Ken Cooper’s “POETIC POSTLUDE” shares poetry inspired by Bible citations that celebrate THE FREE AND ACTIVE INFINITE SPIRIT OF GOD in this week’s Christian Science Quarterly Bible Lesson on:

“SPIRIT”
For Sunday, August 6, 2023


  • Click “THE BREATH OF SPIRIT” for Ken’s shared Christian Science Sentinel poem [EACH BREATH OF PRAYER UNITES US ALL: IN SPIRIT IS TRUE SEEING.]
  • Click “I AM GOD’S TREASURE” for Ken’s YouTube poem [CHRIST JESUS MADE ME SEE AS TRUE THE ALTOGETHER SPIRITUAL VIEW.]
  • Click “JAIRUS’ DAUGHTER” for Ken’s Poetry site poem [Yes, we’d all been asleep! I see now there’s no death, – In God the Almighty is all being and breath.]

GOD (perfection) has no beginning or ending. GOD IS UNIVERSAL SPIRIT. And man, everyone of us, is the very thought and expression of the ONE perfect infinite SPIRIT. 

What can be outside infinite SPIRIT? Nothing, and in reality anything other than SPIRIT, GOD, does not exist, and cannot touch God, nor man. God and man are inseparable. You can’t have one without the other.

As Life, Truth and Love make man free, so does infinite Spirit. They are one and the same.

GOLDEN TEXT

Job 33:4    The Spirit of God has always known me, and it is His Spirit that animates my very being, inspires everything I do, gives my life true meaning.


RESPONSIVE READING.

1 Corinthians 02:12   Now we have received this Spirit which is of God and not of the world, for it is only by His Spirit that we can ever know what God has freely and so lavishly given us.

1 Corinthians 02:13   When we speak , we speak as taught to us by God’s Holy Spirit, not by so-called human wisdom. And it is this same Spirit that helps us clearly explain to those that are listening all that is spiritual.

 [1 Corinthians 02:14 He who is not spiritual will never know, – it can only be foolishness to him, for he is looking the wrong way.]

 1 John 4:04       My dear children, you are all of God, belong to Him, and have already defeated the false prophets of this world, because the Spirit within you is far stronger than anything the world may be falsely suggesting to you.

 As with Life, Truth, Love, the infinity of Spirit brings the fullness of God’s unlimited blessings, our individual and collective experience as the children of Spirit, our Father-Mother God.
