Produktbeschreibung
The primary text of Christian Science, this book explains the beliefs and doctrines, and offers many examples of faith as source of healing energy for true believers. Written by Mary Baker Eddy in the 1870s, the work coins several recognizable terms such as "God is all" and "God is mind." These phrases denote how the power of the Lord is within everything, including our own human minds; spanning matter, energy and the universe, the being of God is infinite and occupies everywhere at every time. Keen to distinguish Christian Science from other, more spiritually intensive movements of metaphysics or the occult, Mary Baker Eddy emphasizes how Christ as God is a great example of the Lord's infinite presence. Many of the accounts later in the book, whereby Christians attest that their beliefs helped them overcome various illnesses, are rooted deep in the traditions of the faith. This edition of the book is adapted from the revised, updated edition of 1910.
Autorenporträt
Mary Baker Eddy was an American religious leader and author. She was born on July 16, 1821, and died on December 3, 1910. In 1879, she started The Church of Christ, Scientist, in New England. She also started The Christian Science Monitor in 1908, as well as the Christian Science Sentinel, The Christian Science Journal, and The Herald of Christian Science, which are all religious magazines. She wrote many books and papers, but Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures and Manual of The Mother Church are the most well-known. The Prose Works Other than Science and Health is a collection of works that were edited after the author died. Mary Morse Baker was born on July 16, 1821, in a farm house in Bow, New Hampshire. Her parents were Mark Baker, a farmer who died in 1865, and Abigail Barnard Baker, formerly Ambrose, who died in 1849. People say that Eddy and her father had a tense relationship. Ernest Sutherland Bates and John V. Dittemore wrote in 1932 that Mark Baker tried to break Eddy's will with hard punishments, but that Eddy's mother often stepped in. Unlike Mark Baker, Eddy's mother was described as religious, quiet, light-hearted, and kind.
