Tx:19.106  same gift. And giving it, receive it of Him in return for what you  gave. He leadeth you and me together that we might meet here in this
Tx:20.11  the undoing of illusion that God Himself could give. For what God  gave the Holy Spirit, you have received. The Son of God looks unto

Tx:20.24  as if it were the truth? The world you look on is the answer that it  gave you, and you have given it power to adjust the world to make

Tx:20.70 The Holy Spirit guarantees that what God willed and  gave you shall be yours. This is your purpose now, and the vision
Tx:20.74  you accept this simple fact and take unto yourself the power you  gave them, you are released from them. One thing is sure—
Tx:20.77  Think but an instant just on this—you can behold the holiness God  gave His Son. And never need you think that there is something else
Tx:21.1 Projection makes perception. The world you see is what you  gave it, nothing more than that. But though it is no more than that,

Tx:22.26  What God has given to your holy relationship is there. For what He  gave the Holy Spirit to give to you, He gave. Would you not look
Tx:22.26  you not exchange in gratitude the function of an executioner you  gave him for the one he has in truth? Receive of him what God has
Tx:22.36  sin? Beyond his errors is his holiness and your salvation. You  gave him not his holiness but tried to see your sins in him to save
Tx:23.42  you attack him. You give him nothing and receive of him but what you  gave.
Tx:23.49 God does not share His function with a body. He  gave the function to create unto His Son because it is His own. It is
Tx:23.50  is like the love of God. It cannot yet assume the holy function God  gave His Son, for your forgiveness of one another is not complete as
Tx:24.5  with the reality of God's creation and with the grandeur which He  gave His Son. What else could justify attack? For who could hate
Tx:24.8  not cut off from one another. What you keep is lost to you. God  gave you both Himself, and to remember this is now the only purpose
Tx:24.10  goals. And would you now defeat the goal of holiness that Heaven  gave it? What perspective can the special have that does not change
Tx:24.22 Give him but what he has, remembering God  gave Himself to both of you in equal love that both might share the
Tx:24.22  has been given him makes you complete, as it does him. God's love  gave you to him and him to you because He gave Himself. What is the
Tx:24.22  as it does him. God's love gave you to him and him to you because He  gave Himself. What is the same as God is one with Him. And only
Tx:24.25 The key you threw away God  gave your brother, whose holy hands would offer it to you when you
Tx:24.26  For it is sure he would receive it wholly the instant that he  gave it so. And thus his secret guilt would disappear, forgiven by
Tx:24.32  but only in the dream. Open your eyes a little; see the savior God  gave to you that you might look on him and give him back his
Tx:24.59 Specialness is the function which you  gave yourself. It stands for you alone, as self-created,
Tx:24.63  the powerful conviction this is you belong to him. Nothing you  gave to specialness but is his due. And nothing due him is not due to
Tx:24.66  itself. Nor will that light go out when it is gone. Its holy purpose  gave it immortality, setting another light in Heaven, where your
Tx:24.71  Such is the travesty on God's creation. For as His Son's creation  gave Him joy and witness to His love and shared His purpose, so does
Tx:25.12  ever be. The only value that the past can hold is that you learn it  gave you no rewards that you would want to keep. For only thus will
Tx:25.19  in him. He is the frame in which your holiness is set, and what God  gave him must be given you. However much he overlooks the masterpiece
Tx:25.22  and not divided in His Will. And you must have one purpose, since He  gave the same to both of you. His Will is brought together as you
Tx:25.28  before are really calls to peace. He will perceive that where he  gave attack is but another altar where he can with equal ease and far
Tx:25.40  him of all the joy he would have found if he fulfilled the role God  gave to him. But think not Heaven is lost to him alone. Nor can it be
Tx:25.41  will be your joy, when he is free to offer you the gift of sight God  gave to him for you! He has no need but this—that you allow him
Tx:25.41  need but this—that you allow him freedom to complete the task God  gave to him. Remembering but this—that what he does you do along
Tx:25.45  by you. Nor does He will that he remain without the function that He  gave to him. Let him no more be lonely, for the lonely ones are those
Tx:25.76  both, since they are equal in the Holy Spirit's sight. Their Father  gave the same inheritance to both. Who would have more or less is not
Tx:26.17  not your Father's Will that you should offer or receive less than He  gave when He created you in perfect love.
Tx:26.32 God  gave His Teacher to replace the one you made, not to conflict with

Tx:26.51  is true in any way, and all must yield with equal ease to what God  gave as answer to them all. God's Will is One. And any wish that
Tx:26.62  purpose, they derive whatever meaning that they seem to have. God  gave to all illusions that were made another purpose that would
Tx:26.62  whatever form they took. In every miracle all healing lies, for God  gave answer to them all as one. And what is one to Him must be the
Tx:26.65  It is not arrogant to be as He created you or to make use of what He  gave to answer all His Son's mistakes and set him free. But it is

Tx:27.4  guilt—the witness which you send lest he forget the injuries he  gave from which you swear he never will escape. This sick and sorry
Tx:27.12  purpose, can be given it. You do not know its purpose. You but  gave illusions of a purpose to a thing you made to hide your
Tx:27.12  without a purpose cannot hide the function that the Holy Spirit  gave. Let, then, its purpose and your function both be reconciled at
Tx:27.36  anything at all, for conflict has no limited effects. Yet if God  gave an answer, there must be a way in which your problems are
Tx:27.42  unheard, and thus the question is preserved intact because it  gave the answer to itself. The holy instant is the interval in which
Tx:27.48  eyes no longer will accuse, but shine in thanks to you who blessing  gave. The holy instant's radiance will light your eyes and give them

Tx:17.35  you see no conflict. Yet the frame is only the wrapping for the  gift of conflict. The frame is not the gift. Be not deceived by the
Tx:17.35  only the wrapping for the gift of conflict. The frame is not the  gift. Be not deceived by the most superficial aspects of this thought
Tx:17.35  the whole, complete in every aspect. Death lies in this glittering  gift. Let not your gaze dwell on the hypnotic gleaming of the frame.
Tx:17.36  but you do need defense against your own acceptance of the  gift of death. When you who are truth accept an idea so dangerous
Tx:17.37  It is a picture, too, set in a frame. Yet if you accept this  gift, you will not see the frame at all because the gift can only be
Tx:17.37  accept this gift, you will not see the frame at all because the  gift can only be accepted through your willingness to focus all

Tx:17.76  want to make a holy instant of every situation? For such is the  gift of faith, freely given wherever faithlessness is laid aside
Tx:18.10  brothers. Let us join in Him in peace and gratitude and accept His  gift as our most holy and perfect reality, which we share in Him.
Tx:18.21  you. And think not that He has forgotten you to whom He gave the  gift. He uses everyone who calls on Him as means for the salvation of
Tx:18.27  must disappear before you now. Be tempted not to snatch away the  gift of faith you offered to each other. You will succeed only in
Tx:18.27  to each other. You will succeed only in frightening yourselves. The  gift is given forever, for God Himself received it. You cannot take
Tx:19.10  for yourself and would therefore share it. By faith you offer the  gift of freedom from the past, which you received. You do not use
Tx:19.12 Faith is the  gift of God, through Him Whom God has given you. Faithlessness looks
Tx:19.12  perception and is the sign you share it with Him. Faith is a  gift you offer to the Son of God through Him, and wholly acceptable
Tx:19.38  with Him? For it is He Who offered your relationship the  gift of holiness, without which it would have been forever impossible
Tx:19.102  Spirit is in him. Would you hold his sins against him or accept his  gift to you? Is this giver of salvation your friend or enemy? Choose
Tx:19.105  him. And offer thanks to God that he is holy and has been given the  gift of holiness for you. Join him in gladness and remove all trace
Tx:19.106  and hope and mercy are yours to give. Into the hands that give the  gift is given. Look on your brother, and see in him the gift of God
Tx:19.106  give the gift is given. Look on your brother, and see in him the  gift of God you would receive. It is almost Easter, the time of
Tx:19.106  rise as one in resurrection and not separate in death. Behold the  gift of freedom that I gave the Holy Spirit for both of you. And be
Tx:19.106  And be you free together, as you offer to the Holy Spirit this same  gift. And giving it, receive it of Him in return for what you gave.
Tx:19.107 Free your brother here, as I freed you. Give him the self-same  gift, nor look upon him with condemnation of any kind. See him as
Tx:19.108  seek, the reason for the journey from its beginning. Heaven is the  gift you owe each other, the debt of gratitude you offer to the Son
Tx:19.109 Think carefully how you would look upon the giver of this  gift, for as you look on him, so will the gift itself appear to be.
Tx:19.109  upon the giver of this gift, for as you look on him, so will the  gift itself appear to be. As he is seen as either the giver of guilt
Tx:20.2  purity of the Son of God and not his sins. Offer each other the  gift of lilies, not the crown of thorns; the gift of love and not the
Tx:20.2  Offer each other the gift of lilies, not the crown of thorns; the  gift of love and not the “gift” of fear. You stand beside each other,
Tx:20.2  offering the lilies to replace them. This Easter, I would have the  gift of your forgiveness offered by you to me and returned by me to
Tx:20.3  his redemption is so near. But let the whiteness of your shining  gift of lilies speed him on his way to resurrection.
Tx:20.4  snow white petals of the lilies you have received and given as your  gift, you will behold each other's face and recognize it. I was a
Tx:20.4  a stranger and you took me in, not knowing who I was. Yet for your  gift of lilies you will know. In your forgiveness of this stranger,
Tx:20.5  own interpretation of its value by his acceptance. Yet still the  gift proclaims his worthlessness to you, as his acceptance and
Tx:20.6  only the mind decides on what it would receive and give. And every  gift it offers depends on what it wants. It will adorn its chosen
Tx:20.7 Each  gift is an evaluation of the receiver and the giver. No one but
Tx:20.7  value that you lay upon your brother and on yourself. Here is your  gift to both; your judgment on the Son of God for what he is.
Tx:20.7  of God for what he is. Forget not that it is your savior to whom the  gift is offered. Offer him thorns and you are crucified. Offer him
Tx:20.10  upon each other. You have forgiven me. And yet I cannot use your  gift of lilies while you see them not. Nor can you use what I have
Tx:20.10  have given unless you share it. The Holy Spirit's vision is no idle  gift, no plaything to be tossed about a while and laid aside. Listen
Tx:20.14  from the cold chill of fear and withering blight of sin alike. Your  gift has saved him from the thorns and nails, and his strong arm is
Tx:20.24  he held out to you? Did you recognize each other as the eternal  gift of God to you? Did you see the holiness that shone in both of
Tx:20.26  would I unite with you, my friends, my brothers, and my Self. Your  gift unto each other has given me the certainty our union will be
Tx:20.38  of God together. You give to one another for everyone, and in your  gift is everyone made glad. Forget not Who has given you the gifts
Tx:20.40  by his Father, and you will recognize it as you receive his Father's  gift through him. What is in him will shine so brightly in your
Tx:20.43 Can you evaluate the giver of a  gift like this? Would you exchange this gift for any other? This gift
Tx:20.43  you evaluate the giver of a gift like this? Would you exchange this  gift for any other? This gift returns the laws of God to your
Tx:20.43  a gift like this? Would you exchange this gift for any other? This  gift returns the laws of God to your remembrance. And merely by
Tx:20.43  held you prisoner to pain and death must be forgotten. This is no  gift your brother's body offers you. The veil that hides the gift
Tx:20.43  is no gift your brother's body offers you. The veil that hides the  gift hides him as well. He is the gift, and yet he knows it not. No
Tx:20.43  you. The veil that hides the gift hides him as well. He is the  gift, and yet he knows it not. No more do you. And yet, have faith
Tx:20.43  it not. No more do you. And yet, have faith that He Who sees the  gift in both of you will offer and receive it for you both. And
Tx:20.77  brooks that never waste away, who need persuade you to accept the  gift of vision? And after vision, who is there who could refuse what
Tx:21.13  need to have your whole relationship transformed to joy; the little  gift you offer to the Holy Spirit for which He gives you everything;
Tx:21.17  decision to Him Who must decide for God for you. This is the little  gift you offer to the Holy Spirit, and even this He gave to you to
Tx:21.17  Spirit, and even this He gave to you to give yourself. For by this  gift is given you the power to release your savior that he may give
Tx:21.19  on which your “seeing” rests. This was not given you. This was your  gift to you and to your brother. Be willing, then, to have it taken
Tx:21.37  you seek to limit Him, you will hate Him because you are afraid. The  gift that He has given you is more than anything that stands this
Tx:21.66 That you are joined is your salvation—the  gift of Heaven, not the gift of fear. Does Heaven seem to be a burden
Tx:21.66 That you are joined is your salvation—the gift of Heaven, not the  gift of fear. Does Heaven seem to be a burden to you? In madness,
Tx:22.55  lays a part of Heaven in its place. How blessed are you who let this  gift be given! Each part of Heaven that you bring is given you. And
Tx:22.56  vision that he brings to others? And who would fail to recognize a  gift he let be laid in Heaven through himself? The gentle service
Tx:22.59  join to it all the power that God has given Him to make each little  gift of love a source of healing for everyone. Each little gift you
Tx:22.59  little gift of love a source of healing for everyone. Each little  gift you offer to the other lights up the world. Be not concerned
Tx:22.65  impossible? Do not attempt to keep a little of the ego with this  gift. For it was given you to be used and not obscured. What
Tx:23.30  makes your vengeance justified. Behold, unveiled, the ego's secret  gift, torn from your brother's body, hidden there in malice and in
Tx:23.30  body, hidden there in malice and in hatred for the one to whom the  gift belongs. He would deprive you of the secret ingredient which
Tx:23.42  speaks through you to your brother? The wrapping does not make the  gift you give. An empty box, however beautiful and gently given,
Tx:24.3 Love is extension. To withhold the smallest  gift is not to know love's purpose. Love offers everything forever.
Tx:24.19  Not one attack you thought you made on him has taken from him the  gift that God would have him give to you. His need to give it is as
Tx:24.23 Specialness is the seal of treachery upon the  gift of love. Whatever serves its purpose must be given to kill. No
Tx:24.23  gift of love. Whatever serves its purpose must be given to kill. No  gift that bears its seal but offers treachery to giver and
Tx:24.37  it. Yet what comfort has ever been in them that you would keep the  gift your Father asks from Him and give it there instead? Given to
Tx:24.46  may save all living things from death, receiving from each one the  gift of life that your forgiveness offers to your Self. The sight of
Tx:24.66  setting another light in Heaven, where your creations recognize a  gift from you, a sign that you have not forgotten them.
Tx:25.20  joins in His praise, to share His joy. This brother is His perfect  gift to you. And He is glad and thankful when you thank His perfect
Tx:25.21  For what you give is His, and giving it you learn to understand His  gift to you. And give the Holy Spirit what He offers unto the Father
Tx:25.41  it! And how great will be your joy, when he is free to offer you the  gift of sight God gave to him for you! He has no need but this—that
Tx:25.44  to see calls down the grace of God upon your eyes and brings the  gift of light that makes sight possible.
Tx:25.47  faithfulness to one perceived as other than himself, he learns the  gift was given to himself, and so they must be one. Forgiveness is
Tx:25.79 To give reluctantly is not to gain the  gift because you are reluctant to accept it. It is saved for you
Tx:25.79  they be received. Nor is the treasure less as it is given out. Each  gift [received] but adds to the supply. For God is fair. He does
Tx:25.79  not fight against His Son's reluctance to perceive salvation as a  gift from Him. Yet would His justice not be satisfied until it is
Tx:25.83  to the wholly innocent? A miracle is justice. It is not a special  gift to some to be withheld from others as less worthy, more
Tx:25.84  unfair than he has sought to be. If miracles, the Holy Spirit's  gift, were given specially to an elect and special group and kept
Tx:25.84  He bears no witness to. And everyone is equally entitled to His  gift of healing and deliverance and peace. To give a problem to the
Tx:26.9  opened that he may come forth to shine on you and give you back the  gift of freedom by receiving it of you. What is the Holy Spirit's
Tx:26.28  gate of Heaven. Here the Son of God Himself comes to receive each  gift that brings him nearer to his home. Not one is lost, and none is
Tx:26.65  and choose a little senseless wish instead of what He wills. The  gift of God to you is limitless. There is no circumstance it cannot
Tx:26.67  been true be recognized by those who know it not. And by this little  gift of truth but let to be itself—the Son of God allowed to be
Tx:26.69  interval you think lies in between the giving and receiving of the  gift seems to be one in which you sacrifice and suffer loss. You see
Tx:26.81 Heaven is grateful for this  gift of what has been withheld so long. For They have come to gather
Tx:27.19 How just are miracles! For they bestow an equal  gift of full deliverance from guilt upon your brother and yourself.
Tx:27.53  parts. God thanks you for your healing, for He knows it is a  gift of love unto His Son, and therefore is it given unto Him.
Tx:28.16  Thus, the Son gives fatherhood to his Creator and receives the  gift that he has given Him. It is because he is God's Son that he
Tx:29.23  you forgive is given power to forgive you your illusions. By your  gift of freedom is it given unto you. Make way for love, which you
Tx:29.34 There is no  gift the Father asks of you but that you see in all creation but the
Tx:29.34  of you but that you see in all creation but the shining glory of His  gift to you. Behold His Son, His perfect gift in whom his Father
Tx:29.34  the shining glory of His gift to you. Behold His Son, His perfect  gift in whom his Father shines forever and to whom is all creation
Tx:29.40  your mind and see another purpose there. Change is the greatest  gift God gave to all that you would make eternal, to ensure that only
Tx:29.56  power that it may be feared. Its life and power are its believer's  gift, and this is what the miracle restores to what has life and
Tx:29.56  what the miracle restores to what has life and power worthy of the  gift of Heaven and eternal peace. The miracle does not restore the
Tx:29.59  them and still attempts to seek for one that yet might offer him a  gift reality does not contain. Each worshiper of idols harbors hope
Tx:30.39  idol. It is not your will to have one. It will not bestow on you the  gift you seek. When you decide upon the form of what you want, you
Tx:30.72  is quite real and fully justified. While you regard it as a  gift unwarranted, it must uphold the guilt you would “forgive.”
Tx:31.71  concept of yourself because it was not made for you alone. Born as a  gift for someone not perceived to be yourself, it has been given
Tx:31.72  glad contrast offered you. Hold out your hand that you may have the  gift of kind forgiveness which you offer one whose need for it is
Tx:31.93 Deny me not the little  gift I ask when in exchange I lay before your feet the peace of God
Tx:31.93  everyone you see, for otherwise you will behold it not. To give this  gift is how to make it yours. And God ordained in loving kindness
Tx:31.94  and find so many chances to perceive another situation where God's  gift can once again be recognized as ours! And thus will all the
Tx:31.95  are sure of what they are and will forever be. They will accept the  gift I offer them because You gave it me on their behalf. And as I
W1:42.1  is His strength, not your own, that gives you power. And it is His  gift to you, rather than your own, which offers vision to you.
W1:58.5  I am unafraid, everyone must share in my understanding, which is the  gift of God to me and to the world.
W1:59.3 [42] God is my strength. Vision is His  gift. Let me not look to my own eyes to see today. Let me be willing
W1:59.3  seeing for the vision that is given by God. Christ's vision is His  gift, and He has given it to me. Let me call upon this gift today, so
W1:59.3  vision is His gift, and He has given it to me. Let me call upon this  gift today, so that this day may help me to understand eternity.
W1:62.2  yourself and the world are one. That is why all forgiveness is a  gift to yourself. Your goal is to find out who you are, having denied
W1:66.10  Which is true? Unless God gave your function to you, it must be the  gift of the ego. Does the ego really have gifts to give, being itself
W1:75.9  to vision. Understand that the Holy Spirit never fails to give the  gift of sight to the forgiving. Believe He will not fail you now. You
W1:92.10  brought unto your Self. Its strength will be the light in which the  gift of sight is given you. Leave, then, the dark a little while
W1:96.17  And all of it is given everyone who asks for it and will accept the  gift. Think, then, how much is given unto you to give this day, that
W1:97.6  He will not overlook one open mind that will accept the healing  gift they bring, and He will lay them everywhere He knows they will
W1:97.7 Thus will your  gift to Him be multiplied a thousand-fold and tens of thousands more.
W1:97.7  And when it is returned to you, it will surpass in might the little  gift you gave as much as does the radiance of the sun outshine the
W1:97.10 Expressed through you, the Holy Spirit will accept this  gift which you received of Him, increase its power, and give it back
W1:98.7 Each hour today give Him your tiny  gift of but five minutes. He will give the words you use in
W1:105.1  gifts the world can give, in which the giver loses as he gives the  gift; the taker is the richer by his loss. These are not gifts, but
W1:105.2 The truly given  gift entails no loss. It is impossible that one can gain because
W1:105.2  because another loses. This implies a limit and an insufficiency. No  gift is given thus. Such “gifts” are but a bid for a more valuable
W1:105.2  of debt to be repaid with more than was received by him who took the  gift.
W1:105.4  peace and joy, and you will learn a different way of looking at a  gift. God's gifts will never lessen when they are given away. They
W1:105.4  As Heaven's peace and joy intensify when you accept them as God's  gift to you, so does the joy of your Creator grow when you accept His
W1:105.6  as well. He cannot give through loss. No more can you. Receive His  gift of joy and peace today, and He will thank you for your gift to
W1:105.6  His gift of joy and peace today, and He will thank you for your  gift to Him.
W1:105.9  that would prevent success today. Now are you ready to accept the  gift of peace and joy which God has given you. Now are you ready to
W1:105.12  what He wills. And if a brother seems to tempt you to deny God's  gift to him, see it as but another chance to let yourself receive the
W1:107.6 When truth has come, it harbors in its wings the  gift of perfect constancy and love which does not falter in the face
W1:107.6  the face of pain but looks beyond it, steadily and sure. Here is the  gift of healing, for the truth needs no defense, and therefore no
W1:107.10  and bone but were created by the self-same thought which gave the  gift of life to Him as well. He is your brother and so like to you
W1:107.14  goes with you will carry to the world. They will increase with every  gift you give of five small minutes, and the errors that surround the
W1:108.12 Say each one slowly, and then pause a while, expecting to receive the  gift you gave, and it will come to you in the amount in which you
W1:111.3  light, and light and strength are one. I see through strength, the  gift of God to me. My weakness is the dark His gift dispels by giving
W1:111.3  through strength, the gift of God to me. My weakness is the dark His  gift dispels by giving me His strength to take its place.
W1:122.7  away in aimless wandering again. Accept salvation now. It is the  gift of God and not the world. The world can give no gifts of any
W1:124.3 What we receive is our eternal  gift to those who follow after and to those who went before or stayed
W1:124.11  the loveliness you look on is your own. Count this half hour as your  gift to God, in certainty that His return will be a sense of love you
W1:126.3  your charitable tolerance, which you bestow on one unworthy of the  gift because his sins have lowered him beneath a true equality with
W1:126.3  with you. He has no claim on your forgiveness. It holds out a  gift to him but hardly to yourself.
W1:126.4  basically unsound—a charitable whim, benevolent yet undeserved; a  gift bestowed at times, at other times withheld. Unmerited,
W1:126.4  are gracious unto him by giving him what he does not deserve, the  gift is no more yours than was his sin.
W1:126.7 Not having given Him the  gift He asks of you, you cannot recognize His gifts and think He has
W1:126.7  and think He has not given them to you. Yet would He ask you for a  gift unless it was for you? Could He be satisfied with empty gestures
W1:126.7  such petty gifts as worthy of His Son? Salvation is a better  gift than this, and true forgiveness, as the means by which it is
W1:127.7  placed upon its meager offerings and senseless gifts, and let the  gift of God replace them all.
W1:132.8 But healing is the  gift of those who are prepared to learn there is no world and can
W1:134.1  as something which entails an unfair sacrifice of righteous wrath, a  gift unjustified and undeserved, and a complete denial of the truth.
W1:134.9  forgiveness opens up to you. For if one brother has received this  gift of you, the door is open to yourself. There is a very simple way
W1:137.10  are never healed alone. And legions upon legions will receive the  gift which you receive when you are healed.
W1:137.13  of God. Is not a minute of the hour worth the giving to receive a  gift like this? Is not a little time a small expense to offer for the
W1:137.13  like this? Is not a little time a small expense to offer for the  gift of everything?
W1:137.14 Yet must we be prepared for such a  gift. And so we will begin the day with this and give ten minutes to
W1:R4.10  His Voice. Let each idea that you review that day give you the  gift which He has laid in it for you to have of Him. And we will use
W1:151.16 Such is your Eastertide. And so you lay the  gift of snow-white lilies on the world, replacing witnesses to sin
W1:152.2  inclusive to be true. Yet can truth have exceptions? If you have the  gift of everything, can loss be real? Can pain be part of peace, or
W1:152.9  and its eternal wholeness—all-encompassing, God's perfect  gift to His beloved Son.
W1:154.12  a thousand more but will not know that God Himself has left no  gift beyond what you already have nor has denied the tiniest of
W1:156.4  gratitude and gladness at your feet. The scent of flowers is their  gift to you. The waves bow down before you, and the trees extend
W1:158.5  It revealed itself to him at its appointed time. But vision is his  gift. This he can give directly, for Christ's knowledge is not lost
W1:158.11  revelation comes, for that is not of time. Yet time has still one  gift to give in which true knowledge is reflected in a way so
W1:159.6 This is the Holy Spirit's single  gift—the treasure house to which you can appeal with perfect
W1:159.7  one is stranger to him. No one asks for anything of him except the  gift of his acceptance of his welcoming.
W1:159.10  the store of miracles set out for you to give. Are you not worth the  gift when God appointed it be given you? Judge not God's Son, but
W1:159.10  Christ has dreamed the dream of a forgiven world. It is His  gift whereby a sweet transition can be made from death to life, from
W1:160.10  denies his brother is denying Him and thus refusing to accept the  gift of sight by which his Self is clearly recognized, his home
W1:164.7  judgment made beyond the world. Our practicing today becomes our  gift of thankfulness for our release from blindness and from misery.
W1:164.9  all suffering for joy this very day. Practice in earnest, and the  gift is yours. Would God deceive you? Can His promise fail? Can you
W1:165.4  yours today but for the asking. Nor need you perceive how great the  gift, how changed your mind will be before it comes to you. Ask to
W1:168.3 Today we ask of God the  gift He has most carefully preserved within our hearts, waiting to be
W1:168.3  preserved within our hearts, waiting to be acknowledged. This the  gift by which God leans to us and lifts us up, taking salvation's
W1:168.3  takes us in His arms and sweeps away the cobwebs of our sleep. His  gift of grace is more than just an answer. It restores all memories
W1:169.1  gently laid and willingly received, an altar clean and holy for the  gift.
W1:169.2  the world contains that those whose minds are lighted by the  gift of grace cannot believe the world of fear is real.
W1:169.11 And now we ask for grace, the final  gift salvation can bestow. Experience that grace provides will end in
W1:R5.11 Let this review be then your  gift to me. For this alone I need—that you will hear the words I
W1:185.12  created, given you by its Creator and established as His own eternal  gift. How can you fail when you but ask for what He wills for you?
W1:185.12  for you? And how could your request be limited to you alone? No  gift of God can be unshared. It is this attribute that sets the gifts
W1:185.13 No one can lose and everyone must gain whenever any  gift of God has been requested and received by anyone. God gives but
W1:186.13  no sorrow. He would make a restitution, though He is complete; a  gift to you, although He knows that you have everything already. He
W1:187.9  will take away all thought of form and leave instead the perfect  gift forever there, forever to increase, forever yours, forever given
W1:188.4  beyond all measure, given and returned. To you, the giver of the  gift, does God Himself give thanks. And in His blessing does the
W1:188.6  The light within you is sufficient. It alone has power to give the  gift of sight to you. Exclude the outer world and let your thoughts
W1:189.6  Its Love Which knows us perfect as Itself, Its sight which is the  gift Its Love bestows on us. We learn the way today. It is as sure as
W1:191.5  accept his true Identity is truly saved. And his salvation is the  gift he gives to everyone in gratitude to Him Who pointed out the way
W1:191.10  to redeem the lost, to save the helpless, and to give the world the  gift of his forgiveness. Who could see the world as dark and sinful
W1:192.6  gone, you will indeed perceive that for Christ's vision and the  gift of sight no sacrifice was asked, and only pain was lifted from a
W1:194.2  to freedom on it. You are saved, and your salvation thus becomes the  gift you give the world because you have received.
W1:197.5 God blesses every  gift you give to Him and every gift is given Him because it can be
W1:197.5 God blesses every gift you give to Him and every  gift is given Him because it can be given only to yourself, and what
W1:198.1  to have will be undone. Then are you free, for freedom is your  gift, and you can now receive the gift you gave.
W1:198.1  are you free, for freedom is your gift, and you can now receive the  gift you gave.
W1:198.5  intelligent to thank the One Who gives salvation, and accept His  gift with gratitude? And is it not a kindness to yourself to hear His
W1:198.12  of Christ appears unveiled at last in this one dream. This is the  gift the Holy Spirit holds for you from God your Father. Let today be
W1:198.15  brought us here will not forsake us now. For He would give to us the  gift that God has given us through Him today. Now is it time for your
W1:199.7 Be free today, and carry freedom as your  gift to those who still believe they are enslaved within a body. Be
W1:199.7  now, and give your mind to Him Who calls to you to make this  gift to Him. For He would give you perfect freedom, perfect joy, and
W1:R6.11  completely for the way each practice period can best become a loving  gift of freedom to the world.

W1:124.7  We have accepted and we now would give, for we would keep the  gifts our Father gave. Today we would experience ourselves at one
W1:126.7  having given Him the gift He asks of you, you cannot recognize His  gifts and think He has not given them to you. Yet would He ask you
W1:126.7  Could He be satisfied with empty gestures and evaluate such petty  gifts as worthy of His Son? Salvation is a better gift than this, and
W1:127.7  all value you have placed upon its meager offerings and senseless  gifts, and let the gift of God replace them all.
W1:135.6  no care, and no concern at all. Defend its life, or give it  gifts to make it beautiful or walls to make it safe, and you but say

W1:R4.11  you practice for the day unhurriedly, with time enough to see the  gifts which they contain for you, and let them be received where they

W1:154.11 We practice giving Him what He would have that we may recognize His  gifts to us. He needs our voice that He may speak through us. He
W1:154.11  will united with His own, that we may be the true receivers of the  gifts He gives.

W1:158.11  We practice seeing with the eyes of Christ today. And by the holy  gifts we give, Christ's vision looks upon ourselves as well.

W1:166.3 The  gifts of God are not acceptable to anyone who holds such strange
W1:166.3  holds such strange beliefs. He must believe that, to accept God's  gifts, however evident they may become, however urgently he may be

W1:166.11  with this one merciful reply: “It is not so.” He points to all the  gifts you have each time the thought of poverty oppresses you and
W1:166.12  had forgotten. For His touch on you has made you like Himself. The  gifts you have are not for you alone. What He has come to offer you,
W1:166.12  to make in which to hide from God. He has reminded you of all the  gifts that God has given you. He speaks as well of what becomes your
W1:166.12  He speaks as well of what becomes your will when you accept these  gifts and recognize they are your own.
W1:166.13 The  gifts are yours, entrusted to your care to give to all who chose the

W1:166.14  touch; your change of mind becomes the proof that who accepts God's  gifts can never suffer anything. You are entrusted with the world's
W1:166.15  of what Christ's touch can offer everyone. God has entrusted all His  gifts to you. Be witness in your happiness to how transformed the
W1:166.15  to how transformed the mind becomes which chooses to accept His  gifts and feel the touch of Christ. Such is your mission now. For God
W1:166.15  Christ. Such is your mission now. For God entrusts the giving of His  gifts to all who have received them. He has shared His joy with you.

W1:178.3 [166] I am entrusted with the  gifts of God. God is but Love, and therefore so am I.
W1:183.10 Today you can achieve a state in which you will experience the  gifts of grace. You can escape all bondage of the world and give the
W1:185.12  No gift of God can be unshared. It is this attribute that sets the  gifts of God apart from every dream that ever seemed to take the
W1:188.3  all tired hearts and lights all vision as it passes by. All of its  gifts are given everyone, and everyone unites in giving thanks to you
W1:188.4  restores the memory to you as well. From you salvation radiates with  gifts beyond all measure, given and returned. To you, the giver of
W1:188.4  in His blessing does the light in you shine brighter, adding to the  gifts you have to offer to the world.
W1:189.10  it is unto You we look for them. Our hands are open to receive Your  gifts. We have no thoughts we think apart from You and cherish no
W1:193.12  who he is. And God would have him not forget His Love and all the  gifts His Love brings with it. Would you now renounce your own
W1:195.6  otherwise we offer thanks for nothing and we fail to recognize the  gifts of God to us.
W1:197.1  again unless you find external gratitude and lavish thanks. Your  gifts must be received with honor, lest they be withdrawn. And so you
W1:197.1  received with honor, lest they be withdrawn. And so you think God's  gifts are loans at best; at worst, deceptions which would cheat you
W1:197.3  for its release can only mirror yours. Your gratitude is all your  gifts require that they be a lasting offering of a thankful heart
W1:197.3  from hell forever. Is it this you would undo by taking back your  gifts because they were not honored? It is you who honor them and
W1:197.3  and give them fitting thanks, for it is you who have received the  gifts.
W1:197.4 It does not matter if another thinks your  gifts unworthy. In his mind there is a part that joins with yours in
W1:197.4  that joins with yours in thanking you. It does not matter if your  gifts seem lost and ineffectual. They are received where they are
W1:197.5  what belongs to God must be His own. Yet you will never realize His  gifts are sure, eternal, changeless, limitless, forever giving out,
W1:197.6 Withdraw the  gifts you give, and you will think that what is given you has been
W1:197.6  sins you think you see outside yourself, and you can never think the  gifts of God are lent but for a little while before He snatches them
W1:198.14  in his holiness. He needs no thoughts of mercy. Who could give him  gifts when everything is his? And who could dream of offering
W1:199.5  in power to help the world, and none which will not gain in added  gifts to you as well. We sound the call of freedom round the world
W1:199.5  with this idea. And would you be exempt from the acceptance of the  gifts you give?
W1:206.1  Salvation of the world depends on me. I am entrusted with the  gifts of God because I am His Son. And I would give His gifts where

W2:233.2  no reserve at all. This is His day. And so it is a day of countless  gifts and mercies unto us.

W2:284.2  me not fail to trust in You today, accepting but the joyous as Your  gifts, accepting but the joyous as the truth.

W2:306.2  return to You, remembering we never went away, remembering Your holy  gifts to us. In gratitude and thankfulness, we come, with empty hands
W2:315.1  treasures come to me with every passing moment. I am blessed with  gifts throughout the day, in value far beyond all things of which I

W2:316.1  are and enter in where I am truly welcome and at home among the  gifts that God has given me.
W2:316.2 Father, I would accept Your  gifts today. I do not recognize them. Yet I trust that You Who gave
W2:322.1 I sacrifice illusions, nothing more. And as illusions go, I find the  gifts illusions tried to hide, awaiting me in shining welcome and in
W2:330.1  is already theirs? The mind that is made willing to accept God's  gifts has been restored to Spirit and extends its freedom and its
W2:334.1  that rest on false perception. Let me not accept such meager  gifts again today. God's Voice is offering the peace of God to all
W2:344.1  what can an illusion offer me? Yet he whom I forgive will give me  gifts beyond the worth of anything on earth. Let my forgiven brothers
W2:345.1 Father, a miracle reflects Your  gifts to me, Your Son. And every one I give returns to me, reminding
W2:345.1  there are no needs. But here on earth, the miracle is closer to Your  gifts than any other gift which I can give. Then let me give this
W2:349.1  me because I have chosen it as the gift I want to give. Father, Your  gifts are mine. Each one that I accept gives me a miracle to give.
W2:361.1  And if I need but stillness and a tranquil, open mind, these are the  gifts I will receive of Him. He is in charge by my request. And He
M:4.1  that will establish them as what they are. God gives special  gifts to His teachers because they have a special role in His plan
M:4.1 —set in time as a means of leading out of time. These special  gifts, born in the holy relationship toward which the
M:4.4  would place his faith in the shabby offerings of the ego when the  gifts of God are laid before him? What is it that induces them to
M:4.16  before them, making sure no harm can come to them. They hold His  gifts and follow in His way because God's Voice directs them in all
M:6.2  has been given, it will be received. And what is time before the  gifts of God? We have referred many times in the text to the
M:6.2  of treasures laid up equally for the giver and the receiver of God's  gifts. Not one is lost, for they can but increase. No teacher of God
M:6.3  not the function of God's teachers to evaluate the outcome of their  gifts. It is merely their function to give them. Once they have done
M:6.4  concern, then, can a teacher of God have about what becomes of his  gifts? Given by God to God, who in this holy exchange can receive
M:7.3  himself. The teacher of God is a miracle worker because he gives the  gifts he has received. Yet he must first accept them. He need do no
M:7.3  and Who received it. Thus is his doubt corrected. He thought the  gifts of God could be withdrawn. That was a mistake, but hardly one
M:15.4  can the world hold out to you, regardless of your judgments on its  gifts, that you would rather have? You will be judged, and judged in
M:23.1 God's  gifts can rarely be received directly. Even the most advanced of
M:23.4  called to mind. Remembering His name is to give thanks for all the  gifts that God has given you. And gratitude to God becomes the way in
M:25.5  powers. As investment has been withdrawn from the world's material  gifts, the ego has been seriously threatened. It may still be strong
M:25.6  freedom for greater imprisonment. The Holy Spirit needs these  gifts, and those who offer them to Him and Him alone go with Christ's
M:26.2  will come when this is understood. And meanwhile they give all their  gifts to the teachers of God who look to them for help, asking all
M:28.1  of the Holy Spirit's final dream. It is the recognition of the  gifts of God. It is the dream in which the body functions perfectly,

Tx:8.56  you have put yours. If the body becomes for you a means which you  give to the Holy Spirit to use on behalf of union of the Sonship, you

Tx:8.83 How you wake is the sign of how you have used sleep. To whom did you  give it? Under which teacher did you place it? Whenever you wake
Tx:8.88  what I ask, and everything which argues for your doing it. I  give you no limits because God lays none upon you. When you limit
Tx:8.117  set the value on what you receive and have priced it by what you  give. To believe that it is possible to get much for little is to
Tx:8.117  only by this willingness can you recognize what you have. What you  give is therefore the value you put on what you have, being the exact
Tx:9.5  errors and accept them, you are accepting yours. If you want to  give yours over to the Holy Spirit, you must do this with his. Unless
Tx:9.8  of an ability which you do not need, but which you have made.  Give it to Him! You do not know how to use it. He will teach you how
Tx:9.47  do not want anything else. Return your part of Him, and He will  give you all of Himself in exchange for your return of what belongs
Tx:9.69 Yet to  give up the dissociation of reality brings more than merely lack of
Tx:9.69  of God and of yourself for you, waiting for your acceptance.  Give up gladly everything that would stand in the way of your
Tx:9.70  for you. But signify your will to remember Him and behold! He will  give you everything but for the asking.

Tx:9.84  He will be heard when you place no other gods before Him. You can  give up the god of sickness for your brothers; in fact, you would
Tx:9.84  for your brothers; in fact, you would have to do so if you  give him up for yourself. For if you see him anywhere, you have
Tx:9.88  but they are not there to take it from you, and you are not able to  give it to them.
Tx:9.89 You are not free to  give up freedom, but only to deny it. You cannot do what God did
Tx:9.94  yourself, have done this to you. You will receive the message you  give, because it is the message you want. You may believe that you
Tx:9.94  You may believe that you judge your brothers by the messages they  give you, but you have judged them by the message you give to
Tx:9.94  they give you, but you have judged them by the message you  give to them. Do not attribute your denial of joy to them, or you
Tx:10.10  Love does not limit, and what it creates is not limited. To  give without limit is God's Will for you because only this can bring
Tx:10.11  God is your heritage because His one gift is Himself. How can you  give except like Him if you would know His gift to you? Give, then,
Tx:10.11  can you give except like Him if you would know His gift to you?  Give, then, without limit and without end to learn how much He has
Tx:10.11  you. Your ability to accept Him depends on your willingness to  give as He gives. Your fatherhood and your Father are one. God
Tx:10.13  God then may seem to demand of you what you do not want to  give and thus deprive you of what you want. Would God, who wants
Tx:10.29  Comforter can comfort you. In the quiet of His temple, He waits to  give you the peace that is yours. Give His peace that you may enter
Tx:10.67  what I can do for you. For it is done already, and unless you  give all that you have received, you will not know that your Redeemer
Tx:10.81  and you do not perceive it as sharing. The Holy Spirit will  give you only what is yours and will take nothing in return. For
Tx:10.83  you have asked it of me. No one of us but has the answer in him, to  give to anyone who asks it of him. Ask anything of God's Son and His
Tx:10.85  become willing to accept this Help by asking for it, you will  give it because you want it. Nothing will be beyond your healing
Tx:11.1  you have made his error real to you. To interpret error is to  give it power, and having done this, you will overlook truth.
Tx:11.3  for help? No response can be appropriate except the willingness to  give it to him, for this and only this is what he is asking for.
Tx:11.15  regardless of the density of the fog that obscures it. If you  give no power to the fog to obscure the light, it has none, for it
Tx:11.16  for health is to recognize in hatred the call for love. And to  give a brother what he really wants is to offer it unto yourself,
Tx:11.21  You will not fail in your mission because I failed not in mine.  Give me but a little trust in the name of the complete trust I have
Tx:11.24 I once asked if you were willing to sell all you have and  give to the poor and follow me. This is what I meant: If you had no
Tx:11.58  He knows of the Father's love for Him. And knowing this, He would  give you what is yours. In perfect peace He waits for you at His
Tx:11.70  for its reality is only what you gave it. You cannot really  give anything but love to anyone or anything, nor can you really
Tx:11.70  is because you have looked within and thought you saw the power to  give something else within yourself. It was only this decision that
Tx:11.83  with Him could never be content without reality. What God did not  give you has no power over you, and the attraction of love for love
Tx:12.20  You were at peace until you asked for special favor. And God did not  give it, for the request was alien to Him, and you could not ask this
Tx:12.20  an unloving father, demanding of Him what only such a father could  give. And the peace of God's Son was shattered, for he no longer
Tx:12.22  insanity. [And this He did. No one who hears His answer but will  give up insanity.] For His answer is the reference point beyond
Tx:12.55 There is a light which this world cannot  give. Yet you can give it, as it was given you. And as you give it,
Tx:12.55 There is a light which this world cannot give. Yet you can  give it, as it was given you. And as you give it, it shines forth to

Tx:12.62  world you made but do not want. The only effort you need make to  give this world away in glad exchange for what you did not make is
Tx:12.64  of Him the joyful journey home. You wait but for yourself. To  give this sad world over and exchange your errors for the peace of
Tx:12.70 Only the Holy Spirit knows what you need. For He will  give you all things that do not block the way to light. And what else
Tx:12.76  here, but in eternity. You travel but in dreams while safe at home.  Give thanks to every part of you that you have taught how to

Tx:13.5  world to make Christ's vision possible even here. Help Him to  give His gift of light to all who think they wander in the darkness,
Tx:13.11  ego's laws are strict, and breaches are severely punished. Therefore  give no obedience to its laws, for they are laws of punishment. And
Tx:13.13 The world can  give you only what you gave it, for being nothing but your own
Tx:13.24  A minute, even less, will be enough to free you from the past and  give your mind in peace over to the Atonement. When everyone is
Tx:13.26  what He has saved you from. What He has saved you from is gone.  Give no reality to guilt, and see no reason for it. The Holy Spirit
Tx:13.33  belief I offer unto it. My faith in you is strong as all the love I  give my Father. My trust in you is without limit and without the fear
Tx:13.38 Nothing in this world can  give this peace, for nothing in this world is wholly shared. Perfect
Tx:13.48  that have been thrown away. You can learn to bless and cannot  give what you have not. If, then, you offer blessing, it must
Tx:13.48  you must also have accepted it as yours, for how else could you  give it away?
Tx:13.50 If you decide to have and  give and be nothing except a dream, you must direct your thoughts
Tx:13.50  you must direct your thoughts unto oblivion. And if you have and  give and are everything, and all this has been denied, your
Tx:13.61 If you would be a happy learner, you must  give everything that you have learned over to the Holy Spirit to be
Tx:13.88  be undone for you and stand in grace before your Father, He will  give Himself to you as He has always done. Giving Himself is all He
Tx:13.91  not the Son of God and trying to teach him guilt instead of love.  Give up this frantic and insane attempt, which cheats you of the joy
Tx:14.2  apart from Him, that resembles it ever so faintly. You cannot even  give a blessing in perfect gentleness. Would you know of One Who
Tx:14.14  your altar, for it was rebuilt through you. And everything you  give to God is yours. Thus He creates, and thus must you restore.
Tx:14.18 Would you continue to  give imagined power to these strange ideas of safety? They are
Tx:14.55  remember your Father, let the Holy Spirit order your thoughts and  give only the answer with which He answers you. Everyone seeks for
Tx:14.57  that this is true. Where there is love, your brother must  give it to you because of what it is. But where there is need for
Tx:14.57  of what it is. But where there is need for love, you must  give it because of what you are. Long ago we said this course will
Tx:15.12  so completely, ask yourself, “How long is an instant?” Could you not  give so short a time to the Holy Spirit for your salvation? He asks
Tx:15.12  need of more. It takes far longer to teach you how to be willing to  give Him this than for Him to use this tiny instant to offer you the
Tx:15.12  whole of Heaven. In exchange for this instant, He stands ready to  give you the remembrance of eternity.
Tx:15.13 You will never  give this holy instant to the Holy Spirit on behalf of your release
Tx:15.13  the Holy Spirit on behalf of your release while you are unwilling to  give it to your brothers on behalf of theirs. For the instant of
Tx:15.13  gives their blessed instant to you through your giving it. As you  give it, He offers it to you.
Tx:15.14 Be not unwilling to  give what you would receive of Him, for you join with Him in giving.
Tx:15.14  join with Him in giving. In the crystal cleanness of the release you  give is your instantaneous escape from guilt. You must be holy if
Tx:15.28  up by them into a sense of magnitude that can content them. Neither  give littleness, nor accept it. All honor is due the host of God.
Tx:15.29  whom God appointed for Himself. It is beyond all your littleness to  give the gift of God, but not beyond you. For God would give
Tx:15.29  to give the gift of God, but not beyond you. For God would  give Himself through you. He reaches from you to everyone and
Tx:15.30  of God, when will you learn that only holiness can content you and  give you peace?
Tx:15.32  and unable to accept anything for yourself. But you will gladly  give, having received. The host of God need not seek to find
Tx:15.36  Think not that you can find salvation in your own way and have it.  Give over every plan that you have made for your salvation in
Tx:15.38  will recognize in the holy instant in which you willingly and gladly  give over every plan but His. For there lies peace, perfectly clear
Tx:15.38  instant any time and anywhere you want it. In your practice, try to  give over every plan you have accepted for finding magnitude in
Tx:15.40  that it is a time in which your mind is open, both to receive and  give. It is the recognition that all minds are in communication. It
Tx:15.42  forever?” If the answer is no, then the Holy Spirit's readiness to  give it to you is not enough to make it yours, for you are not ready
Tx:15.47  lies. How can you decide that special aspects of the Sonship can  give you more than others? The past has taught you this. Yet the
Tx:15.54  one to you. The meaning of love is the meaning God gave to it.  Give to it any meaning apart from His, and it is impossible to
Tx:15.59  that, like your Father, you are an idea. And like Him, you can  give yourself completely, wholly without loss, and only with gain.
Tx:15.60  not loss, but completion. From this it follows you can only  give. And this is love, for this alone is natural under the laws of
Tx:15.62  not. And through me the Holy Spirit gave it unto you, as you will  give it. Let no need that you perceive obscure your need of this. For
Tx:15.63  idea of peace, for in ideas minds can communicate. If you would  give yourself as your Father gives His Self, you will learn to
Tx:15.81  completion and seek not to restore it to yourselves. Fear not to  give redemption over to your Redeemer's love. He will not fail you,
Tx:15.87  without limits is given you. But to see this, it is necessary to  give up every use the ego has for the body and to accept the fact
Tx:15.88  is the only purpose for which it was given you. Love would always  give increase. Limits are demanded by the ego, representing its
Tx:15.88  from it, and you have denied his gift to you. His body cannot  give it. And seek it not through yours. Yet your minds are
Tx:15.94 We who are one cannot  give separately. When you are willing to accept our relationship as
Tx:15.94  our brothers. The gift of union is the only gift that I was born to  give. Give it to me, that you may have it. The time of Christ is
Tx:15.94  The gift of union is the only gift that I was born to give.  Give it to me, that you may have it. The time of Christ is the time
Tx:15.97 As host to the ego, you believe that you can  give all your guilt away whatever you think and purchase peace.
Tx:15.102  alien to His Oneness can abide with Him there. Love must be total to  give Him welcome, for the Presence of Holiness creates the holiness
Tx:15.103 This Christmas,  give the Holy Spirit everything that would hurt you. Let yourself
Tx:15.108  of nothing? Such is the message of the time of Christ, which I  give you that you may give it and return it to the Father, Who gave
Tx:15.108  the message of the time of Christ, which I give you that you may  give it and return it to the Father, Who gave it to me. For in the
Tx:15.111 I  give you to the Holy Spirit as part of myself. I know that you will
Tx:16.8  He will not meet them secretly, for He would share everything you  give through Him. And that is why He gives it.
Tx:16.9 What you  give through Him is for the whole Sonship, not for part of it.
Tx:16.19  this and be glad. For love asks only that you be happy and will  give you everything that makes for happiness. You have never given
Tx:16.31  satisfy, but its reality, which awaits you on the other side, will  give you everything.

Tx:16.67  gladly, and learn how much awaits you for the simple willingness to  give up nothing because it is nothing.
Tx:16.69  you. He needs only your willingness to share His perspective to  give it to you completely. And your willingness need not be complete
Tx:16.71  at all. How can you change the past except in fantasy? And who can  give you what you think the past deprived you of? The past is
Tx:16.77  completes His giving. You will receive because it is His Will to  give. He gave the holy instant to be given you, and it is impossible
Tx:16.80  or small, possible or impossible. There is nothing that will not  give place to Him and to His majesty. To join in close relationship
Tx:16.80  is to accept relationships as real and through their reality to  give over all illusions for the reality of your relationship with
Tx:17.3  yourself, you take away from Him Who would release you. Unless you  give it back, it is inevitable that your perspective on reality be
Tx:17.5  real and keep them by justifying your belief in them. But to  give illusions to truth is to enable truth to teach that the
Tx:17.6 Be willing, then, to  give all you have held outside the truth to Him who knows the truth
Tx:17.13 How much do you want salvation? It will  give you the real world, trembling with readiness to be given you.
Tx:17.13  readiness to be given you. The eagerness of the Holy Spirit to  give you this is so intense He would not wait, although He waits in
Tx:17.23  therefore unholy by seeing it where it is not and as it is not.  Give the past to Him Who can change your mind about it for you. But
Tx:17.45  for it. In its unholy condition, your goal was all that seemed to  give it meaning. Now it seems to make no sense. Many relationships
Tx:17.54  concealed within it. The instant remains. But where are you? To  give thanks to each other is to appreciate the holy instant and thus
Tx:17.62  This seems to ask for faith beyond you and beyond what you can  give. Yet this is so only from the viewpoint of the ego, for the ego
Tx:17.72 Enter each situation with the faith that you  give to each other, or you are faithless to your own relationship.
Tx:17.77  hell. And it was nothing but the intolerable strain of refusing to  give faith to truth and see its evident reality.
Tx:17.79  changeless can you now withhold from it. Your release is certain.  Give as you have received. And demonstrate that you have risen far
Tx:18.9  relationship. Let Him bring it here, where you would have it be.  Give Him but a little faith in each other, to help Him show you that
Tx:18.13  you in your holy relationship. Accept it here, and you will  give as you have accepted. The peace of God is given you with the
Tx:18.26  of your eyelids, closed so long, has not yet been sufficient to  give you confidence in yourselves, so long despised. You go toward
Tx:18.29  of your relationship, is your need for salvation. Would I not  give you what you gave to me? For when you joined each other, you

Tx:18.32  is your realization that you need do so little that enables Him to  give so much.
Tx:18.38  Him Whose function is release. Do not assume His function for Him.  Give Him but what He asks, that you may learn how little is your part
Tx:18.39  need do. [You find it difficult to accept the idea that you need  give so little to receive so much.] And it is very hard for you to

Tx:18.50 What could God  give but knowledge of Himself? What else is there to give? The
Tx:18.50 What could God give but knowledge of Himself? What else is there to  give? The belief that you could give and get something else,
Tx:18.50  of Himself? What else is there to give? The belief that you could  give and get something else, something outside yourself, has cost
Tx:18.75  on their one Creator for everything and needing the whole to  give them any meaning, for by themselves they do mean nothing. Nor

Tx:18.82  barriers you hold against each other. And you will not be able to  give love welcome separately. You could no more know God alone than
Tx:18.83  has come to you and would welcome you. He has waited long to  give you this. Receive it now of Him, for He would have you know Him.
Tx:18.85 This is the little part of you, you think you stole from Heaven.  Give it back to Heaven. Heaven has not lost it, but you have lost
Tx:19.13 Your holy relationship, with its new purpose, offers you faith to  give unto each other. Your faithlessness had driven you apart, and so
Tx:19.17  guilty and will forever so remain unless a mind not part of it can  give it absolution. Sin calls for punishment as error for correction,
Tx:19.33  another will which could attack His Will and overcome it and  give His Son a will apart from His and stronger. And each part of

Tx:19.64  you have joined the limitless? The end of guilt is in your hands to  give. Would you stop now to look for guilt in each other?
Tx:19.68 Your little part is but to  give the Holy Spirit the whole idea of sacrifice. And to accept the

Tx:19.70  the seeds of faithlessness, but only if you ask of it what it cannot  give. Can your mistake be reasonable grounds for depression and
Tx:19.88  holy Presence of the One given to you to be the Source of judgment.  Give it to Him to judge for you, and say:
Tx:19.102  in him the power to forgive your sins, as you for him. Neither can  give it to himself alone. And yet your savior stands beside each one.
Tx:19.103  when only he can offer it to you? For his redemption, he will  give you yours as surely as God created every living thing and loves

Tx:21.52  reason understand what reason is or grasp the information it would  give? All sorts of questions may arise in it, but if the basic
Tx:21.59  the help you call for, you will not believe that it is yours to  give. And so you will not give it, thus maintaining the belief. For
Tx:21.59  you will not believe that it is yours to give. And so you will not  give it, thus maintaining the belief. For uncorrected error of any
Tx:21.67  what you must be. And being one with It, it must be given you to  give what It has given and gives still. Spend but an instant in the
Tx:21.67  Spend but an instant in the glad acceptance of what is given you to  give your brother, and learn with him what has been given both of
Tx:21.67  brother, and learn with him what has been given both of you. To  give is no more blessed than to receive. But neither is it less.
Tx:21.88  that he really wants. Yet what he is uncertain of, God cannot  give. For he does not desire it while he remains uncertain, and God's
Tx:22.18  time. Yet if the change be real and not imagined, illusions must  give way to truth and not to other dreams that are but equally
Tx:22.22  who are the same will not decide alone nor differently. Either you  give each other life or death; either you are each other's savior or
Tx:22.26  holy relationship is there. For what He gave the Holy Spirit to  give to you, He gave. Would you not look upon the savior that has
Tx:22.26  Receive of him what God has given him for you, not what you tried to  give yourself.
Tx:22.32  fragment of the whole, without the meaning that the whole would  give. And yet mistakes, regardless of their form, can be corrected.
Tx:22.37  holy relationship as what it is—a common state of mind, where both  give errors gladly to correction that both may happily be healed as
Tx:22.44  is the function of a holy relationship—to receive together and  give as you received. Standing before the veil, it still seems
Tx:22.56  let be laid in Heaven through himself? The gentle service that you  give the Holy Spirit is service to yourself. You who are now His
Tx:22.58  serve it willingly, for what the Holy Spirit does with the gifts you  give each other, to whom He offers them, and where and when is up to
Tx:22.59  function. Leave this to Him. Let your concern be only that you  give to Him that which can be extended. Save no dark secrets that
Tx:23.4  Think what a happy world you walk with truth beside you! Do not  give up this world of freedom for a little sigh of seeming sin nor
Tx:23.27  Yet all the other laws must lead to this. For enemies do not  give willingly to one another, nor would they seek to share the
Tx:23.30  belongs. He would deprive you of the secret ingredient which would  give meaning to your life. The substitute for love, born of your
Tx:23.33  from salvation. How lovely do the laws of fear make death appear!  Give thanks unto the hero on love's throne, who saved the Son of God
Tx:23.42  through you to your brother? The wrapping does not make the gift you  give. An empty box, however beautiful and gently given, still
Tx:23.42  Withhold forgiveness from your brother, and you attack him. You  give him nothing and receive of him but what you gave.
Tx:23.43  is to accept but part of what you want—to take a little and  give up the rest. Salvation gives up nothing. It is complete for
Tx:24.9  of any kind between you? Look fairly at whatever makes you  give each other only partial welcome or would let you think that you
Tx:24.17  what never was, nor hear what makes no sound. Is it a sacrifice to  give up nothing and to receive the love of God forever?
Tx:24.19  you made on him has taken from him the gift that God would have him  give to you. His need to give it is as great as yours to have it. Let
Tx:24.19  from him the gift that God would have him give to you. His need to  give it is as great as yours to have it. Let him forgive you all your
Tx:24.22  Give him but what he has, remembering God gave Himself to both of you
Tx:24.31  to mar your rest. Forgive the Holy One the specialness He could not  give and which you made instead.
Tx:24.32  see the savior God gave to you that you might look on him and  give him back his birthright. It is yours.
Tx:24.37  in them that you would keep the gift your Father asks from Him and  give it there instead? Given to Him, the universe is yours. Offered
Tx:24.38  would be its friend. Your brother's sins would justify itself and  give it meaning that the truth denies. All that is real proclaims his
Tx:24.41  belong together, and the whole contributes nothing to the parts to  give them meaning.
Tx:24.47  His Son could never will that you be brotherless. And would He  give a brother unto you except he be as perfect as yourself and just
Tx:24.58  must be that He has given you a part of Him to save from pain and  give you happiness. And never doubt but that your specialness will
Tx:24.65  a frame of holiness around him that the truth may shine on him and  give you safety from decay.
Tx:24.67  it what it is for you. It has no meaning of itself, yet you can  give reality to it according to the purpose which you serve. Here you
Tx:25.21  You need no forgiveness, for the wholly pure have never sinned.  Give then what He has given you that you may see His Son as one and
Tx:25.21  Nor believe that all His praise is given not to you. For what you  give is His, and giving it you learn to understand His gift to you.
Tx:25.21  is His, and giving it you learn to understand His gift to you. And  give the Holy Spirit what He offers unto the Father and the Son
Tx:25.22  to your brother. See not in him the sinfulness he sees, but  give him honor that you may esteem yourself and him. To each of you
Tx:25.40  have it. So must it remain useless to both. Together, it will  give to each an equal strength to save the other and save himself
Tx:25.42  or to hell as you perceive him. But forget not this—the role you  give to him is given you, and you will walk the way you pointed
Tx:25.62  but this—a mad belief that God's insanity would make you sane and  give you what you want. That either God or you must lose to madness
Tx:25.63 The Holy Spirit can use all that you  give to Him for your salvation. But He cannot use what you withhold,
Tx:25.63  you would not learn it is your will to be without it. You need not  give it to Him wholly willingly, for if you could, you'd have no need
Tx:25.66  your little payment to “atone” for all that you would keep and not  give up. So is the victim seen as partly you, with someone else by
Tx:25.70  innocent in truth. In justice, He is bound to set them free and  give them all the honor they deserve and have denied themselves
Tx:25.71  in justice and in love believe in your confusion you have much to  give? You are not asked to trust Him far. No further than what you
Tx:25.71  than what you see He offers you and what you recognize you could not  give yourself.
Tx:25.72  Because they are the same does mercy stand at God's right hand and  give the Son of God the power to forgive himself of sin.
Tx:25.75  a witness unto his sinlessness and not his sin. How little need you  give the Holy Spirit that simple justice may be given you!
Tx:25.76  that justice is the same for everyone? To take from one to  give another must be an injustice to them both, since they are equal
Tx:25.79 To  give reluctantly is not to gain the gift because you are reluctant to
Tx:25.79  given you. God's justice warrants gratitude, not fear. Nothing you  give is lost to you or anyone, but cherished and preserved [for you]
Tx:25.84  entitled to His gift of healing and deliverance and peace. To  give a problem to the Holy Spirit to solve for you means that you
Tx:26.9  ensure the door be opened that he may come forth to shine on you and  give you back the gift of freedom by receiving it of you. What is the
Tx:26.14 You who believe it safe to  give but some mistakes to be corrected while you keep the others to
Tx:26.15  Spirit be content until it is received by everyone. For what you  give to Him is everyone's, and by your giving it can He ensure that
Tx:26.24  are but one. And in the recognition this is so lies the ability to  give up all attempts to choose between them and to make them
Tx:26.24  has been withdrawn from what was never true, can it be hard to  give it up and choose what must be true?
Tx:26.41  This terrible illusion was denied in but the time it took for God to  give His answer to illusion for all time and every circumstance. And
Tx:26.44  ones which he prefers and find the safety that the truth alone can  give? Who can believe illusions are the same and still maintain that
Tx:26.54  your brother and yourself. They limit you to time and place and  give a little space to you, another little space to him. This
Tx:26.83  and the freezing cold. And shall the Lord of Heaven and His Son  give less in gratitude for so much more?
Tx:26.84  Where He dwells, His Son dwells with Him, never separate. And They  give thanks that They are welcome made at last. Where stood a cross
Tx:27.3  The picture of yourself you offer him you show yourself and  give it all your faith. The Holy Spirit offers you to give to him a
Tx:27.3  yourself and give it all your faith. The Holy Spirit offers you to  give to him a picture of yourself in which there is no pain and no
Tx:27.34  and vacant will not need defense of any kind. For you will  give it overwhelming preference. Nor delay an instant in deciding
Tx:27.35  of power which opposes nothing. Yet no other kind can be at all.  Give welcome to the Power beyond forgiveness and beyond the world of
Tx:27.48  And being blessed, you will bring blessing. Life is given you to  give the dying world. And suffering eyes no longer will accuse, but
Tx:27.48  blessing gave. The holy instant's radiance will light your eyes and  give them sight to see beyond all suffering and see Christ's face
Tx:27.75  of counting up the hurts he gave. Forgive him his illusions and  give thanks to him for all the helpfulness he gave. And do not brush
Tx:28.7  understand what they are for. Let not the cause that you would  give them now be what it was which made them what they were or seemed
Tx:28.17  cause is given its effects. For sickness is a meaningless attempt to  give effects to causelessness and make it be a cause.
Tx:28.21  cause, it has no purpose. You may cause a dream, but never will you  give it real effects. For that would change its cause, and it is this
Tx:28.31  it is a wish to keep apart and not to join. And thus it seems to  give a cause to sickness which is not its cause. The purpose of
Tx:28.37 Accepting the Atonement for yourself means not to  give support to someone's dream of sickness and of death. It means
Tx:28.48  as meaningless. The fear is gone from them because you did not  give them your support. Where fear has gone, there love must come
Tx:28.55  not like, although it cannot hear. It suffers not the punishment you  give because it has no feeling. It behaves in ways you want but never
Tx:29.10  loss, to find yourself in Heaven and in God? Until you realize you  give up nothing, until you understand there is no loss, you will
Tx:29.14 You do not see how much you now can  give because of everything you have received. Yet He Who entered in
Tx:29.20  but the one who gives salvation? Thus he learns it must be his to  give. Unless he gives, he will not know he has, for giving is the
Tx:29.20  strength could fail to understand this must be so. For who could  give unless he has, and who could lose by giving what must be
Tx:29.22  is. Before this light the body disappears, as heavy shadows must  give way to light. The darkness cannot choose that it remain. The
Tx:29.30  to be. He asks for help in every dream he has, and you have help to  give him if you see the function of the dream as He perceives its
Tx:29.35  would understand how great the cost of holding anything God did not  give in minds that can direct the hand to bless and lead God's Son
Tx:29.40  purpose for you and establish it as changeless and eternal. You can  give yourself a purpose that you do not have. But you can not
Tx:29.44  he bestows upon the body—that it seek for what he lacks and  give him what would make himself complete. And thus he wanders
Tx:29.46  that you can suffer lack, and lack is death. To sacrifice is to  give up and thus to be without and to have suffered loss. And by this
Tx:29.49  need but to decide you do not know the purpose of the world. You  give it goals it does not have, and thus do you decide what it is
Tx:29.57  change, the peace of God, forever given to all living things,  give way to chaos, and the Son of God, as perfect, sinless and as
Tx:29.59  Each worshiper of idols harbors hope his special deities will  give him more than other men possess. It must be more. It does not
Tx:29.60  why would you seek for idols which would make of Heaven less, to  give you more than God bestowed upon your brother and on you as one
Tx:29.60  you all there is. And to be sure you could not lose it, did He also  give the same to every living thing as well. And thus is every
Tx:29.64  has need of toys but children? They pretend they rule the world and  give their toys the power to move about and talk and think and feel
Tx:30.32  that you keep in mind, and you will have the day you want and  give it to the world by having it yourself. Your judgment has been
Tx:30.32  your decision for a happy day. And as you have received, so must you  give.
Tx:30.37 This world awaits the freedom you will  give when you have recognized that you are free. But you will not
Tx:30.41  power to complete the Son of God. What idol can be called upon to  give the Son of God what he already has?
Tx:30.42  as God created him. What idol can he need to be himself? For can he  give a part of him away? What is not whole cannot make whole. But
Tx:30.53  and understand that they are idols which but dance to vain desires.  Give them not your worship, for they are not there. Yet this is
Tx:30.56  he is. What could God's plan for his salvation be, except a means to  give him to Himself?
Tx:30.65  longer, for what lies ahead is all you ever wanted in your hearts.  Give up the world! But not to sacrifice. You never wanted it. What
Tx:30.72  forgiveness is attack. And this is all the world can ever  give. It pardons “sinners” sometimes but remains aware that they have
Tx:30.91  miracle touch not some dreams but keep their unreality obscure and  give to them reality instead. And Heaven gives no answer to the
Tx:30.94  and afraid when you are tempted by a dream of what he is. But do not  give it power to replace the changeless in him in your sight of him.
Tx:31.10  form of hate, each call to war. Yet you will recognize Him as you  give Him answer in the language that He calls. He will appear when
Tx:31.16  assuming it at times you want to let the follower in you arise and  give away the role of leadership. And this is what you made your
Tx:31.19 The answer that I  give my brother is what I am asking for. And what I learn of him is
Tx:31.27  you attack, for by attack do you assert that you are guilty and must  give as you deserve. And what can you deserve but what you are? If
Tx:31.28  itself. If you are sin, you lock the mind within the body, and you  give its purpose to its prison-house, which acts instead of it. A
Tx:31.69  of yourself and blacken it with still another “crime.” You cannot  give yourself your innocence, for you are too confused about
Tx:31.73  hope of change and keep it static and concealed within your mind.  Give it instead to Him Who understands the changes that it needs to
Tx:31.76  and you away from him. The sword of judgment is the weapon which you  give to the illusion of yourself that it may fight to keep the space
Tx:31.77  but the wish to stay in hell and misery? And what could this  give rise to but an image of yourself that can be miserable and
Tx:31.93  with everyone you see, for otherwise you will behold it not. To  give this gift is how to make it yours. And God ordained in loving
Tx:31.95  And as I would but do Your holy Will, so will they choose. And I  give thanks for them. Salvation's song will echo through the world
Tx:31.96  toward the light that shines beyond in perfect constancy.  Give me my own, for they belong to You. And can You fail in what is
Tx:31.96  for they belong to You. And can You fail in what is but Your Will? I  give You thanks for what my brothers are. And as each one elects to
W1:I.5  them. You are asked only to use them. It is their use which will  give them meaning to you and show you they are true. Remember only
W1:5.10  are disturbing you, regardless of the relative importance you may  give them. Apply the idea for today to each of them, using the name
W1:12.2  What you see does not matter. You teach yourself this as you  give whatever your glance rests on equal attention and equal time.
W1:12.2  attention and equal time. This is a beginning step in learning to  give them all equal value.
W1:18.1  idea for today is another step in learning that the thoughts which  give rise to what you see are never neutral or unimportant. It also
W1:20.1  you will not see if you regard yourself as being coerced and if you  give in to resentment and opposition.
W1:25.5 It is crucial to your learning to be willing to  give up the goals you have established for everything. The
W1:32.1  not the victim of the world you see because you invented it. You can  give it up as easily as you made it up. You will see it or not see
W1:39.3  salvation of the world. What about your own salvation? You cannot  give what you do not have. A savior must be saved. How else can he
W1:39.7  differently. And it is your blessing on them that will save you and  give you vision.
W1:43.2  his awareness. Perception has no meaning. Yet does the Holy Spirit  give it a meaning very close to God's. Healed perception becomes the

W1:47.1  or control? What is there in you that can be counted on? What would  give you the ability to be aware of all the facets of any problem and
W1:52.4  understand that I am trying to use time against God. Let me learn to  give the past away, realizing that in so doing I am giving up nothing.
W1:55.3  of God and the love of His Son. It is my own attack thoughts which  give rise to this picture. My loving thoughts will save me from this
W1:55.3  loving thoughts will save me from this perception of the world and  give me the peace God intended me to have.
W1:56.2  and complete fulfillment are my inheritance. I have tried to  give my inheritance away in exchange for the world I see. But God has
W1:57.2  me in this world. Only my wish to stay keeps me a prisoner. I would  give up my insane wishes and walk into the sunlight at last.
W1:63.2  The Son of God looks to you for his redemption. It is yours to  give him, for it belongs to you. Accept no trivial purpose or
W1:63.2  of you. You are asked to accept salvation that it may be yours to  give.
W1:66.8  it is necessary to define God as something He is not. Love cannot  give evil, and what is not happiness is evil. God cannot give what He
W1:66.8  Love cannot give evil, and what is not happiness is evil. God cannot  give what He does not have, and He cannot have what He is not. Unless
W1:66.10  it must be the gift of the ego. Does the ego really have gifts to  give, being itself an illusion and offering only the illusion of
W1:70.2  nothing outside yourself can save you; nothing outside yourself can  give you peace. But it also means that nothing outside yourself can

W1:75.11  of an hour or so that today is a time for special celebration.  Give thanks for mercy and the Love of God. Rejoice in the power of
W1:76.10  and nothing is replaced by something else. God's laws forever  give and never take.
W1:80.2  recognized your only problem, opening the way for the Holy Spirit to  give you God's answer. You have laid deception aside and seen the
W1:83.4 My perception of this does not change my function. This does not  give me a function other than the one God gave me. Let me not use
W1:83.4  God gave me. Let me not use this to justify a function God did not  give me.
W1:88.5  no laws but God's. I am constantly tempted to make up other laws and  give them power over me. I suffer only because of my belief in them.
W1:92.8  The light of strength is constant, sure as love, forever glad to  give itself away because it cannot give but to itself. No one can ask
W1:92.8  sure as love, forever glad to give itself away because it cannot  give but to itself. No one can ask in vain to share its sight, and
W1:92.10 Let us  give 20 minutes twice today to join this meeting. Let yourself be
W1:95.10  tolerance for weakness will enable us to overlook it, rather than  give it power to delay our learning. If we give it power to do this,
W1:95.10  overlook it, rather than give it power to delay our learning. If we  give it power to do this, we are regarding it as strength and are
W1:95.12  assurance, given to your mind with all the certainty that you can  give:
W1:95.20  world to be at one with you. To everyone you meet today be sure to  give the promise of today's idea and tell him this:
W1:96.15  the function that it sought to lose. Your Self will welcome it and  give it peace. Restored in strength, it will again flow out from
W1:96.17  and will accept the gift. Think, then, how much is given unto you to  give this day, that it be given you!
W1:97.3  sometimes a thousand years or more are saved. The minutes which you  give are multiplied over and over, for the miracle makes use of time
W1:97.4  these ideas becomes a time which has no length and which has no end.  Give, then, these minutes willingly, and count on Him Who promised to
W1:97.5  Give Him the minutes which He needs today to help you understand with
W1:97.10  accept this gift which you received of Him, increase its power, and  give it back to you.
W1:98.7 Each hour today  give Him your tiny gift of but five minutes. He will give the words
W1:98.7 Each hour today give Him your tiny gift of but five minutes. He will  give the words you use in practicing today's idea the deep conviction
W1:98.10  five minutes that you spend with Him, He will accept your words and  give them back to you all bright with faith and confidence so strong
W1:98.10  lose one chance to be the glad receiver of His gifts, that you may  give them to the world today.
W1:98.11  Give Him the words, and He will do the rest. He will enable you to
W1:99.18  tells you you are one. Remind yourself of this between the times you  give five minutes to be shared with Him Who shares God's plan with
W1:100.10  are His messenger today. And you must find what He would have you  give.
W1:101.9  again to find the joy these thoughts will introduce into your mind.  Give these five minutes gladly to remove the heavy load you laid upon
W1:104.1  of what you are. They come to you from God, Who cannot fail to  give you what He wills. Yet must there be a place made ready to
W1:105.1  as we receive them. They are not like to the gifts the world can  give, in which the giver loses as he gives the gift; the taker is the
W1:105.3  of the world you see. It strips all meaning from the gifts you  give and leaves you nothing in the ones you take. A major learning
W1:105.6  that what completes Him must complete His Son as well. He cannot  give through loss. No more can you. Receive His gift of joy and peace
W1:105.11  can today, but do not think that less is worthless when you cannot  give Him more. At least remember hourly to say the words which call
W1:105.11  more. At least remember hourly to say the words which call on Him to  give you what He wills to give and wills you to receive.
W1:105.11  to say the words which call on Him to give you what He wills to  give and wills you to receive.
W1:106.1  it may seem to call; if you will not accept its petty gifts which  give you nothing that you really want; if you will listen with an
W1:106.9 I will be still and listen to the truth. What does it mean to  give and to receive?
W1:106.12 Today the holy Word of God is kept through your receiving it to  give away, so you can teach the world what giving means by listening
W1:106.13  to the truth. I am the messenger of God today. My voice is His, to  give what I receive.
W1:107.8 Today belongs to truth.  Give truth its due, and it will give you yours. You were not meant to

W1:107.13 Then let Him lead you gently to the truth which will envelop you and  give you peace so deep and tranquil that you will return to the
W1:107.14  you will carry to the world. They will increase with every gift you  give of five small minutes, and the errors that surround the world
W1:108.7  lesson in the obvious because it has results we cannot miss. To  give is to receive. Today we will attempt to offer peace to everyone
W1:108.9 To  give and to receive are one in truth. I will receive what I am
W1:108.12  what you asked. It might be helpful, too, to think of one to whom to  give your gifts. He represents the others, and through him you give
W1:108.12  to give your gifts. He represents the others, and through him you  give to all.
W1:108.14 To  give and to receive are one in truth.
W1:109.11  rest together here, for thus our rest is made complete, and what we  give today we have received already. Time is not the guardian of what
W1:109.11  today we have received already. Time is not the guardian of what we  give today. We give to those unborn and those passed by, to every
W1:109.11  received already. Time is not the guardian of what we give today. We  give to those unborn and those passed by, to every Thought of God,
W1:110.2  therefore all you need to let complete correction heal your mind and  give you perfect vision which will heal all the mistakes that any

W1:R3.6 Place the ideas within your mind and let it use them as it chooses.  Give it faith that it will use them wisely, being helped in its

W1:R3.8  you devote the first five minutes of the day to your review and also  give the last five minutes of your waking day to it. If this cannot
W1:R3.10  not lie idly by between your longer practice periods. Attempt to  give your daily two ideas a brief but serious review each hour. Use
W1:R3.10  one on the hour and the other one a half an hour later. You need not  give more than just a moment to each one.

