How to Think Right Biblically
How to Think Right: imagine wanted experiences and rehearse them over and over with the attitude of excitement, faith and feeling.
There is a technology to biblical correct thinking. Correct or "right" thinking has a purpose -- it expects an effect!
Right thinking requires faith; it is believing: an active confidence in the composition of an invisible reality.
You need to know and believe that the Ineffable is a loving, spiritual power involved in all of our lives, and that this power is omnipotent, in everyone, and fully conscious of everything in the world (and for that matter, the universe). The power always loves you, always hears you, always gives you good desires, and always grants you whatever desires it has given you.
You may rightly assume that this power is in charge of everything in the universe. Itself has, in fact, become everything that exists in the universe. Everything is contained within the whole of this power.
"I will become what I desire." Exodus 3; 14 (my translation). This was Moses' realization!
Desiring for you to exist, this power has even become you, though you were then separated from consciousness of what you are by total amnesia. The power is in the process of restoring your consciousness and developing you to work with it. Correct thinking is believing as the power. In Hebrew, this is 'Israel.'
Believing is imagining with the mood of faith. We create the world around us by what we believe. The world is compelled to mirror what we believe, be it right, wrong, or indifferent. We imagine it to exist so.
"What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive, and ye shall have." Mark 11: 24.
The Bible is a virtual handbook on how to think correctly. In it the ineffable Most High creates us as God (spirit), the Heavens (mind), and the Earth (body) -- all in one. Each of us is "Adam," the power of life in both males and females. Desire focused into creative urgency (the "rib") is Eve, the mother of all living states of being. Creative urgency gives birth to two "sons": acquisition and transitoriness: Cain and Abel -- manifestation of the physically immanent from the spiritually transcendent. Neither of these is fixed and unchangeable.
A theme throughout the Bible is our spiritual "second son" continually supplants our earthly "first son." Certainly, in our youth fascination with the physical world deadens our perception of the spiritual. As we grow up and put away childish things, we turn to the spiritual. Israel can determine what transcendent state shall become the manifest environment of his life. Whatever physical state we presently occupy can be replaced by a situation we choose. Right thinking can change our state. They are ours to determine!
The power to create is ours: "The word is very nigh unto thee, in thy mouth, and in thy heart, that thou mayest do it." Deuteronomy 30: 11, 14. "As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he." Proverbs 23: 7. "If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth." Mark 9: 23. "I become." Exodus 3: 14.
The antediluvian "patriarchs" are parental states of consciousness unto the state of Noah, a rest in continence oblivious to the flood of earthly facts which would distract from Japheth, Ham, and Shem -- the causing of a wanted spiritual environment to come into manifestation to replace an unwanted physical environment. Ham is to Noah as the rib is to Adam and the sinew on the hollow of the thigh is to Jacob: the intense, focused, passionate, believing desire which exposes the seed of creation.
Don't wait for God to change your situation. He is us. The breath of power in us, which laid down its consciousness as God to become us, is the "lamb" of God. You are the lamb of God. Your mind, your imagination, is that transcendent power, and its nature is yours. Its nature rules the universe and makes all the promises of God sure and true, and yours to claim. Find them, learn them well and believe them.
"But," you ask, "how do I do it?" Imagination. We cannot think, believe, have faith, desire or in any other way be aware without imagining. It is by imagination that we sense God's word to us and catch the mood of desire and faith for its fulfillment. The imagination is our mind's interface with our spirit, and our spirit is God. The world we experience is caused by imagination: it causes our lives. This is God's experience.
Here is a simple plan formulated from It Works! author R. H. Jarrett and many lectures by Neville Goddard to help you begin to think correctly to get whatsoever you want:
1. Reconcile yourself with the loving, omniscient, omnipotent spiritual power within yourself. The Ineffable is reconciling you to itself by "the lamb," which is his connection with you. Repent from your self-lordship and believe the Gospel -- that the Ineffable's own nature is the Law of the universe. Accept imbuement with his holy spirit, his own consciousness. It does not come from somewhere else; it comes forth from within. Consciously turn your life over to Christ within you.
