Day 272: The Deep Divinity

544:28-546:22

In this reading Mary Baker Eddy makes a few points about the two stories that I would like to note them:

  • If Mind, God, creates error, that error must exist in the divine Mind, and this assumption of error would dethrone the perfection of Deity.
  • …mortals should so improve material belief by thought tending spiritually upward as to destroy materiality.
  • Material, erroneous belief reverses understanding and truth.

She makes a point at the end of the reading that Genesis and Revelation

seem more obscure than other portions of the Scripture, because they cannot possibly be interpreted from a material standpoint. To the author, they are transparent, for they contain the deep divinity of the Bible.
