The divine Mind is yours to draw from and execute with, to bring out in your business harmony, success and prosperity. There is no avarice, greed, trust in money, or love of money. You have abun­dant proof of God’s loving care and His law of supply. You live in the land of promise. God has called you out of any sojourn in Egypt (in darkness) to return to your own country and inheri­tance. The days of hunger, famine, thirst are past. God is Prin­ciple, substance, Life. Man as His image reflects the capabili­ties and possibilities of Spirit. There is no power nor presence that can resist good nor prevent your prayer from being answered, from being effectual. While you remain in this attitude of mind you are obedient to the Principle of your being and naught can hinder your healing the sick and the sinning.  Mary Baker Eddy   (Carpenter, Gilbert, Essays On Christian Science, p.56)

Take the First Commandment for your medicine. It cures all disease. There is but one Mind, and no person can, or is, harming you. It is a dream, a falsity, an illusion. You have no material head, heart, back. There is no electro-magnetism, no nerve centers for fools or demons to play upon with glamour.  Mary Baker Eddy   (Carpenter, Gilbert, Collectanea of Items By and About Mary Baker Eddy, p.135)

Oh! If we could only see ourselves in God, ‘In Him we live and
move and have our being,’ we would have no other consciousness.   Mary Baker Eddy   (Oakes, Richard, Course in Divinity and General Collectanea, p.10)

ERRING MORTAL MIND-7

Our Master asked: “How can one enter into a strong man’s house and spoil his goods, except he first bind the strong man?” In other words: How can I heal the body, without beginning with so-called mortal mind, which directly controls the body? When disease is once destroyed in this so-called mind, the fear of disease is gone, and therefore the disease is thoroughly cured. Mortal mind is “the strong man,” which must be held in subjection before its influence upon health and morals can be removed. This error conquered, we can despoil the strong man” of his goods, – namely, of sin and disease.  (Eddy, Mary Baker, Science and Health With Key To The Scriptures, 399:29-19)

ERRING MORTAL MIND-6

Strangely enough, we ask for material theories in support of spiritual and eternal truths, when the two are so antagonistic that the material thought must become spiritualized before the spiritual fact is attained. So-called material existence affords no evidence of spiritual existence and immortality. Sin, sickness, and death do not prove man’s entity or immortality. Discord can never establish the facts of harmony. Matter is not the vestibule of Spirit.   (Eddy, Mary Baker, Science and Health With Key To The Scriptures, 355:32)

ERRING MORTAL MIND-5

We must learn how mankind govern the body, — whether through faith in hygiene, in drugs, or in will-power. We should learn whether they govern the body through a belief in the necessity of sickness and death, sin and pardon, or govern it from the higher understanding that the divine Mind makes perfect, acts upon the so-called human mind through truth, leads the human mind to relinquish all error, to find the divine Mind to be the only Mind, and the healer of sin, disease, death. This process of higher spiritual understanding improves mankind until error disappears, and nothing is left which deserves to perish or to be punished.  (Eddy, Mary Baker, Science and Health With Key To The Scriptures, 251:15)

ERRING MORTAL MIND-4

     A change in human belief changes all the physical symptoms, and determines a case for better or for worse. When one’s false belief is corrected, Truth sends a report of health over the body.  (Eddy, Mary Baker, Science and Health With Key To The Scriptures, 194:6-9)

ERRING MORTAL MIND-3

     We say, “My hand hath done it.” What is this my but mortal mind, the cause of all materialistic action? All voluntary, as well as miscalled involuntary, action of the mortal body is governed by this so-called mind, not by matter. There is no involuntary action. The divine Mind includes all action and volition, and man in Science is governed by this Mind. The human mind tries to classify action as voluntary and involuntary, and suffers from the attempt.

     If you take away this erring mind, the mortal material body loses all appearance of life or action, and this so-called mind then calls itself dead; but the human mind still holds in belief a body, through which it acts and which appears to the human mind to live, — a body like the one it had before death. This body is put off only as the mortal, erring mind yields to God, immortal Mind, and man is found in His image.  (Eddy, Mary Baker, Science and Health With Key To The Scriptures,  187:18-2)
