But it often thought that belief in reincarnation and Christianity are incompatible. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBut is this really true? May a Christian believe in reincarnation? The answer may surprise you.Reincarnation-also known as the transmigration of souls-is not just some exotic idea of non-Christian mysticism. Nor is it an exclusively Hindu-Buddhist teaching. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn orthodox Jewish and early Christian writings, as well as the Holy Scriptures, we find reincarnation as a fully developed belief, although today it is commonly ignored. But from the beginning it has been an integral part of Orthodox Judaism, and therefore as Orthodox Jews, Jesus and his Apostles would have believed in rebirth.This historical study of reincarnation in both Judaism and Christianity cites many authorities of both traditions, including many Christian saints and Fathers of the Church, as well as both Old and New Testaments. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn our opinion the testimony of orthodox Judaism, ancient Christianity, and the Bible is sufficient to answer the question: May a Christian believe in reincarnation? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIncluded in this second edition is Annie Besant's article on various scientific, moral, and historical aspects of reincarnation from a Christian perspective.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Annie Besant, Abbot George (Swami Nirmalananda Giri)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1523376295\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781523376292\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/05\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 90\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.27lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.22d","brand":"Annie Besant","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43985464754431,"sku":"9781523376292","price":8.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_dfbaada2-dc47-4a13-9647-0c16d84c5d7d.jpg?v=1683277728","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/may-a-christian-believe-in-annie-besant-9781523376292","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
