In the Bible and in the writings of Mrs. Eddy are many references to the importance of a good foundation, a foundation of Truth. Christ Jesus brought home this point with a parable (Luke 6:47, 48), "Whosoever cometh to me, and heareth my sayings, and doeth them, I will shew you to whom he is like: he is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock."
