CHRISTIAN SCIENCE: THE OPEN DOOR TO UNIVERSAL BROTHERHOOD

From the February 1943 issue of The Christian Science Journal


There is a yearning in the heart of every man to know more about his true being and to gain a sense of peace and quiet away from the turmoil of material living. Perhaps the remedy for health outside of material means is being sought, perhaps release from disappointment is calling for some satisfactory answer, or maybe that everlasting quest for God, in which every mortal finds himself engaged during his mental pilgrimage, is stirring in one's consciousness.

If one is sincere, these longings will be unfailingly satisfied as thought is turned steadfastly away from temporal things to the power of God, which constitutes real substance, and awakens thought to the truth about spiritual being.

To the Church of Christ, Scientist, come seekers from all walks of life who hope to find comfort and solace from the discordant conditions confronting them. Mary Baker Eddy, through her love for mankind and her great desire to alleviate the suffering of humanity, was prepared through many years of prayer to receive the revelation she called Christian Science, which illumines the Bible's inspiring promises of God's healing power. The many activities instituted by Mrs. Eddy are open to the seeker, and if receptivity is coupled with faith there will come an awakening to the fact that the healing, hope, and comfort which have taken the place of illness, despair, and disheartenment, result from the operation of the law of God, Life, Truth, and Love. This faith steadfastly adhered to opens the door to spiritual heights of inspiration and the power of divine Love.
