Description
“Eminent members of the church have cast doubts upon such essential doctrines as the Immaculate Conception and the Resurrection. Doctrines, subsequently, may safely be laid aside to come to the fundamental question, on which some of these doctrines are based, Did Spirit create matter? In other words, Are the material universe and the human race the creation of God? There’s the whole question, and each one is subsidiary to it, as Mrs. Eddy saw perfectly clear when she wrote in ‘Unity of Good’: ‘What’s the cardinal point of the difference in my metaphysical system? This: that by knowing the unreality of disease, sin, and death, you demonstrate the allness of God. This difference wholly separates my system from all others. The reality of these so-referred to as existences I deny, because they aren’t to be found in God, and this system is built on Him as the sole cause. It could be difficult to name any previous teachers, save Jesus and his apostles, who have thus taught.’” -The Christian Science Journal
