Christian Scientists should take their textbook into the schoolroom the
same as other teachers; they should ask questions from it, and be answered
according to it,--occasionally reading aloud from the book to corroborate
what they teach. It is also highly important that their pupils study each
lesson before the recitation.
That these essential points are ever omitted, is anomalous, when we
consider the necessity of thoroughly understanding Science, and the present
liability of deviating from absolute Christian Science.
Centuries will intervene before the statement of the inexhaustible topics
of Science and Health is sufficiently understood to be fully demonstrated.
The teacher himself should continue to study this textbook, and to
spiritualize his own thoughts and human life from this open fount of Truth
and Love.
He who sees clearly and enlightens other minds most readily, keeps his own
lamp trimmed and burning. Throughout his entire explanations he strictly
adheres to the teachings in the chapter on Recapitulation. When closing the
class, each member should own a copy of Science and Health, and continue to
study and assimilate this inexhaustible subject--Christian Science.
The opinions of men cannot be substituted for God's revelation. In times
past, arrogant pride, in attempting to steady the ark of Truth, obscured
even the power and glory of the Scriptures,--to which Science and Health is
the Key.