W1:121.8  minutes in the morning and at night another ten to learning how to  give forgiveness and receive forgiveness too.
W1:122.1 What could you want forgiveness cannot  give? Do you want peace? Forgiveness offers it. Do you want
W1:122.4 What would you want forgiveness cannot  give? What gifts but these are worthy to be sought? What fancied
W1:122.6  all of Heaven waits for you within? Forgive and be forgiven. As you  give, you will receive. There is no plan but this for the salvation
W1:122.7  now. It is the gift of God and not the world. The world can  give no gifts of any value to a mind which has received what God has
W1:122.10 Morning and evening do we gladly  give a quarter of an hour to the search in which the end of hell is
W1:123.2  self you thought you made to take the place of Him and His creation.  Give Him thanks today.
W1:123.3  Give thanks that He has not abandoned you and that His Love forever
W1:123.3  His Love forever will remain shining on you, forever without change.  Give thanks as well that you are changeless, for the Son He loves is
W1:123.4  we go to do what is appointed us to do. We do not go alone. And we  give thanks that in our solitude a Friend has come to speak the
W1:123.6 Receive the thanks of God today, as you  give thanks to Him. For He would offer you the thanks you give, since
W1:123.6  as you give thanks to Him. For He would offer you the thanks you  give, since He receives your gifts in loving gratitude and gives them
W1:123.8  perfect is His gratitude to you. Remember hourly to think of Him and  give Him thanks for everything He gave His Son that he might rise
W1:124.1 Today we will again  give thanks for our Identity in God. Our home is safe, protection
W1:124.2  with God and with itself. How easily do errors disappear and death  give place to everlasting life. Our shining footprints point the way
W1:124.7  we can save and heal accordingly. We have accepted and we now would  give, for we would keep the gifts our Father gave. Today we would
W1:124.8  God. This is our first attempt at an extended period for which we  give no rules nor special words to guide your meditation. We will
W1:125.4 Hear, holy Son of God, your Father speak. His Voice would  give to you His holy Word to spread across the world the tidings of
W1:125.5 He has not waited until you return your mind to Him to  give His Word to you. He has not hid Himself from you while you have
W1:125.7 Three times today, at times most suitable for silence,  give ten minutes set apart from listening to the world and choose
W1:126.3 When you “forgive” a sin there is no gain to you directly. You  give charity to one unworthy merely to point out that you are better,
W1:126.5  and sure. It is an eccentricity in which you sometimes choose to  give indulgently an undeserved reprieve. Yet it remains your right to
W1:126.6  overt attack, without requiring correction in your mind. It cannot  give you peace as you perceive it. It is not a means for your release
W1:126.8  to which you are accustomed. But the Help you need is there.  Give Him your faith today and ask Him that He share your practicing
W1:126.9  Give 15 minutes twice today to the attempt to understand today's
W1:126.12 All that I  give is given to myself. The Help I need to learn that this is true
W1:127.7 Let us together, then, be glad to  give some time to God today and understand there is no better use for
W1:127.8  He Himself will place a spark of truth within your mind wherever you  give up a false belief, a dark illusion of your own reality and what
W1:127.9  disappears before the timelessness of what you learn. Let us  give thanks today that we are spared a future like the past. Today we
W1:127.11  and who came to learn what you must learn. And as he comes to mind,  give him this message from your Self:
W1:128.1  that you can use in any way, nor anything at all that serves to  give you joy. Believe this thought, and you are saved from years of
W1:128.7  Give it ten minutes rest three times today. And when your eyes are
W1:129.10  and can understand. A day of grace is given you today, and we  give thanks. This day we realize that what you feared to lose was
W1:130.7 Six times today in thanks and gratitude we gladly  give five minutes to the thought which ends all compromise and doubt
W1:131.4  the world cannot dictate the goal for which you search unless you  give it power to do so. Otherwise, you still are free to choose a
W1:132.3  and release the future from your ancient fears, you find escape and  give it to the world.
W1:132.4  within your mind. The world is nothing in itself. Your mind must  give it meaning. And what you behold upon it are your wishes, acted
W1:132.5  to what was made already, hardly waiting for your thoughts to  give it meaning. Yet in truth you found exactly what you looked for
W1:132.13 Release the world! Your real creations wait for this release to  give you fatherhood, not of illusions, but as God in truth. God
W1:133.6  there is no compromise in what your choice must bring. It cannot  give you just a little, for there is no in-between. Each choice you
W1:134.15 That this may be accomplished, let us  give a quarter of an hour twice today and spend it with the Guide Who
W1:135.6  medicine, no care, and no concern at all. Defend its life, or  give it gifts to make it beautiful or walls to make it safe, and you
W1:135.23  our minds. Today we will receive instead of plan, that we may  give instead of organize. And we are given truly, as we say:
W1:135.26  It is hell that makes extravagant demands for sacrifice. You  give up nothing in these times today when undefended you present
W1:136.13  to plan defenses which would alter it. Truth merely wants to  give you happiness, for such its purpose is. Perhaps it sighs a
W1:136.15  giving welcome to the truth. This is our aim today. And we will  give a quarter of an hour twice to ask the truth to come to us and
W1:136.16  apart from us. It merely waits for just this invitation which we  give today. We introduce it with a healing prayer to help us rise
W1:136.21  a bodily identity which will attack the body, for the mind is sick.  Give instant remedy should this occur by not allowing your
W1:137.11  they are healed and all the grace of healing it is given them to  give. What is opposed to God does not exist. And who accepts it not
W1:137.14  prepared for such a gift. And so we will begin the day with this and  give ten minutes to these thoughts with which we will conclude today
W1:137.16  through you this very day. And as you rest in quiet, be prepared to  give as you receive, to hold but what you give, and to receive the
W1:137.16  in quiet, be prepared to give as you receive, to hold but what you  give, and to receive the Word of God to take the place of all the
W1:138.12  the choice that we have made each hour in between. And now we  give the last five minutes of our waking day to the decision with
W1:R4.10  to you through His Voice. Let each idea that you review that day  give you the gift which He has laid in it for you to have of Him. And
W1:R4.11  but let them be the messages they are. We need no more than this to  give us happiness and rest and endless quiet, perfect certainty, and
W1:R4.12  thanks to you who practice thus the keeping of His Word. And as you  give your mind to the ideas for the day again before you sleep, His
W1:143.2 [126] All that I  give is given to myself.
W1:151.13  each thought that comes to mind, remove the elements of dreams, and  give them back to you as clean ideas that do not contradict the Will
W1:151.14  Give Him your thoughts, and He will give them back as miracles which
W1:151.14 Give Him your thoughts, and He will  give them back as miracles which joyously proclaim the wholeness and
W1:151.15 Spend 15 minutes thus when you awake, and gladly  give another 15 more before you go to sleep. Your ministry begins as
W1:151.15  sanctity. No one can fail to listen when you hear the Voice for God  give honor to God's Son. And everyone will share the thoughts with
W1:151.17  we will hourly remember Him Who is salvation and deliverance. As we  give thanks the world unites with us and happily accepts our holy
W1:153.15  thought as long as possible. Five minutes now becomes the least we  give to preparation for a day in which salvation is the only goal we
W1:153.15  an hour is too short a time to spend with God. Nor will we willingly  give less at night in gratitude and joy.
W1:153.21  Him. These are His gifts to you. Defenselessness is all you need to  give Him in return. You lay aside but what was never real to look on
W1:154.5  receive the message that he brings. It is enough that he accept it,  give it to the ones for whom it is appointed, and fulfill his role in
W1:154.6  for themselves that they become able to bring them further and to  give them everywhere that they were meant to be. Like earthly
W1:154.6  receivers in the truest sense, receiving to prepare themselves to  give.
W1:154.7  them by His authority. And so they gain by every message which they  give away.
W1:154.8  become His messengers. You are appointed now. And yet you wait to  give the messages you have received, and so you do not know that they
W1:154.12  lesson for today: we will not recognize what we receive until we  give it. You have heard this said a hundred ways, a hundred times,
W1:155.4 If truth demanded they  give up the world, it would appear to them as if it asked the
W1:155.12  your effort, of your love, and of your full intent? What way could  give you more than everything or offer less and still content the
W1:157.6  vision of what you experience this day to light the world. We cannot  give experience like this directly. Yet it leaves a vision in our
W1:158.2  the world but has received it. It is not this knowledge which you  give, for that is what creation gave. All this cannot be learned.
W1:158.2  gave. All this cannot be learned. What, then, are you to learn to  give today? Our lesson yesterday evoked a theme found early in the
W1:158.5 The teacher does not  give experience because he did not learn it. It revealed itself to
W1:158.5  to him at its appointed time. But vision is his gift. This he can  give directly, for Christ's knowledge is not lost because He has a
W1:158.5  for Christ's knowledge is not lost because He has a vision He can  give to anyone who asks. The Father's Will and His are joined in
W1:158.8  achieve it. It requires but the recognition that the world cannot  give anything that faintly can compare with this in value; nor set up
W1:158.8  does not merely disappear when this has been perceived. And this you  give today—see no one as a body. Greet him as the Son of God he is,
W1:158.10 Thus do you learn to  give as you receive. And thus Christ's vision looks on you as well.
W1:158.11  comes, for that is not of time. Yet time has still one gift to  give in which true knowledge is reflected in a way so accurate its
W1:158.11  seeing with the eyes of Christ today. And by the holy gifts we  give, Christ's vision looks upon ourselves as well.
W1:159.1 No one can  give what he has not received. To give a thing requires first you
W1:159.1 No one can give what he has not received. To  give a thing requires first you have it in your own possession. Here
W1:159.1  to possess a thing, it must be kept. Salvation teaches otherwise. To  give is how to recognize you have received. It is the proof that what
W1:159.2 You understand that you are healed when you  give healing. You accept forgiveness as accomplished in yourself when
W1:159.2  do you perceive that you are whole. There is no miracle you cannot  give, for all are given you. Receive them now by opening the
W1:159.4  are born. It is their source, remaining with each miracle you  give and yet remaining yours. It is the bond by which the giver and
W1:159.8  love with which He looks on them. And they become His messengers who  give as they received.
W1:159.10 Behold the store of miracles set out for you to  give. Are you not worth the gift when God appointed it be given you?
W1:160.5  here. And so I leave my home to one more like me than myself and  give him all I thought belonged to me.” Now is he exiled of
W1:160.9  Him as a stranger, for they do not recognize themselves. Yet as they  give Him welcome, they remember. And He leads them gently home again
W1:160.10 Not one does He forget. Not one He fails to  give you to remember that your home may be complete and perfect as it
W1:161.3  made. And now it is specifics we must use in practicing. We  give them to the Holy Spirit that He may employ them for a purpose
W1:161.10  in his hands is your salvation. Ask him but for this, and he will  give it to you. Ask him not to symbolize your fear. Would you request
W1:164.2  you. Christ answers for you, echoing your Self, using your voice to  give His glad consent, accepting your deliverance for you.
W1:164.3  answers in your name the call He hears. How quiet is the time you  give to spend with Him beyond the world. How easily are all your
W1:165.7  and your certainty of Him. We count on God and not upon ourselves to  give us certainty. And in His Name we practice as His Word directs we
W1:166.12  for you alone. What He has come to offer you, you now must learn to  give. This is the lesson that His giving holds, for He has saved you
W1:166.13 The gifts are yours, entrusted to your care to  give to all who chose the lonely road you have escaped. They do not
W1:167.2  feelings that are not supremely happy. It is the alarm to which you  give response of any kind that is not perfect joy. All sorrow, loss,
W1:167.5  contains. In that they can go far beyond themselves. But they cannot  give birth to what was never given them. As they are made, so will
W1:167.5  made, so will their making be. As they were born, so will they then  give birth. And where they come from, there will they return.
W1:167.6  it has no source. For mind creates all things that are and cannot  give them attributes it lacks nor change its own eternal, mindful
W1:168.2  despair, for in it lies remembrance of His Love. Would He not gladly  give the means by which His Will is recognized? His grace is yours by
W1:168.4 God loves His Son. Request Him now to  give the means by which this world will disappear, and vision first
W1:169.13  do not ask for the unaskable. We do not look beyond what grace can  give. For this we can give in the grace that has been given us.
W1:169.13  We do not look beyond what grace can give. For this we can  give in the grace that has been given us.
W1:169.15 By grace I live. By grace I am released. By grace I  give. By grace I will release.
W1:170.14  us. We bring them Your salvation as we have received it now. And we  give thanks for them who render us complete. In them we see Your
W1:170.14  our peace. Holy are we because Your holiness has set us free. And we  give thanks. Amen.
W1:R5.1 We now review again. This time we are ready to  give more effort and more time to what we undertake. We recognize we
W1:R5.2  and our holy minds be still, and speak to us. We have no words to  give to You. We would but listen to Your Word and make it ours. Lead
W1:R5.11  me. For this alone I need—that you will hear the words I speak and  give them to the world. You are my voice, my eyes, my feet, my hands,
W1:174.3 [158] Today I learn to  give as I receive. God is but Love, and therefore so am I.
W1:175.2 [159] I  give the miracles I have received. God is but Love, and therefore so
W1:176.2 [161]  Give me your blessing, holy Son of God. God is but Love, and
W1:I2.1  It is experiencing this which makes it sure that you will  give your total willingness to following the way the course sets
W1:I2.2  brings. But the experience of freedom and of peace that comes as you  give up your tight control of what you see speaks for itself. Your
W1:181.2  you behold will change accordingly. Your vision now will shift to  give support to the intent which has replaced the one you held
W1:181.3 Therefore in practicing today, we first let all such little focuses  give way to our great need to let our sinlessness become apparent. We
W1:181.10  ahead nor backwards. We look straight into the present. And we  give our trust to the experience we ask for now. Our sinlessness is
W1:182.5  His Father's house. You are His home as well. He will return. But  give Him just a little time to be Himself within the peace that is
W1:183.8 Thus do we  give an invitation which can never be refused. And God will come and
W1:183.10  the gifts of grace. You can escape all bondage of the world and  give the world the same release you found. You can remember what the
W1:183.11  his claim to all his Father gave, is giving still, and will forever  give. He calls on Him to let all things he thought he made be
W1:184.1  surrounding it. This space you lay between all things to which you  give a different name—all happenings in terms of place and time,
W1:184.8  to what you call him, for his mind consents to take the name you  give him as his own. And thus his unity is twice denied, for you
W1:184.14  to see beyond them. Now our sight is blessed with blessings we can  give as we receive.
W1:184.15  And we are glad and thankful we were wrong. All our mistakes we  give to You, that we may be absolved of all effects our errors seemed
W1:184.15  all effects our errors seemed to have. And we accept the truth You  give in place of every one of them. Your Name is our salvation and
W1:185.4  cannot unite in dreams. They merely bargain. And what bargain can  give them the peace of God? Illusions come to take His place. And
W1:185.11  Who could be unanswered who requests an answer which is his to  give? The peace of God is yours.
W1:186.10  serene when you accept the function given you. The images you make  give rise to but conflicting goals, impermanent and vague, uncertain
W1:186.13  need His Son perceives, although He sees them not. For Love must  give, and what is given in His Name takes on the form most useful in
W1:187.1 No one can  give unless he has. In fact, giving is proof of having. We have made
W1:187.1  this. No one can doubt that you must first possess what you would  give. It is the second phase on which the world and true perception
W1:187.2 How is this possible? For it is sure that if you  give a finite thing away, your body's eyes will not perceive it
W1:187.2  thoughts that make them. And you do not lack for proof that when you  give ideas away, you strengthen them in your own mind. Perhaps the
W1:187.3 Ideas must first belong to you before you  give them. If you are to save the world, you first accept salvation
W1:187.5  Give gladly. You can only gain thereby. The thought remains and grows
W1:187.5  conceives of them. There is a giver who retains, another who will  give as well. And both must gain in this exchange, for each will have
W1:187.6 Never forget you  give but to yourself. Who understands what giving means must laugh at
W1:187.8  blessing will correct it. Given first to you, it now is yours to  give as well. No form of sacrifice and suffering can long endure
W1:187.10  innocence has joined us all as one, we stand in blessedness and  give as we receive. The Name of God is on our lips. And as we look
W1:188.3  are given everyone, and everyone unites in giving thanks to you who  give and you who have received.
W1:188.4  given and returned. To you, the giver of the gift, does God Himself  give thanks. And in His blessing does the light in you shine
W1:188.5  of God can never be contained. Who recognizes it within himself must  give it. And the means for giving it are in his understanding. He
W1:188.6  your eyes. The light within you is sufficient. It alone has power to  give the gift of sight to you. Exclude the outer world and let your
W1:190.8  a cruel and a bitter place, where sorrow rules and little joys  give way before the onslaught of the savage pain that waits to end
W1:191.10  has come in glory to redeem the lost, to save the helpless, and to  give the world the gift of his forgiveness. Who could see the world
W1:192.7  met with thanks, and joyously accepted? We are one and therefore  give up nothing. But we have indeed been given everything by God. Yet
W1:193.2  Thus he has a need for One Who can correct his erring sight and  give him vision that will lead him back to where perception ceases.
W1:193.10  their power to release all minds from bondage? These are words which  give you power over all events which seem to have been given power
W1:193.15  Give all you can and give a little more, for now we would arise in
W1:193.15 Give all you can and  give a little more, for now we would arise in haste and go unto our
W1:193.15  we saved to settle by ourselves and kept apart from healing. Let us  give them all to Him Who knows the way to look upon them so that they
W1:193.16  in forgiveness in the form established for the day. And try to  give it application to the happenings the hour brought, so that the
W1:194.2  on it. You are saved, and your salvation thus becomes the gift you  give the world because you have received.
W1:194.6  for today as the deliverance it really is, you will not hesitate to  give as much consistent effort as you can to make it be a part of
W1:195.5 Therefore  give thanks, but in sincerity. And let your gratitude make room for
W1:195.6  our function to complete the One Who is Himself completion. We  give thanks for every living thing, for otherwise we offer thanks for
W1:196.12  holy peace of God. How kind and merciful is the idea we practice!  Give it welcome, as you should, for it is your release. It is indeed
W1:197.3  gifts because they were not honored? It is you who honor them and  give them fitting thanks, for it is you who have received the gifts.
W1:197.5 God blesses every gift you  give to Him and every gift is given Him because it can be given only
W1:197.6 Withdraw the gifts you  give, and you will think that what is given you has been withdrawn.
W1:197.9  Give thanks as you receive it. Be you free of all ingratitude to
W1:197.9  makes your Self complete. And from this Self is no one left outside.  Give thanks for all the countless channels which extend this Self.
W1:198.14  is perfect in his holiness. He needs no thoughts of mercy. Who could  give him gifts when everything is his? And who could dream of
W1:198.15  that He Who brought us here will not forsake us now. For He would  give to us the gift that God has given us through Him today. Now is
W1:199.5  idea. And would you be exempt from the acceptance of the gifts you  give?
W1:199.7  Let love replace their fears through you. Accept salvation now, and  give your mind to Him Who calls to you to make this gift to Him. For
W1:199.7  mind to Him Who calls to you to make this gift to Him. For He would  give you perfect freedom, perfect joy, and hope that finds its full
W1:R6.1  day, and practice it as often as is possible. Besides the time we  give morning and evening, which should not be less than 15 minutes,
W1:R6.1  for salvation, if it were learned truly. Each would be enough to  give release to you and to the world from every form of bondage and
W1:R6.10  expressions for specific thoughts to aid your practicing. Instead we  give these times of quiet to the Teacher Who instructs in quiet,
W1:206.1  am entrusted with the gifts of God because I am His Son. And I would  give His gifts where He intended them to be. I am not a body. I am
W1:215.1  The Holy Spirit is my only Guide. He walks with me in love. And I  give thanks to Him for showing me the way to go. I am not a body. I
W1:217.1 [197] It can be but my gratitude I earn. Who should  give thanks for my salvation but myself? And how but through
W2:I.6 I am so close to you we cannot fail. Father, we  give these holy times to You in gratitude to Him Who taught us how to
W2:I.11  while, preceding one of the holy and blessed instants in the day. We  give the first of these instructions now.
W2:221.1 Father, I come to You today to seek the peace that You alone can  give. I come in silence. In the quiet of my heart, the deep recesses
W2:224.1  wholly beneficent and free from guilt that Heaven looks to it to  give it light. It lights the world as well. It is the gift my Father
W2:224.1  world as well. It is the gift my Father gave me, the one as well I  give the world. There is no gift but this that can be either given or
W2:227.1  and did not affect my own reality at all by my illusions. Now I  give them up and lay them down before the feet of truth, to be
W2:WS.5 From here we  give salvation to the world, for it is here salvation was received.
W2:233.1 Father, I  give You all my thoughts today. I would have none of mine. In place
W2:233.1  all my thoughts today. I would have none of mine. In place of them,  give me Your own. I give You all my acts as well, that I may do Your
W2:233.1  I would have none of mine. In place of them, give me Your own. I  give You all my acts as well, that I may do Your will instead of
W2:233.2  we have one Guide to lead us on. And as we walk together, we will  give this day to Him with no reserve at all. This is His day. And so
W2:234.2  lose the memory of You and of Your Love. We recognize our safety and  give thanks for all the gifts You have bestowed on us, for all the
W2:236.1  whatever purpose I perceive in it. My mind can only serve. Today I  give its service to the Holy Spirit to employ as He sees fit. I thus
W2:238.1  indeed. And I must be steadfast in holiness as well, that You would  give Your Son to me in certainty that He is safe Who still is part of
W2:240.2 How foolish are our fears! Would You allow Your Son to suffer?  Give us faith today to recognize Your Son and set him free. Let us
W2:WIW.4  it. Hear His Voice alone in all that speaks to you. And let Him  give you peace and certainty, which you have thrown away but Heaven
W2:242.1  to make no choices for me but the ones that lead to God. This day I  give to Him, for I would not delay my coming home, and it is He Who
W2:242.2 And so we  give today to You. We come with wholly open minds. We do not ask for
W2:242.2  open minds. We do not ask for anything that we may think we want.  Give us what You would have received by us. You know all our desires
W2:242.2  received by us. You know all our desires and our needs. And You will  give us everything we want and that will help us find the way to You.
W2:245.1  everyone I meet. I bring it to the desolate and lonely and afraid. I  give Your peace to those who suffer pain or grieve for loss or think
W2:245.2 And so we go in peace. To all the world we  give the message that we have received. And thus we come to hear the
W2:251.2 And for that peace, our Father, we  give thanks. What we denied ourselves You have restored, and only
W2:255.1  cares and must remain forever in the peace of Heaven. In his name I  give today to finding what my Father wills for me, accepting it as
W2:262.1  I perceive a thousand forms in what remains as one? Why should I  give this one a thousand names, when only one suffices? For Your Son
W2:270.1  this world! Yet how much more will I perceive in it than sight can  give. The world forgiven signifies Your Son acknowledges his Father,
W2:273.1  more than satisfied to learn how such a day can be achieved. If we  give way to a disturbance, let us learn how to dismiss it and return
W2:274.1 Father, today I would let all things be as You created them and  give Your Son the honor due his sinlessness, the love of brother to
W2:274.2 A special blessing comes to us today from Him Who is our Father.  Give this day to Him and there will be no fear today because the day
W2:275.2  speak, and what to say to him, what thoughts to think, what words to  give the world. The safety that I bring is given me. Father, Your
W2:279.2 I will accept Your promises today and  give my faith to them. My Father loves the Son Whom He created as His
W2:280.2 Today let me  give honor to Your Son, for thus alone I find the way to You. Father,

W2:286.2 The stillness of today will  give us hope that we have found the way and traveled far along it to
W2:295.2 My Father, Christ has asked a gift of me, and one I  give that it be given me. Help me to use the eyes of Christ today and
W2:297.1 Forgiveness is the only gift I  give because it is the only gift I want, and everything I give I give
W2:297.1  gift I give because it is the only gift I want, and everything I  give I give myself. This is salvation's simple formula. And I, who
W2:297.1  I give because it is the only gift I want, and everything I give I  give myself. This is salvation's simple formula. And I, who would be
W2:300.2  what to do to be restored to Heaven and our true Identity. And we  give thanks today the world endures but for an instant. We would go
W2:306.2  with empty hands and open hearts and minds, asking but what You  give. We cannot make an offering sufficient for Your Son. But in Your
W2:307.1  happiness, and only Yours exists. If I would have what only You can  give, I must accept Your will for me and enter into peace where
W2:308.1  The birth of Christ is now, without a past or future. He has come to  give His present blessing to the world, restoring it to timelessness
W2:WILJ.4  God acknowledges as His. Be not afraid of this. Salvation asks you  give it welcome. And the world awaits your glad acceptance, which
W2:316.1 As every gift my brothers  give is mine, so every gift I give belongs to me. Each one allows a
W2:316.1 As every gift my brothers give is mine, so every gift I  give belongs to me. Each one allows a past mistake to go and leave no
W2:322.1  tried to hide, awaiting me in shining welcome and in readiness to  give God's ancient messages to me. His memory abides in every gift
W2:322.2  And so I cannot sacrifice except in dreams. As You created me, I can  give up nothing You gave me. What You did not give has no reality.
W2:322.2  You created me, I can give up nothing You gave me. What You did not  give has no reality. What loss can I anticipate except the loss of
W2:323.1  is the only “sacrifice” You ask of Your beloved Son—You ask him to  give up all suffering, all sense of loss and sadness, all anxiety and
W2:327.1  He has not abandoned me and loves me still, awaiting but my call to  give me all the help I need to come to Him.
W2:327.2  to try them and to judge them not. Your word is one with You. You  give the means whereby conviction comes, and surety of Your abiding
W2:330.1  forgiveness as our only function. Why should we attack our minds and  give them images of pain? Why should we teach them they are powerless
W2:334.2  You are offering to his bewildered mind and frightened heart, to  give him certainty and bring him peace? Today I would behold my
W2:343.1  cannot be loss. The gift of everything can but be gain. You only  give. You never take away. And You created me to be like You, so
W2:343.1  so sacrifice becomes impossible for me as well as You. I too must  give, and so all things are given unto me forever and forever. As I
W2:343.1  I am complete because I am Your Son. I cannot lose, for I can only  give. And everything is mine eternally.
W2:344.1  dream? And what can an illusion offer me? Yet he whom I forgive will  give me gifts beyond the worth of anything on earth. Let my forgiven
W2:345.1  a miracle reflects Your gifts to me, Your Son. And every one I  give returns to me, reminding me the law of love is universal. Even
W2:345.1  a form which can be recognized and seen to work. The miracles I  give are given back in just the form I need to help me with the
W2:345.1  the miracle is closer to Your gifts than any other gift which I can  give. Then let me give this gift alone today, which, born of true
W2:345.1  to Your gifts than any other gift which I can give. Then let me  give this gift alone today, which, born of true forgiveness, lights
W2:347.1  offered freedom, and I choose to claim Your gift today. And so I  give all judgment to the One You gave to me to judge for me. He sees
W2:349.1 So would I liberate all things I see and  give to them the freedom that I seek. For thus do I obey the law of
W2:349.1  them the freedom that I seek. For thus do I obey the law of love and  give what I would find and make my own. It will be given me because I
W2:349.1  It will be given me because I have chosen it as the gift I want to  give. Father, Your gifts are mine. Each one that I accept gives me a
W2:349.1  Your gifts are mine. Each one that I accept gives me a miracle to  give. And giving as I would receive, I learn Your healing miracles
W2:350.1  only my forgiveness teaches me to let Your memory return to me and  give it to the world in thankfulness.
W2:353.1 Father, I  give all that is mine today to Christ to use in any way that best
W2:357.1  then in me. Your Voice instructs me patiently to hear Your Word and  give as I receive. And as I look upon Your Son today, I hear Your
W2:358.1  want. You speak for God, and so You speak for me. And what You  give me comes from God Himself. Your Voice, my Father, then is mine
W2:360.1 Father, it is Your peace that I would  give, receiving it of You. I am Your Son, forever just as You created
W2:FL.1  our footsteps sure. To Him we leave these lessons, as to Him we  give our lives henceforth. For we would not return again to the
W2:361.1 And if I need a word to help me, He will  give it to me. If I need a thought, that will He also give. And if I
W2:361.1  me, He will give it to me. If I need a thought, that will He also  give. And if I need but stillness and a tranquil, open mind, these
W2:E.1  troubles you, be certain that He has the answer and will gladly  give it to you if you simply turn to Him and ask it of Him. He will
W2:E.4  difficulty and all pain that you may think is real. Nor will He  give you pleasures that will pass away, for He gives only the eternal
M:I.2  you want to teach on the basis of what you want to learn. You cannot  give to someone else, and this you learn through teaching. Teaching
M:4.7  such a demand would be. He can learn this only as he actually does  give up the valueless. Through this he learns that where he
M:4.19  world speaks of. The teacher of God does not want anything he cannot  give away because he realizes it would be valueless to him by
M:4.19  for His Son. These are the things that belong to him. These he can  give away in true generosity, protecting them forever for himself.
M:4.21  on just some problems, remaining carefully limited for a time. To  give up all problems to one Answer is to reverse the thinking of the
M:5.3  weakness is his strength. Now has he given himself what God would  give to him and thus entirely usurped the throne of his Creator.
M:5.5  it is. Special agents seem to be ministering to him, yet they but  give form to his own choice. He chooses them to bring tangible form
M:5.9  heal. It is not their voice that speaks the Word of God. They merely  give what has been given them. Very gently they call to their
M:6.3  evaluate the outcome of their gifts. It is merely their function to  give them. Once they have done that, they have also given the
M:6.3  also given the outcome, for that is part of the gift. No one can  give if he is concerned with the result of the giving. That is a
M:7.3  nor is there more that he could do. By accepting healing, he can  give it. If he doubts this, let him remember Who gave the gift and
M:9.2  This becomes easier and easier as the teacher of God learns to  give up his own judgment. The giving up of judgment, the obvious
M:12.5  of God does not make this decision alone. To do that would be to  give the body another purpose from the one that keeps it holy. God's
M:13.1  another thought system can take hold, is that it is a sacrifice to  give up the things of this world. What could this be but an illusion,
M:13.2  both to realize and to accept the fact that the world has nothing to  give. What can the sacrifice of nothing mean? It cannot mean that you
M:13.4  regret on giving up the pleasures of the world. Is it a sacrifice to  give up pain? Does an adult resent the giving up of children's toys?
M:13.7  that sacrifice is total. There are no “half sacrifices.” You cannot  give up Heaven partially. You cannot be a little bit in hell. The
M:15.4  your best efforts meet with lack of appreciation and even contempt,  give up these foolish thoughts. They are too small and meaningless to
M:16.2  lack of structuring on their own part. What must they do to learn to  give the day to God? There are some general rules which do apply,
M:16.4  an hour with closed eyes and accomplish nothing. One can as easily  give God only an instant, and in that instant join with Him
M:16.6  see in dreams. It is not so. Your safety lies not there. What you  give up is merely the illusion of protecting illusions. And it is
M:16.10  two aspects of one error and no more, he merely chooses to  give up all that he never had. And for this “sacrifice” is Heaven
M:17.2  teacher and to pupil. How many times has it been emphasized that you  give but to yourself? And where could this be better shown than in
M:17.2  need his aid? Here is his gift most clearly given him. For he will  give only what he has chosen for himself. And in this gift is his
M:17.8  not lead to condemnation, for they do not really have the power to  give rise to guilt. And so they can be overlooked and thus forgotten
M:17.9  to recognize its thought system is to look on nothing. Can nothing  give rise to anger? Hardly so. Remember then, teacher of God, that
M:23.1  be received directly. Even the most advanced of God's teachers will  give way to temptation in this world. Would it be fair if their
M:23.4  moment that the name is called to mind. Remembering His name is to  give thanks for all the gifts that God has given you. And gratitude
M:23.5  be grateful to him? He has asked for love, but only that he might  give it to you. You do not love yourself. But in his eyes your
M:26.2  do so. To those to whom such appearances would be frightening, they  give their ideas. No one can call on them in vain. Nor is there
M:26.2  them. The time will come when this is understood. And meanwhile they  give all their gifts to the teachers of God who look to them for
M:29.7  was created, so he is. In confidence I place you in His hands, and I  give thanks for you that this is so.
M:29.8  reflects your holiness, for you are not alone and friendless. I  give thanks for you and join your efforts on behalf of God, knowing

C:21.8  is achieved. Until unity is achieved you do not understand that you  give meaning to all things, and that there is nothing and no one
C:22.10  passes and your awareness of it that determines the meaning you  give it. You are much more like unto the layers of the onion than the
C:25.7  true service. True service does not look for what another has to  give or what another has that you might use. True service recognizes
C:26.7  meaning and letting fear keep you from seeking the meaning you would  give it. You feel no inherent sense of purpose, no grace, no meaning
C:26.7  sense of purpose, no grace, no meaning beyond what you would  give to your own endeavors.

C:28.12  you feel the need to convince others of your belief, the need to  give form to what is beyond form misses the point of what you have
C:29.3  service to God is not to be a slave to God but to attend to God. To  give God your attention and your care. You who would cry, God make
C:29.3  and your care. You who would cry, God make use of me, only need to  give to God your devotion and your willingness to serve instead of
C:31.6  more than your conscious mind could handle. You could not possibly  give all the commands necessary if such commands were needed.
C:31.10  Give up this notion of losing your Self to God, and you will be done

T1:1.3 The first instruction I  give to you is to seek no more. All that you are in need of knowing

D:2.11  have believed “works for you” is really like a game of chance. You  give it a try, and if the outcome is as you desired it to be you call
D:3.7  the old. This is as far as acceptance and denial need go. For if you  give credence to the ideas of contrast, you bring those ideas forward
D:3.23 What this portion of the dialogue attempts to do is to  give you a language to support what you already know, and are already
D:4.20  to do with who you are now that you are no longer a prisoner. Do not  give keys to a new jailer and ask to be taken care of in exchange for
D:4.23  to whom you can turn. But in place of that “outside” authority, I  give you your own authority, an authority you must claim in order for

D:Day2.13 I could  give thousands of examples here, but the point is that we are not

D:Day10.20 I ask you not to  give up your relationship with me as the man Jesus, but to accept
D:Day10.20  in form, of Christ-consciousness. I do, however, ask you to  give up your identification of the voice of this dialogue as that
D:Day10.27  of the constraints of the body. This is as good an idea as I can  give you of how to imagine the elevated Self of form, as not much

Tx:15.43  none that you would keep. Innocence is not of your making. It is  given you the instant you would have it. Yet it would not be
Tx:15.65  there is no other love. This is the only love that is fully  given and fully returned. Being complete, it asks nothing. Being
Tx:15.85  this shift entails, so you will become willing to make it permanent.  Given this willingness, it will not leave you, for it is permanent.
Tx:15.87  in awareness, the recognition of relationships without limits is  given you. But to see this, it is necessary to give up every use the
Tx:15.87  with all its might and will do so with the strength which you have  given it.
Tx:15.88  your power unto creation, which is the only purpose for which it was  given you. Love would always give increase. Limits are demanded by
Tx:15.99  real price of not accepting this has been so great that you have  given God away rather than look at it. For if God would demand total
Tx:15.101  try longer to keep apart your thoughts and the Thought that has been  given you. When they are brought together and perceived where they
Tx:16.15  what it is and giving thanks for it? Honor the truth that has been  given you, and be glad you do not understand it. Miracles are natural
Tx:16.15  for you, and do not turn away from all the witnesses that He has  given you to His reality.
Tx:16.18  to see and hear them. This year, determine not to deny what has been  given you by God[. Awake and share it], for that is the only reason
Tx:16.19  will give you everything that makes for happiness. You have never  given any problem to the Holy Spirit He has not solved for you, nor
Tx:16.20 This is the year for the application of the ideas which have been  given you. For the ideas are mighty forces to be used and not held
Tx:16.37  could never be complete. No specialness can offer you what God has  given and what you are joined with Him in giving.
Tx:16.69  of your unwillingness for your release, His perfect willingness is  given you. Call upon Him, for Heaven is at His call. And let Him
Tx:16.77 What God has  given you is truly given and will be truly received. For God's
Tx:16.77 What God has given you is truly  given and will be truly received. For God's gifts have no reality
Tx:16.77  because it is His Will to give. He gave the holy instant to be  given you, and it is impossible that you receive it not, because He
Tx:16.77  teaches you is to remind you that you have received what God has  given you.
Tx:16.81  Son of God is not Your will. And let us receive only what you have  given and accept but this into the minds which You created and which
Tx:17.13  It will give you the real world, trembling with readiness to be  given you. The eagerness of the Holy Spirit to give you this is so
Tx:17.14  only the loving thoughts you gave in the past and those that were  given you. All the rest must be forgotten. Forgiveness is a selective
Tx:17.20  is remembered, yet there to come alive as the relationship is  given to Him Who gives it life and beauty. That is why Atonement
Tx:17.28  that all that is meant is that He will restore to them the function  given them by God. The function you have given them is clearly not
Tx:17.28  to them the function given them by God. The function you have  given them is clearly not to make happy. But the holy relationship
Tx:17.35  at the picture. Do not let the frame distract you. This gift is  given you for your damnation, and if you take it, you will believe
Tx:17.40  a transformation of both pictures can at last occur. And each is  given its rightful place, when both are seen in relation to each
Tx:17.42  they are. They are in us through His ascendance. What He has  given is His. It shines in every part of Him as in the whole. The
Tx:17.47  the goal more slowly, for the contrast would be obscured and the ego  given time to reinterpret each slow step according to its liking.
Tx:17.49  answer? You are not now wholly insane. Can you deny that He has  given you a most explicit statement? Now He asks for faith a little
Tx:17.54  And it is impossible to deny yourself and recognize what has been  given and received by you.
Tx:17.56  As you begin to recognize and accept the gifts you have so freely  given to each other, you will also accept the effects of the holy
Tx:17.67 Only what you have not  given can be lacking in any situation. But remember this: the goal
Tx:17.74  is meant to be. The meaning which the Holy Spirit's purpose has  given it is also given to every situation. It calls forth just the
Tx:17.74  be. The meaning which the Holy Spirit's purpose has given it is also  given to every situation. It calls forth just the same suspension of
Tx:17.76  instant of every situation? For such is the gift of faith, freely  given wherever faithlessness is laid aside unused. And then the power
Tx:17.78  are now fully responsible to him. Fail him not now, for it has been  given you to realize what your lack of faith in him must mean to
Tx:18.1  once how much at variance this is with the goal the Holy Spirit has  given you and would accomplish for you. To substitute is to choose
Tx:18.13  it here, and you will give as you have accepted. The peace of God is  given you with the glowing purpose in which you join. The holy light
Tx:18.16  is laid upon you. For a time, it seems as if the world were  given you, to make it what you will. You do not realize that you are
Tx:18.21  Think not that He has forgotten anyone in the purpose He has  given you. And think not that He has forgotten you to whom He gave
Tx:18.27  other. You will succeed only in frightening yourselves. The gift is  given forever, for God Himself received it. You cannot take it
Tx:18.29  willing to bring the darkness to light, and this willingness has  given strength to everyone who would remain in darkness. Those who
Tx:18.36  Seek not to answer it, but merely receive the answer as it is  given. In preparing for the holy instant, do not attempt to make
Tx:18.59  is perceived as separate. What really happens is that you have  given up the illusion of a limited awareness and lost your fear of
Tx:18.66  cannot prepare for it without placing it in the future. Release is  given you the instant you desire it. Many have spent a lifetime in
Tx:18.67  the giving in to sin; when the light comes at last into the mind  given to contemplation; or when the goal is finally achieved by
Tx:18.68  it for just one instant, and you will accomplish more than is  given to a century of contemplation or of struggle against temptation.
Tx:19.2  vision does the Holy Spirit share. And since He shares it, He has  given it, and so He heals through you. It is this joining Him in a
Tx:19.6  body must be healed, and not the mind. For this divided goal has  given both an equal reality, which could be possible only if the mind
Tx:19.7  where both must be, are recognized as dedication to illusion and  given up when brought to truth and seen as totally irreconcilable
Tx:19.12 Faith is the gift of God, through Him Whom God has  given you. Faithlessness looks upon the Son of God and judges him
Tx:19.13  of Him Who joined you and in Whom you are united. Grace is not  given to a body, but to a mind. And the mind that receives it looks
Tx:19.13  place where it was healed. There is the altar where the grace was  given, in which it stands. Do you, then, offer grace and blessing to
Tx:19.22  be corrected, if truth be left to judge it. But if the mistake is  given the status of truth, to what can it be brought? The
Tx:19.34  it becomes invisible. And errors are quickly recognized and quickly  given to correction to be healed, not hidden. You will be healed of
Tx:19.35  upon each other in glad acknowledgment of the grace that has been  given you. For sin will not prevail against a union Heaven has smiled
Tx:19.35  before your holy sight, for you who were sightless have been  given vision, and you can see. Look not for what has been removed but
Tx:19.38  Call of God. And you will draw him in and give him rest, as it was  given you. All this will you do. Yet the peace which already lies
Tx:19.44  miracle of your relationship to everyone contained in it, as it was  given.
Tx:19.53 The Holy Spirit has  given you love's messengers to send instead of those you trained
Tx:19.54  messengers to remove from it and see it still. The Holy Spirit has  given you His messengers to send to each other and return to each
Tx:19.54  to each other and return to each with what love sees. They have been  given to replace the hungry dogs of fear you sent instead. And they
Tx:19.61 Is it a sacrifice or a release? What has the body really  given you that justifies your strange belief that in it lies
Tx:19.69  and not an end. It has no purpose of itself, but only what is  given to it. The body will seem to be whatever is the means for
Tx:19.73  medium, the body receives and sends the messages that it is  given. It has no feeling for them. All of the feeling with which they
Tx:19.73  feeling for them. All of the feeling with which they are invested is  given by the sender and the receiver. The ego and the Holy Spirit
Tx:19.76 It is not  given to the ego's disciples to realize that they have dedicated
Tx:19.76  accepted it, and what is offered must also be received to be truly  given. For the Holy Spirit, too, is a communication medium, receiving
Tx:19.77 To you in whose special relationship the Holy Spirit entered, it is  given to release and be released from the dedication to death. For it
Tx:19.83 You who are dedicated to the incorruptible have been  given through your acceptance the power to release from corruption.
Tx:19.86  and quietly made ready to fulfill the mighty task for which it was  given you. Your newborn purpose is nursed by angels, cherished by the
Tx:19.87  fear can enter and disturb the peace of sinlessness? What has been  given you, even in its infancy, is in full communication with God and
Tx:19.88  of meaning, judge it not. Remember the holy Presence of the One  given to you to be the Source of judgment. Give it to Him to judge
Tx:19.94  quiet recognition that you love Him. The exaltation of the body is  given up in favor of the Spirit, which you love as you could never
Tx:19.104  receive of you what you received of him.] Redemption has been  given you to give each other, and thus receive it. Whom you forgive
Tx:19.105  condemn him. And offer thanks to God that he is holy and has been  given the gift of holiness for you. Join him in gladness and remove
Tx:19.106  and mercy are yours to give. Into the hands that give the gift is  given. Look on your brother, and see in him the gift of God you would
Tx:19.108  which is the journey meaningless. Here is the peace of God,  given to you eternally by Him. Here is the rest and quiet that you
Tx:19.109  And he will recognize his choice by what he gives and what is  given him. Nor is it given anything in hell or Heaven to interfere
Tx:19.109  his choice by what he gives and what is given him. Nor is it  given anything in hell or Heaven to interfere with his decision.
Tx:19.110  together, still without conviction they have a purpose. Yet it is  given you to see this purpose in your holy Friend and recognize it is
Tx:20.3  with the sign of victory the promise of the resurrection already  given him. Let him not wander into the temptation of crucifixion and
Tx:20.4  between the snow white petals of the lilies you have received and  given as your gift, you will behold each other's face and recognize
Tx:20.6 Gifts are not made through bodies if they be truly  given and received. For bodies can neither offer nor accept; hold out
Tx:20.10  gift of lilies while you see them not. Nor can you use what I have  given unless you share it. The Holy Spirit's vision is no idle gift,
Tx:20.11 You have the vision now to look past all illusions. It has been  given you to see no thorns, no strangers, and no obstacles to peace.
Tx:20.11  God looks unto you for his release. For you have asked for and been  given the strength to look upon this final obstacle and see no thorns
Tx:20.24  The world you look on is the answer that it gave you, and you have  given it power to adjust the world to make its answer true. You
Tx:20.26  my friends, my brothers, and my Self. Your gift unto each other has  given me the certainty our union will be soon.
Tx:20.28  lose. It is not up to you to give power at all. Power is of God,  given by Him and reawakened by the Holy Spirit, Who knows that as you
Tx:20.28  are, the Holy Spirit merely gives everything to God, Who has already  given and received all that is true. The untrue He has neither
Tx:20.28  received all that is true. The untrue He has neither received nor  given.
Tx:20.29  of the laws of God in minds that have established other laws and  given them power to enforce what God created not.
Tx:20.30  you see in him, you see your own. For this you share. What God has  given follows His laws and His alone. Nor is it possible for those
Tx:20.31  Their power is of God, and they will give it only to what God has  given to share with them. Nothing but this can touch them, for they
Tx:20.32  him. To each who walks this earth in seeming solitude is a savior  given, whose special function here is to release him and so to free
Tx:20.33  need you be concerned with anything except the part that has been  given you to learn. For He Who knows the rest will see to it without
Tx:20.34 This is the purpose  given you. Think not that your forgiveness of each other serves but
Tx:20.36  except the only purpose that you would fulfill. As that was  given you, so will its fulfillment be. God's guarantee will hold
Tx:20.38  And in that single heart beat is the unity of love proclaimed and  given welcome. Peace to your holy relationship, which has the power
Tx:20.38  everyone, and in your gift is everyone made glad. Forget not Who has  given you the gifts you give, and through your not forgetting this
Tx:20.39  will never see it, but wait in patience for its coming. It will be  given you to see your brother's worth when all you want for him is
Tx:20.42  here the limitless forgiveness you will give each other already  given; the face of Christ you yet will look upon already seen.
Tx:20.55  prisoner in a tiny spot of space and time, beholden unto death and  given but an instant in which to sigh and grieve and die in honor of
Tx:20.56 Here it is  given him to choose to spend this instant paying tribute to the body
Tx:20.56  to spend this instant paying tribute to the body or let himself be  given freedom from it. Here he can accept the holy instant, offered
Tx:20.57  of God remains with you. Yet what is that to those who have been  given one true relationship beyond the body? Can they be long held
Tx:20.66  free of condemnation. And what he sees he did not make, for it was  given him to see, as was the vision which made his seeing possible.
Tx:20.67  at first in glimpses, but they will be enough to show you what is  given you who see your brother sinless. Truth is restored to you
Tx:20.68  of joy? Your holy relationship offers all this to you. As it was  given you, so will be its effects. And as its holy purpose was not
Tx:20.68  and think not that you need make either means or end. All this is  given you who would but see your brother sinless. All this is given,
Tx:20.68  is given you who would but see your brother sinless. All this is  given, waiting on your desire but to receive it. Vision is freely
Tx:20.68  is given, waiting on your desire but to receive it. Vision is freely  given to those who ask to see.
Tx:20.69 Your brother's sinlessness is  given you in shining light, to look on with the Holy Spirit's vision
Tx:20.70  your purpose now, and the vision that makes it yours is ready to be  given. You have the vision which enables each one to see the body
Tx:21.14  release from pain, and the complete escape from sin, all to be  given you. Say only this, but mean it with no reservations, for here
Tx:21.17  and even this He gave to you to give yourself. For by this gift is  given you the power to release your savior that he may give salvation
Tx:21.18  Give it away, and everything you see goes with it. Never was so much  given for so little. In the holy instant is this exchange effected
Tx:21.18  do not want brought to the one you do. And here the one you do is  given you because you want it. Yet for this, the power of your
Tx:21.19  circular the reasoning on which your “seeing” rests. This was not  given you. This was your gift to you and to your brother. Be willing,
Tx:21.19  with truth. And as you look upon the change in him, it will be  given you to see it in yourself.
Tx:21.33  is not a lack of faith, but faith in nothing. Faith  given to illusions does not lack power, for by it does the Son of God
Tx:21.36  to place its power elsewhere should another point of view be  given them. The miracles which follow this decision are also born of
Tx:21.36  are also born of faith. For all who choose to look away from sin are  given vision and are led to holiness.
Tx:21.37  Him, you will hate Him because you are afraid. The gift that He has  given you is more than anything that stands this side of Heaven. The
Tx:21.38 Your faith in sacrifice has  given it great power in your sight, except you do not realize you
Tx:21.40  perception and belief and faith from mind to body. Let them now be  given back to what produced them and can use them still to save
Tx:21.47  relationship on earth. And earth can hold no longer what has been  given Heaven as its own.
Tx:21.53  exist. And if it exists for you and has your freedom as the purpose  given it, you must be free to find it.
Tx:21.65  and seeks not to frighten you. The power to heal the Son of God is  given you because he must be one with you. You are responsible
Tx:21.65  responsible for how he sees himself. And reason tells you it is  given you to change his whole mind, which is one with you, in just an
Tx:21.65  is his whole salvation seen as complete with yours. Reason is  given you to understand that this is so. For reason, kind as is the
Tx:21.67  Reason speaks happily indeed of this. This gracious plan was  given love by Love. And what Love plans is like Itself in this: being
Tx:21.67  have you learn what you must be. And being one with It, it must be  given you to give what It has given and gives still. Spend but an
Tx:21.67  be. And being one with It, it must be given you to give what It has  given and gives still. Spend but an instant in the glad acceptance of
Tx:21.67  gives still. Spend but an instant in the glad acceptance of what is  given you to give your brother, and learn with him what has been
Tx:21.67  is given you to give your brother, and learn with him what has been  given both of you. To give is no more blessed than to receive. But
Tx:21.80  enemy in which you are not helpless, the means to see it will be  given you.
Tx:21.84  except through constant vision. And constant vision can be  given only those who wish for constancy. The power of the Son of
Tx:21.88  by one whom God Himself will never fail to answer. God has already  given him all that he really wants. Yet what he is uncertain of,
Tx:21.90  is the holy instant but God's appeal to you to recognize what He has  given you? Here is the great appeal to reason; the awareness of what
Tx:21.90  here the final question is already answered and what you ask for  given. Here is the future now, for time is powerless because of
Tx:22.9 Your sight was  given you, along with everything that you can understand. You will
Tx:22.11  not nurtured by the “something else” you thought was you. He was not  given there, nor was received by anything except yourself. For no two
Tx:22.12 Think what is  given you, my holy brothers. This child will teach you what you do
Tx:22.20  like its source. Therefore, says reason, if escape from guilt was  given to the Holy Spirit as His purpose, and by One to Whom nothing
Tx:22.26  recognize him for what he is if God would have it so. What God has  given to your holy relationship is there. For what He gave the Holy
Tx:22.26  to you, He gave. Would you not look upon the savior that has been  given you? And would you not exchange in gratitude the function of an
Tx:22.26  gave him for the one he has in truth? Receive of him what God has  given him for you, not what you tried to give yourself.
Tx:22.28  with Christ is share His vision. Quickly and gladly is His vision  given to anyone who is but willing to see his brother sinless. And no
Tx:22.31  peace and brings you to a state of mind in which salvation can be  given you. Sin is a block, set like a heavy gate, locked and without
Tx:22.42  So shall you walk the world with me, whose message has not yet been  given to everyone. For you are here to let it be received. God's
Tx:22.42  have accepted it is it received. Into your joined hands is it safely  given, for you who share it have become its willing guardians and
Tx:22.43 To all who share the love of God, the grace is  given to be the givers of what they have received. And so they learn
Tx:22.44  could find it difficult. For by receiving it, he learned it was not  given him alone. Such is the function of a holy relationship—to
Tx:22.54  not at all. Nothing entrusted to it can be misused, and nothing  given it but will be used. This holy relationship has the power to
Tx:22.55  of Heaven in its place. How blessed are you who let this gift be  given! Each part of Heaven that you bring is given you. And every
Tx:22.55  who let this gift be given! Each part of Heaven that you bring is  given you. And every empty place in Heaven that you fill again with
Tx:22.59  limit it in any way. He will join to it all the power that God has  given Him to make each little gift of love a source of healing for
Tx:22.65  not attempt to keep a little of the ego with this gift. For it was  given you to be used and not obscured. What teaches you you cannot
Tx:23.6  light of Heaven in it. So will you come to understand all that is  given you. In kind forgiveness will the world sparkle and shine and
Tx:23.16  You dwell in peace as limitless as its Creator, and everything is  given those who would remember Him. Over His home the Holy Spirit
Tx:23.42  make the gift you give. An empty box, however beautiful and gently  given, still contains nothing. And neither the receiver nor the giver
Tx:23.53  You have no reference-point from where to look, where meaning can be  given what you see. For only bodies could attack and murder, and if
Tx:23.54 Think what is  given those who share their Father's purpose and who know that it is
Tx:24.1  this course is the attainment and the keeping of the state of peace.  Given this state the mind is quiet, and the condition in which God is
Tx:24.3  one alternative that you can choose for love. Your choosing it has  given it all the reality it seems to have.
Tx:24.4  decisions have been made and kept hidden to become beliefs, now  given power to direct all subsequent decisions. Mistake you not the
Tx:24.8  Father created him like you. There is no difference. You have been  given to each other that love might be extended, not cut off from one
Tx:24.18 You who have chained your savior to your specialness and  given it his place, remember this: He has not lost the power to
Tx:24.18  sins you think you placed between him and the function of salvation  given him for you. Nor will you change his function, any more than
Tx:24.21  for He would not keep one part of what He is unto Himself, not  given to His Son but kept for Him alone. And it is this you fear, for
Tx:24.22  it be that you have lost because he is complete? What has been  given him makes you complete, as it does him. God's love gave you
Tx:24.23  treachery upon the gift of love. Whatever serves its purpose must be  given to kill. No gift that bears its seal but offers treachery to
Tx:24.27  idol that seems to give you power has taken it away. For you have  given your brother's birthright to it, leaving him alone and
Tx:24.37  keep the gift your Father asks from Him and give it there instead?  Given to Him, the universe is yours. Offered to them, no gifts
Tx:24.37  is yours. Offered to them, no gifts can be returned. What you have  given specialness has left you bankrupt and your treasure house
Tx:24.39  you appointed to be your savior and crucified the one whom God has  given you instead. So are you bound with him, for you are one. And
Tx:24.44  they serve a different purpose, the strength their purpose holds is  given them. And what they see and hear and hold and lead is given
Tx:24.44  holds is given them. And what they see and hear and hold and lead is  given light that you may lead as you were led.
Tx:24.52  and will not escape its laws of violence and death. Yet it is  given you to be beyond its laws in all respects, in every way,
Tx:24.56  nor you who see him truly. His mistakes can cause delay, which it is  given you to take from him that both may end a journey that has never
Tx:24.57  risen from the past. He who condemned himself, and you as well, is  given you to save from condemnation along with you. And both shall
Tx:24.58  Think, then, how great the love of God for you must be that He has  given you a part of Him to save from pain and give you happiness. And
Tx:24.60  forth, and all the power of Heaven and the might of truth itself is  given to provide the means and guarantee the goal's accomplishment.
Tx:24.63  your seeing it in him, returns to you. All of the tribute you have  given specialness belongs to him and thus returns to you. All of the
Tx:24.64  for if it were, you would be lost indeed. Be thankful, rather, it is  given you to see his holiness because it is the truth. And what is
Tx:24.67  what this condition means. Not till you go past learning to the  Given; not till you make again a holy home for your creations is it
Tx:24.72  goal. It is not bound to specialness but by your choice. And it is  given you to make a different choice and use perception for a
Tx:25.8  too. Not that it is in truth, but that the link that has been  given you to join the truth may reach to you through what you
Tx:25.17  when you choose to see it in its place. The frame that God has  given it but serves His purpose, not yours apart from His. It is your
Tx:25.18  it safe that you might look on it and see the holiness that He has  given it.
Tx:25.19  frame in which your holiness is set, and what God gave him must be  given you. However much he overlooks the masterpiece in him and sees
Tx:25.21  for the wholly pure have never sinned. Give then what He has  given you that you may see His Son as one and thank his Father as He
Tx:25.21  his Father as He thanks you. Nor believe that all His praise is  given not to you. For what you give is His, and giving it you learn
Tx:25.22  him honor that you may esteem yourself and him. To each of you is  given the power of salvation that escape from darkness into light be
Tx:25.22  as one what never has been separate nor apart from all God's love as  given equally.
Tx:25.28  but his choice. And when he chooses to avail himself of what is  given him, then will he see each situation that he thought before was
Tx:25.28  nothing except a chance for you to see the workings of the Helper  given you to see the world He made, instead of yours.
Tx:25.36 In you is all of Heaven. Every leaf that falls is  given life in you. Each bird that ever sang will sing again in you.
Tx:25.39  beneath the ego's senseless shrieks, such is the call that God has  given him that you might hear in him His Call to you and answer by
Tx:25.42  you perceive him. But forget not this—the role you give to him is  given you, and you will walk the way you pointed out to him
Tx:25.47  to one perceived as other than himself, he learns the gift was  given to himself, and so they must be one. Forgiveness is the only
Tx:25.49  Think not you lack a special value here. You wanted it, and it is  given you. All that you made can serve salvation easily and well. The
Tx:25.49  and will remain in time and in eternity alike. This is the function  given each of you for one another. Take it gently then from one
Tx:25.49  fulfilled in both of you. Do this one thing, that everything be  given you.
Tx:25.57  of everyone who chose insanity as his salvation. To this One is  given the choice of form most suitable to him; one which will not
Tx:25.73  come to plead for him and not against his life? No justice would be  given him by you. Yet God ensured that justice would be done unto
Tx:25.75  How little need you give the Holy Spirit that simple justice may be  given you!

Tx:25.79  and preserved [for you] in Heaven, where all of the treasures  given to God's Son are kept for him and offered anyone who but holds
Tx:25.79  in willingness they be received. Nor is the treasure less as it is  given out. Each gift [received] but adds to the supply. For God is
Tx:25.84  he has sought to be. If miracles, the Holy Spirit's gift, were  given specially to an elect and special group and kept apart from
Tx:25.87  accomplish when it is offered to everyone alike. It is received and  given equally. It is awareness that giving and receiving are the
Tx:26.4  Nor can his song of union and of love be heard at all. Yet is it  given him to make the world recede before his song and sight of him
Tx:26.6  you will hear no song of liberation for yourself nor see what it is  given him to witness to that you may see it and rejoice with him.
Tx:26.7 Yet every instant can you be reborn and  given life again. His holiness gives life to you, who cannot die
Tx:26.8  of life or death. For neither did he make, and only one was  given him by One Who knows His gifts can never suffer sacrifice and
Tx:26.15  entirely. Consider once again your special function. One is  given you to see in him his perfect sinlessness. And you will ask no
Tx:26.17  and undefiled. And all you need to do is but to wish that Heaven be  given you instead of hell, and every bolt and barrier that seems to
Tx:26.45  God's Son, nor one with which he could remain content. Yet God has  given him a better Friend in Whom all power in earth and Heaven
Tx:26.46  gifts that are not of this world, and only He to whom they have been  given can make sure that you receive them. He will place them on your
Tx:26.49  knowledge is not true of anything that is apart from it. Yet has God  given answer to the world of sickness which applies to all its
Tx:26.51  to truth than are the rest. But it is possible that some are  given greater value and less willingly offered to truth for healing
Tx:26.64  and hate is answered in the name of love. To you to whom it has been  given to save the Son of God from crucifixion and from hell and
Tx:26.65 To use the power God has  given you as He would have it used is natural. It is not arrogant to
Tx:26.70  the interval between the time in which forgiveness is withheld and  given seem dangerous, with terror justified.
Tx:26.72  laid within the future, where you cannot plan. No purpose has been  given it as yet, and what will happen has as yet no cause. Who can
Tx:26.74  clearly hints at punishment until the time of liberation is at hand.  Given a change of purpose for the good, there is no reason for an
Tx:26.80  passes to nothingness when They have come. What hatred claimed is  given up to love, and freedom lights up every living thing and lifts
Tx:26.81  What has been locked is opened; what was held apart from light is  given up, that light may shine on it, and leave no space nor distance
Tx:26.86  For otherwise, how could some be evaluated as unfair? Some then are  given meaning and perceived as sensible. And only some are seen as
Tx:26.89  your whole relationship. And this you seek to add unto the purpose  given it. The Holy Spirit's purpose is to let the Presence of your
Tx:27.10  is for. Now is it not condemned, but waiting for a purpose to be  given that it may fulfill the function that it will receive.
Tx:27.12  leaves no space in which a different view, another purpose, can be  given it. You do not know its purpose. You but gave illusions of
Tx:27.17  proved to him. A miracle can offer nothing less to him than it has  given unto you. So does your healing show your mind is healed and has
Tx:27.18  your blood is on his hands, and so he stands condemned. Yet it is  given you to show him by your healing that his guilt is but the
Tx:27.19  his heart made heavy with the proof of sin. And what you wish is  given you to see.
Tx:27.24  you would do must separate, because that is the function  given it by you. When you perceive correction is the same as
Tx:27.27 Correction is the function  given both, but neither one alone. And when it is fulfilled as
Tx:27.27  made aware of any function other than Its own. And thus is healing  given both of you.
Tx:27.28  conceives a single function as Its only one. Here is the function  given It conceived to be Its own and not apart from that Its Giver
Tx:27.34 The picture of your brother  given you to occupy the space so lately left unoccupied and vacant
Tx:27.37  your state of mind solution is impossible. Therefore, God must have  given you a way of reaching to another state of mind in which the
Tx:27.41  is it possible to separate your wishes from the answer, so it can be  given you and also be received. The answer is provided everywhere.
Tx:27.48  to the world. And being blessed, you will bring blessing. Life is  given you to give the dying world. And suffering eyes no longer will
Tx:27.53  to you to whom is healing offered. And you will learn that peace is  given you when you accept the healing for yourself. Its total value

Tx:27.70  or war, your dreams or your reality? Yet if the choice is really  given you, then you must see the causes of the things you choose
Tx:28.3  truth. All things the Holy Spirit can employ for healing have been  given Him, without the content and the purposes for which they have
Tx:28.5  it go. Memory holds the message it receives and does what it is  given it to do. It does not write the message nor appoint what it is
Tx:28.12 He to Whom time is  given offers thanks for every quiet instant given Him. For in that
Tx:28.12 He to Whom time is given offers thanks for every quiet instant  given Him. For in that instant is His memory allowed to offer all its

Tx:28.16  gives fatherhood to his Creator and receives the gift that he has  given Him. It is because he is God's Son that he must also be a
Tx:28.17  all healing is. Where then is healing? Only where its cause is  given its effects. For sickness is a meaningless attempt to give
Tx:28.18  It has but one effect. And in that recognition, causelessness is  given no effects and none are seen. A mind within a body and a world
Tx:28.23  His body is their slave which they abuse because the motives he has  given it have they adopted as their own. And hate it for the
Tx:28.46  when he has received the simple happiness of health? What God has  given cannot be a loss, and what is not of Him has no effects. What
Tx:28.63  that it not be sick. All miracles are based upon this choice and  given you the instant it is made. No forms of sickness are immune
Tx:29.15  thing be part of him, and nothing else have life. What you have  given “life” is not alive and symbolizes but your wish to be alive
Tx:29.23  forth the gentle way of kindness to God's Son. Whom you forgive is  given power to forgive you your illusions. By your gift of freedom is
Tx:29.23  power to forgive you your illusions. By your gift of freedom is it  given unto you. Make way for love, which you did not create, but
Tx:29.28  dreams you think you like are those in which the functions you have  given have been filled, the needs which you ascribe to you are met.
Tx:29.30  function, Who can utilize all dreams as means to serve the function  given Him. Because He loves the dreamer not the dream, each dream
Tx:29.34  gift in whom his Father shines forever and to whom is all creation  given as his own. Because he has it is it given you, and where it
Tx:29.34  to whom is all creation given as his own. Because he has it is it  given you, and where it lies in him, behold your peace. The quiet
Tx:29.36 A dream is  given you in which he is your savior, not your enemy in hate. A dream
Tx:29.36  you in which he is your savior, not your enemy in hate. A dream is  given you in which you have forgiven him for all his dreams of death
Tx:29.43  abides and seek no longer elsewhere. You will fail. But it is  given you to know the truth and not to seek for it outside yourself.
Tx:29.47  which in its lifelessness is really death, conceived as real and  given living form. Yet each must fail and crumble and decay because a
Tx:29.48  yourself. Let us forget the purpose of the world the past has  given it. For otherwise, the future will be like the past and but a
Tx:29.49  your dreams, for they are what you wish, perceived as if it had been  given you. Your idols do what you would have them do and have the
Tx:29.54  the Christ and what you see. An idol is a wish made tangible and  given form and thus perceived as real and seen outside the mind. Yet
Tx:29.57  of idols has been set by the idea this power and place and time are  given form and shape the world where the impossible has happened.
Tx:29.57  of time. Here does the changeless change, the peace of God, forever  given to all living things, give way to chaos, and the Son of God, as
Tx:29.60 God has not many sons, but only One. Who can have more, and who be  given less? In Heaven would the Son of God but laugh if idols could
Tx:30.8 If I make no decision by myself, This is the day that will be  given me.
Tx:30.10  if you feel yourself unwilling to sit by and ask to have the answer  given you. This means you have decided by yourself and cannot see
Tx:30.37  Him Who gave your will to you. For it is by your will the world is  given freedom. Nor can you be free apart from Him Whose holy will you
Tx:30.62  away. Yet God need not create His Son again that what is his be  given back to him. The gap between your brother and yourself was
Tx:30.70  from fear begins and will be made complete. Here is the real world  given in exchange for dreams of terror. For it is on this forgiveness
Tx:30.81  in him. It is not difficult to overlook mistakes that have been  given no effects. But what you see as having power to make an idol of
Tx:30.81  wrong about His Son? Or have you been deceived in him who has been  given you to heal, for your salvation and deliverance?
Tx:30.84  meaning. But it must accord one meaning to them all. If they are  given different meanings, it must be that they reflect but different
Tx:30.85  means whereby perception can be stabilized and one interpretation  given to the world and all experiences here. In this shared purpose
Tx:30.85  You do not have to judge, for you have learned one meaning has been  given everything, and you are glad to see it everywhere. It cannot
Tx:30.88  to all our brothers and to understand with them forgiveness has been  given to us all, and thus we can communicate again.
Tx:30.91  And Heaven gives no answer to the prayer, nor can a miracle be  given you to heal appearances you do not like. You have established
Tx:30.91  you do not like. You have established limits. What you ask is  given you, but not of God Who knows no limits. You have limited
Tx:30.92  have when you desire healing. But there is no miracle that can be  given you unless you want it. Choose what you would heal, and He Who
Tx:30.92  what you would heal, and He Who gives all miracles has not been  given freedom to bestow His gifts upon God's Son. When he is tempted,
Tx:30.93  offer them to you to see in happy form, devoid of fear. It will be  given you to look upon your brother thus. But not while you would
Tx:31.16  Unless he serves it, he has not fulfilled the function that was  given him by you. And thus he merits death because he has no purpose
Tx:31.25  by your side? This is the road to nowhere, for the light cannot be  given while you walk alone, and so you cannot see which way you go.
Tx:31.29  preferred the body change in its appearances to suit the purpose  given by the mind. For it can learn, and there is all change made.
Tx:31.31  be glad that you will see what you believe, and that it has been  given you to change what you believe. The body will but follow. It
Tx:31.33  think within the narrow band from birth to death a little time is  given you to use for you alone, a time when everyone conflicts with
Tx:31.34  escaped. Be not deceived by all the different names its roads are  given. They have but one end. And each is but the means to gain that
Tx:31.40  you will gain as much as he will lose, and what you lose is what is  given him. How utterly opposed to truth is this, when the lesson's
Tx:31.40  what your brother loses you have lost and what he gains is what is  given you.
Tx:31.49  not natural. Apart from learning, they do not exist. They are not  given, and they must be made. Not one of them is true, and many come

Tx:31.70  For you will not interpret what you see without the Aid that God has  given you. And in His sight there is another world.
Tx:31.71  Born as a gift for someone not perceived to be yourself, it has been  given you. For your forgiveness, offered unto him, has been

Tx:31.74  of fear. And what you see is hell, for fear is hell. All that is  given you is for release—the sight, the vision, and the inner Guide
Tx:31.77  would be one who is but partly saved. The holy ones whom God has  given each of you to save are everyone you meet or look upon, not
Tx:31.77  will yet meet, the unremembered and the not yet born. For God has  given you His Son to save from every concept that he ever held.
Tx:31.80  asks, “What is the meaning of what I behold?” Then is the answer  given. And the door held open for the face of Christ to shine upon
Tx:31.82 Let not the world's light,  given unto you, be hidden from the world. It needs the light, for
Tx:31.86  Simply by never using weakness to direct your actions, you have  given it no power. And the light of Christ in you is given charge of
Tx:31.86  you have given it no power. And the light of Christ in you is  given charge of everything you do. For you have brought your weakness
Tx:31.86  you do. For you have brought your weakness unto Him, and He has  given you His strength instead.
Tx:31.93  in the world uncertain, lonely, and in constant fear. For it is  given you to join with him, and through the Christ in you unveil his
W1:7.3 It is the reason why you have  given everything you see all the meaning that it has for you.
W1:12.1  or a violent world, or an insane world. All these attributes are  given it by you. The world is meaningless in itself.
W1:15.1  This is how your “seeing” was made. This is the function you have  given your body's eyes. It is not seeing. It is image-making. It
W1:18.1  It also emphasizes the idea that minds are joined, which will be  given increasing stress later.
W1:20.3  the resurrection and the life. His Will is done because all power is  given him in Heaven and on earth. In your determination to see is
W1:20.3  him in Heaven and on earth. In your determination to see is vision  given you.
W1:25.1  goals become unified. It is in recognizing this that what you see is  given meaning.
W1:42.2 God is indeed your strength. And what He gives is truly  given. This means that you can receive it any time and anywhere,
W1:R1.6 You will note that for review purposes the ideas are not always  given in quite their original form of statement. Use them as they are
W1:R1.6  in quite their original form of statement. Use them as they are  given here. It is not necessary to return to the original statements
W1:51.3 [2] I have  given what I see all the meaning it has for me. I have judged
W1:52.2  which I made up. The illusions are upsetting because I have  given them reality and thus regard reality as an illusion. Nothing in
W1:53.4  out no safety and no hope. But such a world is not real. I have  given it the illusion of reality, and have suffered from my belief in
W1:55.5  to the world of illusions. I am willing to follow the Guide God has  given me to find out what my own best interests are, recognizing that
W1:55.6  Therefore I do not recognize its real purpose. The purpose I have  given the world has led to a frightening picture of it. Let me open
W1:55.6  me open my mind to its real purpose by withdrawing the one I have  given it, and learning the truth about it.
W1:56.3  of myself go. As it is replaced by truth, vision will surely be  given me. And with this vision, I will look upon the world and upon
W1:59.3  to exchange my pitiful illusion of seeing for the vision that is  given by God. Christ's vision is His gift, and He has given it to me.
W1:59.3  vision that is given by God. Christ's vision is His gift, and He has  given it to me. Let me call upon this gift today, so that this day
W1:59.4  to see through the body's eyes. Yet the vision of Christ has been  given me to replace them. It is through this vision that I choose to
W1:59.5  tried to define what seeing is, and I have been wrong. Now it is  given me to understand that God is the Light in which I see. Let me
W1:60.5  God's Voice is the only voice and the only guide that has been  given to His Son.
W1:60.6  Son is sinless. And as I look upon the world with the vision He has  given me, I remember that I am His Son.
W1:61.3  of your right to be saved and an acknowledgment of the power that is  given you to save others.
W1:64.3  your function here is to be the light of the world, a function  given you by God. It is only the arrogance of the ego that leads you
W1:64.4  temptation. The Son of God is you. Only by fulfilling the function  given you by God will you be happy. That is because your function is
W1:66.6 God gives me only happiness. He has  given my function to me. Therefore my function must be happiness.
W1:66.9 The second premise is that God has  given you your function. We have seen that there are only two parts
W1:66.15 My happiness and function are one because God has  given me both.
W1:69.8  not recognize His answer yet, but you can indeed be sure that it is  given you, and you will yet receive it. Try, as you attempt to go
W1:75.3  we will accept the new world as what we want to see. We will be  given what we desire. We will to see the light; the light has come.
W1:75.4  real world rises before us in gladness, to be seen at last. Sight is  given us, now that the light has come.
W1:76.10  Who says there is no loss under the laws of God. Payment is neither  given nor received. Exchange cannot be made, there are no
W1:77.4  Remind yourself also that miracles are never taken from one and  given to another and that in asking for your rights you are upholding
W1:77.5  of the world and for your own. You have requested that you be  given the means by which this is accomplished. You cannot fail to be
W1:78.8  way and see our savior shining in the light of true forgiveness  given unto us. We ask Him in the holy Name of God and of His Son, as
W1:78.12  think of or remember from the past, allow the role of savior to be  given that you may share it with them. For you both, and all the
W1:79.2  solved if he thinks the problem is something else? Even if he is  given the answer, he cannot see its relevance.
W1:79.8  what our problems are. We are trying to recognize that we have been  given the answer by recognizing the problem so that the problem and
W1:80.1  solution. Salvation is accomplished. Freedom from conflict has been  given you. Accept that fact, and you are ready to take your rightful
W1:80.5 Now let the peace that your acceptance brings be  given you. Close your eyes and receive your reward. Recognize that
W1:81.2 [61] I am the light of the world. How holy am I, who have been  given the function of lighting up the world! Let me be still before
W1:89.2  me to have that I may use it on behalf of the function He has  given me.
W1:90.7  for this to be resolved. The answer to this problem is already  given me if I will accept it. Time cannot separate this problem
W1:92.5  Strength comes from truth and shines with light its Source has  given it; weakness reflects the darkness of its maker. It is sick and
W1:92.10  Self. Its strength will be the light in which the gift of sight is  given you. Leave, then, the dark a little while today, and we will
W1:93.10  the rest of the practice period in trying to experience what God has  given you in place of what you have decreed for yourself.
W1:95.12  this is true. Begin the practice periods today with this assurance,  given to your mind with all the certainty that you can give:
W1:95.18  within you and His love forever yours. You are One Self, and it is  given you to feel this Self within you and to cast all your illusions
W1:96.17  you lay another treasure in your growing store. And all of it is  given everyone who asks for it and will accept the gift. Think, then,
W1:96.17  who asks for it and will accept the gift. Think, then, how much is  given unto you to give this day, that it be given you!
W1:96.17  Think, then, how much is given unto you to give this day, that it be  given you!
W1:98.2  surety has come. We have a mighty purpose to fulfill and have been  given everything we need with which to reach the goal. Not one
W1:98.3  reality. They rest in quiet certainty that they will do what it is  given them to do. They do not doubt their own ability because they
W1:98.5  your time each hour to be able to accept the happiness that God has  given you? Is it not worth five minutes hourly to recognize your
W1:99.7 Salvation is your function with the One to Whom the plan was  given. Now are you entrusted with this plan, along with Him. He has
W1:100.2  part that He has saved for you to take in working out His plan is  given you that you might be restored to what He wills. This part is
W1:103.6  you expect to take the place of pain. God being Love, it will be  given you. Bolster this expectation frequently throughout the day,
W1:104.4 Our longer practice periods today, the hourly five minutes  given truth for your salvation, should begin with this:
W1:104.6  that which is truly ours, as we ask to recognize what God has  given us.
W1:104.7  peace and joy are welcome and to which we come to find what has been  given us by Him. We come in confidence today, aware that what belongs
W1:105.2 The truly  given gift entails no loss. It is impossible that one can gain
W1:105.2  another loses. This implies a limit and an insufficiency. No gift is  given thus. Such “gifts” are but a bid for a more valuable return—a
W1:105.4  of looking at a gift. God's gifts will never lessen when they are  given away. They but increase thereby. As Heaven's peace and joy
W1:105.9  Now are you ready to accept the gift of peace and joy which God has  given you. Now are you ready to experience the joy and peace you have
W1:105.9  Now you can say, “God's peace and joy are mine,” for you have  given what you would receive.
W1:106.6  speak today. Be ready for salvation. It is here and will today be  given unto you. And you will learn your function from the One Who
W1:106.7  start and thus it ends; when everything is yours, and everything is  given away, it will remain with you forever. And the lesson has been
W1:106.11  will again release a thousand more who pause to ask that truth be  given them along with you.
W1:106.12  your choice to hear and to receive the Word by this reminder,  given to yourself as often as is possible today:
W1:108.7  returns to us. Light is tranquility, and in that peace is vision  given us and we can see.
W1:R3.4  with goals you hold more dear. When you withdraw the value  given them, allow your practice periods to be replacements for your
W1:R3.6  faith and let the mind employ the thoughts you gave as they were  given you for it to use.
W1:R3.7 You have been  given them in perfect trust, in perfect confidence that you would use
W1:R3.9  them. As a result, you have gained little reinforcement and have not  given it the opportunity to prove how great are its potential gifts
W1:116.3  for me. I share my Father's Will for me, His Son. What He has  given me is all I want. What He has given me is all there is.
W1:116.3  for me, His Son. What He has given me is all I want. What He has  given me is all there is.
W1:121.8  and your learning will be not of you, but of the Teacher Who was  given you to show the way to you. Today we practice learning to
W1:122.4  the answer that will answer everything? Here is the perfect answer,  given to imperfect questions, meaningless requests, half-hearted
W1:122.7  give no gifts of any value to a mind which has received what God has  given as its own. God wills salvation be received today and that the
W1:122.11  and what your acceptance of the answer brings. Today it will be  given you to feel the peace forgiveness offers and the joy the
W1:122.12  offers everything you want. Today all things you want are  given you.
W1:123.6  them back a thousand and a hundred thousand more than they were  given. He will bless your gifts by sharing them with you, and so they
W1:123.7  and Whom He thanks as you are thanking Him. This holy half an hour  given Him will be returned to you in terms of years for every second,
W1:125.2  God's plan is simply this: the Son of God is free to save himself,  given the Word of God to be his Guide, forever in his mind and at his
W1:126.7 Not having  given Him the gift He asks of you, you cannot recognize His gifts and
W1:126.7  He asks of you, you cannot recognize His gifts and think He has not  given them to you. Yet would He ask you for a gift unless it was for
W1:126.7  for giving is receiving. What remains as unreceived has not been  given, but what has been given must have been received.
W1:126.7  What remains as unreceived has not been given, but what has been  given must have been received.
W1:126.12 All that I give is  given to myself. The Help I need to learn that this is true is with
W1:128.2  other end but this. For everything must serve the purpose you have  given it until you see a different purpose there. The only purpose
W1:128.5 Today we practice letting go all thought of values we have  given to the world. We leave it free of purposes we gave its aspects
W1:129.6  really want, but what you choose instead you want indeed! Let it be  given you today. It waits but for your choosing it to take the place
W1:129.10  your mind can see it plainly and can understand. A day of grace is  given you today, and we give thanks. This day we realize that what
W1:131.9  established him in Heaven? Could he lose what the Eternal Will has  given him to be his home forever? Let us not try longer to impose an
W1:134.18  a deep and certain feeling of relief. The time remaining should be  given to experiencing the escape from all the heavy chains you sought
W1:135.14  this will function flawlessly and with the strength that has been  given it and cannot fail.
W1:135.22  what was planned for us. We will be sure that everything we need is  given us for our accomplishment of this today. We make no plans for
W1:135.23  instead of plan, that we may give instead of organize. And we are  given truly, as we say:
W1:136.5  beyond your own control. But what you have forgot can be remembered,  given willingness to reconsider the decision which is doubly shielded
W1:136.14  that time is an illusion. For it lets you think what God has  given you is not the truth right now, as it must be. The thoughts of
W1:137.11  the instant they are healed and all the grace of healing it is  given them to give. What is opposed to God does not exist. And who
W1:140.14  a minute as the hour strikes to hear the answer to our prayer be  given us as we attend in silence and in joy. This is the day when
W1:R4.10  its intended purpose. Let each word shine with the meaning God has  given it as it was given to you through His Voice. Let each idea that
W1:R4.10  Let each word shine with the meaning God has given it as it was  given to you through His Voice. Let each idea that you review that
W1:143.2 [126] All that I give is  given to myself.
W1:154.7  the messages by giving them away. They choose no roles that are not  given them by His authority. And so they gain by every message which
W1:154.12  and yet belief is lacking still. But this is sure—until belief is  given it, you will receive a thousand miracles and then receive a
W1:155.9  truth and let illusions be your guide. Your holy brothers have been  given you to follow in your footsteps as you walk with certainty of
W1:155.13  who are God's Son. Forget not He has placed His hand in yours and  given you your brothers in His trust that you are worthy of His trust
W1:157.3 Today it will be  given you to feel a touch of Heaven, though you will return to paths
W1:157.4  joined your will with His this day, what you are asking must be  given you. Nothing is needed but today's idea to light your mind and
W1:157.8  life, Translator of perception into truth, the holy Guide to Heaven  given you has dreamed for you this journey which you make and start
W1:158.1 What has been  given you? The knowledge that you are a mind, in Mind and purely
W1:158.1  have you left your Source, remaining as you were created. This was  given you as knowledge which you cannot lose. It was given as well to
W1:158.1  This was given you as knowledge which you cannot lose. It was  given as well to every living thing, for by that knowledge only does
W1:159.2  that you are whole. There is no miracle you cannot give, for all are  given you. Receive them now by opening the storehouse of your mind
W1:159.4  anyone, and in His sight the sinless are as one. Their holiness was  given by His Father and Himself.
W1:159.10  for you to give. Are you not worth the gift when God appointed it be  given you? Judge not God's Son, but follow in the way He has
W1:160.7  unable now to recognize this stranger in your midst, for you have  given him your rightful place. Yet is your Self as certain of Its own
W1:163.8  must therefore be illusion. This the stand we take today. And it is  given us to look past death and see the life beyond.
W1:164.6 Brothers, this day is sacred to the world. Your vision,  given you from far beyond all things within the world, looks back on
W1:164.7 We will not judge today. We will receive but what is  given us from judgment made beyond the world. Our practicing today
W1:164.8  the light in which our Savior looks on us and offer it the freedom  given us through His forgiving vision, now our own. Open the curtain
W1:165.4  your mind will be before it comes to you. Ask to receive, and it is  given you. Conviction lies within it. Till you welcome it as yours,
W1:165.6  is all doubting past, the journey's end made certain, and salvation  given you. Now is Christ's power in your mind to heal as you were
W1:166.1 All things are  given you. God's trust in you is limitless. He knows His Son. He
W1:166.5  unknown to him. He cannot lose them. But he will not look at what is  given him. He wanders on, aware of the futility he sees about him
W1:166.10  which He gave an Answer. That is all. And you who have this Answer  given you have need no more of anything but this.
W1:166.12  to hide from God. He has reminded you of all the gifts that God has  given you. He speaks as well of what becomes your will when you
W1:167.5  far beyond themselves. But they cannot give birth to what was never  given them. As they are made, so will their making be. As they were
W1:168.5 It is a new and holy day today, for we receive what has been  given us. Our faith lies in the Giver, not our own acceptance. We
W1:168.7 Your grace is  given me. I claim it now. Father, I come to You. And You will come to
W1:169.6  when total recognition that its will is God's has been completely  given and received completely. It returns the mind into the endless
W1:169.13  what grace can give. For this we can give in the grace that has been  given us.
W1:169.14  what we ask this day of Him Who gives the grace we ask as it was  given Him?
W1:170.13  forever. You have chosen Him in place of idols, and your attributes,  given by your Creator, are restored to you at last. The Call of God
W1:R5.3  us to unify our practicing, as we review the thoughts that You have  given us.
W1:R5.10  you from Him Who sees your bitter need and knows the answer God has  given Him. Together we review these thoughts. Together we devote our
W1:179.3 [168] Your grace is  given me. I claim it now. God is but Love, and therefore so am I.
W1:183.11 Turn to the Name of God for your release, and it is  given you. No prayer but this is necessary, for it holds them all
W1:183.12  we would experience this peace today. And in His Name it shall be  given us.
W1:184.2  things, between all things and you. Thus do you think that you have  given life in separation. By this split you think you are established
W1:184.3  as you wished to have perception be. The nameless things were  given names and thus reality was given them as well. For what is
W1:184.3  be. The nameless things were given names and thus reality was  given them as well. For what is named is given meaning and will then
W1:184.3  names and thus reality was given them as well. For what is named is  given meaning and will then be seen as meaningful, a cause of true
W1:184.4  way reality is made by partial vision, purposefully set against the  given truth. Its enemy is wholeness. It conceives of little things
W1:184.10  the darkness. Here you understand the Word, the Name Which God has  given you; the One Identity Which all things share; the one
W1:184.12  our practicing, our purpose is to let our minds accept what He has  given as the answer to the pitiful inheritance you made as fitting
W1:184.14  God's Son, we understand that they have but One Name, Which He has  given them. It is this Name we use in practicing. And through Its
W1:184.14  all foolish separations disappear which kept us blind. And we are  given strength to see beyond them. Now our sight is blessed with
W1:185.1  you in any form, in any place or time. Heaven would be completely  given back to full awareness, memory of God entirely restored, the
W1:185.2  make a hell and think it real. He wants the peace of God, and it is  given him. For that is all he wants, and that is all he will receive.
W1:185.6  And when the wish for peace is genuine, the means for finding it are  given in a form each mind which seeks for it in honesty can
W1:185.7  This is no idle wish. These words do not request another dream be  given us. They do not ask for compromise nor try to make another
W1:185.10  for it, and where to turn for help in the attempt. Help has been  given you. And would you not avail yourself of it by sharing it?
W1:185.12 For you it was created,  given you by its Creator and established as His own eternal gift. How
W1:185.14  this beside us, can we fail today as we request the peace of God be  given us?
W1:186.1  humility which holds no function as your own but that which has been  given you. It offers your acceptance of a part assigned to you,
W1:186.2  function. We did not establish it. It is not our idea. The means are  given us by which it will be perfectly accomplished. All that we are
W1:186.2  not deny with self-deceiving arrogance that we are worthy. What is  given us to do we have the strength to do. Our minds are suited
W1:186.8 And so we find our peace. We will accept the function God has  given us, for all illusions rest upon the weird belief that we can
W1:186.10  leave your mind unclouded and serene when you accept the function  given you. The images you make give rise to but conflicting goals,
W1:186.11  as the sun's return each morning to dispel the night, your truly  given function stands out clear and wholly unambiguous. There is no
W1:186.12  you. Hear instead a certain Voice Which tells you of a function  given you by your Creator, Who remembers you and urges that you now
W1:186.13  although He sees them not. For Love must give, and what is  given in His Name takes on the form most useful in a world of form.
W1:186.14  which as it is in Heaven has no form. Yet what is needed here is  given here as it is needed. In this form, you can fulfill your
W1:187.1  phase on which the world and true perception differ. Having had and  given, then the world asserts that you have lost what you possessed.
W1:187.3  everyone you look upon. Herein is the idea of giving clarified and  given meaning. Now you can perceive that by your giving is your store
W1:187.8  arisen and correction must be made. Your blessing will correct it.  Given first to you, it now is yours to give as well. No form of
W1:187.9  gift forever there, forever to increase, forever yours, forever  given away.
W1:188.3  hearts and lights all vision as it passes by. All of its gifts are  given everyone, and everyone unites in giving thanks to you who give
W1:188.4  as well. From you salvation radiates with gifts beyond all measure,  given and returned. To you, the giver of the gift, does God Himself
W1:189.5 What would you see? The choice is  given you. But learn and do not let your mind forget this law of
W1:190.10 This is the day when it is  given you to realize the lesson which contains all of salvation's
W1:191.11  born but to die, to weep, and suffer pain, hear this: all power is  given you in earth and Heaven. There is nothing that you cannot do.
W1:192.7  We are one and therefore give up nothing. But we have indeed been  given everything by God. Yet do we need forgiveness to perceive that
W1:193.3  He knows no sin is possible. And yet He let His holy law of Love be  given form in which it could be offered to the world. And He created
W1:193.10  words which give you power over all events which seem to have been  given power over you. You see them rightly when you hold these words
W1:194.3  faithfully. In no one instant can one even die. And so each instant  given unto God in passing, with the next one given Him already, is a
W1:194.3  And so each instant given unto God in passing, with the next one  given Him already, is a time of your release from sadness, pain and
W1:195.9  of gratitude in place of anger, malice, and revenge. We have been  given everything. If we refuse to recognize it, we are not entitled
W1:197.4  gifts seem lost and ineffectual. They are received where they are  given. In your gratitude are they accepted universally and thankfully
W1:197.5 God blesses every gift you give to Him and every gift is  given Him because it can be given only to yourself, and what belongs
W1:197.5  gift you give to Him and every gift is given Him because it can be  given only to yourself, and what belongs to God must be His own. Yet
W1:197.6 Withdraw the gifts you give, and you will think that what is  given you has been withdrawn. But learn to let forgiveness take away
W1:197.9  the countless channels which extend this Self. All that you do is  given unto Him. All that you think can only be His thoughts, sharing
W1:197.9  you have denied yourself when you forgot the function God has  given you. But never think that He has ever ceased to offer thanks to
W1:198.15  not forsake us now. For He would give to us the gift that God has  given us through Him today. Now is it time for your deliverance. The
W1:199.2  asked. Attack thoughts cannot enter such a mind because it has been  given to the Source of Love. And fear can never enter in a mind that
W1:199.9 I am not a body. I am free. I hear the Voice that God has  given me, and it is only this my mind obeys.
W1:200.4  world is not where you belong. You are a stranger here. But it is  given you to find the means whereby the world no longer seems to be a
W1:200.5 Freedom is  given you where you beheld but chains and iron doors. For you must
W1:R6.6  all that we thought we knew and understood. For thus is freedom  given us from all we did not know and failed to understand.
W1:R6.7  what it would have. Then gently let the thought which you denied be  given up in sure and quick exchange for the idea we practice for the
W1:R6.11  review we now begin, and let us also not forget to Whom it has been  given as we practice day by day, advancing toward the goal He set for
W1:202.1  to stay an instant more where I do not belong, when God Himself has  given me His Voice to call me home? I am not a body. I am free. For
W1:212.1  from all the vain illusions of the world. Only the function God has  given me can offer freedom. Only this I seek, and only this will I
W1:216.1  myself. If I attack, I suffer. But if I forgive, salvation will be  given me. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God created
W2:I.3  in the remaining holy instants which conclude the year that we have  given God. We say some simple words of welcome and expect our Father
W2:I.6  us how to leave the world of sorrow in exchange for its replacement  given us by You. We look not backward now. We look ahead and fix our
W2:I.11  reviewed each day, each one of them to be continued till the next is  given you. They should be slowly read and thought about a little
W2:WF.5  success. He has forgiven you already, for such is His function  given Him by God. Now must you share His function and forgive whom He
W2:224.1  well I give the world. There is no gift but this that can be either  given or received. This is reality, and only this. This is illusion's
W2:225.1  love for me. For giving and receiving are the same, and You have  given all Your love to me. I must return it, for I want it mine in
W2:230.1 In peace I was created. And in peace do I remain. It is not  given me to change my Self. How merciful is God my Father, that when
W2:230.2 Father, I seek the peace You gave as mine in my creation. What was  given then must be here now, for my creation was apart from time and
W2:WS.1  thoughts that have been born in time will end as well. God's Word is  given every mind which thinks that it has separate thoughts and will
W2:WS.2 The thought of peace was  given to God's Son the instant that his mind had thought of war.
W2:WS.2  of war. There was no need for such a thought before, for peace was  given without opposite and merely was. But when the mind is split,
W2:WS.4  in which there is no sorrow, for it holds a hint of all the glory  given us by God. The grass is pushing through the soil, the trees are
W2:231.2  Him is Heaven. This we seek. And only this is what it will be  given us to find.
W2:234.2  received, for Your eternal patience, and the Word which You have  given us that we are saved.
W2:236.1  tell me what to think and what to do and feel. And yet it has been  given me to serve whatever purpose I perceive in it. My mind can only
W2:WIW.3  have been born instead. And now they go to find what has been  given them to seek. Their aim is to fulfill the purpose which the
W2:WIW.4  redirected. Sounds become the call of God. And all perception can be  given a new purpose by the One Whom God appointed Savior to the
W2:245.2  Word, Whose Love we recognize because we share the Word that He has  given unto us.
W2:WIB.3  can never fear. Made to be fearful, must the body serve the purpose  given it. But we can change the purpose which the body will obey by
W2:266.2  each of us, united in the holy Love of God. How many saviors God has  given us! How can we lose the way to Him, when He has filled the
W2:266.2  to Him, when He has filled the world with those who point to Him and  given us the sight to look on them?
W2:267.1  Now my mind is healed, and all I need to save the world is  given me. Each heartbeat brings me peace; each breath infuses me with
W2:269.1  to become the way to show me my mistakes and look beyond them. It is  given me to find a new perception through the Guide You gave to me
W2:WIC.3  has reality in truth. The rest is dreams. Yet will these dreams be  given unto Christ to fade before His glory and reveal your holy Self,
W2:272.1  memory can satisfy Your Son? I will accept no less than You have  given me. I am surrounded by Your Love, forever still, forever
W2:273.1  mine,” and nothing can intrude upon the peace that God Himself has  given to His Son.
W2:274.2  this day to Him and there will be no fear today because the day is  given unto Love.
W2:275.2  to think, what words to give the world. The safety that I bring is  given me. Father, Your Voice protects all things through me.
W2:276.1  in this His Son was born. Let us accept His Fatherhood, and all is  given us. Deny we were created in His Love, and we deny our Self, to
W2:276.2  mine. And it is this that I would speak to all my brothers, who are  given me to cherish as my own, as I am loved and blessed and saved by
W2:WIHS.1  dreams, perception leads to knowledge through the grace that God has  given Him, to be His gift to everyone who turns to Him for truth.
W2:284.2 Father, what You have  given cannot hurt, and grief and pain must be impossible. Let me not
W2:286.1  conflict been resolved. In You is everything I hope to find already  given me. Your peace is mine. My heart is quiet and my mind at rest.
W2:288.1  You. My brother is my savior. Let me not attack the savior You have  given me. But let me honor him who bears Your Name and so remember
W2:290.2  You cannot fail to hear me, Father. What I ask have You already  given me, and I am sure that I will see my happiness today.
W2:291.1  we look upon today! What holiness we see surrounding us! And it is  given us to recognize it is a holiness in which we share; it is the
W2:295.2 My Father, Christ has asked a gift of me, and one I give that it be  given me. Help me to use the eyes of Christ today and thus allow the
W2:WISC.3  up to God. The Second Coming is the time in which all minds are  given to the hands of Christ, to be returned to Spirit in the name of
W2:303.2  to save me from the evil self I made. He is the Self that You have  given me. He is but what I really am in truth. He is the Son You love
W2:304.2  thus receive salvation for the world. It is Your gift, my Father,  given me to offer to Your holy Son that he may find again the memory
W2:305.2 Father, the peace of Christ is  given us because it is Your will that we be saved. Help us today but
W2:316.1  and leave no shadow on the holy mind my Father loves. His grace is  given me in every gift a brother has received throughout all time and
W2:316.1  in where I am truly welcome and at home among the gifts that God has  given me.
W2:317.1  me to go, then will I recognize salvation is already here, already  given all my brothers and already mine as well.
W2:319.1  lose. And yet it is the Will of God I learn that what one gains is  given unto all.
W2:319.2  its totality. What aim but the salvation of the world could You have  given me? And what but this could be the will my Self has shared with
W2:320.1  strength and love in earth and Heaven. I am he to whom all this is  given. I am he in whom the power of my Father's Will abides.
W2:320.2  me. There is no limit on Your Will. And so all power has been  given to Your Son.
W2:WICR.2 God's thoughts are  given all the power that Their own Creator has. For He would add to
W2:332.2  the world again today. Fear holds it prisoner. And yet Your Love has  given us the means to set it free. Father, we would release it now.
W2:332.2  Father, we would release it now. For as we offer freedom, it is  given us. And we would not remain as prisoners while You hold out our
W2:333.1  as it is, where it is thought to be, in the reality which has been  given it, and with the purpose that the mind accorded it. For only
W2:334.1  This is my choice today. And so I go to find the treasures God has  given me.
W2:337.1  suffering. And only happiness can be my state, for only happiness is  given me. What must I do to know all this is mine? I must accept
W2:338.2  will have thoughts that will frighten me until I learn that You have  given me the only Thought which leads me to salvation. Mine alone
W2:WIM.2 A miracle contains the gift of grace, for it is  given and received as one. And thus it illustrates the law of truth
W2:342.1  plan to save me from the hell I made. It is not real. And You have  given me the means to prove its unreality to me. The key is in my
W2:343.1  for me as well as You. I too must give, and so all things are  given unto me forever and forever. As I was created, I remain. Your
W2:343.2  are free. Salvation has no cost. It is a gift that must be freely  given and received, and it is this that we would learn today.
W2:345.1  which can be recognized and seen to work. The miracles I give are  given back in just the form I need to help me with the problems I

