Book excerpt: Whether you're a Christian Scientist searching for answers or a former follower still struggling to let go of the difficult and confusing teachings of Christian Science, this book can help you on your search for truth. In these ten intensely personal narratives, former Christian Scientists bravely recount their journey out of the religion and into authentic, biblical faith in Jesus Christ. Each chapter addresses a different theme, shining light on theological inconsistencies taught by Mary Baker Eddy in her book Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures. These themes include matter, Jesus Christ, contagion, prayer, and sin. With reflection questions, pastoral teaching, related Bible verses, and a guiding letter from the author, each story navigates common obstacles and paves the way for a deeper understanding of the Christian faith. For those yearning to find truth, there is hope to be found here.

Download or read book God s Perfect Child written by Caroline Fraser and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2018-06-19 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Pulitzer Prize-winning author and former Christian Scientist Caroline Fraser comes the first unvarnished account of one of America's most controversial and little-understood religious movements. Millions of Americans – from Lady Astor to Ginger Rogers to Watergate conspirator H. R. Haldeman – have been touched by the Church of Christ, Scientist. Founded by Mary Baker Eddy in 1879, Christian Science was based on a belief that intense contemplation of the perfection of God can heal all ills – an extreme expression of the American faith in self-reliance. In this unflinching investigation, Caroline Fraser, herself raised in a Scientist household, shows how the Church transformed itself from a small, eccentric sect into a politically powerful and socially respectable religion, and explores the human cost of Christian Science's remarkable rise. Fraser examines the strange life and psychology of Mary Baker Eddy, who lived in dread of a kind of witchcraft she called Malicious Animal Magnetism. She takes us into the closed world of Eddy's followers, who refuse to acknowledge the existence of illness and death and reject modern medicine, even at the cost of their children's lives. She reveals just how Christian Science managed to gain extraordinary legal and Congressional sanction for its dubious practices and tracks its enormous influence on new-age beliefs and other modern healing cults. A passionate exposé of zealotry, God's Perfect Child tells one of the most dramatic and little-known stories in American religious history.

Download or read book The Full Deck of Christian Science written by Rolf A. F. Witzsche and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-05-07 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PRELIMINARY VERSION: This is about 'deep' Christian Science - the full scope of the Science of Christ-healing discovered in 1866 by Mary Baker Eddy, which she developed and expanded over a span of 44 years. She is reported to have once said: "I am going to write a book that will change the world." This, she did indeed. By her dedication and achievements she became, one of the greatest scientific geniuses of her time. Her stature as a world-historic person reflects a number of pioneering achievements that she is widely honored for, which have uplifted the face of civilization in numerous respects. She is noted for her dedication to advancing the status of women; for ennobling Christianity with a scientific dimension; for reinstating its nearly lost element of Christ-healing; and for her discovering and founding of Christian Science. Yes, she did write a book that changed the world, a book of science, of spiritual divine Science. She is known today as the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, and the author of its textbook, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, which she had constantly revised and upgraded in the course of more than 400 editions of the book, keeping the book in line with her own scientific development over the space of its 35 years in her hands since its first publication in 1875. In celebrating the 150th Anniversary of her discovery of Christian Science in 1866, it is appropriate that the historic dimension of Mary Baker Eddy be enriched with a specific focus on the scientific aspects of her work. This is the purpose of this book. She has accomplished enormously on this front, far more than what society gives her credit for, most of which remains generally unknown. If a historian had asked her in her time what she had most wished for in her life, she might have answered that she had labored for 44 years to give to humanity the clearest sense possible of the "acme" of Christian Science., which means that all other accomplishments where subsequent to it and reflect it. This book reaches deep in to the details of her discoveries and her scientific work to make her discoveries accessible.

Download or read book Christian Science and the Ordinary Man written by Walter S. Harris and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-18 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christian Science and the Ordinary Man: A Discussion of Some of the Teachings of Mary Baker Eddy, Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science I should add to this foreword the statement that while this book has in its title the words Christian Science, the author is one; who believes that all mankind are on the way to final and conscious unity with God. Many theories of truth held by men have elements of real truth in them, which elements of real truth, as the leaven which leavens the whole lump, will, the author believes, eventually lead their followers through experience out of those portions of their belief which are untrue and into the one way of truth which is that trod by Christ Jesus. This book, in addition to being a discussion of Christian Science, is in part an attempt to set forth the essential true elements existing in some other beliefs, to'the end that a starting point may be found for greater brotherhood among all churches and beliefs, a basis in Christ for the Brotherhood of Man.
