January 8, 1904. Jesus said, ‘Watch and pray.’ The watching comes first. You must watch, see the enemy before it comes and strikes; destroy before it approaches.  Mary Baker Eddy   (Oakes, Richard, Course In Divinity and General Collectanea, p.18)

Under the law of Love, hatred, envy, malice are powerless — cannot act.  Mary Baker Eddy   (Carpenter, Gilbert, Fragments Gathered From Unpublished Items Ascribed to Mary Baker Eddy, p.82)

Once Mrs. Eddy declared, “The time will come and I feel it will be soon, when Christian Scientists will not have to make a conscious effort in giving treatment, for through the constant desire and endeavor for a Christian life, their consciousness will have become so purified, that healing will go forth from them as naturally as the perfume from flowers, to those who are ready for it.”  Mary Baker Eddy   (Carpenter, Jr., Gilbert, 500 Watching Points, #324)

The perfect and divine law of adjustment working through the ever-present and eternal law of attraction is bringing to me that which belongs to me. Love is everywhere. Abide in Love. Nothing can touch or harm you in Love. Know that you live in Love. Love is God as Life itself. Take this understanding with you and bless others with Love. Remember, my dear, that there will be nothing come to you that you cannot overcome. The victory is yours by inheritance; claim it and use it as yours.  Mary Baker Eddy   (Carpenter, Gilbert, Essays on Christian Science, p.58)

Animal magnetism does not deceive me. It is not my consciousness. I do not hear it argue, neither can it argue. It is neither mind, life nor intelligence; neither person, place nor thing. Try to realize the omnipresence of Life and Love, the inbreathing of His presence. Arouse yourself to a clear sense of God’s power, the eternal and ever-conscious Mind which knows only Life.   Mary Baker Eddy  (Carpenter, Gilbert, Collectanea of Items By and About Mary Baker Eddy, p.109)

The moment you are pleasant with or in error, that moment you can do nothing with it. There must be authority. It is not seeking but striving that enables us to conquer.  Mary Baker Eddy   (Oakes, Richard, Course In Divinity and General Collectanea, p.18)

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE – 12

It is often remarked how wonderful it is and difficult to conceive that we should have ventured on such unfamiliar grounds; and self-forgetful, go on to establish this mighty system of Metaphysical Healing or Christian Science.  To have made such progress, and seen so far into the spiritual facts of being that constitute physical and mental perfection in the midst of an age so sunk in sin and sensualism.         EDITOR.  Mary Baker Eddy  (CS Journal, Vol I. No. 6, Feb, 1884, p.2)

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE  – 11

The feverish, disgusting pride, of those who call themselves metaphysicians or scientists, and are such in name only, fanned by the breath of mental malpractitioners is the death’s head at the feast of Truth, and the monkey in harlequin jacket, that will stop the onward march of this life-giving science, if it be not withstood and strangled in its attempts.  Mary Baker Eddy  (CS Journal, Vol I. No. 6, Feb, 1884, p.2)
