The 12 Powers of Man (Annotated)
Enriched Edition. A New Thought Guide to Twelve Spiritual Faculties, Biblical Symbolism, and Inner Christ ConsciousnessBy Charles Fillmore
Length5h 31m
About this audiobook
The 12 Powers of Man is a concise but ambitious work of Christian metaphysics, presenting the human being as endowed with twelve divine faculties awaiting conscious development. Fillmore interprets the apostles as symbolic correspondences to powers such as faith, strength, wisdom, love, imagination, will, order, zeal, renunciation, life, and understanding. Written in an aphoristic, devotional, and exegetical style, the book belongs to the New Thought tradition, blending biblical interpretation with practical spiritual psychology. Charles Fillmore, cofounder with Myrtle Fillmore of the Unity movement, wrote from a lifelong conviction that Christianity should be understood as an inward science of spiritual realization. His interest in healing, prayer, and the creative power of thought shaped this text's central premise: that divine capacities are not abstract doctrines but living energies within the individual. His metaphysical reading of Scripture reflects both nineteenth-century American religious innovation and a disciplined quest for practical transformation. Readers interested in esoteric Christianity, New Thought, or the symbolic interpretation of the Bible will find this book especially valuable. It is best approached not as conventional theology, but as a meditative manual for self-knowledge and spiritual cultivation.
