The Open Door

Violet Ker Seymer

To everyone today this assurance of inspiration and succor recorded by Isaiah is practically available: "I the Lord ... will ... give thee ... for a light of the Gentiles; to open the blind eyes, to bring out the prisoners from the prison, and them that sit in darkness out of the prison house." The "I," the power of God operating through Christ, Truth, reveals to men the open door of freedom through spiritual understanding.

In "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" Mrs. Eddy writes (p. 99): "Truth has furnished the key to the kingdom, and with this key Christian Science has opened the door of the human understanding. None may pick the lock nor enter by some other door."

He who would gain health, purity, and peace on the unshakable foundation of Spirit can do so by grasping and applying the truths contained in the Christian Science textbook. Thus enlightened, he can exchange material self-deception and bondage for spiritual understanding and dominion. More than can be numbered are the individuals who have been and are being blessed with new ideals and means of attainment through their application of Christian Science, the truth of being, to every human problem.
