An Open Door Which No One Can Close

“See, I have set before you an open door,
and no one can shut it…”

Revelation 3:8

The Always Open Doors
         The open door refers to God’s providence that no one can prevent. The providence includes the gates of heaven, which are always open. To be able to walk through the gates of heaven, people should study Spiritual Science.
         The gates of heaven include the following:
  1. Jesus,
    who is the Way, the Truth and Life.

  2. Your heart.
    Keep your heart open, by praying with Psalm 24:7-10

    7 Lift up your heads, O you gates!
    And be lifted up, you everlasting doors!
    And the King of glory shall come in.
    8 Who is this King of glory?
    The LORD strong and mighty,
    The LORD mighty in battle.
    9 Lift up your heads, O you gates!
    Lift up, you everlasting doors!
    And the King of glory shall come in.
    10 Who is this King of glory?
    The LORD of hosts,
    He is the King of glory.
    Psalms 24:7-10

  3. Silence.
    Silence is the abode of God. That is why God says

    "Be still, and know that I am God..."
    Psalms 46:10

  4. Quiet time.
    In quietness, your soul is able to leave the body and enter the kingdom of heaven. That is why I say,

    Silence is the abode of God,
    and quietness, the gateway into His presence.

  5. Astral travel.
    It is possible for people living on earth to visit heaven from time to time, while they are still on earth. The real problem is that people do not know how to do so. And the religious leaders hinder spiritual progress by not studying Spiritual Science.

  6. Meditation.
    By practicing meditation, people increase the level of their vibration. At higher level of vibration, a spirit can leave the body and visit heaven, or have the spiritual eye opened to see what is happening inside the heaven. Meditation is the habit of patient thinking.

  7. No one is ever alone.
    Jesus has been standing by everybody’s side, talking to people, but you do not see or hear Him because they are spiritually dead.

  8. Earnest desire.
    Jesus said, “… for where your treasure is, there your heart is”. And I add, “Where your heart is, there you are”.
             Again, Jesus said that you shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free. Indeed, you shall be amazed when you know the truth. And reading one book is not enough.
             The real problem is that people do not seek for the Truth. They are more interested in playing religious politics, which is nothing but hypocrisy, than in seeking for the Truth. In short, people do not have time for God.

  9. Death is an open door.
    Death is not the end of life, and birth is not the beginning of life.

  10. Bread and wine.
    Bread becomes the body of Jesus, and wine becomes His blood. The body is life, while the blood is power and victory. Therefore, be regular in taking the body and blood of Jesus, from time to time.

  11. The beautiful tunnel.
    This is the way by which people leave this world to return to heaven, in spirit. That is at death. No evil spirit can tamper with the tunnel because the Holy Spirit is a shield round about it. The sky. People do not know that the sky is a gate of heaven. I have passed through it, in spirit, several times. That is why God placed rainbow on the clouds, to remind his children of the way back to home, which is heaven and their Father’s kingdom. It is quite unfortunate that people do not know that the sky is a vast play field which God provided for His children.

  12. Selfless services.
    Serving other sets you free from the world, so that at death you ascend to heaven. And you shall not have to be reborn into this world of illusion wherein is birth, disease, decay and death in a cyclic (repeating) form called reincarnation.

  13. Holiness.
    Nobody can please God without holiness. God is so holy that nothing defiled can enter into his presence.
