Legacy by James A Michener

A SCIENCE-ORIENTED JUSTIFICATION FOR A BELIEF IN CHRISTIANITY. For decades, Christians have had difficulties providing factual evidence that supports what they believe in faith. This situation could soon change, however, as a result of developments in science instead of theology. This book shows how, by changing a single premise undergirding science's understanding of reality, many of the supernatural aspects of the Bible can be explained. It addresses this claim through a new paradigm that answers:

• How God, heaven, and eternal spiritual beings could actually exist.
• The role that Christianity and other world religions play in the spiritual development process.
• How the Bible's book of Revelation describes an individual spiritual test of one's readiness for eternal life - not a battle between good and evil

This book also describes three frameworks that present the paradigm in greater detail. They cover:

1. Physical and Non-Physical Dimensions - Describing how humanity's existence on Earth integrates with the purpose for the existence of the universe.
2. Spiritual Development - Laying out a path that integrates one's intellectual understanding of faith with their life experiences and spiritual practices to produce a unique internalized spirituality.
3. Human Psychic Abilities - Demystifying telepathy, mediumship, channeling, out-of-body experiences, and psychokinesis to illustrate how spiritual beings can use these abilities to communicate, travel, and manipulate objects.

Take a trip beyond scripture to develop insights into our eternal spiritual existence that are internally consistent with Jesus's parables, the Beatitudes, and the book of Revelation - it is Christianity from a Different Perspective.
