In the Christian Science Bible Lesson April 25, 2011 ISSUE

God does not punish, but redeems

For the lesson titled "Everlasting Punishment" from April 25-May 1, 2011

Genelle Austin-Lett

What wonderful promises of eternal forgiveness fill this week’s Bible Lesson, titled “Everlasting Punishment.” Through the centuries religion and the arts have portrayed a judgment day with a deific figure unrolling a scroll filled with good or bad actions that lead to heavenly bliss or endless punishment. Yet, transformation, not punishment, is the result of God’s unconditional love .

The Lesson exposes varying degrees of imprisoned thought that God rescues and redeems, where mortals might condemn or punish.
