WATCH

Robert Ellis Key

Those who search for the truth find it. The Master, Christ Jesus, said (Matt. 7:7), "Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you." The honest inquirer is led step by step into all truth.

Fundamentally a Christian Scientist's loyalty is to God and His Christ. When this loyalty is present, God's answer to prayer is assured. As a student of this Science pursues his quest for the truth, he may be assailed by many subtle arguments and suggestions intended to weaken his trust in God, Truth, and to rob him of his joy and enthusiasm in serving the Church which Mary Baker Eddy established.

Truth is precious, and consequently the price to be paid for it is high. Truth demands the qualities of honesty, purity, self-renunciation, loyalty, and, certainly as much as any other, watchfulness. Christ Jesus evidently considered watchfulness a universal requirement, for he said, "What I say unto you I say unto all, Watch" (Mark 13:37).
