Book Description
This book is written with the sincere conviction that it will convey a message other than the one we have been led to accept about Biblical and other ancient texts. It may change your experience in the way you view life and the concept of God and religion, as well as your relationship with those beliefs. This book is about ancient principles contained in the Bible and many other documents inscribed long ago, such as the Nag Hammadi Library and the Dead Sea Scrolls. Words paint mental pictures that enfold in our minds, and we call this "getting answers." At times, we take these images as the only truth there is, since we can see or imagine it. We base this personally conceived truth on what we learn in life. Should we not ask ourselves: what if all this is based on falsehoods? These mental illustrations - that we call "thoughts" - are founded solely on what we have seen or read. Most of the time, we compare them, and in this fashion, we develop personal beliefs according to our choices. This practice is not specifically reserved for the individual. It spreads throughout our society, when each and every human experiences the same event or feeling, or reads a similar book. As a result, the collective mindset - sometimes called the "over mind" - now generates large-scale belief systems that, in time, we have termed as "religion." Entire nations have been known to bond in the same creed. Even when founded with the best of intentions, these systems tend to bind us as a group, with one mindset going in one direction, while offering no other alternatives. In some respects, this direction may not necessarily be the best or ideal goal toward which we can journey. It does limit us in the centuries-old matter pertaining to God or the God Head, and it affects our individual experience. It also influences what we know about the ancient teachers and prophets of long ago.

Book Description
A metaphysical interpretation of the New Testament, which teaches oneness as the only truth, and surrender (or letting go) as the practice that leads to spiritual enlightenment. NTI stresses the importance of willingness, acceptance, gratitude, mind-watching and trust on the path of enlightenment while teaching the reader to let go of unworthiness, fear, guilt and false (or separation-based) thinking. NTI has been described as a love letter and as a loving approach to letting go of the ego. Following on from the strength of A Course in Miracles NTI teaches us how to experience the oneness of God here and now by showing us exactly how to release the obstacles that prevent us from having that experience.

Book Description
Jesus the Christ was an enlightened teacher of consciousness. Like the Buddha and other enlightened beings over the ages, he was born to this world to show us how to master our minds, to teach us how to inwardly align ourselves to a Universal, Infinite, Loving, Creative Intelligence, and to demonstrate how to master the Law of Cause and Effect. "Let's Get Metaphysical" digs deeper into the teachings of Jesus to unearth Divine Truth. Jesus spoke in code, requiring us to turn inward, reflect, and de-code the metaphysical Truth behind his teachings. Like the morning sun, the hidden meaning in Jesus' parables rises and enlightens when you see it with your inner spiritual eyes and listen with your spiritual ears. Jesus was teaching us about love, forgiveness, ego relinquishment, true and false belief systems, mental and physical healing, faith, oneness, humility, mindfulness, the illusion of past and future, commitment, persistence, affirmative prayer, the Law of Attraction, the Law of Circulation, and the Law of Substance. These are the spiritual principles culled from Jesus' teachings and written about in "Let's Get Metaphysical."

Book Description
From the introduction. Neville Goddard's Interpretation of Scripture is a compilation from Neville's 10 books and a few of his lectures. In my opinion Neville decoded the Bible in such a light that the truth can finally be known. Many who enjoy the old familiar verses of Scripture are discouraged when they themselves try to read the Bible as they would any other book because, quite excusably, they do not understand that the Bible is written in the language of symbolism. Not knowing that all of its characters are personifications of the laws and functions of mind; that the Bible is psychology rather than history, they puzzle their brains over it for a while and then give up. It is all too mystifying. To understand the significance of its imagery, the reader of the Bible must be imaginatively awake. - Neville Goddard Hardcover Edition

Book Description
How can it be that you are in the Bible? It is a mirror in which you can see yourself. The Apostle Paul said we would see dimly at first and then face to face. When you spiritually interpret what you read in the Bible, you will more clearly understand your amazing relationship to God. The Bible is an enjoyable reference book for your life, once you have some tools with which to bring to light its true meaning. It is also a sacred text written by inspired teachers who expressed it in the context of the ancient civilization in which they lived. And yet it is the story of your inner development as well. Metaphysical or Spiritual Interpretation is the clearest, most uplifting and useful way to understand the Bible's message to you.
