Have you ever really
thought about the
Doctrine of Atonement?
Here are a few ideas we want to share from the
​Christian Science perspective.


From the King James Version of the Bible


John 3:16 God


​"...God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
 From Science and Health ​with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy,  
page 18:1–9


​
"Atonement is the exemplification of man's unity with God, whereby man reflects divine Truth, Life, and Love. Jesus of Nazareth taught and demonstrated man's oneness with the Father, and for this we owe him endless homage. His mission was both individual and collective. He did life's work aright not only in justice to himself, but in mercy to mortals, — to show them how to do theirs, but not to do it for them nor to relieve them of a single responsibility."
