Act of being united

“Adhesion, cohesion, and attraction are properties of Mind.” (S&H) The definitions of these first three words are interesting and are as follows: Adhesion – “act of being united by growth, union”; Cohesion – “The acting of sticking together, being united by natural attraction”; Attraction – “the power, principle or tendency of bodies to unite.” (Webster 1828 Dictionary) These forces of God are ever at work uniting that which is Good and expelling and destroying all the false beliefs in evil. This is a good Truth to know and to apply for your body, home, church, community, nation, world… Only God’s laws and principles are in operation! Error can’t trick us into believing otherwise.

Re: Act of being united

Thanks! I find that quote helpful also in handling the belief of false appetites.

Re: Act of being united

I couldn't help but think of Einstein's great discoveries in physics. He didn't experiment, or measure things. He discovered higher ideas through inspiration. He challenged all the established so-called laws of physics and discovered, through inspiration, that matter is not a real thing, but the result of forces, which he spent his life trying to explain. His career was a practical example of "resolving things into thoughts."

Mrs. Eddy, several thousand miles away, had already discovered that these forces belong wholly to divine Mind and are inherent in this Mind. When Einstein settled in Princeton near the end of his career, he read the Christian Science text book and acknowledged Mrs. Eddy's discovery as the "pure science." He is quoted as having once said, "Science without religion is blind and religion without science is lame."

Re: Act of being united

Isn't it a relief to know that the so called natural forces are really spiritual and governed only by God? I like cohesion best because that is Plainfield Christian Science Church.

Re: Act of being united

Thank you. And today in Collectanea page 98, I read, "Adhesion and cohesion are qualities of Mind and work together for good. In weather conditions these properties cannot be reversed to harm or retard man." (Mary Baker Eddy) Our God is Good and all that He creates works together for only good.
