Sharing the Herald

“Millions of unprejudiced minds — simple seekers for Truth, weary wanderers, athirst in the desert — are waiting and watching for rest and drink. Give them a cup of cold water in Christ’s name, and never fear the consequences.” 
—Mary Baker Eddy, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, p. 570

Viestimen tehtävä

Vuonna 1903 Mary Baker Eddy perusti The Herald of Christian Science’in (Kristillisen Tieteen Viestimen). Sen tarkoitus on: “julistaa Totuuden maailmanlaajuista toimivuutta ja saatavuutta”. Eräässä sanakirjassa ”herald” määritellään ”airueksi – viestinviejäksi, joka on etukäteen lähetetty ilmoittamaan siitä, mitä on tuleva”. Tämä antaa erityisen merkityksen Herald-nimelle ja lisäksi viittaa velvollisuuteemme, meidän jokaisen velvollisuuteen, pitää huolta siitä, että Heraldimme täyttävät luotettavasti tehtävänsä, tehtävänsä, joka on erottamaton Kristuksesta ja jonka Jeesus ensimmäisenä ilmoitti (Mark. 16:15): ”Menkää kaikkeen maailmaan ja saarnatkaa evankeliumia kaikille luoduille.”

Mary Sands Lee, Christian Science Sentinel, July 7, 1956