W2:WAI.3  our joint forgiveness is redeemed. And this, our gift, is therefore  given us. We look on everyone as brothers and perceive all things as
W2:352.1  blind. Yet love, reflected in forgiveness here, reminds me You have  given me a way to find Your peace again. I am redeemed when I elect
W2:FL.2 His is the only way to find the peace that God has  given us. It is His way that everyone must travel in the end, because

W2:FL.4 It is our function to remember Him on earth, as it is  given us to be His own completion in reality. So let us not forget

A Course of Love (236)

C:I.11 “Everyone” is just a concept. These words are  given to each One. They are heard only by each “alone” by which I
C:P.24  to do, a spirit that does not believe in the answers it has been  given.
C:P.26  child is the same. A son or daughter does not earn the love that is  given him or her, and this too is seen as acceptable and even “right.”
C:2.4  love as everything. It is because of the attributes you have  given fear that love has been given attributes. Only separate things
C:2.4  is because of the attributes you have given fear that love has been  given attributes. Only separate things have attributes and qualities
C:2.8  insane. Yet you believe that to think the opposite is true insanity.  Given even your limited view of who you are, could this really be
C:2.21 Do not believe that all that you have learned will not do what it was  given you to do. Do not believe in your failure or the ego's success.
C:3.13 You have not  given up the idea that you are in control of what you learn, nor have
C:3.15  you goes far beyond the learning of this Course. One such concept,  given up and not replaced, will free you beyond your deepest
C:3.20  ember? What other pain would you hold closely, a grief not to be  given up? What other pain would you be so unwilling to sacrifice?
C:3.23  from you. We begin by simply accepting the proof we have been  given of love's strength. For this we will return to again and again
C:4.4  what your purpose here is all about, if not for your recognition,  given witness by your longing, of what you fear you are not, but
C:4.8  to proceed toward love or to withdraw from it, to believe it is  given or withheld.
C:4.10 There are no losers and no winners under God's law. Not one is  given more than another. God cannot love you more than your neighbor,
C:4.16  than love. You thus believe love is a choice, something to be  given to some and not to others. You hope to be a winner in this game
C:4.16  game you play, a chosen one who will have each ounce of love that is  given returned in kind. This is a balancing act you play with God's
C:4.17  there will be some fairness here in what you give and what you are  given back. You hope your hard work will produce results, the dinner
C:6.10  is what makes them desirable to you. A warmth not of this world,  given freely, with no work involved, causes you to shake your head.
C:6.13  life need this constant maintenance to retain the reality you have  given it. “Struggle to succeed and succeed to struggle yet another
C:7.15  someone wants the intelligence you have to offer, something must be  given in return. What you demand can range from admiration to money,
C:7.21  in the weather to unseen and unverifiable diseases. You have  given others, whom you see as having more authority than you, license
C:8.26  can think of at least one long remembered incident that when  given to the light of truth revealed a lie of outlandish proportions.
C:8.27  and yet the details mask the truth so thoroughly that all truth is  given over to illusion.
C:9.16 Fear, like all the rest of your emotions, comes in many guises and is  given many names, but there are really only two emotions: one is
C:9.41  be like you.” To these you look for a vicarious fulfillment, having  given up any hope for real fulfillment. Here you are entertained,
C:10.9  than your brother. You will stay until you realize that God has  given everything already to everyone.
C:11.1  that you do not really desire it. What you desire is what cannot be  given from anywhere but your own Source. Again you realize this
C:11.9  as all you have that God cannot take away from you, you have not yet  given up its protection. It does not matter to you that it is insane
C:11.9  It does not matter to you that it is insane to think that He who has  given you everything seeks to take anything away from you. While you
C:11.9  blame Him for others. Yes, perhaps this God you think you know has  given you everything, but He can also take it all away, and in the
C:11.15  is it that you are asked to give? It can come in many manners and be  given many forms. It can be called a willingness to change your mind,
C:14.19  in their design, and dress it up to look like sacrifice and gifts  given, but all with the same purpose in mind. What none realize is
C:14.21  yet the greatest fear of all is that of loss of love. You who have  given everything to be alone and separate fear most of all that which
C:14.21  to be alone and separate fear most of all that which you have  given everything to attain. For what is loss of love but confirmation
C:16.7 Judgment is the function the separated mind has  given itself. This is where all of its energy is expended, for
C:16.21  make those in authority powerful. While you want those you have  given power to protect you, you also fear them, and they in turn fear
C:16.21  who is not is not determined by might or any authority that can be  given and taken away. Power is possessed by those who claim it. By
C:16.24  You give away your power and then bow down to those whom you have  given it to, for you are afraid of nothing more than your own power.
C:17.9 Receiving implies that something is being  given. Receiving implies a willingness to accept what is given. This
C:17.9  is being given. Receiving implies a willingness to accept what is  given. This willingness is what you do not offer. Yet this is due to
C:17.14  Love's gifts are gifts of creation or extension, gifts you have both  given and received. Each act of love is added to the space in the
C:17.17  it has allowed me to address the different functions you have  given them.
C:18.6  then you can begin to see it as what it is, a learning device  given you by a loving creator. Before the idea of separation, there
C:20.3  mother, nameless and beyond naming. No “I” resides here. You have  given up the vision of your eyes and the “I” of your ego. You are

C:20.35  hope to have moments of clarity concerning what you are doing in a  given moment, what you have done, what you hope to do in the future.
C:20.40  and the rain falls on the good and evil alike. All gifts of God are  given equally and distributed equally. It is your belief that this is
C:20.40  are received when all gifts are judged. While the gift is still  given, the judgment changes the nature of the gift by limiting its
C:20.41 What you each have been  given is that which will serve your purpose. You could have no more
C:20.45  are welcome to all the gifts of the universe and that they can be  given, through you, to others as well. It implies willingness rather
C:22.9  as one of assigning meaning to that which intersects with you in a  given way that you deem as purposeful. Yet it is in the passing
C:22.19  without the “I.” Yet this you must learn to do, and this task is  given you as an exercise.
C:23.18  you. The ability to imagine is such a capability, freely and equally  given to all. Imagination is linked to true vision, for it exercises
C:23.21 You then can move forward again, taking form beyond its  given parameters and becoming a miracle worker.
C:23.23  of unlearning you may feel tested. You are not being tested but  given opportunities for unlearning. To learn that a previously held
C:25.11  continues, all special relationships continue because they are  given validity. The holy relationship of unity depends on the release
C:26.3  in the life of the tragic hero, excluding those who are posthumously  given such a title, the tragedy is most often considered a fall from
C:26.11  surely do it? Have you not long wished to know your purpose? To be  given a goal that would fulfill the longing in you? Have you not
C:28.11  of an impending challenge to action, of some necessary form to be  given to what you carry within.
C:29.1  for focus and readiness and a request for service that can only be  given in the present by a mind and heart available to the
C:29.17  relationship, as the nature of relationship is joy. Once you have  given up your belief in separation this will be known to you.
C:29.25  to understand the reciprocal nature of giftedness? That what God has  given only needs to be received? That what you have received only
C:29.25  needs to be received? That what you have received only needs to be  given? The indivisibleness of God is simply this: an unbroken chain
C:29.26  the future and the past is but a worry about the return of gifts  given. What gift of opportunity did you not accept in the past, might
C:30.2  your Self, for some purpose other than your Self. Thus was service  given another route for being separated from the Self and your
C:30.9  to have traveled far from words of love, words promised and words  given in truth. For no love is finite in nature. Love has no
C:30.13  made in God's own image, as was all creation. You are God's image  given form, as is all creation. We, all of us together, are the
C:31.5  fear of oneness, and it is an unfounded fear, though understandable  given your concept of what is the same and what is different. Yet, as
C:31.11  and lower thoughts, you have aggrandized all your thoughts and  given them an identity we have called the ego. Without dislodging
C:32.3 Thus we end this Course with love  given and love received in truth. You are the learner here until you
T1:2.3  but here is where it lies. It is yours to give and can only be  given to love from love. Only in giving is it received.
T1:2.7  in this training of the ego-mind worldly rewards have long been  given. These people attain degrees and skills and then further apply
T1:2.15 The second part is its reception. A gift has been  given. What is your response?
T1:2.19  the call for a response, and the nature of all gifts as being  given to all.
T1:4.6  the call for a response, and the nature of all gifts as being  given to all. This is thus a call to realize that you exist in
T1:4.6  that your relationship calls for a response, and that you are  given to all as all are given to you.
T1:4.6  calls for a response, and that you are given to all as all are  given to you.
T1:4.13  implies needs that would not be met without you. Response is  given and thus genuine. It is a natural act of giving and receiving
T1:4.16  pure appreciation and love. It is always available. It is the gift  given in everything you look upon and see without the obstacle of the
T1:4.19  who have thought that your interpretation of events and feelings has  given them their meaning—think again. Their meaning exists already
T1:7.2  on the other hand there is light. One or the other must exist at a  given time, but never both. Thus the absence of good health is
T1:8.5  my resurrection rather than upon my birth. This will seem confusing  given your definition of incarnation as the Word made flesh. You took
T1:9.9 As I awaited my death I was  given the gift of knowing what would come to be through my
T1:10.2 My peace is yours. You have asked for it and it has been  given to you. To not have it, you will have to choose not to have it.
T1:10.3  and how often have you been fully engaged in it? How often have you  given yourself over to those highs and lows? You will be tempted to
T1:10.15  is here. You who have found peace—live in peace. You have been  given the Peace of God—go in Peace. Spread peace throughout the
T2:1.9  may have once identified as hoping to develop into abilities, are  given a structure and form in your thinking of them. A desire to
T2:2.7  of following such a call, seek for proof they have already been  given. The call itself is proof. It is proof of the heart's ability
T2:3.4  the truth that it is the Christ in you that learns may have been  given little attention as you began your learning, it cannot now be
T2:4.8  obligation. One set of thoughts recognizes that something has been  given. The other set recognizes that something has been asked. The
T2:5.1  demands. All call you to the present where response is able to be  given. All call you “back” to who you are.
T2:6.6 Accomplishment is not an end point but a  given. It is not an outcome but a certainty. It says I am rather than
T2:7.10 Here is an idea not heretofore  given much attention, the idea of the desire for change. Certainly
T2:11.4  your perception of your body as your identity and your home has  given way to an idea of it as a form that can be of service to you
T2:11.4  there is no service the ego can do you. The ego is the one untruth,  given many names and many faces and the only thing given by you the
T2:11.4  the one untruth, given many names and many faces and the only thing  given by you the power to do battle with the truth, or with God.
T2:11.14  forever and foremost in your mind. Here, that relationship has been  given a name, as we have given your relationship with your separate
T2:11.14  your mind. Here, that relationship has been given a name, as we have  given your relationship with your separate identity the name of ego.
T2:13.5  between us now. The light of heaven shines not down upon you but is  given and received in equal exchange by all who in creation exist
T3:1.6 You who have spent most of your life representing the ego have but  given a face to illusion and made it seem real. When I say that you
T3:2.11  not been a reason for you to do so? Realize that a reason has been  given here and that this reason, while perfectly believable, is not
T3:5.6  much in evidence, was how mighty could God's love be if it were  given to a people who suffered. The answer was that God's love was so
T3:5.7  of sacrifice but one of gift giving. The greatest gift of all was  given, the gift of redemption. The gift of redemption was the gift of
T3:5.7  one true Self, the one true son of God. The gift of redemption was  given once and for all. It is the gift of restoration to original
T3:6.1  you do is based upon desire for reward. This is your desire to be  given to in return for what you give. This stems from your idea of
T3:6.3  to comparison as well, as lack of reward in one instance and reward  given in another, is the cause of much of the bitterness that exists
T3:6.4  the process of learning that your Self is not vengeful. The ego has  given you many reasons to be distrustful of your Self, beginning with
T3:8.6  the history, both ancient and recent, that you think you would have  given anything to change? Do you look upon the ill and blame them for
T3:9.3  you will find yourself gently corrected and when this correction is  given you will not doubt it but will remember that it is the truth
T3:10.1  Now we must talk about forgetting. While nothing need be  given up to enter the House of Truth, or to encounter the truth, you
T3:10.3  others and your inclination to place blame upon yourself must be  given up as well. When it is said that you are the cause it is not
T3:10.9  The thoughts of the ego-mind will come as disguises to certainty.  Given just a little practice, these disguises will be easily seen
T3:20.6  are surely seen as being worse than others—encouragement is  given despite the “fact” that it is unwarranted. Yet even while you
T3:20.7  or able to cause effect. You can't imagine not feeling “bad”  given such circumstances. You cannot imagine not offering sympathy.
T3:20.17  and have no willingness to offer. Just know these aren't the ones  given you to bring to love and trust that none will remain forever
T3:21.15  you feel you have chosen to be within that world. Whether you have  given thought to the interconnection of these ideas you hold about
T3:22.8 Plans will only interfere with your response to what you are  given to observe. The act of observation that you are able to do with
T4:1.7 An elementary example might be useful. In many countries, all are  given the opportunity to go to school. This might be as easily stated
T4:1.21  can be learned from this state of consciousness and that you have  given your willingness to learn in a new way. The new way is here. If
T4:2.11  there will be a second and a third. That attention and respect is  given to those who first achieve anything of merit is but a way of
T4:5.3  one body through Christ-consciousness. The one body is one energy  given many expressions in form. The same life-force courses through
T4:5.11  eyes were unable to see, the glory of your true nature. You are  given the chance, just as you are being given the chance now, to
T4:5.11  of your true nature. You are given the chance, just as you are being  given the chance now, to choose your true nature with your free will.
T4:5.12  the time of the intermediary and to begin to learn directly, you are  given the same opportunity that was formerly reserved for you only
T4:12.8  nature of this dialogue is that it exists in unity. It is  given and received in unity. Intermediary steps were needed only for
T4:12.36  to embrace the new. But also make no mistake that what is  given to us is everything. All the power of creation is released onto
D:1.17  of the separated self's return to unity. These lessons have been  given. They can be reviewed and reviewed again. They can be used as
D:3.7  now through surrender, an active and total acceptance of what is  given.
D:3.15  form, are a continual representation of what is continuously being  given and received, what is continuously being shared. You are a
D:3.15  representation of the truth. You are a representation of all that is  given and received in truth. You are a representation of creation. A
D:3.23  create the new is available within you. The power of the universe is  given and received constantly in support of the creation of the new.
D:4.6  are the actual prison systems that developed when shape and form was  given to what you fear and what you believe will protect you.
D:4.16  seen as a system in and of itself. It is thought externalized and  given an identity you but falsely believed to be yourself. From this
D:4.18  we are left with is divine design. All we are left with is what was  given: A divine universe, a divine existence. That divine universe,
D:4.24  of giving and receiving as one. Let the authority of the new be  given and received. Become the author of your own life. Live it as
D:4.29 You accept that what has been  given is available. You accept and you receive. You realize that the
D:5.7  you do represent your drives, but they simply represent what was  given to help you remember and return to who you truly are.
D:5.10  have thought of as inconsequential in the light of truth. Everything  given represents the truth.
D:5.11  much misinterpretation and misrepresentation. Acceptance of what is  given is acceptance of what is given. All was given to you to remind
D:5.11  Acceptance of what is given is acceptance of what is  given. All was given to you to remind you of who you are in the time
D:5.11  Acceptance of what is given is acceptance of what is given. All was  given to you to remind you of who you are in the time of learning
D:5.11  are in the time of learning that is now passing away. Thus all was  given to you to represent what is rather than to be what is. Now, as
D:5.12 Love and the loving patterns  given in the time of learning are all that exist in all you see. But
D:6.4  as the false representation of the ego as the self, the body,  given your choice to return to who you truly are while still in form,
D:6.13  the “truth,” as you should bless them for the certainty they have  given you in an uncertain world. Even if it has been a false
D:6.18  will suffice. These modes of behavior concerning the body were  given to teach and to represent. What you have done is turn them into
D:6.20  all the systems you believe in, it is a system too, an internal idea  given a name, externalized, and blamed for all that you do not
D:6.22 Let us return now to the beginning and start with the body as a  given. It is what it is in terms of flesh and bone, and it is also
D:6.23  design of the joining provided through sexual intercourse—a design  given to lead the way to desire for oneness and completion.
D:6.26  the embodiment of love, the embodiment of divinity. Its existence is  given as it was always given. But now the very nature of its
D:6.26  the embodiment of divinity. Its existence is given as it was always  given. But now the very nature of its existence has changed. I say
D:8.2  to be the “best” despite your natural talent or ability, and have  given up “working hard” to be the best. Others who have achieved the
D:8.4  has always known this ability was a “given.” That you are gifted— given to—and able to receive. And despite what science might have
D:8.7  from which to start building your awareness of what is available or  given—of what is but awaiting your discovery and conscious
D:8.10  ability or talent you did not have to learn, to that which was  given and available just a step beyond where the separated self could
D:8.12  the place of wholeness. The natural ability that you recognize as a  given and unlearned aspect of your Self is the doorway. Step through
D:9.12  that exist apart from learning. Ideas “come to you.” They are  given and received. They are surprising and pleasing in nature. You
D:10.3  accomplished state of these givens that allows expression of what is  given to truly come through you and express the Self, because joyous
D:10.5  You are called to realize your relationship with what is  given from unity. It is in that relationship, the relationship
D:10.6  with personal or individual understanding or experience of what is  given is to not complete the cycle of giving and receiving as one.
D:10.6  is to not complete the cycle of giving and receiving as one. What is  given must be received. What is received must be given. This is the
D:10.6  as one. What is given must be received. What is received must be  given. This is the way of increase and multiplication. This is the
D:11.8  for if you can fully accept the way in which these words have been  given and received, you will see that you can fully accept the way of
D:11.13  of spirit, from the shared consciousness from which these words are  given and received.
D:12.16  or of something that has not yet occurred but that you are  given the certainty to know will occur. But once you have felt this
D:13.5  is whole. Therefore the knowing that will be coming to you will be  given in a state of wholeness. You have previously learned of
D:13.11  or union, in other words, precedes the sharing of what can only be  given and received in relationship.
D:14.4 Let me remind you again of your invulnerability and the cautions  given within this Course concerning testing this invulnerability. In
D:16.8  Love, like God, like Creation, is the giver of the givens. Life was  given through the extension and the expression of God, of Love, of
D:16.11  occur in unison or in union. Becoming is movement. Movement is  given and becomes movement in form. Being is given and becomes being
D:16.11  movement. Movement is given and becomes movement in form. Being is  given and becomes being in form. Expression is given and becomes
D:16.11  in form. Being is given and becomes being in form. Expression is  given and becomes expression in form. Since you were conceived in
D:Day1.9  space. This would be akin to non-acceptance of the way that has been  given to bring your desire to fruition. The spacecraft could be seen
D:Day3.9  life and thus a life of limits of which you are more accepting. But  given time to consider such an idea, you are likely to become more
D:Day3.40  had, that the knowing of unity is available to you. You may not have  given great consideration to the access through which that
D:Day3.57  active function? Acceptance is an active function. It is something  given you to do. You think it is difficult, but it is only difficult
D:Day4.3  are the only choices that have been known to you? Thus you must be  given the opportunity here to see what other choices might be before
D:Day4.6 The divine design of learning was a  given and a natural part of you, much like breathing. You have no
D:Day4.8  And yet this is the way learning was designed to be. Learning was  given as a natural means of access to all that was available to you,
D:Day4.8  Learning was designed, like the intake of breath, to be taken in and  given out. Inhaled and exhaled. Inhaled and expressed.
D:Day4.9 The ability to learn is  given to all in like measure. The conformity of learning, however, is
D:Day5.8 Thus, access too is the same. It exists. It is there for you. It is  given. It cannot be denied unless you deny it. It is only because you
D:Day5.11  and love and that difference would seem to be love's ability to be  given away.
D:Day5.12  unity is known through its effects. All the benefits of union can be  given away to any willing to receive.
D:Day5.17  desires are, and where your talents have been recognized, are as  given as the goal you now desire to realize. Again I remind you that
D:Day5.20  you and apply no effort to what you read here. Just accept what is  given. All that is being given is the helpful hints you have desired
D:Day5.20  to what you read here. Just accept what is given. All that is being  given is the helpful hints you have desired from an older brother who
D:Day5.22  as translated by the ego, was about turning everything that was  given into what “you” could only work hard to attain, and thereby
D:Day5.22  while it remains, you will not realize full access to what you are  given. We are speaking here of letting your form serve union and
D:Day6.27 As your belief grows in our ability to accomplish together our  given task, you are almost surely feeling this devotion extend to
D:Day7.2  is degenerating. Nothing about fear is life giving. You thus were  given life only to have it become degenerated by fear.
D:Day7.12  in a state of grace, meeting grace with grace by accepting what is  given for your regeneration.
D:Day7.18  concerned about now is the present. It is here, in this present and  given time on the mountain that you must realize that the conditions
D:Day9.25  to release the beauty of expression in all its forms. You have a  given form that is perfect for your expression of the beauty and
D:Day13.4  love of God. There is no other love. God's love is constantly being  given, received, and felt in relationship. God's love is your love.
D:Day14.6  to disclaim all that you have called your “own,” you are now  given the task of claiming your power as your own. All that is within
D:Day15.25  not exclude while also making choices about where your attention is  given. Just as you respect the boundaries of those who are still in
D:Day17.2  masculine, the “identity” of God, or in other words, the All of All  given an identity. God holds you within Himself. Christ is held
D:Day17.8  is superfluous, but only of the necessary in the sense that all the  given components are necessary for wholeness. Representation of the
D:Day18.5  for in their renewal they fully realize the necessity of what can be  given only through expression of what is within them. They realize
D:Day19.16  circles existing in support and harmony with one another. As those  given specific functions fulfill those functions, they move naturally
D:Day21.6  perhaps think in terms of receiving meaning that there is something  given from a source beyond the self, but this is the “thought” that
D:Day21.7  self where it is learned and then regurgitated or even applied, has  given way to an interaction that begins within and extends outward.
D:Day22.2  as simply an idea of expressing, but an idea of expression that is  given and received, received and given. When the word channeling has
D:Day22.2  but an idea of expression that is given and received, received and  given. When the word channeling has been used in reference to
D:Day23.1  dialogue is meant to give you the means to carry what you have been  given.
D:Day23.2  her child, this is how you are meant to carry what you have been  given. What you have been given is meant to accompany you, propel
D:Day23.2  you are meant to carry what you have been given. What you have been  given is meant to accompany you, propel you, and be supported by you.
D:Day23.2  be supported by you. You are not separate from what you have been  given, and you do carry what you have received within you.
D:Day23.3  today we speak of being a carrier. Your instruction has been  given. Now the task before us is to come to understanding of the
D:Day23.3  of the means by which you will carry what you have been  given down from the mountain and onto level ground, the ground of the
D:Day32.18  of holy relationship? Could not the instructions that you have been  given—such as those of access to unity, and becoming a spacious
D:Day33.7  as who you are. You have been told that these words are being  given to you so that you do not respond to love in the same way
D:Day36.5  the people you met. You started with what you believed you had been  given, the self that you saw yourself to be—the self you considered
D:Day36.7 When you start over, knowing that what you have been  given is everything, your creatorship of your experience is a totally

Tx:15.17  it is wholly without fear. It will come, being the lesson God  gives you through the Teacher He has appointed to translate time into
Tx:15.63  minds can communicate. If you would give yourself as your Father  gives His Self, you will learn to understand Selfhood. And therein is
Tx:15.82  separation from His Father, Who is His one relationship, in which He  gives as His Father gives to Him.
Tx:15.82  Father, Who is His one relationship, in which He gives as His Father  gives to Him.

Tx:18.38  for love. The preparation for the holy instant belongs to Him Who  gives it. Release yourselves to Him Whose function is release. Do not
Tx:18.64  the same. And every instant that you spend without awareness of it  gives you a different view of it when you return.

Tx:19.54 If you send forth only the messengers the Holy Spirit  gives you, wanting no messages but theirs, you will see fear no
Tx:19.68  back and so would limit your awareness of it. For what He  gives must be extended if you would have its limitless power and use
Tx:19.87  Will of God. Here is the babe of Bethlehem reborn. And everyone who  gives him shelter will follow him, not to the cross, but to the
Tx:19.101  you share it. And all the pity and forgiveness that would heal it  gives way to fear. Brothers, you need forgiveness of each other,
Tx:19.109  redeemed give joy because they have been healed of pain. Everyone  gives as he receives, but he must choose what it will be that he
Tx:19.109  be that he receives. And he will recognize his choice by what he  gives and what is given him. Nor is it given anything in hell or
Tx:19.110  the sure protection of his Father. Here is the only purpose that  gives this world and the long journey through this world whatever
Tx:20.28  by the Holy Spirit, Who knows that as you give, you gain. He  gives no power to sin, and therefore it has none; nor to its
Tx:20.28  things have not occurred because the Holy Spirit sees them not and  gives no power to their seeming source. Thus would He keep you free
Tx:20.28  them. Being without illusion of what you are, the Holy Spirit merely  gives everything to God, Who has already given and received all that
Tx:20.29  him as he is, and what is yours shines from him to you. Your savior  gives you only love, but what you would receive of him is up to
Tx:20.75  nothing are all projections made. For it is the projection which  gives the “nothing” all the meaning that it holds.
Tx:21.5  gentle lessons are acquired joyously and are remembered gladly. What  gives you happiness you want to learn and not forget. It is not
Tx:21.5  happy learners yet because you still remain uncertain that vision  gives you more than judgment does, and you have learned that both
Tx:21.12  can see, for that same song they sing in honor of their Creator  gives praise to them as well. The blindness which they made will not
Tx:21.13  to joy; the little gift you offer to the Holy Spirit for which He  gives you everything; the very little on which salvation rests; the
Tx:21.39 Think you the Holy Spirit is concerned with this? He  gives not what it is His purpose to lead you from. You think He
Tx:21.39  the other has disappeared from sight. Nor is it possible that what  gives light be one with what depends on darkness to be seen. Neither
Tx:21.67  one with It, it must be given you to give what It has given and  gives still. Spend but an instant in the glad acceptance of what is
Tx:21.68  The gratitude he offers you reminds you of the thanks your Father  gives you for completing Him. And here alone does reason tell you
Tx:22.18  eternal cannot change. But sorrow can be turned to joy, for time  gives way to the eternal. Only the timeless must remain unchanged,
Tx:23.43  of what you want—to take a little and give up the rest. Salvation  gives up nothing. It is complete for everyone. Let the idea of
Tx:24.15  are, how can you know the truth? What answer that the Holy Spirit  gives can reach you, when it is your specialness to which you listen
Tx:24.18  But be you certain that the truth is just the same in both. It  gives no different messages and has one meaning. And it is one you
Tx:24.46  in your own. Christ's hand holds all His brothers in Himself. He  gives them vision for their sightless eyes and sings to them of
Tx:24.70  want to be yourself. It is the means to make your wish come true. It  gives the eyes with which you look on it, the hands that feel it, and
Tx:25.1  cannot be apart from what is at the very center of your life. What  gives you life cannot be housed in death. No more can you. Christ is
Tx:25.6  is it faithful to your purpose from which it never separates nor  gives the slightest witness unto anything the purpose in your mind
Tx:25.13  For one thing is sure—the way you see, and long have seen,  gives no support to base your future hopes and no suggestions of
Tx:25.46 —His use of what you made, to heal instead of harm. To each He  gives a special function in salvation he alone can fill—a part for
Tx:25.52  And if but one Thought of His is true, then all beliefs the world  gives any meaning to are false and make no sense at all. This is
Tx:25.61  which salvation rests, the vantage point from which the Holy Spirit  gives meaning and direction to the plan in which your special
Tx:25.82  knows it, and as knowledge is reflected in the sight the Holy Spirit  gives.
Tx:26.5  illusion merely ask that they might see a purpose in the world that  gives it sense and makes it meaningful. Without your special function
Tx:26.7  every instant can you be reborn and given life again. His holiness  gives life to you, who cannot die because his sinlessness is known to
Tx:26.25  love could need forgiveness. And what is charity within the world  gives way to simple justice past the gate that opens into Heaven. No
Tx:26.51  to the truth? Illusions are illusions and are false. Your preference  gives them no reality. Not one is true in any way, and all must yield
Tx:26.53 Nothing  gives meaning where no meaning is. And truth needs no defense to
Tx:26.66  To get from one is to deprive them all. And yet to bless but one  gives blessing to them all as one.
Tx:27.23  innocent than he. This splits his function off from yours and  gives you both a different role. And so you cannot be perceived
Tx:27.76  Whom you see as offering both life and death to you. Brother, He  gives but life. Yet what you see as gifts your brother offers
Tx:27.76  gifts your brother offers represent the gifts you dream your Father  gives to you. Let all your brother's gifts be seen in light of
Tx:28.12  deprived of His effects. The instant's silence that His Son accepts  gives welcome to eternity and Him and lets Them enter where They
Tx:28.16  create their cause, but they establish its causation. Thus, the Son  gives fatherhood to his Creator and receives the gift that he has
Tx:28.22  that he was author of the dream, and not a figure in the dream. He  gives himself the consequences which he dreams he gave his brother.
Tx:29.4  The body saves you, for it gets away from total sacrifice and  gives you time in which to build again your separate selves, which
Tx:29.20  gives salvation? Thus he learns it must be his to give. Unless he  gives, he will not know he has, for giving is the proof of having.
Tx:29.29  is no betrayal but of this. The core of dreams the Holy Spirit  gives is never one of fear. The coverings may not appear to change,
Tx:29.32  upon the sacred Son of God within. Here is the role the Holy Spirit  gives to you who wait upon the Son of God and would behold him waken
Tx:29.36  it seem so hard to share this dream? Because unless the Holy Spirit  gives the dream its function, it was made for hate and will continue
Tx:29.65  wild? This does the child believe because he fears his thoughts and  gives them to the toys instead. And their reality becomes his own
Tx:30.32  they have understood the basic law that makes decision powerful and  gives it all effects that it will ever have. It needs but two. These
Tx:30.35  and through your will created everything. Not one created thing but  gives you thanks, for it is by your will that it was born. No light
Tx:30.41  fill a gap which is not there. It is not this you want. Creation  gives no separate person and no separate thing the power to complete
Tx:30.54  very simple thing—you do not want whatever you believe an idol  gives. For thus the Son of God declares that he is free of idols. And
Tx:30.72  they have sinned. And so they do not merit the forgiveness that it  gives.
Tx:30.74 Forgiveness recognized as merited will heal. It  gives the miracle its strength to overlook illusions. This is how you
Tx:30.87  symbols which are used mean different things? The Holy Spirit's goal  gives one interpretation, meaningful to you and to your brother. Thus
Tx:30.91  their unreality obscure and give to them reality instead. And Heaven  gives no answer to the prayer, nor can a miracle be given you to heal
Tx:30.92  given you unless you want it. Choose what you would heal, and He Who  gives all miracles has not been given freedom to bestow His gifts
Tx:31.15 What you would choose between is not a choice and  gives but the illusion it is free, for it will have one outcome
Tx:31.29  no thoughts. It has no power to learn, to pardon, nor enslave. It  gives no orders that the mind need serve nor sets conditions that it
Tx:31.49  born of fear. What is a concept but a thought to which its maker  gives a meaning of his own? Concepts maintain the world. But they

W1:27.1 Today's idea expresses something stronger than mere determination. It  gives vision priority among your desires. You may feel hesitant about
W1:42.1  it is the Will of God. It is His strength, not your own, that  gives you power. And it is His gift to you, rather than your own,
W1:42.2 God is indeed your strength. And what He  gives is truly given. This means that you can receive it any time and
W1:42.5 Vision must be possible. God  gives truly; or,
W1:47.1  such a way that only good can come of it? What is there in you that  gives you the recognition of the right solution and the guarantee
W1:65.2  of peace, which you have closed upon yourself, in your own hands. It  gives you the answer to all the searching you have done since time
W1:66.4  you and your happiness, but that they are actually identical. God  gives you only happiness. Therefore the function He gave you must be
W1:66.6 God  gives me only happiness. He has given my function to me. Therefore my
W1:66.8 The first premise is that God  gives you only happiness. This could be false, of course, but in
W1:66.8  what He does not have, and He cannot have what He is not. Unless God  gives you only happiness, He must be evil. And it is this definition
W1:92.2  It is as if you thought you held the match that lights the sun and  gives it all its warmth or that you had the universe imprisoned in
W1:92.6  a savior and can only will for happiness and peace for everyone. It  gives its strength to everyone who asks, in limitless supply. It sees
W1:92.6  It sees that lack in anyone would be a lack in all, and so it  gives its light that all may see and benefit as one. Its strength is
W1:97.12  you yield to the belief that you are something else. The Holy Spirit  gives you peace today. Receive His words, and offer them to Him.

W1:105.3  has set is to reverse your view of giving, so you can receive. For  giving has become a source of fear, and so you would avoid the only
W1:105.5 True  giving is creation. It extends the limitless to the unlimited,
W1:105.5  It adds by letting what cannot contain itself fulfill its aim of  giving everything it has away, securing it forever for itself.
W1:106.8 Today we practice  giving, not the way you understand it now, but as it is. Each hour's
W1:106.10  for which you came and which will free the world from thinking  giving is a way to lose. And so the world becomes ready to understand
W1:106.12  your receiving it to give away, so you can teach the world what  giving means by listening and learning it of Him. Do not forget today
W1:108.4 Here are both  giving and receiving seen as different aspects of one Thought Whose
W1:108.6 To learn that  giving and receiving are the same has special usefulness because it
W1:108.7 Today we practice with the special case of  giving and receiving. We will use this simple lesson in the obvious

W1:121.9 The unforgiving mind does not believe that  giving and receiving are the same. Yet we will try to learn today
W1:126.4  from you committed it. And if you then are gracious unto him by  giving him what he does not deserve, the gift is no more yours than
W1:126.7  means by which it is attained, must heal the mind that gives, for  giving is receiving. What remains as unreceived has not been given,
W1:129.1  else to hope for, you will only be depressed. Our emphasis is not on  giving up the world but on exchanging it for what is far more
W1:136.15  It is found at any time—today, if you will choose to practice  giving welcome to the truth. This is our aim today. And we will give
W1:137.13  for the peace of God. Is not a minute of the hour worth the  giving to receive a gift like this? Is not a little time a small
W1:152.14 Then will we wait in silence,  giving up all self-deceptions as we humbly ask our Self that He

W1:154.7 An earthly messenger fulfills his role by  giving all the messages away. The messengers of God perform their
W1:154.7  messages as for themselves and show they understand the messages by  giving them away. They choose no roles that are not given them by His
W1:154.8  receive and understand he has received until he gives. For in the  giving is his own acceptance of what he received.
W1:154.10  can speak to us and for us, joining in One Voice the getting and the  giving of God's Word, the giving and receiving of His Will.
W1:154.10  joining in One Voice the getting and the giving of God's Word, the  giving and receiving of His Will.

W1:162.4  and all His Love to be distributed to all the world, increased in  giving, kept complete because its sharing is unlimited. And thus you
W1:166.12  offer you, you now must learn to give. This is the lesson that His  giving holds, for He has saved you from the solitude you sought to
W1:166.15  the touch of Christ. Such is your mission now. For God entrusts the  giving of His gifts to all who have received them. He has shared His
W1:168.5  Whom all error is unknown is yet the One Who answers our mistakes by  giving us the means to lay them down and rise to Him in gratitude and
W1:183.11  become his own. He makes his claim to all his Father gave, is  giving still, and will forever give. He calls on Him to let all
W1:187.1 No one can give unless he has. In fact,  giving is proof of having. We have made this point before. What seems
W1:187.1  that you have lost what you possessed. The truth maintains that  giving will increase what you possess.
W1:187.2  Perhaps the form in which the thought seems to appear is changed in  giving. Yet it must return to him who gives. Nor can the form it
W1:187.3  miracles it brings to everyone you look upon. Herein is the idea of  giving clarified and given meaning. Now you can perceive that by your
W1:187.3  clarified and given meaning. Now you can perceive that by your  giving is your store increased.
W1:187.4 Protect all things you value by the act of  giving them away, and you are sure that you will never lose them.
W1:187.5  The thought remains and grows in strength as it is reinforced by  giving. Thoughts extend as they are shared, for they cannot be lost.
W1:187.6 Never forget you give but to yourself. Who understands what  giving means must laugh at the idea of sacrifice. Nor can he fail to
W1:188.3  by. All of its gifts are given everyone, and everyone unites in  giving thanks to you who give and you who have received.
W1:188.5  Who recognizes it within himself must give it. And the means for  giving it are in his understanding. He forgives because he recognized
W1:191.1  well is all the world released. You do not see what you have done by  giving to the world the role of jailer to the Son of God. What could
W1:193.3  in God. Thus He encompassed what He could not see nor understand by  giving of His Love and making Answer to a question which, though

D:3.12  receiving is an idea, as are all ideas, that exists apart from form.  Giving and receiving are thus one within the shared consciousness of

D:3.12  are. The elevation of the personal self, however, requires that this  giving and receiving as one be shared in form. Yet the elevated form,
D:3.12  of the Self, is not separate from the shared consciousness. Thus  giving and receiving as one is now the nature of the elevated Self of
D:3.14  Giving and receiving as one has become one in form as well as one in
D:3.14  as one in idea. What this means, simply stated once again, is that  giving and receiving occur in unison, or in union. There is no “time”

D:3.21  now is that your separated self already learned this concept of  giving and receiving, and that for the elevated Self of form it is

D:3.23  new. This is what creation is! The entire universe, the All of All,  giving and receiving as one. This is our power. And our power is

D:6.17  of “if this, then that” ruled, and the “new” as a world in which  giving and receiving are one, you will begin to see the enormity of
D:10.6  or experience of what is given is to not complete the cycle of  giving and receiving as one. What is given must be received. What is
D:11.4  I said that you give and you receive from the well of spirit. True  giving and receiving is of unity. True giving and receiving is not of

Tx:17.45  relationship. For once the unholy relationship has accepted the  goal of holiness, it can never again be what it was.
Tx:17.46  has not as yet been changed sufficiently to make its former  goal completely without attraction, and its structure is “threatened”
Tx:17.46  for meeting its new purpose. The conflict between the  goal and the structure of the relationship is so apparent that they
Tx:17.46  relationship is so apparent that they cannot coexist. Yet now the  goal will not be changed. Set firmly in the unholy relationship,
Tx:17.46  there is no course except to change the relationship to fit the  goal. Until this happy solution is seen and accepted as the only
Tx:17.47 It would not be kinder to shift the  goal more slowly, for the contrast would be obscured and the ego
Tx:17.47  for their unholy purposes suddenly has holiness for its  goal. As these two contemplate their relationship from the point of
Tx:17.48 This is the time for faith. You let this  goal be set for you. That was an act of faith. Do not abandon faith,
Tx:17.48  faith in each other in what but seems to be a trying time. The  goal is set. And your relationship has sanity as its purpose. For
Tx:17.48  in an insane relationship, recognized as such in the light of its  goal.
Tx:17.49 —substitute for this another relationship to which your former  goal was quite appropriate. You can escape from your distress only by
Tx:17.51  than you now believe. Is it not certain that you will remember a  goal unchanged throughout eternity? For you have chosen but the goal
Tx:17.51  a goal unchanged throughout eternity? For you have chosen but the  goal of God from which your true intent was never absent.
Tx:17.55 You stand together in the holy presence of truth itself. Here is the  goal, together with you. Think you not the goal itself will gladly
Tx:17.55  itself. Here is the goal, together with you. Think you not the  goal itself will gladly arrange the means for its accomplishment? It
Tx:17.56 Yet the  goal is fixed, firm, and unalterable, and the means will surely fall
Tx:17.56  unalterable, and the means will surely fall in place because the  goal is sure. And you will share the gladness of the Sonship that it
Tx:17.57  is apparent that it must be clear. The setting of the Holy Spirit's  goal is general. Now He will work with you to make it specific [for
Tx:17.58  I want to come of this? What is it for?” The clarification of the  goal belongs at the beginning, for it is this which will determine
Tx:17.58  aware of what it does not want, but only that. It has no positive  goal at all.
Tx:17.59 Without a clear cut positive  goal, set at the outset, the situation just seems to happen and makes
Tx:17.59  judgment in the past, but you have no idea what should happen. No  goal was set with which to bring the means in line. And now the only
Tx:17.60  of truth and falsity. The true becomes what can be used to meet the  goal. The false becomes the useless from this point of view. The
Tx:17.61 The  goal of truth has further practical advantages. If the situation is

Tx:17.61  is as the goal determines it and is experienced according to the  goal.
Tx:17.62 The  goal of truth requires faith. Faith is implicit in the acceptance of
Tx:17.62  Holy Spirit's purpose, and this faith is all-inclusive. Where the  goal of truth is set, there faith must be. The Holy Spirit sees the
Tx:17.62  must be. The Holy Spirit sees the situation as a whole. The  goal establishes the fact that everyone involved in it will play his
Tx:17.63  except that this attempt conflicts with unity and must obscure the  goal of truth. And peace will not be experienced except in fantasy.
Tx:17.63  belonged. Thus do you lose the understanding of the situation the  goal of truth would bring. For fantasy solutions bring but the
Tx:17.65  it is because the thoughts are judged to be in conflict. But if the  goal is truth, this is impossible. Some idea of bodies must have
Tx:17.67  not given can be lacking in any situation. But remember this: the  goal of holiness was set for your relationship and not by you. You
Tx:17.67  another was so limited and little. Your faith must grow to meet the  goal that has been set. The goal's reality will call this forth, for
Tx:17.68  Be tempted not by what it offers you. It interferes not with the  goal, but with the value of the goal to you. Accept not the
Tx:17.68  you. It interferes not with the goal, but with the value of the  goal to you. Accept not the illusion of peace it offers, but look
Tx:17.69 The  goal of illusion is as closely tied to faithlessness as faith to
Tx:17.70 The power set in you in whom the Holy Spirit's  goal has been established is so far beyond your little conception of
Tx:17.72  the purpose of your relationship by exchanging yours for His, the  goal He placed there was extended to every situation in which you
Tx:17.73  must be a dream. You whose relationship shares the Holy Spirit's  goal are set apart from loneliness because the truth has come. Its
Tx:17.79 When you accepted truth as the  goal for your relationship, you became givers of peace as surely as
Tx:17.79  givers of peace as surely as your Father gave peace to you. For the  goal of peace cannot be accepted apart from its conditions, and you
Tx:18.1  you would perceive at once how much at variance this is with the  goal the Holy Spirit has given you and would accomplish for you. To
Tx:18.25  and sometimes to stark terror. But you will advance because your  goal is the advance from fear to truth. You know this. The goal
Tx:18.25  your goal is the advance from fear to truth. You know this. The  goal which you accepted is the goal of knowledge, for which you
Tx:18.25  fear to truth. You know this. The goal which you accepted is the  goal of knowledge, for which you signified your willingness. Fear
Tx:18.25  an instant of light, and it will be enough to remind you that your  goal is light. Truth has rushed to meet you since you called upon
Tx:18.28 Each instant that we spend together will teach you that this  goal is possible and will strengthen your desire to reach it. And in
Tx:18.63  No one accepts Atonement for himself who still accepts sin as his  goal. You have thus not met your one responsibility. Atonement is
Tx:18.66  saving time. You are attempting to follow a very long road to the  goal you have accepted. It is extremely difficult to reach Atonement
Tx:18.67  comes at last into the mind given to contemplation; or when the  goal is finally achieved by anyone, it always comes with just one
Tx:19.1  be attained, for what is wholly dedicated to truth as its only  goal is brought to truth by faith. This faith encompasses everyone
Tx:19.6  in the same place. To dedicate yourself to both is to set up a  goal forever impossible to attain, for part of it is sought through
Tx:19.6  that the body must be healed, and not the mind. For this divided  goal has given both an equal reality, which could be possible only if
Tx:19.15  of making lovely which they begin. For faith is still a learning  goal, no longer needed when the lesson has been learned. Yet truth
Tx:19.33  and to each other. Your holy relationship has as its purpose now the  goal of proving this is impossible. Heaven has smiled upon it, and
Tx:19.37  [has already begun. This is the way in which He will bring means and  goal in line. The peace He laid deep within both of you] will

Tx:19.69  it. The body will seem to be whatever is the means for reaching the  goal that you assign to it. [Only the mind can set a purpose, and
Tx:19.75  is true. Forget not that the ego has dedicated the body to the  goal of sin and places in it all its faith that this can be
Tx:19.83  final and complete disruption of communication which is the ego's  goal.
Tx:20.58  only joy. But we have also said the means to meet the Holy Spirit's  goal will come from the same Source as does His purpose. Being so
Tx:20.59  the means to Him Who changed the purpose. You recognize you want the  goal. Are you not also willing to accept the means? If you are not,
Tx:20.60 To obtain the  goal, the Holy Spirit indeed asked little. He asks no more to give
Tx:20.60  asks no more to give the means as well. The means are second to the  goal. And when you hesitate, it is because the purpose frightens
Tx:20.60  they be difficult if they are merely given you? They guarantee the  goal, and they are perfectly in line with it. Before we look at them
Tx:20.60  impossible, your wanting of the purpose has been shaken. For if a  goal is possible to reach, the means to do so must be possible as
Tx:20.61  look upon him as a body. Is this not perfectly consistent with the  goal of holiness? For holiness is merely the result of letting the
Tx:20.64  because the goal is valued. And judgment has no value unless the  goal is sin.
Tx:20.66  is your escape from fear. Salvation is the Holy Spirit's  goal. The means is vision. For what the seeing look upon is
Tx:20.75  what you see. For what you see is merely how you elect to meet your  goal. Hallucinations serve to meet the goal of madness. They are the
Tx:20.75  how you elect to meet your goal. Hallucinations serve to meet the  goal of madness. They are the means by which the outside world,
Tx:21.15  what I see. I chose the feelings I experience, and I decided on the  goal I would achieve. And everything that seems to happen to me, I
Tx:21.17  outside of which is nothing. Suffer, and you decided sin was your  goal. Be happy, and you gave the power of decision to Him Who must
Tx:21.24  in the unreal leads to adjustments of reality to make it fit the  goal of madness. The goal of sin induces the perception of a fearful
Tx:21.24  to adjustments of reality to make it fit the goal of madness. The  goal of sin induces the perception of a fearful world to justify its
Tx:21.29 All special relationships have sin as their  goal. For they are bargains with reality, toward which the seeming
Tx:21.30  he desires it, for nothing is so cherished and protected as is a  goal the mind accepts. This it will follow, grimly or happily, but
Tx:21.32 Faith and belief and vision are the means by which the  goal of holiness is reached. Through them the Holy Spirit leads you
Tx:21.40  differently. You can have faith in it to serve the Holy Spirit's  goal and give it power to serve as means to help the blind to see.
Tx:21.55  in its own right. It is not reinterpreted and redirected from the  goal of sin as are the others. For reason is beyond the ego's range
Tx:21.65  which it is the means, leads steadily away from madness toward the  goal of truth. And here you will lay down the burden of denying
Tx:22.29  is it possible for them to co-exist in your awareness. And reason's  goal is to make plain and therefore obvious. You can see reason.

Tx:23.32  true, attack a kindness, hatred love and murder benediction, is the  goal the laws of chaos serve. These are the means by which the laws
Tx:23.33  To be believed, its seeming laws must be perceived as real. Their  goal of madness must be seen as sanity. And fear, with ashen lips and
Tx:23.40  awareness? Are you certain which way you go? And are you sure the  goal of Heaven can be reached? If not, you walk alone. Ask, then,
Tx:24.8  him? Could you attack him if you realized you journey with him to a  goal that is the same? Would you not help him reach it in every way
Tx:24.8  that you alone can reach. And he must never reach them, or your  goal is jeopardized. Can love have meaning where the goal is triumph?
Tx:24.8  them, or your goal is jeopardized. Can love have meaning where the  goal is triumph? And what decision can be made for this that will not
Tx:24.10  has been made clean of special goals. And would you now defeat the  goal of holiness that Heaven gave it? What perspective can the
Tx:24.13  joy. But the pursuit of specialness must bring you pain. Here is a  goal that would defeat salvation and thus run counter to the Will of
Tx:24.35  own defense. It was conceived to make you frail and helpless. The  goal of separation is its curse. Yet bodies have no goal. Purpose
Tx:24.35  helpless. The goal of separation is its curse. Yet bodies have no  goal. Purpose is of the mind. And minds can change as they desire.
Tx:24.59  furious, with anger always fully justified, you have pursued this  goal with vigilance you never thought to yield and effort that you
Tx:24.60 Now you are merely asked that you pursue another  goal with far less vigilance—with little effort and with little
Tx:24.72  by giving it appearances of truth. Yet can perception serve another  goal. It is not bound to specialness but by your choice. And it is
Tx:25.25  a different purpose, and to each it is a perfect means to serve the  goal for which it is perceived. For specialness it is the perfect
Tx:25.26  that error made because it has another Maker Who can reconcile its  goal with His Creator's purpose. In His perception of the world,
Tx:25.31  make it now, the instant when all time becomes a means to reach a  goal. Make then your choice. But recognize that in this choice the
Tx:25.37  is gone because it has no purpose and is meaningless without the  goal of sin. Attack and sin are bound as one illusion, each the cause
Tx:26.22  recognizes they are not the same? This difference is the learning  goal this course has set. It will not go beyond this aim. Its only
Tx:26.31  should you waste it going nowhere when it can be used to reach a  goal as high as learning can achieve? Think not the way to Heaven's
Tx:26.89  is purposeless except for this. To add or take away from this one  goal is but to take away all purpose from the world and from
Tx:27.9  in this picture is the body not perceived as neutral and without a  goal inherent in itself. For it becomes the symbol of reproach, the
Tx:27.11 Into this empty space, from which the  goal of sin has been removed, is Heaven free to be remembered. Here
Tx:27.27  divided function, you were lost indeed. His inability to see His  goal divided and distinct for each of you preserves your Self from
Tx:27.33  learning done. No learning aid has use which can extend beyond the  goal of learning. When its aim has been accomplished, it is
Tx:27.54  be achieved. Thus are they means for nothing, for they have a  goal without a meaning. And they share the lack of meaning which
Tx:29.8 The body, innocent of any  goal, is your excuse for variable goals you hold and force the body
Tx:29.28  And each one represents some function which you have assigned, some  goal which an event, or body, or a thing should represent and
Tx:29.35 If you but knew the glorious  goal that lies beyond forgiveness, you would not keep hold on any
Tx:29.40  however changeless it appears to be. Think not that you can set a  goal unlike God's purpose for you and establish it as changeless and
Tx:29.46 Whenever you attempt to reach a  goal in which the body's betterment is cast as major beneficiary, you
Tx:30.1 The new beginning now becomes the focus of the curriculum. The  goal is clear, but now you need specific methods for attaining it.
Tx:30.24  has no longer been obscured by the insane belief you want it for the  goal of being right when you are wrong. Thus is the readiness for
Tx:30.57  only purpose of the world is seen to be forgiveness. Fear is not its  goal, and the escape from guilt becomes its aim. The value of
Tx:30.58  by attack is understanding lost. The folly of pursuing guilt as  goal is fully recognized. And idols are not wanted there, for guilt
Tx:30.62  real world's purpose gently brought into awareness, to replace the  goal of sin and guilt. And all that stood between your image of
Tx:30.75  means you think forgiveness must be limited. And you have set a  goal of partial pardon and a limited escape from guilt for you.
Tx:30.86  goals which makes perception shift and meaning change. In one united  goal does this become impossible, for your agreement makes
Tx:30.87  the symbols which are used mean different things? The Holy Spirit's  goal gives one interpretation, meaningful to you and to your brother.
Tx:31.23  back when he would go ahead? For so do you forget the journey's  goal, which is but to decide to walk with him, so neither leads nor
Tx:31.39  course to be too difficult to learn, let me repeat that to achieve a  goal you must proceed in its direction, not away from it. And every
Tx:31.41  His Love. No pathway in the world can lead to Him, nor any worldly  goal is one with His. What road in all the world will lead within,
W1:I.1  exercises meaningful. Yet it is the exercises which will make the  goal possible. An untrained mind can accomplish nothing. It is the
W1:4.3  form. The aim here is to train you in the first steps toward the  goal of separating the meaningless from the meaningful. It is a first
W1:20.3  mistake the little effort that is asked of you for a sign that our  goal is of little worth. Can the salvation of the world be a trivial
W1:24.1  you will not serve your own best interests. Yet they are your only  goal in any situation which is correctly perceived. Otherwise, you

W1:42.10  the day, the more often you will be reminding yourself that the  goal of the course is important to you and that you have not
W1:44.3  difficult form for the undisciplined mind and represents a major  goal of mind training. It embodies precisely what the untrained mind
W1:62.2  are one. That is why all forgiveness is a gift to yourself. Your  goal is to find out who you are, having denied your Identity by
W1:65.7 This thought reflects a  goal that is preventing me from accepting my only function.
W1:69.3  and no other function to fulfill. Learning salvation is our only  goal. Let us end the ancient search today by finding the light in us
W1:72.11 Our  goal in the longer practice periods today is to become aware that
W1:72.11  for salvation has already been accomplished in us. To achieve this  goal, we must replace attack with acceptance. As long as we attack
W1:74.1  conflicting goals. As an expression of the Will of God, you have no  goal but His.
W1:75.4  is what we want to see, and only this. Our single purpose makes our  goal inevitable. Today the real world rises before us in gladness, to
W1:94.6 Nothing is required of you to reach this  goal except to lay all idols and self-images aside, go past the long
W1:95.6  for you at this time, planned to include frequent reminders of your  goal and regular attempts to reach it. Regularity in terms of time is
W1:95.16  joy and peace. You are God's Son, One Self with one Creator and one  goal—to bring awareness of this oneness to all minds, that true
W1:95.20 Throughout the day do not forget your  goal. Repeat today's idea as frequently as possible and understand
W1:98.2  and have been given everything we need with which to reach the  goal. Not one mistake stands in our way, for we have been absolved
W1:100.10  on Him? What little thought has power to hold you back? What foolish  goal can keep you from success when He Who calls to you is God
W1:101.10  wings to speed you on and hope to go still faster to the waiting  goal of peace. There is no sin. Remember this today, and tell
W1:105.3  give and leaves you nothing in the ones you take. A major learning  goal this course has set is to reverse your view of giving, so you
W1:R3.2  up in terms of numbers. Rituals are not our aim and would defeat our  goal.
W1:R3.4  should be done as soon as you have changed your mind about your  goal. You are unwilling to cooperate in practicing salvation only if
W1:126.1  there would be no problem in complete forgiveness, certainty of  goal, and sure direction. You would understand the means by which
W1:126.11 As often as you can, remind yourself you have a  goal today—an aim which makes this day of special value to yourself
W1:126.11  to yourself and all your brothers. Do not let your mind forget this  goal for long, but tell yourself:
W1:127.6  step this course requests in your advance toward its established  goal. If you achieve the faintest glimmering of what love means
W1:131.4  surely do the thing you came for. But the world cannot dictate the  goal for which you search unless you give it power to do so.
W1:131.4  give it power to do so. Otherwise, you still are free to choose a  goal that lies beyond the world and every worldly thought and one
W1:131.5  Be glad as well to learn you search for Heaven and must find the  goal you really want. No one can fail to want this goal and reach it
W1:131.5  and must find the goal you really want. No one can fail to want this  goal and reach it in the end. God's Son cannot seek vainly, though he
W1:131.6  from you. It will go because you do not want it. You will reach the  goal you really want as certainly as God created you in sinlessness.
W1:131.11  is truth we ask to reach today. We will devote ten minutes to this  goal three times today, and we will ask to see the rising of the real
W1:131.15  you make today. Nothing but this has any meaning now; no other  goal is valued now nor sought; nothing before this door you really
W1:131.17  for we come to the appointed time and place where you will find the  goal of all your searching here and all the seeking of the world,
W1:135.12  that obstacles cannot impede its progress to accomplishment of any  goal which serves the greater plan established for the good of
W1:139.8  the madness which we once believed in. Let us not forget the  goal that we accepted. It is more than just our happiness alone we
W1:153.15  we give to preparation for a day in which salvation is the only  goal we have. Ten would be better; 15 better still. And as
W1:153.21  nor timid. There can be no doubt that you will reach your final  goal. The ministers of God can never fail because the love and
W1:155.13  cannot be deceived. His trust has made your pathway certain and your  goal secure. You will not fail your brothers nor your Self.
W1:157.2  an instant and we go beyond it, sure of our direction and our only  goal.
W1:158.6  unlearned, untaught, unseen, is merely there. This is beyond our  goal, for it transcends what needs to be accomplished. Our concern is
W1:158.8  anything that faintly can compare with this in value; nor set up a  goal which does not merely disappear when this has been perceived.
W1:169.1  for it leads beyond the world entirely. It is past learning yet the  goal of learning, for grace cannot come until the mind prepares
W1:169.3  The final step must go beyond all learning. Grace is not the  goal this course aspires to attain. Yet we prepare for grace in that
W1:169.14 Our learning  goal today does not exceed this prayer, yet in the world, what could
W1:R5.1  for we approach a greater certainty, a firmer purpose and a surer  goal.
W1:R5.7  shorten time immeasurably if we keep in mind that This remains our  goal, and as we practice, it is This to which we are approaching. Let
W1:I2.2  your vision narrow and too limited to let you see the value of our  goal. We are attempting now to lift these blocks, however briefly.
W1:181.5  upon the sinlessness within. We recognize that we have lost this  goal if anger blocks our way in any form. And if a brother's sins
W1:184.5  Yet you believe this is what learning means—its one essential  goal by which communication is achieved and concepts can be
W1:185.4  the form. The meaning must escape the dream, for compromising is the  goal of dreaming. Minds cannot unite in dreams. They merely bargain.
W1:186.11  They will not change nor be in conflict. All of them point to one  goal, and one you can attain. Your plan may be impossible, but God's
W1:194.1  that it encompasses, it sets you down just short of Heaven, with the  goal in sight and obstacles behind. Your foot has reached the lawns
W1:194.1  we progressing now from earth! How close are we approaching to our  goal! How short the journey still to be pursued!
W1:199.4  a vehicle which helps forgiveness be extended to the all-inclusive  goal that it must reach according to God's plan.
W1:199.6  And it becomes perfect in the ability to serve an undivided  goal. In conflict-free and unequivocal response to mind with but the
W1:199.6  unequivocal response to mind with but the thought of freedom as its  goal, the body serves, and serves its purpose well. Without the power
W1:R6.11  it has been given as we practice day by day, advancing toward the  goal He set for us, allowing Him to teach us how to go, and trusting
W1:205.1  The peace of God is everything I want. The peace of God is my one  goal; the aim of all my living here, the end I seek, my purpose and
W2:I.1  the world of pain and go to enter peace. Now we begin to reach the  goal this course has set and find the end toward which our practicing
W2:I.2  to God when we have need of Him as we are tempted to forget our  goal.
W2:WF.2  a fixed projection and the aim that it has chosen as its needed  goal?
W2:WF.3  thought does many things. In frantic action, it pursues its  goal, twisting and overturning what it sees as interfering with its
W2:226.1  I behold it, nothing that I want to keep as mine or search for as a  goal, it will depart from me. For I have not sought for illusions to
W2:WIS.2  striving to deceive itself. Its purpose is to strive. Yet can the  goal of striving change. And now the body serves a different aim for
W2:WIS.2  now is chosen by the aim the mind has taken as replacement for the  goal of self-deception. Truth can be its aim as well as lies. The
W2:256.1  impossible, and it is this we choose to dream today. God is our  goal; forgiveness is the means by which our minds return to Him at
W2:256.2  our Father, would we come to You in Your appointed way. We have no  goal except to hear Your Voice and find the way Your sacred Word has
W2:257.1 If I forget my  goal, I can be but confused, unsure of what I am and thus conflicted
W2:258.1  to overlook all little, senseless aims and to remember that our  goal is God. His memory is hidden in our minds, obscured but by our
W2:258.1  toys and trinkets of the world are sought instead? God is our only  goal, our only Love. We have no aim but to remember Him.
W2:258.2 Our  goal is but to follow in the way that leads to You. We have no goal
W2:258.2 Our goal is but to follow in the way that leads to You. We have no  goal but this. What could we want but to remember You? What could we
W2:259.1 Sin is the only thought that makes the  goal of God seem unobtainable. What else could blind us to the
W2:WIB.4  it was made to fence him into hell without escape, yet has the  goal of Heaven been exchanged for the pursuit of hell. The Son of God
W2:WIC.5  it is but the symbol that the time for learning now is over and the  goal of the Atonement has been reached at last? So therefore let us
W2:WIHS.2 The  goal the Holy Spirit's teaching sets is just this end of dreams. For
W2:WIHS.2  when this is entirely accomplished, learning has achieved the only  goal it has in truth. For learning, as the Holy Spirit guides it to
W2:286.2  we have found the way and traveled far along it to a wholly certain  goal. Today we will not doubt the end which God Himself has promised
W2:287.2 You are my  goal, my Father. What but You could I desire to have? What way but
W2:287.2  of dreams and futile substitutions for the truth? You are my only  goal. Your Son would be as You created him. What way but this could I
W2:288.1 This is the thought that leads the way to You and brings me to my  goal. I cannot come to You without my brother. And to know my Source,
W2:WIRW.5  it goes and leaving but the Truth to be Itself. That instant is our  goal, for it contains the memory of God. And as we look upon a world
W2:296.2  teach today what we would learn and that alone. And so our learning  goal becomes an unconflicted one and possible of easy reach and quick

Tx:1.81  higher to lower communication, keeping the direct channel from  God to man open for revelation. Revelation is not reciprocal. It is

Tx:1.91  what he is—that is, what he lacks. A sense of separation from  God is the only lack he really needs to correct. This sense of

Tx:2.5 To “project,” as defined above, is a fundamental attribute of  God which He gave to His Son. In the creation, God projected His
Tx:2.5  attribute of God which He gave to His Son. In the creation,  God projected His creative ability from Himself to the Souls He

Tx:3.21 Sacrifice is a notion totally unknown to  God. It arises solely from fear. This is particularly unfortunate
Tx:3.22 I have been correctly referred to as “the Lamb of  God who taketh away the sins of the world.” Those who represent the
Tx:3.24  the meaning of the Atonement is perfectly apparent. The innocence of  God is the true state of mind of His Son. In this state, man's mind

Tx:3.31  fact that you do not recognize or know yourselves, each other, or  God. To recognize means to “know again,” implying that you knew
Tx:3.35  you to “know yourself” or be certain. Certainty is always of  God. When you love someone, you have perceived him as he is, and this
Tx:3.35  him that you can know him. While you ask questions about  God, you are clearly implying that you do not know Him. Certainty

Tx:3.37  God is not a stranger to His Sons, and His Sons are not strangers to

Tx:3.50  wills can do this now, and you will find rest for your Souls.  God knows you only in peace, and this is your reality.
Tx:3.53  human beings are not. Nevertheless, they are perfectly stable as  God created them. In this sense, when their behavior is unstable they

Tx:3.67 The belief is very frightening to them but hardly troubles  God. He is, however, eager to undo it, not to punish His Children,

Tx:3.72  system which is based on lies is weak. Nothing made by a Child of  God is without power. It is essential to realize this because
Tx:3.73  also know that you cannot weaken it, any more than you can weaken  God. The “devil” is a frightening concept, because he is thought of
Tx:3.73  and extremely active. He is perceived as a force in combat with  God, battling Him for possession of the Souls He created. He deceives
Tx:3.73  kingdoms of his own in which everything is in direct opposition to  God. Yet he attracts men rather than repels them, and they are seen
Tx:3.75  could not have forbidden it or it could not have been eaten. If  God knows His Children, and I assure you that He does, would He have
Tx:3.75  “tree” which was forbidden was named the “tree of knowledge.” Yet  God created knowledge and gave it freely to His creations. The
Tx:3.75  but you may be sure that any interpretation which sees either  God or His creations as capable of destroying their own purpose is
Tx:3.76  the ability for self-creating. This is the only sense in which  God and His Souls are not co-creators. The belief that they are

Tx:3.79 Your creation by  God is the only foundation which cannot be shaken because the light

Tx:4.14  by your teaching or your learning. Your worth was established by  God. As long as you dispute this, everything you do will be
Tx:4.14  debatable except in delusions. Your ego is never at stake because  God did not create it. Your Soul is never at stake because He
Tx:4.15  reach of your Soul. When you are afraid, be still and know that  God is real and you are His beloved Son in whom He is well pleased.
Tx:4.16  God is not the author of fear. You are. You have chosen,
Tx:4.16  You are not at peace because you are not fulfilling your function.  God gave you a very lofty responsibility which you are not meeting.
Tx:4.17 The word “inevitable” is fearful to the ego but joyous to the Soul.  God is inevitable, and you cannot avoid Him any more than He can
Tx:4.17  behind! Do not listen to it, and do not preserve it. Listen only to  God, Who is as incapable of deception as are the Souls He created.
Tx:4.18  impoverished house stand. Its weakness is your strength. Only  God could make a home that is worthy of His creations, who have
Tx:4.18  you when you choose to enter it. Of this you can be wholly certain.  God is as incapable of creating the perishable as the ego is of
Tx:4.19  beyond perception, and stand forever as the mark of the Love of  God for His creations, who are wholly worthy of Him and only of
Tx:4.19  Nothing else is sufficiently worthy to be a gift for a creation of  God Himself.
Tx:4.27  as a very real part of himself. Man reacts to his ego much as  God does to His Souls: with love, protection, and great charity. The
Tx:4.28  viewpoint. [That is why the Bible quotes me as saying “Ye believe in  God, believe also in me.” Belief does apply to me, because I am the
Tx:4.28  ego.] When teaching is no longer necessary, you will merely know  God. Belief that there is another way is the loftiest idea of which
Tx:4.29  Be patient awhile and remember that the outcome is as certain as  God.
Tx:4.34  why self-esteem in ego terms must be a delusion. The creations of  God do not create myths, although the creative efforts of man can
Tx:4.46  of the lofty is actually much greater to the ego because the pull of  God Himself can hardly be equated with the pull of human appetites.
Tx:4.47 The upper level of the unconscious thus contains the Call of  God as well as the call of the body. That is why the basic conflict
Tx:4.48  can its meager offering to you prevail against the glorious gift of  God?
Tx:4.49 You who identify with your egos cannot believe that  God loves you. You do not love what you have made, and what you
Tx:4.49  You cannot conceive of the real relationship which exists between  God and His Souls because of the hatred you have for the self you
Tx:4.51  enough or worthy enough to guide you. In this you are as free as  God and must remain so forever. You can never be bound except in
Tx:4.53 I will never forsake you any more than  God will, but I must wait as long as you choose to forsake

Tx:4.54  between having the Kingdom of God and being the Kingdom of  God.
Tx:4.56 If you cannot hear the Voice of  God, it is because you do not choose to listen. The fact that you
Tx:4.56  to save the face of your egos, and you do not seek the Face of  God. The glass in which the ego seeks to see its face is dark indeed.
Tx:4.57  not be. In every case you have thought wrongly about some Soul that  God created and are perceiving images your ego makes in a darkened
Tx:4.57  makes in a darkened glass. Think honestly what you have thought that  God would not have thought and what you have not thought that God
Tx:4.57  God would not have thought and what you have not thought that  God would have you think. Search sincerely for what you have done and
Tx:4.61  you feel guilty, know that the ego has indeed violated the laws of  God, but you have not. Leave the sins of the ego to me. That is
Tx:4.63 The habit of engaging with  God and His creations is easily made if you actively refuse to let
Tx:4.63  of them you have refused? There is no limit to the power of a Son of  God, but he himself can limit the expression of his power as much as
Tx:4.64  can unite in shining your ego away and releasing the strength of  God into everything you think and will and do. Do not settle for
Tx:4.65 You are mirrors of truth in which  God Himself shines in perfect light. To the ego's dark glass you need
Tx:4.66  is just another name for the creation, for Christ is the Son of  God. The second coming of Christ means nothing more than the end of
Tx:4.68  that life is an eternal attribute of everything that the living  God created. Why do you believe it is harder for me to inspire the
Tx:4.70  state is its lack of discrimination between impulses from  God and from the body. Any thought system which makes this confusion
Tx:4.70  non-threat to itself. In one sense the ego's fear of the idea of  God is at least logical, since this idea does dispel the ego. Fear
Tx:4.71  vulnerability is its own best argument that you cannot be of  God. This is the belief that the ego sponsors eagerly. Yet the ego
Tx:4.74  to anything that is eternal because the eternal must come from  God. Eternalness is the one function which the ego has tried to
Tx:4.87  and can never induce more than a temporary effect. The rewards of  God, however, are immediately recognized as eternal. Since this
Tx:4.90  to each other is the only gift I want. I will bring it to  God for you, knowing that to know your brother is to know God. A
Tx:4.90  it to God for you, knowing that to know your brother is to know  God. A little knowledge is an all-encompassing thing. If you are
Tx:4.90  thing. If you are grateful to each other, you are grateful to  God for what He created. Through your gratitude, you can come to know
Tx:4.90  it does set all things right. Because you are all the Kingdom of  God, I can lead you back to your own creations, which you do not yet
Tx:4.91  it is inherent in it. Meditation is a collaborative venture with  God. It cannot be undertaken successfully by those who disengage
Tx:4.91  from the Sonship because they are disengaging themselves from me.  God will come to you only as you will give Him to your brothers.
Tx:4.91  to your brothers. Learn first of them, and you will be ready to hear  God as you hear them. That is because the function of love is one.

Tx:4.97 This communication is the Will of  God. Creation and communication are synonymous. God created every
Tx:4.97  is the Will of God. Creation and communication are synonymous.  God created every mind by communicating His Mind to it, thus
Tx:4.97  not subject to any judgment, any exception, or any alteration.  God created you by this and for this. The mind can distort its
Tx:4.99  God, Who encompasses all being, nevertheless created beings who
Tx:4.99  that is real can be increased except by sharing. That is why  God Himself created you. Divine Abstraction takes joy in application,
Tx:4.100 The Bible repeatedly states that you should praise  God. This hardly means that you should tell Him how wonderful He is.
Tx:4.101  God has kept your kingdom for you, but He cannot share His joy with

Tx:5.19  and the separation began at the same time. When man made the ego,  God placed in him the call to joy. This call is so strong that the
Tx:5.19  two voices within you. One you made yourself and that one is not of  God. But the other is given you by God Who asks you only to listen
Tx:5.19  yourself and that one is not of God. But the other is given you by  God Who asks you only to listen to it. The Holy Spirit is in you in a

Tx:5.21  You knew as you will know again, but as you do not know now.  God does not guide because He can share only perfect knowledge.
Tx:5.22  It means that knowledge has been lost, because knowledge is sure.  God is not in you in a literal sense; you are part of Him. When

Tx:5.25  which always speaks for the right choice because He speaks for  God. He is your remaining communication with God, which you can

Tx:5.34 Your brother may have dissociated the Call for  God, just as you have. The dissociation is healed in both of you
Tx:5.34  is healed in both of you as you become aware of the Call for  God in him and thus acknowledge its being. There are two ways of
Tx:5.37  the ego and the Soul, with time and eternity. Eternity is an idea of  God, so the Soul understands it perfectly. Time is a belief of the
Tx:5.38  symbols into eternity also enables Him to understand the laws of  God, for which He speaks. He can thus perform the function of

Tx:5.57  gives you the power of a healed mind, but the power to create is of  God. Therefore, those who have been forgiven must devote themselves

Tx:5.62 However ridiculous the idea of attacking  God may be to the sane mind, never forget that the ego is not
Tx:5.62  to the ego's voice means that you believe it is possible to attack  God. You believe that a part of Him has been torn away by you. The
Tx:5.63  it to enter makes it your reality. This is because the mind, as  God created it, is capable of creating reality. We said before that
Tx:5.63  creating reality. We said before that you must learn to think with  God. To think with Him is to think like Him. This engenders joy,
Tx:5.65  that by punishing itself it will mitigate the punishment of  God. Yet even in this it is arrogant. It attributes to God a
Tx:5.65  punishment of God. Yet even in this it is arrogant. It attributes to  God a punishing intent, and then takes over this intent as its own
Tx:5.65  as its own prerogative. It tries to usurp all the functions of  God as it perceives them, because it recognizes that only total
Tx:5.66 The ego cannot oppose the laws of  God any more than you can, but it can interpret them according to
Tx:5.67  The ego and the Holy Spirit are the only choices open to you.  God created one, and so you cannot eradicate it. You made the
Tx:5.67  eradicate it. You made the other, and so you can. Only what  God creates is irreversible and unchangeable. What you have made
Tx:5.67  made can always be changed, because when you do not think like  God you are not really thinking at all. Delusional ideas are not real
Tx:5.67  in them. But you are wrong. The function of thought comes from  God and is in God. As part of His Thought, you cannot think apart
Tx:5.67  you are wrong. The function of thought comes from God and is in  God. As part of His Thought, you cannot think apart from Him.
Tx:5.68 Irrational thought is a thought disorder.  God Himself orders your thought because your thought was created by
Tx:5.68  know this. They also show that you believe you can think apart from  God and want to. Every thought disorder is attended by guilt at its
Tx:5.71  God in His knowledge is not waiting, but His Kingdom is bereft while
Tx:5.71  waiting, but His Kingdom is bereft while you wait. All the Sons of  God are waiting for your return, just as you are waiting for
Tx:5.71  You do not belong in time. Your place is only in eternity, where  God Himself placed you forever.
Tx:5.72  the belief that you cannot escape from it. But you can and must.  God offers you the continuity of eternity in exchange. When you
Tx:5.73  mind does indeed know its power, because the mind does indeed know  God. Remember the Kingdom always, and remember that you who are part
Tx:5.73  Kingdom cannot be lost. The mind that was in me is in you, for  God creates with perfect fairness. Let the Holy Spirit remind you
Tx:5.76  it in you because it does not belong in your mind, which is part of  God.
Tx:5.79  the case against you. There can be no case against a Child of  God, and every witness to guilt in God's creations is bearing false
Tx:5.79  witness to guilt in God's creations is bearing false witness to  God Himself.
Tx:5.80  The case may be foolproof, but it is not God-proof. The Voice for  God will not hear it at all because He can only witness truly. His
Tx:5.81  with each other is your patience with yourselves. Is not a Child of  God worth patience? I have shown you infinite patience because my
Tx:5.82  when it is no longer useful. The Holy Spirit, Who speaks for  God in time, also knows that time is meaningless. He reminds you of
Tx:5.82  is so truly blessed, and because He has been given you so freely by  God, you must give Him as you received Him.
Tx:5.83  that God's peace is set in the Holy Spirit because it is fixed on  God. It is also fixed in you. You, then, are fixed in the peace of
Tx:5.83  God. It is also fixed in you. You, then, are fixed in the peace of  God. The concept of “fixation” is also a very helpful one which Freud
Tx:5.85 Fixation is the pull of  God, on whom your mind is fixed because of the Holy Spirit's
Tx:5.89  you are in the same position. You were eternally fixated on  God in your creation, and the pull of this fixation is so strong that
Tx:5.91  of difficulty in miracles. He has not learned that every mind  God created is equally worthy of being healed because God created it
Tx:5.91  every mind God created is equally worthy of being healed because  God created it whole. You are merely asked to return to God the mind
Tx:5.91  because God created it whole. You are merely asked to return to  God the mind as He created it. He asks you only for what He gave,
Tx:5.92  calls which you think are made upon you when you know the Voice of  God Himself is in you? God commended His Spirit to you and asks that
Tx:5.92  made upon you when you know the Voice of God Himself is in you?  God commended His Spirit to you and asks that you commend yours to
Tx:5.93  because, as I told you before, the remedy is not of your making.  God Himself gave you the perfect correction for everything you have
Tx:5.93  that you fulfill it. There is time for delay, but there need not be.  God weeps at the “sacrifice” of His Children, who believe they are
Tx:5.94  is because you have reacted with a lack of love to some Soul which  God created. Perceiving this as “sin,” you become defensive because
Tx:5.95  which does not come from you, is nevertheless within you because  God placed it there. Your part is merely to return your thinking to
Tx:5.96  will let Him. I will to let Him, by allowing Him to decide for  God for Me.
Tx:6.6  in the apparent intensity of the assault of some of the Sons of  God upon another. This, of course, is impossible and must be fully
Tx:6.9  are teaching persecution. This is not a lesson which the Sons of  God should want to teach if they are to realize their own
Tx:6.10  is merely the dawning on your minds of what is already in them.  God placed it there Himself, and so it is true forever. I believed in
Tx:6.10  Help me to teach it to our brothers in the name of the Kingdom of  God, but first believe that it is true for you, or you will teach
Tx:6.12  love has a hidden altar which is not serving the purpose for which  God intended it. I must found His church on you because you who
Tx:6.13  ego did not matter. As the world judges these things, but not as  God knows them, I was betrayed, abandoned, beaten, torn, and
Tx:6.15  give in to anger and assault would not be so extreme. I will with  God that none of His Sons should suffer.
Tx:6.16 Remember that the Holy Spirit is the communication link between  God the Father and His separated Sons. If you will listen to His
Tx:6.16  is the symbol of sharing, because the reawakening of every Son of  God is necessary to enable the Sonship to know its wholeness. Only
Tx:6.21  upon Judas was a similar reversal. Judas was my brother and a Son of  God, as much a part of the Sonship as myself. Was it likely that I
Tx:6.22  but for teachers. No one is “punished” for sins, and the Sons of  God are not sinners.
Tx:6.23  [is] the perfect symbol of conflict between the ego and the Son of  God. [It was as much intrapersonal as interpersonal then, just as it
Tx:6.23  your weakened ability to be grateful, or you cannot appreciate  God. He does not need your appreciation, but you do.
Tx:6.24  As a result, you will teach rejection. The power of the Sons of  God is operating all the time because they were created as creators.
Tx:6.24  As long as you teach this, you still believe it. This is not as  God thinks, and you must think as He thinks if you are to know Him
Tx:6.25  part of it, and this is the belief in separation. The wholeness of  God, which is His peace, cannot be appreciated except by a whole
Tx:6.30  by realizing that you are not there? You cannot be anywhere that  God did not put you, and God created you as part of Him. That is both
Tx:6.30  not there? You cannot be anywhere that God did not put you, and  God created you as part of Him. That is both where you are and
Tx:6.30  It is forever true. It is not a belief but a fact. Anything that  God create[s] is as true as He is. Its truth lies only in its perfect
Tx:6.31  of God's knowing. The ego's perception has no counterpart in  God, but the Holy Spirit remains the bridge between perception and
Tx:6.31  Your perception will end where it began. Everything meets in  God, because everything was created by Him and in Him.
Tx:6.32  God created His Sons by extending His Thought and retaining the
Tx:6.32  of inclusion, directed by the Holy Spirit under the laws of  God. God created you to create. You cannot extend His Kingdom until
Tx:6.32  of inclusion, directed by the Holy Spirit under the laws of God.  God created you to create. You cannot extend His Kingdom until you
Tx:6.33  use it well. He can inspire perception and lead it toward  God by making it parallel to God's way of thinking and thus
Tx:6.34 The Holy Spirit uses time but does not believe in it. Coming from  God, He uses everything for good, but He does not believe in what
Tx:6.34  true. The Holy Spirit can speak only for this because he speaks for  God. He tells you to return your whole mind to God, because it has
Tx:6.34  because he speaks for God. He tells you to return your whole mind to  God, because it has never left Him. If it has never left Him, you
Tx:6.36  Holy Spirit sees. This line is the direct line of communication with  God and lets your mind converge with His. There is no conflict
Tx:6.36  perception is guided by the Holy Spirit, Whose Mind is fixed on  God. Only the Holy Spirit can resolve conflict, because only the
Tx:6.37  united, He offers the whole Kingdom always. This is the one message  God gave to Him and for which He must speak, because that is what
Tx:6.37  for which He must speak, because that is what He is. The peace of  God lies in that message, and so the peace of God lies in you.
Tx:6.37  He is. The peace of God lies in that message, and so the peace of  God lies in you.
Tx:6.38  and by joining our minds in this light, we proclaim the Kingdom of  God together and as one.
Tx:6.40  nothing, He presents no barrier at all to the communication of  God. Thus, being is never threatened. Your Godlike mind can never
Tx:6.42  it does not see the need to protect itself. The protection of  God then dawns upon it, assuring it that it is perfectly safe
Tx:6.46 When  God created you, He made you part of Him. That is why attack within
Tx:6.46  of your mind that believes you are separate and outside the Mind of  God. The ego, then, raised the first question that was ever asked,
Tx:6.50  to all the questions which the ego raises. You are a Child of  God, a priceless part of His Kingdom, which He created as part of
Tx:6.50  in which you have had bad dreams, but the sleep is not real, and  God calls you to awake. There will be nothing left of your dream when
Tx:6.51  been. Being alone lives in the Kingdom, where everything lives in  God without question. The time that was spent on questioning in the
Tx:6.52 You are as certain as  God because you are as true as He is, but what was once quite certain
Tx:6.53  or you cannot use them. This is not true of anything that  God created, but it is the kindest solution possible to what you
Tx:6.54  possible to be in one. You would be in an impossible situation if  God showed you your perfection and proved to you that you were
Tx:6.54  This is the kind of “reasoning” which the ego engages in, but  God, Who knows that His creations are perfect, does not insult
Tx:6.55  not exist. Fidelity to premises is a law of mind, and everything  God created is faithful to His laws. Fidelity to other laws is also
Tx:6.55  laws are true, but because you made them. What would be gained if  God proved to you that you have thought insanely? Can God lose His
Tx:6.55  be gained if God proved to you that you have thought insanely? Can  God lose His own certainty? We have frequently stated that what you
Tx:6.55  have frequently stated that what you teach you are. Would you have  God teach you that you have sinned? If He confronted the self you
Tx:6.56  God does not teach. To teach is to imply a lack, which God knows is
Tx:6.56 God does not teach. To teach is to imply a lack, which  God knows is not there. God is not conflicted. Teaching aims at
Tx:6.56  teach. To teach is to imply a lack, which God knows is not there.  God is not conflicted. Teaching aims at change, but God created only
Tx:6.56  is not there. God is not conflicted. Teaching aims at change, but  God created only the changeless. The separation was not a loss of
Tx:6.56  arose as the ego's voice. It could not shatter the peace of  God, but it could shatter yours. God did not blot it out, because
Tx:6.56  could not shatter the peace of God, but it could shatter yours.  God did not blot it out, because to eradicate it would be to attack
Tx:6.57  was not true. You did not believe in your own perfection. Could  God teach you that you had made a split mind, when He knows your mind
Tx:6.57  had made a split mind, when He knows your mind only as whole? What  God does know is that His communication channels are not open to
Tx:6.60  lies in dreams, and the Holy Spirit, shining with the light from  God Himself, speaks only for what lasts forever.
Tx:6.62  God did not make the body because it is destructible and therefore
Tx:6.64  equality. Only one equal gift can be offered to the equal Sons of  God, and that is full appreciation. Nothing more and nothing less.
Tx:6.65 The Holy Spirit, who leads to  God, translates communication into being, just as He ultimately
Tx:6.76  is true, but the Holy Spirit teaches you that truth was created by  God, and your decision cannot change it. As you begin to realize
Tx:6.76  help in reminding yourselves to allow the Holy Spirit to decide for  God for you.
Tx:6.80  desire wholly is to create, and creating cannot be difficult if  God Himself created you as a creator. The second step, then, is
Tx:6.82  every thought that you allow to enter your mind in the light of what  God put there. Whatever is in accord with this light, He retains
Tx:6.84  is necessary only in your mind so that you cannot project falsely.  God Himself has established what you can project with perfect safety.
Tx:6.85 Be vigilant only for  God and His Kingdom.
Tx:6.89 If you allow yourselves to have in your minds only what  God put there, you are acknowledging your mind as God created it.
Tx:6.89  only what God put there, you are acknowledging your mind as  God created it. Therefore, you are accepting it as it is. Since it
Tx:6.89  you believe in it. The final step will still be taken for you by  God, but by the third step the Holy Spirit has prepared you for
Tx:6.89  by God, but by the third step the Holy Spirit has prepared you for  God. He is getting you ready for the translation of having into
Tx:6.91  your minds, allowing you to identify only with the center, where  God placed the altar to Himself. We have already said that altars are
Tx:6.91  altar to Himself. We have already said that altars are beliefs, but  God and His creations are beyond belief, because they are beyond
Tx:6.91  are beyond belief, because they are beyond question. The Voice for  God speaks only for belief beyond question, which is the
Tx:6.91  the preparation for being without question. As long as belief in  God and His Kingdom is assailed by any doubts in your minds, His
Tx:6.93  or you cannot know what you are with certainty. Certainty is of  God for you. Vigilance is not necessary for truth, but it is
Tx:6.94  Kingdom which you valued, you did not keep only the Kingdom of  God in your minds and thus placed part of your mind outside it.
Tx:6.95  true and needs no protection. It is in the perfect safety of  God. Therefore inclusion is total and creation is without limit.
Tx:7.1 The creative power of both  God and His creations is limitless, but they are not in reciprocal
Tx:7.1  are not in reciprocal relationship. You do communicate fully with  God, as He does with you. This is an ongoing process in which you
Tx:7.1  share, and because you share it, you are inspired to create like  God. Yet in creation you are not in reciprocal relation to God, since
Tx:7.1  like God. Yet in creation you are not in reciprocal relation to  God, since He created you, but you did not create Him. We have
Tx:7.2 If you created  God and He created you, the Kingdom could not increase through its
Tx:7.2  would therefore be limited, and you would not be co-creators with  God. As God's creative Thought proceeds from Him to you, so must your
Tx:7.2  the Kingdom. You claim this power when you become vigilant only for  God and His Kingdom. By accepting this power as yours, you have
Tx:7.3 Your creations belong in you, as you belong in  God. You are part of God, as your sons are part of His Sons. To
Tx:7.3 Your creations belong in you, as you belong in God. You are part of  God, as your sons are part of His Sons. To create is to love. Love
Tx:7.3  Your creations have always been, because you can create only as  God creates. Eternity is yours, because He created you eternal.
Tx:7.4  bargain is to limit giving, and this is not God's Will. To will with  God is to create like Him. God does not limit His gifts in any way.
Tx:7.4  and this is not God's Will. To will with God is to create like Him.  God does not limit His gifts in any way. You are His gifts, and so
Tx:7.5  I was. What you believe you are determines your gifts, and if  God created you by extending Himself as you, you can only extend
Tx:7.5  Only joy increases forever, since joy and eternity are inseparable.  God extends outward beyond limits and beyond time, and you who are
Tx:7.6 To think like  God is to share His certainty of what you are and to create like
Tx:7.6  leads you that your joy may be complete, because the Kingdom of  God is whole. We have said that the last step in the reawakening of
Tx:7.6  said that the last step in the reawakening of knowledge is taken by  God. This is true, but it is hard to explain in words because words
Tx:7.7  God does not take steps, because His accomplishments are not
Tx:7.7  neither to Him nor to what He created. The “last step” that  God [was said to] take was therefore true in the beginning, is true
Tx:7.8  what it is. You also do not know what created it or Who He is.  God does not reveal this to you, because it was never hidden. His
Tx:7.9  only kind of thinking in this world that resembles the Thought of  God, and because of the elements which they share, can transfer to
Tx:7.9  itself obscure to both of you. Sickness and separation are not of  God, but the Kingdom is. If you obscure the Kingdom, you are
Tx:7.14  learning, because there is no belief. There is only certainty.  God and His Sons, in the surety of being, know that what you
Tx:7.14  form of the law is not adapted at all, being the law of creation.  God Himself created the law by creating by it. And His Sons, who
Tx:7.15  is retained. The Holy Spirit is the translator of the laws of  God to those who do not understand them. You could not do this
Tx:7.18  because there is only one meaning. This meaning comes from  God and is God. Because it is also you, you share it and extend
Tx:7.18  there is only one meaning. This meaning comes from God and is  God. Because it is also you, you share it and extend it as your
Tx:7.18  nothing discordant ever enters. That is why it is the Kingdom of  God. It belongs to Him and is therefore like Him. That is its
Tx:7.24  efforts and all results. By teaching the power of the Kingdom of  God Himself, He teaches you that all power is yours. Its
Tx:7.30  God has lit your minds Himself and keeps your minds lit by His light,
Tx:7.32 Healing is also a science, because it obeys the laws of  God, Whose laws are true. Because they are true, they are perfectly
Tx:7.33  be recognized. Inspiration is of the Spirit, and certainty is of  God according to His laws. Both, therefore, come from the same
Tx:7.33  the same Source, [because] inspiration comes from the Voice for  God, and certainty comes from the laws of God. Healing does not
Tx:7.33  from the Voice for God, and certainty comes from the laws of  God. Healing does not come directly from God, Who knows His
Tx:7.33  comes from the laws of God. Healing does not come directly from  God, Who knows His creations as perfectly whole. Yet healing is
Tx:7.33  His creations as perfectly whole. Yet healing is [nevertheless] of  God, because it proceeds from His Voice and from His laws. It is
Tx:7.34  This is an intermediary step toward the knowledge that you are in  God, because you are part of Him. The miracles which the Holy Spirit
Tx:7.34  is of one order. This is God's Will and yours. The laws of  God establish this, and the Holy Spirit reminds you of it. When
Tx:7.34  you of it. When you heal, you are remembering the laws of  God and forgetting the laws of the ego. We said before that
Tx:7.35  of wholeness, and by learning of wholeness you learn to remember  God. You have forgotten Him, but the Holy Spirit still knows that
Tx:7.36  belief. This perception is therefore in accord with the laws of  God, even in a state of mind which is out of accord with His. The
Tx:7.37 To oppose the pull or the Will of  God is not an ability but a real delusion. The ego believes that it
Tx:7.37  You do not want it. It is not a gift. It is nothing at all.  God has given you a gift which you both have and are. When you do not
Tx:7.37  approaching knowledge by thinking in accordance with the laws of  God and recognizing their universality. Without this recognition,
Tx:7.38  ye first the Kingdom of Heaven, because that is where the laws of  God operate truly, and they can operate only truly since they are
Tx:7.38  only because you can find nothing else. There is nothing else.  God is all in all in a very literal sense. All being is in Him who
Tx:7.42  who does not have it. He may believe that the gift comes from  God to Him, but it is quite evident that he does not understand God
Tx:7.42  God to Him, but it is quite evident that he does not understand  God if he thinks he has something that others [do not]. You might
Tx:7.44  is therefore in conflict and teaching conflict. Can anything of  God not be for all and for always?
Tx:7.46  predictable, because it can be counted on. Everything that is of  God can be counted on, because everything of God is wholly real.
Tx:7.46  Everything that is of God can be counted on, because everything of  God is wholly real. Healing can be counted on, because it is
Tx:7.46  inconsistently understood. Understanding means consistence because  God means consistence. Since that is His meaning, it is also
Tx:7.46  and your only meaning, comes from His and is like His.  God cannot be out of accord with Himself, and you cannot be out
Tx:7.47  is constant and so vital in its power for change that a Son of  God can recognize his power in one instant and change the world in
Tx:7.50 That is how  God Himself created you—in understanding, in appreciation, and in
Tx:7.53  you and on the whole Sonship, because this is your proper gift to  God. He will accept it and give it to the Sonship, because it is
Tx:7.53  This is the true communion of the Spirit, Who sees the altar of  God in everyone and, by bringing it to your appreciation, calls
Tx:7.53  and, by bringing it to your appreciation, calls upon you to love  God and His creations. You can appreciate the Sonship only as
Tx:7.54  will affect his total perception. That includes his perception of  God, of His creations, and of his own. He will not appreciate any
Tx:7.61  Holy Spirit offers you, you cannot be vigilant for anything but  God and His Kingdom. The only reason you find this difficult is
Tx:7.62 When you believe what  God does not know, your thought seems to contradict His, and this
Tx:7.62  have repeatedly emphasized that the ego does believe it can attack  God and tries to persuade you that you have done this. If the mind
Tx:7.64  in total contradiction to the Holy Spirit and to the knowledge of  God.
Tx:7.65  only by the Holy Spirit, because your being is the knowledge of  God. Any belief that you accept which is apart from this will obscure
Tx:7.65  from this will obscure God's Voice in you and will therefore obscure  God to you. Unless you perceive His creation truly, you cannot know
Tx:7.65  you perceive His creation truly, you cannot know the Creator, since  God and His creation are not separate. The Oneness of the Creator and
Tx:7.68  sad because you are not fulfilling your function as co-creators with  God and are therefore depriving yourselves of joy. This is not God's
Tx:7.71  Holy Spirit, [the law becomes as beneficent as all of the laws of  God. Stated positively,] the law requires you to recognize only
Tx:7.72  no way for you to have it except by giving it. This is the law of  God, and it has no exceptions. What you deny you lack, not
Tx:7.75  you forget yourselves. Give only honor to the Sons of the living  God and count yourselves among them gladly.
Tx:7.76 Only honor is a fitting gift for those whom  God Himself created worthy of honor and whom He honors. Give them the
Tx:7.76  worthy of honor and whom He honors. Give them the appreciation which  God accords them always, because they are His beloved Sons in whom He
Tx:7.77 One Child of  God is the only teacher sufficiently worthy to teach another. One
Tx:7.77  all. He always teaches you the inestimable worth of every Son of  God, teaching it with infinite patience born of the [love of Him for
Tx:7.79  it is responsible for itself and being without allegiance to  God, the ego is incapable of trust. Projecting its insane belief that
Tx:7.79  brothers, who are as incapable of this as you are, are out to take  God from you. Whenever a brother attacks another, this is what he
Tx:7.79  sees your will in others. If you will to separate yourself from  God, that is what you will think others are doing to you.
Tx:7.80 You are the Will of  God. Do not accept anything else as your will, or you are denying
Tx:7.80  attack, believing you have been attacked. But see the love of  God in you, and you will see it everywhere, because it is
Tx:7.80  you are in Him with them. They are part of you, as you are part of  God. You are as lonely without understanding this as God Himself is
Tx:7.80  are part of God. You are as lonely without understanding this as  God Himself is lonely when His Sons do not know Him. The peace of God
Tx:7.80  as God Himself is lonely when His Sons do not know Him. The peace of  God is understanding this. There is only one way out of the
Tx:7.81  to the Kingdom are gifts to you. They will always be treasured by  God, because they belong to His beloved Sons who belong to Him. All
Tx:7.82  It is the law which unifies the Kingdom and keeps it in the Mind of  God. To the ego, the law is perceived as a way of getting rid of
Tx:7.84  yourself. The ego, using its own warped version of the laws of  God, utilizes the power of the mind only to defeat the mind's real
Tx:7.87  It is the distorted product of the misapplication of the laws of  God by distorted minds which are misusing their own power.
Tx:7.91 Only you can limit your creative power, but  God wills to release it. He no more wills you to deprive yourself of
Tx:7.91  withhold your gifts to the Sonship, or you withhold yourself from  God. Selfishness is of the ego, but self-fullness is of the Soul,
Tx:7.91  is of the ego, but self-fullness is of the Soul, because that is how  God created it. The Holy Spirit is the part of the mind that lies
Tx:7.92  of all its brothers is included in its own, as it is included in  God. The power of the whole Sonship and of its Creator is therefore
Tx:7.92  perfection. The ego cannot prevail against a totality which includes  God, and any totality must include God. Everything He created is
Tx:7.92  a totality which includes God, and any totality must include  God. Everything He created is given all His power, because it is part
Tx:7.93  by sharing, its will is to create. It does not wish to contain  God but to extend His Being. The extension of God's Being is the
Tx:7.93  as unfulfilled. Unless you create, you are unfulfilled; but  God does not know of unfulfillment, and therefore you must create.
Tx:7.94 The Kingdom is forever extending, because it is in the Mind of  God. You do not know your joy, because you do not know your own
Tx:7.95  your fulfillment includes them. The creations of every Son of  God are yours since every creation belongs to everyone, being created
Tx:7.96 You have not failed to add to the inheritance of the Sons of  God and thus have not failed to secure it for yourselves. If it was
Tx:7.96  have not failed to secure it for yourselves. If it was the Will of  God to give it to you, He gave it forever. If it was His Will that
Tx:7.98  not possible that you have done the same thing with the premises of  God?
Tx:7.100 Yet the function which  God Himself gave your minds through His you may deny, but you cannot

