Study the Platform XXII of XXXII

;

Hi, this is Marsha from Loveheals.us
Come study the platform with me from Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy in the chapter called Science of Being, page 330. We’ll take one part of the platform each day for the next 32 days. We’ll read the words Mrs. Eddy has given us. Then, I’ll share with you some ideas that have come to me and then you get to share your ideas in the blog online in the comment area below.
If you know anyone who might like to participate in this exercise, please forward this to them to have them subscribe to my website.
If you miss some, you can catch up by going to the menu at the top
called “Study the Platform“.

XXII. (The real manhood) Immortal man was and is God’s image or idea, even the infinite expression of infinite Mind, and immortal man is coexistent and coeternal with that Mind. He has been forever in the eternal Mind, God; but infinite Mind can never be in man, but is reflected by man. The spiritual man’s consciousness and individuality are reflections of God. They are the emanations of Him who is Life, Truth, and Love. Immortal man is not and never was material, but always spiritual and eternal.  S&H 336: 9

 Marsha: The words “The real manhood” conjures up in my thought the divine expression of God, Mind, which can only include the real qualities and characteristics of Life, Truth and Love.  This does not include being so body conscious that we entertain material sense testimony.  I especially love to know that we are coexistent with God, so man can only express that which is real and nothing else.  Each of us are always at one with our loving Father-Mother, God, good, our Mind.  We can only know what God knows about us – this is wisdom.  Nothing can hide or cover up or mask or separate nor vitiate us from rising up in the “strength of Spirit to resist all that is unlike good…(which is) the ability and power divinely bestowed on man.”  S&H 393: 13