2. Determine exactly what things and conditions you now earnestly desire and not just wish for. The spirit gives us earnest desires for certain states: for security, confidence, serenity, well being, etc.; and for certain things: a job, a car, a family, a promotion, a healing. Any possibility may become yours.
3. Make a list of the conditions and things you want on a piece of paper. Don't scrimp on your desires. You cannot want too much. You will revise this list often; in fact, it will be open-ended
4. Read your list. Read it frequently: morning, noon and night; especially before falling to sleep
5. As often as possible, imagine experiencing the things on your list as existent. This is your work. Everything that can ever exist exists already in the "larger dimension world" of God. Imagine your prayer granted and added to you there. They say that feeling is the secret to creation. Imagine actually having the things you want and feel the sensations and emotions that arise naturally. Don't just picture yourself there, be there feeling. Work on the sensations of the experience. Feel the satisfaction of the experience and rehearse it over and over in your imagination. You are Eve giving birth to your desired state
6. Be grateful to the power which gives you all things. Express your gratitude and the rejoice with thanks. Read your list -- you are receiving all these things. That should make you most grateful
7. Don’t tell others the specifics of your list. This is not a new superstition, you just do not need people discouraging you and discrediting this plan. Skeptics will be quick to criticize and discount your every hope and try to dissuade you from thinking correctly. Don't do it to yourself. Don't tell them what you are doing. Do not tell them what is coming. Let the manifestation of your desires speak for itself. Tell them about biblical thinking and no more
8. Rest. Don't do anything by your own power to force what you want into existence. Patiently await the power to manifest your desires. This is the Sabbath, not a new superstition. You still need to plant your crops and fill out job applications and live a normal life. You will find, however, that things you petition for come into your life in perfect timing by "natural" means. The power does both miracles and "life.
9. Share your acquisition with others. Don't trust the things you acquire; trust the power which brings them. Trust the power to provide tomorrow as it has today. "Perfect love casteth out fear . . . love your brother, also." 1 John 4: 18, 21. So be brave, believe, and give
10. Share your knowledge with others. Inform others that biblical thinking is correctly believing.

I will entirely disagree with everything here. It sounds like you've elevated yourself to God and have fallen fro the same lie as the snake allured Eve in the Garden of Eden, "You will be 'like' God knowing Good and Evil'...it's the same trap many who are into psychology fall into. Beware. In doing so, the cross has been eliminated, It is not I who lives but Christ. It is not my life to Live but rather being Alive in the Life of Christ to be shaped and molded into His image, not to shape and mold myself into His by my imagination..

Stephen, Thank you for your comment. I hadn't realized how poorly the Word file displayed. I say yea and Amen to it being Christ who lives in us, and for us to be molded into His image. But that is my point. He IS our imagination, descended to the ignorance of man. Okay, if we are "Alive in the Life of Christ," let's be like Him. Rather than argue that here, I would ask you to read some of my later posts and especially my correspondence with Jake, Part II, which I plan to post tonight, 01/12/15. I ask you, too, to consider Moses composing Genesis to teach the experience he had in Exodus, that they are actually parallel accounts--that "Adam" was Moses, the "rib" his desire, "Eve" was Moses' imagining, which gave birth to "Cain," or Jethro. Moses had some pretty heavy stuff to teach; not ancient history. The Shining Serpent, if the parallel holds true, was the burning bush. Where is the devil? In our ignorance. Please don't let the oddness of this discourage you. Don't use church doctrine as your proof. WHAT DOES THE SCRIPTURE SAY? Use your Strong's Concordance and look up the definitions to the words. Disprove all of us, and hold onto only what you cannot disprove. And I'll see about rewriting this post. --Thanks.
