| founder of christian science: Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures Mary Baker Eddy, 2020-12-13 Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures is the most important work of Mary Baker Eddy, founder of The Church of Christ, Scientist. Along with the Bible, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures is the central text of the Christian Science religion. Science and Health encapsulates the teachings of Christian Science and Christian Scientists often call it their textbook.Christian Science develops its theology and its healing method from these simple statements: 1) God is All-in all. 2) God is good. 3)God is Mind, and God is infinite; hence all is Mind. The conclusions are that humans are all perfect spiritual ideas of the one divine Mind, and manifest Spirit, not a material body. The five physical senses, which take no account of Spirit, are the origin of all false beliefs. Adherents of Christian Science claim that sickness is just a belief, not a property of matter. Praying from this standpoint removes the belief and brings healing. |
| founder of christian science: The Life of Mary Baker G. Eddy and the History of Christian Science Willa Cather, 1993-01-01 This controversial biography of the founder of the Christian Science church was serialized in McClure's Magazine in 1907-8 and published as a book the next year. It disappeared almost overnight and has been difficult to find ever since. Although a Canadian mewspaperwoman named Georgine Milmine collected the material and was credited as the author, The Life Of Mary Baker G. Eddy was actually written by Willa Cather, an editor at McClure's at that time. In his introduction to this Bison Book edition, David Stouck reveals new evidence of Cather's authorship of The Life of Mary Baker G. Eddy. He discusses her fidelity to facts and her concern with psychology and philosophy that would take creative form later on. Indeed, this biography contains some of the finest portrait sketches and reflections on human nature that Willa Cather would ever write. |

| founder of christian science: Mary Baker Eddy Mary Baker Eddy, 2002 Mary Baker Eddy. Speaking for herself offers an unprecedented look at the woman hailed in 1907 as ...the most famous, interesting, and powerful woman in America, if not the world (Human Life magazine). First in a series of books featuring her previously unpublished writings, this is a volume where Eddy's voice is heard as never before. Mary Baker Eddy's accomplishments as a healer. author, publisher, and founder of an international newspaper and a worldwide movement are extraordinary when viewed in light of her nineteenth-century surroundings. Jana K. Riess, Religion Book Review Editor for Publishers Weekly, notes that Eddy ...persistently enlarged the boundaries of spirituality, womanhood, and medicine more than a century ago. She was a unique, strong, and visionary leader, a product of the nineteenth century who looked into the future and claimed its progress. Dr. Riess's insightful introduction looks at the societal context in which Eddy lived and made her lasting legacy. As the current interest in spirituality continues to rise, Eddy's bold concepts about spirituality, health, and womanhood are more relevant than ever. In the words of Dr. Riess, Her personal story could be any of ours, and it inspires us to transcend our circumstances as she did. Book jacket. |

| founder of christian science: The People's Idea of God: Its Effect On Health And Christianity Mary Baker Eddy, 2022-08-10 Every step of progress is a step more spiritual. The great element of reform is not born of human wisdom; it draws not its life from human organizations; rather is it the crumbling away of material elements from reason, the translation of law back to its original language,—Mind, and the final unity between man and God. The footsteps of thought, as they pass from the sensual side of existence to the reality and Soul of all things, are slow, portending a long night to the traveler; but the guardians of the gloom are the angels of His presence, that impart grandeur to the intellectual wrestling and collisions with old-time faiths, as we drift into more spiritual latitudes. The beatings of our heart can be heard; but the ceaseless throbbings and throes of thought are unheard, as it changes from material to spiritual standpoints. Even the pangs of death disappear, accordingly as the understanding that we are spiritual beings here reappears, and we learn our capabilities for good, which ensures man's continuance and is the true glory of immortality. |
| founder of christian science: Retrospection and Introspection Mary Baker Eddy, 2016-06-11 Many peculiar circumstances and events connected with my childhood throng the chambers of memory. For some twelve months, when I was about eight years old, I repeatedly heard a voice, calling me distinctly by name, three times, in an ascending scale. I thought this was my mother's voice, and sometimes went to her, beseeching her to tell me what she wanted. Her answer was always, Nothing, child! What do you mean? Then I would say, Mother, who did call me? I heard somebody call Mary, three times! This continued until I grew discouraged, and my mother was perplexed and anxious. |

| founder of christian science: God's Perfect Child Caroline Fraser, 2018-06-19 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. |
| founder of christian science: Christian Science Mark Twain, 2016-12-05 Christian Science is a 1907 book by the American writer Mark Twain (1835-1910). The book is a collection of essays Twain wrote about Christian Science, beginning with an article that was published in Cosmopolitan in 1899.

