Bible Note: I didn't ask a question. You may think that Science and Health is a help for you, but it is the primary Scripture of a non-Christian cult known as Christian Science. The cult was founded by Mary Baker Eddy in the 19th century, and it is basically the re-hashing of a heresy known as gnosticism that plagued the early church. Rather that helping one understand the Scriptures, Eddy assigned esoteric, "hidden" meaning to the texts. As you have been pointing out, the plain meaning of the text is obscured by Eddy's commentary saying everything literal in Scripture "represents" something else. According to Christian Scientists, it is impossible to understand the "true meaning of the Bible" apart from this book (hence its claim to be the "key to the Scriptures"). Science and Health denies the reality of evil; Jesus Christ and the Bible do not. Sin is rebellion against a holy and just God, not "error." Our nature is that we are enemies of God and predisposed to violating His will (Romans 5; Ephesians 2:1-7); we are not victims of "wrong thinking" as Eddy asserted. I encourage you to check out the following Web sites for a Biblical response to Science and Health to see how it leads a person away from the truth of the Bible: http://www.watchman.org/profile/ChrSciProfile.htm http://www.equip.org/free/DC605.htm May God bless you by enlightening you with His truth. --Joe! |