Tx:7.105 We said before that you are the Will of  God. His Will is not an idle wish, and your identification with His
Tx:7.105  by your wish. It was accomplished for you by the Will of  God, Who has not left you comfortless. His Voice will teach you how
Tx:7.105  which you have made. There is no confusion in the mind of a Son of  God whose will must be the Will of the Father, because the Father's
Tx:7.106 Miracles are in accord with the Will of  God Whose Will you do not know, because you are confused about what
Tx:7.107  This is His Will for everyone, because He speaks for the Kingdom of  God which is joy. Following Him is therefore the easiest thing in
Tx:7.108 Grace is the natural state of every Son of  God. When he is not in a state of grace, he is out of his natural
Tx:7.108  can he adapt it to him. There is no point in trying. A Son of  God is happy only when he knows he is with God. That is the only
Tx:7.108  in trying. A Son of God is happy only when he knows he is with  God. That is the only environment in which he will not experience
Tx:7.109  and judge its worth fairly. Is it worthy to be a home for a Child of  God? Does it protect his peace and shine love upon him? Does it keep
Tx:7.109  of loss? Does it teach him that this giving is his joy and that  God Himself thanks him for his giving? That is the only environment
Tx:7.109  It has been created for you, as you were created for it.  God watches over His Children and denies them nothing. Yet when they
Tx:7.110 You who could give the love of  God to everything you see and touch and remember are literally
Tx:7.110  this lesson in his heart has healed the Sonship and given thanks to  God. Everyone who learns this lesson has become the perfect teacher,
Tx:7.111 The Majesty of  God is there for you to recognize and appreciate and know.
Tx:7.111  to recognize and appreciate and know. Perceiving the Majesty of  God as your brother is to accept your own inheritance. God gives

Tx:7.112  you must have the glory you see in him. He is a co-creator with  God with you. Deny his creative power, and you are denying yours
Tx:7.112  Deny his creative power, and you are denying yours and that of  God, Who created you. You cannot deny part of truth. You do not know
Tx:7.113  God's. But you can know both. Being is known by sharing. Because  God shared His Being with you, you can know Him. But you must also
Tx:7.113  your Father, you will not know your fatherhood. The Kingdom of  God includes all His Sons and their children, who are like the Sons

Tx:8.9  make anything but sense? Is this the teacher to whom a Son of  God should turn to find himself? The ego has never given you a
Tx:8.10  That is why the ego is the denial of free will. It is never  God who coerces you because He shares His Will with you. His Voice
Tx:8.11  The Holy Spirit opposes any imprisoning of the will of a Son of  God, knowing that the will of the Son is the Father's. The Holy

Tx:8.13  direction is freedom, and His goal is God. Yet He cannot conceive of  God without you, because it is not God's Will to be without you.
Tx:8.13  freedom and this is joy. Deny yourself this and you are denying  God His Kingdom because He created you for this. When we said, “All
Tx:8.14 The Will of  God is without limit, and all power and glory lie within it. It is
Tx:8.14  all things, it made them part of itself. You are the Will of  God, because this is how you were created. Because your Creator
Tx:8.15  runs easily and gladly through the Kingdom in answer to the call of  God. This is the natural response of every Son of God to the Voice of
Tx:8.15  to the call of God. This is the natural response of every Son of  God to the Voice of his Creator, because it is the Voice for his
Tx:8.16 Glory be to  God in the highest and to you, because He has so willed it. Ask and
Tx:8.17 To fulfill the Will of  God perfectly is the only joy and peace that can be fully known,
Tx:8.17  to teach this, but you do not. That is why you need Him and why  God gave Him to you. Only His teaching will release your will to

Tx:8.19  will find yourself or lose sight of yourself. Whenever two Sons of  God meet, they are given another chance at salvation. Do not leave
Tx:8.23 You can encounter only part of yourself, because you are part of  God, Who is everything. His power and glory are everywhere, and you
Tx:8.23  is in you alone. The Holy Spirit teaches that all strength is in  God and therefore in you. God wills no one suffer. He does not

Tx:8.24 Power and glory belong to God alone. So do you.  God gives whatever belongs to Him, because He gives of Himself, and
Tx:8.28  impossible. Your reactions to me are the reactions of the world to  God. If you will accept the fact that I am with you, you are
Tx:8.28  fact that I am with you, you are denying the world and accepting  God. My will is His, and your will to hear me is the decision to
Tx:8.28  hear me is the decision to hear His Voice and abide in His Will. As  God sent me to you, so will I send you to others, and I will go to
Tx:8.31  because yours is as powerful as mine. If it were not so, the Sons of  God would be unequal. All things are possible through our joint
Tx:8.31  but my will alone cannot help you. Your will is as free as mine, and  God Himself would not go against it. I cannot will what God does
Tx:8.31  mine, and God Himself would not go against it. I cannot will what  God does not will. I can offer you my will to make yours
Tx:8.32 Nothing  God created can oppose your will, as nothing God created can oppose
Tx:8.32 Nothing God created can oppose your will, as nothing  God created can oppose His. God gave your will its power, which I
Tx:8.32  created can oppose your will, as nothing God created can oppose His.  God gave your will its power, which I can only acknowledge in honor
Tx:8.33  In our remembrance of each other lies our remembrance of  God, and in this remembrance lies your freedom, because your freedom
Tx:8.36  power of its separate parts. By not being separate, the Will of  God is established in ours and as ours. This will is invincible,
Tx:8.36  the Sonship is the perfect creator, being wholly in the likeness of  God, Whose Will it is. You cannot be exempt from it if you are to
Tx:8.36  your will from mine, you are exempting yourself from the Will of  God, which is yourself.
Tx:8.37  how can you know it without recognizing Him? The recognition of  God is the recognition of yourself. There is no separation of God
Tx:8.37  of God is the recognition of yourself. There is no separation of  God and His creation. You will learn this as you learn that there is
Tx:8.37  there is no separation of your will and mine. Let the love of  God shine upon you by your acceptance of me. My reality is yours
Tx:8.37  will with mine, you are signifying your awareness that the Will of  God is one.
Tx:8.38  truth. As we unite, we unite with Him. Glory be to the union of  God and His holy Sons! All glory lies in them because they are
Tx:8.39  toward truth. Our success in transcending the ego is guaranteed by  God, and I can share [my perfect confidence in His promise, because I
Tx:8.39  nothing can prevail against God's. Would you know the Will of  God for you? Ask it of me who knows it for you, and you will find
Tx:8.39  it for you, and you will find it. I will deny you nothing, as  God denies me nothing.
Tx:8.40 Ours is simply the journey back to  God, Who is our home. Whenever fear intrudes anywhere along the road
Tx:8.42  He will welcome us as I am welcoming you. Forget not the Kingdom of  God for anything the world has to offer. The world can add nothing to
Tx:8.42  to offer. The world can add nothing to the power and the glory of  God and His holy Sons, but it can blind the Sons to the Father if
Tx:8.42  the Father if they behold it. You cannot behold the world and know  God. Only one is true.
Tx:8.43  is not yours. If it were, you would have destroyed yourselves. Yet  God did not will the destruction of His creations, having created
Tx:8.43  denies, for over His Kingdom, it has no power. No one created by  God can find joy in anything except the eternal. That is not
Tx:8.43  of anything else, but because nothing else is worthy of him. What  God and His Sons create is eternal, and in this and this only is
Tx:8.45  God wants only His Son because His Son is His only treasure. You want
Tx:8.45  you have left your Creator, but they extend your creation as  God extended Himself to you. Can the creations of God Himself take
Tx:8.45  your creation as God extended Himself to you. Can the creations of  God Himself take joy in what is not real? And what is real except
Tx:8.45  joy in what is not real? And what is real except the creations of  God and those which are created like His? Your creations love you
Tx:8.46  could not make yourself unworthy, because you are the treasure of  God. What He values is valuable. There can be no question of
Tx:8.47  you, because His joy is in it. You cannot find joy except as  God does. His joy lay in creating you, and He extends His
Tx:8.47  his function unless he knows who he is. Creation is the Will of  God. His Will created you to create. Your will was not created
Tx:8.48  no meaning at all.] When you think you are unwilling to will with  God, you are not thinking. God's Will is thought. It cannot be
Tx:8.48  God's Will is thought. It cannot be contradicted by thought.  God does not contradict Himself, and His Sons, who are like Him,
Tx:8.49  power of God's Son lies in all of us, but not in any of us alone.  God would not have us be alone, because He does not will to be
Tx:8.50 Our creations are as holy as we are, and we are the Sons of  God Himself and therefore as holy as He is. Through our creations, we
Tx:8.50  Given this belief, you cannot understand anything. I share with  God the knowledge of the value He puts upon you. My devotion to you
Tx:8.50  of my knowledge of myself and Him. We cannot be separated. Whom  God has joined cannot be separated, and God has joined all His Sons
Tx:8.50  cannot be separated. Whom God has joined cannot be separated, and  God has joined all His Sons with Himself. Can you be separated from
Tx:8.51 The journey to  God is merely the reawakening of the knowledge of where you are
Tx:8.51  you aware of the conditions of truth, but the experience is of  God. Together we can meet its conditions, but truth will dawn upon
Tx:8.52 What  God has willed for you is yours. He has given His Will to His
Tx:8.52  lies where your treasure is, as His does. You who are beloved of  God are wholly blessed. Learn this of me, and free the holy will of
Tx:8.53  a body, you will always experience depression. When a Child of  God thinks of himself in this way, he is belittling himself and
Tx:8.54  as a means of communication. Being the communication link between  God and His separated Sons, the Holy Spirit interprets everything
Tx:8.55  the only reality anything can have is the service it can render  God on behalf of the function He has given it.
Tx:8.57  he is holy. As part of me, you are. To communicate with part of  God Himself is to reach beyond the Kingdom to its Creator through His
Tx:8.58  from you, but you have withdrawn them from Him. Let no Son of  God remain hidden for His Name's sake, because His Name is yours.
Tx:8.61  to the ego. In this sense, the body does become a temple to  God, because His Voice abides in it by directing the use to which it
Tx:8.67  salvation. You have condemned yourself, but condemnation is not of  God. Therefore, it is not true. No more are any of the results of
Tx:8.68  thought in this world, and you will open your mind to creation in  God.
Tx:8.85  is impossible since it would mean to make nothing out of what  God created. The ego despises weakness, even though it makes every
Tx:8.86  be taken literally because the Bible is about love, being about  God.
Tx:8.88  which argues for your doing it. I give you no limits because  God lays none upon you. When you limit yourself, we are not of
Tx:8.89  only to meet the conditions for meaning since meaning itself is of  God. Yet your return to meaning is essential to His because your
Tx:8.90 Fear of the Will of  God is one of the strangest beliefs that the human mind has ever
Tx:8.90  since reality can only uphold truth. The very fact that the Will of  God, which is what you are, is perceived as fearful to you
Tx:8.90  that you are afraid of what you are. It is not, then, the Will of  God of which you are afraid, but yours. Your will is not the
Tx:8.90  that is why the ego is against you. What seems to be the fear of  God is really only the fear of your own reality.
Tx:8.93  power to look into what you have hidden and perceive the Will of  God there. His perception of this will can make it real to you
Tx:8.97  is different from His, it can only decide either that there is no  God or that God's Will is fearful. The former accounts for the
Tx:8.97  many forms, the category including all doctrines which hold that  God demands sacrifices of any kind. Either basic type of insane
Tx:8.97  the atheist believes he is alone, and the martyr believes that  God is crucifying him. Both really fear abandonment and retaliation,
Tx:8.98 The atheist maintains that  God has left him, but he does not care. He will, however, become very
Tx:8.98  become very fearful and hence very angry if anyone suggests that  God has not left him. The martyr, on the other hand, is more aware
Tx:8.98  is totally incapable of giving you anything that does not come from  God. His task is not to make anything for you.] He cannot make you
Tx:8.99 Ultimately everyone must remember the Will of  God, because ultimately everyone must recognize himself. This
Tx:8.99  only seem to be fearful. Fear cannot be real without a cause, and  God is the only Cause. God is Love, and you do want Him. This
Tx:8.99  Fear cannot be real without a cause, and God is the only Cause.  God is Love, and you do want Him. This is your will. Ask for this
Tx:8.100  are real, being of your will. Would the Holy Spirit deny the Will of  God? And could He fail to recognize it in His Sons?
Tx:8.101  to be happy is totally at variance with the principle of creation.  God could not will that happiness depended on what you could
Tx:8.102 The fact that  God is love does not require belief, but it does require
Tx:8.104  God in His devotion to you created you devoted to everything and
Tx:8.106 Christ is in me, and where He is  God must be, for Christ is part of Him.
Tx:8.110 If you would know your prayers are answered, never doubt a Son of  God. Do not question him and do not confound him, for your faith in
Tx:8.110  for your faith in him is your faith in yourself. If you would know  God and His Answer, believe in me whose faith in you cannot be
Tx:8.112  your mind to his and answers you. You cannot hear the Voice for  God in yourself alone because you are not alone. And His answer is
Tx:8.112  others. It must be for your brother because it is for you. Would  God have created a Voice for you alone? Could you hear His answer
Tx:8.113 I love you for the truth in you, as  God does. Your deceptions may deceive you, but they cannot
Tx:8.114  justified. Believe in me by believing in them for the sake of what  God gave them. They will answer you if you learn to ask truth of

Tx:9.2  is at another level. He is still right, because he is a Son of  God. His ego is always wrong, no matter what it says or does.
Tx:9.7  and this can only be the arrogance of the ego. Correction is of  God, Who does not know of arrogance. The Holy Spirit forgives
Tx:9.7  know of arrogance. The Holy Spirit forgives everything, because  God created everything.
Tx:9.8  the function of healing in time, because that is what time is for.  God gave you the function to create in eternity. You do not need to
Tx:9.11  the ability to share, He translates what you have made into what  God created. If you would accomplish this through Him, you cannot
Tx:9.13  forgetting that my words make perfect sense because they come from  God. They are as sensible now as they ever were, because they speak
Tx:9.18  Only if the decision that reality is fearful is wrong can  God be right. And I assure you that God is right. Be glad, then,
Tx:9.18  is fearful is wrong can God be right. And I assure you that  God is right. Be glad, then, that you have been wrong, but this
Tx:9.18  you were. Had you remembered, you could no more have been wrong than  God can. The impossible can happen only in fantasy. When you search
Tx:9.19  Behold, my children, reality is here. It belongs to you and me and  God and is perfectly satisfying to all of us. Only this awareness
Tx:9.22  and advocate a very fearful solution. Projecting condemnation onto  God, they make Him appear retaliative and fear His retribution. What
Tx:9.25  but he does not know it himself. What, then, should happen? When  God said, “Let there be light,” there was light. Can you find light
Tx:9.27  mind will therefore answer the questioner, who must decide with  God that there is light because he sees it. And by his
Tx:9.28  one will. Trust Him, for help is His function, and He is of  God.
Tx:9.33  And as you call upon it in them, it becomes real to you.  God has but one Son, knowing them all as one. Only God Himself is
Tx:9.33  real to you. God has but one Son, knowing them all as one. Only  God Himself is more than they, but they are not less than He is.
Tx:9.33  part of you, everything we do belongs to you as well. Every Soul  God created is part of you and shares His glory with you. His
Tx:9.34  God is more than you only because He created you, but not even this
Tx:9.34  until you see it everywhere. You can know yourself only as  God knows His Son, for knowledge is shared with God. When you awake
Tx:9.34  yourself only as God knows His Son, for knowledge is shared with  God. When you awake in Him you will know your magnitude by accepting
Tx:9.37  them with you. You will never know that you are co-creator with  God until you learn that your brother is a co-creator with you.
Tx:9.38  because they will not return, but because delay of joy is needless.  God wills you perfect happiness now. Is it possible that this is
Tx:9.43  this contrast can insanity be judged as insane. With the grandeur of  God in you, you have chosen to be little and to lament your
Tx:9.44  belief you hold in terms of where it comes from. If it comes from  God, He knows it to be true. If it does not, He knows that it is
Tx:9.47  hear it. The truth about you is so lofty that nothing unworthy of  God is worthy of you. Choose, then, what you want in these terms and
Tx:9.47  want in these terms and accept nothing that you would not offer to  God as wholly fitting for Him, for you do not want anything else.
Tx:9.48 Grandeur is of  God and only of Him. Therefore, it is in you. Whenever you become
Tx:9.48  the ego automatically, because in the presence of the grandeur of  God the meaninglessness of the ego becomes perfectly apparent. Though
Tx:9.48  The grandiosity] of the ego is its alternative to the grandeur of  God. Which will you choose?
Tx:9.52  afraid of it because it is a form of attack, but your grandeur is of  God, Who created it out of His Love. From your grandeur you can only
Tx:9.52  protecting it from illusions and keeping yourself in the Mind of  God. Remember always that you cannot be anywhere except in the Mind
Tx:9.52  Remember always that you cannot be anywhere except in the Mind of  God. When you forget this, you will despair, and you will attack.
Tx:9.55  but they cannot attest to pride, because pride is not shared.  God wants you to behold what He created, because it is His joy.
Tx:9.56 Can your grandeur be arrogant when  God Himself witnesses to it? And what can be real that has no
Tx:9.56  Holy Spirit cannot use it. What He cannot transform to the Will of  God does not exist at all. Grandiosity is delusional, because it is
Tx:9.56  delusional, because it is used to replace your grandeur. Yet what  God has created cannot be replaced. God is incomplete without you,
Tx:9.56  your grandeur. Yet what God has created cannot be replaced.  God is incomplete without you, because His grandeur is total, and you
Tx:9.57 You are altogether irreplaceable in the Mind of  God. No one else can fill your part of it, and while you leave your
Tx:9.57  part of it empty, your eternal place merely waits for your return.  God, through His Voice, reminds you of it, and God Himself keeps your
Tx:9.57  for your return. God, through His Voice, reminds you of it, and  God Himself keeps your extensions safe within it. Yet you do not know
Tx:9.57  You cannot replace the Kingdom, and you cannot replace yourself.  God, Who knows your value, would not have it so, and so it is not
Tx:9.57  God's Mind and therefore not in yours alone. To accept yourself as  God created you cannot be arrogance, because it is the denial of
Tx:9.58  will tell you, but do not be afraid of His answer, for it comes from  God. It is an exalted answer because of its Source, but the Source
Tx:9.58  and so is Its answer. Listen and do not question what you hear, for  God does not deceive. He would have you replace the ego's belief in
Tx:9.60  God created nothing beside you, and nothing beside you exists, for
Tx:9.61  God does not change His Mind about you, for He is not uncertain of
Tx:9.61  That is why your will is holy. Can anything exceed the love of  God? Can anything, then, exceed your will? Nothing can reach you
Tx:9.61  your will? Nothing can reach you from beyond it because, being in  God, you encompass everything. Believe this, and you will realize
Tx:9.62 Has  God changed His Mind about me?
Tx:9.63  indeed changeless, and refuse to change your mind about yourself.  God will never decide against you, or He would be deciding against
Tx:9.64  that was created is therefore perfectly safe, because the laws of  God protect it by His Love. Any part of your mind that does not know
Tx:9.65  recognition lies the realization that your banishment is not of  God and therefore does not exist. You are at home in God, dreaming of
Tx:9.65  is not of God and therefore does not exist. You are at home in  God, dreaming of exile but perfectly capable of awakening to reality.
Tx:9.69  Spirit only your will to remember, for He retains the knowledge of  God and of yourself for you, waiting for your acceptance. Give up
Tx:9.69  everything that would stand in the way of your remembering, for  God is in your memory, and His Voice will tell you that you are part
Tx:9.70  this world is the perceptual counterpart of creating in the Kingdom.  God will do His part if you will do yours, and His return in
Tx:9.71  of defenses always constitutes an attack on truth and truth is  God, you will realize why this is always fearful. If you further
Tx:9.71  is always fearful. If you further recognize that you are part of  God, you will understand why it is that you always attack yourself
Tx:9.73  against your reality, you have made yourself vigilant against  God and His Kingdom. And it is this vigilance that makes you afraid
Tx:9.74 You have not attacked  God, and you do love Him. Can you change your reality? No one can
Tx:9.74  them. The idols are nothing, but their worshipers are the Sons of  God in sickness.
Tx:9.75  God would have them released from their sickness and returned to His
Tx:9.75  your salvation. What Comforter can there be for the sick Children of  God except His power through you? Remember that it does not matter
Tx:9.75  throughout the Sonship. Heal your brothers simply by accepting  God for them.
Tx:9.76 Your minds are not separate, and  God has only one channel for healing, because He has but one Son. His
Tx:9.76  no one is separate, and so no one is sick. To believe that a Son of  God can be sick is to believe that part of God can suffer. Love
Tx:9.76  believe that a Son of God can be sick is to believe that part of  God can suffer. Love cannot suffer, because it cannot attack. The
Tx:9.77 Do not side with sickness in the presence of a Son of  God even if he believes in it, for your acceptance of God in him
Tx:9.77  a Son of God even if he believes in it, for your acceptance of  God in him acknowledges the love of God which he has forgotten.
Tx:9.77  it, for your acceptance of God in him acknowledges the love of  God which he has forgotten. Your recognition of him as part of God
Tx:9.77  of God which he has forgotten. Your recognition of him as part of  God teaches him the truth about himself, which he is denying. Would
Tx:9.77  himself, which he is denying. Would you strengthen his denial of  God and thus lose sight of yourself? Or would you remind him of his
Tx:9.77  wholeness and remember your Creator with him? To believe a Son of  God is sick is to worship the same idol he does. God created love,
Tx:9.77  To believe a Son of God is sick is to worship the same idol he does.  God created love, not idolatry. All forms of idolatry are
Tx:9.77  be taken from you. Yet this is impossible, because you are part of  God, Who is all power.
Tx:9.78 A sick  god must be an idol, made in the image of what its maker thinks
Tx:9.78  is. And that is exactly what the ego does perceive in a Son of  God; a sick god, self-created, self-sufficient, very vicious, and
Tx:9.78  that is exactly what the ego does perceive in a Son of God; a sick  god, self-created, self-sufficient, very vicious, and very
Tx:9.79  in the Kingdom, but there is great appreciation for every Soul which  God created because of the calm knowledge that each one is part of
Tx:9.79  When I said, “My peace I give unto you,” I meant it. Peace came from  God through me to you. It was for you, although you did not ask.
Tx:9.80  denial of illusion, and sickness is an illusion. Yet every Son of  God has the power to deny illusions anywhere in the Kingdom merely
Tx:9.81  heard. But have no other gods before Him, or you will not hear.  God is not jealous of the gods you make, but you are. You would
Tx:9.81  onto them the fearful fact that you made them to replace  God. Yet when they seem to speak to you, remember that nothing can
Tx:9.81  when they seem to speak to you, remember that nothing can replace  God, and whatever replacements you have attempted are nothing.
Tx:9.82  And in that awareness you are healed. You will hear the  god you listen to. You made the god of sickness, and by making
Tx:9.82  are healed. You will hear the god you listen to. You made the  god of sickness, and by making him, you made yourself able to hear
Tx:9.82  you signify your willingness to accept only the eternal. If  God has but one Son, there is but one God. You share reality with
Tx:9.82  accept only the eternal. If God has but one Son, there is but one  God. You share reality with Him, because reality is not divided. To
Tx:9.84 Only at the altar of  God will you find peace. And this altar is in you, because God put it
Tx:9.84  altar of God will you find peace. And this altar is in you, because  God put it there. His Voice still calls you to return, and He will be
Tx:9.84  heard when you place no other gods before Him. You can give up the  god of sickness for your brothers; in fact, you would have to do so
Tx:9.84  as God's replacement. He is the belief that you can choose which  god is real. Although it is perfectly clear that this has nothing to
Tx:9.85  be reconciled. Sickness and perfection are irreconcilable. If  God created you perfect, you are perfect. If you believe you can be
Tx:9.85  you believe you can be sick, you have placed other gods before Him.  God is not at war with the god of sickness you made, but you are.
Tx:9.85  you have placed other gods before Him. God is not at war with the  god of sickness you made, but you are. He is the symbol of willing
Tx:9.85  you made, but you are. He is the symbol of willing against  God, and you are afraid of him, because he cannot be reconciled
Tx:9.88  their laws cannot be understood together. The laws of  God work only for your good, and there are no other laws beside
Tx:9.88  His. Everything else is merely lawless and therefore chaotic. Yet  God Himself has protected everything He created by His laws.
Tx:9.89  free to give up freedom, but only to deny it. You cannot do what  God did not intend, because what He did not intend does not happen.
Tx:9.89  it of them. All this has never been. Nothing but the laws of  God has ever operated, and nothing except His Will will ever be. You
Tx:9.90 When you have experienced the protection of  God, the making of idols becomes inconceivable. There are no strange
Tx:9.90  becomes inconceivable. There are no strange images in the Mind of  God, and what is not in His Mind cannot be in yours because you are
Tx:9.90  and your reality affect truth at all. Peace is yours because  God created you. And He created nothing else.
Tx:9.91 The miracle is the act of a Son of  God who has laid aside all false gods and who calls on his brothers
Tx:9.91  power of one mind can shine into another, because all the lamps of  God were lit by the same spark. It is everywhere, and it is eternal.
Tx:9.92 In many only the spark remains, for the Great Rays are obscured. Yet  God has kept the spark alive so that the rays can never be completely
Tx:9.92  it is the remaining call of creation. Put all your faith in it, and  God Himself will answer you.
Tx:9.93 The rituals of the  god of sickness are strange and very demanding. Joy is never
Tx:9.93  sign of allegiance to him. Depression means that you have foresworn  God. Men are afraid of blasphemy, but they do not know what it means.
Tx:9.93  but they do not know what it means. They do not realize that to deny  God is to deny their own identity, and in this sense the wages of
Tx:9.94 Do not forget, however, that to deny  God will inevitably result in projection, and you will believe that
Tx:9.94  and whenever you see your brothers without it, you are denying  God.
Tx:9.95 Allegiance to the denial of  God is the ego's religion. The god of sickness obviously demands the
Tx:9.95 Allegiance to the denial of God is the ego's religion. The  god of sickness obviously demands the denial of health, because

Tx:9.95  seem like many different things he is but one idea—the denial of  God.
Tx:9.96  Son think he was fatherless, and out of his depression, he made the  god of depression. This was his alternative to joy, because he would
Tx:9.98 Son of  God, you have not sinned, but you have been much mistaken. Yet this
Tx:9.98  but you have been much mistaken. Yet this can be corrected, and  God will help you, knowing that you could not sin against Him. You
Tx:9.99  you, and you will learn of Him if you hear aright. The love of  God is in everything He created, for His Son is everywhere. Look with
Tx:9.99  for His Son is everywhere. Look with peace upon your brothers, and  God will come rushing into your heart in gratitude for your gift to
Tx:9.100 Do not look to the  god of sickness for healing but only to the God of love, for healing
Tx:9.100 Do not look to the god of sickness for healing but only to the  God of love, for healing is the acknowledgment of Him. When you
Tx:9.100  is blasphemy, for it means that you are looking without love on  God and His creation, from which He cannot be separated. Only the
Tx:9.100  Only the eternal can be loved, for love does not die. What is of  God is His forever, and you are of God. Would He allow Himself to
Tx:9.100  love does not die. What is of God is His forever, and you are of  God. Would He allow Himself to suffer? And would He offer His Son
Tx:9.101 If you will accept yourself as  God created you, you will be incapable of suffering. Yet to do this,
Tx:9.102 You do not realize how much you have denied yourself, and how much  God in His love would not have it so. Yet He would not interfere with
Tx:9.102  were not free. To interfere with you would be to attack Himself, and  God is not insane. When you denied Him, you were insane. Would you
Tx:9.102  Him, you were insane. Would you have Him share your insanity?  God will never cease to love His Son, and His Son will never cease to
Tx:9.102  the condition of His Son's creation, fixed forever in the Mind of  God. To know that is sanity. To deny it is insanity. God gave Himself
Tx:9.102  in the Mind of God. To know that is sanity. To deny it is insanity.  God gave Himself to you in your creation, and His gifts are eternal.
Tx:9.103  was created for you for the misery you have made for yourselves.  God has given you the means for undoing what you have made. Listen,
Tx:9.104 If  God knows His Children as wholly sinless, it is blasphemous to
Tx:9.104  as wholly sinless, it is blasphemous to perceive them as guilty. If  God knows His Children as wholly without pain, it is blasphemous to
Tx:9.104  without pain, it is blasphemous to perceive suffering anywhere. If  God knows His Children to be wholly joyous, it is blasphemous to feel
Tx:9.104  blasphemy may take are refusals to accept creation as it is. If  God created His Son perfect, that is how you must learn to see him to
Tx:9.105 Do not perceive anything  God did not create, or you are denying Him. His is the only
Tx:9.105  you believe that the sick images you perceive are the Sons of  God.
Tx:9.106 Only if you accept the Fatherhood of  God will you have anything, because His fatherhood gave you
Tx:9.106  to you to be desirable, the concept of choice, which is not of  God, will remain with you. While this is not true in eternity, it
Tx:10.1 Either  God or the ego is insane. If you will examine the evidence on both
Tx:10.1  both sides fairly, you will realize that this must be true. Neither  God nor the ego proposes a partial thought system. Each is internally
Tx:10.3 You have made by projection, but  God has created by extension. The cornerstone of God's creation is
Tx:10.4 My brother, you are part of  God and part of me. When you have at last looked at the ego's
Tx:10.5  For in this lies the beginning of knowledge, the foundation on which  God will help you build again the thought system which you share with
Tx:10.5  reality, you restore it to yourself. For you dwell in the Mind of  God with your brother, for God Himself did not will to be alone.
Tx:10.5  For you dwell in the Mind of God with your brother, for  God Himself did not will to be alone.
Tx:10.6  limits must be everywhere. There are no beginnings and no endings in  God, Whose universe is Himself. Can you exclude yourself from the
Tx:10.6  is Himself. Can you exclude yourself from the universe or from  God, Who is the universe? I and my Father are one with you, for
Tx:10.6  you, for you are part of us. Do you really believe that part of  God can be missing or lost to Him?
Tx:10.7 If you were not part of  God, His Will would not be unified. Is this conceivable? Can part of
Tx:10.8  The laws of the universe do not permit contradiction. What holds for  God holds for you. If you believe you are absent from God, you
Tx:10.8  holds for God holds for you. If you believe you are absent from  God, you will believe that He is absent from you.
Tx:10.9  is meaningless without you, and you are meaningless without  God. There is no end to God and His Son, for we are the universe.
Tx:10.9  you, and you are meaningless without God. There is no end to  God and His Son, for we are the universe. God is not incomplete,
Tx:10.9  There is no end to God and His Son, for we are the universe.  God is not incomplete, and He is not childless. Because He did not
Tx:10.9  to see. Look upon the glory of His creation, and you will learn what  God has kept for you.
Tx:10.10  God has given you a place in His Mind which is yours forever. Yet you
Tx:10.10  given you. Could you be alone there if it was given you because  God did not will to be alone? God's Mind cannot be lessened. It can
Tx:10.11 Could any part of  God be without His love and could any part of His love be
Tx:10.11  be without His love and could any part of His love be contained?  God is your heritage because His one gift is Himself. How can you
Tx:10.11  to give as He gives. Your fatherhood and your Father are one.  God willed to create, and your will is His. It follows, then, that
Tx:10.13  it is possible for God's Will and yours to conflict.  God then may seem to demand of you what you do not want to give and
Tx:10.13  you do not want to give and thus deprive you of what you want. Would  God, who wants only your will, be capable of this? Your will is His
Tx:10.15  Holy Spirit only because He speaks for you. He is the Voice for  God, but never forget that God did not will to be alone. He shares
Tx:10.15  He speaks for you. He is the Voice for God, but never forget that  God did not will to be alone. He shares His Will with you; He does
Tx:10.16  from this, and every healing thought brings it closer. The Son of  God has both Father and Son because he is both Father and Son. To
Tx:10.16  you know there is but one will. Yet when you attack any part of  God and His Kingdom, your understanding is not perfect, and what you
Tx:10.17  miracle which you accomplish speaks to you of the Fatherhood of  God. Every healing thought which you accept, either from your brother
Tx:10.19  His own complete will and make yours whole. What can the Son of  God not accomplish with the Fatherhood of God in him? And yet the
Tx:10.19  What can the Son of God not accomplish with the Fatherhood of  God in him? And yet the invitation must come from you, for you have
Tx:10.20  You can safely trust His patience, for He cannot leave a part of  God. Yet you need far more than patience.
Tx:10.21  is to be like Him, and He has given Himself to you. You who have  God must be as God, for His function became yours with His
Tx:10.21  Him, and He has given Himself to you. You who have God must be as  God, for His function became yours with His gift. Invite this
Tx:10.21  minds, and let nothing that will obscure it enter. The Guest whom  God sent you will teach you how to do this if you but recognize the
Tx:10.22 Would you be hostage to the ego or host to  God? You will accept only whom you invite. You are free to
Tx:10.22  do not be satisfied with imaginary comforters, for the Comforter of  God is in you.
Tx:10.23  of Him, for He knows no attack and His peace surrounds you silently.  God is very quiet, for there is no conflict in Him. Conflict is the
Tx:10.23  it does not see whom it attacks. Yet it always attacks the Son of  God, and the Son of God is you.
Tx:10.23  it attacks. Yet it always attacks the Son of God, and the Son of  God is you.
Tx:10.24  own. The Kingdom is his, and yet he wanders homelessly. At home in  God, he is lonely, and amid all his brothers, he is friendless. Would
Tx:10.24  he is lonely, and amid all his brothers, he is friendless. Would  God let this be real if He did not will to be alone Himself? And if
Tx:10.24  because it is not true of Him. Oh, my children, if you knew what  God wills for you, your joy would be complete! And what He wills
Tx:10.25  with joy that it will leap into Heaven and into the Presence of  God. I cannot tell you what this will be like, for your hearts are
Tx:10.25  are not ready. Yet I can tell you and remind you often that what  God wills for Himself He wills for you, and what He wills for you
Tx:10.26  hard, but it is very different. Yours is the way of pain, of which  God knows nothing. That way is hard indeed and very lonely. Fear
Tx:10.26  the dark companions, for they are not fit companions for the Son of  God, who was created of light and in light. The Great Light
Tx:10.27  God hides nothing from His Son, even though His Son would hide
Tx:10.27  from His Son, even though His Son would hide himself. Yet the Son of  God cannot hide his glory, for God wills him to be glorious and gave
Tx:10.27  would hide himself. Yet the Son of God cannot hide his glory, for  God wills him to be glorious and gave him the light that shines in
Tx:10.27  him the light that shines in him. You will never lose your way, for  God leads you. When you wander, you but undertake a journey which is
Tx:10.29  temple and find it waiting for you. But be holy in the Presence of  God, or you will not know that you are there. For what is unlike God
Tx:10.29  of God, or you will not know that you are there. For what is unlike  God cannot enter His Mind because it was not His Thought and
Tx:10.30  in the temple with Him because it is your will not to be alone.  God blessed His Son forever. If you will bless him in time, you will
Tx:10.30  in time, you will be in eternity. Time cannot separate you from  God if you use it on behalf of the eternal.
Tx:10.31  all your understanding is lost because you are looking on what  God created as yourself without love. And since what He created is
Tx:10.32 Could you try to make  God homeless and know that you are at home? Can the Son deny the
Tx:10.32  power of your will cannot be lessened without the intervention of  God against it, and any limitation on your power is not the Will of
Tx:10.32  against it, and any limitation on your power is not the Will of  God. Therefore, look only to the power that God gave to save you,
Tx:10.32  is not the Will of God. Therefore, look only to the power that  God gave to save you, remembering that it is yours because it is
Tx:10.33  share, and your own Soul must be unknown to you. Every altar to  God is part of your Soul because the light He created is one with
Tx:10.33  you bring him back, so will your mind return. That is the law of  God for the protection of the wholeness of His Son.
Tx:10.36  and it is impossible for you to be unable to enter the place where  God would have you be. But love yourself with the love of Christ, for
Tx:10.36  for you, for while I live it cannot be shut, and I live forever.  God is my life and yours, and nothing is denied by God to His Son.
Tx:10.36  I live forever. God is my life and yours, and nothing is denied by  God to His Son.
Tx:10.37 At God's altar Christ waits for the restoration of Himself in you.  God knows His Son as wholly blameless as Himself, and He is
Tx:10.37  yourself and of His wholeness as yours. For Christ is the Son of  God who lives in his Creator and shines with His glory. Christ is the
Tx:10.37  His glory. Christ is the extension of the love and the loveliness of  God, as perfect as his Creator and at peace with Him.
Tx:10.38 Blessed is the Son of  God, whose radiance is of his Father and whose glory he wills to
Tx:10.38  will not know the Father or the Son. Peace be unto you who rest in  God and in whom the whole Sonship rests.
Tx:10.44  with your true nature. We once said that to will contrary to  God is wishful thinking and not real willing. His Will is one because
Tx:10.44  experience, then, is between the ego's idle wishes and the Will of  God, which you share. Can this be a real conflict?
Tx:10.45  Your whole creative function lies in your complete dependence on  God, Whose function He shares with you. By His Willingness to
Tx:10.45  in ego autonomy is costing you the knowledge of your dependence on  God in which your freedom lies. The ego sees all dependency as
Tx:10.45  dependency as threatening and has twisted even your longing for  God into a means of establishing itself. But do not be deceived by
Tx:10.49 Your recognition that whatever seems to separate you from  God is only fear, regardless of the form it takes and quite apart
Tx:10.51  God is as dependent on you as you are on Him because His autonomy
Tx:10.52  know that only attack could produce fear from which the love of  God completely protects them.
Tx:10.57  not exist, yet where the Son is, the Father must be. Accept what  God does not deny, and He will demonstrate its truth. The
Tx:10.57  not deny, and He will demonstrate its truth. The witnesses for  God stand in His light and behold what He created. Their silence is
Tx:10.61  of God's Son. For until Christ comes into His own, the Son of  God will see himself as fatherless.
Tx:10.62  resurrection and your life. You live in me because you live in  God. And everyone lives in you, as you live in everyone. Can you,
Tx:10.62  And can you perceive it in yourself and not perceive it in  God? Believe in the resurrection because it has been accomplished,
Tx:10.62  as true now as it will ever be, for the resurrection is the Will of  God, which knows no time and no exceptions. But make no exceptions
Tx:10.63  the power of the devotion of God's Son nor the power of the  god he worships over him. For he places himself at the altar of his
Tx:10.63  he worships over him. For he places himself at the altar of his  god, whether it be the god he made or the God who created him. That
Tx:10.63  For he places himself at the altar of his god, whether it be the  god he made or the God who created him. That is why his slavery is as
Tx:10.63  at the altar of his god, whether it be the god he made or the  God who created him. That is why his slavery is as complete as his
Tx:10.63  slavery is as complete as his freedom, for he will obey only the  god he accepts. The god of the crucifixion demands that he crucify,
Tx:10.63  as his freedom, for he will obey only the god he accepts. The  god of the crucifixion demands that he crucify, and his worshipers
Tx:10.63  they crucify themselves, believing that the power of the Son of  God is born of sacrifice and pain. The God of the resurrection
Tx:10.63  that the power of the Son of God is born of sacrifice and pain. The  God of the resurrection demands nothing, for He does not will to
Tx:10.64  be thrust upon you, but it can be offered you through the grace of  God. And you can accept it by His grace, for God is gracious to
Tx:10.64  through the grace of God. And you can accept it by His grace, for  God is gracious to His Son, accepting him without question as His
Tx:10.64  them in their resurrection, for otherwise you will not awake in  God, safely surrounded by what is yours forever.
Tx:10.65  of God's Son and taken the last thorn from his forehead. The love of  God surrounds His Son, whom the god of the crucifixion condemns.
Tx:10.65  thorn from his forehead. The love of God surrounds His Son, whom the  god of the crucifixion condemns. Teach not that I died in vain. Teach
Tx:10.65  work of the redemption, in which everyone has a part of equal value.  God does not judge His blameless Son. Having given Himself to him,
Tx:10.66  your own head. Yet you cannot crucify God's Son, for the Will of  God cannot die. His Son has been redeemed from his own crucifixion,
Tx:10.66  from his own crucifixion, and you cannot assign to death whom  God has given eternal life. The dream of crucifixion still lies heavy
Tx:10.66  what you see in dreams is not reality. While you perceive the Son of  God as crucified, you are asleep. And as long as you believe that
Tx:10.68  equal value, and their equality is their oneness. The whole power of  God is in every part of Him, and nothing contradictory to His Will is
Tx:10.68  or small. What does not exist has no size and no measure. To  God all things are possible. And to Christ it is given to be like
Tx:10.69  been created by the Father, for the world is not as you see it.  God created only the eternal, and everything you see is perishable.
Tx:10.70 Every loving thought that the Son of  God ever had is eternal. Those which his mind perceived in this world
Tx:10.72  You do not know the difference between what you have made and what  God created, and so you do not know the difference between what you
Tx:10.73  real world is to believe that you can know yourself. You can know  God because it is His Will to be known. The real world is all that
Tx:10.77 No one can withhold truth except from himself. Yet  God will not refuse the answer He gave you. Ask, then, for what is
Tx:10.77  do not defend yourself against truth. You made the problem which  God has answered. Ask yourselves, therefore, but one simple question—
Tx:10.80  of you. Yet only by asking will you learn that nothing that is of  God demands anything of you. God gives; He does not take.
Tx:10.80  you learn that nothing that is of God demands anything of you.  God gives; He does not take.
Tx:10.81  in return. For what is yours is everything, and you share it with  God. This is its reality. Would the Holy Spirit, Who wills only to
Tx:10.82  of the Holy Spirit is to ask for deprivation. Little Children of  God, you do not understand your Father. You believe in a world that
Tx:10.82  Do not deny it to yourself, for it can only free you. Nothing of  God will enslave His Son, whom He created free and whose freedom is
Tx:10.83 Blessed are you who will ask the truth of  God without fear, for only thus can you learn that His answer is
Tx:10.83  learn that His answer is the release from fear. Beautiful Child of  God, you are asking only for what I promised you. Do you believe I
Tx:10.83  have nothing which they do not share. Ask for truth of any Son of  God, and you have asked it of me. No one of us but has the answer in
Tx:10.84  Christ, for Christ is his healing and yours. Christ is the Son of  God, who is in no way separate from His Father, whose every thought
Tx:10.85  recognized, and because no one is without your help, the Help of  God goes with you everywhere. As you become willing to accept
Tx:10.87  you are offended in yourself and are condemning God's Son, whom  God condemneth not. Let the Holy Spirit remove all offense of God's
Tx:10.87  and use it for all He sends you, for He wills to heal the Son of  God in whom He is not deceived.
Tx:10.90  your fears for truth if the exchange is yours for the asking? For if  God is not deceived in you, you can be deceived only in yourself.
Tx:10.90  of yourself of the Holy Spirit, who will teach you that, as part of  God, deceit in you is impossible. When you perceive yourself
Tx:11.7  for you cannot help yourselves. But hear his call for the help of  God, and you will recognize your own need for the Father.
Tx:11.8  of your need, then, hear every call for help as what it is, so  God can answer you.
Tx:11.15  the light, it has none, for it has power only because the Son of  God gave power to it. He must himself withdraw that power,
Tx:11.15  himself withdraw that power, remembering that all power is of  God. You can remember this for all the Sonship. Do not allow your
Tx:11.15  his forgetfulness is yours. But your remembering is his, for  God cannot be remembered alone. This is what you have forgotten. To
Tx:11.15  your brother as the healing of yourself is thus the way to remember  God. For you forgot your brothers with Him, and God's answer to
Tx:11.19 You still want what  God wills, and no nightmare can defeat a Child of God in his
Tx:11.19  still want what God wills, and no nightmare can defeat a Child of  God in his purpose. For your purpose was given you by God, and you
Tx:11.19  a Child of God in his purpose. For your purpose was given you by  God, and you must accomplish it because it is His Will. Awake and
Tx:11.23  how to use what He knows. Whatever is revealed to Him that is not of  God is gone. Yet you must reveal it to yourself in perfect
Tx:11.27  for salvation, as you are. Poverty is of the ego and never of  God. No “outrageous” request can be made of one who recognizes what
Tx:11.32 We once said that  God so loved the world that He gave it to His only-begotten Son. God
Tx:11.32  God so loved the world that He gave it to His only-begotten Son.  God does love the real world, and those who perceive its reality
Tx:11.32  death is not of the real world, in which everything is eternal.  God gave you the real world in exchange for the one you made out of
Tx:11.32  For if you could really separate yourselves from the Mind of  God, you would die, and the world you perceive is a world of
Tx:11.34  must end. For in this same place also lies salvation. The altar of  God where Christ abideth is there.
Tx:11.35  and there you will learn to see truly. From this place, where  God and His Son dwell in peace and where you are welcome, you will
Tx:11.35  the Holy Spirit to project the real world to you from the altar of  God.
Tx:11.41  nor sold. There can be no disinherited parts of the Sonship, for  God is whole, and all His extensions are like Him.
Tx:11.52  properly understood, is limitless because it will lead you to  God. You can teach the way to Him and learn it if you follow the
Tx:11.54  Him of His Son, and He never ceases to remind His Son of the Father.  God is in your memory because of Him. You chose to forget your
Tx:11.56  would awaken them from the sleep of forgetting to the remembering of  God. Christ's eyes are open, and He will look upon whatever you see
Tx:11.57 The Holy Spirit keeps the vision of Christ for every Son of  God who sleeps. In His sight the Son of God is perfect, and He longs
Tx:11.57  of Christ for every Son of God who sleeps. In His sight the Son of  God is perfect, and He longs to share His vision with you. He will
Tx:11.57  share His vision with you. He will show you the real world because  God gave you Heaven. Through Him your Father calls His Son to
Tx:11.59 Every Child of  God is one in Christ, for his Being is in Christ as Christ's is in
Tx:11.59  God is one in Christ, for his Being is in Christ as Christ's is in  God. Christ's love for you is His love for His Father, which He knows
Tx:11.59  become so similar that they share the unification of the laws of  God.
Tx:11.60  the separation is the reinstatement of knowledge. At the altar of  God, the holy perception of God's Son becomes so enlightened that
Tx:11.60  in the Mind of the Father and becomes one with it. Very gently does  God shine upon Himself, loving the extension of Himself which is His
Tx:11.60  His Son. The world has no purpose as it blends into the purpose of  God. For the real world has slipped quietly into Heaven, where
Tx:11.60  been. There the Redeemer and the redeemed join in perfect love of  God and of each other. Heaven is your home, and being in God, it must
Tx:11.60  love of God and of each other. Heaven is your home, and being in  God, it must also be in you.
Tx:11.61  the Holy Spirit sends you for your blessing. In every Child of  God His blessing lies, and in your blessing of the Children of God
Tx:11.61  of God His blessing lies, and in your blessing of the Children of  God is His blessing to you.
Tx:11.64  in Heaven is creation, so your function on earth is healing.  God shares His function with you in Heaven, and the Holy Spirit
Tx:11.71  of your mind is the loveliest of God's creations. Coming only from  God, its power and grandeur could only bring you peace if you really
Tx:11.72  will see me as you look within, and we will look upon the world as  God created it together. Through the eyes of Christ, only the real
Tx:11.74  it fully believes that you are a criminal, as deserving of death as  God knows you are deserving of life. The death penalty never leaves
Tx:11.75 The ego is not a traitor to  God to Whom treachery is impossible, but it is a traitor to you who
Tx:11.75  of the ego, which tells you that you have been treacherous to  God and therefore deserve death. You will think that death comes
Tx:11.75  and therefore deserve death. You will think that death comes from  God and not from the ego because, by confusing yourself with the
Tx:11.75  the ego, you believe that you want death. And from what you want,  God does not save you.
Tx:11.77 Do you really believe that you can kill the Son of  God? The Father has hidden His Son safely within Himself and kept him
Tx:11.80  Father's love you can never forget Him, for no one can forget what  God Himself placed in his memory. You can deny it, but you cannot
Tx:11.80  the only truth, and what you have not heard is the only answer.  God would reunite you with yourself and did not abandon you in your
Tx:11.81  to ask for this memory, and you will remember. Yet the memory of  God cannot shine in a mind which has made it invisible and wants to
Tx:11.81  has made it invisible and wants to keep it so. For the memory of  God can dawn only in a mind that wills to remember and that has
Tx:11.81  upon what you have made of it and rejoice that it is not so. Son of  God, be not content with nothing! What is not real cannot be seen
Tx:11.81  with nothing! What is not real cannot be seen and has no value.  God could not offer His Son what has no value, nor could His Son
Tx:11.83  God's Being with Him could never be content without reality. What  God did not give you has no power over you, and the attraction of
Tx:11.84 The real world was given you by  God in loving exchange for the world you made and which you see.
Tx:11.86  ground and seem to be no more. Not one of them but has thought that  God is cruel.
Tx:11.87 If this were the real world,  God would be cruel. For no father could subject his children to
Tx:11.90 In this strange world which you have made, the Son of  God has sinned. How could you see him, then? By making him
Tx:11.91  behind you and will disappear. As long as you believe the Son of  God is guilty, you will walk along this carpet, believing that it
Tx:11.92 The journey which the Son of  God has set himself is foolish indeed, but the journey on which his
Tx:11.92  with you. He has always undone everything unworthy of the Son of  God, for such was His mission, given Him by God. And what God gives
Tx:11.92  unworthy of the Son of God, for such was His mission, given Him by  God. And what God gives has always been.
Tx:11.92  the Son of God, for such was His mission, given Him by God. And what  God gives has always been.
Tx:11.93 You will see me as you learn the Son of  God is guiltless. He has always sought his guiltlessness, and he has
Tx:11.93  only a matter of time, and time is but an illusion. For the Son of  God is guiltless now, and the brightness of his purity shines
Tx:11.95  that there is no journey, but only an awakening. The Son of  God, who sleepeth not, has kept faith with his Father for you.
Tx:11.95  There is no road to travel on and no time to travel through. For  God waits not for His Son in time, being forever unwilling to be
Tx:11.97  of need for expiation. Accepting the guiltlessness of the Son of  God as yours is therefore God's way of reminding you of His Son and
Tx:11.97  God's way of reminding you of His Son and what he is in truth. For  God has never condemned His Son, and being guiltless, he is eternal.
Tx:11.99  that it has never been. As He looks upon the guiltless Son of  God, he knows this is true. And being true for you, you cannot
Tx:12.1  it intolerable, since guilt stands in the way of your remembering  God, Whose pull is so strong that you cannot resist it. On this
Tx:12.2  have failed. Yet you have no idea that you are failing the Son of  God by seeing him as guilty. Believing you are no longer you, you do
Tx:12.3  God's Son can ultimately satisfy it. It does not know who the Son of  God is because it is blind. Yet let it perceive guiltlessness
Tx:12.6  him, and the reason it gave was that guiltlessness is blasphemous to  God. To the ego the ego is god, and guiltlessness must be
Tx:12.6  that guiltlessness is blasphemous to God. To the ego the ego is  god, and guiltlessness must be interpreted as the final guilt which
Tx:12.9  be yours. For the redeemed son of man is the guiltless Son of  God, and to recognize him is your redemption.
Tx:12.11  is of redemption. Under the ego's dark foundation is the memory of  God, and it is of this that you are really afraid. For this memory
Tx:12.12  stronger than it will ever be, is your intense and burning love of  God, and His for you. This is what you really want to hide.
Tx:12.13  then, seems to be attacking your fortress, for you would shut out  God, and He does not will to be excluded.
Tx:12.14  and that attack is grandeur. You think you have made a world which  God would destroy; and by loving Him, which you do, you would throw
Tx:12.15  not. You would rather be slaves of the crucifixion than Sons of  God in redemption. For your individual death is more valued than
Tx:12.15  you is not so dear as what you made. You are more afraid of  God than of the ego, and love cannot enter where it is not welcome.
Tx:12.17  and cleanse it of its littleness, restoring it to the magnitude of  God.
Tx:12.20  minds. You were at peace until you asked for special favor. And  God did not give it, for the request was alien to Him, and you could
Tx:12.21  seek a place of darkness where it can believe it is where it is not.  God did not allow this to happen. Yet you demanded that it happen
Tx:12.22 To “single out” is to “make alone” and thus make lonely.  God did not do this to you. Could He set you apart, knowing that
Tx:12.38  and you see only your own split mind everywhere you look.  God calls you and you do not hear, for you are preoccupied with your
Tx:12.40  perceiving them as witnesses to your reality, which you share with  God. I am with them as I am with you, and we will draw them from
Tx:12.40  and gladness is what we should offer Him. For every Son of  God is given you to whom God gave Himself. And it is God to Whom
Tx:12.40  we should offer Him. For every Son of God is given you to whom  God gave Himself. And it is God to Whom you must offer them to
Tx:12.40  every Son of God is given you to whom God gave Himself. And it is  God to Whom you must offer them to recognize His gift to you.
Tx:12.64  give this sad world over and exchange your errors for the peace of  God is but your will. And Christ will always offer you the Will
Tx:12.64  is but your will. And Christ will always offer you the Will of  God in recognition that you share it with Him.
Tx:12.65  and nothing else comes nigh unto him. He is as safe from pain as  God Himself, Who watches over him in everything. The world about him
Tx:12.65  over him in everything. The world about him shines with love because  God placed him in Himself where pain is not and love surrounds him
Tx:12.66 The peace of  God passeth your understanding only in the past. Yet here it is,
Tx:12.66  in the past. Yet here it is, and you can understand it now.  God loves His Son forever, and His Son returns his Father's love
Tx:12.66  will fade. But this one thing is always yours, being the gift of  God unto His Son. Your one reality was given you, and by it God
Tx:12.66  of God unto His Son. Your one reality was given you, and by it  God created you as one with Him.
Tx:12.74  be not restless, for you undertake a quiet journey to the peace of  God, where He would have you be in quietness.
Tx:12.75  back. We walk together on the way to quietness that is the gift of  God. Hold me dear, for what except your brothers can you need? We
Tx:12.76  you that you have taught how to remember you. Thus does the Son of  God give thanks unto his Father for his purity.
Tx:13.2  is separate. You are an aspect of knowledge, being in the Mind of  God, Who knows you. All knowledge must be yours, for in you is
Tx:13.3  making transfer to it possible. Yet the last step must be taken by  God because the last step in your redemption, which seems to be in
Tx:13.3  redemption, which seems to be in the future, was accomplished by  God in your creation. The separation has not interrupted it. Creation
Tx:13.3  of reality can be seen in everything and everywhere. Yet only  God can gather them together by crowning them as one with the final
Tx:13.4  in the mind of both and knowing that mind is one. He is a Thought of  God, and God has given Him to you because He has no Thoughts He does
Tx:13.4  of both and knowing that mind is one. He is a Thought of God, and  God has given Him to you because He has no Thoughts He does not
Tx:13.5  that it is one forever. Every miracle you offer to the Son of  God is but the true perception of one aspect of the whole. Though
Tx:13.6  aspect of reality you see blends quietly into the One Reality of  God. The only miracle that ever was is God's most holy Son, created
Tx:13.7  gift to everyone and everywhere, for miracles offered the Son of  God through the Holy Spirit attune you to reality. The Holy Spirit
Tx:13.8  suddenly time will be over, and we will all unite in the eternity of  God the Father. The holy light you saw outside yourself in every
Tx:13.9  fatherhood in Heaven. You are the witnesses to the Fatherhood of  God, and He has given you the power to create the witnesses to
Tx:13.9  deny the witnesses to] your fatherhood in Heaven. The miracle which  God created is perfect, as are the miracles which you created in
Tx:13.10 Yet in this world, your perfection is unwitnessed.  God knows it, but you do not, and so you do not share His witness
Tx:13.10  it. Nor do you witness unto Him, for reality is witnessed to as one.  God waits your witness to His Son and to Himself. The miracles you do
Tx:13.10  to what you do not know, and as they reach the gates of Heaven,  God will open them. For never would He leave His own beloved Son
Tx:13.11  so they must condemn. Between the future and the past, the laws of  God must intervene if you would free yourselves. Atonement stands
Tx:13.14  become as true for you as innocence. You do not believe the Son of  God is guiltless because you see the past and see him not. When you
Tx:13.15  he is right in his delusion? The idea that the guiltless Son of  God can attack himself and make himself guilty is insane. In any
Tx:13.16  unto yourself. In every condemnation that you offer the Son of  God lies the conviction of your own guilt. If you would have the
Tx:13.16  you. Remember always that it is impossible to condemn the Son of  God in part. Those whom you see as guilty become the witnesses to
Tx:13.19  for He knows not of differences. Can you see guilt where  God knows there is perfect innocence? You can deny His knowledge,
Tx:13.26  to guilt, and see no reason for it. The Holy Spirit does what  God would have Him do and has always done so. He has seen separation,
Tx:13.27  to make what will be now. As yet it is not now. The Son of  God believes that he is lost in guilt, alone in a dark world where
Tx:13.28  His Will is like His Father's, and He offers mercy to every Child of  God, as He would have you do.
Tx:13.29  and see the light of love shining as steadily and as surely as  God Himself has always loved His Son. And as His son loves Him.
Tx:13.29  were. Your guilt is without reason, because it is not in the Mind of  God where you are. And this is reason, which the Holy Spirit
Tx:13.30  your relationships and making them unreal. You can love only as  God loves. Seek not to love unlike Him, for there is no love apart
Tx:13.30  who condemns a brother can see himself as guiltless in the peace of  God. If he is guiltless and in peace and sees it not, he is
Tx:13.31 Behold the Son of  God and look upon his purity and be still. In quiet look upon his
Tx:13.33  on what I treasure. The difference is that I love only what  God loves with me, and because of this, I treasure you beyond the
Tx:13.33  the value that you set on yourselves, even unto the worth that  God has placed upon you. I love all that He created, and all my faith
Tx:13.33  let me offer to the Kingdom in honor of its wholeness, which is of  God.
Tx:13.34  the gates of Heaven where we will surely enter in our blamelessness.  God loves you. Could I, then, lack faith in you and love Him
Tx:13.36  God would not have His Son embattled, and so His Son's imagined
Tx:13.36  the hymn of freedom rising unto Heaven. Gladness and joy belong to  God for your release, because you made it not. Yet as you made not
Tx:13.37  you value wholly, and so you do not value it at all. Value is where  God placed it, and the value of what God esteems cannot be judged,
Tx:13.37  value it at all. Value is where God placed it, and the value of what  God esteems cannot be judged, for it has been established. It is
Tx:13.37  it partially is not to know its value. In Heaven is everything  God valued and nothing else. Heaven is perfectly unambiguous.
Tx:13.38  will be fulfilled. How is this possible, when His mission is of  God?
Tx:13.39 You whose minds are darkened by doubt and guilt, remember this:  God gave the Holy Spirit to you and gave Him the mission to remove
Tx:13.39  It is impossible that this mission fail. Nothing can prevent what  God would have accomplished from accomplishment. Whatever your
Tx:13.40  will fail in what your Father has given Him to do. The Will of  God can fail in nothing.
Tx:13.41 Have faith in only this one thing, and it will be sufficient:  God wills you be in Heaven, and nothing can keep you from it or
Tx:13.41  nightmares all mean nothing. They will not prevail against the peace  God wills for you. The Holy Spirit will restore your sanity, because
Tx:13.41  will restore your sanity, because insanity is not the Will of  God. If that suffices Him, it is enough for you. You will not keep
Tx:13.41  If that suffices Him, it is enough for you. You will not keep what  God would have removed, because it breaks communication with you with
Tx:13.42 The Communication Link which  God Himself placed within you, joining your minds with His, cannot
Tx:13.42  the deep peace in which the sweet and constant communication which  God would share with you is known. Yet His channels of reaching out
Tx:13.43  God willed you Heaven and will always will you nothing else. The
Tx:13.43  of His Will. There is no chance that Heaven will not be yours, for  God is sure, and what He wills is as sure as He is. You will learn
Tx:13.43  what the Holy Spirit wills to teach you. Salvation is as sure as  God. His certainty suffices. Learn that even the darkest nightmare
Tx:13.43  Son holds no power over him. He will learn the lesson of awaking.  God watches over him, and light surrounds him.
Tx:13.44 Can God's Son lose himself in dreams when  God has placed within him the glad call to waken and be glad? He
Tx:13.44  know that Heaven is yours to make it so. It is so. Yet the Will of  God must be accepted as your will to know it.
Tx:13.46 Failure is of the ego, not of  God. From Him you cannot wander, and there is no possibility that
Tx:13.50  it has not touched, and your dream is sacred to you. That is why  God placed the Holy Spirit in you, where you placed the dream.
Tx:13.51  all the power that he gives to them. The thoughts he shares with  God are beyond his belief, but those he made are his beliefs. And
Tx:13.59 Like you, the Holy Spirit did not make truth. Like  God, He knows it to be true. He brings the light of truth into the
Tx:13.63  impossible to deny the simple truth. For there is nothing else.  God is everywhere, and His Son is in Him with everything. Can he sing
Tx:13.66  to yourself gently, but with the conviction born of the love of  God and of His Son,
Tx:13.70  The joy of learning that darkness has no power over the Son of  God is the happy lesson the Holy Spirit teaches and would have you
Tx:13.71  his. There is nothing to forgive. No one can hurt the Son of  God. His guilt is wholly without cause, and being without cause,
Tx:13.72  God is the only Cause, and guilt is not of Him. Teach no one he has
Tx:13.72  has hurt you, for if you do, you teach yourself that what is not of  God has power over you. The causeless cannot be. Do not attest to
Tx:13.72  when you learn to deny the causeless and accept the Cause of  God as yours. The power that God has given to His Son is his, and
Tx:13.72  the causeless and accept the Cause of God as yours. The power that  God has given to His Son is his, and nothing else can His Son see
Tx:13.75  will never ask what you have done to make you worthy of the gift of  God. Ask it not therefore of yourselves. Instead, accept His answer,
Tx:13.75  accept His answer, for He knows that you are worthy of everything  God wills for you. Do not try to escape the gift of God which He so
Tx:13.75  of everything God wills for you. Do not try to escape the gift of  God which He so freely and so gladly offers you. He offers you but
Tx:13.75  which He so freely and so gladly offers you. He offers you but what  God gave Him for you. You need not decide whether or not you are
Tx:13.75  you. You need not decide whether or not you are deserving of it.  God knows you are.
Tx:13.76  true. Peace abides in every mind that quietly accepts the plan which  God has set for his Atonement, relinquishing his own. You know not
Tx:13.77 The One Who knows the plan of  God which God would have you follow can teach you what it is. Only
Tx:13.77 The One Who knows the plan of God which  God would have you follow can teach you what it is. Only His
Tx:13.77  and against this strange distortion of the purity of the Son of  God, the Holy Spirit is your only friend. He is the strong
Tx:13.78  leads you gladly on it. With Him you will not fail to learn what  God wills for you is your will. Without His guidance, you will
Tx:13.78  that salvation lay in you alone. Salvation is of Him to Whom  God gave it for you. He has not forgotten it. Forget Him not, and He
Tx:13.78  make every decision for you, for your salvation, and the peace of  God in you.
Tx:13.79  teaches only that the “sin” of self-replacement on the throne of  God is not a source of guilt. What cannot happen can have no
Tx:13.79  may be your choice, but not your reality. Never forget the love of  God, Who has remembered you. For it is quite impossible that He
Tx:13.80  for me,” and it is done. For His decisions are reflections of what  God knows about you, and in this light, error of any kind becomes
Tx:13.86  acknowledged. Yet truth is offered first to be received, even as  God gave it first to His Son. The first in time means nothing, but
Tx:13.86  Son. The first in time means nothing, but the First in eternity is  God the Father, Who is both First and One. Beyond the First, there is
Tx:13.87  thought it was. This state, and only this, must you attain with  God beside you. For until you do, you will still think that you are
Tx:13.89  what must be done before that knowledge would be meaningful to you.  God breaks no barriers; neither did He make them. When you
Tx:13.89  neither did He make them. When you release them, they are gone.  God will not fail nor ever has in anything.
Tx:13.90 Decide that  God is right and you are wrong about yourself. He created you out
Tx:13.90  and deceit undone. Fail not yourself, but instead offer to  God and you His blameless Son. For this small gift of appreciation
Tx:13.90  His blameless Son. For this small gift of appreciation for His Love,  God will Himself exchange your gift for His.
Tx:13.91  what you should do? Leave all decisions to the One Who speaks for  God and for your function as He knows it. So will He teach you to
Tx:13.91  awful burden you have laid upon yourself by loving not the Son of  God and trying to teach him guilt instead of love. Give up this
Tx:13.91  and insane attempt, which cheats you of the joy of living with your  God and Father, and awaking gladly to His love and holiness, which
Tx:13.92 When you have learned how to decide with  God, all decisions become as easy and as right as breathing. There is
Tx:14.1 Unless you are guiltless, you cannot know  God, Whose Will is that you know Him. Therefore, you must be
Tx:14.1  that knowledge is swept away from recognition in the very mind where  God Himself has placed it. If you would but listen and learn how
Tx:14.2  not without you. You who have thrown your selves away and valued  God so little, hear me speak for Him and for yourselves. You cannot
Tx:14.3  to itself. Atonement teaches you the true condition of the Son of  God. It does not teach you what you are or what your Father is. The
Tx:14.4  because each sees the other unlike the way he sees himself.  God can communicate only to the Holy Spirit in your mind because
Tx:14.4  your mind because only He shares the knowledge of what you are with  God. And only the Holy Spirit can answer God for you, for only He
Tx:14.4  of what you are with God. And only the Holy Spirit can answer  God for you, for only He knows what God is. Everything else that
Tx:14.4  the Holy Spirit can answer God for you, for only He knows what  God is. Everything else that you have placed within your mind
Tx:14.4  cannot exist, for what is not in communication with the Mind of  God has never been. Communication with God is life. Nothing without
Tx:14.4  with the Mind of God has never been. Communication with  God is life. Nothing without it is at all.
Tx:14.5  of your mind that has reality is the part which links you still with  God. Would you have all of it transformed into a radiant message of
Tx:14.5  and everything of value there. Listen to the Holy Spirit and to  God through Him. He speaks of you to you. There is no guilt in
Tx:14.5  Him. He speaks of you to you. There is no guilt in you, for  God is blessed in His Son as the Son is blessed in Him.
Tx:14.6  remains unfulfilled in him. The burden of guilt is heavy, but  God would not have you bound by it. His plan for your awaking is as
Tx:14.6  with you. His gentleness is yours, and all the love you share with  God He holds in trust for you. He would teach you nothing except how
Tx:14.7  blessing Father, joy was created for you. Who can condemn whom  God has blessed? There is nothing in the Mind of God that does not
Tx:14.7  can condemn whom God has blessed? There is nothing in the Mind of  God that does not share His shining innocence. Creation is the
Tx:14.7  become the teachers of the innocence that is the right of all that  God created. Deny them not what is their due, for you will not
Tx:14.8  but shine away the heavy veils of guilt within which the Son of  God has hidden himself from his own sight. We are all joined in the
Tx:14.10  the single purpose of release from guilt to the eternal glory of  God and His creation. And every teaching that points to this points
Tx:14.10  that points to this points straight to Heaven and to the peace of  God. There is no pain, no trial, no fear that teaching this can fail
Tx:14.10  trial, no fear that teaching this can fail to overcome. The power of  God Himself supports this teaching and guarantees its limitless
Tx:14.11  teaching such as this. You will not see yourself beyond the power of  God if you teach only this. You will not be exempt from the effects
Tx:14.12  which no one is excluded. Within its holy circle is everyone whom  God created as His Son. Joy is its unifying attribute, with no one
Tx:14.12  with no one left outside to suffer guilt alone. The power of  God draws everyone to its safe embrace of love and union. Stand
Tx:14.13  Fail not the only purpose to which my teaching calls you. Restore to  God His Son as He created him by teaching him his innocence.
Tx:14.14  reign of love. The power of love is in His gentleness, which is of  God and therefore cannot crucify nor suffer crucifixion. The temple
Tx:14.14  altar, for it was rebuilt through you. And everything you give to  God is yours. Thus He creates, and thus must you restore.
Tx:14.20  Him for His most holy purpose. He knows you are not separate from  God, but He perceives much in your mind that lets you think you
Tx:14.23  gates are open wide to greet His Son. No one can fail to come where  God has called him if he close not the door himself upon his Father's
Tx:14.26  are clearly opposite viewpoints of what the “unknowing” are. To  God, unknowing is impossible. It is therefore not a point of view at
Tx:14.28  no protection does not defend itself. Defense is of your making.  God knows it not. The Holy Spirit uses defenses on behalf of truth
Tx:14.29  of preservation and release. His task is mighty, but the power of  God is with Him. Therefore, to Him it is so easy that it was
Tx:14.29  in your return to peace by wondering how He can fulfill what  God has given Him to do. Leave that to Him Who knows. You are not
Tx:14.31 You cannot see alone. Sharing perception with Him Whom  God has given you teaches you how to recognize what you see. It is
Tx:14.31  of everything into one meaning, one emotion, and one purpose.  God has one purpose which He shares with you. The single vision which
Tx:14.31  so intense you could not wish for all the world not to accept what  God would have you have. Behold your will, accepting it as His, with
Tx:14.31  love as yours. All honor to you through Him, and through Him unto  God.
Tx:14.32 In the darkness you have obscured the glory  God gave you and the power He bestowed upon His guiltless Son. All
Tx:14.32  have closed lies nothing, because nothing can obscure the gift of  God. It is the closing of the doors that interferes with recognition
Tx:14.32  of the doors that interferes with recognition of the power of  God that shines in you. Banish not power from your mind, but let all
Tx:14.32  you would be released from littleness to glory. To what He promised  God He is wholly faithful, for He shared with God the promise that
Tx:14.32  To what He promised God He is wholly faithful, for He shared with  God the promise that was given Him to share with you.
Tx:14.33  to lay upon the altar to your Father and His Son. No altar stands to  God without His Son. And nothing brought there that is not equally
Tx:14.33  wholly acceptable to Father and to Son. Can you offer guilt to  God? You cannot, then, offer it to His Son. For they are not apart,
Tx:14.34 You know not  God because you know not this. And yet you do know God and also
Tx:14.34 You know not God because you know not this. And yet you do know  God and also this. All this is safe within you, where the Holy
Tx:14.34  shines. He shines not in division, but in the meeting place where  God, united with His Son, speaks to His Son through Him.
Tx:14.34  Holy Spirit and in you. All interference in the communication that  God Himself wills with His Son is quite impossible here. Unbroken and
Tx:14.35  by the Guide appointed for you. He will surely lead you to where  God and His Son await your recognition. They are joined in giving you
Tx:14.36  through gentle understanding which can lead you nowhere else. Where  God is, there are you. Such is the truth. Nothing can change the
Tx:14.36  Such is the truth. Nothing can change the knowledge given you by  God into unknowingness. Everything God created knows its Creator. For
Tx:14.36  change the knowledge given you by God into unknowingness. Everything  God created knows its Creator. For this is how creation is
Tx:14.37  of creation and with its One Creator. And Heaven remains the Will of  God for you. Lay no gifts other than this upon your altars, for
Tx:14.37  it. Here your meager offerings are brought together with the gift of  God, and only what is worthy of the Father will be accepted by the
Tx:14.37  will be accepted by the Son, for whom it was intended. To whom  God gives Himself, He is given. Your little gifts will vanish on
Tx:14.38  are. The bringing together of truth and illusion, of the ego to  God, is the Holy Spirit's only function. Keep not your making from
Tx:14.39 Bringing the ego to  God is but to bring error to truth, where it stands corrected because
Tx:14.40  will rush to your assistance and support. You are not frail with  God beside you. Yet without Him you are nothing. The Atonement offers
Tx:14.40  you. Yet without Him you are nothing. The Atonement offers you  God. The gift which you refused is held by Him in you. His Spirit
Tx:14.40  refused is held by Him in you. His Spirit holds it there for you.  God has not left His altar, though His worshiper placed other gods
Tx:14.41  knows they will return to purity and to grace. The graciousness of  God will take them gently in and cover all their sense of pain and
Tx:14.41  Love. There, fear of death will be replaced with joy of living. For  God is Life, and they abide in Life. [Life is as holy as the
Tx:14.42  would hold God's reflection in it. Earth can reflect Heaven or hell;  God or the ego. You need but leave the mirror clean and clear of all
Tx:14.42  clear of all the images of hidden darkness you have drawn upon it.  God will shine upon it of Himself. Only the clear reflection of
Tx:14.43 The reflection of  God needs no interpretation. It is clear. Clean but the mirror,
Tx:14.44  for a single instant the power of healing that the reflection of  God, shining in you, can bring to all the world, you could not wait
Tx:14.45  rather the actual condition of what was but reflected to them here.  God is no image, and His creations, as part of Him, hold Him in them
Tx:14.46 When no perception stands between  God and His creations, or between His Children and their own, the
Tx:14.47  reflection here, its truth becomes the only perception the Son of  God accepts. And thus, remembrance of his Father dawns on him, and he
Tx:14.51  no judgment of your own. The answer is very simple. The power of  God, and not of you, engenders miracles. The miracle itself is but
Tx:14.51  The miracle itself is but the witness that you have the power of  God in you. That is the reason why the miracle gives equal blessing
Tx:14.51  in it, and that is also why everyone shares in it. The power of  God is limitless. And being always maximal, it offers everything to
Tx:14.55 It is impossible to remember  God in secret and alone. For remembering Him means you are not
Tx:14.56 As  God communicates to the Holy Spirit in you, so does the Holy Spirit
Tx:14.56  His communications through you so you can understand them.  God has no secret communications, for everything of Him is perfectly
Tx:14.57  wherever it is not recognized, you will recognize it. And  God Himself, Who wills to be with His Son forever, will bless each
Tx:14.58  that you do not know. Knowledge is power, and all power is of  God. You who have tried to keep power for yourselves have lost it.
Tx:14.58  of any kind. Yet all that stands between you and the power of  God in you is but your learning of the false and your attempts to
Tx:14.59  forever. For you have taught yourselves how to imprison the Son of  God, a lesson so unthinkable that only the insane, in deepest sleep,
Tx:14.59  that only the insane, in deepest sleep, could even dream of it. Can  God learn how not to be God? And can His Son, given all power by
Tx:14.59  deepest sleep, could even dream of it. Can God learn how not to be  God? And can His Son, given all power by Him, learn to be powerless?
Tx:14.61  in you can hardly judge the truth and value of this course. Yet  God did not abandon you. And so you have another lesson sent from
Tx:14.61  from Him, already learned for every Child of light by Him to Whom  God gave it. This lesson shines with God's glory, for in it lies His
Tx:14.63 You have one test, as sure as  God, by which to recognize if what you learned is true. If you are
Tx:14.66  to attempt to teach yourself what you do not know, the Guide Whom  God has given you will speak to you. He will take His rightful place
Tx:14.67  His Son to turn to Him and remain Himself. It is impossible that  God lose His Identity, for if He did, you would lose yours. And
Tx:14.70  can abide in what He has established as holy by His Presence. Thank  God that He is there and works through you. And all His works are
Tx:14.71 God's Son will always be indivisible. As we are held as one in  God, so do we learn as one in Him. God's Teacher is as like to His
Tx:14.71  as like to His Creator as is His Son, and through His Teacher does  God proclaim His Oneness and His Son's. Listen in silence, and do
Tx:14.71  having the holy stamp of immortality upon it. This is the Will of  God for all creation, and all creation joins in willing this.
Tx:14.72  found alone. Each brings the other with it, for it is the law of  God they be not separate. They are cause and effect, each to the
Tx:14.75 The power of  God, from which they both arise, is yours as surely as it is His. You
Tx:15.9  Each instant is a clean, untarnished birth, in which the Son of  God emerges from the past into the present. And the present extends
Tx:15.11  There is no change in Heaven because there is no change in  God. In the holy instant in which you see yourself as bright with
Tx:15.11  which you see yourself as bright with freedom, you will remember  God. For remembering Him is to remember freedom.
Tx:15.14  perfect sanity, perfect peace, and perfect love for everyone, for  God, and for yourself. As long as it takes to remember immortality
Tx:15.16  for time. Being in you, it is eternal. What holds remembrance of  God cannot be bound by time. No more are you. For unless God is
Tx:15.16  of God cannot be bound by time. No more are you. For unless  God is bound, you cannot be. An instant offered to the Holy Spirit
Tx:15.16  you cannot be. An instant offered to the Holy Spirit is offered to  God on your behalf, and in that instant you will awaken gently in
Tx:15.17  it is wholly without fear. It will come, being the lesson  God gives you through the Teacher He has appointed to translate time
Tx:15.17  He gently translates hell into Heaven. For it is only in Heaven that  God would have you be.
Tx:15.18 How long can it take to be where  God would have you? For you are where you have forever been and
Tx:15.18  have forever. The blessed instant reaches out to encompass time, as  God extends Himself to encompass you. You who have spent days, hours,
Tx:15.19  you will know which you have chosen by their reactions. A Son of  God who has been released through the Holy Spirit in a brother, if
Tx:15.20  will, and you will recognize it with perfect certainty. No gift of  God is recognized in any other way. You can practice the mechanics of
Tx:15.21  from you in this practice, for it is the practice of the power of  God in you. Use it but for one instant, and you will never deny it
Tx:15.26 The power of  God will support every effort you make on behalf of His dear Son.
Tx:15.26  dear Son. Search for the little, and you deny yourself His power.  God is not willing that His Son be content with less than everything.
Tx:15.26  asked you once before, “Would you be hostage to the ego or host to  God?” Let this question be asked you by the Holy Spirit in you every
Tx:15.27 When  God gave Himself to you in your creation, He established you as host
Tx:15.27  and make His Son hostage to the ego cannot make little whom  God has joined with Him. Every decision you make is for Heaven or for
Tx:15.28 Decide for  God through Him. For littleness and the belief that you can be
Tx:15.28  made about yourself. The power and the glory that lie in you from  God are for all who, like you, perceive themselves as little and have
Tx:15.28  Neither give littleness, nor accept it. All honor is due the host of  God. Your littleness deceives you, but your magnitude is of Him Who
Tx:15.29  together to restore the awareness of magnitude to the host whom  God appointed for Himself. It is beyond all your littleness to give
Tx:15.29  for Himself. It is beyond all your littleness to give the gift of  God, but not beyond you. For God would give Himself through
Tx:15.29  your littleness to give the gift of God, but not beyond you. For  God would give Himself through you. He reaches from you to everyone
Tx:15.30  little offerings you have given slip into nothingness. Holy Child of  God, when will you learn that only holiness can content you and
Tx:15.31  together we can replace the shabby littleness that binds the host of  God to guilt and weakness with the glad awareness of the glory that
Tx:15.32  yourself. But you will gladly give, having received. The host of  God need not seek to find anything.
Tx:15.33 If you are wholly willing to leave salvation to the plan of  God and unwilling to attempt to grasp for peace yourself, salvation
Tx:15.33  all those who would be bound, proclaiming together that the Son of  God is host to Him. Thus will we let no one forget what you would
Tx:15.34 Call forth in everyone only the remembrance of  God and of the Heaven that is in him. For where you would help your
Tx:15.35  beyond immediate learning unless you prefer to believe that what  God wills takes time. And this means only that you would rather
Tx:15.36  and there is nothing else that can bring you peace. For peace is of  God and of no one beside Him.
Tx:15.37  yet great in Him. And value no plan of the ego before the plan of  God. For you leave empty your place in His plan, which you must
Tx:15.37  plan that He has given to the world for its release from littleness.  God would have His host abide in perfect freedom. Every allegiance to
Tx:15.39  at once, for the release from littleness in the mind of the host of  God depends on willingness and not on time. The reason why this
Tx:15.41  you are not in full communication with those around you and with  God Who surrounds all of you together.
Tx:15.44  Thus will He make you ready to acknowledge that you are host to  God and hostage to no one and nothing.
Tx:15.47  reality and understand what love means. If you would love unlike to  God, Who knows no special love, how can you understand it? To
Tx:15.53  God knows you now. He remembers nothing, having always known you
Tx:15.53  His frame of reference for it. His frame of reference is simply  God. The Holy Spirit's timelessness lies only here. For in the holy
Tx:15.54  it becomes one to you. The meaning of love is the meaning  God gave to it. Give to it any meaning apart from His, and it is
Tx:15.54  from His, and it is impossible to understand it. Every brother  God loves as He loves you—neither less nor more. He needs them all
Tx:15.54  are seeking you. Yet in the holy instant, you unite directly with  God, and all your brothers join in Christ. Those who are joined in
Tx:15.54  in no way separate. For Christ is the Self the Sonship shares, as  God shares His Self with Christ.
Tx:15.55 Think you that you can judge the Self of  God? God has created it beyond judgment out of His need to extend
Tx:15.55 Think you that you can judge the Self of God?  God has created it beyond judgment out of His need to extend His
Tx:15.55  one. For the holy instant reaches to eternity and to the Mind of  God. And it is only there love has meaning, and only there can it
Tx:15.59 You do not find it difficult to believe that, when another calls on  God for love, your call remains as strong. Nor do you think that,
Tx:15.59  of yours. That is because you recognize, however dimly, that  God is an idea, and so your faith in Him is strengthened by
Tx:15.60  And this is love, for this alone is natural under the laws of  God.
Tx:15.61 In the holy instant, the laws of  God prevail, and only they have meaning. The laws of this world cease
Tx:15.61  laws of this world cease to hold any meaning at all. When the Son of  God accepts the laws of God as what he gladly wills, it is impossible
Tx:15.61  to hold any meaning at all. When the Son of God accepts the laws of  God as what he gladly wills, it is impossible that he be bound or
Tx:15.61  he be bound or limited in any way. In this instant, he is as free as  God would have him be. For the instant he refuses to be bound, he
Tx:15.62  instant, you will recognize the only need the aspects of the Son of  God share equally, and by this recognition you will join with me in
Tx:15.64 In the holy instant  God is remembered, and the language of communication with all your
Tx:15.64  and that of all your brothers to replace it in your awareness.  God and the power of God will take their rightful place in you, and
Tx:15.64  your brothers to replace it in your awareness. God and the power of  God will take their rightful place in you, and you will experience
Tx:15.67  for ugliness such as this belongs not in your holy mind. The host of  God can have no real investment here.
Tx:15.69 It is this chain that binds the Son of  God to guilt, and it is this chain the Holy Spirit would remove from
Tx:15.69  For the chain of savagery belongs not around the chosen host of  God, who cannot make himself host to the ego. In the name of his
Tx:15.77  communication is salvation. And He will do so, for the power of  God in Him and you is joined in real relationship, so holy and so
Tx:15.80  that you cannot conceive of need so great. Behold the only need that  God and His Son share and will to meet together. You are not alone in
Tx:15.80  you to share your will with them. Turn, then, in peace from guilt to  God and them.
Tx:15.81  as nothing more than a mistake in who you are. For the holy host of  God is beyond failure, and nothing that he wills can be denied. You
Tx:15.82 Think but an instant on this:  God gave the Sonship to you to ensure your perfect creation. This was
Tx:15.82  relationships are with the universe. And this universe, being of  God, is far beyond the petty sum of all the separate bodies you
Tx:15.82  the separate bodies you perceive. For all its parts are joined in  God through Christ, where they become like to their Father. For
Tx:15.83  attempt, it will succeed. The Holy Spirit asks you to respond as  God does, for He would teach you what you do not understand. God
Tx:15.83  as God does, for He would teach you what you do not understand.  God would respond to every need, whatever form it takes. And so He
Tx:15.83  channel open to receive His communication to you and yours to Him.  God does not understand your problem in communication, for He does
Tx:15.84  because you have made it. In Him alone lies the awareness of what  God cannot know and what you do not understand. It is His holy
Tx:15.84  to Him Who knows it must be possible because it is the Will of  God. And let Him Whose teaching is only of God teach you the only
Tx:15.84  it is the Will of God. And let Him Whose teaching is only of  God teach you the only meaning of relationships. For God created
Tx:15.84  is only of God teach you the only meaning of relationships. For  God created the only relationship which has meaning, and that is His
Tx:15.85  the Great Rays shining from them, so unlimited that they reach to  God. It is this shift in vision which is accomplished in the holy
Tx:15.85  you want, it is translated into knowledge by the part which  God Himself plays in the Atonement, for it is the only step in it He
Tx:15.85  Therefore, in this there will be no delay when you are ready for it.  God is ready now, but you are not.
Tx:15.87 Real relationships have no limits, having been established by  God. In the holy instant, where the Great Rays replace the body in
Tx:15.88 It is impossible to divide your strength between Heaven and hell,  God and the ego, and release your power unto creation, which is the
Tx:15.89 If you would but let the Holy Spirit tell you of the love of  God for you and the need your creations have to be with you forever,
Tx:15.90  must remember—the attraction of guilt opposes the attraction of  God. His attraction for you remains unlimited, but because your
Tx:15.90  can turn away from love. What you invest in guilt, you withdraw from  God. And your sight grows weak and dim and limited, for you have
Tx:15.91  there are no bodies, and you experience only the attraction of  God. Accepting it as undivided, you join Him wholly in an instant.
Tx:15.93  For in this liberating instant, no guilt is laid upon the Son of  God, and his unlimited power is thus restored to him. What other gift
Tx:15.93  the gift you offer me. I am as incapable of receiving sacrifice as  God is, and every sacrifice you ask of yourself, you ask of me. Learn
Tx:15.95  you believe that it is possible to be host to the ego or hostage to  God. This is the choice you think you have, and the decision which
Tx:15.98  of love, which must be paid by fear. How fearful, then, has  God become to you, and how great a sacrifice do you believe His love
Tx:15.98  total sacrifice. And so the ego seems to demand less of you than  God, and of the two is judged as the lesser of two evils, one to be
Tx:15.98  able to be neither completely. And this you think saves you from  God, Whose total love would completely destroy you.
Tx:15.99  price of not accepting this has been so great that you have given  God away rather than look at it. For if God would demand total
Tx:15.99  so great that you have given God away rather than look at it. For if  God would demand total sacrifice of you, you thought it safer to
Tx:15.100  is that makes the decision so easy! Salvation is simple, being of  God and therefore very easy to understand. Do not try to project it
Tx:15.100  question and the answer—the demand for sacrifice and the peace of  God.
Tx:15.102  the whole idea of sacrifice loses all meaning. For He is Host to  God. And you need but invite Him in Who is there already, by
Tx:15.102  holiness which surrounds it. No fear can touch the host who cradles  God in the time of Christ, for the Host is as holy as the Perfect
Tx:15.104  peace is the condition for the awareness of your relationship with  God. Through guilt you exclude your Father and your brothers from
Tx:15.106  For unless the universe were joined in you, it would be apart from  God, and to be without Him is to be without meaning.
Tx:15.109  God offers thanks to the holy host who would receive Him and let Him
Tx:16.7  The power of love, which is its meaning, lies in the strength of  God, which hovers over it and blesses it silently by enveloping it in
Tx:16.12  of the whole in every part is perfectly natural. For it is the way  God thinks, and what is natural to Him is natural to you. Wholly
Tx:16.15  you, and be glad you do not understand it. Miracles are natural to  God and to the One Who speaks for Him. For His task is to translate
Tx:16.16  You can delay this now but only a little while. The Host of  God has called to you, and you have heard. Never again will you be
Tx:16.17  of your interpretation, considering honestly what they have been?  God wills you better. Could you not look with greater charity on whom
Tx:16.17  wills you better. Could you not look with greater charity on whom  God loves with perfect love?
Tx:16.25  already done this, for the Holy Spirit is part of you. Created by  God, He left neither God nor His creation. He is both God and you,
Tx:16.25  the Holy Spirit is part of you. Created by God, He left neither  God nor His creation. He is both God and you, as you are God and
Tx:16.25  Created by God, He left neither God nor His creation. He is both  God and you, as you are God and Him together. For God's answer to
Tx:16.25  neither God nor His creation. He is both God and you, as you are  God and Him together. For God's answer to the separation added more
Tx:16.25  to your teaching of yourself, who is their home. You who are host to  God are also host to them. For nothing real has ever left the mind of
Tx:16.26 You are not two selves in conflict. What is beyond  God? If you who hold Him and whom He holds are the universe, all
Tx:16.31  last emerge as yourself. This is the last step in the readiness for  God. Be not unwilling now. You are too near, and you will cross the
Tx:16.37  you could never be complete. No specialness can offer you what  God has given and what you are joined with Him in giving.
Tx:16.38 Across the bridge is your completion, for you will be wholly in  God, willing for nothing special but only to be wholly like unto Him,
Tx:16.38  abode of peace and perfect holiness. Only there is the completion of  God and of His Son established forever. Seek not for this in the
Tx:16.38  is certain, and where everything fails to satisfy. In the Name of  God, be wholly willing to abandon all illusions. In any
Tx:16.38  are wholly willing to accept completion, and only this, there is  God completed and His Son with Him.
Tx:16.39  to union in yourself must lead to knowledge, for it was built with  God beside you and will lead you straight to Him, where your
Tx:16.40  is wholly without illusion and therefore wholly without fear. Whom  God remembers must be whole. And God has never forgotten what makes
Tx:16.40  wholly without fear. Whom God remembers must be whole. And  God has never forgotten what makes Him whole. In your completion
Tx:16.40  In Him are joined your willingness to love and all the love of  God, Who forgot you not.
Tx:16.41  away from truth together, and then together we go straight to  God in joyous answer to His call for His completion.
Tx:16.42  completion, can they have value to you? What would interfere with  God must interfere with you. Only in time does interference in
Tx:16.42  upheld by timelessness, you are directed straight to the Heart of  God. At its center, and only there, you are safe forever because
Tx:16.42  because you are complete forever. There is no veil the love of  God in us together cannot lift. The way to truth is open. Follow it
Tx:16.44 Very simply, the attempt to make guilty is always directed against  God. For the ego would have you see Him, and Him alone, as guilty,
Tx:16.46  special relationship, born of the hidden wish for special love from  God, that the ego's hatred triumphs. For the special relationship is
Tx:16.46  For the special relationship is the renunciation of the love of  God and the attempt to secure for the self the specialness which He
Tx:16.47  and in the extension of the “victory” even to the final triumph over  God. In this it sees the ultimate freedom of the self, for nothing
Tx:16.52 If you perceived the special relationship as a triumph over  God, would you want it? Let us not think of its fearful nature nor
Tx:16.52  to occur. The central theme in its litany to sacrifice is that  God must die so you can live. And it is this theme which is acted
Tx:16.54  of form, aimed at the raising of the form to take the place of  God at the expense of content. There is no meaning in the form,
Tx:16.54  a senseless ritual in which strength is extracted from the death of  God and invested in His killer as the sign that form has triumphed
Tx:16.54  For if it were possible, you would have made yourself helpless.  God is not angry. He merely could not let this happen. You cannot
Tx:16.55  to the eternal. Nor can your chosen substitute for the wholeness of  God have any influence at all upon it. See in the special
Tx:16.56  unable to make the simple choice between truth and illusion,  God and fantasy. Remember this and you will have no difficulty in
Tx:16.57  truth and into fantasy. Yet for every learning that would hurt you,  God offers you correction and complete escape from all its
Tx:16.58  cross the bridge into reality simply because you will recognize that  God is on the other side and nothing at all is here. It is
Tx:16.59  is the sign that you equate yourself with the ego and not with  God. For the special relationship has value only to the ego. To the
Tx:16.59  Yet this cannot be natural, for it is unlike the relationship of  God and His Son, and all relationships that are unlike this one
Tx:16.59  all relationships that are unlike this one must be unnatural. For  God created love as He would have it be and gave it as it is. Love
Tx:16.60  in bondage is to separate yourself from it. For the love of  God, no longer seek for union in separation nor for freedom in
Tx:16.62  the universe. Far more is left outside than would be taken in. For  God is left without and nothing taken in. If one such union were
Tx:16.68  take its rightful place within it. Wait no longer, for the love of  God and you. And may the holy instant speed you on the way, as it
Tx:16.77 What  God has given you is truly given and will be truly received. For
Tx:16.77  Spirit teaches you is to remind you that you have received what  God has given you.
Tx:16.78  Their reality has no past, and only illusions can be forgiven.  God holds nothing against anyone, for He is incapable of illusions of
Tx:16.79  heal and the ego's “atonement” which would destroy. The power of  God and all His Love, without limit, will support you as you seek
Tx:16.79  place in the plan of Atonement arising from His Love. Be an ally of  God and not the ego in seeking how Atonement can come to you. His
Tx:16.80  to give over all illusions for the reality of your relationship with  God. Praise be to your relationship with Him and to no other. The
Tx:16.81  Let us not wander into temptation, for the temptation of the Son of  God is not Your will. And let us receive only what you have given and
Tx:17.1 The betrayal of the Son of  God lies only in illusions, and all his “sins” are but his own
Tx:17.1  In his dreams he has betrayed himself, his brothers, and his  God. Yet what is done in dreams has not been really done. It is
Tx:17.7  the happiness this sight will bring you. For you will see the Son of  God. You will behold the beauty which the Holy Spirit loves to look
Tx:17.10  real world will be so short that you will barely have time to thank  God for it. For God will take the last step swiftly when you have
Tx:17.10  be so short that you will barely have time to thank God for it. For  God will take the last step swiftly when you have reached the real
Tx:17.11  reason is suddenly released to loveliness. Not even what the Son of  God made in insanity could be without a hidden spark of beauty which
Tx:17.12  a sign of God's perfection. From the forgiven world, the Son of  God is lifted easily into his home. And there he knows that he has
Tx:17.14  immortal are “enemies” of reality. Be willing to forgive the Son of  God for what he did not do. The shadow figures are the witnesses
Tx:17.22  to light your way and make it clear to you. God's Son is one. Whom  God has joined as one, the ego cannot break apart. The spark of
Tx:17.25 —it is all the same. For you can never choose except between  God and the ego. Thought systems are but true or false, and all their
Tx:17.25  attributes come simply from what they are. Only the Thoughts of  God are true. And all that follows from them comes from what they are
Tx:17.26  dreams are cherished have excluded me. Let me enter in the Name of  God and bring you peace that you may offer peace to me.
Tx:17.27  God established His relationship with you to make you happy, and
Tx:17.27  you do which does not share His purpose can be real. The purpose  God ascribed to anything is its only function. Because of His reason
Tx:17.27  else. To fulfill this function, you relate to your creations as  God to His. For nothing God created is apart from happiness, and
Tx:17.27  function, you relate to your creations as God to His. For nothing  God created is apart from happiness, and nothing God created but
Tx:17.27  to His. For nothing God created is apart from happiness, and nothing  God created but would extend happiness as its Creator did. Whatever
Tx:17.28  is meant is that He will restore to them the function given them by  God. The function you have given them is clearly not to make happy.
Tx:17.30  from the Holy Spirit was in response to the gift with which  God blessed it and by His blessing enabled it to be healed. This
Tx:17.30  close relationship with you because in Him is your relationship with  God restored to you. The relationship with Him has never been
Tx:17.36  undertaken to keep truth whole. The power of Heaven, the love of  God, the tears of Christ, and the joy of His eternal Spirit are
Tx:17.41  Itself. What it represents is there. The frame fades gently, and  God rises to your remembrance, offering you the whole of creation in
Tx:17.42 As  God ascends into His rightful place and you to yours, you will

