Can you really blend Christianity with New Age thought? Everything can be done, but how well it will be taken is a far better question. James Twyman finds an approach to do simply that as part of his latest book, The Moses Code. The overall idea is the fact that Law of Attraction works as a system of God. In this sense, obviously, God must have to do with all things, the all-knowing creative. In external manifest, God appeared to Moses and divulged to him a quick yet stunning revelation. God shared with Moses that the particular name for this voice talking to him is/was I AM. I AM THAT I AM.
As Twyman indicates, the implications are long and wide! There is not any "name" per se, just an affirmation. An intention of being. Who are you? I AM. Exactly what is that happening before me? I AM. Who can I tell them sent me? Explain that I AM sent you. This revelation becomes the point of interest for "intentions," or declaration of wanted situations, and this offers a very effective association between Christianity and New Thought.
On a personalized level, the spiritual factor that Twyman indicates within the Moses Code intrigues me. Since I was old enough to learn from the Bible on my own, I was always intrigued by the name that God offered to Moses when he asked for it. "I AM THAT I AM. Tell them that I AM sent you." The name becomes an idea that transcends ordinary interpretation. It begets the question of what designed everything. Not who, but what. The greater level produced from focusing on the "I AM," is that it's really a thought. Thought developed all things.
Twyman offers that you state the name of the creator and progress from stages of ego, to soul, and ultimately onto unity with your creator. From "you are," on to "I am." So now your thought is unified along with the creator's, or as an advancement of conscience in yourself will reveal, you are the Creator. YOU ARE. I AM. It’s easily progressed towards the theory of Subjective Reality.
More specific on the subject issue, though, in exploring that vast concept, along with its process to get there, Twyman suggests meditating using the name. Utilizing it to claim that which is a desire of yours, an intention. Just think on the desire, exhale while using the words, "I AM THAT," and inhale while using the words, "I AM." In my experience to this point, merely that act by itself develops concentration, and focus. I've enjoyed using it as a center of attention during my intentional breathing and thought, and as a Christian in my youth, well indoctrinated in the teaching within the Bible, I'm astounded by the link that The Moses Code draws with the Law of Attraction and New Thought.
