This profound volume delves into the mystical and metaphysical teachings of Jacob Boehme, the 17th-century German mystic whose visionary insights reshaped Christian esotericism. In Personal Christianity a Science, Boehme presents his central conviction that true spiritual knowledge comes not from ecclesiastical institutions or intellectual study, but from inward divine illumination. Describing himself as "God-taught," Boehme offers a theology built upon personal experience, spiritual alchemy, and cosmic polarity. The book explores themes such as the nature of good and evil, the spiritual structure of the universe, the fall of man, and the path to redemption through inner transformation. He outlines a worldview in which all of creation is interlinked through divine emanation, and in which the soul's journey toward unity with God is both a science and an art. Though written in the cryptic and symbol-laden style of early Christian mysticism, Boehme's works have had lasting influence on theosophy, Rosicrucianism, and German idealist philosophy. This edition serves both as a guide to his teachings and a devotional call to spiritual awakening. For seekers of mystical Christianity and readers of esoteric thought, Boehme remains a fountain of metaphysical depth.
