On
page 87 of "Retrospection and Introspection" by Mary Baker Eddy, is found this significant statement and admonition: "Genuine Christian Scientists are, or should be, the most systematic and law-abiding people on earth, because their religion demands implicit adherence to fixed rules, in the orderly demonstration thereof.
All
who would become members of The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, or of a branch church, must subscribe to the Tenets of The Mother Church.
