BIBLE STUDY

Under divine authority

Two accounts of creation—do we switch back and
forth between them in order to discover truth?

From the July 1999 issue of The Christian Science Journal


When I was given a copy of the Christian Science textbook, Science and Health by Mary Baker Eddy, along with an issue of the Christian Science Quarterly, I was delighted to have some tools that would help me to study the Bible on a consistent, in-depth basis and that would elucidate its spiritual meaning. When I found that this study was improving my health and my relationships, and was benefiting my family, my joy knew no bounds.

One of the twenty-six Lessons in the Quarterly is called "Adam and Fallen Man." Over the years in studying this particular subject, I have been able to discern more clearly the difference between the Bible's two accounts of creation found in the book of Genesis.

It was my right
to identify myself
spiritually.
