By Elizabeth Clare Prophet with Erin L. Prophet

430 pages

A long time ago Christians believed in reincarnation... This groundbreaking work traces the history of reincarnation in Christianity--from Jesus and early Christians through Church councils and the persecution of so-called heretics. Using the latest scholarship and evidence from the Dead Sea Scrolls and Gnostic texts, it also argues persuasively that Jesus was a mystic who taught that our destiny is to unite with the God within. Your view of Jesus--and of Christianity--will never be the same.

"Interesting and accessible, this book on reincarnation is an imaginative and provocative study of one way of looking at being 'born again.' Elizabeth Clare Prophet's assertion that not only mystical Gnostics but also a Jewish wisdom teacher like Jesus taught reincarnation is sure to rattle your karmic chain."
--Marvin Meyer, author of The Gospel of Thomas: The Hidden Sayings of Jesus

"Throughout the ages Christians have sought to bring the doctrinal stepchild of reincarnation into the mainstream of accepted belief. This massively documented work is a readable and highly sympathetic account of those men and women of good faith who have sensed that the Christian soul is on a millennial journey toward divine union."

--Quincy Howe, Ph.D., author of Reincarnation for the Christian Elizabeth Clare Prophet founded Summit University Press, which celebrated its 25th anniversary at the turn of the millennium. The Prophets' books are now translated into 23 languages and distributed in more than 33 markets.

Mrs. Prophet has been featured in the United States on NBC's Ancient Prophecies and A&E's The Unexplained and has talked about her work on Donahue, Larry King Live, Nightline, Sonya Live and CNN & Company. She lives in Bozeman, Montana.

Into the Next Life

By Rachel Myking, Richmond, VA

This book will change your life and expand your mind! Reincarnation: The Missing Link In Christianity is all about bringing the true meaning behind Jesus' teachings while at the same time examining who this man, Jesus Christ, really was. Everyone knows of how Jesus was resurrected from the grave, but what this book suggests is that Jesus always preached and taught rebirth through Reincarnation for his entire life. Ive always been a personal believer in reincarnation and always thought it was difficult that my beliefs conflicted with the Christian faith I was raised in. I first came to the Universal Life Church because I was interested in the idea that were all children of the same universe, and that no one religion is the one right faith. In Reincarnation: The Missing Link In Christianity, Elizabeth Clare Prophet with Erin L. Prophet, have shown how true this is, as even Christ had ideas about reincarnation. This is an essential read for any Christian or believer in Reincarnation.
