GOD GAVE MAN DOMINION

From the October 1964 issue of The Christian Science Journal


WE read in the Bible that God gave man dominion over all the earth. What is this dominion? How and when can it be exercised? If these questions are to be answered, the right understanding of God is requisite. One must understand the Giver in order to appreciate and to utilize the gift.

The full nature of God was revealed to Mrs. Eddy, who has conveyed it to the world through Christian Science. God revealed Himself to her as Mind, Life, Truth, Love, Soul, Spirit, Principle.

Christian Science teaches that God, infinite Mind, controls and governs the entire universe, including man, through spiritual laws. Divine Mind is One, unopposed, filling all space, the supreme intelligence, which conceives and knows only good. As the image and likeness of God, man reflects God's supremacy. Subject to God only, man has dominion over the whole universe.
