my inner world

I am fascinated by the relationship between thinking and feeling. I understand that cognitive-behavioural psychology is based on respecting this relationship, and is one that has helped me temper my own perception and attitudes towards life. In that regard, this book granted an apporach to reading the bible as a generalized evolution of any individuals conciousness through the valleys and mountains of challenges in the world of mental and emotional existence with respect to worshipping God. This book left me pondering how Moses (or anyone who has the wonderful experiences of drawing closer to the Lord) might have chosen to go about preserving their lifetime of experience in the form of a poetic drama that would stand the tests of time. As I put myself in this persepctive of 'any invidual', the things portrayed in the book, read like a narrative of my own struggles in life trying to put the "hard times" into perspective (e.g. why is their suffering from a loving God.) Having to choose to go on following God, even in the face of sacrficing "reason" were both the best & worst moments of my own life simultaneously. After reading this book, I was left with a feeling that said to me "you see, you are supposed to go through those confusing, painful and sad times right along with the good ones because its part of learning the power of your own discipline over your own mind through your will." I will read another book by this man, just because of this one. Questions did come up for me, but I'll just go read more books and ponder those questions further. Maybe I will end up writing a book to answer them! Any book that gets me into that frame of mind of asking good questions, I like.

Discover the secret code that unlocks .....

Wow! Discover the secret code that unlocks the hidden meanings throughout the writings of the Bible. Understanding the metaphysical interpretations of the Bible's psychological dramas is thrilling. This book helps us to understand the parables and things of the spirit as discerned by the spirit. Dr. Addington's goal is to show us that the Bible is a storehouse of inspiration designed to fit every human need, a treasure trove of usable ideas, an infinite souce of wisdom, and most of all, a book of life.

A Must Read

If you want to read the bible and not feel lost with all the characters and names, this is a wonderful resource. It will open your eyes and mind.Janette G.

Very interesting non-fiction book of 'secret' Bible 'code'.

I first discovered this book while scouring used book stores to review written material in reference to my Bible studies. It caught my eye because this is the exact title I was going to use for my own thesis. It is the compilation of Mr. Addingtons years of work in which he uses his extensive knowlege acquired through years of Bible teaching and studies. You follow him through his discovery of a code existing in the Bible in which one is able to follow the 'path of enlightenment'. This path of enlightenment is the same path which the 'mystics' used in their religion .. if one can call it that. The book is written and explained in such a way as one is able to check and correlate all of which Mr. Addington states. The book brings the true meaning of the Bible out of its cloak of death and judgment into the light of ones' ability to change oneself into the 'perfect' person by a method which one can easily understand.
