Show CHRIST1ANSCIENCE "Man" is the subject of the lesson-sermon in all Churohes of Christ, Scientist, on Sunday, September Sep-tember 3. The Golden Text is: "God created creat-ed man in his own image, in the image of God created he him" (Genesis 1:27). (Selections from the Bible include the following: "Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright: for the end of that man is peace (Psalms 37:37). Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect" (Matthew 5:48). Included as correlative passages are the following from "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" Scrip-tures" by Mary Baker Eddy: Man's true consciousness is in the mental, not in any bodily or personal per-sonal likeness to Spirit (p. 302). Man is the expression of God's being (p. 470). The great truth in the Science of being, that the real man was, is, and ever shall be perfect, per-fect, is incontrovertible, for if man is the image, reflection, of God, he is neither inverted nor subverted, but upright and Godlike" (p. 200). |
