September 8 to September 14 – In Christian Science, substance means something real that lasts forever. It isn’t things you can touch, like money or objects, but God’s love, truth, and life that will never change.
What is real substance? In Christian Science, it’s not found in things we can touch, like money or objects—but in what lasts forever: God’s love, truth, and life. This week’s Bible Lesson on Substance shows us that true wealth and strength come from Spirit, not matter.
“Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.”
Hebrews 11:1
“All substance, intelligence, wisdom, being, immortality, cause, and effect belong to God.”
Mary Baker Eddy, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, p. 275:14–15