| founder of christian science: A New Christian Identity Amy B. Voorhees, 2021-02-10 In this study of Christian Science and the culture in which it arose, Amy B. Voorhees emphasizes Mary Baker Eddy's foundational religious text, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures. Assessing the experiences of everyday adherents after Science and Health's appearance in 1875, Voorhees shows how Christian Science developed a dialogue with both mainstream and alternative Christian theologies. Viewing God's benevolent allness as able to heal human afflictions through prayer, Christian Science emerged as an anti-mesmeric, restorationist form of Christianity that interpreted the Bible and approached emerging modern medicine on its own terms. Voorhees traces a surprising story of religious origins, cultural conversations, and controversies. She contextualizes Christian Science within a wide swath of cultural and religious movements, showing how Eddy and her followers interacted regularly with Baptists, Methodists, Congregationalists, Catholics, Jews, New Thought adherents, agnostics, and Theosophists. Influences flowed in both directions, but Voorhees argues that Christian Science was distinct not only organizationally, as scholars have long viewed it, but also theologically, a singular expression of Christianity engaging modernity with an innovative, healing rationale. |

| founder of christian science: After Doubt A. J. Swoboda, 2021-03-02 Is there a way to walk faithfully through doubt and come out the other side with a deeper love for Jesus, the church, and its tradition? Can we question our faith without losing it? Award-winning author, pastor, and professor A. J. Swoboda has witnessed many young people wrestle with their core Christian beliefs. Too often, what begins as a set of critical and important questions turns to resentment and faith abandonment. Unfortunately, the church has largely ignored its task of serving people along their journey of questioning. The local church must walk alongside those who are deconstructing their faith and show them how to reconstruct it. Drawing on his own experience of deconstruction, Swoboda offers tools to help emerging adults navigate their faith in a hostile landscape. Doubt is a part of our natural spiritual journey, says Swoboda, and deconstruction is a legitimate space to encounter the living God. After Doubt offers a hopeful, practical vision of spiritual formation for those in the process of faith deconstruction and those who serve them. Foreword by pastor and author John Mark Comer. |

| founder of christian science: 1Q84 Haruki Murakami, 2011-10-25 The long-awaited magnum opus from Haruki Murakami, in which this revered and bestselling author gives us his hypnotically addictive, mind-bending ode to George Orwell's 1984. The year is 1984. Aomame is riding in a taxi on the expressway, in a hurry to carry out an assignment. Her work is not the kind that can be discussed in public. When they get tied up in traffic, the taxi driver suggests a bizarre 'proposal' to her. Having no other choice she agrees, but as a result of her actions she starts to feel as though she is gradually becoming detached from the real world. She has been on a top secret mission, and her next job leads her to encounter the superhuman founder of a religious cult. Meanwhile, Tengo is leading a nondescript life but wishes to become a writer. He inadvertently becomes involved in a strange disturbance that develops over a literary prize. While Aomame and Tengo impact on each other in various ways, at times by accident and at times intentionally, they come closer and closer to meeting. Eventually the two of them notice that they are indispensable to each other. Is it possible for them to ever meet in the real world? |
| founder of christian science: In Defense of Mary Baker Eddy and The Remnant of Her Seed Paul Smillie, 2007-12-02 Daniel's prophetic dates, 1866 and 1875, announced the Second Advent. Not until the fruitage of those years became evident was it possible to see the magnitude of its meaning for all mankind. Mary Baker Eddy's revelation of Christian Science in 1866 and her textbook, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, the little book, published in 1875, aggravated the war against the Woman and her remnant - all of which is uncovered and documented in this vital book. Mr. Smillie's thorough defense of this God-sent woman details the importance of her life and its heavenly message. Micah foresaw two messengers. Zechariah asked, what be these two olive branches which empty the golden oil out of themselves? These are the two anointed ones who stand by the Lord of the whole earth. St. John records two witnesses or Prophets. Apparently these two would teach the same message. But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my [Jesus'] name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. This compilation of Paul R. Smillie's articles, written over 2 decades, is a must-have for any serious Christian Scientist. He explains in depth why it is important to recognize Mary Baker Eddy's place in prophecy, using her own words and many Biblical passages, and the consequences of little or no recognition. Articles included are: Loving Our Leader The Father, the Prodigal, and the Citizen Our Leader's Demonstration of Generic Man Does God Know Mary Baker Eddy and Christ Jesus? Christian Scientists and the Child Court Cases Gratitude or Indifference - Love or Deification? |
| founder of christian science: Christian Science Mark Twain, 1907 Mark Twain's witty, caustic attack on Christian Science and its founder Mary Baker Eddy came about as a result of his fear in 1898, that Christian Science would spread so rapidly, it would control Congress by the 1930s. Twain analyzes Mrs. Eddy's greed, lust for power, self-dedication, and incoherent writing.--Review from www.BarnesandNoble.com |