Tx:17.51  unchanged throughout eternity? For you have chosen but the goal of  God from which your true intent was never absent.
Tx:17.52  with you. Think not your choice will leave you comfortless, for  God Himself has blessed your holy relationship. Join in His blessing,
Tx:17.73  are no longer wholly insane, nor no longer alone. For loneliness in  God must be a dream. You whose relationship shares the Holy
Tx:17.78 Such was the crucifixion of the Son of  God. His faithlessness did this to him. Think carefully before you
Tx:18.2  One would unite; the other separate. Nothing can come between what  God has joined and what the Holy Spirit sees as one. But everything
Tx:18.4 You who believe that  God is fear made but one substitution. It has taken many forms
Tx:18.8  the stately calm within, where in holy stillness dwells the living  God you never left and Who never left you. The Holy Spirit takes you

Tx:18.11  beholds it and rejoices that you have let it come to you. [And  God Himself is glad that your relationship is as it was created.] The
Tx:18.12 Whom  God has called should hear no substitutes. Their call is but an echo
Tx:18.13  Accept it here, and you will give as you have accepted. The peace of  God is given you with the glowing purpose in which you join. The holy

Tx:18.23  reality. For this dream comes from your will joined with the Will of  God. And what this will would have accomplished has never not been
Tx:18.24  truth forever in complete insanity. What you forgot was simply that  God cannot destroy Himself. The light is in you. Darkness can cover
Tx:18.27  only in frightening yourselves. The gift is given forever, for  God Himself received it. You cannot take it back. You have accepted
Tx:18.27  Himself received it. You cannot take it back. You have accepted  God. The holiness of your relationship is established in Heaven. You

Tx:18.28  walk with you in your advance to truth. And where we go, we carry  God with us.
Tx:18.29  you have joined with me in bringing Heaven to the Son of  God, who hid in darkness. You have been willing to bring the darkness
Tx:18.31  but goes with you. Not one ray that shines forever in the Mind of  God but shines on you. Heaven is joined with you in your advance to

Tx:18.36  more than simple willingness to make way for it. Purification is of  God alone and therefore for you. Rather than seek to prepare yourself
Tx:18.37 I who am host to  God am worthy of Him. He Who established His dwelling-place in me

Tx:18.43  prepare yourselves for such a function? Yet it is possible because  God wills it. Nor will He change His Mind about it. The means and
Tx:18.49  that] realization that the Kingdom of Heaven is restored to you. For  God created only this, and He did not depart from it nor leave it
Tx:18.49  Himself. The Kingdom of Heaven is the dwelling-place of the Son of  God, who left not his Father and dwells not apart from Him. Heaven is
Tx:18.50 What could  God give but knowledge of Himself? What else is there to give? The
Tx:18.52  not condemn it and can use it lovingly, respecting what the Son of  God has made and using it to save him from illusions.
Tx:18.53  what cannot destroy can have no real effect at all. And what  God created is only what He would have it be, being His Will. You
Tx:18.54  no meaning, proclaiming it to be the dwelling-place of the Son of  God and turning it against him.
Tx:18.55 This is the host of  God that you have made. And neither God nor His most holy Son can
Tx:18.55 This is the host of God that you have made. And neither  God nor His most holy Son can enter an abode which harbors hate and
Tx:18.57  [and them from you]. It is not there. There is no barrier between  God and His Son, nor can His Son be separated from himself except in
Tx:18.57  not his reality, though he believes it is. Yet this could only be if  God were wrong. God would have had to create differently and to have
Tx:18.57  though he believes it is. Yet this could only be if God were wrong.  God would have had to create differently and to have separated
Tx:18.57  And so it is. You cannot put a barrier around yourself because  God placed none between Himself and you.
Tx:18.58  your shared Identity together. Could this be outside you? Where  God is not? Is He a body, and did He create you as He is not and
Tx:18.71  with externals, something outside itself. You cannot even think of  God without a body or some form you think you recognize.
Tx:18.72  its tiny senses, you will not see the grandeur which surrounds you.  God cannot come into a body, nor can you join Him there. Limits on
Tx:18.72  from the whole, proclaiming that within it is your kingdom, where  God can enter not.
Tx:18.79 The Thought of  God surrounds your little kingdom, waiting at the barrier you built
Tx:18.81  into Heaven. No part of love calls on the whole in vain. No Son of  God remains outside His Fatherhood.
Tx:18.82  not be able to give love welcome separately. You could no more know  God alone than He knows you without your brother. But together you
Tx:18.84  needs help because in its delusions it thinks it is the Son of  God, whole and omnipotent, sole ruler of the kingdom it set apart to
Tx:18.85  by hate. Within its barricades is still a tiny segment of the Son of  God, complete and holy, serene and unaware of what you think
Tx:18.87  quite unaware of it; its tongue cannot relay its messages. Yet  God can bring you there if you are willing to follow the Holy Spirit
Tx:18.93  you had laid upon it. Here there is no attack upon the Son of  God, and you are welcome. Here is your innocence, waiting to clothe
Tx:18.94  is the messenger of love and not its Source. Here you are led that  God Himself can take the final step unhindered, for here does nothing
Tx:18.95  go beyond it but in a different way. Where learning ends there  God begins, for learning ends before Him Who is complete where He
Tx:18.98 And when the memory of  God has come to you in the holy place of forgiveness, you will
Tx:19.2  properly perceived becomes an opportunity to heal the Son of  God. And he is healed because you offered faith to him, giving him
Tx:19.5  heal.] Faithlessness would interpose illusions between the Son of  God and his Creator; faith would remove all obstacles that seem to
Tx:19.7 Here then is healing needed. And it is here that healing is. For  God gave healing not apart from sickness, nor established remedy
Tx:19.12 Faith is the gift of  God, through Him Whom God has given you. Faithlessness looks upon the
Tx:19.12 Faith is the gift of God, through Him Whom  God has given you. Faithlessness looks upon the Son of God and judges
Tx:19.12  Him Whom God has given you. Faithlessness looks upon the Son of  God and judges him unworthy of forgiveness. But through the eyes of
Tx:19.12  unworthy of forgiveness. But through the eyes of faith, the Son of  God is seen already forgiven, free of all the guilt he laid upon
Tx:19.12  sign you share it with Him. Faith is a gift you offer to the Son of  God through Him, and wholly acceptable to his Father as to him. And
Tx:19.14 In the holy instant, you stand before the altar  God has raised unto Himself and both of you. Lay faithlessness
Tx:19.16  time. For what you think you do to the eternal you do to you. Whom  God created as His Son is slave to nothing, being lord of all along
Tx:19.18  that attack is real and guilt is justified. It assumes the Son of  God is guilty and has thus succeeded in losing his innocence and
Tx:19.18  has thus succeeded in losing his innocence and making himself what  God created not. Thus is creation seen as not eternal, and the Will
Tx:19.18  created not. Thus is creation seen as not eternal, and the Will of  God open to opposition and defeat. Sin is the “grand illusion”
Tx:19.18  “grand illusion” underlying all the ego's grandiosity. For by it,  God Himself is changed and rendered incomplete.
Tx:19.19 The Son of  God can be mistaken; he can deceive himself; he can even turn the
Tx:19.20  And it is this doctrine which replaces the reality of the Son of  God as his Father created him and willed that he be forever. Is this
Tx:19.22  have is found in this. For sin has changed creation from an idea of  God to an ideal the ego wants; a world it rules, made up of bodies,
Tx:19.23  idea that sin is real—the natural expression of what the Son of  God has made himself to be and what he is. To the ego, this is no
Tx:19.23  Father and changed His Mind completely. Mourn, then, the death of  God, Whom sin has killed! And this would be the ego's wish, which in
Tx:19.27  punish sin. Mistakes He recognizes and would correct them all as  God entrusted Him to do. But sin He knows not, nor can He recognize
Tx:19.28  and thus unanswered? In time the Holy Spirit clearly sees the Son of  God can make mistakes. On this you share His vision. Yet you do not
Tx:19.31  to believe that sin is real, remember this: If sin is real, both  God and you are not. If creation is extension, the Creator must have
Tx:19.31  that what is part of Him is totally unlike the rest. If sin is real,  God must be at war with Himself. He must be split and torn between
Tx:19.32  world in which the proof of separation seems to be everywhere. And  God and His creation seem to be split apart and overthrown. For sin
Tx:19.32  seem to be split apart and overthrown. For sin would prove what  God created holy could not prevail against it nor remain itself
Tx:19.32  itself before the power of sin. Sin is perceived as mightier than  God, before which God Himself must bow and offer His creation to its
Tx:19.32  power of sin. Sin is perceived as mightier than God, before which  God Himself must bow and offer His creation to its conqueror. Is this
Tx:19.38  to him and he will answer you, recognizing in your call the Call of  God. And you will draw him in and give him rest, as it was given you.
Tx:19.39  here will be accomplished. What need is there for seeing then? When  God has taken the last step Himself, the Holy Spirit will gather all
Tx:19.40  If you would make it homeless, how can it abide within the Son of  God? If it would spread across the whole creation, it must begin with
Tx:19.41  forth. This little wall of hatred would still oppose the Will of  God and keep it limited.
Tx:19.42  unwilling to let it join you wholly. You still oppose the Will of  God, just by a little. And that little is a limit you would place
Tx:19.43  such have you become. Peace could no more depart from you than from  God. Fear not this little obstacle. It cannot contain the Will of
Tx:19.43  God. Fear not this little obstacle. It cannot contain the Will of  God. Peace will flow across it and join you without hindrance.
Tx:19.56  murder. Salvation is looked upon as a way by which the Son of  God was killed instead of you.
Tx:19.65  you would look on me. Forgive me all the sins you think the Son of  God committed. And in the light of your forgiveness, he will remember
Tx:19.79 This is not arrogance. It is the Will of  God. What is impossible to you who chose His Will as yours? What is
Tx:19.79  we call the ego as surely as life is the result of the Thought of  God.
Tx:19.80  and death, in opposition to life and innocence and to the Will of  God Himself. Where can such opposition lie but in the sick minds of
Tx:19.80  to madness and set against the peace of Heaven? One thing is sure— God, Who created neither sin nor death, wills not that you be bound
Tx:19.81  upon it as himself. You who believe you have condemned the Son of  God to this are arrogant. But you who would release him are but
Tx:19.82  of a tiny mad idea of corruption which can be corrected. For  God has answered this insane idea with His own, an Answer which left
Tx:19.84  the answer to the Answer, the silencer of the Voice that speaks for  God. Yet the retreat to death is not the end of conflict. Only
Tx:19.85  the dusty edge of its distorted world, the ego would lay the Son of  God, slain by its orders, proof in his decay that God Himself is
Tx:19.85  lay the Son of God, slain by its orders, proof in his decay that  God Himself is powerless before the ego's might, unable to protect
Tx:19.85  conquer life. And what but insanity could look upon the defeat of  God and think it real?
Tx:19.86  protected by your union, ready to grow into a mighty force for  God, is very near. The infancy of salvation is carefully guarded by
Tx:19.86  is nursed by angels, cherished by the Holy Spirit, and protected by  God Himself. It needs not your protection; it is yours. For it is
Tx:19.87  been given you, even in its infancy, is in full communication with  God and you. In its tiny hands, it holds in perfect safety every
Tx:19.87  by your forgiveness of each other, and see in it the Will of  God. Here is the babe of Bethlehem reborn. And everyone who gives him
Tx:19.90  a final obstacle after which is salvation completed and the Son of  God entirely restored to sanity. For here your world does end.
Tx:19.92  call you out of separation; the great amnesia in which the memory of  God seems quite forgotten; the cleavage of your Self from you—the
Tx:19.93  secret alliance with them, you have agreed never to let the fear of  God be lifted so you could look upon the face of Christ and join Him
Tx:19.98 No one can look upon the fear of  God unterrified unless he has accepted the Atonement and learned
Tx:19.100 To look upon the fear of  God does need some preparation. Only the sane can look on stark
Tx:19.100  complete forgiveness, you still stand unforgiving. You are afraid of  God because you fear each other. Those you do not forgive you
Tx:19.103  it to you? For his redemption, he will give you yours as surely as  God created every living thing and loves it. And he will give it
Tx:19.105  your brother is before you would condemn him. And offer thanks to  God that he is holy and has been given the gift of holiness for
Tx:19.106  the gift is given. Look on your brother, and see in him the gift of  God you would receive. It is almost Easter, the time of resurrection.
Tx:19.108  not to be seen, but known. And knowing, nothing in the plan  God has established for salvation will be left undone. This is the
Tx:19.108  without which is the journey meaningless. Here is the peace of  God, given to you eternally by Him. Here is the rest and quiet that
Tx:19.108  you owe each other, the debt of gratitude you offer to the Son of  God in thanks for what he is and what his Father created him to be.
Tx:19.110  that it would lift you far beyond the veil and place the Son of  God safely within the sure protection of his Father. Here is the only
Tx:20.2  with palms and ends with lilies, the white and holy sign the Son of  God is innocent. Let no dark sign of crucifixion intervene between
Tx:20.2  life, not death. And we honor the perfect purity of the Son of  God and not his sins. Offer each other the gift of lilies, not the
Tx:20.3  and yet this holy week is the symbol of the whole journey the Son of  God has undertaken. He started with the sign of victory the promise
Tx:20.7  yourself. Here is your gift to both; your judgment on the Son of  God for what he is. Forget not that it is your savior to whom the
Tx:20.8 I have great need for lilies, for the Son of  God has not forgiven me. And can I offer him forgiveness when he
Tx:20.8  for me that I may be forgiven and you may look upon the Son of  God as whole. But look you first upon the altar in your chosen home
Tx:20.11  see no thorns, no strangers, and no obstacles to peace. The fear of  God is nothing to you now. Who is afraid to look upon illusions,
Tx:20.11  has become the greatest power for the undoing of illusion that  God Himself could give. For what God gave the Holy Spirit, you have
Tx:20.11  for the undoing of illusion that God Himself could give. For what  God gave the Holy Spirit, you have received. The Son of God looks
Tx:20.11  For what God gave the Holy Spirit, you have received. The Son of  God looks unto you for his release. For you have asked for and been
Tx:20.11  final obstacle and see no thorns nor nails to crucify the Son of  God and crown him king of death. Your chosen home is on the other
Tx:20.12  no fear in love. The song of Easter is the glad refrain the Son of  God was never crucified. Let us lift up our eyes together, not in
Tx:20.14  peace of Easter, in which we join in glad awareness that the Son of  God is risen from the past and has awakened to the present. Now is he
Tx:20.22  it as you see it is not outside you. Seek not to make the Son of  God adjust to his insanity. There is a stranger in him who
Tx:20.23  seeing universe of truth you ask, “How shall I look upon the Son of  God?”
Tx:20.24  How happy did it make you? Did you meet with joy to bless the Son of  God and give him thanks for all the happiness which he held out to
Tx:20.24  held out to you? Did you recognize each other as the eternal gift of  God to you? Did you see the holiness that shone in both of you to
Tx:20.25  you shall this day enter with him to Paradise and know the peace of  God.
Tx:20.27  fear without? The innocent see safety, and the pure in heart see  God within His Son and look unto the Son to lead them to the Father.
Tx:20.27  be? Each of you now will lead the other to the Father as surely as  God created His Son holy and kept him so. In your brother is the
Tx:20.28  you lose. It is not up to you to give power at all. Power is of  God, given by Him and reawakened by the Holy Spirit, Who knows that
Tx:20.28  illusion of what you are, the Holy Spirit merely gives everything to  God, Who has already given and received all that is true. The untrue
Tx:20.29  the Holy Spirit interprets it.] It is the reawakening of the laws of  God in minds that have established other laws and given them power to
Tx:20.29  have established other laws and given them power to enforce what  God created not.
Tx:20.30  that you see in him, you see your own. For this you share. What  God has given follows His laws and His alone. Nor is it possible for
Tx:20.31  choose freedom will experience only its results. Their power is of  God, and they will give it only to what God has given to share with
Tx:20.31  results. Their power is of God, and they will give it only to what  God has given to share with them. Nothing but this can touch them,
Tx:20.31  for they see only this, sharing their power according to the Will of  God. And thus their freedom is established and maintained. It is
Tx:20.33  a new world rises in which sin can enter not, and where the Son of  God can enter without fear, and where he rests a while to forget
Tx:20.34  the face of Christ shines on them, and they remember the laws of  God, forgetting all the rest and yearning only to have His laws
Tx:20.35  seems impossible to you. But ask yourself if it is possible that  God would have a plan for your salvation that does not work. Once
Tx:20.36  It rests on you. And what can be more certain than a Son of  God?
Tx:20.38  relationship, which has the power to hold the unity of the Son of  God together. You give to one another for everyone, and in your gift
Tx:20.43  you exchange this gift for any other? This gift returns the laws of  God to your remembrance. And merely by remembering them, the laws
Tx:20.44  love and perfect confidence in what He sees. He knows the Son of  God and shares his Father's certainty the universe rests in his
Tx:20.44  as his Father knows him. And yet it is impossible the confidence of  God should be misplaced.
Tx:20.45 The meaning of the Son of  God lies solely in his relationship with his Creator. If it were
Tx:20.45  else. And this is wholly loving and forever. Yet has the Son of  God invented an unholy relationship between him and his Father. His
Tx:20.50  “mystery” of separation perceived in awe and held in reverence. What  God would have not be is here kept “safe” from Him. But what you do
Tx:20.50  you fear within your brother and would not see in him is what makes  God seem fearful to you and kept unknown.
Tx:20.52  that. The instant that the mad idea of making your relationship with  God unholy seemed to be possible, all your relationships were made
Tx:20.54 The holy relationship reflects the true relationship the Son of  God has with his Father in reality. The Holy Spirit rests within it
Tx:20.55  of water and set uncertainly upon oblivion. Here does the Son of  God stop briefly by to offer his devotion to death's idols, and then
Tx:20.57  and it has meaning. It is as like your real relationship with  God as equal things are like unto each other. Idolatry is past and
Tx:20.57  you fear each other a little yet; perhaps a shadow of the fear of  God remains with you. Yet what is that to those who have been given
Tx:20.69  to see his sinlessness, as it is yours. And bless the Son of  God in your relationship, nor see in him what you have made of him.
Tx:20.70 The Holy Spirit guarantees that what  God willed and gave you shall be yours. This is your purpose now, and
Tx:20.77  Think but an instant just on this—you can behold the holiness  God gave His Son. And never need you think that there is something
Tx:21.2  See it as damned, and all you see is what you did to hurt the Son of  God. If you behold disaster and catastrophe, you tried to crucify
Tx:21.2  to crucify him. If you see holiness and hope, you joined the Will of  God to set him free. There is no choice that lies between these two
Tx:21.11 This is the vision of the Son of  God, whom you know well. Here is the sight of him who knows his
Tx:21.11  ever be as dear to you as is this ancient hymn [of love] the Son of  God sings to his Father still.
Tx:21.12  of this song. And they will look upon the vision of the Son of  God, remembering who he is they sing of. What is a miracle but this
Tx:21.17 It is impossible the Son of  God be merely driven by events outside of him. It is impossible that
Tx:21.17  accident. No accident nor chance is possible within the universe as  God created it, outside of which is nothing. Suffer, and you decided
Tx:21.17  happy, and you gave the power of decision to Him Who must decide for  God for you. This is the little gift you offer to the Holy Spirit,
Tx:21.20  an idea that it is possible that things should happen to the Son of  God without his will and thus without the Will of his Creator,
Tx:21.21  must forever be. This is the statement that he has the power to make  God powerless and so to take it for himself and leave himself without
Tx:21.21  and so to take it for himself and leave himself without what  God has willed for him. This is the mad idea you have enshrined upon
Tx:21.31  indeed a little feat for such a power. For faith can keep the Son of  God in chains as long as he believes he is in chains. And when he
Tx:21.33 It is impossible that the Son of  God lack faith, but he can choose where he would have it be.
Tx:21.33  given to illusions does not lack power, for by it does the Son of  God believe that he is powerless. Thus is he faithless to himself,
Tx:21.42  not to look inward, for if you do, your eyes will light on sin, and  God will strike you blind. This you believe, and so you do not look.
Tx:21.49  than what you would prefer to overlook. The still small Voice for  God is not drowned out by all the ego's raucous screams and senseless
Tx:21.53  your will and your consent. It must have been accepted by the Son of  God, for what God wills for him he must receive. For God wills not
Tx:21.53  your consent. It must have been accepted by the Son of God, for what  God wills for him he must receive. For God wills not apart from
Tx:21.53  by the Son of God, for what God wills for him he must receive. For  God wills not apart from him, nor does the Will of God wait upon time
Tx:21.53  receive. For God wills not apart from him, nor does the Will of  God wait upon time to be accomplished. Therefore, what joined the
Tx:21.53  upon time to be accomplished. Therefore, what joined the Will of  God must be in you now, being eternal. You must have set aside a
Tx:21.54  unaware of what is so, for this must have an answer if the plan of  God for your salvation is complete. And it must be complete because
Tx:21.61 No one can think but for himself, as  God thinks not without His Son. Only were both in bodies could this
Tx:21.64 If you choose sin instead of healing, you would condemn the Son of  God to what can never be corrected. You tell him by your choice that
Tx:21.65  you and seeks not to frighten you. The power to heal the Son of  God is given you because he must be one with you. You are
Tx:21.68 The Son of  God is always blessed as one. And as his gratitude goes out to you
Tx:21.69 The power that you have over the Son of  God is not a threat to his reality. It but attests to it. Where
Tx:21.69  already? And who could bind him but himself if he deny his freedom?  God is not mocked; no more His Son can be imprisoned save by his own
Tx:21.70  are little could see attraction there. Treachery to the Son of  God is the defense of those who do not identify with him. And you are
Tx:21.71 No one believes the Son of  God is powerless. And those who see themselves as helpless must
Tx:21.71  themselves as helpless must believe that they are not the Son of  God. What can they be except his enemy? And what can they do but
Tx:21.71  afraid, alone and not communicating, fearful the power of the Son of  God will strike them dead and raising up their helplessness against
Tx:21.87 —no change of any kind. It is unshakable as is the love of  God for His creation. Sure in its vision as its Creator is in what He
Tx:21.88  ask because desire is a request, an asking for, and made by one whom  God Himself will never fail to answer. God has already given him all
Tx:21.88  for, and made by one whom God Himself will never fail to answer.  God has already given him all that he really wants. Yet what he is
Tx:21.88  given him all that he really wants. Yet what he is uncertain of,  God cannot give. For he does not desire it while he remains
Tx:22.1 Take pity on yourselves, so long enslaved. Rejoice whom  God hath joined have come together and need no longer look on sin
Tx:22.4  apparent. Here is the golden circle where you recognize the Son of  God. For what is born into a holy relationship can never end.
Tx:22.5 Let reason take another step. If you attack whom  God would heal and hate the one He loves, then you and your Creator
Tx:22.7  would tell you it cannot be true because you do not understand it.  God has no secrets. He does not lead you through a world of misery,
Tx:22.13 Be certain  God did not entrust His Son to the unworthy. Nothing but what is part
Tx:22.15  for you, and yours with His. And who is drawn to Christ is drawn to  God as surely as both are drawn to every holy relationship, the home
Tx:22.24  we have seen many times before. Only if it were possible the Son of  God could leave his Father's Mind, make himself different, and oppose
Tx:22.26  him. Yet it is possible to recognize him for what he is if  God would have it so. What God has given to your holy relationship is
Tx:22.26  to recognize him for what he is if God would have it so. What  God has given to your holy relationship is there. For what He gave
Tx:22.26  you gave him for the one he has in truth? Receive of him what  God has given him for you, not what you tried to give yourself.
Tx:22.27  circle that extends forever is your holy relationship, beloved of  God Himself. How still it rests, in time and yet beyond, immortal yet
Tx:22.28  you to remain in misery? Heaven is the home of perfect purity, and  God created it for you. Look on your holy brother, sinless as
Tx:22.43 To all who share the love of  God, the grace is given to be the givers of what they have received.
Tx:22.47  are nothing. In truth you stand together with nothing in between.  God holds your hands, and what can separate whom He has joined as one
Tx:22.47  would defend against. Yet it remains impossible to keep love out.  God rests with you in quiet, undefended and wholly undefending, for
Tx:22.48  one? Which is the stronger? Is it this tiny mouse or everything that  God created? You are not joined together by this mouse but by the

Tx:22.48  by this mouse but by the Will of God. And can a mouse betray whom  God has joined?
Tx:22.53  think how He can change the role of means and end so easily in what  God loves and would have free forever. But be you rather grateful
Tx:22.57  a mistake—a shadow through which you walk completely undismayed?  God would let nothing interfere with those whose wills are His[. And
Tx:22.59  it nor limit it in any way. He will join to it all the power that  God has given Him to make each little gift of love a source of
Tx:22.60  that would deny the power of your will. Think you the Will of  God is powerless? Is this humility? You do not see what this belief
Tx:22.60  for here lies buried the heavy anchor that seems to keep the fear of  God in place, unmovable and solid as a rock. While this remains, so
Tx:22.61 Who can attack the Son of  God and not attack his Father? How can God's Son be weak and frail
Tx:22.62 If you were one with  God and recognized this oneness, you would know His power is
Tx:23.1  the belief in weakness, and what is weak is not the Will of  God. Being opposed to it, it is its “enemy.” And God is feared as an
Tx:23.1  not the Will of God. Being opposed to it, it is its “enemy.” And  God is feared as an opposing will.
Tx:23.7 The memory of  God comes to the quiet mind. It cannot come where there is conflict,
Tx:23.7  you identify with it? Surely you realize the ego is at war with  God. Certain it is it has no enemy. Yet just as certain is its fixed
Tx:23.8 Do you not realize a war against yourself would be a war on  God? Is victory conceivable? And if it were, is this a victory that
Tx:23.8  if it were, is this a victory that you would want? The death of  God, if it were possible, would be your death. Is this a victory?
Tx:23.8  to defeat because it thinks that triumph over you is possible. And  God thinks otherwise. This is no war—only the mad belief the Will
Tx:23.8  thinks otherwise. This is no war—only the mad belief the Will of  God can be attacked and overthrown. You may identify with this
Tx:23.9 Be certain that it is impossible  God and the ego, or yourself and it, will ever meet. You seem to
Tx:23.10  before your sight into the giver of your peace. Your “enemy” was  God Himself, to Whom all conflict, triumph, and attack of any kind
Tx:23.10  He loves you perfectly, completely, and eternally. The Son of  God at war with his Creator is a condition as ridiculous as nature
Tx:23.11  apart. The war against yourself was undertaken to teach the Son of  God that he is not himself and not his Father's Son. For this, the
Tx:23.13 What you remember is a part of you. For you must be as  God created you. Truth does not fight against illusions, nor do
Tx:23.13  radiant, apart from conflict, untouched and quiet in the peace of  God.
Tx:23.14  with each other. And this occurs whenever you look on anything that  God created with anything but love. Conflict is fearful, for it is
Tx:23.14  madness be undone for you and turn in peace to the remembrance of  God, still shining in your quiet mind.
Tx:23.16  let forgiveness sweep away all trace of the belief in sin that keeps  God homeless and His Son with Him. You are not strangers in the house
Tx:23.16  homeless and His Son with Him. You are not strangers in the house of  God. Welcome your brother to the home where God has set him in
Tx:23.16  in the house of God. Welcome your brother to the home where  God has set him in serenity and peace and dwells with him. Illusions
Tx:23.17 How can the resting-place of  God turn on itself and seek to overcome the One Who dwells there? And
Tx:23.17  the One Who dwells there? And think what happens when the house of  God perceives itself divided. The altar disappears, the light grows
Tx:23.18  be; where either goes the other disappears. So is the memory of  God obscured in minds that have become illusion's battleground. Yet
Tx:23.22  is thus interpreted as an irrevocable sentence upon himself, which  God Himself is powerless to overcome. Sin cannot be remitted, being
Tx:23.22  to overcome. Sin cannot be remitted, being the belief the Son of  God can make mistakes for which his own destruction becomes
Tx:23.23  join. One becomes weak, the other strong by his defeat. And fear of  God and of each other now appears as sensible, made real by what the
Tx:23.23  of each other now appears as sensible, made real by what the Son of  God has done both to himself and his Creator. The arrogance on which
Tx:23.24  third preposterous belief that seems to make chaos eternal. For if  God cannot be mistaken, then He must accept his Son's belief in
Tx:23.25 See how the fear of  God is reinforced by this third principle. Now it becomes impossible
Tx:23.25  attack. And now is conflict made inevitable and beyond the help of  God. And now salvation must remain impossible because the savior has
Tx:23.26  thus becomes a myth, and vengeance, not forgiveness, is the Will of  God. From where all this begins, there is no sight of help that can
Tx:23.26  of help that can succeed. Only destruction can be the outcome. And  God Himself seems to be siding with it to overcome His Son. Think not
Tx:23.31  your brother cease his attack on you for what you stole. Nor will  God end His vengeance upon both, for in His madness He must have this
Tx:23.32  the laws of chaos serve. These are the means by which the laws of  God appear to be reversed. Here do the laws of sin appear to hold
Tx:23.33  Give thanks unto the hero on love's throne, who saved the Son of  God for fear and death!
Tx:23.37 There is no life outside of Heaven. Where  God created life, there life must be. In any state apart from Heaven,
Tx:23.42  charitable it may seem to be, a blessing and a sign the Voice for  God speaks through you to your brother? The wrapping does not make
Tx:23.47 The fear of  God is fear of life and not of death. Yet He remains the only place
Tx:23.49  God does not share His function with a body. He gave the function to
Tx:23.50 The lovely light of your relationship is like the love of  God. It cannot yet assume the holy function God gave His Son, for
Tx:23.50  is like the love of God. It cannot yet assume the holy function  God gave His Son, for your forgiveness of one another is not complete
Tx:23.52  place on high but quickly choose a miracle instead of murder. And  God Himself and all the lights of Heaven will gently lean to you and
Tx:23.52  where He would have you, and no illusion can attack the peace of  God together with His Son.
Tx:23.55 Those with the strength of  God in their awareness could never think of battle. What could they
Tx:23.55  that offers less, yet could be wanted more? Who with the love of  God upholding him could find the choice of miracles or murder hard to
Tx:24.1  Given this state the mind is quiet, and the condition in which  God is remembered is attained. It is not necessary to tell Him what
Tx:24.1  a shadow can hold back the Will that holds the universe secure?  God does not wait upon illusions to let Him be Himself. No more His
Tx:24.2  and freedom sinlessness. There is no substitute for peace. What  God creates has no alternative. The truth arises from what He
Tx:24.6 What  God created cannot be attacked, for there is nothing in the universe
Tx:24.8  not cut off from one another. What you keep is lost to you.  God gave you both Himself, and to remember this is now the only
Tx:24.10 The fear of  God and of each other comes from each unrecognized belief in
Tx:24.10  For each demands the other bow to it against his will. And  God Himself must honor it or suffer vengeance. Every twinge of malice
Tx:24.11  the truth. For what is specialness but an attack upon the Will of  God? You love your brother not while it is this you would defend
Tx:24.13  goal that would defeat salvation and thus run counter to the Will of  God. To value specialness is to esteem an alien will to which
Tx:24.15  answers? Its tiny answer, soundless in the melody which pours from  God to you eternally in loving praise of what you are, is all you
Tx:24.15  strain your ears to hear its soundless voice, and yet the Call of  God Himself is soundless to you.
Tx:24.16  can defend your specialness, but never will you hear the Voice for  God beside it. They speak a different language and they fall on
Tx:24.17 The shining radiance of the Son of  God—so like his Father that the memory of Him springs instantly to
Tx:24.17  Is it a sacrifice to give up nothing and to receive the love of  God forever?
Tx:24.19  attack you thought you made on him has taken from him the gift that  God would have him give to you. His need to give it is as great as
Tx:24.19  for your forgiveness only that he may return it unto you. It is not  God Who has condemned His Son. But only you, to save his specialness
Tx:24.20  to falter now. Just one step more and every vestige of the fear of  God will melt away in love. Your brother's specialness and yours
Tx:24.20  illusions which have reached this final obstacle that seems to make  God and His Heaven so remote that they cannot be reached. Here in
Tx:24.21  of himself as part of you, as you for his. You are alike to  God as God is to Himself. He is not special, for He would not keep
Tx:24.21  of himself as part of you, as you for his. You are alike to God as  God is to Himself. He is not special, for He would not keep one part
Tx:24.22 Give him but what he has, remembering  God gave Himself to both of you in equal love that both might share
Tx:24.22  to him and him to you because He gave Himself. What is the same as  God is one with Him. And only specialness could make the truth of God
Tx:24.22  as God is one with Him. And only specialness could make the truth of  God and you as one seem anything but Heaven and the hope of peace
Tx:24.24 The hope of specialness makes it seem possible  God made the body as the prison-house which keeps His Son from Him.
Tx:24.24  which keeps His Son from Him. For it demands a special place  God cannot enter and a hiding-place where none is welcome but your
Tx:24.24  safe from all intrusions of sanity upon illusions, safe from  God, and safe for conflict everlasting. Here are the gates of hell
Tx:24.24  rule in madness and in loneliness your special kingdom, apart from  God, away from truth and from salvation.
Tx:24.25 The key you threw away  God gave your brother, whose holy hands would offer it to you when
Tx:24.25  from an illusion of what you are to the acceptance of yourself as  God created you.
Tx:24.27  strongly defended with all your puny might against the Will of  God. And thus it stands against yourself; your enemy, not God's. So
Tx:24.27  your enemy, not God's. So does it seem to split you off from  God and make you separate from Him as its defender. You would protect
Tx:24.27  make you separate from Him as its defender. You would protect what  God created not. And yet this idol that seems to give you power has
Tx:24.29 Without foundation nothing is secure. Would  God have left His Son in such a state, where safety has no meaning?
Tx:24.29  be unforgiving, for that is what it is—a secret vow that what  God wants for you will never be and that you will oppose His Will
Tx:24.30  God asks for your forgiveness. He would have no separation, like an
Tx:24.30  to them and left behind. Salvation challenges not even death. And  God Himself, Who knows that death is not your will, must say, “Thy
Tx:24.32  They hate the call that would awaken them, and they curse  God because He did not make their dream reality. Curse God and die,
Tx:24.32  they curse God because He did not make their dream reality. Curse  God and die, but not by Him Who made not death, but only in the
Tx:24.32  but only in the dream. Open your eyes a little; see the savior  God gave to you that you might look on him and give him back his
Tx:24.33 The slaves of specialness will yet be free. Such is the Will of  God and of His Son. Would God condemn Himself to hell and to
Tx:24.33  will yet be free. Such is the Will of God and of His Son. Would  God condemn Himself to hell and to damnation? And do you will
Tx:24.33  to damnation? And do you will that this be done unto your savior?  God calls to you from him to join His Will to save you both from
Tx:24.33  of nails upon his hands that he holds out for your forgiveness.  God asks your mercy on His Son and on Himself. Deny them not. They
Tx:24.39 Do not defend this senseless dream in which  God is bereft of what He loves and you remain beyond salvation. Only
Tx:24.39  what you appointed to be your savior and crucified the one whom  God has given you instead. So are you bound with him, for you are
Tx:24.45  leads you there in gentleness and blessing all the way. His love for  God replaces all the fear you thought you saw within yourself. His
Tx:24.45  and loves. And seeks it still, that each might offer you the love of  God.
Tx:24.49  scatter with the wind and turn to dust. In him is your assurance  God is here and with you now. While he is what he is, you can be
Tx:24.49  and with you now. While he is what he is, you can be sure that  God is knowable and will be known to you. For He could never leave
Tx:24.50 Without you there would be a lack in  God, a Heaven incomplete, a Son without a Father. There could be no
Tx:24.50  a Father. There could be no universe and no reality. For what  God wills is whole and part of Him because His Will is One. Nothing
Tx:24.50  is but is alive in Him. Your brother's holiness shows you that  God is one with him and you—that what he has is yours because you
Tx:24.51 Nothing is lost to you in all the universe. Nothing that  God created has He failed to lay before you lovingly as yours
Tx:24.51  conceived of you before the world began and as He knows you still.  God changes not His Mind about His Son with passing circumstance,
Tx:24.53  that is made, not of itself, but through the Voice that speaks for  God in everything that lives and shares His Being.
Tx:24.54  the face of Christ from him, and you as well. And let the fear of  God no longer hold the vision you were meant to see from you. Your
Tx:24.55  is but a body? Where is your peace but in his holiness? And where is  God Himself but in that part of Him He set forever in your brother's
Tx:24.58  see him not as prisoner to them. It cannot be what governs part of  God holds not for all the rest. You place yourself under the laws you
Tx:24.58  the laws you see as ruling him. Think, then, how great the love of  God for you must be that He has given you a part of Him to save from
Tx:24.58  doubt but that your specialness will disappear before the Will of  God, Who loves each part of Him with equal love [and care]. The
Tx:24.60 —with little effort and with little time and with the power of  God maintaining it and promising success. Yet of the two, it is
Tx:24.60  do you deem this cost too heavy. But a tiny willingness, a nod to  God, a greeting to the Christ in you, you find a burden wearisome and
Tx:24.60  too heavy to be borne. Yet to the dedication to the truth as  God established it no sacrifice is asked, no strain called forth, and
Tx:24.62  who are son to you, that you might share the Fatherhood of  God, not snatch it from Him. What is this son that you have made to
Tx:24.62  takes the place of yours? And where are they, now that the host of  God has found another son which he prefers to them?
Tx:24.63 The memory of  God shines not alone. What is within your brother still contains all
Tx:24.67  the purpose which you serve. Here you are but means, along with it.  God is a Means as well as End. In Heaven, means and end are one, and
Tx:24.72  separates each from all aspects with a different purpose. The Son of  God retains His Father's Will. The son of man perceives an alien will
Tx:25.2  He is. The son of man is not the risen Christ. Yet does the Son of  God abide exactly where he is and walks with him within his holiness,
Tx:25.7 You are the means for  God—not separate nor with a life apart from His. His Life is
Tx:25.9  still is one with both the Father and the Son, He knows the Will of  God and what you really will. But this is understood by mind
Tx:25.16  brother as a body, it is but this you do. The masterpiece that  God has set within this frame is all there is to see. The body holds
Tx:25.16  body holds it for a while without obscuring it in any way. Yet what  God has created needs no frame, for what He has created He supports
Tx:25.17 The Holy Spirit is the frame  God set around the part of Him that you would see as separate. Yet
Tx:25.17  the picture when you choose to see it in its place. The frame that  God has given it but serves His purpose, not yours apart from His. It
Tx:25.17  that obscures the picture and cherishes the frame instead of it. Yet  God has set His masterpiece within a frame that will endure forever
Tx:25.17  dust. But think you not the picture is destroyed in any way. What  God creates is safe from all corruption, unchanged and perfect in
Tx:25.18  this face was ever darkened because you saw it in a frame of death.  God kept it safe that you might look on it and see the holiness that
Tx:25.19  upon in him. He is the frame in which your holiness is set, and what  God gave him must be given you. However much he overlooks the
Tx:25.20  known to you His love if you but share His praise of what He loves?  God cherishes creation as the perfect Father that He is. And so His
Tx:25.20  happiness complete and theirs along with His. The gratitude of  God Himself is freely offered to everyone who shares His purpose. It
Tx:25.22 You are the same, as  God Himself is one and not divided in His Will. And you must have one
Tx:25.26  maintained without some link that kept it still within the laws of  God; not as the law itself upholds the universe as God created it,
Tx:25.26  the laws of God; not as the law itself upholds the universe as  God created it, but in some form adapted to the need the Son of God
Tx:25.26  as God created it, but in some form adapted to the need the Son of  God believes he has. Corrected error is the error's end. And thus has
Tx:25.26  believes he has. Corrected error is the error's end. And thus has  God protected still His Son, even in error. There is another purpose
Tx:25.31 The Son of  God could never sin, but he can wish for what would hurt him. And
Tx:25.33  and of joy. Even in Heaven does this law obtain. The Son of  God creates to bring him joy, sharing his Father's purpose in his own
Tx:25.35 Would you not do this for the love of  God? And for yourself? For think what it would do for you. Your
Tx:25.36  and its loveliness for you. What aim can supersede the Will of  God and of His Son that Heaven be restored to him for whom it was
Tx:25.37  to attack is gone, and so there is no reason to perceive the Son of  God as other than he is. The need for guilt is gone because it has no
Tx:25.38 Attack makes Christ your enemy and  God along with Him. Must you not be afraid with “enemies” like these?
Tx:25.38  the wish and leave him innocent? And who would see the Son of  God as innocent and wish him dead? Christ stands before you both each
Tx:25.39  And yet beneath the ego's senseless shrieks, such is the call that  God has given him that you might hear in him His Call to you and
Tx:25.39  you might hear in him His Call to you and answer by returning unto  God what is His own.
Tx:25.40 The Son of  God asks only this of you—that you return to him what is his due
Tx:25.40  him of all the joy he would have found if he fulfilled the role  God gave to him. But think not Heaven is lost to him alone. Nor can
Tx:25.41  will be your joy, when he is free to offer you the gift of sight  God gave to him for you! He has no need but this—that you allow him
Tx:25.41  no need but this—that you allow him freedom to complete the task  God gave to him. Remembering but this—that what he does you do
Tx:25.41  have for you until you see him differently and let him be what  God appointed that he be to you.
Tx:25.42 Against the hatred that the Son of  God may cherish toward himself is God believed to be without the
Tx:25.42 Against the hatred that the Son of God may cherish toward himself is  God believed to be without the power to save what He created from the
Tx:25.42  created from the pain of hell. But in the love he shows himself is  God made free to let His Will be done. In each of you, you see the
Tx:25.42  of you, you see the picture of your own belief in what the Will of  God must be for you. In your forgiveness will you understand His love
Tx:25.43 The grace of  God rests gently on forgiving eyes, and everything they look on
Tx:25.43  For he would only heal and only bless. And being in accord with what  God wills, he has the power to heal and bless all those he looks on
Tx:25.43  the power to heal and bless all those he looks on with the grace of  God upon his sight.
Tx:25.44  he wants to see? The wish to see calls down the grace of  God upon your eyes and brings the gift of light that makes sight
Tx:25.45 Will you behold your brother?  God is glad to have you look on him. He does not will your savior be
Tx:25.47 Here, where the laws of  God do not prevail in perfect form, can he yet do one perfect thing
Tx:25.48  as he always did. The specialness he chose to hurt himself did  God appoint to be the means for his salvation from the very instant
Tx:25.49  All that you made can serve salvation easily and well. The Son of  God can make no choice the Holy Spirit cannot employ on his behalf
Tx:25.49  you see it as your special function in the plan to save the Son of  God from all attack and let him understand that he is safe, as he
Tx:25.50  foundation sure as love, dependable as Heaven, and as strong as  God Himself. The world is safe from love to everyone who thinks sin
Tx:25.50  thinks sin possible. Nor will it change. Yet is it possible what  God created not should share the attributes of His creation when it
Tx:25.51  If you could realize nothing is changeless but the Will of  God, this course would not be difficult for you. For it is this that
Tx:25.52  before and think of it more carefully. It must be so that either  God is mad or is this world a place of madness. Not one Thought of
Tx:25.52  If one belief so deeply valued here were true, then every Thought  God ever had is an illusion. And if but one Thought of His is true,
Tx:25.52  it is not. For only this decision can you make. The rest is up to  God and not to you.
Tx:25.53  the world upholds is to deny your Father's sanity and yours. For  God and His beloved Son do not think differently. And it is the
Tx:25.54  And one in which nothing is contradicted that would lead the Son of  God to sanity and joy. Nothing attests to death and cruelty, to
Tx:25.56 Your special function is the special form in which the fact that  God is not insane appears most sensible and meaningful to you. The
Tx:25.56  place and time and all that you believe must limit you. The Son of  God cannot be bound by time nor place nor anything God did not will.
Tx:25.56  you. The Son of God cannot be bound by time nor place nor anything  God did not will. Yet if His Will is seen as madness, then the form
Tx:25.57  to entrust salvation to the insane. Because He is not mad has  God appointed One as sane as He to raise a saner world to meet the
Tx:25.60 The whole belief that someone loses but reflects the underlying tenet  God must be insane. For in this world, it seems that one must gain
Tx:25.60  that one must gain because another lost. If this were true, then  God is mad indeed! But what is this belief except a form of the more
Tx:25.60  be the total cost of any gain at all. You who believe that  God is mad, look carefully at this and understand that it must be
Tx:25.60  look carefully at this and understand that it must be that either  God or this must be insane, but hardly both.
Tx:25.62  insanity would make you sane and give you what you want. That either  God or you must lose to madness because your aims can not be
Tx:25.62  is not maintained at any cost. No one can suffer for the Will of  God to be fulfilled. Salvation is His Will because you share it.
Tx:25.62  you share it. Not for you alone but for the Self which is the Son of  God. He cannot lose, for if he could, the loss would be his
Tx:25.66  by being paid, it matters not by whom. Can this be justice?  God knows not of this. But justice does He know and knows it well.
Tx:25.68  entail. And so they fear the Holy Spirit and perceive the “wrath” of  God in Him. [They are unjust indeed to Him.] Nor can they trust Him
Tx:25.68  depends on sin's stability. And they perceive the “threat” of what  God knows as justice to be more destructive to themselves and to
Tx:25.72  you. He knows that Heaven is richer made by each one you accept. And  God rejoices as His Son receives what loving justice knows to be his
Tx:25.72  the same does mercy stand at God's right hand and give the Son of  God the power to forgive himself of sin.
Tx:25.73  all the holiness that is in him, however much he recognize it not.  God knows of no injustice. He would not allow His Son be judged by
Tx:25.73  and not against his life? No justice would be given him by you. Yet  God ensured that justice would be done unto the Son He loves and
Tx:25.75  of love and justice if you understand it is impossible the Son of  God could merit vengeance. You need not perceive in every
Tx:25.77  sin, and to the life eternal, joyous and complete in every way, as  God appointed for His holy Son. This is the only justice Heaven
Tx:25.77  is just and can perceive what justice must accord the Son of  God. Let love decide and never fear that you in your unfairness will
Tx:25.79  it is given out. Each gift [received] but adds to the supply. For  God is fair. He does not fight against His Son's reluctance to
Tx:25.80  least is seen unfairly. Thus is justice not accorded to the Son of  God. When anyone is seen as losing, he has been condemned. And
Tx:25.82  on justice. Not as it is seen through this world's eyes, but as  God knows it, and as knowledge is reflected in the sight the Holy
Tx:26.4  demands that they be separate and without the other. The memory of  God must be denied if any sacrifice is asked of anyone. What
Tx:26.7  life to you, who cannot die because his sinlessness is known to  God and can no more be sacrificed by you than can the light in you be
Tx:26.7  of life and make your eyes and ears bear witness to the death of  God and of His holy Son, think not that you have power to make of
Tx:26.7  of His holy Son, think not that you have power to make of them what  God willed not they be. In Heaven God's Son is not imprisoned in a
Tx:26.9  is the Holy Spirit's special function but to release the holy Son of  God from the imprisonment he made to keep himself from justice?
Tx:26.11  and could result in gain for anyone. If this were true, then  God would be unfair, sin would be possible, attack be justified, and
Tx:26.12  the rest. Think not the limits you impose on what you see can limit  God in any way.
Tx:26.13  errors. Every problem is an error. It does injustice to the Son of  God and therefore is not true. The Holy Spirit does not evaluate
Tx:26.13  have no properties to Him. They are mistakes from which the Son of  God is suffering, but needlessly. And so He takes the thorns and
Tx:26.14  is total. There is no such thing as partial justice. If the Son of  God is guilty, then is he condemned, and he deserves no mercy from
Tx:26.14  is guilty, then is he condemned, and he deserves no mercy from the  God of justice. But ask not God to punish him because you find him
Tx:26.14  and he deserves no mercy from the God of justice. But ask not  God to punish him because you find him guilty and would have him
Tx:26.14  to punish him because you find him guilty and would have him die.  God offers you the means to see his innocence. Would it be fair to
Tx:26.15 If  God is just, then can there be no problems that justice cannot solve.
Tx:26.16  universal blessing. Sacrifice is gone. And in its place the love of  God can be remembered and will shine away all memory of sacrifice and
Tx:26.17  God cannot be remembered until justice is loved instead of feared. He
Tx:26.18 Complexity is not of  God. How could it be, when all He knows is one? He knows of one
Tx:26.21 Nothing the Son of  God believes can be destroyed. But what is truth to him must be
Tx:26.28  no little miracles to lay before the gate of Heaven. Here the Son of  God Himself comes to receive each gift that brings him nearer to his
Tx:26.29  be the joy in Heaven when you join the mighty chorus to the love of  God!
Tx:26.32  God gave His Teacher to replace the one you made, not to conflict
Tx:26.32  that tiny instant time was gone, for that was all it ever was. What  God gave Answer to is answered and is gone.
Tx:26.34  disappeared too quickly to affect the simple knowledge of the Son of  God can hardly still be there for you to choose to be your teacher.
Tx:26.37  that fearful instant kept, when Heaven seemed to disappear and  God was feared and made a symbol of your hate?
Tx:26.38  been so long ago corrected and undone. Can sin withstand the Will of  God? Can it be up to you to see the past and put it in the present?
Tx:26.39 Would  God allow His Son to lose his way along a road long since a memory of
Tx:26.40 The Son that  God created is as free as God created him. He was reborn the instant
Tx:26.40 The Son that God created is as free as  God created him. He was reborn the instant that he chose to die
Tx:26.40  you not forgive him now because he made an error in the past that  God remembers not and is not there? Now you are shifting back and
Tx:26.41  This terrible illusion was denied in but the time it took for  God to give His answer to illusion for all time and every
Tx:26.43  that lies at Heaven's gate. There is no hindrance to the Will of  God nor any need that you repeat again a journey that was over long
Tx:26.45  worthy of God's Son, nor one with which he could remain content. Yet  God has given him a better Friend in Whom all power in earth and
Tx:26.45  another friend to take His place. There is no other friend. What  God appointed has no substitute, for what illusion can replace the
Tx:26.46  with shadows is alone indeed, and loneliness is not the Will of  God. Would you allow one shadow to usurp the throne that God
Tx:26.46  the Will of God. Would you allow one shadow to usurp the throne that  God appointed for your Friend if you but realized its emptiness has
Tx:26.46  friend, for if you do, it can but take the place of Him whom  God has called your Friend. And it is He who is your only Friend in
Tx:26.48  but in the world of shadows and illusions built on sin. The Son of  God perceives what he would see, because perception is a wish
Tx:26.49  of knowledge is not true of anything that is apart from it. Yet has  God given answer to the world of sickness which applies to all its
Tx:26.49  it operates in time where it is needed. Yet because it is of  God, the laws of time do not affect its workings. It is in this
Tx:26.51  one is true in any way, and all must yield with equal ease to what  God gave as answer to them all. God's Will is One. And any wish that
Tx:26.52  all creation be subjected to the laws of two opposing powers until  God becomes impatient, splits the world apart, and relegates attack
Tx:26.56  no sin. And every miracle is possible the instant that the Son of  God perceives his wishes and the Will of God are one.
Tx:26.56  the instant that the Son of God perceives his wishes and the Will of  God are one.
Tx:26.57 What is the Will of  God? He wills His Son have everything. And this He guaranteed when He
Tx:26.57  the miracle by which creation became your function, sharing it with  God. It is not understood apart from Him and therefore has no meaning
Tx:26.58 Here does the Son of  God ask not too much but far too little. He would sacrifice his own
Tx:26.60 Cause and effect are one, not separate.  God wills you learn what always has been true—that He created you
Tx:26.60  For never will success be possible in trying to deceive the Son of  God.
Tx:26.62  their purpose, they derive whatever meaning that they seem to have.  God gave to all illusions that were made another purpose that would
Tx:26.62  whatever form they took. In every miracle all healing lies, for  God gave answer to them all as one. And what is one to Him must be
Tx:26.62  what is the same is different, you but deceive yourself. What  God calls one will be forever one, not separate. His Kingdom is
Tx:26.63  calls for his release and yours. Heaven is shining on the Son of  God. Deny him not, that you may be released. Each instant is the Son
Tx:26.63  Deny him not, that you may be released. Each instant is the Son of  God reborn, until he chooses not to die again. In every wish to hurt,
Tx:26.64  name of love. To you to whom it has been given to save the Son of  God from crucifixion and from hell and death, all glory be forever.
Tx:26.64  death, all glory be forever. For you have power to save the Son of  God because his Father willed that it be so. And in your hands does
Tx:26.65 To use the power  God has given you as He would have it used is natural. It is not
Tx:26.65  choose a little senseless wish instead of what He wills. The gift of  God to you is limitless. There is no circumstance it cannot answer
Tx:26.66 Abide in peace, where  God would have you be, and be the means whereby your brother finds
Tx:26.66  one of us can save us all. There is no difference among the Sons of  God. The unity that specialness denies will save them all, for what
Tx:26.67  to everyone, as theirs to you. Call on your brother's name and  God will answer, for on Him you call. Could He refuse to answer when
Tx:26.67  And by this little gift of truth but let to be itself—the Son of  God allowed to be himself and all creation freed to call upon the
Tx:26.67  to be himself and all creation freed to call upon the Name of  God as one.
Tx:26.73  You have been told that everything brings good that comes from  God. And yet it seems as if this is not so. Good in disaster's form
Tx:26.77 Think but how holy you must be from whom the Voice for  God calls lovingly unto your brother, that you may awake in him the
Tx:26.77  with his freedom joined! However much you wish he be condemned,  God is in him. And never will you know He is in you as well, while
Tx:26.78  your brother and yourself obscures the face of Christ and memory of  God. And would you trade Them for an ancient hate? The ground whereon
Tx:26.84 Now is the temple of the Living  God rebuilt as host again to Him by Whom it was created. Where He
Tx:26.84  replace an ancient enmity that came to kill. In gentle gratitude do  God the Father and the Son return to what is Theirs and will forever
Tx:26.86  your own and equally belongs to every living thing along with you.  God limits not. And what is limited can not be Heaven. So it must
Tx:26.87  it is you who ask this of yourself in deep injustice to the Son of  God. You have no enemy except yourself, and you are enemy indeed to
Tx:26.88  to get? Is it not retribution for your own attack upon the Son of  God you seek? Is it not safer to believe that you are innocent of
Tx:27.32  enhance the invitation's real appeal. For what you leave as vacant,  God will fill, and where He is, there must the truth abide.
Tx:27.34  it represents remains unknown but is not canceled out. And thus is  God left free to take the final step Himself. [For this you need no
Tx:27.36  answer anything at all, for conflict has no limited effects. Yet if  God gave an answer, there must be a way in which your problems are
Tx:27.37  be that in your state of mind solution is impossible. Therefore,  God must have given you a way of reaching to another state of mind in
Tx:27.53  cannot be understood by merely counting up its separate parts.  God thanks you for your healing, for He knows it is a gift of love
Tx:27.56  And otherwise he lies, if you should call him by the holy Name of  God Himself.
Tx:27.57  what you believe it holds within. Nor could it tell a part of  God Himself what it should feel and what its function is. Yet must He
Tx:27.60  as powerless. The purpose of a miracle is to accomplish this. And  God Himself has guaranteed the strength of miracles for what they
Tx:27.73  his suffering was healed and where his brother was his friend.]  God willed he waken gently and with joy. And gave him means to waken
Tx:27.82  where all is one, there crept a tiny mad idea at which the Son of  God remembered not to laugh. In his forgetting did the thought become
Tx:27.83 A timelessness in which is time made real; a part of  God which can attack itself; a separate brother as an enemy; a mind
Tx:27.85  you come in tears, but hear Him say, “My brother, Holy Son of  God, behold your idle dream in which this could occur,” and you will
Tx:28.2  like perception, is a skill made up by you to take the place of what  God gave in your creation. And like all the things you made, it can
Tx:28.4 The Holy Spirit can indeed make use of memory, for  God Himself is there. Yet this is not a memory of past events, but
Tx:28.10  His Will. What your remembering would witness to is but the fear of  God. He has not done the thing you fear. No more have you. And so
Tx:28.11  minds and bringing them an instant's stillness when the memory of  God returns to them. Their own remembering is quiet now, and what has
Tx:28.12  is His memory allowed to offer all its treasures to the Son of  God, for whom they have been kept. How gladly does He offer them unto
Tx:28.12  enter where They would abide. For in that instant does the Son of  God do nothing that would make himself afraid.
Tx:28.13 How instantly the memory of  God arises in the mind that has no fear to keep the memory away. Its
Tx:28.13  and undone. The stillness speaks in gentle sounds of love the Son of  God remembers from before his own remembering came in between the
Tx:28.14 Now is the Son of  God at last aware of present Cause and Its benign effects. Now does
Tx:28.15  to see the causeless not? And where is sacrifice, when memory of  God has come to take the place of loss? What better way to close the
Tx:28.15  little gap between illusions and reality than to allow the memory of  God to flow across it, making it a bridge an instant will suffice to
Tx:28.15  it, making it a bridge an instant will suffice to reach beyond? For  God has closed it with Himself. His memory has not gone by and left a
Tx:28.16  he is God's Son that he must also be a father who creates as  God created him. The circle of creation has no end. Its starting and
Tx:28.18 Always in sickness does the Son of  God attempt to make himself his cause and not allow himself to be his
Tx:28.30  kept carefully protected, cherished, and upheld by firm belief, lest  God should come to bridge the little gap that leads to Him. Fight not
Tx:28.33  God builds the bridge, but only in the space left clean and vacant by
Tx:28.34  are you who live within the world except a picture of the Son of  God in broken pieces, each concealed within a separate and uncertain
Tx:28.44  Holy Spirit's function is to take the broken picture of the Son of  God and put the pieces into place again. This holy picture, healed
Tx:28.45  For the whole is in each one. And every aspect of the Son of  God is just the same as every other part.
Tx:28.46  sickness when he has received the simple happiness of health? What  God has given cannot be a loss, and what is not of Him has no
Tx:28.47  is sickness separating off the self from good and keeping evil in.  God is the alternate to dreams of fear. Who shares in them can
Tx:28.47  Except you share it, nothing can exist. And you exist because  God shared His Will with you, that His creation might create.
Tx:28.51 What is there  God created to be sick? And what that He created not can be? Let not
Tx:28.59  that you make with him because it is the one which he has made to  God, as God has made to him. God keeps His promises; His Son keeps
Tx:28.59  you make with him because it is the one which he has made to God, as  God has made to him. God keeps His promises; His Son keeps his. In
Tx:28.59  it is the one which he has made to God, as God has made to him.  God keeps His promises; His Son keeps his. In his creation did his
Tx:28.59  that he replied “I will,” though in that promise he was born. Yet  God reminds him of it every time he does not share a promise to be
Tx:28.59  healed and unified. His secret vows are powerless before the Will of  God, Whose promises he shares. And what he substitutes is not his
Tx:28.59  he substitutes is not his will, who has made promise of himself to  God.
Tx:28.60  God asks for nothing, and His Son, like Him, need ask for nothing.
Tx:28.60  there that he could want for something he has not. A space where  God is not, a gap between the Father and the Son is not the will of
Tx:28.61  have with all your brothers is a part of you because it is a part of  God Himself. Are you not sick if you deny yourself your wholeness and
Tx:28.62  your home but merely as an aid to help you reach the home where  God abides.
Tx:29.1 There is no time, no place, no state where  God is absent. There is nothing to be feared. There is no way in
Tx:29.2 Here is the fear of  God most plainly seen. For love is treacherous to those who fear,
Tx:29.2  who hates but is afraid of love and therefore must he be afraid of  God. Certain it is he knows not what love means. He fears to love and
Tx:29.3 The fear of  God! The greatest obstacle that peace must flow across has not yet
Tx:29.9  Nothing more than that, and nothing less. Without the fear of  God, what could induce you to abandon Him? What toys or trinkets in
Tx:29.9  calling, were you not afraid to find a loss of self in finding  God? Yet can your Self be lost by being found?
Tx:29.10  without a sacrifice or any loss, to find yourself in Heaven and in  God? Until you realize you give up nothing, until you understand
Tx:29.12  of hatred and attack. No more is pain your friend and guilt your  god, and you should welcome the effects of love.
Tx:29.15 Such is the promise of the living  God—His Son have life and every living thing be part of him, and
Tx:29.17  it be more than this lies the idea of sickness. For it asks that  God be less than all He really is. What, then, becomes of you, for it
Tx:29.17  lessened by the loss of you. And what is gone from Him becomes your  god, protecting you from being part of Him.
Tx:29.18 The body that is asked to be a  god will be attacked because its nothingness has not been recognized.
Tx:29.19  does he dwell in what was built as temple unto death. He lives in  God, and it is this that makes him savior unto you, and only this.
Tx:29.20  has, for giving is the proof of having. Only those who think that  God is lessened by their strength could fail to understand this must
Tx:29.21  than just a tiny spark, a space of light created in the dark, where  God still shines.
Tx:29.22  your dreams. And as you see him shining in the space of light where  God abides within the darkness, you will see that God Himself is
Tx:29.22  of light where God abides within the darkness, you will see that  God Himself is where his body is. Before this light the body
Tx:29.24 How holy are you, that the Son of  God can be your savior in the midst of dreams of desolation and
Tx:29.31  place so still no sound except a hymn to Heaven rises up to gladden  God the Father and the Son. Where both abide are They remembered
Tx:29.32  the might of its Creator; nothing can intrude upon the sacred Son of  God within. Here is the role the Holy Spirit gives to you who wait
Tx:29.32  is the role the Holy Spirit gives to you who wait upon the Son of  God and would behold him waken and be glad. He is a part of you, and
Tx:29.33 This sacred Son of  God is like yourself—the mirror of his Father's love for you, the
Tx:29.35  be. For you would understand how great the cost of holding anything  God did not give in minds that can direct the hand to bless and lead
Tx:29.35  want to be a friend to him, created by his Father as His home? If  God esteems him worthy of Himself, would you attack him with the
Tx:29.39 Swear not to die, you holy Son of  God! You make a bargain that you cannot keep. The Son of Life cannot
Tx:29.40  your mind and see another purpose there. Change is the greatest gift  God gave to all that you would make eternal, to ensure that only
Tx:29.41  to die. You cannot change, because your function has been fixed by  God. All other goals are set in time and change that time might be
Tx:29.41  And where it once held seeming sway is now restored the function  God established for His Son in full awareness. Time can set no end to
Tx:29.43  can be no peace excepting there. Each idol that you worship when  God calls will never answer in His place. There is no other answer
Tx:29.48  and happy. It is vain to worship idols in the hope of peace.  God dwells within, and your completion lies in Him. No idol takes His
Tx:29.50  sad and sick by seeing idols there. Your holy minds are altars unto  God, and where He is, no idols can abide. The fear of God is but the
Tx:29.50  altars unto God, and where He is, no idols can abide. The fear of  God is but the fear of loss of idols. It is not the fear of loss of
Tx:29.51  of death is nothing lost. An idol cannot take the place of  God. Let Him remind you of His love for you, and do not seek to drown
Tx:29.55  Its form is nowhere, for its source abides within your mind, where  God abideth not. Where is this place where what is everywhere has
Tx:29.57  the slaves of time. Here does the changeless change, the peace of  God, forever given to all living things, give way to chaos, and the
Tx:29.57  given to all living things, give way to chaos, and the Son of  God, as perfect, sinless and as loving as his Father, come to hate a
Tx:29.58  from what is endless, has no place to be. An idol is beyond where  God has set all things forever and has left no room for anything to
Tx:29.58  to be except His Will. Nothing and nowhere must an idol be while  God is everything and everywhere.
Tx:29.60  God has not many sons, but only One. Who can have more, and who be
Tx:29.60  Who can have more, and who be given less? In Heaven would the Son of  God but laugh if idols could intrude upon his peace. It is for him
Tx:29.60  for idols which would make of Heaven less, to give you more than  God bestowed upon your brother and on you as one with Him? God gave
Tx:29.60  more than God bestowed upon your brother and on you as one with Him?  God gave you all there is. And to be sure you could not lose it,
Tx:29.60  part of you, as of Himself. No idol can establish you as more than  God. But you will never be content with being less.
Tx:29.61  seek for power in the powerless. What happened to the holy Son of  God that this could be his wish—to let himself fall lower than the
Tx:29.61  it is not a dream. A dream of judgment came into the mind that  God created perfect as Himself. And in that dream was Heaven changed
Tx:29.61  as Himself. And in that dream was Heaven changed to hell, and  God made enemy unto His Son.
Tx:29.63  escape the penalty he laid upon himself within the dream he made.  God knows of justice, not of penalty. But in the dream of judgment,
Tx:29.68  never left the altar which abides forever deep within the Son of  God. And when he hears this song again, he knows he never heard it
Tx:30.29  yourself whatever you decide. For they are made with idols or with  God. And you ask help of Christ or anti-Christ, and which you choose
Tx:30.31  some form of union, be it with a dream of judgment or the Voice for  God. Decisions cause results because they are not made in
Tx:30.33  your knowledge, saved for you that you may do your will through Him.  God asks you do your will. He joins with you. He did not set His
Tx:30.33  your glad consent, as you would have it be. And not one Thought that  God has ever had but waited for your blessing to be born. God is no
Tx:30.33  that God has ever had but waited for your blessing to be born.  God is no enemy to you. He asks no more than that He hear you call
Tx:30.34  freedom's name. Unless you do your will, you are not free. And would  God leave His Son without what he has chosen for himself? God but
Tx:30.34  And would God leave His Son without what he has chosen for himself?  God but ensured that you would never lose your will when He gave you
Tx:30.34  it now that you may be reminded of His love and learn your will.  God would not have His Son made prisoner to what he does not want. He
Tx:30.35  the world, and thus the rule of fear established there. Now hear  God speak to you through Him Who is His Voice and yours as well,
Tx:30.35  is not your will that it be bound. What lies in you has joined with  God Himself in all creation's birth. Remember He Who has created you
Tx:30.36  merely waits your blessing to be free? If you be prisoner, then  God Himself could not be free. For what is done to him whom God so
Tx:30.36  then God Himself could not be free. For what is done to him whom  God so loves is done to God Himself. Think not He wills to bind you,
Tx:30.36  not be free. For what is done to him whom God so loves is done to  God Himself. Think not He wills to bind you, Who has made you
Tx:30.37  Nor can you be free apart from Him Whose holy will you share.  God turns to you to ask the world be saved, for by your own salvation
Tx:30.37  and because you have decided with him, he is healed. And now is  God forgiven, for you chose to look upon your brother as a friend.
Tx:30.39 It is not form you seek. What form can be a substitute for  God the Father's love? What form can take the place of all the love
Tx:30.39  What form can take the place of all the love in the divinity of  God the Son? What idol can make two of what is one? And can the
Tx:30.41  be complete is but God's Will, and this is given you by being His.  God knows not form. He cannot answer you in terms which have no
Tx:30.41  person and no separate thing the power to complete the Son of  God. What idol can be called upon to give the Son of God what he
Tx:30.41  the Son of God. What idol can be called upon to give the Son of  God what he already has?
Tx:30.42  to any form and limited to what is not in him, he would not be as  God created him. What idol can he need to be himself? For can he give
Tx:30.42  would content you not, but in the whole completely lovely Thought  God holds of you.
Tx:30.43 Nothing that  God knows not exists. And what He knows exists forever, changelessly.
Tx:30.43  as long as does the mind that thought of them. And in the Mind of  God there is no ending nor a time in which His Thoughts were absent
Tx:30.44  it. It was always there, but you were unaware of it. The Thought  God holds of you is perfectly unchanged by your forgetting. It will
Tx:30.45 The Thoughts of  God are far beyond all change and shine forever. They await not
Tx:30.45  await not birth. They wait for welcome and remembering. The Thought  God holds of you is like a star, unchangeable in an eternal sky. So
Tx:30.47 Beyond all idols is the Thought  God holds of you. Completely unaffected by the turmoil and the terror
Tx:30.47  myriad of forms that fear can take; quite undisturbed, the Thought  God holds of you remains exactly as it always was. Surrounded by a
Tx:30.47  unaware of all the world that worships idols and that knows not  God. In perfect sureness of its changelessness and of its rest in its
Tx:30.47  its changelessness and of its rest in its eternal home, the Thought  God holds of you has never left the mind of its Creator Whom it
Tx:30.48 Where could the Thought  God holds of you exist but where you are? Is your reality a thing
Tx:30.48  Nor can you be aware of more than one. An idol or the Thought  God holds of you is your reality. Forget not, then, that idols must
Tx:30.48  then, that idols must keep hidden what you are, not from the Mind of  God, but from your own. The star shines still; the sky has never
Tx:30.48  shines still; the sky has never changed. But you, the holy Son of  God Himself, are unaware of your reality.
Tx:30.52 Reality observes the laws of  God, and not the rules you set. It is His laws which guarantee your
Tx:30.54  not want whatever you believe an idol gives. For thus the Son of  God declares that he is free of idols. And thus is he free.
Tx:30.55  no more to substitute the strength of idle wishes for the Will of  God.
Tx:30.56  its unreality is plain. Dreams are for nothing. And the Son of  God can have no need of them. They offer him no single thing that he
Tx:30.60 The final step is God's because it is but  God Who could create a perfect Son and share His Fatherhood with him.
Tx:30.60  Heaven's Son prepared to be himself, and to remember that the Son of  God knows everything his Father understands and understands it
Tx:30.62  of yourself and what you are, forgiveness washes joyfully away. Yet  God need not create His Son again that what is his be given back to
Tx:30.62  your brother and yourself was never there. And what the Son of  God knew in creation, he must know again.
Tx:30.63  till His Son has reached beyond forgiveness to the love of  God. Yet is the love of Christ accepted first. And then will come the
Tx:30.69 The Will of  God forever lies in those whose hands are joined. Until they joined,
Tx:30.69  they were free to learn their will is one. And thus the Will of  God must reach to their awareness. Nor can they forget for long that
Tx:30.73  the world employs to keep the sense of sin alive. And recognizing  God is just, it seems impossible His pardon could be real. Thus is
Tx:30.73  it seems impossible His pardon could be real. Thus is the fear of  God the sure result of seeing pardon as unmerited. No one who sees
Tx:30.73  unmerited. No one who sees himself as guilty can avoid the fear of  God. But he is saved from this dilemma if he can forgive. The mind
Tx:30.73  forgiveness is your right as much as his. Nor will you think that  God intends for you a fearful judgment which your brother does not
Tx:30.74  and to make a world which could replace it and destroy the Will of  God. Only if this were possible could there be some appearances which
Tx:30.80  that there are no forms of evil which can overcome the Will of  God—the glad acknowledgment that guilt has not succeeded by your
Tx:30.81  But what you see as having power to make an idol of the Son of  God you will not pardon. For he has become to you a graven image
Tx:30.82 Would  God have left the meaning of the world to your interpretation? If He
Tx:30.91  have established limits. What you ask is given you, but not of  God Who knows no limits. You have limited yourself.
Tx:31.4  The world began with one strange lesson, powerful enough to render  God forgotten and His Son an alien to himself, in exile from the home
Tx:31.4  and His Son an alien to himself, in exile from the home where  God Himself established him. You who have taught yourselves the Son
Tx:31.4  Himself established him. You who have taught yourselves the Son of  God is guilty, say not that you cannot learn the simple things
Tx:31.5  you made and gave yourselves. It was not made to do the Will of  God but to uphold a wish that It could be opposed, and that a will
Tx:31.5  forgiveness have a power mightier than yours because they call from  God and from your Self to you.
Tx:31.6  rise above the senseless noise of sounds which have no meaning?  God willed not His Son forget Him. And the power of His Will is in
Tx:31.6  Which lesson will you learn? What outcome is inevitable, sure as  God, and far beyond all doubt and question? Can it be your little
Tx:31.7  overlearned your chosen task, the lesson which reflects the love of  God is stronger still. And you will learn God's Son is innocent and
Tx:31.9  and understood that it is but your own. The Christ in you remembers  God with all the certainty with which He knows His love. But only if
Tx:31.9  knows His love. But only if His Son is innocent can He be Love. For  God were fear indeed if he whom He created innocent could be a slave
Tx:31.10 The fear of  God results as surely from the lesson that His Son is guilty as God's
Tx:31.10  appear when you have answered Him, and you will know in Him that  God is Love.
Tx:31.21  Forget the dismal lessons that you learned about this Son of  God who calls to you. Christ calls to all with equal tenderness,

Tx:31.64  It is not done at all. What could there be within the universe which  God created that must still be done?
Tx:31.65  what you look upon nor what you choose to feel or think or wish. For  God Himself has said, “Your will be done.” And it is done to you
Tx:31.66 You who believe that you can choose to see the Son of  God as you would have him be, forget not that no concept of yourself
Tx:31.67  could hurt the truly innocent? Your will be done, you holy Child of  God. It does not matter if you think you are in earth or Heaven. What

Tx:31.77  savior would be one who is but partly saved. The holy ones whom  God has given each of you to save are everyone you meet or look upon,
Tx:31.77  those you will yet meet, the unremembered and the not yet born. For  God has given you His Son to save from every concept that he ever
Tx:31.78  you wish to stay in hell, how could you be the savior of the Son of  God? How would you know his holiness while you see him apart from
Tx:31.82  eyes and offers them forgiveness with his own. Can you to whom  God says, “Release My Son!” be tempted not to listen when you learn

W1:46.1  God does not forgive because He has never condemned. And there must
W1:46.2 Although  God does not forgive, His love is nevertheless the basis of
W1:46.2  what fear has produced, returning the mind to the awareness of  God. For this reason, forgiveness can truly be called salvation. It
W1:46.9 God is the Love with which I love myself.  God is the Love in which I am blessed.

