Christian Science
WHAT WE BELIEVE…
Christian Scientists believe in one, infinite God who is All and all-good. They believe that God is not distant and unknowable, but that God is all-encompassing and always present, and that each individual is loved by God, cared for by Him, and made in God’s image—spiritual, not material.
Christian Scientists believe in the Bible and in Christ Jesus as the Son of God, or promised Messiah. And they believe that Jesus’ teachings and healing work expressed scientific Christianity, or the application of the laws of God—laws which are still practical and provable today, by anyone, anywhere. Christian Scientists consider the Commandments, as well as Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount, to be central to their lives and practice of Christianity.
Above all, Christian Scientists believe in the saving, healing power of God’s love—that no one is beyond redemption, that no problem is too entrenched or overwhelming to be addressed and healed. In other words, Christian Scientists don’t believe that salvation occurs at some point in the future, but that the presence of God’s goodness can be experienced here and now—and by everyone.
In 1879, Mary Baker Eddy, the Discoverer of Christian Science, founded the Church of Christ, Scientist. Her purpose was to establish a church designed, “to commemorate the word and works of our Master, which should reinstate primitive Christianity and its lost element of healing.” (Manual of The Mother Church.)
This church is of one of the branches of The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Massachusetts. Join us this Sunday at 10:30 am at 3181 Fairmont Blvd. in Cleveland
A Christian Science Way of Life
DAILY PRACTICE
Christian Science is a way of life for our members. We have a unique way of approaching our daily outlook and interaction with others. Daily prayer and Bible and Science and Health readings help keep our practice strong and effective for our and the world’s well being.
PRACTITIONERS
When we need additional prayer support, we go to Christian Science Practitioners who guide our healing process. They pray for us and provide additional resources to help our study of healing.
