May 2008 –
In January when the Quarterly Lessons were Life, Truth, Love, we presented them
in a combined fashion thus featuring "The Holy Trinity". We followed this in
Feburary from the point of Life, in March the point of Truth , in April from
the point of Love. And now, in May, we lead with a selection from William
Walter titled: "The Unholy Trinity," and some further study of Genesis 2 by a
Doorly pupil. In June we will return to our original format, being, each week a
separate Subject, based on the Subjects Mrs. Eddy gave for the Quarterly.

| Letter 12 - Helen M. Wright |
|
In the late 1930's Mr. John W. Doorly began to see the
system Mrs. Eddy incorporated in the textbook. Max Kappeler followed, writing
many books. Among the other great thinkers supporting John Doorly's findings
have been Gordon Brown, Peggy Brook, Lawrence Sinton and Irene Oppenheim, to
name a few. They have gone far in explaining the divine "system" Mary Baker
Eddy incorporated in Science and Health.
When I talked with Mr. Doorly in 1949, I prosaically
said, "God is All." He said, "You're close, lady but no cigar!" No, I'm sure
those were not his exact words, but that's what he meant. Then he explained,
"Certainly God is All, but if I said, music is all, or mathematics is all, what
good would that do you? In each case you have to learn their system. In music
you have to learn the seven notes and how they operate through tone, rhythm,
melody and harmony. And in math you have to learn the ten digits and how they
operate through addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Only then
can you demonstrate the infinite subjects of music or mathematics."
To that I said, "Amen."
The above are excerpts from Helen Wright's Letter 12 at a
future date we will post the second half of this letter.

| Acknowledgements of Truth |
|
Acknowledgements of Truth attributed to Mary Baker Eddy:
"Overcoming age is not resuming our youth: it is thought
going into new paths that history has never recorded."
"Every time you declare you are perfect in God, there goes
through your body a health giving power."
"I tell you the truth when I say there is only one Source of
all good-God. The conscious recognition and acceptance of this fact,
acknowledged by every activity of the mind, not two or three times a day, but
every few moments all the day long-no matter what the outer self is doing, and
this maintained, will enable anyone to express his freedom and dominion over
all things human."
"When the thinker is lost in the eminence of Mind the
healing takes place."
"To declare that you are well is the exact truth; you are
not flesh but rather the ray of divine Light that shining upon flesh makes it
appear alive. This you is spiritual."
"Our salvation is through Love. Call God Love always and
bend all your efforts toward achieving perfect love in thought, word and deed.
This is the way. All is won through it."
"I saw before me the awful conflict, the red sea and the
wilderness; but I pressed on through faith in God, trusting Truth, the strong
deliverer, to guide me into the land of Christian Science, where fetters fall
and the rights of man are fully known and acknowledged."
"… that an acknowledgement of the perfection of the
infinite Unseen confers a power nothing else can." |
