SYNOPSIS: The 7 synonyms for God: Mind, Spirit, Soul, Principle, Life, Truth, Love (see S&H 465:10) constitute the core teaching of the Science of Christian Science. Martha Bogue, who attended Mary Baker Eddy's class in 1888, writes that Mrs. Eddy said: "Upon the truth of these terms for God rests the basis of the Science; in fact they are the Science" (Mis. Doc. p. 61). This introductory level seminar deals with the practical questions and implications of studying the synonyms for God. An excellent preparation prior to beginning study of the Compendiums or Syllabus I.
