Editorial Reviews

Review

The Law of Attraction is not a newly revealed secret, it was taught by a very humble man of God more than 2000 years ago. "Jesus Taught It, Too: The Early Roots of the Law of Attraction," presents a compelling argument that the Law of Attraction is not a modern paradigm shift. Harris portrays the teachings of Jesus and his followers as a mindset that requires knowing one's inner meaning that comes from the heart. Jesus, referenced in multiple scriptural references, espoused the firm belief that faith is based on knowing...not hoping. Harris' in-depth research of Biblical scripture and history offers unique perspectives and well-founded premises to support his discussion of Jesus' simple message. According to Harris, Jesus taught that we live in a unified universe, free of judgment, in which we are seeking our individual spirituality. Organized religion is a man-made institution that teaches the faithful about the dogma of good, evil, sin and a punitive God. -."Jesus Taught It, Too..." explores the concept that a true meditative state is found only when you are free of emotional, spiritual, and physical baggage. Through the recognition that God is not exclusionary you can reap physical, spiritual, mental, and emotional wealth. "Jesus Taught It, Too..." presents complex theocratic beliefs in simple, straight-forward language. The Law of Attraction addresses the powerful influence of positive thinking in the acquisition of physical and material needs. Jesus taught that by applying these same principals to one's spiritual life, one's physical and material needs will be met as a natural result of their application. Harris challenges the reader to "believe in the best with an inner conviction...and it will manifest in your life." This book's intriguing but down-to-earth message will appeal to any reader seeking to broaden their spiritual horizon.

Harris' in-depth research of Biblical scripture and history offers unique perspectives and well-founded premises to support his discussion of Jesus' simple message. According to Harris, Jesus taught that we live in a unified universe, free of judgment, in which we are seeking our individual spirituality. Organized religion is a man-made institution that teaches the faithful about the dogma of good, evil, sin and a punitive God. The New Age movement is not truly new, according to Harris. Since the early 1800's the movement has taught the power of positive thinking and positive affirmations and has included such followers as Alcott, Emerson and Thoreau. Man has sought to analyze spiritual thought and seek their inner Christ through visualization since the Apostles first sat at the foot of their Master.

5.0 out of 5 stars Remarkable!, August 12, 2007

By 

Brian Doe - See all my reviews

This review is from: Jesus Taught It Too: The Early Roots of the Law of Attraction (Paperback)

For those who reject the secret of the universe in favor of religious speculation, here's a sermon of universal truth from the master prophet Himself. There will be no denying this evidence. From the agnostic to the evangelical, if this doesn't convince you, nothing will. Harris' work is easy to read and digest. He offers sometimes complex ideas in accesible ways so that any reader of any age can grasp the meaning of his words. This is a remarkable read, a must-read.

5.0 out of 5 stars LET THE LAW OF ATTRACTION WORK FOR YOU, July 18, 2010

Salvatore Buttaci "Salvatore Buttaci, author ... (Princeton, WV) - See all my reviews

This review is from: JESUS TAUGHT IT, TOO!: THE EARLY ROOTS OF THE LAW OF ATTRACTION (Paperback)

What Philip Harris succeeds in doing in this remarkable book, Jesus Taught It, Too... is teach readers how to improve their own lives by learning and applying the Law of Attraction. Though a simple concept, one that has been practiced, and also sadly ignored, for milennia. The author explains how Jesus himself preached this very law. All good things come to those who do good things.

You will be mesmerized by the content of this book. And you will want to race out there and thank Harris for putting you in touch with one of life's basic and life-enhancing laws.

Buy a copy. You won't regret it.
