THE TENETS

JUDGE SEPTIMUS J. HANNA.

THE tenets of The Mother Church should be frequently and carefully studied by all who desire to live and prove the teachings of Christian Science not only for their own growth and aid, but for the information they are thereby enabled to impart to others. Moreover, an intelligent grasp of these tenets greatly aids the Scientist in correcting misapprehensions and misrepresentations of the teachings of the Christian Science text-book, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," in which these tenets are incorporated. (See page 497.) Their brief consideration may be helpful in the connection mentioned:—

"1. As adherents of Truth, we take the inspired Word of the Bible as our sufficient guide to eternal Life."

This tenet completely negatives all charges to the effect that Christian Scientists do not believe the Bible to be of God and divinely inspired. The fact is that all true Christian Scientists accept the Bible, in its spiritual import, without the slightest mental reservation. They endeavor most earnestly to make it in fact and in deed their "sufficient guide to eternal Life."
