improvisation
Mind is not necessarily dependent upon educational processes. It possesses of itself all beauty and poetry, and the power of expressing them. 
Spirit, God, is heard when the senses are silent. We are all capable of more than we do. The influence or action of Soul confers a freedom, which explains the phenomena of improvisation and the fervor of untutored lips. 
                 Science & Health ~ Chpt 4 ~ Pg 89:18-24


Belief ~ Man is Separated from God
Let us rid ourselves of the belief that man is separated from God, and obey only the divine Principle, Life and Love. Here is the great point of departure for all true spiritual growth.
                 Science & Health ~ Chpt 4 ~ Pg 91:5-8

8. As he Thinketh in His Heart, So is He       
No Miracles in Mind-methods
Because all the methods of Mind are not understood, we say the lips or hands must move in order to convey thought, that the undulations of the air convey sound, and possibly that other methods involve so-called miracles. The realities of being, its normal action, and the origin of all things are unseen to mortal sense; whereas the unreal and imitative movements of mortal belief, which would reverse the immortal modus and action, are styled the real. Whoever contradicts this mortal mind supposition of reality is called a deceiver, or is said to be deceived. Of a man it has been said, "As he thinketh in his heart, so is he;" hence as a man spiritually understandeth, so is he in truth.  
                 Science & Health ~ Chpt 8 ~ Pg 212:25

Had that sick man dominion over the fish in his stomach?
His want of control over "the fish of the sea" must have been an illusion, or else the Scriptures misstate man's power. That the Bible is true I believe, not only, but I demonstrated its truth when I exercised my power over the fish, cast out the sick man's illusion, and healed him. Thus it was shown that the healing action of Mind upon the body has its only explanation in divine metaphysics. As a man "thinketh in his heart, so is he." When the mortal thought, or belief, was removed, the man was well. 
                                   Other Writings ~ Misc 70:1-9
As he Thinketh in his Heart, so is He 
Eat thou not the bread of him that hath an evil eye, neither desire thou his dainty meats:
For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: Eat and drink, saith he to thee; but his heart is not with thee.                                
                                                   Bible ~ Prov 23:6-7

3. Scientific Statement of Being
Question. — What is the scientific statement of being?
Answer. — There is no life, truth, intelligence, nor substance in matter. All is infinite Mind and its infinite manifestation, for God is All-in-all. Spirit is 

immortal Truth; matter is mortal error. Spirit is the real and eternal; matter is the unreal and temporal. Spirit is God, and man is His image and likeness. Therefore man is not material; he is spiritual.

Leonardo Pisano Fibonacci (1170-1250) His genius was unexcelled in mathematics. Discovered the foundation of numbering & relationship between mathematics & every phase of life including humans, plants & animals. Prophesized major events based on mathematics and was punished for it.
Louis Agassiz
(1807-1873)

“Every great scientific truth goes through these 3 stages:

Steps from Rejection
to Acceptance


1.  First ~ People say it conflicts with the Bible.
2. Second ~ They say it has been discovered before.
3. Third ~ They say they had always believed it.” 

(1820-1910) Forced to leave or to be committed to an insane asylum. Notice to trusted friend to publish she was mentally murdered ~ betrayed & waited 35 years to publish.
