" The law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ," declared John. United in having the same source of inspiration, both the Decalogue and the gospel of our Master are revelations of divine law.

In the Manual of The Mother Church in Article XX, which governs all Christian Science Sunday Schools, our beloved Leader has put forward a wonderful concept of spiritual education.
