MAN IS IDEA

DOROTHY DOLE SEYMOUR

Christian Science teaches that man, as idea, always lives, moves, and has his being in the infinite Mind that is God. He never can be taken out of the infinitude of God's love to be impaired, lost, afflicted, or destroyed. On page 475 of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," Mary Baker Eddy writes: "Man is idea, the image, of Love; he is not physique. He is the compound idea of God, including all right ideas."

Man as idea is an entity, spiritually formed, eternally outlined by Mind. He is as distinct, as definite and eternal as his creative Principle, God. As idea he is a unit, a complete individuality, including all right ideas essential to the progress, unfoldment, and fulfillment which Mind is continuously outlining for him.
