The Practitioner and His Fee

Carl J. Welz

When Christ Jesus sent disciples to do healing work, he implied that they should expect to receive from those who benefited by their labors whatever they needed to sustain them humanly. He said, "The labourer is worthy of his hire" (Luke 10:7).

If a Christian Scientist has entered the practice of Christian healing, it is imperative that he regard it as a holy calling, in a category above that of the ordinary laborer and above the level of commercial enterprise, in which time and wages are computed on a material basis.
