In one of her classes Mrs. Eddy taught as follows – 3

“The rod that Moses threw down, became through God the power of good. The rod Moses had, God did not give him, but God commanded him to throw it down, and it became a serpent, his enemy.

“Then God spoke to Moses (who fled in fear) and commanded him to pick up the serpent (demonstrate the nothingness) and it became a rod.

“He could not expect to throw away the rod power at once, but must take it up as a staff – let it become the power of God – see it (sickness, error) work in us unto salvation.” Mary Baker Eddy

“God told Moses to handle the serpent, but Moses tried to run away from it. God told him to go back and handle it. Moses said, ‘Where is the serpent? God did not make one.’ God said, ‘Handle the serpent,’ and he did, and it became a rod. The rod of Moses was malicious mesmerism, and when he handled it, it was a power, for he had power over lords many and gods many, and it was a staff to lean upon.” Mary Baker Eddy

Be wholly absorbed in the work of gaining daily more understanding of God. Then personal ambition, envy, desire to be in this or that place, cannot use you. Personal ambition has no place in a Christian’s thought or life. He is wholly occupied in the loving, humble purpose to do good, and to prove that good is all that can govern thought, action, condition, or being. Mary Baker Eddy

In one of her classes Mrs. Eddy taught as follows – 1

“A nerve is the talking serpent that was a lie from the beginning. Error is the talking serpent that talks to you against Mother and Jesus and yourself and your brethren, and cannot talk at all. Truth is. Let God talk all the time; there is nothing else. Serpent is mere belief – explained by the words, ‘A belief of personal sense that is governed by the Truth, is a harmonious belief. A harmonious belief governed by the Truth, is spiritual sense – understanding.’ Mary Baker Eddy

ARGUMENTS

Neither mesmerism, hypnotism, theosophy, esoteric magic nor wicked mental or audible arguments can affect me. God governs me. Justice, Truth, Love govern us, and nothing else can or does affect us in the least. Thrice each day from one half to one hour. Then have faith in God. Know that faith as a grain of mustard seed can remove mountains, and have no faith in evil. Know that it cannot do anything, that it is nothing. Know that God is all. The wrath of man shall praise Thee and the remainder of wrath shalt Thou restrain. All things work together for good to them that love God. See I Thess 5. Mary Baker Eddy
