How can we be “saved”?

How can we be “saved”?

“We believe that through the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ we shall be saved…”  

Acts 15:11 we.

 
“Our Master fully and finally demonstrated divine Science in his victory over death and the grave. Jesus’ deed was for the enlightenment of men and for the salvation of the whole world from sin, sickness, and death. Paul writes: “For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the [seeming] death of His Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.”   

Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, p 45:6-13.


Christian Scientists follow this tenet: “We acknowledge Jesus’ atonement as the evidence of divine, efficacious Love, unfolding man’s unity with God through Christ Jesus the Way-shower; and we acknowledge that man is saved through Christ, through Truth, Life, and Love as demonstrated by the Galilean Prophet in healing the sick and overcoming sin and death.”  

Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, p. 497:13-19.

We believe that anyone can be saved that follows and practices the laws of God and the teachings of Christ Jesus.  There are many ways that God saves individuals and groups of people.  As Noah and his family were saved from the great flood, people are saved from evil and unhappiness, suffering and death. Relying on God relieves us of a sense of personal responsibility and responsibility for others, and brings relief and joy.  God loves you as he loved Jesus Christ.  We are all loved sons and daughters of God.


“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.  For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.”  

John 3:16-17

“And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.” 

Acts 2:21

“When it is learned that disease cannot destroy life, and that mortals are not saved from sin or sickness by death, this understanding will quicken into newness of life.” 

Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, p. 426:16-19.

Christian Science Healing Testimonies

There are thousands of recorded healings in the Bible and in Christian Science publications.  Many Christian Science healings have occurred by simply reading the book Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures. This healing book is Eddy’s main body of work and a companion to the Bible. It contains sections on Genesis and Revelation, and is part of the Christian Science Weekly Bible Lesson. It also has a chapter called Fruitage, consisting of healing testimonies.

You will find a lot of love and support for your spiritual journey at any of our Churches or Reading Rooms. Churches hold services twice weekly, including a healing testimony meeting on Wednesdays.

Reading rooms are open varied hours according to location. We love visitors and are available to answer questions, and offer resources such as Bible study lessons and other publications from the Christian Science Publishing Society.

Please email us with questions at contact@prayerthatheals.org or call your local church, reading room or Christian Science Practitioner.
