Happy family: mother, father, children son and daughter on nature on sunset

Golden Text: “Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him.” (Proverbs 30:5)

This Bible Lesson shows us that, as we work and pray to see ourselves and others as precious children of a loving Father-Mother God, our at-one-ment with God, Good, can never be broken.

“Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord? or who shall stand in his holy place? He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully. He shall receive the blessing from the Lord, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.” (Psalms 24: 3-5)

“Christian Science demonstrates that none but the pure in heart can see God, as the gospel teaches. In proportion to his purity is man perfect; and perfection is the order of celestial being which demonstrates Life in Christ, Life’s spiritual ideal.” (Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy, p. 337: 14)

About the Bible Lesson

The weekly Bible Lesson is read and studied daily by students of Christian Science around the world, and is read on Sundays in Christian Science churches everywhere.

We are grateful to announce the July 4 reopening of our Bellingham church services, which have been suspended over the past year to respect Washington State’s Covid-19 guidance. During these past months of, however, the Bible Lesson has continued to be read and studied, bringing the healing blessings of church to our members every day.

You can read or hear it too, at this link, whenever you wish, every day.

You can also listen live and replay the Sunday church service and Wednesday testimony meeting held at The Mother Church of Christian Science, in Boston, MA. Click here to access those services.