W1:47.3  God is your safety in every circumstance. His Voice speaks for Him in
W1:47.3  His strength and His protection. There are no exceptions because  God has no exceptions. And the Voice Which speaks for Him thinks as

W1:48.3  in a place which you recognize as yet, you have remembered  God and let His strength take the place of yours. The instant you are
W1:49.1  of your mind in which truth abides is in constant communication with  God, whether you are aware of it or not. It is the other part of your

W1:49.3  if possible. We will try actually to hear the Voice reminding you of  God and of your Self. We will approach this happiest and holiest of

W1:50.1  powers. All these things are your replacements for the Love of  God. All these things are cherished to ensure a body identification.
W1:50.2  faith in the worthless. It will not sustain you. Only the Love of  God will protect you in all circumstances. It will lift you out of
W1:50.2  and where nothing can intrude upon the eternal calm of the Son of  God.
W1:50.3  in illusions. They will fail you. Put all your faith in the Love of  God within you, eternal, changeless and forever unfailing. This is
W1:50.3  is the answer to whatever confronts you today. Through the Love of  God in you, you can resolve all seeming difficulties without effort
W1:50.4  and foolish thoughts enter to disturb the holy mind of the Son of  God. Such is the Kingdom of Heaven. Such is the resting place where
W1:51.5  I am aware do not mean anything because I am trying to think without  God. What I call “my” thoughts are not my real thoughts. My real
W1:51.5  not my real thoughts. My real thoughts are the thoughts I think with  God. I am not aware of them because I have made my thoughts to take
W1:51.5  are meaningless, but all creation lies in the thoughts I think with  God.
W1:52.4  on my mind. Let me understand that I am trying to use time against  God. Let me learn to give the past away, realizing that in so doing I
W1:53.5 [14]  God did not create a meaningless world. How can a meaningless world
W1:53.5  create a meaningless world. How can a meaningless world exist if  God did not create it? He is the Source of all meaning, and
W1:54.5  Everything I think or say or do touches all the universe. A Son of  God cannot think or speak or act in vain. He cannot be alone in
W1:54.5  power to change every mind along with mine, for mine is the power of  God.
W1:54.6  the real world, and let it teach me that my will and the Will of  God are one.
W1:55.2  are but signs of disease, disaster, and death. This cannot be what  God created for His beloved Son. The very fact that I see such things
W1:55.2  very fact that I see such things is proof that I do not understand  God. Therefore I also do not understand His Son. What I see tells me
W1:55.3  by everything. It is anything but a reflection of the Love of  God and the love of His Son. It is my own attack thoughts which give
W1:55.3  will save me from this perception of the world and give me the peace  God intended me to have.
W1:55.5  closer to the world of illusions. I am willing to follow the Guide  God has given me to find out what my own best interests are,
W1:56.2  to give my inheritance away in exchange for the world I see. But  God has kept my inheritance safe for me. My own real thoughts will
W1:56.4  me that I may look past it to the world that reflects the Love of  God.
W1:56.5 [29]  God is in everything I see. Behind every image I have made, the
W1:56.5  all my insane wishes is my will united with the Will of my Father.  God is still everywhere and in everything forever. And we who are
W1:56.6 [30]  God is in everything I see because God is in my mind. In my own
W1:56.6 [30] God is in everything I see because  God is in my mind. In my own mind, behind all my insane thoughts of
W1:56.6  because I have forgotten it. It has been kept for me in the Mind of  God, Who has not left His thoughts. And I, who am among them, am one
W1:57.3  deluded myself into believing it is possible to imprison the Son of  God. I was bitterly mistaken in this belief, which I no longer want.
W1:57.3  bitterly mistaken in this belief, which I no longer want. The Son of  God must be forever free. He is as God created him, and not what I
W1:57.3  I no longer want. The Son of God must be forever free. He is as  God created him, and not what I would make of him. He is where God
W1:57.3  is as God created him, and not what I would make of him. He is where  God would have him be, and not where I thought to hold him prisoner.
W1:57.4  look upon the world as it is, and see it as a place where the Son of  God finds his freedom.
W1:57.5  as a place of freedom, I will realize that it reflects the laws of  God instead of the rules which I made up for it to obey. I will

W1:58.5  everyone must share in my understanding, which is the gift of  God to me and to the world.
W1:58.6 [40] I am blessed as a Son of  God. Herein lies my claim to all good and only good. I am blessed as
W1:58.6  lies my claim to all good and only good. I am blessed as a Son of  God. All good things are mine because God intended them for me. I
W1:58.6  good. I am blessed as a Son of God. All good things are mine because  God intended them for me. I cannot suffer any loss or deprivation or
W1:59.2 [41]  God goes with me wherever I go. How can I be alone when God always
W1:59.2 [41] God goes with me wherever I go. How can I be alone when  God always goes with me? How can I be doubtful and unsure of myself
W1:59.2  Him? Let me not cherish illusions about myself. I am perfect because  God goes with me wherever I go.
W1:59.3 [42]  God is my strength. Vision is His gift. Let me not look to my own
W1:59.3  my pitiful illusion of seeing for the vision that is given by  God. Christ's vision is His gift, and He has given it to me. Let me
W1:59.4 [43]  God is my Source. I cannot see apart from Him. I can see what God
W1:59.4 [43] God is my Source. I cannot see apart from Him. I can see what  God wants me to see. I cannot see anything else. Beyond His Will lie
W1:59.5 [44]  God is the Light in which I see. I cannot see in darkness. God is
W1:59.5 [44] God is the Light in which I see. I cannot see in darkness.  God is the only Light. Therefore if I am to see, it must be through
W1:59.5  is, and I have been wrong. Now it is given me to understand that  God is the Light in which I see. Let me welcome vision and the happy
W1:59.6 [45]  God is the Mind with which I think. I have no thoughts I do not
W1:59.6  the Mind with which I think. I have no thoughts I do not share with  God. I have no thoughts apart from Him because I have no mind apart

W1:60.3 [47]  God is the Strength in which I trust. It is not my own strength
W1:60.3  own strength through which I forgive. It is through the strength of  God in me, which I am remembering as I forgive. As I begin to see, I

W1:61.1  you have endowed your idols. It refers to you as you were created by  God. It simply states the truth.
W1:61.2  that you cannot be the light of the world if that is the function  God assigned to you. It is only arrogance that would assert this
W1:61.10 You are the light of the world.  God has built His plan for the salvation of His Son on you.
W1:62.3  and guilt and pain. It will restore the invulnerability and power  God gave His Son to your awareness.
W1:62.4  throughout the day. It will help to make the day as happy for you as  God wants you to be. And it will help those around you as well as
W1:63.2  are indeed the light of the world with such a function. The Son of  God looks to you for his redemption. It is yours to give him, for it
W1:63.2  in its place or you will forget your function and leave the Son of  God in hell. This is no idle request that is being asked of you. You
W1:63.4  brings peace to every mind through my forgiveness. I am the means  God has appointed for the salvation of the world.
W1:64.1  a justification for forgetting it. It is the temptation to abandon  God and His Son, taking on a physical appearance. It is this which
W1:64.3  here is to be the light of the world, a function given you by  God. It is only the arrogance of the ego that leads you to question
W1:64.3  you to regard yourself as unworthy of the task assigned to you by  God Himself.
W1:64.4  awaits your forgiveness, because through it does the Son of  God escape from all illusions and thus from all temptation. The Son
W1:64.4  escape from all illusions and thus from all temptation. The Son of  God is you. Only by fulfilling the function given you by God will you
W1:64.4  The Son of God is you. Only by fulfilling the function given you by  God will you be happy. That is because your function is to be happy
W1:65.1  only way in which you can say and mean, “My only function is the one  God gave me.” This is the only way in which you can find peace of
W1:65.4  this is to arrange your day so that you have set apart the time for  God, as well as for all the trivial purposes and goals you will
W1:65.13 My only function is the one  God gave me. I want no other and I have no other.
W1:66.4  that not only is there a very real connection between the function  God gave you and your happiness, but that they are actually
W1:66.4  gave you and your happiness, but that they are actually identical.  God gives you only happiness. Therefore the function He gave you must
W1:66.8 The first premise is that  God gives you only happiness. This could be false, of course, but in
W1:66.8  false, of course, but in order to be false it is necessary to define  God as something He is not. Love cannot give evil, and what is not
W1:66.8  He is not. Love cannot give evil, and what is not happiness is evil.  God cannot give what He does not have, and He cannot have what He is
W1:66.8  what He does not have, and He cannot have what He is not. Unless  God gives you only happiness, He must be evil. And it is this
W1:66.9 The second premise is that  God has given you your function. We have seen that there are only two
W1:66.10 Thus it must be that your function is established by  God through His Voice or is made by the ego which you have made to
W1:66.10  by the ego which you have made to replace Him. Which is true? Unless  God gave your function to you, it must be the gift of the ego. Does
W1:66.12  rests. We can share in this conclusion, but in no other. For  God Himself shares it with us.
W1:66.15 My happiness and function are one because  God has given me both.
W1:67.1  you are. This is why you are the light of the world. This is why  God appointed you as the world's savior. This is why the Son of God
W1:67.1  why God appointed you as the world's savior. This is why the Son of  God looks to you for his salvation. He is saved by what you are.
W1:67.4 Any attribute which is in accord with  God as He defines Himself is appropriate for use. We are trying today
W1:67.4  appropriate for use. We are trying today to undo your definition of  God and replace it with His own. We are also trying to emphasize that
W1:67.8  your tiny solitary voice that tells you this. This is the Voice for  God reminding you of your Father and of your Self. This is the Voice
W1:67.8  ego tells you about yourself with the simple truth about the Son of  God. You were created by Love like Itself.
W1:68.3  to him in his dream of hate. Who can dream of hatred and not fear  God?
W1:68.4 It is as sure that those who hold grievances will redefine  God in their own image as it is certain that God created them like
W1:68.4  will redefine God in their own image as it is certain that  God created them like Himself and defined them as part of Him. It is
W1:69.7  determination call on the power of the universe to help you, and  God Himself will raise you from darkness into light. You are in
W1:69.8  Try to keep the thought clearly in mind that what you undertake with  God must succeed. Then let the power of God work in you and through
W1:69.8  that what you undertake with God must succeed. Then let the power of  God work in you and through you, that His Will and yours may be done.
W1:70.4  God would not have put the remedy for sickness where it cannot help.
W1:70.6  God wants us to be healed, and we do not really want to be sick,
W1:70.6  Therefore, in accepting the idea for today, we are in agreement with  God. He does not want us to be sick. Neither do we. He wants us to be
W1:71.6  you seek for salvation where it is. But if you are to succeed, as  God promises you will, you must be willing to seek there only.
W1:71.8  a conflict with no resolution possible. All things are possible to  God. Salvation must be yours because of His plan, which cannot fail.
W1:71.10  us devote the remainder of the extended practice periods to asking  God to reveal His plan to us. Ask Him very specifically:
W1:72.1  on His plan and a deliberate attempt to destroy it. In the attack,  God is assigned the attributes which are actually associated with the
W1:72.1  with the ego, while the ego appears to take on the attributes of  God.
W1:72.2 The ego's fundamental wish is to replace  God. In fact, the ego is the physical embodiment of this wish. For it
W1:72.4  to it by confusing it with him and judging them as one. Herein is  God attacked, for if His Son is only a body, so must He be as well. A
W1:72.5 If  God is a body, what must His plan for salvation be? What could it be
W1:72.6 The body's apparent reality makes this view of  God quite convincing. In fact, if the body were real, it would be
W1:72.6  that his salvation must be death, projecting this attack onto  God and holding Him responsible for it.
W1:72.7  seek for prey and mercy cannot enter, the ego comes to save you.  God made you a body. Very well. Let us accept this and be glad. As a
W1:72.7  be deprived of what the body offers. Take the little you can get.  God gave you nothing. The body is your only savior. It is the death
W1:72.7  gave you nothing. The body is your only savior. It is the death of  God and your salvation.
W1:72.10 The light of truth is in us, where it was placed by  God. It is the body that is outside us and is not our concern. To be
W1:73.1 Today we are considering the will you share with  God. This is not the same as the ego's idle wishes, out of which
W1:73.1  out of which darkness and nothingness arise. The will you share with  God has all the power of creation in it. The ego's idle wishes are
W1:73.3  exchange. Can such a world have been created by the will the Son of  God shares with his Father? Did God create disaster for His Son?
W1:73.3  been created by the will the Son of God shares with his Father? Did  God create disaster for His Son? Creation is the will of Both
W1:73.3  disaster for His Son? Creation is the will of Both together. Would  God create a world that kills Himself?
W1:73.4  your will. The light is in it because it does not oppose the Will of  God. It is not Heaven, but the light of Heaven shines on it. Darkness
W1:73.11  will succeed today, the time appointed for the release of the Son of  God from hell and from all idle wishes. His will is now restored to
W1:73.14 Then let your will assert itself, joined with the power of  God and united with your Self. Put the rest of the practice period
W1:74.1  you are torn by conflicting goals. As an expression of the Will of  God, you have no goal but His.
W1:74.6  Nothing can disturb me. My will is God's My will and God's are one.  God wills peace for His Son.
W1:75.11  time for special celebration. Give thanks for mercy and the Love of  God. Rejoice in the power of forgiveness to heal your sight
W1:75.15 We dedicate this day to the serenity in which  God would have you be. Keep it in your awareness of yourself and see
W1:76.6 There are no laws except the laws of  God. This needs repeating over and over until you realize that it
W1:76.7 The laws of  God can never be replaced. We will devote today to rejoicing that
W1:76.7  truth which keeps us free forever. Magic imprisons, but the laws of  God set free. The light has come because there are no laws but His.
W1:76.10  will be listening to One Who says there is no loss under the laws of  God. Payment is neither given nor received. Exchange cannot be made,
W1:76.14  from all danger and all tyranny. It is our acknowledgment that  God is our Father and that His Son is saved.
W1:77.1  because of what you are. You will receive miracles because of what  God is. And you will offer miracles because you are one with God.
W1:77.1  of what God is. And you will offer miracles because you are one with  God. Again, how simple is salvation! It is merely a statement of your
W1:77.2  It is inherent in the truth of what you are. It is implicit in what  God your Father is. It was ensured in your creation and guaranteed by
W1:77.2  is. It was ensured in your creation and guaranteed by the laws of  God.
W1:77.3  from the world you made. You have been assured that the Kingdom of  God is within you and can never be lost. We ask no more than what
W1:77.4  not obey the laws of this world. They merely follow from the laws of  God.
W1:77.5  fail to be assured in this. You are but asking that the Will of  God be done. In doing this, you do not really ask for anything. You
W1:77.11  not trade miracles for grievances. I want only what belongs to me.  God has established miracles as my right.
W1:78.2  lay it down and gently lift our eyes in silence to behold the Son of  God.
W1:78.3  grievance is a block to sight, and as it lifts, you see the Son of  God where he has always been. He stands in light, but you were in the
W1:78.6  to him. Let him be savior unto you today. Such is his role in  God your Father's plan.
W1:78.8 Then let us ask of Him Who knows this Son of  God in his reality and truth that we may look on him a different way
W1:78.8  of true forgiveness given unto us. We ask Him in the holy Name of  God and of His Son, as holy as Himself:
W1:78.11  You have allowed the Holy Spirit to express through him the role  God gave Him that you might be saved. God thanks you for these quiet
W1:78.11  express through him the role God gave Him that you might be saved.  God thanks you for these quiet times today in which you laid your
W1:78.11  The world and Heaven join in thanking you, for not one thought of  God but must rejoice as you are saved and all the world with you.
W1:82.5  And unless I fulfill my function, I will not experience the joy that  God intends for me.
W1:83.2 [65] My only function is the one  God gave me. I have no function but the one God gave me. This
W1:83.2  function is the one God gave me. I have no function but the one  God gave me. This recognition releases me from all conflict because
W1:83.2  must disappear as I acknowledge that my only function is the one  God gave me.
W1:83.4  my function. This does not give me a function other than the one  God gave me. Let me not use this to justify a function God did not
W1:83.4  the one God gave me. Let me not use this to justify a function  God did not give me.
W1:83.5  My happiness and my function are one. All things that come from  God are one. They come from Oneness and must be received as one.
W1:87.7 Let me perceive this in accordance with the Will of  God. It is God's Will you are His Son, [name], and mine as well.
W1:88.7  me I believe in laws which do not exist. I see only the laws of  God at work in this. Let me allow God's laws to work in this and
W1:89.2  hide the miracles beyond. Now I would accept only what the laws of  God entitle me to have that I may use it on behalf of the function He
W1:89.5  and no substitutes. I want all of Heaven and only Heaven, as  God wills me to have.
W1:90.5  in their occurrence. That is because I do not yet realize that  God has placed the answer together with the problem, so that they
W1:91.13  your efforts, however meager, are fully supported by the strength of  God and all His thoughts. It is from Them your strength will come. It
W1:92.5  and adored that strength may be dispelled and darkness rule where  God appointed that there should be light. Strength comes from truth
W1:92.9  the meeting place we try today to find and rest in, for the peace of  God is where your Self, His Son, is waiting now to meet itself again
W1:93.4  abide in you? Your image of yourself cannot withstand the Will of  God. You think that this is death, but it is life. You think you are
W1:93.5 The self you made is not the Son of  God. Therefore, this self does not exist at all. And anything it
W1:93.5  and nothing more than that. It does not battle with the Son of  God. It does not hurt him nor attack his peace. It has not changed
W1:93.5  can this self you made possess when it would contradict the Will of  God?
W1:93.6 Your sinlessness is guaranteed by  God. Over and over this must be repeated until it is accepted. It is
W1:93.6  until it is accepted. It is true. Your sinlessness is guaranteed by  God. Nothing can touch it nor can change what God created as eternal.
W1:93.6  is guaranteed by God. Nothing can touch it nor can change what  God created as eternal. The self you made, evil and full of sin, is
W1:93.6  and full of sin, is meaningless. Your sinlessness is guaranteed by  God, and light and joy and peace abide in you.
W1:93.7 Salvation requires the acceptance of but one thought—you are as  God created you, not what you made of yourself. Whatever evil you may
W1:93.7  made of yourself. Whatever evil you may think you did, you are as  God created you. Whatever mistakes you made, the truth about you is
W1:93.7  is eternal and unalterable. Your sinlessness is guaranteed by  God. You are and will forever be exactly as you were created. Light
W1:93.7  as you were created. Light and joy and peace abide in you because  God put them there.
W1:93.9 Light and joy and peace abide in me. My sinlessness is guaranteed by  God.
W1:93.10  spend the rest of the practice period in trying to experience what  God has given you in place of what you have decreed for yourself.
W1:93.11 You are what  God created or what you made. One Self is true; the other is not
W1:93.11  from which it was created. Try not to interfere with the Self which  God created as you by hiding its majesty behind the tiny idols of
W1:93.13  and joy and peace abide in me. My sinlessness is guaranteed by  God.
W1:93.16  and joy and peace abide in you. Your sinlessness is guaranteed by  God.
W1:93.17  today to bring you closer to accepting the part in salvation which  God has assigned to you. And you can do much today to bring the
W1:94.1  thought which renders the ego silent and entirely undone. You are as  God created you. The sounds of this world are still, the sights of
W1:94.2 True light is strength, and strength is sinlessness. If you remain as  God created you, you must be strong and light must be in you. He Who
W1:94.2  must be the guarantee of strength and light as well. You are as  God created you. Darkness cannot obscure the glory of the Son of God.
W1:94.2  as God created you. Darkness cannot obscure the glory of the Son of  God. You stand in light, strong in the sinlessness in which you were
W1:94.4 I am as  God created me. I am His Son eternally.
W1:94.5 Now try to reach the Son of  God in you. This is the Self that never sinned nor made an image to
W1:94.5  to replace reality. This is the Self which never left its home in  God to walk the world uncertainly. This is the Self which knows no
W1:94.6  ascribed to yourself and wait in silent expectancy for the truth.  God has Himself promised that it will be revealed to all who ask for
W1:94.8 I am as  God created me. I am His Son eternally.
W1:94.9 Tell yourself frequently today that you are as  God created you. And be sure to respond to anyone who seems to
W1:94.10 You are as  God created you. You are His Son eternally.
W1:95.1 Today's idea accurately describes you as  God created you. You are one within yourself and one with Him. Yours
W1:95.2  of yourself—a self divided into many warring parts, separate from  God, and tenuously held together by its erratic and capricious maker,
W1:95.2  in you, for it is blind. It does not understand you are the Son of  God, for it is senseless and understands nothing.
W1:95.16  minds, that true creation may extend the Allness and the Unity of  God.
W1:95.17  is and all that there will be. You are One Self, the holy Son of  God, united with your brothers in this Self, united with your Father
W1:95.18  all your illusions and your doubts. This is your Self, the Son of  God Himself, sinless as its Creator, with His strength within you and
W1:96.8  its thoughts, and they remain within your mind and in the Mind of  God. The Holy Spirit holds salvation in your mind and offers it the
W1:96.8  offers it the way to peace. Salvation is a thought you share with  God, because His Voice accepted it for you and answered in your name
W1:97.2 We state again the truth about your Self, the holy Son of  God who rests in you whose mind has been restored to sanity. You are
W1:97.11  speak to you, reminding you that you are Spirit, one with Him and  God, your brothers and your Self. Listen for His assurance every time
W1:98.1  the one. We dedicate ourselves to truth today and to salvation as  God planned it be. We will not argue it is something else; we will
W1:98.1  gladness we accept it as it is and take the part assigned to us by  God.
W1:98.5  of your time each hour to be able to accept the happiness that  God has given you? Is it not worth five minutes hourly to recognize
W1:99.1  corrective change, something apart or different from the Will of  God. Thus do both terms imply the thought of the impossible which has
W1:99.3  real because the mind that thinks these thoughts is separate from  God.
W1:99.4  without attack and with no touch of pain? What but a thought of  God could be this plan by which the never done is overlooked and sins
W1:99.5 The Holy Spirit holds this plan of  God exactly as it was received of Him within the Mind of God and in
W1:99.5  plan of God exactly as it was received of Him within the Mind of  God and in your own. It is apart from time in that its Source is
W1:99.5  and on loss. Yet does He know one thing must still be true— God still is Love, and this is not His Will.
W1:99.10 This part belongs to  God, as does the rest. It does not think its solitary thoughts and
W1:99.15  do not want to be another self. You have no function that is not of  God. Forgive yourself the one you think you made. Forgiveness and
W1:99.20  find Its rightful place in you and show you that you are the Son of  God.
W1:100.2  you. They will see their function in your shining face and hear  God calling to them in your happy laugh.
W1:100.3  smile, the world cannot be saved. While you are sad, the light which  God Himself appointed as the means to save the world is dim and
W1:100.4  and their joy heals sorrow and despair. They are the proof that  God wills perfect happiness for all who will accept their Father's
W1:100.5  would play another part instead of what has been assigned to you by  God. Thus do you fail to show the world how great the happiness He
W1:100.6  and all the world is thus deprived of joy along with you.  God asks that you be happy so the world can see how much He loves His
W1:100.10  foolish goal can keep you from success when He Who calls to you is  God Himself? He will be there. You are essential to His plan. You are
W1:101.2  sometime, in some form which evens the account they owe to  God. They would escape Him in their fear. And yet He will pursue, and
W1:101.4  If sin is real, salvation has become your bitter enemy, the curse of  God upon you who have crucified His Son.
W1:101.7 Fear not the Will of  God. But turn to it in confidence that it will set you free from all
W1:102.2  been slave to nothing. Be you free today to join the happy Will of  God.
W1:103.2  These images, with no reality in truth, bear witness to the fear of  God, forgetting being Love, He must be joy.
W1:103.5  today with this association, which corrects the false belief that  God is fear. It also emphasizes happiness belongs to you because of
W1:103.6  fear, and joy becomes what you expect to take the place of pain.  God being Love, it will be given you. Bolster this expectation
W1:104.1  They are your right because of what you are. They come to you from  God, Who cannot fail to give you what He wills. Yet must there be a
W1:104.3  them in place of what we made we but unite our will with what  God wills and recognize the same as being one.
W1:104.6  seek instead that which is truly ours, as we ask to recognize what  God has given us.
W1:105.7  you the peace and joy that are their right under the equal laws of  God. Here you denied them to yourself. And here you must return to
W1:105.9  today. Now are you ready to accept the gift of peace and joy which  God has given you. Now are you ready to experience the joy and peace
W1:105.12  see it as but another chance to let yourself receive the gifts of  God as yours. Then bless your brother thankfully, and say:
W1:106.4  They end the dream instead and last forever, for they come from  God to His dear Son, whose other name is you.
W1:106.5  lies upon the earth and wakes all those who sleep and cannot see.  God calls to them through you. He needs your voice to speak to them,
W1:106.12 Today the holy Word of  God is kept through your receiving it to give away, so you can teach
W1:106.13 Let me be still and listen to the truth. I am the messenger of  God today. My voice is His, to give what I receive.
W1:109.2 “I rest in  God.” This thought will bring to you the rest and quiet, peace and
W1:109.2  and stillness, and the safety and the happiness you seek. “I rest in  God.” This thought has power to wake the sleeping truth in you, whose
W1:109.2  come to linger for a while. Here is the thought in which the Son of  God is born again, to recognize himself.
W1:109.3 “I rest in  God.” Completely undismayed this thought will carry you through
W1:109.3  misery and pain, past loss and death, and onward to the certainty of  God. There is no suffering it cannot heal. There is no problem which
W1:109.3  appearance but will turn to truth before the eyes of you who rest in  God.
W1:109.4 This is the day of peace. You rest in  God, and while the world is torn by winds of hate, your rest remains
W1:109.4  in your rest, and they will hear and come to you because you rest in  God. They will not hear another voice but yours because you gave your
W1:109.4  will not hear another voice but yours because you gave your voice to  God and now you rest in Him and let Him speak through you.
W1:109.6  its healing. No more fearful dreams will come now that you rest in  God. Take time today to slip away from dreams and into peace.
W1:109.7  you rest, and hourly remember that you came to bring the peace of  God into the world that it might take its rest along with you.
W1:109.9 You rest within the peace of  God today and call upon your brothers from your rest, to draw them to
W1:109.10  them all enter here and rest with you. You rest within the peace of  God today, quiet and unafraid. Each brother comes to take his rest
W1:109.11  We give to those unborn and those passed by, to every Thought of  God, and to the Mind in Which these Thoughts were born and where they
W1:109.12 I rest in  God.
W1:110.1  yourself which have reality, nor changed the universe so that what  God created was replaced by fear and evil, misery and death.
W1:110.2 If you remain as  God created you, fear has no meaning, evil is not real, and misery
W1:110.3 If you remain as  God created you, appearances cannot replace the truth, health cannot
W1:110.3  life or fear for love. All this has not occurred if you remain as  God created you. You need no thought but just this one to let
W1:110.4  saved to quietly extend into a timeless future. If you are as  God created you, then there has been no separation of your mind from
W1:110.5  This is the truth that comes to set you free. This is the truth that  God has promised you. This is the Word in which all sorrow ends.
W1:110.7 I am as  God created me. His Son can suffer nothing. And I am His Son.
W1:110.8  mind, try to discover in your mind the Self Who is the holy Son of  God Himself. Seek Him within you Who is Christ in you, the Son of God
W1:110.8  of God Himself. Seek Him within you Who is Christ in you, the Son of  God and brother to the world—the savior who has been forever saved,
W1:110.9 You are as  God created you. Today honor your Self. Let graven images you made to
W1:110.9  Today honor your Self. Let graven images you made to be the Son of  God instead of what He is be worshiped not today. Deep in your mind
W1:110.10  by letting idols go and opening our hands and hearts and minds to  God today.
W1:110.12 I am as  God created me.
W1:110.13 Let us declare this truth as often as we can. This is the Word of  God that sets you free. This is the key that opens up the gate of
W1:110.13  up the gate of Heaven, and which lets you enter in the peace of  God and His eternity.
W1:R3.12  of the day and make it holy, worthy of God's Son, acceptable to  God and to your Self.
W1:111.3  light and strength are one. I see through strength, the gift of  God to me. My weakness is the dark His gift dispels by giving me His
W1:112.2  light and joy and peace. I welcome them into the home I share with  God, because I am a part of Him.
W1:112.3 [94] I am as  God created me. I will remain forever as I was, Created by the
W1:112.7 I am as  God created me.
W1:113.2  I am One Self, completely whole, at one with all creation and with  God.
W1:114.2 [97] I am Spirit. I am the Son of  God. No body can contain my spirit nor impose on me a limitation God
W1:114.2  of God. No body can contain my spirit nor impose on me a limitation  God created not.
W1:114.3  for salvation. What can my function be but to accept the Word of  God, Who has created me, for what I am and will forever be?
W1:115.3  to God's plan for salvation. I am essential to the plan of  God for the salvation of the world. For He gave me His plan that I
W1:117.2 [103]  God, being Love, is also happiness. Let me remember love is
W1:119.2  in any way. I am God's Son whose Self rests safely in the Mind of  God.
W1:120.2 [109] I rest in  God. I rest in God today and let Him work in me and through me,
W1:120.2 [109] I rest in God. I rest in  God today and let Him work in me and through me, while I rest in Him
W1:120.3 [110] I am as  God created me. I am God's Son. Today I lay aside all sick
W1:120.7 I am as  God created me.
W1:121.14  mortal, fallible, and full of sin and know I am the perfect Son of  God.
W1:122.3  unforgiving eyes upon the world. It lets you recognize the Son of  God and clears your memory of all dead thoughts so that remembrance
W1:122.6  receive. There is no plan but this for the salvation of the Son of  God. Let us today rejoice that this is so, for here we have an
W1:122.7  in aimless wandering again. Accept salvation now. It is the gift of  God and not the world. The world can give no gifts of any value to a
W1:122.7  can give no gifts of any value to a mind which has received what  God has given as its own. God wills salvation be received today and
W1:122.7  value to a mind which has received what God has given as its own.  God wills salvation be received today and that the intricacies of
W1:123.3  far transcends your meager gifts and petty judgments of the one whom  God established as His Son.
W1:123.4  We sing the song of thankfulness today in honor of the Self Which  God has willed to be our true Identity in Him. Today we smile on
W1:123.4  that in our solitude a Friend has come to speak the saving Word of  God to us.
W1:123.6 Receive the thanks of  God today, as you give thanks to Him. For He would offer you the
W1:124.1 Today we will again give thanks for our Identity in  God. Our home is safe, protection guaranteed in all we do, power and
W1:124.1  takes on a shining light which blesses and which heals. At one with  God and with the universe, we go our way rejoicing, with the thought
W1:124.1  with the universe, we go our way rejoicing, with the thought that  God Himself goes everywhere with us.
W1:124.2  everything we see reflects the holiness within the mind at one with  God and with itself. How easily do errors disappear and death give
W1:124.2  everlasting life. Our shining footprints point the way to truth, for  God is our Companion as we walk the world a little while. And those
W1:124.3  after and to those who went before or stayed with us a while. And  God, Who loves us with the equal love in which we were created,
W1:124.6  miracle can ever be denied to those who know that they are one with  God. No thought of theirs but has the power to heal all forms of
W1:124.7 We join in this awareness as we say that we are one with  God. For in these words we say as well that we are saved and healed,
W1:124.8  best, devote a half an hour to the thought that you are one with  God. This is our first attempt at an extended period for which we
W1:124.11  you look on is your own. Count this half hour as your gift to  God, in certainty that His return will be a sense of love you cannot
W1:124.13 Let me remember I am one with  God, at one with all my brothers and my Self, in everlasting holiness
W1:125.2  other means can save it, for God's plan is simply this: the Son of  God is free to save himself, given the Word of God to be his Guide,
W1:125.2  this: the Son of God is free to save himself, given the Word of  God to be his Guide, forever in his mind and at his side to lead him
W1:125.3  from all the judgments which the world has laid upon the Son of  God. It knows him not. Today we will not listen to the world, but
W1:125.3  we will not listen to the world, but wait in silence for the Word of  God.
W1:125.4 Hear, holy Son of  God, your Father speak. His Voice would give to you His holy Word to
W1:125.4  of salvation and the holy time of peace. We gather at the throne of  God today, the quiet place within the mind where He abides forever in
W1:125.7  to the world and choose instead a gentle listening to the Word of  God. He speaks from nearer than your heart to you. His Voice is
W1:125.8  and of Son. In quiet listen to your Self today, and let Him tell you  God has never left His Son, and you have never left your Self.
W1:125.9  be still and listen. You will hear the Word in which the Will of  God the Son joins in His Father's Will, at one with It, with no
W1:125.10  a special purpose for this day—in quiet to receive the Word of  God.
W1:126.6  to restore your unity with him to your awareness. It is not what  God intended it to be for you.
W1:127.1  It never alters with a person or a circumstance. It is the Heart of  God, and also of His Son.
W1:127.2  judge between the righteous and the sinner and perceive the Son of  God in separate parts.
W1:127.4  you are and what love is. Love's meaning is your own, and shared by  God Himself. For what you are is what He is. There is no love but
W1:127.7 Let us together, then, be glad to give some time to  God today and understand there is no better use for time than this.
W1:127.7  upon its meager offerings and senseless gifts, and let the gift of  God replace them all.
W1:127.12 I bless you, brother, with the Love of  God which I would share with you. For I would learn the joyous lesson
W1:129.4  and plain as day, remains unlimited for all eternity. And  God Himself speaks to His Son as His Son speaks to Him. Their
W1:130.8  your hands of all the petty treasures of this world. You wait for  God to help you as you say:
W1:130.9 It is impossible to see two worlds. Let me accept the strength  God offers me and see no value in this world that I may find my
W1:130.10  God will be there. For you have called upon the great unfailing Power
W1:131.6  not want it. You will reach the goal you really want as certainly as  God created you in sinlessness.
W1:131.7  it is past or in the future. Yet this cannot be, if it is where  God wills His Son to be. How could the Will of God be in the past or
W1:131.7  be, if it is where God wills His Son to be. How could the Will of  God be in the past or yet to happen? What He wills is now, without a
W1:131.8  and uncertain goals, its painful pleasures, and its tragic joys.  God made no contradictions. What denies its own existence and attacks
W1:131.9  God does not suffer conflict. Nor is His creation split in two. How
W1:131.9  creation split in two. How could it be His Son could be in hell when  God Himself established him in Heaven? Could he lose what the Eternal
W1:131.10  we will not choose a paradox in place of truth. How could the Son of  God make time to take away the Will of God? He thus denies himself
W1:131.10  truth. How could the Son of God make time to take away the Will of  God? He thus denies himself and contradicts what has no opposite. He
W1:131.17  effortlessly past it to the light. Today that day has come. Today  God keeps His ancient promise to His holy Son, as does His Son
W1:132.10  for it contains the firm foundation for today's idea. You are as  God created you. There is no place where you can suffer and no time
W1:132.10  state. How can a world of time and place exist if you remain as  God created you?
W1:132.12 Yet if you are as  God created you, you cannot think apart from Him nor make what does
W1:132.12  and must set it free that you may know the thoughts you share with  God.
W1:132.13  for this release to give you fatherhood, not of illusions, but as  God in truth. God shares His Fatherhood with you who are His Son, for
W1:132.13  to give you fatherhood, not of illusions, but as God in truth.  God shares His Fatherhood with you who are His Son, for He makes no
W1:132.14 There is no world because it is a thought apart from  God and made to separate the Father and the Son and break away a part
W1:132.14  and made to separate the Father and the Son and break away a part of  God Himself and thus destroy His wholeness. Can a world which comes
W1:132.17 I who remain as  God created me would loose the world from all I thought it was. For I
W1:134.10  choosing meaningful and keep your mind as free of guilt and pain as  God Himself intended it to be and as it is in truth. It is but lies
W1:135.5  life? What but the body falters and must fail to serve the Son of  God as worthy host?
W1:135.27  come without defense to learn the part for you within the plan of  God. What little plans or magical beliefs can still have value when
W1:135.27  have value when you have received your function from the Voice of  God Himself?
W1:135.29  I would keep it holy. I will not defend myself, because the Son of  God needs no defense against the truth of his reality.
W1:136.11  believe that Heaven quails before such mad attacks as these, with  God made blind by your illusions, truth turned into lies, and all the
W1:136.12  God knows not of your plans to change His Will. The universe remains
W1:136.13  away its gifts, and yet it knows with perfect certainty that what  God wills for you must be received.
W1:136.14  demonstrates that time is an illusion. For it lets you think what  God has given you is not the truth right now, as it must be. The
W1:136.14  given you is not the truth right now, as it must be. The thoughts of  God are quite apart from time. For time is but another meaningless
W1:136.14  but another meaningless defense you made against the truth. Yet what  God wills is here, and you remain as He created you.
W1:137.11  the grace of healing it is given them to give. What is opposed to  God does not exist. And who accepts it not within his mind becomes a
W1:137.13  curse for blessing, pain for joy, and separation for the peace of  God. Is not a minute of the hour worth the giving to receive a gift
W1:137.16  you receive, to hold but what you give, and to receive the Word of  God to take the place of all the foolish thoughts that ever were
W1:139.1  end of choice. For here we come to a decision to accept ourselves as  God created us. And what is choice except uncertainty of what we are?
W1:139.7  for what you are is certain. It is set forever in the holy Mind of  God and in your own. It is so far beyond all doubt and question that
W1:139.9  about yourself and go your way rejoicing in the endless Love of  God. It is but this that we are asked to do. It is but this that we
W1:139.11 I will accept Atonement for myself, for I remain as  God created me.
W1:139.12 We have not lost the knowledge that  God gave to us when He created us like Him. We can remember it for
W1:139.13  foolish cobwebs which the world would weave around the holy Son of  God. And learn the fragile nature of the chains that seem to keep the
W1:139.14 I will accept Atonement for myself, for I remain as  God created me.
W1:140.5 Peace be to you who have been cured in  God and not in idle dreams. For cure must come from holiness, and
W1:140.5  from holiness, and holiness cannot be found where sin is cherished.  God abides in holy temples. He is barred where sin has entered. Yet
W1:140.10  which will cure all ills as one, restoring saneness to the Son of  God. No voice but this can cure. Today we hear a single Voice which
W1:140.10  all illusions end, and peace returns to the eternal quiet home of  God.
W1:R4.3 My mind holds only what I think with  God.
W1:R4.6 And yet your mind holds only what you think with  God. Your self-deceptions cannot take the place of truth. No more
W1:R4.8 My mind holds only what I think with  God.
W1:R4.9  this thought will be enough to set the day along the lines which  God appointed and to place His Mind in charge of all the thoughts you
W1:R4.10  time for its intended purpose. Let each word shine with the meaning  God has given it as it was given to you through His Voice. Let each
W1:R4.12  light, from grief to joy, from pain to peace, from sin to holiness.  God offers thanks to you who practice thus the keeping of His Word.
W1:142.2 [124] Let me remember I am one with  God.
W1:151.3  think more real than what is witnessed to by the eternal Voice of  God Himself.
W1:151.6  will clear the way to recognize yourself and let the Voice for  God alone be Judge of what is worthy of your own belief.
W1:151.7  merely bear false witness to God's Son. He recognizes only what  God loves, and in the holy light of what He sees do all the ego's
W1:151.8  before Its face. Christ cannot doubt Himself. The Voice of  God can only honor Him, rejoicing in His perfect, everlasting
W1:151.10  no longer doubt that only good can come to you who are beloved of  God, for He will judge all happenings and teach the single lesson
W1:151.13  wordlessly today, except at the beginning of the time you spend with  God. We introduce these times with but a single, slow repeating of
W1:151.13  them back to you as clean ideas that do not contradict the Will of  God.
W1:151.14  as miracles which joyously proclaim the wholeness and the happiness  God wills His Son as proof of His eternal Love. And as each thought
W1:151.15  your thoughts are purified. So are you taught to teach the Son of  God the holy lesson of his sanctity. No one can fail to listen when
W1:151.15  his sanctity. No one can fail to listen when you hear the Voice for  God give honor to God's Son. And everyone will share the thoughts
W1:151.17  world the joyous news that truth has no illusions and the peace of  God, through us, belongs to everyone.
W1:152.5 As  God created you, you must remain unchangeable with transitory states
W1:152.6  that you believe to think you made the world you see is arrogance?  God made it not. Of this you can be sure. What can He know of the
W1:152.7 To think that  God made chaos, contradicts His Will, invented opposites to truth,
W1:152.7  would see at once these things are not of Him. And can you see what  God created not? To think you can is merely to believe you can
W1:152.7  not? To think you can is merely to believe you can perceive what  God willed not to be. And what could be more arrogant than this?
W1:152.10  we accept of Him that which we are and humbly recognize the Son of  God.
W1:152.14  will come again to our awareness, grateful to restore His home to  God as it was meant to be.
W1:152.15  speaks for you and for your Father. He will substitute the peace of  God for all your frantic thoughts, the truth of God for
W1:152.15  the peace of God for all your frantic thoughts, the truth of  God for self-deceptions, and God's Son for your illusions of yourself.
W1:153.5 You do not realize what you have done to sabotage the holy peace of  God by your defensiveness. For you behold the Son of God as but a
W1:153.5  holy peace of God by your defensiveness. For you behold the Son of  God as but a victim to attack by fantasies, by dreams, and by
W1:153.7  Father's anger. What can save you now from your delusion of an angry  god whose fearful image you believe you see at work in all the evils
W1:153.8  to cross our minds, and we mistook the figures in it for the Son of  God, its tiny instant for eternity.
W1:153.10  possibly be needed by the ones who are among the chosen ones of  God by His election and their own as well?
W1:153.11  of God's ministers to help their brothers choose as they have done.  God has elected all, but few have come to realize His Will is but
W1:153.13  from the pure and holy minds of Heaven's children and the Son of  God. We pause but for a moment more to play our final happy game upon
W1:153.15  we will find that half an hour is too short a time to spend with  God. Nor will we willingly give less at night in gratitude and joy.
W1:153.16  peace, as we remember to be faithful to the will we share with  God. At times, perhaps, a minute, even less, will be the most that we
W1:153.16  will be unable to withdraw a little while and turn our thoughts to  God.
W1:153.17 Yet when we can, we will observe our trust as ministers of  God in hourly remembrance of our mission and His Love. And we will
W1:153.21  be no doubt that you will reach your final goal. The ministers of  God can never fail because the love and strength and peace that shine
W1:154.2 Whatever your appointed role may be, it was selected by the Voice for  God, Whose function is to speak for you as well. Seeing your
W1:154.3  entails, and to succeed in everything you do that is related to it.  God has joined His Son in this, and thus His Son becomes His
W1:154.4 It is this joining through the Voice of  God of Father and of Son that sets apart salvation from the world. It
W1:154.4  salvation from all sin, with guilt abolished in the mind that  God created sinless. Now this mind becomes aware again of Who created
W1:154.4  itself. So is its Self the one reality in which its will and that of  God are joined.
W1:154.7  fulfills his role by giving all the messages away. The messengers of  God perform their part by their acceptance of His messages as for
W1:154.8 Would you receive the messages of  God? For thus do you become His messengers. You are appointed now.
W1:154.9 You who are now the messengers of  God receive His messages, for that is part of your appointed role. He
W1:154.9  yet to be accomplished. He Who has received for you the messages of  God would have them be received by you as well. For thus do you
W1:154.12  miracles and then receive a thousand more but will not know that  God Himself has left no gift beyond what you already have nor has
W1:154.14 I am among the ministers of  God, and I am grateful that I have the means by which to recognize
W1:155.5  while you serve yourself and set their footsteps on the way which  God has opened up to you, and them through you.
W1:155.8  only gain. Illusion can but seem to hold in chains the holy Son of  God. It is but from illusions he is saved. As they step back, he
W1:155.11  the things that pass, and miracles are purposeless, the holy Son of  God will make no journeys. There will be no wish to be illusion
W1:155.12 We walk to  God. Pause and reflect on this. Could any way be holier or more
W1:155.12  more than everything or offer less and still content the holy Son of  God? We walk to God. The truth that walks before us now is one with
W1:155.12  or offer less and still content the holy Son of God? We walk to  God. The truth that walks before us now is one with Him and leads us
W1:155.13 Your feet are safely set upon the way that leads the world to  God. Look not to ways which seem to lead you elsewhere. Dreams are
W1:156.1  leave not their source. If this be true, how can you be apart from  God? How could you walk the world alone and separate from your Source?
W1:156.2  uncertain and in others sure. You cannot walk the world apart from  God because you could not be without Him. He is what your life is.
W1:156.5  thus they see in you their holiness, saluting you as savior and as  God. Accept their reverence, for it is due to Holiness itself Which
W1:156.6  ridiculous perhaps, but who would waste an instant in approach to  God Himself for such a senseless whim?
W1:156.7  all its fantasies. They keep you bound no longer. The approach to  God is near. And in the little interval of doubt which still remains,
W1:156.8  has ended doubting and established peace. Today let doubting cease.  God speaks for you in answering your question with these words:
W1:156.9 I walk with  God in perfect holiness. I light the world, I light my mind and all
W1:156.9  holiness. I light the world, I light my mind and all the minds which  God created one with me.
W1:157.5  your mind that it becomes the touchstone for the holy thoughts of  God.
W1:158.7  law. It does not look upon a body and mistake it for the Son whom  God created. It beholds a light beyond the body, an idea beyond what
W1:158.8  this you give today—see no one as a body. Greet him as the Son of  God he is, acknowledging that he is one with you in holiness.
W1:158.10  to let Christ's vision shine on you and offer you the peace of  God.
W1:159.3  pictures Heaven, for it sees a world so like to Heaven that what  God created perfect can be mirrored there. The darkened glass the
W1:159.10  of miracles set out for you to give. Are you not worth the gift when  God appointed it be given you? Judge not God's Son, but follow in the
W1:159.10  the means for a return to our unlost and everlasting sanctity in  God.
W1:160.4  the stranger? Is it fear or you that is unsuited to the home which  God provided for His Son? Is fear His own, created in His likeness?
W1:160.7  him your rightful place. Yet is your Self as certain of Its own as  God is of His Son. He cannot be confused about creation. He is sure
W1:160.8  to your Father, nor is your Creator stranger made to you. Whom  God has joined remains forever one, at home in Him, no stranger to
W1:161.1  by, and Heaven now restored. Here is the answer of the Voice of  God.
W1:161.9  eyes behold in one whom Heaven cherishes, the angels love, and  God created perfect. This is his reality. And in Christ's vision is
W1:161.14 Give me your blessing, holy Son of  God. I would behold you with the eyes of Christ, and see my perfect
W1:161.15  He will answer Whom you called upon, for He will hear the Voice of  God in you and answer in your own. Behold him now whom you had seen
W1:162.1  you as you advance. These words are sacred, for they are the words  God gave in answer to the world you made. By them it disappears, and
W1:162.1  illusions vanish as these words are spoken. For they come from  God.
W1:162.4  them. So wholly is it changed that it is now the treasury in which  God places all His gifts and all His Love to be distributed to all
W1:162.4  because its sharing is unlimited. And thus you learn to think with  God. Christ's vision has restored your sight by salvaging your mind.
W1:162.6  invitation, eager to unite with one like him in holiness? You are as  God created you. These words dispel the night, and darkness is no
W1:162.6  is come today to bless the world, for you have recognized the Son of  God, and in your recognition is the world's.
W1:163.2 Embodiment of fear, the host of sin,  god of the guilty, and the lord of all illusions and deceptions, does
W1:163.4  bow down to idols such as this? Here is the strength and might of  God Himself perceived within an idol made of dust. Here is the
W1:163.4  perceived within an idol made of dust. Here is the opposite of  God proclaimed as lord of all creation, stronger than God's Will for
W1:163.4  the headstone death has placed upon the body of the holy Son of  God.
W1:163.5  for he has passed to dust. It says but this: “Here lies a witness  God is dead.” And this it writes again and still again, while all the
W1:163.7 The idea of the death of  God is so preposterous that even the insane have difficulty in
W1:163.7  even the insane have difficulty in believing it. For it implies that  God was once alive and somehow perished, killed, apparently, by those
W1:163.8  it now in every form for their salvation and our own as well.  God made not death. Whatever form it takes must therefore be
W1:164.1  for beyond them all He hears the song of Heaven and the Voice of  God more clear, more meaningful, more near.
W1:164.9  joy this very day. Practice in earnest, and the gift is yours. Would  God deceive you? Can His promise fail? Can you withhold so little
W1:165.2 The Thought of  God created you. It left you not, nor have you ever been apart from
W1:165.2  everything is one with you because It left you not. The Thought of  God protects you, cares for you, makes soft your resting place and
W1:165.2  and everlasting life shine in your mind because the Thought of  God has left you not and still abides with you.
W1:165.4  within it. Till you welcome it as yours, uncertainty remains. Yet  God is fair. Sureness is not required to receive what only your
W1:165.5  your mind has come to lay aside denial and accept the Thought of  God as its inheritance.
W1:165.6  of the world. Your destiny lies there and nowhere else. Would  God consent to let His Son remain forever starved by his denial of
W1:165.7  hope. For hope indeed is justified. Your doubts are meaningless, for  God is certain. And the Thought of Him is never absent. Sureness must
W1:165.7  have interposed between Him and your certainty of Him. We count on  God and not upon ourselves to give us certainty. And in His Name we
W1:166.2  underlies the making of the world. This world is not the Will of  God, and so it is not real. Yet those who think it real must still
W1:166.2  believes in two creators or in one, himself alone. But never in one  God.
W1:166.3 The gifts of  God are not acceptable to anyone who holds such strange beliefs. He
W1:166.5  to nowhere. Still he wanders on in misery and poverty, alone though  God is with him, and a treasure his so great that everything the
W1:166.8  And what becomes of all the tragedy you sought to make for him whom  God intended only joy?
W1:166.10 God's Will does not oppose. It merely is. It is not  God you have imprisoned in your plan to lose your Self. He does not
W1:166.12  saved you from the solitude you sought to make in which to hide from  God. He has reminded you of all the gifts that God has given you. He
W1:166.12  in which to hide from God. He has reminded you of all the gifts that  God has given you. He speaks as well of what becomes your will when
W1:166.15  Become the living proof of what Christ's touch can offer everyone.  God has entrusted all His gifts to you. Be witness in your happiness
W1:166.15  gifts and feel the touch of Christ. Such is your mission now. For  God entrusts the giving of His gifts to all who have received them.
W1:167.1  It does not have degrees. It is the one condition in which all that  God created share. Like all His thoughts, it has no opposite. There
W1:167.1  all His thoughts, it has no opposite. There is no death because what  God created shares His Life. There is no death because an opposite to
W1:167.1  created shares His Life. There is no death because an opposite to  God does not exist. There is no death because the Father and the Son
W1:167.3  It is why you cannot die. Its truth established you as one with  God.
W1:167.8  God creates only mind awake. He does not sleep, and His creations
W1:167.8  of life. Forever unopposed by opposites of any kind, the thoughts of  God remain forever changeless with the power to extend forever
W1:167.10  even an instant where the thought of life eternal has been set by  God Himself.
W1:168.1  God speaks to us. Shall we not speak to Him? He is not distant. He
W1:168.3 Today we ask of  God the gift He has most carefully preserved within our hearts,
W1:168.3  our hearts, waiting to be acknowledged. This the gift by which  God leans to us and lifts us up, taking salvation's final step
W1:168.4  God loves His Son. Request Him now to give the means by which this
W1:169.1 Grace is an aspect of the Love of  God which is most like the state prevailing in the unity of truth. It
W1:169.2 Grace is acceptance of the Love of  God within a world of seeming hate and fear. By grace alone the hate
W1:169.4  determined it. And yet we urge you to bear witness to the Word of  God to hasten the experience of truth and speed its advent into every
W1:169.5 Oneness is simply the idea  God is. And in His Being, He encompasses all things. No mind holds
W1:169.6  of time, forgiveness, and the holy face of Christ. The Son of  God has merely disappeared into His Father, as his Father has in him.
W1:169.10  nearer each uncertain heart that does not beat as yet in tune with  God. Forgiveness is the central theme which runs throughout
W1:170.7 With love as enemy must cruelty become a  god, and gods demand that those who worship them obey their dictates
W1:170.8 Today we look upon this cruel  god dispassionately. And we note that though his lips are smeared
W1:170.9  piece of stone? Or will you make another idol to replace it? For the  god of cruelty takes many forms. Another can be found.
W1:170.10  block, impenetrable, fearful and beyond surmounting, is the fear of  God Himself. Here is the basic premise which enthrones the thought of
W1:170.10  Here is the basic premise which enthrones the thought of fear as  god. For fear is loved by those who worship it, and love appears to
W1:170.11  beyond conception, striking down all who acknowledge Him to be their  God.
W1:170.12  for the last time upon this bit of carven stone you made and call it  god no longer. You have reached this place before, but you have
W1:170.12  have reached this place before, but you have chosen that this cruel  god remain with you in still another form, and so the fear of God
W1:170.12  cruel god remain with you in still another form, and so the fear of  God returned with you. This time you leave it here. And you return to
W1:170.13  to Christ, and He looks through them. Now your voice belongs to  God and echoes His. And now your heart remains at peace forever. You
W1:170.13  given by your Creator, are restored to you at last. The Call of  God is heard and answered. Now has fear made way for love, as God
W1:170.13  of God is heard and answered. Now has fear made way for love, as  God Himself replaces cruelty.
W1:R5.10  to you from Him Who sees your bitter need and knows the answer  God has given Him. Together we review these thoughts. Together we
W1:R5.10  and effort to them. And together we will teach them to our brothers.  God would not have Heaven incomplete. It waits for you, as I do. I am
W1:R5.12  Your glory undefiled forever. And your wholeness now complete, as  God established it. You are His Son, completing His extension in your
W1:171.2 [151] All things are echoes of the Voice of  God. God is but Love, and therefore so am I.
W1:172.3 [154] I am among the ministers of  God. God is but Love, and therefore so am I.
W1:173.3 [156] I walk with  God in perfect holiness. God is but Love, and therefore so am I.
W1:176.2 [161] Give me your blessing, holy Son of  God. God is but Love, and therefore so am I.
W1:176.3 [162] I am as  God created me. God is but Love, and therefore so am I.
W1:177.2 [163] There is no death. The Son of  God is free. God is but Love, and therefore so am I.
W1:178.2 [165] Let not my mind deny the thought of  God. God is but Love, and therefore so am I.
W1:178.3 [166] I am entrusted with the gifts of  God. God is but Love, and therefore so am I.
W1:179.2 [167] There is one life, and that I share with  God. God is but Love, and therefore so am I.
W1:180.3 [170] There is no cruelty in  God and none in me. God is but Love, and therefore so am I.
W1:181.10  to the experience we ask for now. Our sinlessness is but the Will of  God. This instant is our willing one with His.
W1:183.4 Repeat the Name of  God and little names have lost their meaning. No temptation but
W1:183.4  the names of all the gods you value. They have lost the name of  god you gave them. They become anonymous and valueless to you,
W1:183.4  anonymous and valueless to you, although before you let the Name of  God replace their little names, you stood before them worshipfully,
W1:183.5 Repeat the Name of  God and call upon your Self, Whose Name is His. Repeat His Name and
W1:183.5  earth slip into right perspective. Those who call upon the Name of  God cannot mistake the nameless for the Name, nor sin for grace, nor
W1:183.5  for the Name, nor sin for grace, nor bodies for the holy Son of  God.
W1:183.6  quiet minds, you have established there an altar which reaches to  God Himself and to His Son. Practice but this today; repeat God's
W1:183.8 Thus do we give an invitation which can never be refused. And  God will come and answer it Himself. Think not He hears the little
W1:183.11 Turn to the Name of  God for your release, and it is given you. No prayer but this is
W1:183.11  thought he made be nameless now, and in their place the holy Name of  God becomes his judgment of their worthlessness.
W1:183.12  have disappeared. The universe consists of nothing but the Son of  God who calls upon his Father. And his Father's Voice gives answer in
W1:184.10  forget the darkness. Here you understand the Word, the Name Which  God has given you; the One Identity Which all things share; the one
W1:184.11  them but for convenience, yet do not forget they share the Name of  God along with you.
W1:184.12  God has no name. And yet His Name becomes the final lesson that all
W1:184.12  reflection. Every gap is closed and separation healed. The Name of  God is the inheritance He gave to those who chose the teaching of the
W1:184.13 No one can fail who seeks the meaning of the Name of  God. Experience must come to supplement the word. But first you must
W1:185.1  Heaven would be completely given back to full awareness, memory of  God entirely restored, the resurrection of all creation fully
W1:185.2  He cannot make a hell and think it real. He wants the peace of  God, and it is given him. For that is all he wants, and that is all
W1:185.3  one intent become so strong that what they will becomes the Will of  God. For minds can only join in truth. In dreams no two can share the
W1:185.4  They merely bargain. And what bargain can give them the peace of  God? Illusions come to take His place. And what He means is lost to
W1:185.5 To mean you want the peace of  God is to renounce all dreams. For no one means these words who wants
W1:185.7  that we really mean the words we say. We want the peace of  God. This is no idle wish. These words do not request another dream
W1:185.9  “Is this what I would have, in place of Heaven and the peace of  God?” This is the choice you make. Be not deceived that it is
W1:185.10 You want the peace of  God. And so do all who seem to seek for dreams. For them as well as
W1:185.11 No one who truly seeks the peace of  God can fail to find it. For he merely asks that he deceive himself

W1:186.7 All this the Voice for  God relates to you. And as He speaks, the image trembles and seeks to

W1:186.8 And so we find our peace. We will accept the function  God has given us, for all illusions rest upon the weird belief that
W1:186.9 Is this the Son of  God? Could He create such instability and call it Son? He Who is
W1:187.9  to look upon such lovely holiness? The great illusion of the fear of  God diminishes to nothingness before the purity that you will look on

W1:187.10  Father, one Creator and one thought, we stand together as one Son of  God. Not separate from Him Who is our Source; not distant from one
W1:187.10  as one, we stand in blessedness and give as we receive. The Name of  God is on our lips. And as we look within, we see the purity of

W1:188.10 The peace of  God is shining in me now. Let all things shine upon me in that peace,
W1:189.1  is a reflection of the thought we practice now. To feel the Love of  God within you is to see the world anew, shining in innocence, alive
W1:189.3 This is the world the Love of  God reveals. It is so different from the world you see through
W1:189.5  in death's sharp-pointed, bony fingers. If you feel the Love of  God within you, you look out upon a world of mercy and of love.
W1:189.7  this: be still and lay aside all thoughts of what you are and what  God is, all concepts you have learned about the world, all images you
W1:189.7  forget this course, and come with wholly empty hands unto your  God.
W1:189.8  to allow all obstacles that you have interposed between the Son and  God the Father to be quietly removed forever. God will do His part in
W1:189.8  between the Son and God the Father to be quietly removed forever.  God will do His part in joyful and immediate response. Ask and
W1:189.8  Ask and receive. But do not make demands nor point the road to  God by which He should appear to you. The way to reach Him is merely

W1:190.3 Pain is a sign illusions reign in place of truth. It demonstrates  God is denied, confused with fear, perceived as mad, and seen as
W1:190.3  with fear, perceived as mad, and seen as traitor to Himself. If  God is real, there is no pain. If pain is real, there is no God. For
W1:190.3  If God is real, there is no pain. If pain is real, there is no  God. For vengeance is not part of love. And fear, denying love and

W1:190.6  entirely as you elect to change your mind and choose the joy of  God as what you really want. Your Self is radiant in this holy joy,
W1:190.8  Pain is the ransom you have gladly paid not to be free. In pain is  God denied the Son He loves. In pain does fear appear to triumph over
W1:190.9  Here will you understand there is no pain. Here does the joy of  God belong to you.
W1:190.11  our joy instead of pain, our holiness in place of sin, the peace of  God instead of conflict, and the light of Heaven for the darkness of

W1:191.3  and ghostly thought which mocks creation and which laughs at  God. Deny your own Identity, and you assail the universe alone,
W1:191.4  except a game you play in which identity can be denied? You are as  God created you. All else but this one thing is folly to believe. In
W1:191.6 One holy thought like this, and you are free: you are the holy Son of  God Himself. And with this holy thought, you learn as well that you
W1:191.8 I am the holy Son of  God Himself. I cannot suffer, cannot be in pain; I cannot lose, nor
W1:191.10  time began. For time has lost its hold upon the world. The Son of  God has come in glory to redeem the lost, to save the helpless, and
W1:191.12 Then let the Son of  God awaken from his sleep, and opening his holy eyes return again to
W1:191.13  die till you accept your own eternal life. You are the holy Son of  God Himself. Remember this and all the world is free. Remember this
W1:192.1  preserved, extending love, creating in its name, forever one with  God and with your Self. Yet what can such a function mean within a
W1:192.3  come to earth. For being Heaven-borne, it has no form at all. Yet  God created One Who has the power to translate into form the wholly
W1:192.4  and leaves the world a clean and unmarked slate on which the Word of  God can now replace the senseless symbols written there before.
W1:192.6  the body is its home. Only forgiveness can restore the peace that  God intended for His holy Son. Only forgiveness can persuade the Son
W1:192.7  give up nothing. But we have indeed been given everything by  God. Yet do we need forgiveness to perceive that this is so. Without
W1:192.10 Be merciful today. The Son of  God deserves your mercy. It is he who asks that you accept the way to
W1:192.10  forgive him, that you may accept him back as your Identity. He is as  God created him. And you are what he is. Forgive him now his sins,

W1:193.3  God offers no forgiveness, for He knows no sin is possible. And yet
W1:193.3  by every mind which had forgotten it as it exists in Heaven and in  God. Thus He encompassed what He could not see nor understand by
W1:193.4 The One Whom  God created to replace the foolish thoughts which crept into the mind
W1:193.5 These are the lessons  God would have you learn. His Will reflects them all, and they
W1:193.12  God would not have you suffer thus. He would help you forgive
W1:193.12  help you forgive yourself. His Son does not remember who he is. And  God would have him not forget His Love and all the gifts His Love

W1:193.13 All things are lessons  God would have you learn. He would not leave an unforgiving thought
W1:193.13  yet unshed and none but waiting their appointed time to fall. For  God has willed that laughter should replace each one and that His Son
W1:193.15  Truth is His message; truth His teaching is. His are the lessons  God would have us learn.
W1:193.17  unbound, in peace eternal in the world of time. This is the lesson  God would have you learn: there is a way to look on everything that

W1:194.3  In no one instant can one even die. And so each instant given unto  God in passing, with the next one given Him already, is a time of
W1:194.4  God holds your future as He holds your past and present. They are one
W1:194.7  worry can beset the one who gives his future to the loving hands of  God? What can he suffer? What can cause him pain or bring experience
W1:194.8 Place, then, your future in the hands of  God. For thus you call the memory of Him to come again, replacing all

W1:195.4 You do not offer  God your gratitude because your brother is more slave than you, nor
W1:195.4  can only be sincere if it is joined to love. We offer thanks to  God our Father that in us all things will find their freedom. It will

W1:195.8  aside. What more remains as obstacles to peace? The fear of  God is now undone at last, and we forgive without comparing. Thus we
W1:195.9  the single thought we substitute for these insane perceptions.  God has cared for us and calls us Son. Can there be more than this?
W1:195.10  is but an aspect of the love which is the Source of all creation.  God gives thanks to you, His Son, for being what you are—His own
W1:195.10  road except the way of gratitude, and thus we go who walk the way to  God.
W1:196.4  years can easily be done in just one instant by the grace of  God.
W1:196.5  to be salvation. Yet it merely stood for the belief the fear of  God is real. And what is that but hell? Who could believe his Father
W1:196.6  must be entirely impossible, how could there be escape? The fear of  God is real to anyone who thinks this thought is true. And he will
W1:196.8  impossible that you be hurt except by your own thoughts, the fear of  God must disappear. You do not now believe that fear is caused
W1:196.8  disappear. You do not now believe that fear is caused without. And  God, Whom you had thought to banish, can be welcomed back within the
W1:196.9  and pursuit. Nor need you hide in terror from the deadly fear of  God projection hides behind. The thing you dread the most is your
W1:196.10  within. It seemed to be an enemy outside you had to fear. And thus a  god outside yourself became your mortal enemy—the source of fear.
W1:196.11  instant is the time as well in which salvation comes. For fear of  God has disappeared. And you can call on Him to save you from
W1:196.12 There is no thought of  God that does not go with you to help you reach that instant and to
W1:196.12  and to go beyond it quickly, surely, and forever. When the fear of  God is gone, there are no obstacles that still remain between you and
W1:196.12  are no obstacles that still remain between you and the holy peace of  God. How kind and merciful is the idea we practice! Give it welcome,
W1:197.2 How easily are  God and guilt confused by those who know not what their thoughts can
W1:197.4  accepted universally and thankfully acknowledged by the Heart of  God Himself. And would you take them back when He has gratefully
W1:197.5  God blesses every gift you give to Him and every gift is given Him
W1:197.5  Him because it can be given only to yourself, and what belongs to  God must be His own. Yet you will never realize His gifts are sure,
W1:197.6  think you see outside yourself, and you can never think the gifts of  God are lent but for a little while before He snatches them away
W1:197.7  forever over. Thank your Self for this, for He is grateful only unto  God, and He gives thanks for you unto Himself. To everyone who lives
W1:197.8 Thanks be to you, the holy Son of  God, for as you were created you contain all things within your Self.
W1:197.8  you contain all things within your Self. And you are still as  God created you. Nor can you dim the light of your perfection. In
W1:197.8  you dim the light of your perfection. In your heart, the Heart of  God is laid. He holds you dear because you are Himself. All gratitude
W1:197.9  can only be His thoughts, sharing with Him the holy thoughts of  God. Earn now the gratitude you have denied yourself when you forgot
W1:197.9  the gratitude you have denied yourself when you forgot the function  God has given you. But never think that He has ever ceased to offer
W1:198.3  to where the truth must be and gives direction with the certainty of  God Himself. It is a dream in which the Son of God awakens to his
W1:198.3  with the certainty of God Himself. It is a dream in which the Son of  God awakens to his Self and to his Father, knowing They are one.
W1:198.4  death. How could there be another way, when this one is the plan of  God Himself? And why would you oppose it, quarrel with it, seek to
W1:198.6  joy that ever can be found upon this earth. His words are born in  God, and come to you with Heaven's love upon them. Those who hear His
W1:198.6  merge as one at last. And as this one will fade away, the Word of  God will come to take its place, for it will be remembered then and
W1:198.8  mad to think that you could be condemned and that the holy Son of  God can die! The stillness of your Self remains unmoved, untouched by
W1:198.12  this one dream. This is the gift the Holy Spirit holds for you from  God your Father. Let today be celebrated both on earth and in your
W1:198.13  face of earth, made quiet in a dreamless sleep. And now the Word of  God alone remains upon it. Only that can be perceived an instant
W1:198.13  you ever thought you made completely vanished from the mind which  God forever knows to be His only Son.
W1:198.14  you see the vision of yourself and then you disappear forever into  God.
W1:198.15  here will not forsake us now. For He would give to us the gift that  God has given us through Him today. Now is it time for your
W1:199.2  never enter in a mind that has attached itself to Love. It rests in  God, and who can be afraid who lives in Innocence and only loves?
W1:199.7  freedom, perfect joy, and hope that finds its full accomplishment in  God.
W1:199.8  thanks for the increase of joy your practice brings even to it. And  God Himself extends His Love and happiness each time you say:
W1:199.9 I am not a body. I am free. I hear the Voice that  God has given me, and it is only this my mind obeys.
W1:200.1 Seek you no further. You will not find peace except the peace of  God. Accept this fact, and save yourself the agony of yet more bitter
W1:200.1  further. There is nothing else for you to find except the peace of  God, unless you seek for misery and pain.
W1:200.7 There is no peace except the peace of  God because He has one Son, who cannot make a world in opposition to
W1:200.7  Yet can he learn to look on it another way and find the peace of  God.
W1:200.8  gently toward the bridge where freedom lies within the peace of  God.
W1:200.9  wander can there be delay and needless wasted time on thorny byways.  God alone is sure, and He will guide our footsteps. He will not
W1:200.9  And that is all there is to what appears to be a world apart from  God where bodies have reality.
W1:200.11 Today we seek no idols. Peace cannot be found in them. The peace of  God is ours, and only this will we accept and want. Peace be to us
W1:200.11  single purpose and companionship. For peace is union if it be of  God. We seek no further. We are close to home and draw still nearer
W1:200.12 There is no peace except the peace of  God, and I am glad and thankful it is so.
W1:R6.1  and to the world from every form of bondage and invite the memory of  God to come again.
W1:R6.4 I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as  God created me.
W1:R6.6  a quickened pace along a shorter path to the serenity and peace of  God. We merely close our eyes and then forget all that we thought we
W1:200.1  but is my brother. I am blessed with oneness with the universe and  God, my Father, One Creator of the whole that is my Self, forever one
W1:200.1  forever one with me. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as  God created me.
W1:202.1  would I choose to stay an instant more where I do not belong, when  God Himself has given me His Voice to call me home? I am not a
W1:202.1  to call me home? I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as  God created me.
W1:203.1 [183] I call upon God's Name and on my own. The Name of  God is my deliverance from every thought of evil and of sin, because
W1:203.1  own as well as His. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as  God created me.
W1:204.1 [184] The Name of  God is my inheritance. God's Name reminds me that I am His Son, not
W1:204.1  unbound by laws which rule the world of sick illusions, free in  God, forever and forever one with Him. I am not a body. I am free.
W1:204.1  one with Him. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as  God created me.
W1:205.1 [185] I want the peace of  God. The peace of God is everything I want. The peace of God is my
W1:205.1 [185] I want the peace of God. The peace of  God is everything I want. The peace of God is my one goal; the aim of
W1:205.1  peace of God. The peace of God is everything I want. The peace of  God is my one goal; the aim of all my living here, the end I seek, my

W1:206.1  of the world depends on me. I am entrusted with the gifts of  God because I am His Son. And I would give His gifts where He
W1:206.1  intended them to be. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as  God created me.
W1:207.1  Love for me. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as  God created me.
W1:208.1 [188] The peace of  God is shining in me now. I will be still and let the earth be still
W1:208.1  along with me. And in that stillness, we will find the peace of  God. It is within my heart, which witnesses to God Himself. I am

W1:208.1  to God Himself. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as  God created me.
W1:209.1 [189] I feel the Love of  God within me now. The Love of God is what created me. The Love of
W1:209.1 [189] I feel the Love of God within me now. The Love of  God is what created me. The Love of God is everything I am. The Love
W1:209.1  God within me now. The Love of God is what created me. The Love of  God is everything I am. The Love of God proclaimed me as His Son. The
W1:209.1  is what created me. The Love of God is everything I am. The Love of  God proclaimed me as His Son. The Love of God within me sets me

W1:209.1  me sets me free. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as  God created me.
W1:210.1 [190] I choose the joy of  God instead of pain. Pain is my own idea. It is not a thought of
W1:210.1  of God instead of pain. Pain is my own idea. It is not a thought of  God, but one I thought apart from Him and from His Will. His Will is
W1:210.1  of what I made. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as  God created me.
W1:211.1 [191] I am the holy Son of  God Himself. In silence and in true humility, I seek God's glory to
W1:211.1  created as my Self. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as  God created me.
W1:212.1 [192] I have a function  God would have me fill. I seek the function that would set me free
W1:212.1  me free from all the vain illusions of the world. Only the function  God has given me can offer freedom. Only this I seek, and only this
W1:212.1  I accept as mine. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as  God created me.
W1:213.1 [193] All things are lessons  God would have me learn. A lesson is a miracle which God offers to
W1:213.1  are lessons God would have me learn. A lesson is a miracle which  God offers to me in place of thoughts I made that hurt me. What I
W1:213.1  and forget my own. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as  God created me.
W1:214.1 [194] I place the future in the hands of  God. The past is gone; the future is not yet. Now am I freed from
W1:214.1  is gone; the future is not yet. Now am I freed from both. For what  God gives can only be for good. And I accept but what He gives as

W1:215.1  me the way to go. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as  God created me.
W1:216.1  will be given me. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as  God created me.

W1:218.1  glory and be glad. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as  God created me.
W1:219.1  forever as His Son. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as  God created me.

W2:I.2  be merely a beginning. For we wait in quiet expectation for our  God and Father. He has promised He will take the final step Himself.
W2:I.2  Nor will we forget our hourly remembrance in between, calling to  God when we have need of Him as we are tempted to forget our goal.
W2:I.3  remaining holy instants which conclude the year that we have given  God. We say some simple words of welcome and expect our Father to
W2:I.8  holy year which we have spent together in the search for truth and  God, Who is its one Creator. We have found the way He chose for us
W2:I.9 We had a wish that  God would fail to have the Son whom He created for Himself. We wanted
W2:I.9  would fail to have the Son whom He created for Himself. We wanted  God to change Himself and be what we would make of Him. And we
W2:I.9  is all undone, and we no longer think illusions true. The memory of  God is shimmering across the wide horizons of our minds. A moment
W2:I.10  final section we will come to understand that we need only call to  God and all temptations disappear. Instead of words, we need but feel
W2:WF.1  lets it go. What then is free to take its place is now the Will of  God.
W2:WF.5  He has forgiven you already, for such is His function given Him by  God. Now must you share His function and forgive whom He has saved,
W2:WF.5  saved, whose sinlessness He sees, and whom He honors as the Son of  God.
W2:221.2 Now do we wait in quiet.  God is here because we wait together. I am sure that He will speak to
W2:222.1  God is with me. He is my Source of life, the life within, the air I
W2:223.1 I was mistaken when I thought I lived apart from  God, a separate entity which moved in isolation, unattached, and
W2:227.2  our glad return to Heaven, which we never really left. The Son of  God this day lays down his dreams. The Son of God this day comes home
W2:227.2  left. The Son of God this day lays down his dreams. The Son of  God this day comes home again, released from sin and clad in
W2:230.1  do I remain. It is not given me to change my Self. How merciful is  God my Father, that when He created me He gave me peace forever. Now
W2:WS.1 Salvation is a promise made by  God that you would find your way to Him at last. It cannot but be
W2:WS.3  And what they hid is now revealed—an altar to the holy Name of  God whereon His Word is written, with the gifts of your forgiveness
W2:WS.3  with the gifts of your forgiveness laid before it and the memory of  God not far behind.
W2:WS.4  there is no sorrow, for it holds a hint of all the glory given us by  God. The grass is pushing through the soil, the trees are budding

W2:240.1  of yourself. Let us not be deceived today. We are the Son of  God. There is no fear in us, for we are each a part of Love Itself.
W2:WIW.2 The world was made as an attack on  God. It symbolizes fear. And what is fear except love's absence? Thus
W2:WIW.2  except love's absence? Thus the world was meant to be a place where  God could enter not and where His Son could be apart from Him. Here
W2:WIW.4  away from truth, it can be redirected. Sounds become the call of  God. And all perception can be given a new purpose by the One Whom
W2:WIW.4  God. And all perception can be given a new purpose by the One Whom  God appointed Savior to the world. Follow His light and see the world
W2:242.1  And He is glad to make no choices for me but the ones that lead to  God. This day I give to Him, for I would not delay my coming home,

W2:244.2  in truth. No storms can come into the hallowed haven of our home. In  God are we secure. For what can come to threaten God Himself or make
W2:244.2  of our home. In God are we secure. For what can come to threaten  God Himself or make afraid what will forever be a part of Him?
W2:245.2  message that we have received. And thus we come to hear the Voice of  God, Who speaks to us as we relate His Word, Whose Love we recognize
W2:246.1 Let me not think that I can find the way to  God if I have hatred in my heart. Let me not try to hurt God's Son
W2:248.1  I disown self-concepts and deceits and lies about the holy Son of  God. Now am I ready to accept him back as God created him, and as he
W2:248.1  lies about the holy Son of God. Now am I ready to accept him back as  God created him, and as he is.
W2:249.1  into the Light that it reflects. And so the journey which the Son of  God began has ended in the Light from Which he came.
W2:250.1 Let me behold the Son of  God today and witness to his glory. Let me not try to obscure the

W2:WIS.4  And yet what sin perceives is but a childish game. The Son of  God may play he has become a body, prey to evil and to guilt, with
W2:WIS.5 How long, oh Son of  God, will you maintain the game of sin? Shall we not put away these
W2:WIS.5  Would you still hold return to Heaven back? How long, oh holy Son of  God, how long?
W2:252.1  burning impulses which move the world but from the boundless Love of  God Himself. How far beyond this world my Self must be, and yet how
W2:252.1  this world my Self must be, and yet how near to me and close to  God!
W2:254.2  They are silent now. And in the stillness, hallowed by His Love,  God speaks to us and tells us of our will, as we have chosen to
W2:255.1  not seem to me that I can choose to have but peace today. And yet my  God assures me that His Son is like Himself. Let me this day have
W2:256.1 The way to  God is through forgiveness here. There is no other way. If sin had
W2:256.1  asleep in heavy clouds of doubt about the holiness of him whom  God created sinless? Here we can but dream. But we can dream we have
W2:256.1  all sin remains impossible, and it is this we choose to dream today.  God is our goal; forgiveness is the means by which our minds return
W2:257.1  unify our thoughts and actions meaningfully and achieve only what  God would have us do today.
W2:258.1  overlook all little, senseless aims and to remember that our goal is  God. His memory is hidden in our minds, obscured but by our pointless
W2:258.1  while the toys and trinkets of the world are sought instead?  God is our only goal, our only Love. We have no aim but to remember
W2:259.1 Sin is the only thought that makes the goal of  God seem unobtainable. What else could blind us to the obvious and
W2:WIB.1 The body is a fence the Son of  God imagines he has built to separate parts of his Self from other
W2:WIB.4  goal of Heaven been exchanged for the pursuit of hell. The Son of  God extends his hand to reach his brother and to help him walk along

W2:270.2  through Him, the holy Son whom God created whole, the holy Son whom  God created one.
W2:WIC.1  Him. He is the Self we share, uniting us with one another and with  God as well. He is the Thought Which still abides within the Mind
W2:WIC.1  in which He was created. He abides unchanged forever in the Mind of  God.
W2:WIC.2 Christ is the link that keeps you one with  God and guarantees that separation is no more than an illusion of
W2:WIC.3 Home of the Holy Spirit and at home in  God alone, does Christ remain at peace within the Heaven of your holy
W2:WIC.4  into truth. He will exchange them for the final dream which  God appointed as the end of dreams. For when forgiveness rests upon
W2:WIC.4  forgiveness rests upon the world and peace has come to every Son of  God, what could remain to keep things separate, for what remains to
W2:WIC.5  or of time, or anything except the holy Self, the Christ Whom  God created as His Son.
W2:272.2  in a dream, we turn aside and ask ourselves if we, the Sons of  God, could be content with dreams when Heaven can be chosen just as
W2:273.1  but tell our minds with certainty, “The stillness of the peace of  God is mine,” and nothing can intrude upon the peace that God Himself
W2:273.1  peace of God is mine,” and nothing can intrude upon the peace that  God Himself has given to His Son.
W2:275.1 Let us today attend the Voice of  God, Which speaks an ancient lesson, no more true today than any
W2:275.1  hear and learn and understand. Join me in hearing. For the Voice of  God tells us of things we cannot understand alone, nor learn apart.
W2:275.1  all things are protected. And in this the healing of the Voice of  God is found.
W2:276.1 What is the Word of  God? “My Son is pure and holy as Myself.” And thus did God become the
W2:276.1  the Word of God? “My Son is pure and holy as Myself.” And thus did  God become the Father of the Son He loves, for thus was he created.
W2:277.2  in any laws idolatry would make to hide the freedom of the Son of  God. He is not bound except by his beliefs. Yet what he is, is far
W2:277.2  Father's Son. And he cannot be bound unless God's Truth can lie and  God can will that He deceive Himself.
W2:279.1  Should I wait in chains which have been severed for release, when  God is offering me freedom now?
W2:280.1 Whom  God created limitless is free. I can invent imprisonment for him, but
W2:280.1  for him, but only in illusions, not in truth. No Thought of  God has left its Father's Mind. No Thought of God is limited at all.
W2:280.1  truth. No Thought of God has left its Father's Mind. No Thought of  God is limited at all. No Thought of God but is forever pure. Can I
W2:280.1  Father's Mind. No Thought of God is limited at all. No Thought of  God but is forever pure. Can I lay limits on the Son of God, whose

W2:282.1  world. This the decision not to be insane and to accept myself as  God Himself, my Father and my Source, created me. This the
W2:282.1  in the joy of life. And this the choice to recognize the Self Whom  God created as the Son He loves and Who remains my one Reality.
W2:283.1 Father, I made an image of myself, and it is this I call the Son of  God. Yet is creation as it always was, for Your creation is
W2:283.1  loves. His holiness remains the light of Heaven and the Love of  God. Is not what is beloved of You secure? Is not the light of Heaven
W2:283.2 Now are we one in shared Identity, with  God our Father as our only Source and everything created part of us.
W2:285.1 Today I wake with joy, expecting but the happy things of  God to come to me. I ask but them to come and realize my invitation
W2:286.2  it to a wholly certain goal. Today we will not doubt the end which  God Himself has promised us. We trust in Him and in our Self, Who

W2:WIRW.5  be Itself. That instant is our goal, for it contains the memory of  God. And as we look upon a world forgiven, it is He Who calls to us
W2:291.1  recognize it is a holiness in which we share; it is the holiness of  God Himself.
W2:294.1 I am a Son of  God. And can I be another thing as well? Did God create the mortal
W2:294.1 I am a Son of God. And can I be another thing as well? Did  God create the mortal and corruptible? What use has God's beloved Son
W2:296.2  to persuade the world through us to seek and find the easy path to  God!
W2:298.1  journeys, mad careers, and artificial values. I accept instead what  God establishes as mine, sure that in that alone I will be saved,
W2:298.2  sanctuary and escape from everything that would obscure my love for  God, my Father, and His holy Son.
W2:299.1 My holiness is far beyond my own ability to understand or know. Yet  God my Father, Who created it, acknowledges my holiness as His. Our
W2:WISC.1 Christ's Second Coming, which is sure as  God, is merely the correction of mistakes and the return of sanity.
W2:WISC.3  in one last summary that will extend beyond itself and reaches up to  God. The Second Coming is the time in which all minds are given to
W2:WISC.3  be returned to Spirit in the name of true creation and the Will of  God.
W2:WISC.4  equality is Christ restored as one Identity, in which all Sons of  God acknowledge that they all are one. And God the Father smiles upon
W2:WISC.4  in which all Sons of God acknowledge that they all are one. And  God the Father smiles upon His Son, His one creation and His only joy.
W2:WISC.5  God's Will and join together in its holy light. Behold, the Son of  God is one in us, and we can reach our Father's Love through him.
W2:306.1  a world of mercy and of care; of loving kindness and the peace of  God.
W2:309.1  Will is to deny my own. To look within is but to find my will as  God created it and as it is. I fear to look within because I think I
W2:309.1  made it real. Yet it has no effects. Within me is the holiness of  God. Within me is the memory of Him.

