Books in Unity Classic Library series

Unity believes that we can best keep Lent by denying ourselves not "things" but negative thoughts and feelings. Through prayer and study, we can contemplate the resurrection experience and practice its principles in our lives.Charles Fillmore provides seventeen powerful essays to help the reader prepare for a spiritual journey, and he includes a thought-provoking lesson for each day of the Lenten season. Keep a True Lent includes a day-by-day study guide and daily affirmation to help the reader make the best use of this period of self-reflection and prayer and guides each reader toward a spiritual awakening and resurrection of his or her own.

The Twelve Powers combines two popular Unity books: The Twelve Powers of Man by Charles Fillmore and a companion piece, Christ Enthroned in Man by Cora Dedrick Fillmore.When Charles Fillmore studied the life, teachings, death, and Resurrection of Jesus, he discovered twelve power that, when developed, can lead to a life of unspeakable joy and glory. Fillmore wrote The Twelve Powers of Man to explain metaphysically these twelve human powers or faculties and the process of regeneration as taught by Jesus Christ.The book includes Scripture references, an index, and questions for each chapter that help the reader learn how to develop those twelve powers and experience physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual renewal and regeneration.This is one of Fillmore's most profound books and challenges the serious metaphysical student as well as those seeking in-depth understanding of mind, body, and spirit.

Affirmation is the core of prayer practice as taught by Jesus. In this understanding of prayer, Jesus raised us from being mere beggers, asking for things of the physical world from a God "out there." Instead, he united us with our Source--our Father--reminding us that we are sons and daughers of the very essence of all that is, that we have direct and constant acces to all we will ever need.In this book, Charles and Cora Fillmore break down the practice of prayer for us, expose its components, and show us how to tap into a level of consciousness that will ultimately go beyond beseeching, even beyond affirming, to being in the Christ consciousness.In learning how to pray, we learn the importance of communicating with God through practicing affirmations and by entering the silence. Through these and other techniques, including six-day prayer treatments, we arrive at ultimate communion with our Source.

Here is Unity cofounder Charles Fillmore's first book, originally published by Unity in 1909, in which we find his early ideas on the Twelve Powers, the seminal concept of his whole metaphysics. We also see how he originally formulated Unity to be a movement of universal spiritual science based on principles that could be proved and demonstrated.Here also is the sense of Unity as a great mystical tradition that draws from all religions and all faiths. While Charles used the word Christian in his title because to him the book was based on the teachings of Jesus Christ, he did not want to be limited by any sense of being denominational. Charles saw Unity as transdenominational, as helping people find the Truth in every tradition.Charles Fillmore clearly saw Unity as a spiritual science that needed to be practiced, not merely believed in or obeyed. The statements that follow each chapter in this book are not meant merely to be read, but applied to daily living. He intended this book to be a manual of mental disciplines that anyone could use to foster spiritual healing through the use of denials and affirmations.Christian Healing is a foundational work for Unity and New Thought teachings.

Genesis is the first book of the Bible of Judaism and of Christianity, and the first of five books of the Pentateuch or Torah. It recounts Judeo-Christian beliefs regarding the world from creation to the descent of the children of Israel into Egypt, and contains some of the best-known stories of the Old Testament, including Adam and Eve, Cain and Abel, Noah's Ark, the Tower of Babel, and the biblical Patriarchs.For Jews the theological importance of Genesis centers on the Covenants linking God to his Chosen People and the people to the Promised Land. Christianity has reinterpreted Genesis as the prefiguration of Christian beliefs, notably the Christian view of Christ as the new Adam and the New Testament as the culmination of the covenants.Structurally, Genesis consists of a "primeval history" (Genesis 1-11) and cycles of Patriarchal stories. The narrative of Joseph stands apart from these. It appears to have reached its final form in the 5th century BC, with a previous history of composition reaching back possibly to the 10th century. Religious Jews, Christians and Muslims believe that the book has its origins in divine revelation.
