Seeing the Perfect Man

An attorney-at-law engaged to represent a client in court draws on his accumulated knowledge of jurisprudence. He also turns to legal textbooks for scientific guidance. These include directions as to the procedure which he should follow to present his case to the best advantage.

Christian Science practitioners are likewise engaged to invoke the spiritual law applicable to what is termed a case, so that the one in bondage to false, material beliefs may regain his freedom. And similarly the practitioner immediately draws upon his accumulated understanding of the truth that makes men free and at the same time refers to the textbook of Christian Science, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," and other writings by Mary Baker Eddy, for counterfacts and precedent.

The practitioner never loses sight of the counsel and example which Christ Jesus left for his followers. And the Christian Scientist is continuously grateful for the revelation which enabled Mrs. Eddy to explain scientifically and practically the healings which he effected by virtue of his complete understanding of the law of God, the law of Life, Truth, and Love.
