Comments on the Bible Lesson

"...man is made in the image and likeness of God."

"Man is spiritual and perfect."

- Mary Baker Eddy

Subject: Man 

If we look around the world with the five senses, we do not see man as "perfect". How could Mary Baker Eddy make this statement?

The key is to see ourselves the way God sees us. God created us, and could infinite, Almighty God create anything less than perfect? If we keep a spritual perpective, then it must be our perception with the material senses that is the source of the disparity. The Bible is so important and helpful because it presents our true nature as spiritual, not material.
