THE problems presented through human relationships are of such great concern to humanity that many large newspapers regularly devote a column to these family problems and invite people to write in to the newspapers' paid advisers for aid. These counselors answer letters from those who are seeking an unbiased opinion regarding intimate situations which they do not want to discuss with anyone they know.
How wonderfully blessed Christian Scientists are in having always available a perpetual source of guidance, admonition, and instruction in human affairs! This source is the Manual of The Mother Church by Mrs. Eddy. The Manual came into being to protect, defend, and stabilize the thought and life of those who turn to Christian Science for the healing of human ills.
Mrs. Eddy recognized the necessity of this God-directed way of protecting the Church of Christ, Scientist, and its members from mortal mind that would, if unresisted, undermine the organization and would influence church members to act erroneously. The truth and the law of this divinely inspired Manual are immovably fixed in divine Principle.
