A HOLY MESSAGE FOR ALL
As adherents of Truth, we take the inspired Word of the Bible as our sufficient guide to eternal Life.—Mary Baker Eddy, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, p. 497
"The Bible contains the recipe for all healing" (Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, p. 406). That all-encompassing statement by Mary Baker Eddy from her textbook on healing coaxes one to apply the truths found in the Bible to every aspect of the human experience. If people take the choice of the word "all" seriously, no illness, sin, poverty, financial woe, hatred, or even death is beyond the Bible's reach. I find that incredibly comforting, and I believe it with my whole heart. What's more, trusting that the Bible holds such a recipe unites us with every other person who looks to it for answers.
