Learning to Love Your Ennemies

Giulia Nesi Tetreau, member of the Christian Science Board of Lectureship


Warwick Hotel

14, Rue de Lausanne

The talk will focus on universal healing precepts found in the Holy Bible, especially in Christ Jesus’ life and teachings, showing how they are available for anyone to understand and experience through the lens of Christian Science. The talk is free, open to the community, and hosted by First Church of Christ, Scientist, Geneva.


“Is someone in your life hard to love?” asks Ms. Tetreau. “Loving others, including those who may feel like enemies, can sometimes feel impossible. Christian Science proves that loving your enemy is not only possible, it is natural. But what does it look like to lead with Love, instead of hate? The study of this divine Science and answering Christ Jesus’ call to ‘love your enemies’ in your life replaces anger, hurt, and injustice with forgiveness, freedom, and peace.”


Sharing examples of healing from her own life and professional practice of Christian Science, Ms. Tetreau will explain why Christian Science is both Christian and scientific, meaning that people can prove its effectiveness for themselves, as fully described in the book Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, written by the founder of the Christian Science movement, Mary Baker Eddy.


Ms. Tetreau will also touch on the life of Mary Baker Eddy, who came to understand, confirm, and teach what she felt was original Christian healing. Eddy herself said she was especially inspired by Jesus’ demand, “He that believes on me, the works that I do will he do also; and greater works than these will he do, because I go unto my Father” (found in the Gospel of John 14:12 in the Bible). 


For over 150 years, people around the world have worked to follow Christ Jesus in this practice of Christianity and continue to do so today, experiencing healings of physical ills and personal difficulties.