W2:315.2  the many gifts that come to me today and every day from every Son of  God. My brothers are unlimited in all their gifts to me. Now may I
W2:316.1  enter in where I am truly welcome and at home among the gifts that  God has given me.

W2:319.1  that what one gains totality must lose. And yet it is the Will of  God I learn that what one gains is given unto all.
W2:320.1 The Son of  God is limitless. There are no limits on his strength, his peace, his
W2:WICR.2  shares in creation and must therefore share in power to create. What  God has willed to be forever one will still be one when time is over
W2:WICR.3  illusions, for creation is the truth. Creation is the holy Son of  God, for in creation is His Will complete in every aspect, making

W2:326.1  Its Effect are indistinguishable. Let me know that I am an Effect of  God, and so I have the power to create like You. And as it is in
W2:326.1  will disappear and separate thoughts unite in glory as the Son of  God.
W2:327.1  asked to take salvation on the basis of an unsupported faith. For  God has promised He will hear my call and answer me Himself. Let me
W2:328.1  things we perceive are upside-down until we listen to the Voice of  God. It seems that we will gain autonomy but by our striving to be
W2:329.2  we recognize that we are one. Through it we find our way at last to  God.
W2:330.1  images of pain? Why should we teach them they are powerless when  God holds out His power and His love and bids them take what is
W2:330.1  to Spirit and extends its freedom and its joy, as is the Will of  God united with its own. The Self which God created cannot sin and
W2:330.1  its joy, as is the Will of God united with its own. The Self which  God created cannot sin and therefore cannot suffer. Let us choose
W2:WIE.1  and to end its life in death. It is the will that sees the Will of  God as enemy and takes a form in which It is denied. The ego is the

W2:331.2  holy sights forgiveness shows today that we may find the peace of  God. Amen.
W2:334.1  such meager gifts again today. God's Voice is offering the peace of  God to all who hear and choose to follow Him. This is my choice

W2:336.1  only here is peace of mind restored, for this the dwelling-place of  God Himself.
W2:337.1  this is mine? I must accept Atonement for myself and nothing more.  God has already done all things that need be done. And I must learn I

W2:WIM.3  the silent miracle of love. And each is laid before the Word of  God upon the universal altar to Creator and creation, in the light of
W2:341.2 Let us not then attack our sinlessness. For it contains the Word of  God to us, and in its kind reflection we are saved.
W2:342.2  you home with me. And as we go, the world goes with us on the way to  God.
W2:343.2 The mercy and the peace of  God are free. Salvation has no cost. It is a gift that must be freely
W2:344.2 How near we are to one another, as we go to  God. How near is He to us. How close the ending of the dream of sin
W2:344.2  the ending of the dream of sin and the redemption of the Son of  God.
W2:346.2  the evening comes today, we will remember nothing but the peace of  God. For we will learn today what peace is ours when we forget all
W2:347.2 Listen today. Be very still and hear the gentle Voice for  God assuring you that He has judged you as the Son He loves.
W2:350.1  we forgive becomes a part of us as we perceive ourselves. The Son of  God incorporates all things within himself as You created him. Your

W2:WAI.4  from every thought of sin. Ours are the ears that hear the Voice of  God proclaim the world as sinless. Ours the minds which join together
W2:WAI.5 We are the holy messengers of  God who speak for Him, and carrying His Word to everyone whom He has
W2:WAI.5  came and which we seek to serve. We bring glad tidings to the Son of  God, who thought he suffered. Now is he redeemed. And as he sees the
W2:WAI.5  open before him, he will enter in and disappear into the Heart of  God.
W2:351.1  And if I see him sinful, I proclaim myself a sinner, not a Son of  God, alone and friendless in a fearful world. Yet this perception is
W2:358.1  what I really am alone remember what I really want. You speak for  God, and so You speak for me. And what You give me comes from God
W2:358.1  for God, and so You speak for me. And what You give me comes from  God Himself. Your Voice, my Father, then is mine as well, and all I
W2:359.1  all things. But we have not made sinners of the holy Sons of  God. What You created sinless so abides forever and forever. Such are
W2:FL.2 His is the only way to find the peace that  God has given us. It is His way that everyone must travel in the end,
W2:FL.2  way that everyone must travel in the end, because it is this ending  God Himself appointed. In the dream of time, it seems to be far off.
W2:FL.3  Unto us the aim is given to forgive the world. It is the goal that  God has given us. It is His ending to the dream we seek, and not our
W2:FL.3  For all that we forgive we will not fail to recognize as part of  God Himself. And thus His memory is given back completely and
W2:FL.4  is shared. For it is that remembrance which contains the memory of  God and points the way to Him and to the Heaven of His peace. And

W2:E.3  there is no more need of them. Henceforth, hear but the Voice for  God and for your Self when you retire from the world, to seek Reality

W2:E.5  means as well. To this we say “Amen.” We will be told exactly what  God wills for us each time there is a choice to make. And He will
W2:E.5  for us each time there is a choice to make. And He will speak for  God and for your Self, thus making sure that hell will claim you not

M:4.7 The third stage through which the teachers of  God must go can be called a “period of relinquishment.” If this is

M:4.19  not refer, however, to the self the world speaks of. The teacher of  God does not want anything he cannot give away because he realizes it
M:4.19  pain? But he does want to keep for himself all things that are of  God and therefore for His Son. These are the things that belong to
M:4.20  and wait without anxiety. Patience is natural to the teacher of  God. All he sees is certain outcome, at a time perhaps unknown as
M:4.20  Perhaps it was not understood at the time. Even so, the teacher of  God is willing to reconsider all his past decisions if they are
M:4.21  Faithfulness is the teacher of God's trust in the word of  God to set all things right—not some but all. Generally, his
M:4.22  attributes of God's teachers. It implies acceptance of the word of  God and His definition of His Son. It is to them that faithfulness in
M:4.23  open-mindedness, perhaps the last of the attributes the teacher of  God acquires, is easily understood when its relation to forgiveness
M:4.23  invites Him to come in. As condemnation judges the Son of  God as evil, so open-mindedness permits him to be judged by the Voice
M:4.23  evil, so open-mindedness permits him to be judged by the Voice for  God on His behalf. As the projection of guilt upon him would send him
M:4.25  appear in this context. They would be most inappropriate here. What  God has given is so far beyond our curriculum that learning but
M:4.25  that is “true learning” in the world. It is given to the teachers of  God to bring the glad tidings of complete forgiveness to the world.
M:5.2  conceived in madness, for placing God's Son on his Father's throne.  God is seen as outside, fierce and powerful, eager to keep all power
M:5.3  represents the ultimate defiance in a direct form which the Son of  God is forced to recognize. It stands for all that he would hide from
M:5.3  himself, his weakness is his strength. Now has he given himself what  God would give to him and thus entirely usurped the throne of his
M:5.7  nor limit. The final outcome of this lesson is the remembrance of  God. What do guilt and sickness, pain, disaster, and all suffering
M:5.8  must change his mind in order to be healed, what does the teacher of  God do? Can he change the patient's mind for him? Certainly not. For
M:5.8  except to rejoice with them, for they have become teachers of  God with him. He has, however, a more specific function for those who
M:5.9  choice which they had forgotten. The simple presence of a teacher of  God is a reminder. His thoughts ask for the right to question what
M:5.9  benediction, not to heal the sick but to remind them of the remedy  God has already given them. It is not their hands that heal. It is
M:5.9  their hands that heal. It is not their voice that speaks the Word of  God. They merely give what has been given them. Very gently they call
M:5.9  call to their brothers to turn away from death. Behold, you Son of  God, what life can offer you. Would you choose sickness in place of
M:5.10 Not once do the advanced teachers of  God consider the forms of sickness in which their brother believes.
M:5.10  And they remind him that he has not made himself and must remain as  God created him. They recognize illusions can have no effect. The
M:6.1  Truth demonstrates illusions have no value. The teacher of  God has seen the correction of his errors in the mind of the patient,
M:6.2  given, it will be received. And what is time before the gifts of  God? We have referred many times in the text to the storehouse of
M:6.2  gifts. Not one is lost, for they can but increase. No teacher of  God should feel disappointed if he has offered healing and it does
M:6.4  missing, it would not be full. Yet is its fullness guaranteed by  God. What concern, then, can a teacher of God have about what becomes
M:6.4  its fullness guaranteed by God. What concern, then, can a teacher of  God have about what becomes of his gifts? Given by God to God, who in
M:6.4  can a teacher of God have about what becomes of his gifts? Given by  God to God, who in this holy exchange can receive less than
M:6.4  teacher of God have about what becomes of his gifts? Given by God to  God, who in this holy exchange can receive less than everything?
M:7.1  have already said it is, what is there to repeat? For a teacher of  God to remain concerned about the result of healing is to limit the
M:7.1  result of healing is to limit the healing. It is now the teacher of  God himself whose mind needs to be healed. And it is this he must
M:7.2 Whenever a teacher of  God has tried to be a channel for healing, he has succeeded. Should
M:7.2  the Holy Spirit so accepted it and so used it. Now the teacher of  God has only one course to follow. He must use his reason to tell
M:7.3 It is in this that the teacher of  God must trust. This is what is really meant by the statement that
M:7.3  worker is to accept the Atonement for himself. The teacher of  God is a miracle worker because he gives the gifts he has received.
M:7.3  received it. Thus is his doubt corrected. He thought the gifts of  God could be withdrawn. That was a mistake, but hardly one to stay
M:7.3  was a mistake, but hardly one to stay with. And so the teacher of  God can only recognize it for what it is and let it be corrected for
M:9.2 As the teacher of  God advances in his training, he learns one lesson with increasing
M:9.2  guide for action. This becomes easier and easier as the teacher of  God learns to give up his own judgment. The giving up of judgment,
M:10.2  anything. No more does “bad.” It is necessary for the teacher of  God to realize not that he should not judge, but that he cannot. In
M:10.5  it. And it was all illusion. Nothing more. Now can the teacher of  God rise up unburdened and walk lightly on. Yet it is not only this
M:10.6  But it is difficult indeed to try to keep it. The teacher of  God lays it down happily the instant he recognizes its cost. All of
M:10.6  the effects of his mistaken choice, have fallen from him. Teacher of  God, this step will bring you peace. Can it be difficult to want but
M:11.1  must ask. Certainly peace seems to be impossible. Yet the Word of  God promises other things that seem impossible, as well as this. His
M:11.1  rebirth is man's inheritance. The world you see cannot be the world  God loves, and yet His Word assures us that He loves the world. God's
M:11.2  This time, ask yourself whether your judgment or the Word of  God is more likely to be true. For they say different things about
M:11.2  things so opposite that it is pointless to try to reconcile them.  God offers the world salvation; your judgment would condemn it. God
M:11.2  God offers the world salvation; your judgment would condemn it.  God says there is no death; your judgment sees but death as the
M:11.3  and devoid of sense, yet out of which no way seems possible— God has sent His Judgment to answer yours. Gently His Judgment
M:11.3  it is not possible and can never be possible. But in the Judgment of  God, what is reflected here is only peace.
M:11.4  on it in joyous answer. Peace now belongs here, because a thought of  God has entered. What else but a thought of God turns hell to Heaven
M:11.4  because a thought of God has entered. What else but a thought of  God turns hell to Heaven merely by being what it is? The earth bows
M:12.1  One, sanctified and redeemed, becomes the Self Who is the Son of  God. He who was always wholly spirit now no longer sees Himself as a
M:12.1  Thoughts to still deluded minds. He is forever One, because He is as  God created Him. He has accepted Christ, and He is saved.
M:12.2 Thus does the son of man become the Son of  God. It is not really a change; it is a change of mind. Nothing
M:12.2  alters, but everything internal now reflects only the Love of  God. God can no longer be feared, for the mind sees no cause for
M:12.2  alters, but everything internal now reflects only the Love of God.  God can no longer be feared, for the mind sees no cause for
M:12.2  need. Yet being joined in one purpose, and one they share with  God, how could they be separate from each other? What does it matter
M:12.2  in many forms? Their minds are one; their joining is complete. And  God works through them now as One, for that is what they are.
M:12.4  this understanding will come the recognition in this new teacher of  God of what the body's purpose really is; the only use there really
M:12.4  unity come in, and what is one is recognized as one. The teachers of  God appear to share the illusion of separation, but because of what
M:12.5  and being weak, it suffers and it dies. Use it to bring the Word of  God to those who have it not, and the body becomes holy. Because it
M:12.5  which are responsible for the body's condition. Yet the teacher of  God does not make this decision alone. To do that would be to give
M:13.6  always means the giving up of what you want. And what, oh teacher of  God, is it that you want? You have been called by God, and you have
M:13.6  oh teacher of God, is it that you want? You have been called by  God, and you have answered. Would you now sacrifice that Call? Few
M:13.7  up Heaven partially. You cannot be a little bit in hell. The Word of  God has no exceptions. It is this that makes it holy and beyond the
M:13.7  it holy and beyond the world. It is its holiness that points to  God. It is its holiness that makes you safe. It is denied if you
M:13.7  you attack any brother for anything. For it is here the split with  God occurs. A split that is impossible. A split that cannot happen.
M:13.8 Teacher of  God, do not forget the meaning of sacrifice, and remember what each
M:13.8  what each decision you make must mean in terms of cost. Decide for  God, and everything is given you at no cost at all. Decide against
M:13.8  The world contains it not, but learn this course and it is yours.  God holds out His Word to you, for He has need of teachers. What
M:14.3  The illusion of orders of difficulty is an obstacle the teacher of  God must learn to pass by and leave behind. One sin perfectly
M:14.3  by and leave behind. One sin perfectly forgiven by one teacher of  God can make salvation complete. Can you understand this? No; it is
M:14.4  beyond its tiny reach. What, then, is the function of the teacher of  God in this concluding lesson? He need merely learn how to approach
M:14.5  is reflected. And now sit down in true humility and realize that all  God would have you do, you can do. Do not be arrogant and say you
M:15.1  across the world that everyone may hear this judgment of the Son of  God:
M:15.2  are you, eternal, free, and whole, at peace forever in the Heart of  God. Where is the world and where is sorrow now?
M:15.3 Is this your judgment on yourself, teacher of  God? Do you believe that this is wholly true? No, not yet, not yet.
M:15.3  this Final Judgment. What is your judgment on the world, teacher of  God? Have you yet learned to stand aside and hear the Voice of
M:15.4  judged, and judged in fairness and in honesty. There is no deceit in  God. His promises are sure. Only remember that. His promises have
M:16.1 To the advanced teacher of  God, this question is meaningless. There is no program, for the
M:16.1  and one which can be met that very day. For the advanced teacher of  God, then, this question is superfluous. It has been asked and
M:16.2  on their own part. What must they do to learn to give the day to  God? There are some general rules which do apply, although each one
M:16.3  How much time should be so spent? This must depend on the teacher of  God himself. He cannot claim that title until he has gone through the
M:16.4 This course is always practical. It may be that the teacher of  God is not in a situation which fosters quiet thought as he awakes.
M:16.4  this is so, let him but remember that he chooses to spend time with  God as soon as possible, and let him do so. Duration is not the major
M:16.4  hour with closed eyes and accomplish nothing. One can as easily give  God only an instant, and in that instant join with Him completely.
M:16.5  however, just before going to sleep is a desirable time to devote to  God. It sets your mind into a pattern of rest and orients you away
M:16.5  than a moment will do—in which you close your eyes and think of  God.
M:16.7 How simply and how easily does the day slip by for the teacher of  God who has accepted His protection! All that he did before in the
M:16.7  at different times and different places, because they are all one to  God. This is his safety. And he has no need for more than this.
M:16.8 Yet there will be temptations along the way the teacher of  God has yet to travel, and he has need of reminding himself
M:16.9  When all magic is recognized as merely nothing, the teacher of  God has reached the most advanced state. All intermediate lessons
M:16.10 There is no substitute for the Will of  God. In simple statement, it is to this fact that the teacher of God
M:16.10  of God. In simple statement, it is to this fact that the teacher of  God devotes his day. Each substitute he may accept as real can but
M:17.1  to deal with magic thus becomes a major lesson for the teacher of  God to master. His first responsibility in this is not to attack it.
M:17.2  for himself. And in this gift is his judgment upon the holy Son of  God.
M:17.5  magic thought, by its mere presence, acknowledges a separation from  God. It states in the clearest form possible that the mind which
M:17.5  it believes it has a separate will that can oppose the Will of  God and succeed. That this can hardly be a fact is obvious. Yet that
M:17.5  so. And herein lies the birthplace of guilt. Who usurps the place of  God and takes it for himself now has a deadly “enemy.” And he must
M:17.7  says clearly to your frightened mind, “You have usurped the place of  God. Think not He has forgotten.” Here we have the fear of God most
M:17.7  place of God. Think not He has forgotten.” Here we have the fear of  God most starkly represented. For in that thought has guilt already
M:17.7  in that thought has guilt already raised madness to the throne of  God Himself. And now there is no hope. Except to kill. Here is
M:17.8 Into this hopeless situation  God sends His teachers. They bring the light of hope from God
M:17.8  situation God sends His teachers. They bring the light of hope from  God Himself. There is a way in which escape is possible. It can be
M:17.9  Can nothing give rise to anger? Hardly so. Remember then, teacher of  God, that anger recognizes a reality that is not there, yet is the
M:17.9  you now. There is no death. This sword does not exist. The fear of  God is causeless. But His love is Cause of everything beyond all fear
M:18.1  only this is true correction—cannot be made until the teacher of  God has ceased to confuse interpretation with fact or illusion with
M:18.2  them, the Holy Spirit can now speak of the reality of the Son of  God. Now He can remind the world of sinlessness, the one unchanged,
M:18.2  sinlessness, the one unchanged, unchangeable condition of all that  God created. Now He can speak the Word of God to listening ears and
M:18.2  condition of all that God created. Now He can speak the Word of  God to listening ears and bring Christ's vision to the eyes that see.
M:18.4  a sin, nor has reality been taken from its throne by your mistakes.  God reigns forever, and His laws alone prevail upon you and upon the
M:18.5 In order to heal, it thus becomes essential for the teacher of  God to let all his own mistakes be corrected. If he senses even the
M:18.5  undoing of errors. When this has been accomplished, the teacher of  God becomes a miracle worker by definition. His sins have been
M:19.4  entirely on love—you have projected your injustice, attributing to  God the lens of warped perception through which you look. Now it
M:19.5  is now restored. What had been lost has now been found. The peace of  God descends on all the world and we can see. And we can see!
M:20.2 First, how can the peace of  God be recognized? God's peace is recognized at first by just one
M:20.3  forgiveness is the necessary condition for finding the peace of  God. More than this, given forgiveness there must be peace. For what
M:20.4 How is the peace of  God retained once it is found? Returning anger, in whatever form,
M:20.5  not life in which the problem lies. Life has no opposite, for it is  God. Life and death seem to be opposites, because you have decided
M:20.5  Forgive the world, and you will understand that everything which  God created cannot have an end, and nothing He did not create is
M:20.6 What is the peace of  God? No more than this—the simple understanding that His Will is
M:20.6  is no conflict, because His Will is yours. Now is the mighty Will of  God Himself His gift to you. He does not seek to keep it for Himself.
M:20.6  seek to keep your tiny, frail imaginings apart from Him? The Will of  God is one and all there is. This is your heritage. The universe
M:21.1  prayer are contradictory; sometimes they agree. It does not matter.  God does not understand words, for they were made by separated minds
M:21.3  him, as he requests. Herein lie hell and Heaven. The sleeping Son of  God has but this power left to him. It is enough. His words do not
M:21.3  left to him. It is enough. His words do not matter. Only the Word of  God has any meaning, because it symbolizes that which has no human
M:21.4 Is the teacher of  God then to avoid the use of words in his teaching? No, indeed. There
M:21.4  words, being as yet unable to hear in silence. The teacher of  God must, however, learn to use words in a new way. Gradually, he
M:21.4  lesson “I will step back and let Him lead the way.” The teacher of  God accepts the words which are offered him and gives as he receives.
M:22.1  Accept Atonement, and you are healed. Atonement is the Word of  God. Accept His Word, and what remains to make sickness possible?
M:22.1  miracle has been accomplished. To forgive is to heal. The teacher of  God has taken accepting the Atonement for himself as his only
M:22.2 The progress of the teacher of  God may be slow or rapid, depending on whether he recognizes the
M:22.2  all situations. This, however, is comparatively rare. The teacher of  God may have accepted the function God has given him long before he
M:22.2  rare. The teacher of God may have accepted the function  God has given him long before he has learned all that his acceptance
M:22.2  What more was asked of him? And having done what was required, would  God withhold the rest?
M:22.3 That forgiveness is healing needs to be understood if the teacher of  God is to make progress. The idea that a body can be sick is a
M:22.3  can order a mind to do as it sees fit would merely take the place of  God and prove salvation is impossible. What then is left to heal? The
M:22.4  of all others as well. Nor is it at this level that the teacher of  God calls forth the miracle of healing. He overlooks the mind and
M:22.4  recognition has no special reference. It is true of all things that  God created. In it are all illusions healed.
M:22.5 When a teacher of  God fails to heal, it is because he has forgotten Who he is.
M:22.5  and distorted perception does not heal. Step back now, teacher of  God. You have been wrong. Lead not the way, for you have lost it.
M:22.6  of all forms of sickness. Not to believe this is to be unfair to  God and thus unfaithful to Him. A sick person perceives himself as
M:22.6  unfaithful to Him. A sick person perceives himself as separate from  God. Would you see him as separate from you? It is your task to heal
M:22.7 Who can limit the power of  God Himself? Who then can say who can be healed of what and what must
M:22.7  he receive Atonement, for he withdraws his judgment from the Son of  God, accepting him as God created him. No longer does he stand apart
M:22.7  for he withdraws his judgment from the Son of God, accepting him as  God created him. No longer does he stand apart from God, determining
M:22.7  accepting him as God created him. No longer does he stand apart from  God, determining where healing should be given and where it should be
M:22.7  should be given and where it should be withheld. Now can he say with  God, “This is my beloved Son, created perfect and forever so.”
M:23.2  to others, but never to this one. He has become the risen Son of  God. He has overcome death, because he has accepted life. He has
M:23.2  death, because he has accepted life. He has recognized himself as  God created him, and in so doing he has recognized all living things
M:23.2  him. There is now no limit on his power, because it is the Power of  God. So has his name become the name of God, for he no longer sees
M:23.2  because it is the Power of God. So has his name become the name of  God, for he no longer sees himself as separate from Him.
M:23.3  mean to you? It means that in remembering Jesus, you are remembering  God. The whole relationship of the Son to the Father lies in him. His
M:23.3  honestly whether it is likely that he will fail to keep them. Can  God fail His Son? And can one who is one with God be unlike Him? Who
M:23.3  fail to keep them. Can God fail His Son? And can one who is one with  God be unlike Him? Who transcends the body has transcended
M:23.4  the gods you pray to. It becomes the shining symbol for the Word of  God, so close to what it stands for that the little space between the
M:23.4  mind. Remembering His name is to give thanks for all the gifts that  God has given you. And gratitude to God becomes the way in which He
M:23.4  thanks for all the gifts that God has given you. And gratitude to  God becomes the way in which He is remembered, for love cannot be far
M:23.4  for love cannot be far behind a grateful heart and thankful mind.  God enters easily, for these are the true conditions for your coming
M:23.6  laid on us. No one who has become a true and dedicated teacher of  God forgets his brothers. Yet what he can offer them is limited by
M:23.7  tongues and appeal to different symbols? Certainly there are. Would  God leave anyone without a very present help in time of trouble? A
M:24.3  be helpful to take any definite stand on reincarnation. A teacher of  God should be as helpful to those who believe in it as to those who
M:24.4  then they are likely to be merely controversial. The teacher of  God is therefore wise to step away from all such questions, for he
M:24.5 Does this mean that the teacher of  God should not believe in reincarnation himself or discuss it with
M:25.3  past, unusual attunement with the “unseen,” or special favors from  God. God gives no special favors, and no one has any powers that are
M:25.3  unusual attunement with the “unseen,” or special favors from God.  God gives no special favors, and no one has any powers that are not
M:26.1  God indeed can be reached directly, for there is no distance between
M:26.1  them. Alone they are nothing. But in their joining is the Power of  God.
M:26.2 There are those who have reached  God directly, retaining no trace of worldly limits and remembering
M:26.2  And meanwhile they give all their gifts to the teachers of  God who look to them for help, asking all things in their name and in
M:26.3 Sometimes a teacher of  God may have a brief experience of direct union with God. In this
M:26.3  a teacher of God may have a brief experience of direct union with  God. In this world, it is almost impossible that this endure. It can,
M:26.3  happen, so be it as well. All worldly states must be illusory. If  God were reached directly in sustained awareness, the body would not
M:26.4  not, then, be too concerned with goals for which you are not ready.  God takes you where you are and welcomes you. What more could you
M:27.1  a certain way upon a certain path—all this is taken as the Will of  God. And no one asks if a benign Creator could will this.
M:27.2 In this perception of the universe as  God created it, it would not be possible to think of Him as loving.
M:27.2  today. Or if he waits, yet is the ending certain. Who loves such a  god knows not of love, because he has denied that life is real. Death
M:27.3 Death is the symbol of the fear of  God. His love is blotted out in the idea, which holds it from
M:27.3  The grimness of the symbol is enough to show it cannot co-exist with  God. It holds an image of the Son of God in which he is “laid to
M:27.3  to show it cannot co-exist with God. It holds an image of the Son of  God in which he is “laid to rest” in devastation's arms, where worms
M:27.3  things live because of death. Devouring is nature's “law of life.”  God is insane, and fear alone is real.
M:27.4  that may go on apart from what will die does not proclaim a loving  God nor re-establish any grounds for trust. If death is real for
M:27.4  is denied. No compromise in this is possible. There is either a  god of fear or One of Love. The world attempts a thousand compromises
M:27.4  acceptable to God's teachers because not one could be acceptable to  God. He did not make death, because He did not make fear. Both are
M:27.5  is firmly rooted in the belief that God's Son is a body. And if  God created bodies, death would indeed be real. But God would not be
M:27.5  a body. And if God created bodies, death would indeed be real. But  God would not be loving. There is no point at which the contrast
M:27.5  illusions becomes more sharply evident. Death is indeed the death of  God if He is Love. And now His own creation must stand in fear of
M:27.6  What can be born of death and still have life? But what is born of  God and still can die? The inconsistencies, the compromises, and the
M:27.6  to think love real are mindless magic, ineffectual and meaningless.  God is, and in Him all created things must be eternal. Do you not see
M:27.7 Teacher of  God, your one assignment could be stated thus: accept no compromise
M:27.7  the end of death? Nothing but this: the realization that the Son of  God is guiltless now and forever. Nothing but this. But do not let
M:28.1  the Holy Spirit's final dream. It is the recognition of the gifts of  God. It is the dream in which the body functions perfectly, having no
M:28.1  it is consummated and surpassed with this. It is the invitation to  God to take His final step. It is the relinquishment of all other
M:28.2  but gladly welcomed. Idols have disappeared, and the remembrance of  God shines unimpeded across the world. Christ's face is seen in every
M:28.3  reversal is accomplished. Nothing is left to contradict the Word of  God. There is no opposition to the truth. And now the truth can come
M:28.4  of everlasting things is now at hand. There is no death. The Son of  God is free. And in his freedom is the end of fear. No hidden places
M:28.5  set us free indeed, and we accept His holiness as ours, as it is. As  God created us, so will we be forever and forever, and we wish for
M:28.6  in His Final Judgment is restored the truth about the holy Son of  God. He is redeemed, for he has heard God's Word and understood its
M:28.6  with him, by his side as he prepares with them to meet his  God.
M:29.2  should attempt to answer these questions alone. Surely no teacher of  God has come this far without realizing that. The curriculum is
M:29.4  is to gain all power. And yet it is but a seeming paradox. As  God created you, you have all power. The image you made of yourself
M:29.5  not have is deceiving himself. Yet to accept the power given him by  God is but to acknowledge his Creator and accept His gifts. And His
M:29.5  given you when you need it. Prepare for this each morning, remember  God when you can throughout the day, ask the Holy Spirit's help when
M:29.6  remains attractive to you, He will respond with evil? Hardly! For  God has given Him the power to translate your prayers of the heart
M:29.6  an attack is a call for help. And He responds with help accordingly.  God would be cruel if He let your words replace His Own. A loving
M:29.7  all things are given you. Not in the future but immediately—now.  God does not wait, for waiting implies time and He is timeless.
M:29.7  and your fear of harm, your dreams of danger and selected “wrongs.”  God knows but His Son, and as he was created, so he is. In confidence
M:29.8 And now in all your doings be you blessed.  God turns to you for help to save the world. Teacher of God, His
M:29.8  you blessed. God turns to you for help to save the world. Teacher of  God, His thanks He offers you, and all the world stands silent in
M:29.8  friendless. I give thanks for you and join your efforts on behalf of  God, knowing they are on my behalf as well and for all those who walk
M:29.8  knowing they are on my behalf as well and for all those who walk to  God with me.

C:2.11  you have made of it. The Bible instructs you to be compassionate as  God is compassionate. You have defined it unlike the compassion of

C:2.11  and yet you could no more end misery by making it real than could  God. There is no magic here of turning misery into delight and pain
C:2.12 To be compassionate as  God is compassionate is to see as God sees. Again, I stress to you,
C:2.12 To be compassionate as God is compassionate is to see as  God sees. Again, I stress to you, this is not about looking upon

C:2.13  sense than it did before. In this scenario a benevolent and loving  God who has extended His being into the creation of the universe has
C:2.15  in you who knows the way. Christ is within you and you rest within  God. I vowed to never leave you and to never leave you comfortless.
C:3.2  It is you. Imagine the ocean or the cheetah, the sun or the moon or  God Himself, attempting to learn what they are. They are the same as
C:3.4 You are not form, nor is your real world. You seek the face of  God in form as you seek for love in form. Both love and God are
C:3.4  the face of God in form as you seek for love in form. Both love and  God are there, but they are not the form that your body's eyes see.
C:3.4  those you see and those you only can imagine. To seek the “face” of  God, even in the form of Christ, is to seek for what is forever
C:3.6  will find the Christ who abides in you. In Jesus Christ, the Son of  God became the son of man. He walked the world with a face much like

C:4.5  linger when doubt is gone. Nothing stands between the child of  God and the child's own Source. There remain no clouds to block the
C:4.6 Child of  God, you are alien here but need not be alien to your Self. In your
C:4.9 Love is all that follows the law of  God in your world. All else assumes that what one has is denied
C:4.10  and no winners under God's law. Not one is given more than another.  God cannot love you more than your neighbor, nor can you earn more of

C:5.22  God is based on this. You think you have chosen to be separate from  God so that you can make it on your own, and while you long to return
C:5.22  so that you can make it on your own, and while you long to return to  God and the heaven that is your home, you do not want to admit that
C:5.22  your efforts are futile. You cling to effort as if it is the way to  God, not wanting to believe all effort is in vain or that a simple
C:5.26  Give up what you want? This is surely what you have expected  God to ask of you and what you have spent your lifetime guarding

C:5.30  God is known to you within relationships, as this is all that is real
C:5.30  known to you within relationships, as this is all that is real here.  God cannot be seen in illusion nor known to those who fear him. All

C:6.15  golden calves did so because they knew of no other choice. A  god of love was as foreign a concept to them as is a life of peace to
C:6.19  still be what it is: home to God's beloved son and dwelling place of  God Himself? It is because God is not separate from anything that you
C:6.19  God's beloved son and dwelling place of God Himself? It is because  God is not separate from anything that you cannot be. It is because
C:6.19  God is not separate from anything that you cannot be. It is because  God is not separate from anything that heaven is where you are. It is
C:6.19  separate from anything that heaven is where you are. It is because  God is love that all your relationships are holy, and from them you

C:9.46  in which you think you have been allowed to hurt yourself. How could  God allow all this suffering, you ask? Why does He tempt you with
C:9.46  such destructive forces? Forces beyond your control? Why did not  God create a world benign and unable to harm you?
C:9.47 Such is the world that  God did create: A world so lovely and so peaceful that when you see

C:10.12  about what you believe. The convenient thing about your belief in  God, in me, in heaven and in an afterlife is that you do not think

C:10.13  sisters, right now, today. To believe in God without understanding  God is one thing. To believe in your union with your neighbor without

C:10.15  the earth I was a body, or do you believe that I was the Son of  God before I was born into human form, during the time I existed in
C:10.17  is always involved before the fact. Nothing happens to the Son of  God by accident. This observation will help to put the responsibility

C:11.8  from God, the one thing that allows you to be other than what  God would have you be. It is your “God given” right of independence,
C:11.9 To think you must protect anything from  God is insane, and you know that this is so. But because you view
C:11.9  that this is so. But because you view free will as all you have that  God cannot take away from you, you have not yet given up its

C:11.9  to Him for some things and blame Him for others. Yes, perhaps this  God you think you know has given you everything, but He can also take
C:11.9  for a life of evil. He might accept you back, but He might not. A  God such as this would seem to have little faith in you and to

C:11.10  to make your own decisions, and the power to flaunt them before  God, is all that makes your little separated self feel powerful at

C:11.14  God will never wrestle your free will from you, or fight battles to
C:12.4  yourself. Yet you must understand that nothing that is not part of  God is worthy of joining, nor can join with you. What you have sought
C:12.12  creation's paradise still exists, but nowhere can you find the being  God created in His image.
C:12.23  mean to those who did not believe in separation? Do you believe that  God believes in separation? He knows it not, and because He knows it
C:12.24  benevolent and kind, or just another name for love, but such it is.  God is but creation's starting point, the creator of creation and yet

C:14.6  such as this and still believe in it, then you must believe in a  god who is insane. You—who pride yourself on reason and
C:14.7 You who have made a  god of reason and of intellect, think carefully now of what your

C:26.24  of holiness, an integral place in the pattern that is oneness with  God. It is a place you have never left but that you long for,
C:26.25  you feel deprived of creating. As a being birthed by a thought of  God, you grew simultaneously with God's thought. You knew your place
C:26.27  my story, my pattern, the idea of me that came from the thought of  God. In doing so, I restored unity, oneness with God. I ushered in
C:26.27  from the thought of God. In doing so, I restored unity, oneness with  God. I ushered in the new way that you are now longing to adopt. I
C:27.8  to know your Self through relationship, you can only come to know  God through relationship. Christ is the holy relationship that exists
C:27.8  Christ is the holy relationship that exists between all and  God, providing the bridge that spans the very concept of between and
C:27.9 The thought of  God by which you were created is synonymous with the Christ in you.
C:27.10  or perceive your true identity as relationship itself? And what of  God? Can you unlearn all concepts and free your mind to accept all
C:27.10  lies in relationship, can you be other than relationship itself? Can  God? Can you imagine relationship rather than singular objects and
C:27.10  objects and bodies, as all that exists, and thus who you are and who  God is? Is it such a huge leap to go from saying you only exist in
C:27.21  whether or not you trust. Do you trust these words? Do you trust in  God? Can you trust in your Self?
C:29.3  have no notion, as did people of the past, of being of service to  God. This is a symptom of the reign of the ego and its ability to
C:29.3  your notion of yourself, and to minimize it. To be of service to  God is not to be a slave to God but to attend to God. To give God
C:29.3  and to minimize it. To be of service to God is not to be a slave to  God but to attend to God. To give God your attention and your care.
C:29.3  To be of service to God is not to be a slave to God but to attend to  God. To give God your attention and your care. You who would cry, God
C:29.3  to God is not to be a slave to God but to attend to God. To give  God your attention and your care. You who would cry, God make use of
C:29.3  to God. To give God your attention and your care. You who would cry,  God make use of me, only need to give to God your devotion and your
C:29.3  care. You who would cry, God make use of me, only need to give to  God your devotion and your willingness to serve instead of use.
C:29.5  your full power and your ability to be of quite literal service to  God and your brothers and sisters.
C:29.6 If  God were to speak to you Himself and tell you of what means your
C:29.6  would be to Him, He would but tell you this: My child, return to me.  God has no Will apart from yours. Your return to unity is all God
C:29.6  to me. God has no Will apart from yours. Your return to unity is all  God seeks for you, for Himself, and for all His children. The return
C:29.9  with the colors of life. Life, not death, assures your approach.  God Himself will guide your entry.
C:29.10  as your Father's work is his service to you. As you cannot imagine  God toiling, so you should cease to imagine your Self doing thus.
C:29.15 Life is service to  God. God is service to life. You are God in life. Thus you are both
C:29.15 Life is service to God.  God is service to life. You are God in life. Thus you are both life
C:29.15 Life is service to God. God is service to life. You are  God in life. Thus you are both life and service to life, both God and

C:29.15  same: to live and to serve life, to be of God and be of service to  God. To be served and to serve. To be provided for and to provide. To

C:29.25  come to understand the reciprocal nature of giftedness? That what  God has given only needs to be received? That what you have received
C:29.25  you have received only needs to be given? The indivisibleness of  God is simply this: an unbroken chain of giving and receiving. Thus
C:30.7  identity of the Self no longer lives in a dualistic position with  God, but in a monistic state with Him. The difference is in realizing
C:30.10 All relationship is relationship with  God Who Is Love.
C:30.11  existence because you have made it ruler by abandoning the laws of  God.
C:30.12 The laws of  God are laws of Love. Within the laws of love there is no loss, but
C:30.13  world. Without unity we would not be. Without our Source, which is  God, we would not be.
C:30.14  do not change, and thus the laws of man have not usurped the laws of  God. It is only in your perception that the laws of man take
C:30.14  perception that the laws of man take precedence over the laws of  God. Since perception arises from the mind, we must now discuss the
C:31.9  this point, yet you allow yourself to resist the whole idea of  God because you believe that what is one cannot also be many.
C:31.10 Give up this notion of losing your Self to  God, and you will be done for all time with resisting God. Only in
C:31.10  your Self to God, and you will be done for all time with resisting  God. Only in God can you find your Self. This is known to you, and is
C:31.10  God, and you will be done for all time with resisting God. Only in  God can you find your Self. This is known to you, and is the reason
C:31.10  Self. This is known to you, and is the reason for man's quest for  God throughout all time. Man may think he looks to God for answers,
C:31.10  man's quest for God throughout all time. Man may think he looks to  God for answers, for release from pain, for reward, or for an
C:31.10  pain, for reward, or for an afterlife. But man has always looked to  God for his own Self. Not looking to God to find your Self would be
C:31.10  But man has always looked to God for his own Self. Not looking to  God to find your Self would be akin to searching everywhere but the
C:31.28 Just as you look to  God for your Self, knowing not what it is you seek, so too do you
C:32.6  end all need of miracles, the only accomplishment of the only Son of  God. For what your heart has shared with your mind is shared with all
T1:1.10  is what it is to create, for this is what it is like to think as  God thinks.” Where once you recognized only illusion and called it
T1:2.4  the answer of the Created to the Creator, the answer of the Self to  God.
T1:2.10  higher order that will reveal its laws to you. These are the laws of  God or the laws of love.
T1:2.11 The laws of  God or the laws of love can be summarized by the simple statement of
T1:2.14 The sunset is a gift of  God. It is what it is. This is the first part of this example.
T1:2.21  To experience what is and to acknowledge what is as being a gift of  God is to be present as a divine being having a human experience. No
T1:3.17  stems from your belief that you are “only” human. You are not  God. You are not a holy person. Thus miracles should not flow through
T1:3.20 Fourth, you might balk at the suggestion that  God would grant miracles on such a whim, such a fanciful idea as that
T1:3.20  Even were you to possess such power, surely it is a power that is of  God and needs not you for its accomplishment. Better not to mess with
T1:4.4  of the Creator. Recall the sunset. Are you any less the glory of  God than the sun? This is a call to be as aware of your Self as you
T1:4.9 Your responsibilities shift completely under the laws of  God. Your thoughts are released from their concentration on what
T1:4.11  sprang from the ego-mind that would usurp the power of  God. What kind of gift arrives with a demand for the receiver to be
T1:4.14  Is this not the kind of thinking that has caused you to blame  God for what you have labeled “bad” as well as to praise God for what
T1:4.14  to blame God for what you have labeled “bad” as well as to praise  God for what you have labeled “good”? Would not this kind of a
T1:4.24 Revelation is direct communication with  God in the sense that it is direct communication from a Self you have
T1:4.26  expand upon this thought, for doubt about your Self is doubt about  God. While God is nothing but the Source of Love, you have, in your
T1:4.26  this thought, for doubt about your Self is doubt about God. While  God is nothing but the Source of Love, you have, in your doubt, made
T1:4.26  is nothing but the Source of Love, you have, in your doubt, made of  God the source of fear. Pause a moment here and let the enormity of
T1:4.27  of fear. A Course in Miracles told you that awe is the providence of  God and not due miracles or any other thing or being. I bring up this
T1:4.27  as human being. From time immemorial, fear has been associated with  God. This was the thinking I came to reverse. While I succeeded in
T1:4.27  was the thinking I came to reverse. While I succeeded in revealing a  God of love, this revelation has not been reconciled with your
T1:5.1 Why, when a  God of Love was revealed so long ago and in so many times and in so
T1:5.1  forms since then that they remain forever countless, has fear of  God remained? The only answer possible is because fear of the Self
T1:5.5 This fear of all and nothingness is fear of  God, fear of Life, fear of Creation, fear of Self. For there is only
T1:5.14  Wholeheartedness will aid you in reconciling the laws of  God with the laws of man. Through mindfulness you will remember who
T1:6.4  It is your union with your Self. Union with your Self is union with  God. Thus your concentration must not stray back to old concepts of
T1:6.4  must not stray back to old concepts of prayer or of reaching  God through the intercession of prayer as if God were separate from
T1:6.4  prayer or of reaching God through the intercession of prayer as if  God were separate from you and accessible only through a specific
T1:6.5 To use prayer only as a means of reaching out to a  god seen as separate is to attempt to use what cannot be used. Such
T1:6.5  those who are ready to walk through them to a real relationship with  God and Self. But this is not the concept of prayer of which we speak
T1:8.1  union of the human and the divine, the manifestation of the Will of  God. I have told you that you are no different than I was. Now I call
T1:8.2  What I was in life was the manifestation, in form, of the Will of  God. Thus too have you been. God is the giver of life, thus life is
T1:8.2  manifestation, in form, of the Will of God. Thus too have you been.  God is the giver of life, thus life is God's Will. But with my
T1:8.6  this relate to your thinking? You have been reborn as god-man, as  God and man united. The resurrection is the cause and effect of the
T1:8.8  joined in union accomplished the reunion of the separated self with  God. The resurrection was evidence of this accomplishment. It laid
T1:8.9  of these and know instead the example of woman, of Mary, Mother of  God.
T1:8.13  a state in which what is begotten is begotten through union with  God. It is from this unaltered state that you are free to resurrect,
T1:10.4  experience. This is what you continue to choose over the Peace of  God. This is not a right or wrong choice but it is a choice. It is
T1:10.5  experience. Now are you willing to use it to choose the Peace of  God instead? Can you wholeheartedly choose peace? Can you choose
T1:10.6  You can continue to experience life and still carry the Peace of  God within you. As you live in peace you can be an example to your
T1:10.7  and you cannot partake if you are going to carry the Peace of  God within you.
T1:10.8  is what has been meant by the many references that have been made to  God not seeing suffering. God exists with you in peace. When you feel
T1:10.8  the many references that have been made to God not seeing suffering.  God exists with you in peace. When you feel peace, you feel the Peace
T1:10.8  exists with you in peace. When you feel peace, you feel the Peace of  God. There is no other peace. There is no other God. Whether you
T1:10.8  feel the Peace of God. There is no other peace. There is no other  God. Whether you believe it now or not, I assure you, within the
T1:10.8  Whether you believe it now or not, I assure you, within the Peace of  God is all the joy of what you have known as the human experience and
T1:10.10  that hold such sway over you that you would choose not the Peace of  God. But look past what you have remembered to what was truly there.
T1:10.10  there. No moment of true learning ever arrived without the Peace of  God for without the Peace of God no true learning is possible.
T1:10.10  ever arrived without the Peace of God for without the Peace of  God no true learning is possible.
T1:10.11  look forward to rather than back upon if you but choose the Peace of  God.
T1:10.13  pause now and accept that it is here, you will not know the Peace of  God that is your own Self.
T1:10.14  no matter what words you use to describe it, is your answer to  God and God's answer to you. Peace is the inheritance I left you.
T1:10.15  have found peace—live in peace. You have been given the Peace of  God—go in Peace. Spread peace throughout the land. Go out in peace
T2:3.1  with the one mind and one heart, in union, in other words, with  God. Everything you have ever wanted to be is. Everything you have
T2:3.3  It is the Christ in you that learns to walk the earth as child of  God, as who you really are.
T2:6.10  and now, so that you exist—even within form—as the only Son of  God, the Christ, the word made flesh. Remember that the phrase, the
T2:6.10  Christ, the word made flesh. Remember that the phrase, the Son of  God, and the name Christ, but represent the original creation and are
T2:11.2  living under the old rules, the laws of man rather than the laws of  God or love. It will seem all but impossible to live in relationship
T2:11.4  thing given by you the power to do battle with the truth, or with  God. Remember now and always that you and God are one and that what
T2:11.4  with the truth, or with God. Remember now and always that you and  God are one and that what you invite to do battle with God you but
T2:11.4  that you and God are one and that what you invite to do battle with  God you but battle yourself.
T2:11.5 A  God of love does not do battle for truth needs no protection. The
T2:11.12  this choice was not available and did not overturn the laws of  God. The ego is but your belief that this has occurred; that what
T2:13.1  to you. By now you have seen that your fears of losing yourself to  God were unfounded. By now you have seen that yourself does not need
T3:2.3  will as that which allows you to be separate from and independent of  God. Once this assumption was accepted, the duality of your existence
T3:2.3  relationship, of self and others. You chose a means of creation—as  God chose a means of creation. That means of creation is separation,
T3:2.5  step in the advancement of your separated state was a step away from  God and your real Self. This belief was based in logic, but the logic
T3:2.5  of the illusion—in which you believed you chose to separate from  God out of defiance and a desire to be one with God no longer. This
T3:2.5  to separate from God out of defiance and a desire to be one with  God no longer. This could not be further from the truth and is the
T3:2.5  step toward independence came a corresponding step away from  God. As independence seemed to be your purpose here, you could not
T3:2.11  not allowed you to imagine being able to take steps “back” to the  God you believe you left in defiance, or the Self you believe you
T3:2.11  speak of here is known to you. Realize that you know that it is not  God who abandoned you, but you who abandoned your Self and God. Give
T3:2.11  it is not God who abandoned you, but you who abandoned your Self and  God. Give up your desire to think that if you did such a thing there
T3:2.11  believable, is not one that includes a need to abandon your Self or  God. Why should you be more inclined to believe that you left a
T3:2.11  long to return? The only alternative has seemed to be a belief in a  God that would banish you from paradise for your sins. We have
T3:2.11  sins. We have worked, thus far, to change your idea of a vengeful  God. Now we work to change your idea of a vengeful self. For what
T3:2.12  I return you to our comparison of the family of man to the family of  God, as well as to our discussion of the return of the prodigal sons
T3:2.12  our discussion of the return of the prodigal sons and daughters of  God. This discussion may have seemed to accept the idea of a self as
T3:3.7 Both  God and Love are found in relationship where the truth becomes known
T3:3.7  becomes known to you. When the truth becomes known to you, you know  God for you know love. Beliefs, and especially the changed beliefs we
T3:5.2  filled you and emptied of the ego-self in moments of connection with  God.
T3:5.6  that continues even now. I walked the earth in order to reveal a  God of love. The question of the time, a question still much in
T3:5.7  personal self to live on as the one true Self, the one true son of  God. The gift of redemption was given once and for all. It is the
T3:5.8  rebirth of the Self, the original purpose goes unfulfilled. Since  God is original purpose, original cause, the origin of self and of
T3:5.8  illusion will be no more and truth will reign. Such is the reign of  God.
T3:6.1  what you give. This stems from your idea of yourself as a “child” of  God, and a notion that would seem to suggest that the child is less
T3:6.1  this is not the same as the “rewards” you seek—some of you from  God, some from life, some from fate. No matter who it is you think is
T3:6.2  the lofty heights we have just traveled, discussing the reign of  God and the meaning of life and death. But this is one of the key
T3:6.2  you from yourself and has much to do with your former notions of  God and your own self. It is an idea that has been transferred to all
T3:6.4  bitterness remains, vengeance will remain. You have been shown that  God is not a God of vengeance but that you are still in the process
T3:6.4  vengeance will remain. You have been shown that God is not a  God of vengeance but that you are still in the process of learning
T3:7.1  there a corresponding belief system that formed around the idea of  God?
T3:7.2  there are no beliefs that represent the truth of who you are and who  God is, we speak now of ideas or thoughts. If you believe that God
T3:7.2  who God is, we speak now of ideas or thoughts. If you believe that  God created you with a thought or idea, then you can begin to see the
T3:8.1 The Kingdom of  God is the House of Truth. Or better said, the House of Truth has
T3:8.1  Or better said, the House of Truth has been called the Kingdom of  God. I remind you, once again, that what you have called things are
T3:8.4  beliefs hold the seeds of bitterness, the angst you feel towards  God and brothers and sisters both alive and dead.
T3:11.6  of the truth and lived by the truth. I was aware of the Peace of  God and lived within the Peace of God. I was aware of the Love of God
T3:11.6  truth. I was aware of the Peace of God and lived within the Peace of  God. I was aware of the Love of God and the Love of God lived within
T3:11.6  of God and lived within the Peace of God. I was aware of the Love of  God and the Love of God lived within me.
T3:11.6  the Peace of God. I was aware of the Love of God and the Love of  God lived within me.
T3:11.7 This is what you are now called to do: Be aware that the love of  God lives within you. Live within the Peace of God. Live by the truth.
T3:11.7  that the love of God lives within you. Live within the Peace of  God. Live by the truth.
T3:11.9 I have called the Kingdom of  God the House of Truth rather than the House of Peace for a reason.
T3:11.9  for a reason. What you are learning is no longer that the Kingdom of  God or the House of Truth exists, but how to live within it. The
T3:11.13  with its reality judgment would be upon you—not any judgment of  God, but judgment of your own mind.
T3:12.8  made of love. A physical self is not inconsistent with the laws of  God or of creation. It is simply a choice.
T3:12.9  Knowing it existed in a state inconsistent with that of the laws of  God, it made of God a being to be feared, thus continuing, and being
T3:12.9  in a state inconsistent with that of the laws of God, it made of  God a being to be feared, thus continuing, and being unable to find
T3:12.10  and love is the next step in creation, the rebirth of the Son of  God known as the resurrection.
T3:13.2  experience, saying that these things that draw you from the peace of  God draw you from the state in which you are aware of who you are,
T3:13.2  or a personal self. While you may still feel a connection to  God during such times, you will not be dwelling within the peace of
T3:13.2  God during such times, you will not be dwelling within the peace of  God. Your Self and God will be but memories to you while your reality
T3:13.2  you will not be dwelling within the peace of God. Your Self and  God will be but memories to you while your reality remains that of
T3:13.2  and the personal self. In such times you can conceive only of a  God outside of yourself and trust not in the benevolence of the
T3:14.12 Atonement, or correction, is not of you but of  God. You might think of this in terms of nature and look upon
T3:15.18  empty-handed. The truth goes with you as does the love and peace of  God.
T3:16.1  to live by the truth is the only offering you are asked to make to  God. You need make no other offerings. No sacrifices need be made and
T3:16.1  need be made and sacrifices are, in truth, unacceptable to  God. You are asked to give up nothing but unwillingness.
T3:16.15  your new Self will create. As you live with awareness of the love of  God within you, you will see that you have no need for special love
T3:17.5 That mistake was seeing  God as “other than” and separate from the self. While it was
T3:17.6  is not other than who you are but an aspect of who you are and Who  God Is. Let me remind you also that names, such as Holy Spirit, are
T3:17.8 The Holy Spirit, unlike  God the Creator, has known the existence of the illusion and the
T3:19.16  and yet remaining to tell those who would listen about the glory of  God. What will make this choice so attractive are ordinary people
T3:20.7  or for drugs that would ease suffering, and you might pray that  God spare this one from a future seemingly already written, and think
T3:20.12  are called not to return. To turn your back not on the truth nor on  God or love.
T3:20.14  you must remind yourself that it is only from within the Peace of  God that your wholeheartedness and our unity is accomplished.
T3:22.14  of what you desire is observation of what is, for your desire is of  God and what you desire now, contrary to what you would have desired
T3:22.14  have desired in the early stages of this Course, is the Will of  God. What you desire now is the Will of God because it is your true
T3:22.14  this Course, is the Will of God. What you desire now is the Will of  God because it is your true desire, your will and God's joined as one.
T4:1.5  Are you willing to be chosen? Are you willing to be the chosen of  God? All are asked. What is your answer?
T4:1.6  Many different groups believe they are the chosen people of  God, or Buddha, or Muhammad. Many of this generation believe they are
T4:1.11  if you are willing to make the choice to come to know your Self and  God now. This is the same as being asked if you are willing to be the
T4:1.11  is the same as being asked if you are willing to be the chosen of  God. This is the same question that has been asked throughout the
T4:1.11  existence of time. Some have chosen to come to know themselves and  God directly. Others have chosen to come to know themselves and God
T4:1.11  and God directly. Others have chosen to come to know themselves and  God indirectly. These are the only two choices, the choices between
T4:1.11  understand is that all choices will lead to knowledge of Self and  God, as no choices are offered that are not such. All are chosen and
T4:1.12  even the house of illusion is held within the embrace of love, of  God, of the truth. Does this sound exclusive to you? The embrace is
T4:1.13  seem in your imaginings. What a fickle universe. What a perverse  God. If an end to suffering and fear has been possible, and is
T4:1.18 You have completed God's act of choosing you by choosing  God. This is all the chosen people are in time—those who have
T4:1.18  This is all the chosen people are in time—those who have chosen  God as God has chosen them. That you have chosen God and chosen a new
T4:1.18  is all the chosen people are in time—those who have chosen God as  God has chosen them. That you have chosen God and chosen a new means
T4:1.18  who have chosen God as God has chosen them. That you have chosen  God and chosen a new means of coming to know the truth—the means of
T4:1.27  of the Holy Spirit, some were able to come to know themselves and  God through the indirect means of this state of consciousness and to
T4:1.27  direct communication was possible, to come to know themselves and  God directly, and to pass on this learning through direct means. What
T4:1.27  unaware of the new consciousness to come to know themselves and  God, and to continue to pass their learning on indirectly, or through
T4:2.3  proponent of The Way of Christ-consciousness as The Way to Self and  God.
T4:2.4 There was no Way or path or process back to  God and Self before me. It was the time of man wandering in the
T4:2.4  I came to show The Way to Christ-consciousness, which is The Way to  God and Self. But I also came to provide an intermediary, for this is
T4:2.4  self with the spirit of the divine or remembered Self. Although  God never abandoned the humans who seeded the Earth, the humans, in
T4:2.4  the humans, in the state of the forgotten self, could not know  God because of their fear. I revealed a God of Love and the Holy
T4:2.4  self, could not know God because of their fear. I revealed a  God of Love and the Holy Spirit provided for indirect and less
T4:2.4  indirect and less fearful means of communion or communication with  God.
T4:2.5  as well as all that was created, have always been the beloved of  God because Love was and is the means of creation. The people of the
T4:2.22  is a new relationship. Unity always existed. Oneness always existed.  God always existed. But you separated yourself from direct awareness
T4:2.22  awareness of your relationship with unity, with oneness, and with  God, just as you separated yourself from relationship with the
T4:2.22  with the wholeness of the pattern of creation. You have believed in  God and perhaps in some concept of unity or oneness, but you have
T4:2.22  the possibility of experiencing your own direct relationship with  God, or the possibility that your life is a direct experience of the
T4:3.6  Even the most loving parent, like unto your most loving image of  God, having brought a child into a fearful world, became subject to
T4:3.6  a world of effort with all things in it and beyond it, including  God, weighed and balanced against the idea of fear.
T4:3.7  a world of love, there can be no more weighing of love against fear.  God did not create fear and will not be judged by it. All judgment is

T4:3.7  you could not know God. You could not know God because you judged  God from within the nature of fear, believing it to be your natural
T4:4.5 This is one of the reasons that I came in the form of the “son of  God.” In the time in which I lived, the idea of inheritance was an
T4:4.9  New.” There has not been a time on Earth in which the inheritance of  God the Father was accepted, save by me. This is why this time is
T4:5.1  not your only choice. As many of you believed that I was the Son of  God and more than a man before my birth, during my lifetime and after
T4:5.1  came before me and all who came after me. All that being a Son of  God means is that you represent the continuity of creation and that
T4:5.2 This could as easily be stated as your being a Song of  God. You are God's harmony, God's expression, God's melody. You, and
T4:5.4  Energy of Love, the Energy of Creation, the Source that is known as  God. Since you are clearly alive, this Energy exists within you as it
T4:5.4  not required for Its existence or expression. How could form contain  God? How could form contain the Energy of Creation?
T4:5.5 Your form does not contain your heart, or the energy of creation, or  God. Your form is but an extension of this energy, a representation
T4:5.5  living matter that exists within the ocean has no need to search for  God. It lives in God. So do you.
T4:5.5  exists within the ocean has no need to search for God. It lives in  God. So do you.
T4:5.6  God can thus be seen as the All of everything and life, or the Body
T4:5.10 To align your will with the Will of  God is to make the choice for Christ-consciousness, to make the
T4:5.12  formerly only after your death that you chose direct revelation by  God. Think about this now and you will see that it is true. You hoped
T4:5.12  You hoped to live a good life and at the end of that life to know  God. Your vision of the afterlife was one in which God revealed
T4:5.12  that life to know God. Your vision of the afterlife was one in which  God revealed Himself to you and, in that revelation, transformed you.
T4:7.2  the time of the Holy Spirit, your understanding of your Self and  God grew through the indirect means that were available to you,
T4:7.2  you, during the time of Christ, your understanding of your Self and  God cannot help but grow through the direct and observable means now
T4:8.1  life. You are now beginning to be able to understand that it was  God who made this choice. This was the Creator making a choice.
T4:8.2  any choice in the matter, or reverting to old ideas of blaming  God for all that has ensued since this choice. I say this because
T4:8.2  because only now are you beginning to be ready to hear that you and  God are the same. That when I say “God made a choice” I am not saying
T4:8.3 The heart of  God is the center of the universe, as your own heart is the center of
T4:8.3  universe, as your own heart is the center of your being. The mind of  God is the source of all ideas, just as “your” mind is the source of
T4:8.5  it grows into its time of fullness. Creation on the scale at which  God creates produced the universe, or in actuality, many universes.
T4:8.6 Each expression of God's love, being of  God, continued to express love through expression of its nature,
T4:8.6  to express love through expression of its nature, which was of  God. What happened in the case of human beings, was a disconnect from
T4:8.6  love, which in turn caused a disconnect in your ability to know  God, because you did not know yourself.
T4:8.7  process that was as known to you and chosen by you as it was by  God, because you and God are one.
T4:8.7  as known to you and chosen by you as it was by God, because you and  God are one.
T4:8.8 You might ask how, if what I'm saying is true, could  God disconnect from himself? What God could not disconnect from was
T4:8.8  if what I'm saying is true, could God disconnect from himself? What  God could not disconnect from was the true nature of the being of
T4:8.8  God could not disconnect from was the true nature of the being of  God, which is love. What God could not disconnect from was the true
T4:8.8  from was the true nature of the being of God, which is love. What  God could not disconnect from was the true nature of creation, which
T4:8.8  disconnect from was the true nature of creation, which is love. What  God, in effect had to do, what you in effect had to do in order to
T4:8.8  to do in order to live in a nature inconsistent with that from which  God could not disconnect, was disconnect from God. Since God was the
T4:8.8  with that from which God could not disconnect, was disconnect from  God. Since God was the center of your being, it was impossible to
T4:8.8  from which God could not disconnect, was disconnect from God. Since  God was the center of your being, it was impossible to disconnect
T4:8.8  thus inconsistent with your nature, fearfulness is inconsistent with  God. Judgment is inconsistent with God. Bondage or lack of freedom is
T4:8.8  fearfulness is inconsistent with God. Judgment is inconsistent with  God. Bondage or lack of freedom is inconsistent with God.
T4:8.8  with God. Bondage or lack of freedom is inconsistent with  God.
T4:8.9  God always knew what your mind chose to rebel against: that creation
T4:8.9  to rebel against: that creation is perfect. Your mind, being of  God, was constrained by the learning limits of the body and chose to
T4:8.9  to explore new lands while still believing the Earth to be flat— God saw and knew to be consistent with the nature of man, even while
T4:8.9  and struggle that this impatience generated was inconsistent with  God.
T4:8.10 Thus, what could  God then do? What does creation do with a storm arising on the
T4:8.11  that is the pattern of creation. Yet your rebellion was not with  God, although you came to see it as such. Your rebellion was not
T4:8.11  the most extreme of measures—this is what happened between you and  God.
T4:8.12  it was the created's response. It was your response, and since  God is both the Creator and the Created, it was God's response as
T4:8.13  to live as both the Created and the Creator, you expand and enrich  God. What other purpose would God ever have had for wanting to
T4:8.13  and the Creator, you expand and enrich God. What other purpose would  God ever have had for wanting to express the Love that is Himself in
T4:8.14  who you are that you come to know who you are, then this is true of  God as well. God could not be the only being in all of creation who

T4:8.14  and identity is synonymous with creation? You like to think that  God knows everything, and God surely knows everything that is. But
T4:8.14  with creation? You like to think that God knows everything, and  God surely knows everything that is. But consciousness of what is,
T4:8.14  is, the Christ-consciousness that allows you to be in communion with  God, is not a static state. While consciousness of the truth is
T4:9.9 You who have provided a service cherished by  God, and who have risen in the esteem of your brothers and sisters,

D:1.2  is the same as you. In our union we bear the sameness of the Son of  God. In going forth with the vision of unity you become as I was
D:1.12  you now, today: The state of grace of the newly identified child of  God.
D:1.23 This is akin to thinking of a  god who exists outside or apart from yourself. If you fully accepted
D:2.23 This is the agreement  God asks of you, your part of the shared agreement that will fulfill
D:3.22  are the ideas of your brothers and sisters as much as they are of  God. I am teaching you nothing, nothing old and nothing new. I am
D:4.1 This Covenant is the fulfillment of the agreement between you and  God. The agreement is for you to be the new. As you are new, so too
D:4.1  The agreement is for you to be the new. As you are new, so too is  God, for you are one, if not the same. As you are new, so too is the
D:5.14  but to allow all that was created to show the way back to Self and  God to be what it is in truth. This is the return of love to love.
D:5.15  are going beyond simple recognition and acceptance of the Self as  God created the Self—to the living of this Self in form. This is an
D:5.15  form. This is an acceptance that recognizes that while the Self that  God created is eternal and the self of form as ancient as the sea and
D:6.10 What these laws of science do not take into account are the laws of  God. Although science is beginning to see much as it truly is,
D:7.10  nature associated with them—now can love all of your Self, all of  God, all of creation. You can respond to love with love.
D:7.18 Revelation is of  God. Observation, vision, and desire are steps leading you beyond
D:7.27  In truth, this circle is everything, the All of All, the universe,  God. But just as the Earth can be seen as your home, although you are
D:9.5  self. When it was said within this Course that you are an idea of  God, and when ideas were spoken of as if they were synonymous with
D:11.2  brothers and sisters, is insane. To think of the thought or idea of  God by which you were created as the same type of thought I have just

D:15.7  creation story of what was once my tradition as an example. Before  God “said” anything, a mighty wind swept over the wasteland and the
D:15.8 Then  God, a being, spoke. Here we have both the introduction of a being
D:16.5  Through the art of thought, these abilities become who we are.  God and Creation are synonymous, and you are reminded of that here as
D:16.5  are synonymous, and you are reminded of that here as you and  God become synonymous through Creation. Means and end are one. Cause
D:16.5  end are one. Cause and effect the same. Creation is means and end as  God is means and end. Creation is cause and effect as God is cause

D:16.8  givens. Life was given through the extension and the expression of  God, of Love, of Creation—through the extension of wholeness—into
D:16.9  in choice. While you think that you can choose to stand apart from  God, apart from Love, apart from Creation, you cannot. But you can,
D:16.18  of your best self, who you may imagine now, through the grace of  God, you finally are. But this may also at times be an image of a
D:17.19  feel awe, which, it has been stated, is due nothing and no one but  God. To move beyond desire to reverence is to move into the state of
D:17.19  desire to reverence is to move into the state of communion with  God, full oneness with God, wholeness.

D:Day1.2  I care not in what form of the truth you believe, nor to what  god you believe you send your prayers; although if you do not believe

D:Day1.11  matter whether this power be called Buddha or Allah, Muhammad or  God.
D:Day1.12 It matters not. The power of  God is not what is being spoken of here. It is our power that is

D:Day3.45  insane argument about abundance, is an acknowledgment, even from  God, that you do not have what you need, that you are lacking, and
D:Day3.46  are still waiting for provision. Even those of you who have asked  God for abundance, and opened yourselves to receive it, even those of

D:Day3.49  of it being an “if this, then that” world. You try to guess what  God might want you to do, be it being still and not worrying about
D:Day3.59  the compassionate and loving benevolence of the universe, of  God, of the All of All, and still accept the reality of lack. You

D:Day4.35  God was almost touchable. As if one could raise ones arms and touch  God, stretch just a little more and reach heaven. You thus may think
D:Day4.35  the mountain as a time of getting in touch with your own access to  God, your own access to heaven. You might think that if you stretch

D:Day17.10  The main ability of the individual is the ability to represent what  God created, the means of coming to know—which is
D:Day18.2  with the world. So do each of you. These two ways also represent  God and Christ-consciousness, the extension of God. God is everything

D:Day22.8 This awareness of union with  God is what is now within you awaiting your expression. Awareness of
D:Day22.8  is now within you awaiting your expression. Awareness of union with  God exists in everything. It is there in every tree and every flower,

D:Day22.9  words that are simply calling you to realization of your union with  God and to the new world you can create once you accept and make real
D:Day22.10 You might think of yourself as a channel through which union with  God is expressed and made real here and now. There is no other time.
D:Day22.11  only the feeling that a place of union exists in which you know  God, in which you know love, in which you know of joy without sorrow,

D:Day28.14 If the attitude you will have greater need of reversing is that of  God determining the circumstances of your life, you have probably
D:Day28.14  of success or failure. Therefore, you think that you must take what  God has to “give.”
D:Day29.1 —where they cease to be real for us. Wholeness and separation,  God and man, life and the individuated self, what you do and who you
D:Day30.5  known, the experience and the experiencer. The quest to join with  God is this quest. The quest to be the knower and the known, the
D:Day31.8  Experience is not known separately from the Self. Self and  God are one and experiencing together in wholeness. For the
D:Day31.8  wholeness. For the individuated Self to experience separately from  God is to negate the purpose of the experience of the Self which is
D:Day31.8  God is to negate the purpose of the experience of the Self which is  God. To negate is to deny what is. The denial of what is is the
D:Day32.1 The experience of the Self is  God. It is not from God. It is not of God. It is God.

D:Day32.3  concepts of oneness and manyness for if you retain any notions of  God that are inaccurate, they will arise here.
D:Day32.4 Let us discuss, for a moment, the concept of  God because everyone has at least some sort of concept of God.
D:Day32.4  concept of God because everyone has at least some sort of concept of  God.
D:Day32.5 First we will look at the concept of  God as Supreme Being—God as one being, one entity. When thought of
D:Day32.5 First we will look at the concept of God as Supreme Being— God as one being, one entity. When thought of in such a way, it is
D:Day32.5  When thought of in such a way, it is somewhat easier to relate to  God than when God is thought of in broader terms. You might think of
D:Day32.5  of in such a way, it is somewhat easier to relate to God than when  God is thought of in broader terms. You might think of God as you
D:Day32.5  God than when God is thought of in broader terms. You might think of  God as you think of yourself. When thinking of the ideas put forth
D:Day32.5  When thinking of the ideas put forth here, you might think of  God deciding to know Himself. You might think of God deciding to
D:Day32.5  you might think of God deciding to know Himself. You might think of  God deciding to create. You might think of God creating. You might
D:Day32.5  You might think of God deciding to create. You might think of  God creating. You might think of God granting free will to His
D:Day32.5  to create. You might think of God creating. You might think of  God granting free will to His creations. Then, perhaps, you might
D:Day32.5  free will to His creations. Then, perhaps, you might think of  God resting, or standing back and witnessing the unfolding of all
D:Day32.6 What would the purpose of this be? Would  God be standing back, judging Himself on the goodness of what He
D:Day32.7 Another concept of  God is that of Creator. This concept might have nothing to do with
D:Day32.7  of Creator. This concept might have nothing to do with the notion of  God wanting to know Himself. This concept may be quite amorphous and
D:Day32.7  than scientific notions of the source of life. Whether it be called  God or the Big Bang or evolution, this notion presents the concept of
D:Day32.8 Another idea of  God within the concept of a Creator God is of God existing in all of

D:Day32.8 Another idea of God within the concept of a Creator God is of  God existing in all of what has been created. God is, within this
D:Day32.8  of a Creator God is of God existing in all of what has been created.  God is, within this concept, seen as the spirit within all that lives
D:Day32.8  and also seen as an overriding spirit, a force, a unifying factor.  God is closer, within this idea, to being a participatory being, but

D:Day32.11  to you of his life as an example life. Jesus was called the Son of  God and also God. Those who understand the meaning of any or all of
D:Day32.11  life as an example life. Jesus was called the Son of God and also  God. Those who understand the meaning of any or all of the example
D:Day32.11  any or all of the example lives that have come as revelations of who  God is, understand that those lives were not separate from God.
D:Day32.11  of who God is, understand that those lives were not separate from  God.
D:Day32.12 Yet to believe that  God is everyone can still make you feel as if you are not God. How
D:Day32.12  that God is everyone can still make you feel as if you are not  God. How can this be? This can be only because in your contemplation
D:Day32.12  of self. There is a rebellion, a negation of either the self or  God that occurs when these two concepts—concepts of the self and of
D:Day32.12  that occurs when these two concepts—concepts of the self and of  God—cannot be reconciled or joined in harmony. Either the self or
D:Day32.12  God—cannot be reconciled or joined in harmony. Either the self or  God takes precedence in all lives. All lives. There is no other
D:Day32.12  lives. All lives. There is no other choice as long as the self and  God are seen as separate.
D:Day32.13 Whether  God is seen as Creator or Supreme Being, God is still seen as the All
D:Day32.13 Whether God is seen as Creator or Supreme Being,  God is still seen as the All Powerful. While God is seen as the All
D:Day32.13  or Supreme Being, God is still seen as the All Powerful. While  God is seen as the All Powerful, man is disenfranchised. Even while
D:Day32.13  God is seen as the All Powerful, man is disenfranchised. Even while  God is perhaps seen in all things, or as the spirit by which all that
D:Day32.13  seen in all things, or as the spirit by which all that lives, lives,  God is still seen as having what man has not. The list of what one
D:Day32.13  as having what man has not. The list of what one can imagine makes  God powerful and man not could be endless, just as one could make an
D:Day32.13  one could make an endless list of what they believe differentiates  God from man. The example lives in which the power of God was
D:Day32.13  differentiates God from man. The example lives in which the power of  God was demonstrated in the lives of men and women are seen as little
D:Day32.13  as little more than pass-through situations in which the power of  God passed through men and women to other men and women.

D:Day32.14  is the point that this work has striven to get across. That man and  God are one. Not only is man God. But God is man and woman and child.
D:Day32.14  has striven to get across. That man and God are one. Not only is man  God. But God is man and woman and child. God is.

D:Day32.15 And yet,  God could not be all that is, or God would not be in relationship. If
D:Day32.15 And yet, God could not be all that is, or  God would not be in relationship. If the natural world around you has
D:Day32.15  around you has revealed anything to you of the nature of life and  God, it has revealed to you the truth of relationship. As has been
D:Day32.15  truly exist. Each entity or being would be singular and alone. Yet  God has been referred to as the All of All. How could God be the All
D:Day32.15  and alone. Yet God has been referred to as the All of All. How could  God be the All of All and not also be man? How can God be all that is
D:Day32.15  of All. How could God be the All of All and not also be man? How can  God be all that is and at the same time not all that is? How can God
D:Day32.15  can God be all that is and at the same time not all that is? How can  God be the All Powerful and Living God and also be lowly and
D:Day32.15  time not all that is? How can God be the All Powerful and Living  God and also be lowly and powerless man?
D:Day32.16  God has also been referred to within this work as relationship
D:Day32.17 The claimed relationship of  God to Jesus was that of Father to Son but also as one in being. One
D:Day32.18 Could  God be one in being, but different in relationship, to each of us?
D:Day32.18  Could not God's relationship to everything be what differentiates  God from us and us from God? So that we are both one in being and
D:Day32.18  to everything be what differentiates God from us and us from  God? So that we are both one in being and different? Could it be that
D:Day32.18  being and different? Could it be that while we are one in being with  God we can also become more god-like through the practice of holy
D:Day32.18  time together, be attempts to show you how you can be more like unto  God in relationship, even while you are God in being?
D:Day32.18  you can be more like unto God in relationship, even while you are  God in being?
D:Day32.19 Would this answer your questions concerning how  God is both different and the same? Would this answer your questions
D:Day32.19  without relationship. You are one in being with your Father, with  God, with the Creator and with all of creation. You are also,
D:Day32.20  God is the being and the relationship. You are capable of all the
D:Day32.20  capable of all the power of God's being but you are powerful only as  God is powerful—in relationship. Because God is in relationship
D:Day32.20  you are powerful only as God is powerful—in relationship. Because  God is in relationship with everything, God is All Powerful. Because
D:Day32.20 —in relationship. Because God is in relationship with everything,  God is All Powerful. Because you are in a state of limited
D:Day32.20  relationship, you have limited power. This is the difference between  God and man. This difference, however, can be diminished as you
D:Day32.20  As you embrace holy relationship you can become powerful as  God is powerful.
D:Day33.1  powerless is to embrace an idea laden with conflict. The power of  God exists within everyone because all are one in being with God. And
D:Day33.1  of God exists within everyone because all are one in being with  God. And yet this power cannot be used. It can only serve. What does
D:Day33.7  comes to you, every event, every situation, is of being, which is  God, which is love.
D:Day33.11 All relationship is with love because all relationship is with  God, who is one in being with you.
D:Day33.12  In the time of Jesus, the powerful were seen as being blessed by  God and the powerless as not being so blessed. This way of seeing has
D:Day34.7  experience your being as powerless, you are negating the power of  God who is one in being with you.
D:Day34.8  of sameness of being. Are you willing to experience the power of  God? To let it flow through you? Realize how many have said no to
D:Day35.1 In your relationship to  God, who is your being, you can know relationship to everything,
D:Day35.3  end of relationship. You have always existed in relationship with  God who is your being. But while it has been said that you are one in
D:Day35.3  are one in being and different in relationship, relationship is also  God. God is the relationship of everything to everything.
D:Day35.3  in being and different in relationship, relationship is also God.  God is the relationship of everything to everything.
D:Day35.4  to yourself and others, without realizing that your being is  God, that others are one with you, that God is the relationship of
D:Day35.4  realizing that your being is God, that others are one with you, that  God is the relationship of everything to everything, or that you are
D:Day35.4  to everything, or that you are the relationship of everything to  God. Everything that is shared with God is shared with all because
D:Day35.4  relationship of everything to God. Everything that is shared with  God is shared with all because God is in relationship with
D:Day35.4  God. Everything that is shared with God is shared with all because  God is in relationship with everything. It has been said that when
D:Day35.5  being that you were not sharing the relationship of everything with  God? As long as you have known that you are a self, as long as you
D:Day35.5  as you have been aware of your own existence, you have been aware of  God. Your awareness of Self is God. God's awareness of you is Self.
D:Day35.5  own existence, you have been aware of God. Your awareness of Self is  God. God's awareness of you is Self. This awareness exists in
D:Day35.19  is as different from creating in unity as has been your concept of  God and man. Few of you have even thought of creating as God creates.
D:Day35.19  concept of God and man. Few of you have even thought of creating as  God creates. You have barely been able to accept the thought of the
D:Day35.21  some role in the creation of your life. You may feel that at times  God has intervened, or that at times you have been a victim of fate,
D:Day36.9  always been creating because you have always been one in being with  God who is endlessly creating. But you are only now a creator in
D:Day36.10  Without your awareness of unity and relationship, it was as if  God was everything and you were nothing, or as if you were everything
D:Day36.10  everything and you were nothing, or as if you were everything and  God was nothing. But just as with all and nothing, there was no
D:Day36.10  and God's being without relationship. You could conceive of self and  God in different ways, but you could not truly create difference but
D:Day36.10  perceive of difference. You thus always remained one in being with  God, yet continued to relate only to a world and to experiences you
D:Day36.10  to experiences you perceived as being either created by a separate  God or created by your separate self. You experienced the power of
D:Day36.11 There is only difference between your being and  God in relationship. This is the example that the ideas of Father,
D:Day36.11  ideas of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit as a trinity representing one  God were meant to portray. The Son could only be God in relationship
D:Day36.11  representing one God were meant to portray. The Son could only be  God in relationship to God. The Holy Spirit could only be God in
D:Day36.11  were meant to portray. The Son could only be God in relationship to  God. The Holy Spirit could only be God in relationship to God. The
D:Day36.11  only be God in relationship to God. The Holy Spirit could only be  God in relationship to God. The Father could only be God in
D:Day36.11  to God. The Holy Spirit could only be God in relationship to  God. The Father could only be God in relationship to God. God could
D:Day36.11  could only be God in relationship to God. The Father could only be  God in relationship to God. God could only be the Father, Son, and
D:Day36.11  relationship to God. The Father could only be God in relationship to  God. God could only be the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit in
D:Day36.11  to God. The Father could only be God in relationship to God.  God could only be the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit in relationship.
D:Day36.11  Father, Son, and Holy Spirit in relationship. Without relationship,  God is simply all—being. Without relationship, what is not God is
D:Day36.11  God is simply all—being. Without relationship, what is not  God is simply being—simply existing at the opposite end of the
D:Day36.12  is this simple nothingness of existence without relationship to  God, and thus existence without relationship to the power of
D:Day36.14 Because you have always been one in being with  God, this power—this power of being—has always been yours. The
D:Day36.15  creativity and knowing or perception is to be one in being with  God. Accept this, for this is what God is and what you are. This is
D:Day36.15  is to be one in being with God. Accept this, for this is what  God is and what you are. This is being. To be one in being with God
D:Day36.15  what God is and what you are. This is being. To be one in being with  God and yet to exist outside of the powerful state of relationship
D:Day36.16 When you realize that you are one in being with  God and different in relationship you accept the power of being, or
D:Day36.16  in relationship you accept the power of being, or individuating  God. You accept the power of God. You become powerful.
D:Day36.16  the power of being, or individuating God. You accept the power of  God. You become powerful.
D:Day36.17  God remains God who is one in being with all, and God also is given
D:Day36.17 God remains  God who is one in being with all, and God also is given form, or is,
D:Day36.17 God remains God who is one in being with all, and  God also is given form, or is, in other words, differentiated. God is
D:Day36.17  and God also is given form, or is, in other words, differentiated.  God is All in All. And God is also All in One and All in Many. God is
D:Day36.17  form, or is, in other words, differentiated. God is All in All. And  God is also All in One and All in Many. God is still the Creator of
D:Day36.17  God is All in All. And God is also All in One and All in Many.  God is still the Creator of All, but God is also now the Creator of
D:Day36.17  All in One and All in Many. God is still the Creator of All, but  God is also now the Creator of One, the Creator of the experience of
D:Day36.17  the experience and the experiencer of life. Through differentiation,  God is you as you are God. God retains oneness of being and also
D:Day36.17  experiencer of life. Through differentiation, God is you as you are  God. God retains oneness of being and also becomes a being in union
D:Day36.17  of life. Through differentiation, God is you as you are God.  God retains oneness of being and also becomes a being in union and
D:Day36.18 Yet you do not disappear or cease to be. You are not replaced by  God whom you have always been one with in being. You simply accept
D:Day37.1 What we have just done is replaced an old idea of  God with a new idea of God.
D:Day37.1  we have just done is replaced an old idea of God with a new idea of  God.
D:Day37.2 If you no longer believe in  God as a supreme and separate being, why should it be difficult to
D:Day37.2  a supreme and separate being, why should it be difficult to see that  God is being? This is not much different than saying that the most
D:Day37.2  you is that you are being—and that the most basic truth about  God is that God is being. Yet the fact that you are being does not
D:Day37.2  that you are being—and that the most basic truth about God is that  God is being. Yet the fact that you are being does not define who you
D:Day37.6 Relationship and union are the way of  God. The way of heart and mind, body and soul, heaven and earth. God
D:Day37.6  of God. The way of heart and mind, body and soul, heaven and earth.  God is being in unity and relationship. So are you.
D:Day37.7 How then, you might ask, are you distinct from  God? Is your body distinct from your aliveness? You keep looking for
D:Day37.7  distinct from your aliveness? You keep looking for distinction from  God as if distinction means separation—as if God is a separate
D:Day37.7  for distinction from God as if distinction means separation—as if  God is a separate being. If this were all this idea was, it would not
D:Day37.7  difficult to dislodge, but the difficulty lies in that you think of  God in your image, and the image you hold of yourself has been
D:Day37.7  been inaccurate. Because you believe you are separate, you created  God as a particular and separate being.
D:Day37.8  continue a certain reliance. Your differentiation from the being of  God can only come through the relationship and unity that you would
D:Day37.8  be like demanding to be a body and not a mind! Your reliance on  God can only come through the relationship and unity that you would
D:Day37.9  as intent as you have been on your idea of a separate and particular  God is that you want to believe that there is a compassionate being
D:Day37.9  everything, looking out for you, there to help when you are in need.  God is all compassionate being everywhere—not one being of
D:Day37.9  you to become the one being of compassion that you already are in  God.
D:Day37.10 And then you realize that Jesus was being  God and was called Jesus Christ because he lived within
D:Day37.10  consciousness that you share. You realize that the man, the  God, the historical figure who has been called Jesus Christ was not
D:Day37.12  for a moment at what and who you have been being and what and who  God has been being.
D:Day37.13  been being. The simple truth that you are a being makes you one with  God, who is being. This truth, however, has escaped you. So you have
D:Day37.13  seen as separate rather than distinct from the divine being who is  God. Because you are being, however, (and note here that you are
D:Day37.13  you are being, however, (and note here that you are being, and  God is being, and that it is not being said that either you or God
D:Day37.13  and God is being, and that it is not being said that either you or  God are “a” being) you have power—the power of being which is the
D:Day37.14  either that you are in complete control of your life, or that  God or fate have as much control as you do. You may believe yourself,
D:Day37.14  or fate have as much control as you do. You may believe yourself,  God, and fate to be benevolent, or you may believe that everything,
D:Day37.15  than even all of this, you might ask, if you are one in being with  God, is it being said that you are being God? That you have been
D:Day37.15  you are one in being with God, is it being said that you are being  God? That you have been being God even within the limited parameters
D:Day37.15  is it being said that you are being God? That you have been being  God even within the limited parameters of life as you have known it?
D:Day37.16  human being having a separate and distinct relationship with  God, by which you mean a relationship like no other. And if you see
D:Day37.17  to be a tree blowing in the wind, what it would be like to know  God, but you cannot know, and your separate being “knows” of this
D:Day37.20 Now let us talk of  God.
D:Day37.21  God is being in unity and relationship with everything. Thus God
D:Day37.21 God is being in unity and relationship with everything. Thus  God knows you. God is one in being with you because you are one
D:Day37.21  being in unity and relationship with everything. Thus God knows you.  God is one in being with you because you are one aspect of
D:Day37.21  everything. As one being in unity and relationship with everything  God is one with every thought and every feeling. God is one with
D:Day37.21  with everything God is one with every thought and every feeling.  God is one with every creation. God is all knowing. God is, in short,
D:Day37.21  every thought and every feeling. God is one with every creation.  God is all knowing. God is, in short, the collective consciousness
D:Day37.21  every feeling. God is one with every creation. God is all knowing.  God is, in short, the collective consciousness and the collective
D:Day37.22  also be called the “being” that you appeal to when you appeal to  God. Knowing what you are coming to know about the true nature of God
D:Day37.22  to God. Knowing what you are coming to know about the true nature of  God should thus not leave you feeling bereft of a God you can feel
D:Day37.22  the true nature of God should thus not leave you feeling bereft of a  God you can feel close to, appeal to, thank and praise. But doing so
D:Day37.22  But doing so can also be confusing if it leads to thoughts of  God as a particular being. Yet the idea of God as Father, introduced
D:Day37.22  it leads to thoughts of God as a particular being. Yet the idea of  God as Father, introduced and championed by Jesus Christ, was also
D:Day37.22  was also created by Jesus Christ. Thus is the power of man and  God together, the power of creation. What this is saying is that
D:Day37.22  the power of creation. What this is saying is that there is a  God the Father to relate to and that this God the Father does not
D:Day37.22  saying is that there is a God the Father to relate to and that this  God the Father does not negate God, nor does God negate God the
D:Day37.22  the Father to relate to and that this God the Father does not negate  God, nor does God negate God the Father.
D:Day37.22  relate to and that this God the Father does not negate God, nor does  God negate God the Father.
D:Day37.22  that this God the Father does not negate God, nor does God negate  God the Father.
D:Day37.23  God the Father is an idea that was created and thus exists much as
D:Day37.23  is an idea that was created and thus exists much as other ideas of  God were created and thus exist. But this creation, like the creation
D:Day37.23  creation, like the creation of Jesus Christ himself, is not all of  God, while at the same time it is all of God just as Jesus was and is
D:Day37.23  himself, is not all of God, while at the same time it is all of  God just as Jesus was and is all of God. In union and relationship,
D:Day37.23  at the same time it is all of God just as Jesus was and is all of  God. In union and relationship, God is all and God is differentiated.
D:Day37.23  God just as Jesus was and is all of God. In union and relationship,  God is all and God is differentiated.
D:Day37.23  was and is all of God. In union and relationship, God is all and  God is differentiated.
D:Day37.24 Jesus, the example life used throughout this Course, was both man and  God. He was being in unity and relationship. Being God did not negate
D:Day37.24  was both man and God. He was being in unity and relationship. Being  God did not negate his being Jesus. And being Jesus did not negate
D:Day37.24  God did not negate his being Jesus. And being Jesus did not negate  God being God. Jesus could create God the Father, could create a
D:Day37.24  not negate his being Jesus. And being Jesus did not negate God being  God. Jesus could create God the Father, could create a being
D:Day37.24  And being Jesus did not negate God being God. Jesus could create  God the Father, could create a being consistent with his being,
D:Day37.25 Jesus was all of  God and God was all of Jesus while at the same time each was
D:Day37.25 Jesus was all of God and  God was all of Jesus while at the same time each was different or
D:Day37.26 The only real difference that exists or has ever existed between  God and man is that man sees difference in a way that makes no sense.
D:Day37.26  of creation. To differentiate in union and relationship is to be  God in form—to give expression to “all” that exists in union and
D:Day37.27 By simply being, you have been “part” of  God but you have not seen this as what it really means either. You
D:Day37.27  have seen this as being separate, or at most as being “a” part of  God—as if you are a drop of water in the ocean—and in this
D:Day37.27  in the ocean—and in this example reemphasized the mightiness of  God and the lowliness of man. The “part” of God you have been being
D:Day37.27  the mightiness of God and the lowliness of man. The “part” of  God you have been being is being. You have been a feeling, thinking,
D:Day37.27  been a feeling, thinking, creating, perceiving being. The “part” of  God you have not been being is union. Remember, God is being in union
D:Day37.27  being. The “part” of God you have not been being is union. Remember,  God is being in union and relationship. This is what God is. God is
D:Day37.27  Remember, God is being in union and relationship. This is what  God is. God is being. God is relationship. God is union.
D:Day37.27  God is being in union and relationship. This is what God is.  God is being. God is relationship. God is union.
D:Day37.27  being in union and relationship. This is what God is. God is being.  God is relationship. God is union.
D:Day37.27  This is what God is. God is being. God is relationship.  God is union.
D:Day38.3  I ask you to be attentive, to the relationship that you feel with  God.
D:Day38.5 Call me  God the Father, call me God the Mother, call me Creator, or Great

D:Day38.10  your own Self. Now it is time to see me as your own God as well as  God of all. Now it is time to call me who I Am.
D:Day39.5  of knowing, and your embrace of mystery. Of knowing me as your  God and as God of all. Of knowing you are no longer being on your own
D:Day39.5  and your embrace of mystery. Of knowing me as your God and as  God of all. Of knowing you are no longer being on your own and yet of
D:Day39.7  necessary link between the separate and each other, between all and  God. Yet if the time of Christ is about the end of the need for the
D:Day39.18  you through your projection. And yet what you projected and called  God, just as what you projected and named thousands of other
D:Day39.18  you would give it. This is your universe. I have been, to you, the  God of this universe.
D:Day39.20 Have I been a benevolent  God in your universe? Then you have been benevolent and seen your
D:Day39.21 Have I been a judgmental  God in your universe? Then you have been judgmental and lived in a

D:Day39.23 Have I been a distant  God who does not show his love for you or others? Then you have been
D:Day39.24 Have I been a  God you have sought and never found? Then you have not found yourself.
D:Day39.25 Have I been a fair  God? Then you have been fair and the world has treated you fairly.
D:Day39.26 Have I been the  God of your religion? Then you have been religious.
D:Day39.27 Have I been a  God of vengeance? Then you have been vengeful.
D:Day39.28 Have I been a  God of love? Then you have been loving.
D:Day39.30 Has your  God not been a god at all, but science, money, career, beauty, fame,
D:Day39.30 Has your God not been a  god at all, but science, money, career, beauty, fame, celebrity,
D:Day39.30  fame, celebrity, intellect or any other concept that has become your  God can be a tough task master, or a fair friend, loving or unloving,
D:Day39.30  yourself and others or bring you closer to yourself and others. No  god who has been projected is without attributes, even gods such as
D:Day39.31 Have you had no  god, no science, no beauty, no wealth, but only a meager and hopeless
D:Day39.31  no beauty, no wealth, but only a meager and hopeless life? Then your  god has been the god of defeat.
D:Day39.31  but only a meager and hopeless life? Then your god has been the  god of defeat.

