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," by Philip Harris 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. 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.
"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. Doubt will ensure failure.
"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.

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.

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.

Philip Harris has provided us with an inspiring, thought provoking view into the words spoken by Jesus, who knew The Secret and despite having shared his knowledge freely, many heard but didn't listen. This book will make you stand up on your toes and realize just how powerful the words of Jesus really were. No matter what your religious beliefs are this book will educate you to not just hear, but to listen and to apply what it is that you learn, allowing you the capability of having a bountiful and prosperous today and every day there after.

Jesus Taught It, Too! is a very well written and thought provoking book. "The Law Of Attraction" is a subjective term that can possibly be explained as "What you sow is what you reap." Phillip Harris does a brilliant job of explaining how the words of Jesus we have access to can be interpreted to help us as we search for the "truth." The truth that could possibly mean heaven is here and now on this blessed earth and is what we make of it. It is a logical theory compared to many others that promise streets paved with gold and pearly gates. This book is a must read for anyone who believes in the genius of Jesus Christ...and a Supreme Creator. It will give you one more unique insight into The Prince Of Peace and what His message was all about before it's meaning got revised to fit steadfast dogmas that require a lot of monetary donations to remain in step with Our Lord.

This is an excellent book for those who have a religious/spiritual background that may be keeping them from learning more about the Law of Attraction. It is well written. The author does an excellent job of showing that the main things taught by Jesus as recorded in the bible match perfectly with the present day main principles of the Law of Attraction. The author shows that even though the use of language has changed significantly since the time of Jesus, the meaning of the principles has not changed. As a former Episcopal Lay Reader who knows the bible fairly well, I strongly recommend this book to everyone, especially to those who may have a clergyman who is talking against the Law of Attraction out of ignorance or because he/she feels threatened by it.

After reading this book, there should be zero doubt that Jesus was so far ahead of his time that he was actually teaching what science has now conclusively proven to be a fact through quantum physics. Jesus was trying to teach people that they do have the power to accomplish far more than they ever dreamed possible. He was teaching the Law of Attraction even though he never called it that. So, this book could be considered a must read for the religious and/or spiritual person who has any doubts about the Law of Attraction.

Excellent Book!!! it was a true awakenings for me. Excellent way of explaining the law of attraction! I really enjoyed reading this book.

This review was sent to me by a Ahmed Jamal who lives in Jordan. I thought I would share it with you. "Jesus Taught It, Too is truly a beautiful book - and I rarely use the word beautiful when it comes to books! I just couldn't put it down - the combination of the message of Jesus along with Philip Harris' way of putting it in written prose is really like music to the soul. You'll just want to read it again and again."

Philip Harris takes the essence of archaic religious wisdom, and interprets a realistic translation and transition to current spiritual principles. He provides the insight and rationality to empower ourselves in today's world.
Brilliant, Inspiring and Insightful!

Steven L. Mayber "book reviewer" (Chicago,Il USA)

In a day and age where "Jesus" and "God" have practically become four letter words, author Harris dares to dig into the Bible and present Jesus to modern man in a new, non-traditional (in organized Christian church terms) fashion. Harris is a very innovative spiritualist writer, and he has done another fine job in producing this work. Drawing strictly on the quotes of Jesus from the traditionally accepted books in the New Testament of the Bible, he reveals Jesus to the reader as having been not just the appointed savior of man, but also a teacher of each and every human being's own innate birthright of godhood.

Not your every day Sunday School lesson, this one requires that you keep your mind and heart open, and your thought habits and predispositions in check. I highly recommend it.
