What is “truth” to you? This powerful Bible Lesson helps us understand “Truth” as a synonym for God, Divine Principle — ever-present, maintaining health, safety, supply for all His creation.

“. . . Moses spake unto the children of Israel, according unto all that the Lord had given him in commandment unto them;” (Deuteronomy 1:3)

“. . . this commandment which I command thee this day, it is not hidden from thee, neither is it far off. (Deuteronomy 30: 11)

“But the word is very nigh unto thee, in thy mouth, and in thy heart, that thou mayest do it….. That thou mayest love the Lord thy God, and that thou mayest obey his voice, and that thou mayest cleave unto him: for he is thy life, and the length of thy days:” (Deuteronomy 30, 14, 20)

“If God, the All-in-all, be the creator of the spiritual universe, including man, then everything entitled to a classification as truth, or Science, must be comprised in a knowledge or understanding of God, for there can be nothing beyond illimitable divinity.” (Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, by Mary Baker Eddy, p. 127:4.)

You can read this Bible Lesson here, or by visiting our Reading Room.
