When something really good happens, often someone will say, “That was a miracle!” Such a statement suggests that the good expressed is unexpected, that the universe is governed by laws of nature that have conflict and limitation built in. That the universe can be a scary place. Perhaps even a hopeless place.
Christian Science presents a very different view of reality: a Bible-based, spiritual view. It shows that God, good, is the creator, and He governs all that He creates; man and the universe are governed by God’s unchangeable and consistently good spiritual laws. This means that there is never a need for miraculous intervention, because good is already the provable spiritual fact. Good is always divinely natural.
The authoritative Bible record in the first chapter of Genesis also makes spiritual reality clear. In it, God, Spirit, made all that was made, and man is made in God’s image and likeness. And when God’s creation was fully revealed, He declared that it was very good. Everything God creates is complete, having all that is required for perfection; and so everything He creates is rightly governed in function and action, and rightly sustained and maintained by Him. And because God’s laws govern, His creation is naturally and consistently good.
