An Introduction to the Law of Attraction, a Christian Perspective

What is the "The Law of Attraction"?

Simply put, the law of attraction states that whatever we think, do or say will result in a change in our universe, a change in our personal world, a change in our circumstance.

How old is the law of attraction? In recent years there have been many books authored and CD’s produced about "The Law of Attraction". Many of these writings and productions make "The Law of Attraction" sound like it’s something new, perhaps even new age. This is simply NOT TRUE!

Over the centuries individuals have studied the bible and had part of the law of attraction revealed to them. Their "new" revelation inspired them to write a book about the law of attraction or the power of our thoughts.

The "Law of Attraction" is not something new it has been around since the beginning of time.

Read the story of creation: Genesis 1:3

Then God said, "Let there be light," and there was light. Night and day didn’t just happen. God thought about it, stated what he wanted, and made it happen. That is the law of attraction in action, thoughts and actions become physical things.

Read the story of Adam and Eve: Genesis 3:23

The Lord God therefore banished him from the Garden of Eden, to till the ground from which he ad been taken. Adam and Eve attracted the wrath of God through their thoughts and actions. As a result, they were ejected from the Garden of Eden and destined to struggle in life. Had they not eaten from the tree of knowledge, they would not have bee ejected from the Garden of Eden and their lives would have been substantially easier.

Does the law of attraction still work today?
Think about it……
Does our house suddenly change color? No, we decide what color we want and take action to get the house painted. Do we get a speeding ticket when we drive at the speed limit? No, our action of going to fast results in a speeding ticket.

Everything that happens in our lives is a result of a decision that we have made and an action that we have taken. Sometimes the results of our actions are seen immediately and at other times it takes a while for the results to manifest. Some people call those things waiting to manifest karma.

Nothing happens by accident or coincidence, but only as a result of our thoughts and actions. That is the law of attraction in action.
