THINGS THAT HELP

In all the walks of life men and women are looking for things which will help them along the way. Few persons would be content to remain just where they are. The desire for better things is almost if not quite universal. The desire to do better work, to be more successful in one's life-mission, to improve one's condition and surroundings, is a worthy ambition; and if all efforts in that direction are in accordance with the spirit of the golden rule, the endeavor is praiseworthy.

The Christian religion is quite generally regarded as one of the things which have contributed most largely to humanity's good, and is in no small degree responsible for the material prosperity that is today enjoyed, as well as for the moral and spiritual freedom which has been attained. Moreover, it is believed that if Christianity entered more largely into human activities,—business and social, as well as religious,—still greater good would result. Those of us who know something of Christian Science, because we have experienced in various ways the healing and saving power of Truth, know that Christianity is practical and that it is effectual.

Inasmuch as men have recognized this practical worth of Christianity they have looked for that which would help them to attain it. They have devoted themselves more or less earnestly to the study of the Bible. This book is considered the only reliable source of religious instruction. The Bible declares that "holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost;" and again, "All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness; that the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works."
