Right-Wiseness
When one is endeavoring to become a Christian Scientist worthy the name, it soon becomes apparent that each thought must be carefully weighed, and although this process may presently become so natural that it is accomplished in many instances without conscious effort, still each day affords opportunity to use the knowledge already attained, and compels the student to gain more if he would solve the advanced problems in the right way. The warning against the error of self-righteousness is well-defined throughout the Bible and also in the writings of Mrs. Eddy, especially in "Feed My Sheep," which we find in her Poems (p. 14), in the second stanza of which she says:—
Thou wilt bind the stubborn will,
Wound the callous breast,
Make self-righteousness be still,
Break earth's stupid rest.
