In class:    Can our errors be met and overcome other than by crucifixion?    No, there is no other way, else Jesus would not have been crucified. Each one must pass through Gethsemane and up Calvary’s height to [t]he cross.   Mary Baker Eddy

(Oakes, Richard, Course In Divinity and General Collectanea, p.279)

Not more sympathy exists between physiology and Christianity, than God and Belial. Failing to recover through adherence to materia medica, physiology and hygiene, the despairing invalid drops these, and turns in his extremity — sometimes to God, the dernier resort of mortal man, and one in which he has even less trust than in drugs, air, exercise, etc., showing we have other Gods before Me. The balance of power is given to matter, by every theory of the schools, whereas Spirit at last asserts its mastery over man, and holds the body harmonious and immortal.  (Eddy, Mary Baker, Science and Health, 1st, ed., p.330-331)

Explaining man a physical being evolved from matter, is a Pandora box opened on mankind, whereby hope escapes, and despair alone remains. If matter laws prevent disease, what causes it? not the laws of God, surely, for Christ, Truth, heals the sick, and brings to light immortality; but not through obedience to physiology. Laws of matter are nothing more or less than a belief of Intelligence and Life in matter, even the procuring cause of disease, and God its cure. (Eddy, Mary Baker, Science and Health, 1st ed., p.330)

Mrs. Eddy called all the workers together and made them promise to keep their watch. In explanation she said, ‘To keep your watch does not mean only to be awake at that hour and be working mentally. It means to do the work and succeed in breaking the mesmerism for the two hours assigned. If you don’t succeed, you haven’t kept your watch.’   Mary Baker Eddy

 Are her followers willing to take up their crosses, as she has taken up hers, in order to follow Christ, or do they demand all that they humanly want?  Mary Baker Eddy

 Sad, sad thought that money regulates the actions of so many students, Had your Leader been governed thus, Christian Science would have been minus today, instead of overcoming all opposition, ruling and reigning …. I have worked for all without money or price till God paid me in His own way. It is safe to go and do likewise. I left house, home and friends, and I gave up a large salary, as a writer, in order to serve the Cause of Christian Science. I have endured all shame and blame in its behalf, and I have lived these down. 

This is the experience of your Leader. Mary Baker Eddy

(Oakes, Richard, Mary Baker Eddy: Lessons of the Seventh Day, p.162-163)

Someone in the room was speaking. ‘Instead of speaking of joints, I should have said,’ this one said, ‘locomotion and action is perfect.’ Mrs. Eddy said: ‘Yes, in declaring the perfection of all things begin with God, not with matter. You do not arrive at perfection by thinking of material organism. Begin with Mind and keep your thought away from all things material.’   Mary Baker Eddy

(Oakes, Richard, Course In Divinity and General Collectanea, p.250)

Putting on the full armor of physiology, obeying to the letter, the so-called laws of health, statistics show, has not diminished sickness, nor increased longevity; diseases have multiplied and become more obstinate; their chronic forms more frequent; the acute more fatal and death more sudden, since man-made theories have taken the place of primitive Christianity.   (Eddy, Mary Baker, Science and Health, 1st ed., p.330)
