The principle of spiritual synonymity – the foundation of the system of Christian Science Hanns-Dieter & Eva-Maria von den Steinen The Seed and the Harvest You reap the reward of Science in proportion as you sow its seed. Whatever of the nature of Mind or spiritual thinking you put into your study of Science,

you reap in power and intelligence.

Whatever you put into it of the nature of the order and purity of Spirit,

you reap in true progress and in the fruit of the Spirit.

Whatever you put into it of the nature of the definiteness and sanctity of Soul,

you reap in true identity, sinlessness, incorporeality.

Whatever you put into it of the nature of system, honesty, obedience, you reap in demonstration, in oneness, in perfection. Whatever you put into it of the nature of the exaltation and inspiration of Life,

you reap in eternity, fatherhood, and multiplication.

Whatever you put into it of the nature of Truth, you reap in health, sonship, manhood, Christ. Whatever you put into it of the nature of the fulfilment, completeness, and glory of Love,

you reap in the beauty of holiness, peace, rest and divine motherhood. So, in proportion as you sow the seed of Science, you reap the harvest of Science, because Science is based on Principle. Moreover, you have the ability to put everything you’ve got into it,

because you are the son of God, because you have the Mind of Christ, and so there is nothing to stop you. John W. Doorly
