What is Christian Science? It is a science because it is based upon a set of spiritual principles—laws relating to the nature of God & his creation

Christian Science=Christian? Denies doctrines of Christianity Reinterpreted the Bible Ripped scriptures out of their historical & Biblical contexts Redefines Bible’s culture & terminology

*Beliefs* God is a principle of the Divine Mind—has no person hood or personality Sin & sickness are only errors of the Divine Mind & have no true reality Jesus is a way-shower—someone who epitomized the true principle of Christian consciousness that indwells us all—he did not die on the cross, did not shed his blood, & was not God in flesh Christ—divine idea man, Jesus was not Christ but the perfect example of the Christ consciousness which is above us all (Christian Scientist can say “I am Christ” Devil—evil, a lie, error

*Death & Dying* Death—an illusion, lie of life in matter Heaven—not a literal place of eternal bliss Hell—state of mind, this exists when a person’s thoughts are out of harmony with the reality of the Divine Mind Christian Science theology does not include a final judgment day Everyday each individual can make a new choice that can determine the path he or she is on—away from God or towards him

*Medication* Christian Scientists promotes healing of physical & mental illnesses through prayer. They do not take any medications. They do compromise in the case of a broken bone. They do have to abide by city & state laws when it comes to communicable diseases & child care.

Christian Science=Positive Thinking? Positive thinking relies on the human mind to think or effect a good result. Christian Science starts with God & the conviction that God’s goodness embraces each of us at all times.

Is Christian Science a Cult? No, there is no brainwashing, mind control, or blind following of a leader. Christian Scientists do have a deep appreciation to the founder of Christian Science, Mary Baker Eddy, but they do not worship her.

What does a Christian Science Nurse do? Christian Science nurses provide skillful, non- medical physical care for anyone relying on Christian Science for healing. Includes bathing, wound dressings, assistance with mobility, feedings, & etc.
