March 17 to March 23 – In Christian Science, matter is understood as the opposite of Spirit, or God. Christian Science teaches that true reality is spiritual and governed by God’s laws, rather than material conditions.
…we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen:
for the things which are seen are temporal;
but the things which are not seen are eternal.
II Corinthians 4:18
“Jesus taught but one God, one Spirit, who makes man in the image and likeness of Himself, — of Spirit, not of matter.”
Mary Baker Eddy, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures
This Bible Lesson on matter is the focal point of Sunday services at Christian Science Churches in Southern California and around the world. You are always welcome. Church services are a quiet time for prayer and reflection, and we have Sunday School classes for children and teens. Each church has a Christian Science Reading Room where you can read or purchase the weekly Bible Lesson in a number of formats, including an easy-to-read full-text booklet and an audio edition.
You are invited to listen to the weekly Bible Lesson on matter, inspiring podcasts with testimonies of healing in English and Spanish, and a daily lift (weekdays) on our Southern California phone line. Call any time day or night and be motivated, uplifted and inspired whether you are on the go or want a quiet moment.
