Golden Text:
“There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;” (Ephesians 4:4)
This Bible Lesson lifts our thoughts above what mortal sense perceives as the travails of mortal life — human conflict, the belief of illness, lack, and so on. It offers instead a clear, healing view of God, Soul, governing all; and of mankind reflecting and expressing only the intelligence, honesty, grace, and love imparted by God, Soul.
“Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God.” (Psalms 42:11)
“Man is the expression of Soul. The Indians caught some glimpses of the underlying reality, when they called a certain beautiful lake “the smile of the Great Spirit.” Separated from man, who expresses Soul, Spirit would be a nonentity; man, divorced from Spirit, would lose his entity. But there is, there can be, no such division, for man is coexistent with God.” (Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy, p. 477:26)
