A SACRED RULE

BETTY G. MELICHAR

Success in any endeavor depends largely on how carefully one follows the rules. A successful cook knows how to follow a recipe. A dependable navigator charts his course according to the rules of navigation. A musician cannot succeed without a knowledge of the fundamental rules, or laws, of harmony. An earnest student of Christian Science may ask, "What are the rules we must follow in practicing Christian Science?"

Christian Science is an exact Science, subject to proof. It is the immutable law of God, bringing healing and redemption to mankind. Its rules must inevitably lead one to health and harmony.

In the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, we find this important rule (p. 568): "Self-abnegation, by which we lay down all for Truth, or Christ, in our warfare against error, is a rule in Christian Science." In this rule Mrs. Eddy epitomizes the teachings and ministry of our great Master, Christ Jesus.
