09/16/2015 08:32"One infinite God, good..."The last passage in S&H (340: 16-29) is one of my favorites. This time reading it, though, I spent a bit more time with the latter part and expanded it:
One infinite God, good, unifies men and nations
One infinite God, good, constitutes the brotherhood of man
One infinite God, good, ends wars
One infinite God, good, fulfill the Scripture, "Love thy neighbor as thyself"
One infinite God, good, annihilates pagan and Christian idolatry
One infinite God, good, annihilates whatever is wrong in social, civil, criminal, political, and religious codes
One infinite God, good, equalizes the sexes
One infinite God, good, annuls the curse on man and leaves nothing that can sin, suffer, be punished or destroyed.
"The First Commandment is my favorite text. It demonstrates Christian Science." Mrs. Eddy says. This gives much food for thought!
