8 hours (8 60-min audiotapes) Class: 1980, Elizabethtown, PA Level: SUBJECT(s): The Structure of the Christian Science Textbook RELATED BOOKS: Max Kappeler, The Structure of the Christian Science Textbook—Our Way of Life, Vol. I: Revelation of the Structure Overview of C-1 Series: For over 60 years, Max Kappeler presented the structure of the Christian Science textbook through books, lectures, and classes, showing the divinely structured layout of each chapter. Kappeler's premise is that Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, by Mary Baker Eddy, is a revealed text and contains the whole of Christian Science. Read atomistically (sentences read out of context), the divinely inspired structure is missed. Our challenge is to understand Mrs. Eddy's revelation in its Science, something that can only be achieved through understanding the Textbook's spiritual system and structure. Once John W. Doorly pointed out the fundamental categories of the scientific system of Christian Science, it became possible for Kappeler to interpret the entire Textbook as a divinely structured, coherent story. This story leads the student through an evolution of understanding and consciousness in an uninterrupted, ordered way, from the first page to the last. This spiritual story is our ordered way of life and our teacher. SYNOPSIS of C-1T: In Chapter XIII, "Teaching Christian Science," we are taught to be Scientists. We are taught to have strict adherence to the divine Principle, to know ourselves only as Principle's idea, and to conform to the ethics of Christian Science. This demands strict adherence to the wisdom of Mind, the purity of Spirit, the divine rules of Soul, the onmipotence of Principle, the method of Life, the consciousness of Truth, and the motherhood of Love.
