Science and Health, its author, and its authority

From the February 1986 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Any book that has inspired redemption and healing for thousands of people must be the outcome of God. This is true of the Bible. And it is true of Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mrs. Eddy. Science and Health companions with the Bible in fulfillment of Biblical prophecy, completing God's revelation of His healing law, divine Science.

Although the Old Testament reveals divine knowledge and law, this was too often lost sight of through misinterpretation. To those literalists who contributed to perpetuating the obscuring of God's spiritual law, Christ Jesus said, "Woe unto you, lawyers! for ye have taken away the key of knowledge."Luke 11:52 .

Divine Science, the law of God, was fully comprehended by the Son of God—"he that hath the key of David."Rev. 3:7 . Jesus practiced God's healing law with sublime authority and marvelous healing and redeeming effect. And he promised that God would send "another Comforter" to guide us into all truth.See John 14:16; 16:13 .
