The law of attraction itself is not contradictory with christianity. It is how and what we use it for that could make it unscriptural.If one uses it in line with scriptural principles it can work for one's good and there is nothing wrong with it |
Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism are all in The Process and go back as far back into antiquity than people realise. This is more evident in each of the main religions - "offshoot" religions (Gnosticism, Sufism etc).
I will not even mention the possibility that all mainstream religions are derived from one source as that will be very contriversial.
However it depends on HOW you read the books as to what you will find. For Christians read Florence Scovel Schinn's book The Game of Life and How to Play it. She was a Christian that taught The Process, she quotes various parts of the Bible to support her faith. Its quite obvious to see that ALL the main prophets in ALL religions in the past have exercised The Process in its absolute form!! Its amazing.
The links are all there ... in my opinion there is no such thing as duality ... there is the absolute non-duality, the unity of all things and all people. Crazy but thats what the core truth of all religions and The Process shows us that.
Again to repeat this is just MY view, not intended to upset, anger or worry people. There is no such thing as "truth", its our experience
