SONSHIP

D. MARJORIE PETERSON

Christian Science offers impartially to all the method by which they can demonstrate freedom from the heartbreak, disappointments, false pride, and possessive domination which so often accompany human relationships. Whether the appearance is a disease to be healed or a disrupted relationship, the factors in Christian Science healing are Truth and the infinite ideas which reveal the nature of Truth.

Because of its eternal nature, Truth, being God, can know nothing of time or procrastination. Christian Science bases its teaching on the eternal perfection of the one infinite God, good, the only cause and creator, and man in His image and likeness.

God is divine Love. Mary Baker Eddy says (Miscellaneous Writings, p. 151), "God is our Father and our Mother, our Minister and the great Physician: He is man's only real relative on earth and in heaven." As we understand divine Love's all-embracing, undeviating completeness, we understand God, divine Principle. This immutably loving Principle is really the only Mother there is.
