What Is New Thought? New Thought Christianity is a
Practical Christianity that empowers people to realize their
potential by becoming consciously aware of Spirit within them.
New Thought teaches universal spiritual principles that enable
people to build happy and prosperous lives.
New Thought helps people to change their circumstances by
changing their thoughts, feelings and beliefs.
What is our Core Text? The Holy Bible is the primary
text of the Divinity Center We interpret the Bible
allegorically in order to discover the teachings embedded
within the scriptures. We believe the Bible offers nourishment
for the soul, and we use its lessons as reminders of our
divine origin and purpose. In addition to the Bible, we study
the teachings and writings of leading New Thought philosophers
and scholars including Charles Fillmore and Dr. H. Emilie
Cady.
What is Metaphysics?
Metaphysics
is defined as “the systematic study of the science of Being;
that which transcends the physical. By pure metaphysics is
meant a clear understanding of the realm of ideas and their
legitimate expression.” (Fillmore)

WE BELIEVE that it is God’s
will that every individual on the face of this
earth should live a healthy, happy and prosperous
life.
WE BELIEVE that such a life is within the
reach of each one of us and the way to its
attainment begins with the realization that the
Kingdom of God is within us waiting for us to
bring it unto expression.
WE BELIEVE that we can bring this Kingdom
forth by practicing the universal spiritual
principles handed down through the ages and taught
by our Way-Shower, Jesus Christ.
WE BELIEVE with Jesus that our experiences are
the reflections of our beliefs and therefore the
key to happy and successful living is right
thinking followed by right action.
WE BELIEVE with Jesus that the basis for right
thinking is LOVE – love of God and all that is
good in our fellowmen (all others) and ourselves.
WE BELIEVE that learning to listen to the
whispering of the “still small voice” within us
will ensure that we are guided into right action.
WE BELIEVE that rather than devoting our
primary efforts to providing for the needy of the
world, the time has come to make available to all
people everywhere a teaching that will enable them
to provide for themselves by learning to release
the divine potential within them.
WE BELIEVE that the Divinity Center and the
Universal Foundation for Better Living is a
vehicle for the spreading of such a teaching.
WE BELIEVE that a mighty new wind is blowing.
People everywhere are hungry for practical
techniques that will show them how to fulfill the
good desires of their hearts. We in the Divinity
Center and the Universal Foundation for Better
Living believe that we have these techniques and
we offer them to everyone without distinction,
confident that with the help of the Holy Spirit,
we can teach all who are willing to learn how to
overcome whatever would keep them from their
highest good.
WE BELIEVE IN GOD!
WE BELIEVE IN HUMANITY!
WE BELIEVE IN THE DIVINITY CENTER & THE
UNIVERSAL FOUNDATION FOR BETTER LIVING!
