Several years ago as I was gaining a deeper understanding of God through
studying the Bible Lessons, I was healed of a chronic cough that had plagued me
for more than ten years.— Sri, Jakarta, Indonesia

Very eager to know God, I took up a committed daily study of these Bible
Lessons… I realized that I had been healed of what I later learned might be
called panic attacks. In the four years since, I have not had a recurrence of
them. I am so grateful to God for this permanent healing.— Chiemezi, Owerri,
Nigeria

While I was studying the Bible Lesson, one citation from Psalms stood out above
all others (104:30): "Thou renewest the face of the earth." ... With this
renewed faith, I found that doubts began to fade away, and I felt assured of the
renewal of my face. ... Today, every trace of the skin cancer is gone, and no
scar remains.— Nell, Sonoma, California

Quite suddenly I was seized with an acute pain in my knee. … After completing
the study of the Bible Lesson, I got out of bed to find all pain entirely gone.
I ran up and down stairs to prove it was really so!— Dorothy, Claygate, Surrey,
England

My sister showed me how to study the Bible Lessons... Everything I read was
logical, and I was convinced that God would help me... I was quickly healed,
although the doctor a year before had said an operation would be unavoidable.—
Magda, Osnabrück, Germany

The Bible

The Bible is the foundation for the theology and practice of Christian Science.
Jesus’ ministry especially shows how we can experience healing and regeneration
as we learn that our true identity is completely spiritual. The first chapter of
Genesis states clearly that we are made in the image and likeness of God. The
lives of Abraham, Jacob, Moses, and the prophets, as well as those of Jesus and
his followers, are rich examples of God’s power to reform and heal.

For Mary Baker Eddy, Christian Science flowed out of an inspired understanding
of the Bible. Through prayer and biblical study, she learned about the divine
laws behind spiritual healing. These laws of God are powerful, always in
operation to heal, redeem, and bless humanity. The title of her primary
work, Science and Health, includes the phrase “Key to the Scriptures.” This
indicates its inseparable connection with the Bible. When describing her
discovery of Christian Science, she wrote, “The Bible has been my only
authority,” and, “The Bible contains the recipe for all healing” (Science and
Health, pp. 126, 406). Of the six brief tenets of Christian Science, the first
is: “As adherents of Truth, we take the inspired Word of the Bible as our
sufficient guide to eternal Life” (Science and Health, p. 497).

A weekly Bible Lesson offers individual study and is the heart of the Sunday
worship services. Sunday School for students up to the age of 20 is based on the
Ten Commandments, the Lord’s Prayer, and the Sermon on the Mount. And readings
from the Bible are also featured in midweek testimony meetings, where attendants
can share ways they’ve applied the spiritual lessons of the Scriptures to
real-life challenges — big and small.

Mary Baker Eddy

Mary Baker Eddy (1821-1910) was a spiritual pioneer. Her work covered the
disciplines of science, theology, and medicine.

She studied the Bible her whole life. In 1866, she experienced a dramatic
recovery from a life-threatening accident after reading one of Jesus’ healings.
From that moment, she wanted to know how she had been healed. She read the Bible
and prayed for answers. It became clear to her that spiritual healing was based
on divine laws of God, Spirit. She proved that these laws could be applied by
anyone to heal every form of human suffering and sin.

Spiritual healing isn’t miraculous, but an effect of understanding God’s
all-power and love. It’s as provable today as it was in biblical times. For the
next forty years, Mary Baker Eddy practiced, taught, and shared this healing
Science of Christianity. As Mary Baker Eddy became known as a Christian healer,
she was often asked to cure cases that had been given up by doctors. Once she
went to see a woman who’d been given up as dying by a well-known physician. She
wrote about this experience, “On seeing her immediately restored by me without
material aid, he asked earnestly if I had a work describing my system of healing
. . . he urged me immediately to write a book which should explain to the world
my curative system of metaphysics” (The First Church of Christ, Scientist, and
Miscellany, p. 105). When she went home, Mrs. Eddy opened her Bible to the verse
in Jeremiah, "Thus speaketh the Lord God of Israel, saying, Write thee all the
words that I have spoken unto thee in a book." (Jeremiah 30:2). That clear
message to her from God prompted her to write Science and Health with Key to the
Scriptures.

At the time, she was already writing notes that would expand into her
textbook, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures. This book contains the
full explanation of Christian Science and its biblical foundation of spiritual
healing. For over a century, readers have shared how reading and
studying Science and Health has given them a new spiritual sense of the Bible
and of their unchangeable relationship to God. These new insights result in
physical healing and moral regeneration.

Mary Baker Eddy went on to establish the Church of Christ, Scientist. It’s a
Christian denomination and worldwide movement of spiritual healers. She
published 16 more books and started several weekly and monthly
magazines—the Christian Science Sentinel, The Christian Science Journal, and The
Herald of Christian Science—that feature articles on Christian Science practice
and verified testimonies of healing. In 1908, when she was 87, she founded The
Christian Science Monitor, a global newspaper that provides balanced, humane
coverage of world news. It is alert to progress and promise as well as to
humanity’s need to address suffering and conflict. It was established to “injure
no man, but to bless all mankind” (The First Church of Christ, Scientist, and
Miscellany, p. 353). The Monitor publishes a daily digital edition on its
website and a weekly print magazine. It distributes news coverage and commentary
via articles, charts, audio, and video content.

You can read the full Bible and Science and Health online, purchase her other
works at a local Christian Science Reading Room or online, and explore and

What is Christian Science?

Mary Baker Eddy, who discovered and founded Christian Science, defined Christian
Science as “the law of God, the law of good . . . ” (Rudimental Divine Science,
p. 1). She’d learned that God is infinite Love, and completely good. A clear
glimpse of this through prayer has power to heal and transform anyone.

Mary Baker Eddy was a lifelong student of the Bible. And she’d always wanted to
find solutions to human suffering. When she was critically injured in 1866, she
turned to God with her whole heart. While reading accounts of Jesus’ swift,
powerful healings, she experienced a new sense of God. She saw that God, Spirit,
is the only reality. And she was completely healed. She wanted to understand
what happened, so she studied the Bible and found universal and dependable laws
of God. These laws are the foundation of Christian Science.

Since then many people have been healed and redeemed as they learn about their
relationship to God through this reliable Science of Christianity.
