Man is not matter; he is not made up of
        brain, blood, bones, and other material elements. The
        Scriptures inform us that man is made in
475:9   the image and likeness of God. Matter is
        not that likeness. The likeness of Spirit cannot be so
        unlike Spirit. Man is spiritual and perfect; and be-
475:12  cause he is spiritual and perfect, he must be so under-
        stood in Christian Science. Man is idea, the image, of
        Love; he is not physique. He is the compound idea of
475:15  God, including all right ideas; the generic term for
        all that reflects God's image and likeness; the conscious
        identity of being as found in Science, in which man is
475:18  the reflection of God, or Mind, and therefore is eternal;
        that which has no separate mind from God; that which
        has not a single quality underived from Deity; that which
475:21  possesses no life, intelligence, nor creative power of his
        own, but reflects spiritually all that belongs to his Maker.

        And God said: "Let us make man in our image, after
475:24  our likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish
        of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle,
        and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that
475:27  creepeth upon the earth."

Dealing with the bad stuff

Shortened Joseph puzzle




When the brothers saw Joseph coming they planned to kill him.


Jacob sent Joseph to check on his brothers with the flocks.


Jacob (Israel) gave his favourite son Joseph a coat of many colours.

Jacob was very very sad.


He dreamed his brothers were stars that bowed to his star.


Joseph's brothers were jealous and hated him.




When the brothers saw Joseph coming they planned to kill him.


Reuben convinced them to just throw him in a pit, where he could rescue him later.


While Reuben was away the brothers sold Joseph to be a slave.

The brothers dipped the coat in blood and showed it their father, Jacob.





Potiphar, an officer in Pharaoh's army bought Joseph.

Joe was so successful, Pharaoh put him in charge of everything he had.

Potiphar's wife tried to get Joseph to lie with her, but he would not. He had
to jump out of his shirt to get away.

Potiphar's wife kept Joseph's shirt and told her husband a false version of what really happened, so he put Joseph in jail with Pharaoh's prisoners.

While in jail, Joseph gained a reputation for explaining dreams.Pharaoh started having very strange dreams: 7 skinny cows ate 7 fat ones, but stayed skinny -7 skinny ears of corn ate 7 fat ones but stayed skinny. The dreams made him upset.
No one could interpret the dream to Pharaoh, so Joseph was summoned to try to explain the dreams.

Joseph said that 7 years of famine and drought would follow the next 7 years of plenty. Joseph advised storing away food for the 7 good years to save people in the 7 bad years.

Pharaoh was so impressed with Joseph's explanation that he put him in charge of all of Egypt.

When the 7 years of famine came, the Egyptians were in good shape, but Jacob and Joseph's brothers were starving in Canaan.


Jacob sent all his sons except Benjamin to Egypt to buy food.


Joseph recognized his brothers right away, but they had no idea who he was.


Joseph pretended he thought they were spies and when he sold them food he made hi brother Simeon stay behind in Egypt. He told his brothers not to ever come back without Benjamin, the youngest.

Jacob thought he would never let Benjamin go after losing Joseph and Benjamin, but finally because they were all so hungry, he let them all go back.

Joseph gave them food, but he planted his silver cup in Benjamin's sack. He accused Benjamin of stealing it and said Benjamin must be his slave.

When the brothers defended Benjamin and Judah offered to be a slave instead of Benjamin, Joseph knew his brothers loved their father and Benjamin. He knew they had improved a lot.

Joseph revealed his identity to his brothers and told them not to be angry with themselves for what they had done, since by coming to Egypt, Joseph had saved them all from starving.

Pharaoh invited Jacob and all of Joesph's brothers and their families to come to Egypt and live as Egypt's guests in honour of Joseph who had saved them all.
