Time has a way of distorting that which is not tended to properly, even in religions, therefore I am taking a bit of time to reexamine the tenets of Christian Science, calculated as rules of guidance instead of dogmatic regulations. The fourth tenet states:

“We acknowledge Jesus’ atonement as the evidence of divine healing Love, unfolding our unity with God through Christ Jesus the Way-shower. We acknowledge that our salvation is through Christ, through Truth, Life, and Love, as demonstrated by the Galilean Prophet in healing the sick and overcoming sin and death.”

My comments:

  • Evidence of separation from God disappears as evidence of unity (at-one-with) is realized.
  • Christ Jesus was aware of an unbroken relationship with God, Life.
  • We have something to learn from Christ Jesus, along with other great spiritual doers.
  • Poignant healing is accomplished through Love, Truth, and Life.
  • Spirituality is deliverance from mortality.
