MAN'S BIRTHRIGHT IS DOMINION

The record of creation given in the first chapter of Genesis is the foundation of Christian Science. Its clear exposition of God as the only cause and creator includes an account of the man of God's creating and gives to him two very important characteristics. The first one is Godlikeness, for man is made in God's image and likeness. The second is dominion and is consequent to the first. It is important for us to recognize and take advantage of man's full heritage, bestowed upon him by his creator.

There are many accounts in the Bible of accomplishments and healings experienced by those who recognized and made use of their God-given dominion. It was through her understanding and use of this same dominion that Mary Baker Eddy was able to show the powerlessness of all material opposition when she wrote the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," and founded and established the Christian Science organization, now world-wide in scope. The study of this textbook gives Mrs. Eddy's followers an understanding of God's power and enables them to prove its practicality in bringing health, happiness, and success into their experiences.