C:P.24  of patience that is infinite. God is patient, but the world is not.  God is patient for God sees you only as you are. The Christ in you is
C:P.27 Obviously the nature of  God is different than the nature of man. God does not have physical
C:P.34 The content of  God is love. Jesus embodied God by embodying love. He came to reverse
C:2.8  that these are the only options available to creatures of a loving  God is insane. Yet you believe that to think the opposite is true
C:2.11  you have made of it. The Bible instructs you to be compassionate as  God is compassionate. You have defined it unlike the compassion of
C:2.12 To be compassionate as  God is compassionate is to see as God sees. Again, I stress to you,
C:4.5  on your inability to recognize love and thus who you are and who  God is. How could you not have been fearful with doubt as powerful as
C:5.4 Union is impossible without God.  God is union. Is this not like saying God is Love? Love is impossible
C:5.4  is impossible without God. God is union. Is this not like saying  God is Love? Love is impossible without union. The same is true of
C:5.22  this desire to be separate and alone. Your entire resistance to  God is based on this. You think you have chosen to be separate from
C:5.30  God is known to you within relationships, as this is all that is real
C:6.19  God's beloved son and dwelling place of God Himself? It is because  God is not separate from anything that you cannot be. It is because
C:6.19  God is not separate from anything that you cannot be. It is because  God is not separate from anything that heaven is where you are. It is
C:6.19  separate from anything that heaven is where you are. It is because  God is love that all your relationships are holy, and from them you
C:8.17  terms that set your reality in a location, on a planet, in a body.  God is here and you belong to God. This is the only sense in which
C:8.17  or should accept the notion that you belong here. When you realize  God is here, then and only then can you truthfully say here is where
C:9.34  to a previous condition that you imagine you know. In this scenario  God is like unto your banker rather than your Father. You would prove
C:10.13  sisters, right now, today. To believe in God without understanding  God is one thing. To believe in your union with your neighbor without
C:11.9 To think you must protect anything from  God is insane, and you know that this is so. But because you view
C:12.4  yourself. Yet you must understand that nothing that is not part of  God is worthy of joining, nor can join with you. What you have sought
C:12.24  benevolent and kind, or just another name for love, but such it is.  God is but creation's starting point, the creator of creation and yet
C:12.24  like unto Creation, proceeded from the starting point of God.  God is the Son and Holy Spirit's starting point as well, the Creator
C:16.16  to your memory of creation. To wrestle the right to judge away from  God is an act against God, and like a child who has dared to defy his
C:17.2  as well as in regard to relationship. Your choice to separate from  God is but a separation from your own Self, and this is truly the

C:23.6  consuming. Yet, while God transcends knowing, your relationship with  God is how you know both God and your Self.
C:27.10  objects and bodies, as all that exists, and thus who you are and who  God is? Is it such a huge leap to go from saying you only exist in
C:29.3  your notion of yourself, and to minimize it. To be of service to  God is not to be a slave to God but to attend to God. To give God
C:29.15 Life is service to God.  God is service to life. You are God in life. Thus you are both life
C:29.25  you have received only needs to be given? The indivisibleness of  God is simply this: an unbroken chain of giving and receiving. Thus
T1:2.21  To experience what is and to acknowledge what is as being a gift of  God is to be present as a divine being having a human experience. No
T1:4.26  this thought, for doubt about your Self is doubt about God. While  God is nothing but the Source of Love, you have, in your doubt, made
T1:8.2  manifestation, in form, of the Will of God. Thus too have you been.  God is the giver of life, thus life is God's Will. But with my
T1:10.8  Whether you believe it now or not, I assure you, within the Peace of  God is all the joy of what you have known as the human experience and
T3:5.8  rebirth of the Self, the original purpose goes unfulfilled. Since  God is original purpose, original cause, the origin of self and of
T3:6.4  bitterness remains, vengeance will remain. You have been shown that  God is not a God of vengeance but that you are still in the process
T3:7.2  there are no beliefs that represent the truth of who you are and who  God is, we speak now of ideas or thoughts. If you believe that God
T3:8.1 The Kingdom of  God is the House of Truth. Or better said, the House of Truth has
T3:17.6  is not other than who you are but an aspect of who you are and Who  God Is. Let me remind you also that names, such as Holy Spirit, are
T4:5.10 To align your will with the Will of  God is to make the choice for Christ-consciousness, to make the
T4:8.3 The heart of  God is the center of the universe, as your own heart is the center of
T4:8.3  universe, as your own heart is the center of your being. The mind of  God is the source of all ideas, just as “your” mind is the source of
T4:8.12  it was the created's response. It was your response, and since  God is both the Creator and the Created, it was God's response as
D:14.7  has been said often that revelation is of God, but remember now that  God is not “other than” and that the God who seemed so distant from
D:16.5  end are one. Cause and effect the same. Creation is means and end as  God is means and end. Creation is cause and effect as God is cause
D:16.5  and end as God is means and end. Creation is cause and effect as  God is cause and effect. When you move from the state of becoming to
D:Day1.12 It matters not. The power of  God is not what is being spoken of here. It is our power that is
D:Day1.12  into form. The power of who we are rather than the power of who  God is.
D:Day11.5  the observed. This is as true of God as it is of the self of form.  God is the oneness and the separation. Life is the relationship. God
D:Day11.5  God is the oneness and the separation. Life is the relationship.  God is what is. Life is the relationship of what is with Its Self.
D:Day11.7  It is not man. It is the relationship that allows the awareness that  God is everything. It has been called wisdom, Sophia, spirit. It is
D:Day13.4  relationship. God's love is your love. Your love is the love of God.  God is love.
D:Day14.11  the spacious Self. God has been described as the “all knowing” for  God is the relationship. Relationship is the known. The unknown, like
D:Day17.2  God nor man but the relationship that allows the awareness that  God is everything. You have been told Christ-consciousness has also
D:Day17.3  being in union, undivided and inseparable from God, the All of All.  God is only the all-knowing because God is in everything and
D:Day17.3  from God, the All of All. God is only the all-knowing because  God is in everything and everyone. Consciousness itself is not
D:Day17.3  and everyone. Consciousness itself is not knowing but awareness.  God is the creator of knowing because God created a means of coming
D:Day18.2  also represent God and Christ-consciousness, the extension of God.  God is everything in heaven and on earth and is in everything on
D:Day22.6  same function produces the same results. No one who is in union with  God is in union with the known. Yet it is as if through this union
D:Day22.8 This awareness of union with  God is what is now within you awaiting your expression. Awareness of
D:Day22.10 You might think of yourself as a channel through which union with  God is expressed and made real here and now. There is no other time.
D:Day28.11 You and God are one.  God is not the giver and you the receiver.
D:Day30.5  known, the experience and the experiencer. The quest to join with  God is this quest. The quest to be the knower and the known, the
D:Day31.8  wholeness. For the individuated Self to experience separately from  God is to negate the purpose of the experience of the Self which is
D:Day32.5  of in such a way, it is somewhat easier to relate to God than when  God is thought of in broader terms. You might think of God as you
D:Day32.7 Another concept of  God is that of Creator. This concept might have nothing to do with
D:Day32.8 Another idea of God within the concept of a Creator  God is of God existing in all of what has been created. God is,
D:Day32.8  of a Creator God is of God existing in all of what has been created.  God is, within this concept, seen as the spirit within all that lives
D:Day32.8  and also seen as an overriding spirit, a force, a unifying factor.  God is closer, within this idea, to being a participatory being, but
D:Day32.8  Man lives and has free will. Animals abide by the laws of nature.  God is still a concept.
D:Day32.10 A concept of  God is not necessary. False concepts of God, however, are
D:Day32.11  any or all of the example lives that have come as revelations of who  God is, understand that those lives were not separate from God.
D:Day32.12 Yet to believe that  God is everyone can still make you feel as if you are not God. How
D:Day32.13 Whether  God is seen as Creator or Supreme Being, God is still seen as the All
D:Day32.13 Whether God is seen as Creator or Supreme Being,  God is still seen as the All Powerful. While God is seen as the All
D:Day32.13  or Supreme Being, God is still seen as the All Powerful. While  God is seen as the All Powerful, man is disenfranchised. Even while
D:Day32.13  God is seen as the All Powerful, man is disenfranchised. Even while  God is perhaps seen in all things, or as the spirit by which all that
D:Day32.13  seen in all things, or as the spirit by which all that lives, lives,  God is still seen as having what man has not. The list of what one
D:Day32.14  to get across. That man and God are one. Not only is man God. But  God is man and woman and child. God is.
D:Day32.14  are one. Not only is man God. But God is man and woman and child.  God is.
D:Day32.19 Would this answer your questions concerning how  God is both different and the same? Would this answer your questions
D:Day32.20  God is the being and the relationship. You are capable of all the
D:Day32.20  capable of all the power of God's being but you are powerful only as  God is powerful—in relationship. Because God is in relationship
D:Day32.20  you are powerful only as God is powerful—in relationship. Because  God is in relationship with everything, God is All Powerful. Because
D:Day32.20 —in relationship. Because God is in relationship with everything,  God is All Powerful. Because you are in a state of limited
D:Day32.20  As you embrace holy relationship you can become powerful as  God is powerful.
D:Day35.3  in being and different in relationship, relationship is also God.  God is the relationship of everything to everything.
D:Day35.4  realizing that your being is God, that others are one with you, that  God is the relationship of everything to everything, or that you are
D:Day35.4  relationship of everything to God. Everything that is shared with  God is shared with all because God is in relationship with
D:Day35.4  God. Everything that is shared with God is shared with all because  God is in relationship with everything. It has been said that when
D:Day36.11  Father, Son, and Holy Spirit in relationship. Without relationship,  God is simply all—being. Without relationship, what is not God is
D:Day36.11  God is simply all—being. Without relationship, what is not  God is simply being—simply existing at the opposite end of the
D:Day36.15  is to be one in being with God. Accept this, for this is what  God is and what you are. This is being. To be one in being with God
D:Day36.17  and God also is given form, or is, in other words, differentiated.  God is All in All. And God is also All in One and All in Many. God is
D:Day36.17  form, or is, in other words, differentiated. God is All in All. And  God is also All in One and All in Many. God is still the Creator of
D:Day36.17  God is All in All. And God is also All in One and All in Many.  God is still the Creator of All, but God is also now the Creator of
D:Day36.17  All in One and All in Many. God is still the Creator of All, but  God is also now the Creator of One, the Creator of the experience of
D:Day36.17  the experience and the experiencer of life. Through differentiation,  God is you as you are God. God retains oneness of being and also
D:Day37.2  a supreme and separate being, why should it be difficult to see that  God is being? This is not much different than saying that the most
D:Day37.2  you is that you are being—and that the most basic truth about  God is that God is being. Yet the fact that you are being does not
D:Day37.2  that you are being—and that the most basic truth about God is that  God is being. Yet the fact that you are being does not define who you
D:Day37.6  of God. The way of heart and mind, body and soul, heaven and earth.  God is being in unity and relationship. So are you.
D:Day37.7  for distinction from God as if distinction means separation—as if  God is a separate being. If this were all this idea was, it would not
D:Day37.9  as intent as you have been on your idea of a separate and particular  God is that you want to believe that there is a compassionate being
D:Day37.9  everything, looking out for you, there to help when you are in need.  God is all compassionate being everywhere—not one being of
D:Day37.13  you are being, however, (and note here that you are being, and  God is being, and that it is not being said that either you or God
D:Day37.21  God is being in unity and relationship with everything. Thus God
D:Day37.21  being in unity and relationship with everything. Thus God knows you.  God is one in being with you because you are one aspect of
D:Day37.21  everything. As one being in unity and relationship with everything  God is one with every thought and every feeling. God is one with
D:Day37.21  with everything God is one with every thought and every feeling.  God is one with every creation. God is all knowing. God is, in short,
D:Day37.21  every thought and every feeling. God is one with every creation.  God is all knowing. God is, in short, the collective consciousness
D:Day37.21  every feeling. God is one with every creation. God is all knowing.  God is, in short, the collective consciousness and the collective
D:Day37.23  God just as Jesus was and is all of God. In union and relationship,  God is all and God is differentiated.
D:Day37.23  was and is all of God. In union and relationship, God is all and  God is differentiated.
D:Day37.27  being. The “part” of God you have not been being is union. Remember,  God is being in union and relationship. This is what God is. God is
D:Day37.27  Remember, God is being in union and relationship. This is what  God is. God is being. God is relationship. God is union.
D:Day37.27  God is being in union and relationship. This is what God is.  God is being. God is relationship. God is union.
D:Day37.27  being in union and relationship. This is what God is. God is being.  God is relationship. God is union.
D:Day37.27  This is what God is. God is being. God is relationship.  God is union.
D:Day40.13  It is not man. It is the relationship that allows the awareness that  God is everything. It has been called wisdom, Sophia, spirit. It is
D:Day40.14  and the attributeless love. This is why it can be rightly said that  God is Love and Love is God. But I am also an extension of love, just
D:Day40.21  God is a relationship with love. This relationship with love is all

Tx:7.68  with God and are therefore depriving yourselves of joy. This is not  God's Will but yours. If your will is out of accord with God's, you
Tx:7.68  is not God's Will but yours. If your will is out of accord with  God's, you are willing without meaning. Yet because God's Will is
Tx:7.68  of accord with God's, you are willing without meaning. Yet because  God's Will is unchangeable, no real conflict of will is possible.
Tx:7.69 Creation, not separation, is your will because it is  God's, and nothing that opposes this means anything at all. Being a
Tx:7.73 You do not need  God's blessing since that you have forever, but you do need
Tx:7.93  wish to contain God but to extend His Being. The extension of  God's Being is the Soul's only function. Its fullness cannot be
Tx:7.96  you the means for keeping it, and you have done so. Disobeying  God's Will is meaningful only to the insane. In truth it is
Tx:7.96  In truth it is impossible. Your self-fullness is as boundless as  God's. Like His, it extends forever and in perfect peace. Its
Tx:7.102  It is not obvious to you. You believe that doing the opposite of  God's Will can be better for you. You also believe that it is
Tx:7.102  you. You also believe that it is possible to do the opposite of  God's Will. Therefore, you believe that an impossible choice is open
Tx:7.105  do not have to decide anything. Everything has been given you by  God's decision. That is His Will, and you can not undo it. Even
Tx:7.106  This means that you are confused about what you are. If you are  God's Will and do not accept His Will[, you can only be not
Tx:7.107  The world goes against your nature, being out of accord with  God's laws. The world perceives orders of difficulty in everything.
Tx:7.113  cannot establish your reality any more than you can establish  God's. But you can know both. Being is known by sharing. Because
Tx:8.10  because that is what you are. The lesson is that your will and  God's cannot be out of accord, because they are one. This is the
Tx:8.11 The ego wants to teach you that you want to oppose  God's Will. This unnatural lesson cannot be learned, but the
Tx:8.13  God. Yet He cannot conceive of God without you, because it is not  God's Will to be without you. When you have learned that your will
Tx:8.13  Will to be without you. When you have learned that your will is  God's, you could no more will to be without Him than He could will to
Tx:8.15  except all power and glory can the Holy Spirit appeal to restore  God's Kingdom? His appeal, then, is merely to what the Kingdom is
Tx:8.17  wish for other experience will block its accomplishment, because  God's Will cannot be forced upon you, being an experience of total
Tx:8.17  God gave Him to you. Only His teaching will release your will to  God's, uniting it with His power and glory and establishing them as
Tx:8.24  be powerless to do this, because this is your power. Glory is  God's gift to you, because that is what He is. See this glory
Tx:8.25 If  God's Will for you is complete peace and joy, unless you experience
Tx:8.27  yourself and of Him Who sent me to you. You were in darkness until  God's Will was done completely by any part of the Sonship. When
Tx:8.31  oppose yours without competing with it and thereby violating  God's Will for you.
Tx:8.32  you can choose to listen to my teaching. How else can it be, if  God's Kingdom is freedom? Freedom cannot be learned by tyranny of
Tx:8.32  be learned by tyranny of any kind, and the perfect equality of all  God's Sons cannot be recognized through the dominion of one will over
Tx:8.32  cannot be recognized through the dominion of one will over another.  God's Sons are equal in will, all being the Will of their Father.
Tx:8.34 Freedom is the only gift you can offer to  God's Sons, being an acknowledgment of what they are and what He
Tx:8.38  God's Oneness and ours are not separate, because His Oneness
Tx:8.39  He gave me] this confidence for both of us and all of us. I bring  God's peace back to all His Children, because I received it of Him
Tx:8.39  against our united wills, because nothing can prevail against  God's. Would you know the Will of God for you? Ask it of me who
Tx:8.41  only illusions of another direction can obscure the one for which  God's Voice speaks in all of us. Never accord the ego the power to
Tx:8.42  they too can lay aside their weakness and add their strength to us.  God's welcome waits for us all, and He will welcome us as I am
Tx:8.44 Listen to the story of the prodigal son, and learn what  God's treasure is and yours: This son of a loving father left his
Tx:8.46  There can be no question of its worth because its value lies in  God's sharing Himself with it and establishing its value forever.
Tx:8.47 Your function is to add to  God's treasure by creating yours. His Will to you is His Will
Tx:8.48  think you are unwilling to will with God, you are not thinking.  God's Will is thought. It cannot be contradicted by thought. God
Tx:8.48  their thought is so powerful that they can even imprison the mind of  God's Son if they so choose. This choice does make the Son's
Tx:8.49  from each other we cannot function at all. The whole power of  God's Son lies in all of us, but not in any of us alone. God would
Tx:8.50  You do not understand this for a very simple reason. You who are  God's own treasure do not regard yourselves as valuable. Given this
Tx:8.55  lesson in communion, which has value until communion is. This is  God's way of making unlimited what you have limited. The Holy Spirit
Tx:8.65  promotes depression instead of joy, you cannot be listening to  God's joyous Teacher, and you must be learning amiss. To see a body
Tx:8.67 Joy is unified purpose, and unified purpose is only  God's. When yours is unified, it is His. Interfere with His
Tx:8.87  not my name alone, for ours is a shared identification. The name of  God's Son is one, and you are enjoined to do the works of love,
Tx:8.94  of yourselves, the Holy Spirit must remind you that this is not  God's Will because it is not yours. There is no difference
Tx:8.94  it is not yours. There is no difference between your will and  God's. If you did not have split minds, you would recognize that
Tx:8.96  safety. Your will is your salvation because it is the same as  God's. The separation is nothing more than the belief that it is
Tx:8.97 No mind can believe that its will is stronger than  God's. If, then, a mind believes that its will is different from
Tx:8.99  himself. This recognition is the recognition that his will and  God's are one. In the presence of truth, there are no unbelievers
Tx:8.105 Remember, then, that  God's Will is already possible and nothing else will ever be.
Tx:8.112  you alone? Could you hear His answer except as He answers all of  God's Sons? Hear of your brother what you would have me hear of you,
Tx:8.113  me through you. If you would hear me, hear my brothers in whom  God's Voice speaks. The answer to all prayers lies in them. You
Tx:8.114  This is not going beyond yourself but toward yourself. Hear only  God's Answer in His Sons, and you are answered.
Tx:8.117  to get much for little is to believe that you can bargain with God.  God's laws are always fair and perfectly consistent. By giving
Tx:8.119 Because I will to know myself, I see you as  God's Son and my brother.
Tx:9.20 The ego's plan for forgiveness is far more widely used than  God's. This is because it is undertaken by unhealed healers and is
Tx:9.34  as He did, and your dissociation will not alter this. Neither  God's light nor yours is dimmed because you do not see. Because the
Tx:9.35  the witnesses to your reality, as you were created witnesses to  God's. Yet when the Sonship comes together and accepts its oneness,
Tx:9.37  This cannot mean anything to you, however, until you remember  God's open arms and finally know His open mind. Like Him, you are
Tx:9.37  world has to offer. Everything else would be totally meaningless.  God's meaning is incomplete without you, and you are incomplete
Tx:9.38  God's Will is your salvation. Would He not have given you the means
Tx:9.51 The ego is immobilized in the presence of  God's grandeur, because His grandeur establishes your freedom.
Tx:9.53  despair, and therefore you cannot want the ego. Your grandeur is  God's answer to the ego because it is true. Littleness and grandeur
Tx:9.57  means that you believe your evaluation of yourself is truer than  God's.
Tx:9.58 Yet if truth is indivisible, your evaluation of yourself must be  God's. You did not establish your value, and it needs no defense.
Tx:9.59  the world can take this responsibility from you. You can violate  God's laws in your imagination, but you cannot escape from them.
Tx:9.60  except the ephemeral, and how can the ephemeral be real if you are  God's only creation, and He created you eternal? Your holy will
Tx:9.71  what you are. Your denial of reality precludes the acceptance of  God's gift, because you have accepted something else in its place.
Tx:9.72  you must have forgotten what you are. And if your reality is  God's, when you attack you are not remembering Him. This is not
Tx:9.79  created because of the calm knowledge that each one is part of Him.  God's Son knows no idols, but he does know his Father. Health in
Tx:9.79  become sick, but my value of you can heal you because the value of  God's Son is one. When I said, “My peace I give unto you,” I meant
Tx:9.81 I do not bring  God's message with deception, and you will learn this as you learn
Tx:9.84  him, you will bow down and worship him because he was made as  God's replacement. He is the belief that you can choose which god
Tx:9.85  and you are afraid of him, because he cannot be reconciled with  God's Will. If you attack him, you will make him real to you. But if
Tx:9.87  the split is the sign that you have removed part of your mind from  God's Will, and this means it is out of control. To be out of control
Tx:9.88  God's laws will keep your minds at peace, because peace is His Will,
Tx:9.96 Sickness and death entered the Mind of  God's Son against His Will. The “attack on God” made His Son think
Tx:9.103  waits for his return, for it was created as the dwelling place of  God's Son. You are not at home anywhere else or in any other
Tx:10.2  of perceived conflict, because the ego was made out of the wish of  God's Son to father Him. The ego, then, is nothing more than a
Tx:10.3  by projection, but God has created by extension. The cornerstone of  God's creation is you, for His thought system is light. Remember
Tx:10.5  His Son to be and where he is. In whatever part of the Mind of  God's Son you restore this reality, you restore it to yourself. For
Tx:10.7  was your creation, without you there would be an empty place in  God's Mind. Extension cannot be blocked, and it has no voids. It
Tx:10.10  there if it was given you because God did not will to be alone?  God's Mind cannot be lessened. It can only be increased, and
Tx:10.10  limit, and what it creates is not limited. To give without limit is  God's Will for you because only this can bring you the joy which is
Tx:10.12  is not strange when you realize that to deny is to “not know.”  God's Will is that you are His Son. By denying this, you denied your
Tx:10.12  and therefore do not know what it is. The reason you must ask what  God's Will is in everything is merely because it is yours. You do
Tx:10.12  but the Holy Spirit remembers it for you. Ask Him, therefore, what  God's Will is for you, and He will tell you yours. It cannot be too
Tx:10.13 The projection of the ego makes it appear as if  God's Will is outside yourself and therefore not yours. In this
Tx:10.13  therefore not yours. In this interpretation, it is possible for  God's Will and yours to conflict. God then may seem to demand of
Tx:10.13  is His Will for His Son and His Son's will for himself.  God's Son cannot will death for himself because His Father is Life
Tx:10.14  you cannot change this because it is immutable. It is immutable by  God's Will and yours, for otherwise His Will would not have been
Tx:10.14  His Will would not have been extended. You are afraid to know  God's Will because you believe it is not yours. This belief is your
Tx:10.15  it is your will to be like Him, Whose Will it is that it be so.  God's Will is that His Son be one, and united with Him in His
Tx:10.17  from your brother or in your own mind, teaches you that you are  God's Son. In every hurtful thought you hold, wherever you perceive
Tx:10.17  thought you hold, wherever you perceive it, lies the denial of  God's Fatherhood and your Sonship.
Tx:10.18  be to fail to understand. You can heal only yourself, for only  God's Son needs healing. He needs it because he does not understand
Tx:10.23  yourselves, you could never suffer in any way, for that is not  God's Will for His Son. Pain is not of Him, for He knows no attack
Tx:10.24  God's Son is indeed in need of comfort, for he knows not what he
Tx:10.26  abide with you on the way. But the dark journey is not the way of  God's Son. Walk in light, and do not see the dark companions, for
Tx:10.28  by the dark comforters, and never let them enter the Mind of  God's Son, for they have no place in His temple. When you are tempted
Tx:10.29 Only  God's Comforter can comfort you. In the quiet of His temple, He
Tx:10.29  for He Himself dwells there and abides in peace. You cannot enter  God's Presence with the dark companions beside you, but you also
Tx:10.31  that the Sonship is your salvation, for the Sonship is your Soul. As  God's creation, it is yours, and belonging to you, it is His. Your
Tx:10.32  the Father without believing that the Father has denied him?  God's laws hold only for your protection, and they never hold in
Tx:10.35  and as strong an ego defense as blaming others. You cannot enter  God's Presence if you attack His Son. When His Son lifts his voice
Tx:10.36 Christ is at  God's altar, waiting to welcome His Son. But come wholly without
Tx:10.37 At  God's altar Christ waits for the restoration of Himself in you. God
Tx:10.50 If the ego's goal of autonomy could be accomplished,  God's purpose could be defeated, and this is impossible. Only by
Tx:10.50  According to the ego's teaching, its goal can be accomplished, and  God's purpose can not. According to the Holy Spirit's teaching,
Tx:10.50  purpose can not. According to the Holy Spirit's teaching, only  God's purpose is accomplishment, and it is already accomplished.
Tx:10.51  its goal is happiness. But it is given you to know that  God's function is yours and happiness cannot be found apart from
Tx:10.52 Upheld by fear, this is what the ego would have you believe. Yet  God's Son is not insane and cannot believe it. Let him but
Tx:10.57  what He created. Their silence is the sign that they have beheld  God's Son, and in the Presence of Christ they need demonstrate
Tx:10.61  to limit what you see by narrow little beliefs which are unworthy of  God's Son. For until Christ comes into His own, the Son of God will
Tx:10.62  the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, for such is the nature of  God's Son as His Father created him.
Tx:10.63 Do not underestimate the power of the devotion of  God's Son nor the power of the god he worships over him. For he
Tx:10.65  not find peace until you have removed the nails from the hands of  God's Son and taken the last thorn from his forehead. The love of God
Tx:10.65  that I live in you. For the undoing of the crucifixion of  God's Son is the work of the redemption, in which everyone has a part
Tx:10.66  a crown of thorns upon your own head. Yet you cannot crucify  God's Son, for the Will of God cannot die. His Son has been
Tx:10.68  God's Son is saved. Bring only this awareness to the Sonship, and
Tx:10.68  mine. There is no order of difficulty in miracles because all of  God's Sons are of equal value, and their equality is their oneness.
Tx:10.83  Believe that the truth is in me, for I know that it is in you.  God's Sons have nothing which they do not share. Ask for truth of any
Tx:10.83  answer in him, to give to anyone who asks it of him. Ask anything of  God's Son and His Father will answer you, for Christ is not deceived
Tx:10.84  Thought of His Father by which He was created. Be not deceived in  God's Son, for thereby you must be deceived in yourself. And being
Tx:10.85  simple request. What problems will not disappear in the presence of  God's answer? Ask, then, to learn of the reality of your brother
Tx:10.86  together as we live together and love together. Be not deceived in  God's Son, for he is one with himself and one with his Father. Love
Tx:10.87  offends you, you are offended in yourself and are condemning  God's Son, whom God condemneth not. Let the Holy Spirit remove all
Tx:10.87  whom God condemneth not. Let the Holy Spirit remove all offense of  God's Son against himself and perceive no one but through His
Tx:11.6  can you be helped. Deny him your help, and you will not perceive  God's answer to you. The Holy Spirit does not need your help in
Tx:11.7 How simple, then, is  God's plan for salvation. There is but one response to reality, for
Tx:11.8  one need in yourself, you will be healed. For you will recognize  God's answer as you want it to be, and if you want it in truth, it
Tx:11.15  way to remember God. For you forgot your brothers with Him, and  God's answer to your forgetting is but the way to remember.
Tx:11.30 If only the loving thoughts of  God's Son are the world's reality, the real world must be in his
Tx:11.39  He sets before you He will give you. For He will never deceive  God's Son, whom He loves with the love of the Father.
Tx:11.52  is your will to learn aright, and nothing can oppose the Will of  God's Son. His learning is as unlimited as he is.
Tx:11.60  of knowledge. At the altar of God, the holy perception of  God's Son becomes so enlightened that light streams into it, and the
Tx:11.60  becomes so enlightened that light streams into it, and the Spirit of  God's Son shines in the Mind of the Father and becomes one with it.
Tx:11.71  have seen reality, for the reality of your mind is the loveliest of  God's creations. Coming only from God, its power and grandeur could
Tx:11.78  God's Son is as safe as his Father, for the Son knows his Father's
Tx:11.79  be seen is what the Holy Spirit sees. The definition of reality is  God's, not yours. He created it, and He knows what it is. You who
Tx:11.82  you have tried to interpose between your awareness and truth.  God's Son can be seen because his vision is shared. The Holy Spirit
Tx:11.83  is a thing of despair, for it can never be. And you who share  God's Being with Him could never be content without reality. What God
Tx:11.86 The acceptance of guilt into the Mind of  God's Son was the beginning of the separation, as the acceptance of
Tx:11.87  would be salvation, and this is the ego's interpretation, not  God's. Only the world of guilt could demand this, for only the guilty
Tx:11.88 This world is a picture of the crucifixion of  God's Son. And until you realize that God's Son cannot be
Tx:11.88  picture of the crucifixion of God's Son. And until you realize that  God's Son cannot be crucified, this is the world you will see. Yet
Tx:11.88  Yet you will not realize this until you accept the eternal fact that  God's Son is not guilty. He deserves only love because he has
Tx:11.89  Christ from your sight, for it is the denial of the blamelessness of  God's Son.
Tx:11.90  never was and can never be. Without guilt the ego has no life, and  God's Son is without guilt. As you look upon yourselves and judge
Tx:11.93  now, and the brightness of his purity shines untouched forever in  God's Mind. God's Son will always be as he was created. Deny your
Tx:11.93  the brightness of his purity shines untouched forever in God's Mind.  God's Son will always be as he was created. Deny your world and
Tx:11.94  for yourselves, you will realize that there is no guilt in  God's Son. And only as you look upon him as guiltless can you
Tx:11.94  only yourself, and by so doing, you cannot know that you are  God's Son. You have denied the condition of his Being, which is his
Tx:11.95  to be without him. And so it has always been. Let the holiness of  God's Son shine away the cloud of guilt that darkens your mind, and
Tx:11.96  continuity is guaranteed. Yet the guarantee of your continuity is  God's, not the ego's. And immortality is the opposite of time, for
Tx:11.97  the guiltlessness of the Son of God as yours is therefore  God's way of reminding you of His Son and what he is in truth. For
Tx:11.99  without guilt, attack is impossible. You, then, are saved because  God's Son is guiltless. And being wholly pure, you are invulnerable.
Tx:12.3  that dark and secret place is the realization that you have betrayed  God's Son by condemning him to death. You do not even suspect this
Tx:12.3  urge is so intense that nothing short of the crucifixion of  God's Son can ultimately satisfy it. It does not know who the Son of
Tx:12.5  of truth, let us recognize that you believe you have crucified  God's Son. You have not admitted to this “terrible” secret because
Tx:12.6  of the ego. When it was confronted with the real guiltlessness of  God's Son, it did attempt to kill him, and the reason it gave was
Tx:12.12  You would be willing to look even upon your savage wish to kill  God's Son if you did not believe that it saves you from love. For
Tx:12.14  insane belief system because you think you would be helpless in  God's Presence, and you would save yourself from His love because
Tx:12.16  you offer it can heal it, for here is the real crucifixion of  God's Son.
Tx:12.18  welcome it, and it will be yours. For grandeur is the right of  God's Son, and no illusions can satisfy him or save him from what
Tx:12.20  of Him what only such a father could give. And the peace of  God's Son was shattered, for he no longer understood his Father. He
Tx:12.43  what He is, He knows His Father. Beyond your darkest dreams, He sees  God's guiltless Son within you, shining in perfect radiance, which is
Tx:12.47  without condemnation upon the present. For the cloud which obscures  God's Son to you is the past, and if you would have it past and
Tx:12.52  them is your continuity, unbroken because it is wholly shared.  God's guiltless Son is only light. There is no darkness in him
Tx:12.52  light to the Creator of light. The holy light that shines forth from  God's Son is the witness that his light is of his Father.
Tx:12.57  name He has given for you and given you the gifts He gave.  God's Son is still as loving as his Father. Continuous with his
Tx:12.65 It is  God's Will that nothing touch His Son except Himself, and nothing
Tx:12.71  for His sight is ever on the journey's end which is His goal.  God's Son is not a traveler through outer worlds. However holy his
Tx:12.76  His Spirit. The sound of it will banish sorrow from the Mind of  God's most holy Son, where it cannot abide. Healing in time is
Tx:13.6  into the One Reality of God. The only miracle that ever was is  God's most holy Son, created in the One Reality that is his Father.
Tx:13.8  banner of His teaching, and as we grow in strength, the power of  God's Son will move in us, and we will leave no one untouched and no
Tx:13.29  vision, He would show you the perfect purity that is forever within  God's Son.
Tx:13.30 You cannot enter into real relationships with any of  God's Sons unless you love them all and equally. Love is not
Tx:13.39  you choose to listen to, whatever strange thoughts may occur to you,  God's Will is done. You will find the peace in which He has
Tx:13.43  Learn that even the darkest nightmare that disturbed the Mind of  God's sleeping Son holds no power over him. He will learn the
Tx:13.44 Can  God's Son lose himself in dreams when God has placed within him the
Tx:13.51  which you made would be forever dark. The thoughts which the Mind of  God's Son projects have all the power that he gives to them. The
Tx:13.67  by making it manifest and sharing it. Let me bring peace to  God's Son from his Father.
Tx:13.70 No penalty is ever asked of  God's Son except by himself and of himself. Every chance given
Tx:13.73  make decisions by yourself or for yourself alone. No thought of  God's Son can be separate or isolated in its effects. Every
Tx:13.76 Would you deny the truth of  God's decision and place your pitiful appraisal of yourself in place
Tx:13.76  of His calm and unswerving value of His Son? Nothing can shake  God's conviction of the perfect purity of everything that He created,
Tx:13.79 Seek not to appraise the worth of  God's Son, whom He created holy, for to do so is to evaluate his
Tx:13.79  crime, which no one in this world or Heaven could possibly commit.  God's Spirit teaches only that the “sin” of self-replacement on the
Tx:13.89  your guilt arises from your failure to fulfill your function in  God's Mind with all of yours. Can you escape this guilt by failing
Tx:14.5  Would you have all of it transformed into a radiant message of  God's Love, to share with all the lonely ones who denied Him with
Tx:14.8 The inheritance of the Kingdom is the right of  God's Son, given him in his creation. Do not try to steal it from
Tx:14.11  most holy lesson, which seeks but to restore what is the right of  God's creation. From everyone whom you accord release from guilt, you
Tx:14.23  the light come streaming through. There are no hidden chambers in  God's temple. Its gates are open wide to greet His Son. No one can
Tx:14.35  with what you are. You cannot join with anything except reality.  God's glory and His Son's belong to you in truth. They have no
Tx:14.42  of the images of other gods must dim the mirror that would hold  God's reflection in it. Earth can reflect Heaven or hell; God or the
Tx:14.61  Child of light by Him to Whom God gave it. This lesson shines with  God's glory, for in it lies His power, which He shares so gladly with
Tx:14.63  in your perfect peace, then you can be sure that you have learned  God's lesson and not yours. Unless all this is true, there are dark
Tx:14.63  perfect peace means but one thing: you think you do not will for  God's Son what His Father wills for him. Every dark lesson teaches
Tx:14.67  on which you can depend for miracles has been provided for you.  God's Son can make no needs His Father will not meet if he but turn
Tx:14.71  God's Son will always be indivisible. As we are held as one in God,
Tx:14.71  As we are held as one in God, so do we learn as one in Him.  God's Teacher is as like to His Creator as is His Son, and through
Tx:15.1  that is what time is for—to learn just that and nothing more.  God's Teacher cannot be satisfied with His teaching until it
Tx:15.15  it to the Holy Spirit to use. He needs but very little to restore  God's whole power to you. He Who transcends time for you understands
Tx:15.15  not in time but in eternity. There never was an instant in which  God's Son could lose his purity. His changeless state is beyond time,
Tx:15.15  at all. For, caught in the single instant of the eternal sanctity of  God's creation, it is transformed into forever. Give the eternal
Tx:15.17  Teacher He has appointed to translate time into eternity. Blessed is  God's Teacher, Whose joy it is to teach God's holy Son his holiness.
Tx:15.17  into eternity. Blessed is God's Teacher, Whose joy it is to teach  God's holy Son his holiness. His joy is not contained in time. His
Tx:15.17  is for you because His joy is yours. Through Him you stand before  God's altar, where He gently translates hell into Heaven. For it is
Tx:15.21  as not separate. Fear not that you will not be given help in this.  God's Teacher and His lesson will support your strength. It is only
Tx:15.34  Forget not that his call is yours, and answer him with me.  God's power is forever on the side of His host, for it protects only
Tx:15.36  every plan that you have made for your salvation in exchange for  God's. His will content you, and there is nothing else that can bring
Tx:15.57  a limited gift to you. In the holy instant, we share our faith in  God's Son because we recognize together that he is wholly worthy of
Tx:15.59  for love, your call remains as strong. Nor do you think that, by  God's answer to him, your hope of answer is diminished. On the
Tx:15.78  invited and made welcome. And you understand that your completion is  God's, Whose only need is to have you be complete. For your
Tx:15.80  all that there is by desiring that it be all that there is.  God's Son has such great need of your willingness to strive for this
Tx:15.81  never leave you and what you can never leave. The loneliness of  God's Son is the loneliness of his Father. Refuse not the awareness
Tx:15.83 The Holy Spirit is  God's attempt to free you of what He does not understand. And because
Tx:15.90  not Atonement in further separation. And limit not your vision of  God's Son to what interferes with his release and what the Holy
Tx:15.91  interference in communication, and your thoughts will be as free as  God's. As you let the Holy Spirit teach you how to use the body
Tx:16.18 Do not interpret against  God's Love, for you have many witnesses which speak of it so clearly
Tx:16.25  He is both God and you, as you are God and Him together. For  God's answer to the separation added more to you than you tried to
Tx:16.26  to help you learn. Their gratitude has joined with yours and  God's to strengthen your faith in what you taught. For what you
Tx:16.42 If special relationships of any kind would hinder  God's completion, can they have value to you? What would interfere
Tx:16.42  God must interfere with you. Only in time does interference in  God's completion seem to be possible. The bridge that He would carry
Tx:16.77  God has given you is truly given and will be truly received. For  God's gifts have no reality apart from your receiving them. Your
Tx:17.9  taken by anything, is still the greatest accomplishment of all in  God's plan of Atonement. All else is learned, but this is given,
Tx:17.9  blessing of your forgiveness on it. And with this final blessing of  God's Son upon himself, the real perception, born of the new
Tx:17.12  leaf becomes a thing of wonder and a blade of grass a sign of  God's perfection. From the forgiven world, the Son of God is lifted
Tx:17.22  the spark before you to light your way and make it clear to you.  God's Son is one. Whom God has joined as one, the ego cannot break
Tx:17.28  is clearly not to make happy. But the holy relationship shares  God's purpose, rather than aiming to make a substitute for it. Every
Tx:17.28  Every special relationship which you have made is a substitute for  God's Will and glorifies yours instead of His because of the delusion
Tx:17.29  was the ego's answer to the creation of the Holy Spirit, Who was  God's answer to the separation. For although the ego did not
Tx:17.30  have all your holy relationships been carefully preserved to serve  God's purpose for you.
Tx:18.9  and no substitute can keep you from each other. Your reality was  God's creation and has no substitute.
Tx:18.35  of your small willingness combined with the unlimited power of  God's Will. You have been wrong in thinking that it is needful to
Tx:18.36  to be ready to receive it. That is but to confuse your role with  God's. Atonement cannot come to those who think that they must
Tx:18.84  off and separate, which the Holy Spirit needs. The rest is fully in  God's keeping and needs no guide. Yet this wild and delusional
Tx:19.33  be beyond the hope of healing. For there would be a power beyond  God's, capable of making another will which could attack His Will and
Tx:19.33  give His Son a will apart from His and stronger. And each part of  God's fragmented creation would have a different will, opposed to His
Tx:19.42  a little. And that little is a limit you would place upon the whole.  God's Will is One, not many. It has no opposition, for there is none
Tx:19.68  if you would have its limitless power and use it for the Son of  God's release. It is not this you would be rid of, and having it you
Tx:19.107  death. So will we prepare together the way unto the resurrection of  God's Son and let him rise again to glad remembrance of his Father,
Tx:20.1  Let us not spend this holy week brooding on the crucifixion of  God's Son, but happily in the celebration of his release. For Easter
Tx:20.1  no meaning. But a risen Christ becomes the symbol of the Son of  God's forgiveness of himself; the sign he looks upon himself as
Tx:20.27  His Son holy and kept him so. In your brother is the light of  God's eternal promise of your immortality. See him as sinless, and
Tx:20.36  would fulfill. As that was given you, so will its fulfillment be.  God's guarantee will hold against all obstacles, for it rests on
Tx:20.37 In this world,  God's Son comes closest to himself in a holy relationship. There he
Tx:20.37  can anything be lost, and never lost forever. So do the parts of  God's Son gradually join in time, and with each joining is the end of
Tx:20.70  Why do you think the body is a better home, a safer shelter for  God's Son? Why would you rather look on it than on the truth? How can
Tx:21.21 This is the Son of  God's replacement for his will, a mad revolt against what must
Tx:21.53  God's plan for your salvation could not have been established without
Tx:21.54  God's plan is simple—never circular and never self-defeating. He
Tx:21.84  given only those who wish for constancy. The power of the Son of  God's desire remains the proof that he is wrong who sees himself as
Tx:21.88  give. For he does not desire it while he remains uncertain, and  God's giving must be incomplete unless it is received.
Tx:21.89 You who complete  God's Will and are His happiness, whose will is powerful as His, a
Tx:21.90 What is the holy instant but  God's appeal to you to recognize what He has given you? Here is the
Tx:22.8 What could be secret from  God's Will? Yet you believe that you have secrets. What could your
Tx:22.42  been given to everyone. For you are here to let it be received.  God's offer still is open, yet it waits acceptance. From you who have
Tx:22.61 Who can attack the Son of God and not attack his Father? How can  God's Son be weak and frail and easily destroyed unless his Father
Tx:23.5 Let us not let littleness lead  God's Son into temptation. His glory is beyond it, measureless and
Tx:23.48  indistinguishable from one another. So will they be to those who see  God's Son a body. For it is not the body that is like the Son's
Tx:23.49  the same can have no different function. Creation is the means for  God's extension, and what is His must be His Son's as well. Either
Tx:24.5  This takes many forms but always clashes with the reality of  God's creation and with the grandeur which He gave His Son. What else
Tx:24.22  What has been given him makes you complete, as it does him.  God's love gave you to him and him to you because He gave Himself.
Tx:24.27  Will of God. And thus it stands against yourself; your enemy, not  God's. So does it seem to split you off from God and make you
Tx:24.49  doubts about yourself may disappear before his holiness. See in him  God's creation. For in him, his Father waits for your acknowledgment
Tx:24.52 Forget not that the healing of  God's Son is all the world is for. That is the only purpose the
Tx:24.52  in all temptation to perceive what is not there and all belief  God's Son can suffer pain because he sees himself as he is not.
Tx:24.56  is sacrament and benediction unto you. His errors cannot withhold  God's blessing from himself nor you who see him truly. His mistakes
Tx:24.57  you to save from condemnation along with you. And both shall see  God's glory in His Son, whom you mistook as flesh and bound to laws
Tx:24.62  child of earth on whom such love is lavished? What is this parody of  God's creation that takes the place of yours? And where are they,
Tx:24.71  to offer to the “father” what he wants. Such is the travesty on  God's creation. For as His Son's creation gave Him joy and witness to
Tx:25.18 Accept  God's frame instead of yours, and you will see the masterpiece. Look
Tx:25.22  you may see as one what never has been separate nor apart from all  God's love as given equally.
Tx:25.23  offer it support. This is perception's form adapted to this world of  God's more basic law that love creates itself and nothing but
Tx:25.24  God's laws do not obtain directly to a world perception rules, for
Tx:25.33  purpose in his own creation that his joy might be increased and  God's along with his.
Tx:25.51 It cannot be the “sinner's” wish for death is just as strong as is  God's Will for life. Nor can the basis of a world He did not make be
Tx:25.59 What is dependable except  God's Love? And where does sanity abide except in Him? The One Who
Tx:25.59  show you this in the alternative He chose especially for you. It is  God's Will that you remember this and so emerge from deepest mourning
Tx:25.59  perfect joy. Accept the function that has been assigned to you in  God's Own plan to show His Sons that hell and Heaven are different,
Tx:25.61  is sanity restored. And on this single rock of truth can faith in  God's eternal saneness rest in perfect confidence and perfect peace.
Tx:25.62 Remember all temptation is but this—a mad belief that  God's insanity would make you sane and give you what you want. That
Tx:25.67 Vengeance is alien to  God's Mind because He knows of justice. To be just is to be fair
Tx:25.68  them dead with lightning bolts torn from the “fires” of Heaven by  God's own angry hand. They do believe that Heaven is hell and are
Tx:25.69  a messenger from hell sent from above in treachery and guile to work  God's vengeance on them in the guise of a deliverer and friend. What
Tx:25.72 In  God's own justice does He recognize all you deserve but understands
Tx:25.72  are not different. Because they are the same does mercy stand at  God's right hand and give the Son of God the power to forgive
Tx:25.75  And so the Holy Spirit's special function has been fulfilled.  God's Son has found a witness unto his sinlessness and not his sin.
Tx:25.77  vengeance in all forms. The world deceives, but it cannot replace  God's justice with a version of its own. For only love is just and
Tx:25.77  never fear that you in your unfairness will deprive yourself of what  God's justice has allotted you.
Tx:25.79  to receive it disappears and you are willing it be given you.  God's justice warrants gratitude, not fear. Nothing you give is lost
Tx:25.79  preserved [for you] in Heaven, where all of the treasures given to  God's Son are kept for him and offered anyone who but holds out his
Tx:25.84 Salvation cannot seek to help  God's Son be more unfair than he has sought to be. If miracles, the
Tx:25.88 What is  God's belongs to everyone and is his due.
Tx:26.4  of him and you. What greater sacrifice could be demanded than that  God's Son perceive himself without his Father? And his Father be
Tx:26.4  any sacrifice is asked of anyone. What witness to the wholeness of  God's Son is seen within a world of separate bodies, however much he
Tx:26.7  have power to make of them what God willed not they be. In Heaven  God's Son is not imprisoned in a body nor is sacrificed in solitude
Tx:26.8  him by One Who knows His gifts can never suffer sacrifice and loss.  God's justice rests in gentleness upon His Son and keeps him safe
Tx:26.13  hurt be large or little. He makes but one judgment—that to hurt  God's Son must be unfair and therefore is not so.
Tx:26.39  illusions have the power to keep you in a place of death, a vault  God's Son entered an instant, to be instantly restored unto His
Tx:26.45  one illusion as your only friend. This is no friendship worthy of  God's Son, nor one with which he could remain content. Yet God has
Tx:26.49  answer to the world of sickness which applies to all its forms.  God's answer is eternal, though it operates in time where it is
Tx:26.50  God's answer lies where the belief in sin must be, for only there can
Tx:26.51  must yield with equal ease to what God gave as answer to them all.  God's Will is One. And any wish that seems to go against His Will has
Tx:26.52  Heaven be opposed by its own opposite, as real as it. Then would  God's Will be split in two and all creation be subjected to the laws
Tx:26.53  and serves to bring the joy this world denies to every aspect of  God's Son where sin was thought to rule. Perhaps you do not see the
Tx:26.55 Yet is this wish in line with Heaven's state and not in opposition to  God's Will. Although it falls far short of giving you your full
Tx:26.61  can merely shift effects to other forms. And this is not release.  God's Son could never be content with less than full salvation and
Tx:26.61  whole idea of sacrifice. If loss in any form is possible, then is  God's Son made incomplete and not himself. [Nor will he know himself
Tx:27.1  is total. If it could occur at all, it would entail the whole of  God's creation and the Father with the sacrifice of his beloved Son.
Tx:27.3  or in need of anything, you but accuse your brother of attack upon  God's Son. You hold a picture of your crucifixion before his eyes
Tx:27.20  in your sight and his. And laughter will replace your sighs because  God's Son remembered that he is God's Son.
Tx:27.20  will replace your sighs because God's Son remembered that he is  God's Son.
Tx:27.22  yourself and who you are. What is the separation but a wish to take  God's function from Him and deny that it is His? Yet if it is not
Tx:27.57  God's Witness sees no witnesses against the body. Neither does He
Tx:27.73  nor ever will. Nothing more fearful than an idle dream has terrified  God's Son and made him think that he has lost his innocence, denied
Tx:28.16  and receives the gift that he has given Him. It is because he is  God's Son that he must also be a father who creates as God created
Tx:28.45  sand when it is recognized as being part of the completed picture of  God's Son! The forms the broken pieces seem to take mean nothing. For
Tx:28.46  there. Your willingness to let illusions go is all the Healer of  God's Son requires. He will place the miracle of healing where the
Tx:28.58  Whoever says, “There is no gap between my mind and yours” has kept  God's promise, not his tiny oath to be forever faithful unto death.
Tx:28.60  and the Son is not the will of either, who have promised to be one.  God's promise is a promise to Himself, and there is no one who
Tx:28.63  idly blamed for what it did not do. It serves to help the healing of  God's Son, and for this purpose it cannot be sick. It will not
Tx:28.66  lies not within itself alone. It is an ark of safety, resting on  God's promise that His Son is safe forever in Himself. What gap can
Tx:28.66  more in worth than the extent to which it can be used to liberate  God's Son unto his home. And with this holy purpose is it made a home
Tx:29.19 As “something” is the body asked to be  God's enemy, replacing what He is with littleness and limit and
Tx:29.23 There, in its place,  God's Witness has set forth the gentle way of kindness to God's Son.
Tx:29.23  its place, God's Witness has set forth the gentle way of kindness to  God's Son. Whom you forgive is given power to forgive you your
Tx:29.33  still abides in him, as it abides in you. Be very still and hear  God's Voice in him and let It tell you what his function is. He was
Tx:29.33  that you might be whole, for only the complete can be a part of  God's completion, Which created you.
Tx:29.35  God did not give in minds that can direct the hand to bless and lead  God's Son unto his Father's house. Would you not want to be a
Tx:29.39  not return. Where time has set an end is not where the eternal is.  God's Son can never change by what men made of him. He will be as he
Tx:29.40  it appears to be. Think not that you can set a goal unlike  God's purpose for you and establish it as changeless and eternal. You
Tx:29.42  and kill your body only if you think that it was made to crucify  God's Son. For even though it was a dream of death, you need not let
Tx:29.42  see it for. How lovely is the world whose purpose is forgiveness of  God's Son! How free from fear, how filled with blessing and with
Tx:29.45  Its form appears to be outside himself. Yet does he seek to kill  God's Son within and prove that he is victor over him. This is the
Tx:29.55  excluded and been kept apart? What hand could be held up to block  God's way? Whose voice could make demand He enter not? The
Tx:29.59  idol is a means for getting more. And it is this that is against  God's Will.
Tx:29.62 How can  God's Son awaken from the dream? It is a dream of judgment. So must
Tx:29.63  and the dream from which they come. Judgment is an injustice to  God's Son, and it is justice that who judges him will not escape
Tx:30.41  could it be possible it be denied. Your will to be complete is but  God's Will, and this is given you by being His. God knows not form.
Tx:30.42 Completion is the function of  God's Son. He has no need to seek for it at all. Beyond all idols
Tx:30.43  of you. And so there are no separate parts in what exists within  God's Mind. It is forever one, eternally united and at peace.
Tx:30.53  for they are not there. Yet this is equally forgotten in attack.  God's Son needs no defense against his dreams. His idols do not
Tx:30.56  illusions by his will and but restored to what he is. What could  God's plan for his salvation be, except a means to give him to
Tx:30.60 The final step is  God's because it is but God Who could create a perfect Son and share
Tx:30.61 The real world still falls short of this, for this is  God's own purpose—only His, and yet completely shared and perfectly
Tx:30.76  could not escape all guilt, but only some of it. You must forgive  God's Son entirely. Or you will keep an image of yourself that is
Tx:30.76  so there cannot be appearances which have replaced the truth about  God's Son.
Tx:30.78  God's Son is perfect, or he cannot be God's Son. Nor will you know
Tx:30.78 God's Son is perfect, or he cannot be  God's Son. Nor will you know him if you think he does not merit the
Tx:30.92  all miracles has not been given freedom to bestow His gifts upon  God's Son. When he is tempted, he denies reality. And he becomes the
Tx:31.7  surely from its source. The certain outcome of the lesson that  God's Son is guilty is the world you see. It is a world of terror
Tx:31.7  reflects the love of God is stronger still. And you will learn  God's Son is innocent and see another world.
Tx:31.8 The outcome of the lesson that  God's Son is guiltless is a world in which there is no fear and
Tx:31.8  wanted to be part of you. The soft, eternal calling of each part of  God's creation to the whole is heard throughout the world this second
Tx:31.9  indeed if he whom He created innocent could be a slave to guilt.  God's perfect Son remembers his creation. But in guilt he has
Tx:31.10  of God results as surely from the lesson that His Son is guilty as  God's love must be remembered when he learns his innocence. For hate
Tx:31.21 Because he is your equal in  God's love, you will be saved from all appearances and answer to the
Tx:31.92  but disappear as mists before the sun. A miracle has come to heal  God's Son and close the door upon his dreams of weakness, opening the
Tx:31.94  world and find so many chances to perceive another situation where  God's gift can once again be recognized as ours! And thus will all

W1:49.2  of your mind where stillness and peace reign forever. Try to hear  God's Voice call to you lovingly, reminding you that your Creator has

W1:53.6  my real thoughts to cast their beneficent light on what I see. Yet  God's way is sure. The images I have made cannot prevail against Him
W1:57.4  thoughts are the opposite of truth. I see the world as a prison for  God's Son. It must be, then, that the world is really a place where

W1:60.5 [49]  God's Voice speaks to me all through the day. There is not a moment
W1:60.5  speaks to me all through the day. There is not a moment in which  God's Voice ceases to call on my forgiveness to save me. There is not
W1:60.5  steadily on toward truth. There is nowhere else I can go, because  God's Voice is the only voice and the only guide that has been given
W1:60.6 [50] I am sustained by the Love of God. As I listen to  God's Voice, I am sustained by His Love. As I open my eyes, His love

W1:61.3 True humility requires that you accept today's idea because it is  God's Voice Which tells you it is true. This is a beginning step in
W1:63.6 Remember that  God's Son looks to you for his salvation. And who but your Self must
W1:64.8 Let me not forget my function. Let me not try to substitute mine for  God's. Let me forgive and be happy.
W1:69.2  We are trying to let the veil be lifted and see the tears of  God's Son disappear in the sunlight.
W1:69.8  your mind. Try to remember that you are at last joining your will to  God's. Try to keep the thought clearly in mind that what you
W1:70.5 Your purpose was to ensure that healing did not occur;  God's purpose was to ensure that it did. Today we practice realizing
W1:70.5  purpose was to ensure that it did. Today we practice realizing that  God's Will and ours are really the same in this.
W1:71.1  that the ego has set up a plan for salvation in opposition to  God's. It is this plan in which you believe. Since it is the opposite
W1:71.1  It is this plan in which you believe. Since it is the opposite of  God's, you also believe that to accept God's plan in place of the
W1:71.1  Since it is the opposite of God's, you also believe that to accept  God's plan in place of the ego's is to be damned. This sounds
W1:71.6  God's plan for salvation works simply because, by following His
W1:71.7  escape all this? Very simply. The idea for today is the answer. Only  God's plan for salvation will work. There can be no real conflict
W1:71.7  conflict about this, because there is no possible alternative to  God's plan that will save you. His is the only plan that is certain
W1:71.9  it contains two parts, each making equal contribution to the whole.  God's plan for your salvation will work, and other plans will not. Do
W1:71.9  to free yourself. They have led to depression and anger. But  God's plan will succeed. It will lead to release and joy.
W1:71.12  willingness to listen. This is enough to establish your claim to  God's answer.
W1:71.13 In the shorter practice periods tell yourself often that  God's plan for salvation, and only His, will work. Be alert to all
W1:71.14 Holding grievances is the opposite of  God's plan for salvation. And only His plan will work.
W1:72.1  have recognized that the ego's plan for salvation is the opposite of  God's, we have not yet emphasized that it is an active attack on His
W1:72.3  it is perhaps not so apparent why holding grievances is an attack on  God's plan for salvation. But let us consider the kinds of things
W1:72.8  stands at the center of your concept of yourself, you are attacking  God's plan for salvation and holding your grievances against Him and
W1:72.10  To see our Self as separate from the body is to end the attack on  God's plan for salvation and to accept it instead. And wherever His
W1:72.11 Our goal in the longer practice periods today is to become aware that  God's plan for salvation has already been accomplished in us. To
W1:72.11  with acceptance. As long as we attack it, we cannot understand what  God's plan for us is. We are therefore attacking what we do not
W1:72.11  Now we are going to try to lay judgment aside and ask what  God's plan for us is:
W1:72.14 We have attacked  God's plan for salvation without waiting to hear what it is. We have
W1:72.19 Holding grievances is an attack on  God's plan for salvation. Let me accept it instead. What is
W1:73.8  remember that you will salvation for yourself. You will to accept  God's plan because you share in it. You have no will that can really
W1:73.10 We will begin our longer practice periods with the recognition that  God's plan for salvation, and only His, is wholly in accord with your
W1:73.13 I will there be light. Let me behold the light that reflects  God's Will and mine.
W1:74.1  as the central thought toward which all our exercises are directed.  God's is the only will. When you have recognized this, you have
W1:74.4 There is no will but  God's. I cannot be in conflict.
W1:74.6 I am at peace. Nothing can disturb me. My will is  God's My will and God's are one. God wills peace for His Son.
W1:74.6 I am at peace. Nothing can disturb me. My will is God's My will and  God's are one. God wills peace for His Son.
W1:74.8 There is no will but  God's. These conflict thoughts are meaningless.
W1:74.10 There is no will but  God's. I share it with Him. My conflicts about _____ cannot be real.
W1:74.14 There is no will but  God's. I seek His peace today.
W1:76.9 Perhaps you even think that there are laws which set forth what is  God's and what is yours. Many “religions” have been based on this.
W1:76.10 There are no laws but  God's. Dismiss all foolish magical beliefs today and hold your mind
W1:76.10  there are no substitutes, and nothing is replaced by something else.  God's laws forever give and never take.
W1:76.12 Let us today open  God's channels to Him and let His Will extend through us to Him. Thus

W1:76.13 I am under no laws but  God's.
W1:78.4 Today we will attempt to see  God's Son. We will not let ourselves be blind to him; we will not
W1:78.6  has crossed your mind already. He will be the one of whom we ask  God's Son be shown to us. Through seeing him behind the grievances
W1:78.10  The Holy Spirit leans from him to you, seeing no separation in  God's Son. And what you see through Him will free you both.
W1:78.12  this throughout the day and take the role assigned to us as part of  God's salvation plan, and not our own. Temptation falls away when we
W1:80.1  Accept that fact, and you are ready to take your rightful place in  God's plan for salvation.
W1:80.2  your only problem, opening the way for the Holy Spirit to give you  God's answer. You have laid deception aside and seen the light of
W1:80.4  answer have been brought together. The problem must be gone because  God's answer cannot fail. Having recognized one, you have recognized
W1:86.2 [71] Only  God's plan for salvation will work. It is senseless for me to search
W1:86.2  about what it is. I will undertake no more idle seeking. Only  God's plan for salvation will work. And I will rejoice because His
W1:86.4  will save me from my perception of this. This is no exception in  God's plan for my salvation. Let me perceive this only in the light
W1:86.4  plan for my salvation. Let me perceive this only in the light of  God's plan for salvation.
W1:86.5 [72] Holding grievances is an attack on  God's plan for salvation. Holding grievances is an attempt to prove
W1:86.5  plan for salvation. Holding grievances is an attempt to prove that  God's plan for salvation will not work. Yet only His plan will work.
W1:86.5  defeat my own best interests in this insane way. I would accept  God's plan for salvation and be happy.
W1:87.5 [74] There is no will but  God's. I am safe today because there is no will but God's. I can
W1:87.5  is no will but God's. I am safe today because there is no will but  God's. I can become afraid only when I believe that there is another
W1:87.5  all this has not occurred. I am safe because there is no will but  God's.
W1:87.7 Let me perceive this in accordance with the Will of God. It is  God's Will you are His Son, [name], and mine as well. This is part
W1:87.7  Will you are His Son, [name], and mine as well. This is part of  God's Will for me, however I may see it.
W1:88.5 [76] I am under no laws but  God's. Here is the perfect statement of my freedom. I am under no
W1:88.5  Here is the perfect statement of my freedom. I am under no laws but  God's. I am constantly tempted to make up other laws and give them
W1:88.5  on me at all. I am perfectly free of the effects of all laws save  God's. And His are the laws of freedom.
W1:88.7  exist. I see only the laws of God at work in this. Let me allow  God's laws to work in this and not my own.
W1:89.2  miracles. I am entitled to miracles because I am under no laws but  God's. His laws release me from all grievances and replace them with
W1:89.5  to have all my illusions be replaced with truth according to  God's plan for my salvation. I would make no exceptions and no
W1:92.3 It is  God's strength in you that is the light in which you see, as it is
W1:93.3  idle thoughts are meaningless. These thoughts are not according to  God's Will. These weird beliefs He does not share with you. This is
W1:95.1  changed yourself already. You see yourself as a ridiculous parody on  God's creation—weak, vicious, ugly and sinful, miserable and beset
W1:95.16  are One Self, united and secure in light and joy and peace. You are  God's Son, One Self with one Creator and one goal—to bring
W1:96.7  that does not exist. Perhaps you hope it can. Yet would you have  God's plan for the release of His dear Son bring pain to him and fail
W1:98.9 I will accept my part in  God's plan for salvation.
W1:99.11  spots and shine through them to join them to the rest. It is  God's Will your mind be one with His. It is God's Will that He has
W1:99.11  them to the rest. It is God's Will your mind be one with His. It is  God's Will that He has but one Son. It is God's Will that His one Son
W1:99.11  be one with His. It is God's Will that He has but one Son. It is  God's Will that His one Son is you.
W1:99.18  the times you give five minutes to be shared with Him Who shares  God's plan with you. Remind yourself:
W1:100.1 Just as  God's Son completes his Father, so your part in it completes your
W1:100.2  God's Will for you is perfect happiness. Why should you choose to go
W1:100.3 You are indeed essential to  God's plan. Without your joy, His joy is incomplete. Without your
W1:100.4 You are indeed essential to  God's plan. Just as your light increases every light that shines in
W1:100.4  all minds to let their sorrows go and take their place beside you in  God's plan. God's messengers are joyous, and their joy heals sorrow
W1:100.4  let their sorrows go and take their place beside you in God's plan.  God's messengers are joyous, and their joy heals sorrow and despair.
W1:100.5  today. For if we do, we fail to take the part that is essential to  God's plan as well as to our vision. Sadness is the sign that you
W1:100.7 You are  God's messenger today. You bring His happiness to all you look upon,
W1:100.8  this is asked of you or anyone who wants to take his place among  God's messengers. Think what this means. You have indeed been wrong
W1:100.8  in your belief that sacrifice is asked. You but receive according to  God's plan and never lose or sacrifice or die.
W1:100.9 Now let us try to find that joy which proves to us and all the world  God's Will for us. It is your function that you find it here and that
W1:100.11  is Him you answer every time you tell yourself you are essential to  God's plan for the salvation of the world.
W1:101.1  Yet you must think it so while you believe that sin is real and that  God's Son can sin. If sin is real, then punishment is just and cannot
W1:101.5  which cherishes no lingering belief that you have made a devil of  God's Son.
W1:101.6  as often as we can today because it is the basis for today's idea.  God's Will for you is perfect happiness because there is no sin, and
W1:102.3  periods to exercises planned to help you reach the happiness  God's Will has placed in you. Here is your home, and here your safety
W1:102.4 Begin the longer practice periods today with this acceptance of  God's Will for you:
W1:102.5 I share  God's Will for happiness for me, and I accept it as my function
W1:102.6  fail to find it when you learn it is your choice and that you share  God's Will.
W1:102.7  function here is happiness. You have no need to be less loving to  God's Son than He Whose Love created him as loving as Himself.
W1:102.7  as your one function. And be sure that you are joining with  God's Will in doing this.
W1:104.2  and self-made gifts which we have placed upon the holy altar where  God's gifts belong. These are the gifts which are our own in truth.
W1:105.1  God's peace and joy are yours. Today we will accept them, knowing
W1:105.4 Accept  God's peace and joy, and you will learn a different way of looking at
W1:105.4  and joy, and you will learn a different way of looking at a gift.  God's gifts will never lessen when they are given away. They but
W1:105.4  thereby. As Heaven's peace and joy intensify when you accept them as  God's gift to you, so does the joy of your Creator grow when you
W1:105.6 Today accept  God's peace and joy as yours. Let Him complete Himself as He defines
W1:105.8 My brother, peace and joy I offer you, that I may have  God's peace and joy as mine.
W1:105.9 Thus you prepare yourself to recognize  God's gifts to you and let your mind be free of all that would
W1:105.12  with what He wills. And if a brother seems to tempt you to deny  God's gift to him, see it as but another chance to let yourself
W1:105.13 My brother, peace and joy I offer you, that I may have  God's peace and joy as mine.
W1:106.4 Today the promise of  God's Word is kept. Hear and be silent. He would speak to you. He
W1:106.5  you. He needs your voice to speak to them, for who could reach  God's Son except his Father calling through your Self?
W1:R3.12  it with you in the business of the day and make it holy, worthy of  God's Son, acceptable to God and to your Self.
W1:113.3  my One Self, Whose knowledge still remains Within my mind, I see  God's perfect plan For my salvation perfectly fulfilled.
W1:114.3 [98] I will accept my part in  God's plan for salvation. What can my function be but to accept the
W1:114.7 I will accept my part in  God's plan for salvation.
W1:115.3 [100] My part is essential to  God's plan for salvation. I am essential to the plan of God for the
W1:115.7 My part is essential to  God's plan for salvation.
W1:116.2 [101]  God's Will for me is perfect happiness. God's Will is perfect
W1:116.3 [102] I share  God's Will for happiness for me. I share my Father's Will for me,
W1:116.7 I share  God's Will for happiness for me.
W1:118.2 [105]  God's peace and joy are mine. Today I will accept God's peace and
W1:118.2 [105] God's peace and joy are mine. Today I will accept  God's peace and joy in glad exchange for all the substitutes which I
W1:118.3  and let me hear the mighty Voice of truth itself assure me that I am  God's perfect Son.
W1:119.2  my mind. I am mistaken when I think I can be hurt in any way. I am  God's Son whose Self rests safely in the Mind of God.
W1:120.3 [110] I am as God created me. I am  God's Son. Today I lay aside all sick illusions of myself and let my
W1:122.5  answer! Seek for it no more. You will not find another one instead.  God's plan for your salvation cannot change, nor can it fail. Be
W1:124.8  no rules nor special words to guide your meditation. We will trust  God's Voice to speak as He sees fit today, certain He will not fail.
W1:125.2 This world will change through you. No other means can save it, for  God's plan is simply this: the Son of God is free to save himself,
W1:125.2  him surely to his Father's house by his own will, forever free as  God's. He is not led by force, but only love. He is not judged, but
W1:125.3 In stillness we will hear  God's Voice today without intrusion of our petty thoughts, without
W1:127.3  mind that thinks of it as partial or in part. There is no love but  God's, and all of love is His. There is no other principle which
W1:127.10  they all made free along with us. Now are they all our brothers in  God's Love.
W1:127.12  you. For I would learn the joyous lesson that there is no love but  God's and yours and mine and everyone's.
W1:130.10  seeing that your eyes alone have ever seen before. And you will know  God's strength upheld as you made this choice.
W1:131.5  want. No one can fail to want this goal and reach it in the end.  God's Son cannot seek vainly, though he try to force delay, deceive
W1:131.9  his home forever? Let us not try longer to impose an alien will upon  God's single purpose. He is here because He wills to be, and what He
W1:132.12  cannot be at all. If you are real, the world you see is false, for  God's creation is unlike the world in every way. And as it was His
W1:134.2  is false. It is irrelevant to everything except illusions. Truth is  God's creation, and to pardon this is meaningless. All truth belongs
W1:136.10  powerful than everlasting life, Heaven more frail than hell, and  God's design for the salvation of His Son opposed by a decision
W1:137.3  as he sees the body has no power to attack the universal oneness of  God's Son.
W1:137.12 Would you not offer shelter to  God's Will? You but invite your Self to be at home, and can this
W1:137.15  with the world, that sickness may be banished from the mind of  God's one Son, Who is my only Self.
W1:138.2  relinquishment of hell. It is not really thus. Yet what is true in  God's creation cannot enter here unless it is reflected in some form
W1:139.9  of them. This does Atonement teach and demonstrates the oneness of  God's Son is unassailed by his belief he knows not what he is. Today
W1:143.1 [125] In quiet I receive  God's Word today.
W1:144.1 [127] There is no love but  God's.
W1:151.7  He passes by such idle witnesses, which merely bear false witness to  God's Son. He recognizes only what God loves, and in the holy light
W1:151.12  in everything and hear in everything no sound except the echo of  God's Voice.
W1:151.15  one can fail to listen when you hear the Voice for God give honor to  God's Son. And everyone will share the thoughts with you which He has
W1:152.9  its changelessness, and its eternal wholeness—all-encompassing,  God's perfect gift to His beloved Son.
W1:152.11 To recognize  God's Son implies as well that all self-concepts have been laid aside
W1:152.11  Their arrogance has been perceived. And in humility the radiance of  God's Son, his gentleness, his perfect sinlessness, his Father's
W1:152.15  the day began, concluding it with this same invitation to your Self.  God's Voice will answer, for He speaks for you and for your Father.
W1:152.15  all your frantic thoughts, the truth of God for self-deceptions, and  God's Son for your illusions of yourself.
W1:153.10  is your purpose, how secure you rest, untouchable within its light.  God's ministers have chosen that the truth be with them. Who is
W1:153.11 It is the function of  God's ministers to help their brothers choose as they have done. God
W1:153.14  a vengeance he cannot escape, were but his own deluded fantasy.  God's ministers have come to waken him from the dark dreams this
W1:153.14  evoked in his confused, bewildered memory of this distorted tale.  God's Son can smile at last on learning that it is not true.
W1:154.10  to us and for us, joining in One Voice the getting and the giving of  God's Word, the giving and receiving of His Will.
W1:155.10  from you as well, with nothing left to keep the truth apart from  God's completion, holy as Himself. Step back in faith, and let truth
W1:155.13  to lead you elsewhere. Dreams are not a worthy guide for you who are  God's Son. Forget not He has placed His hand in yours and given you
W1:159.10  you not worth the gift when God appointed it be given you? Judge not  God's Son, but follow in the way He has established. Christ has
W1:161.7  When hatred rests upon a thing, it calls for death as surely as  God's Voice proclaims there is no death. Fear is insatiable,
W1:163.4  opposite of God proclaimed as lord of all creation, stronger than  God's Will for life, the endlessness of love and Heaven's perfect,
W1:165.6  Abundance dwells in him, and deprivation cannot cut him off from  God's sustaining love and from his home.
W1:166.1 All things are given you.  God's trust in you is limitless. He knows His Son. He gives without
W1:166.3  who holds such strange beliefs. He must believe that, to accept  God's gifts, however evident they may become, however urgently he may
W1:166.5 Yet in his lonely, senseless wanderings,  God's gifts go with him, all unknown to him. He cannot lose them. But
W1:166.9  miserable self you thought was you may not be your identity. Perhaps  God's Word is truer than your own. Perhaps His gifts to you are real.
W1:166.10  God's Will does not oppose. It merely is. It is not God you have
W1:166.13  that comes to those who feel the touch of Christ and recognize  God's gifts. Let sorrow not tempt you to be unfaithful to your trust.
W1:166.14  touch; your change of mind becomes the proof that who accepts  God's gifts can never suffer anything. You are entrusted with the
W1:169.3  open mind can hear the call to waken. It is not shut tight against  God's Voice. It has become aware that there are things it does not
W1:169.6  all. It comes to every mind when total recognition that its will is  God's has been completely given and received completely. It returns
W1:R5.8  mind the way that led him out and now will lead you out with him.  God's Son is crucified until you walk along the road with me.
W1:183.1  God's Name is holy, but no holier than yours. To call upon His Name
W1:183.2  God's Name cannot be heard without response, nor said without an echo
W1:183.3 Repeat  God's Name and all the world responds by laying down illusions. Every
W1:183.4  No temptation but becomes a nameless and unwanted thing before  God's Name. Repeat His Name and see how easily you will forget the
W1:183.6  should you join a brother as you sit with him in silence and repeat  God's Name along with him within your quiet minds, you have
W1:183.6  to God Himself and to His Son. Practice but this today; repeat  God's Name slowly again and still again. Become oblivious to every
W1:183.7  except at the beginning, when we say today's idea but once. And then  God's Name becomes our only thought, our only word, the only thing
W1:183.9  this one. And to all other thoughts respond with this, and see  God's Name replace the thousand little names you gave your thoughts,
W1:183.11  within it. words are insignificant and all requests unneeded when  God's Son calls on his Father's Name. His Father's Thoughts become
W1:184.14 And though we use a different name for each awareness of an aspect of  God's Son, we understand that they have but One Name, Which He has
W1:185.9  that it is otherwise. No compromise is possible in this. You choose  God's peace, or you have asked for dreams. And dreams will come as
W1:185.9  for dreams. And dreams will come as you requested them. Yet will  God's peace come just as certainly and to remain with you forever. It
W1:185.11  asks that he deceive himself no longer by denying to himself what is  God's Will. Who can remain unsatisfied who asks for what he has
W1:186.4 All false humility we lay aside today that we may listen to  God's Voice reveal to us what He would have us do. We do not doubt
W1:186.5  the plan you did not make instead. Judge not your value to it. If  God's Voice assures you that salvation needs your part and that the
W1:186.11  one goal, and one you can attain. Your plan may be impossible, but  God's can never fail because He is its Source.
W1:188.7  God's peace is shining on them, but they must remain with you as
W1:188.7  as well, for they were born within your mind as yours was born in  God's. They lead you back to peace from where they came but to remind
W1:189.4  world of hatred equally unseen and inconceivable to those who feel  God's Love in them. Their world reflects the quietness and peace that
W1:191.10  of his forgiveness. Who could see the world as dark and sinful when  God's Son has come again at last to set it free?
W1:192.2 Forgiveness represents your function here. It is not  God's creation, for it is the means by which untruth can be undone.
W1:194.4  in time. You are but asked to let the future go and place it in  God's hands. And you will see by your experience that you have laid
W1:194.5  into a holy instant when the light that was kept hidden in  God's Son is freed to bless the world. Now is he free, and all his
W1:194.9 Now are we saved indeed. For in  God's hands we rest untroubled, sure that only good can come to us.
W1:197.1  be received with honor, lest they be withdrawn. And so you think  God's gifts are loans at best; at worst, deceptions which would cheat
W1:198.7  as justified. Yet all are one—a place where death is offered to  God's Son and to his Father. You may think They have accepted, but if
W1:198.12 Accept the one illusion which proclaims there is no condemnation in  God's Son, and Heaven is remembered instantly; the world forgotten,
W1:199.4  extended to the all-inclusive goal that it must reach according to  God's plan.
W1:199.8 You are  God's Son. In immortality you live forever. Would you not return your
W1:199.8  stand released with you in it; the world is blessed along with you;  God's Son will weep no more, and Heaven offers thanks for the
W1:200.6  and where it must serve a mighty function. Is not the escape of  God's beloved Son from evil dreams that he imagines, yet believes are
W1:200.7  God because He has one Son, who cannot make a world in opposition to  God's Will and to his own, which is the same as His. What could he
W1:203.1 [183] I call upon  God's Name and on my own. The Name of God is my deliverance from
W1:211.1  holy Son of God Himself. In silence and in true humility, I seek  God's glory to behold it in the Son whom He created as my Self. I
W1:219.1 [199] I am not a body. I am free. I am  God's Son. Be still, my mind, and think a moment upon this. And then
W2:I.9  A moment more, and it will rise again. A moment more, and we who are  God's Sons are safely home, where He would have us be.
W2:I.10  but be still and let all things be healed. We will accept the way  God's plan will end, as we received the way it started. Now it is
W2:WF.1  are all your sins forgiven. What is sin except a false idea about  God's Son? Forgiveness merely sees its falsity and therefore lets it
W2:223.1  unattached, and housed within a body. Now I know my life is  God's. I have no other home, and I do not exist apart from Him. He
W2:WS.1  and all the thoughts that have been born in time will end as well.  God's Word is given every mind which thinks that it has separate
W2:WS.2 The thought of peace was given to  God's Son the instant that his mind had thought of war. There was no
W2:WS.5  the world that freedom is returned, that time is almost over, and  God's Son has but an instant more to wait until his Father is
W2:246.1  the way to God if I have hatred in my heart. Let me not try to hurt  God's Son and think that I can know his Father or my Self. Let me not
W2:WIS.3  They are the “proof” that what has no reality is real. Sin “proves”  God's Son is evil; timelessness must have an end; eternal life must
W2:255.1  Son is like Himself. Let me this day have faith in Him Who says I am  God's Son. And let the peace I choose be mine today bear witness to
W2:255.1  I choose be mine today bear witness to the truth of what He says.  God's Son can have no cares and must remain forever in the peace of
W2:258.1  which offer nothing and do not exist. Shall we continue to allow  God's grace to shine in unawareness while the toys and trinkets of
W2:259.1  suffering? And what but this could be the source of fear, obscuring  God's creation, giving love the attributes of fear and of attack?
W2:WIB.2  will not stay. Yet this he sees as double “safety.” For the Son of  God's impermanence is “proof” his fences work and do the task his
W2:WIB.2  Who the murderer? And if he did not die, what “proof” is there that  God's eternal Son can be destroyed?
W2:WIB.4 The body is the means by which  God's Son returns to sanity. Though it was made to fence him into
W2:265.1  light of Heaven, shining on the world. What is reflected here is in  God's Mind. The images I see reflect my thoughts. Yet is my mind at
W2:265.1  The images I see reflect my thoughts. Yet is my mind at one with  God's. And so I can perceive creation's gentleness.
W2:266.2 This day we enter into paradise, calling upon  God's name and on our own, acknowledging our Self in each of us,
W2:WIC.1 Christ is  God's Son as He created Him. He is the Self we share, uniting us with
W2:WIC.2  Your mind is part of His and His of yours. He is the part in which  God's Answer lies, where all decisions are already made and dreams
W2:271.1  I choose to look upon what Christ would have me see, to listen to  God's Voice, and seek the witnesses to what is true in God's
W2:271.1  to listen to God's Voice, and seek the witnesses to what is true in  God's creation. In Christ's sight, the world and God's creation meet,
W2:271.1  to what is true in God's creation. In Christ's sight, the world and  God's creation meet, and as they come together, all perception
W2:272.1  by Your Love, forever still, forever gentle, and forever safe.  God's Son must be as You created him.
W2:277.2  free, because he is his Father's Son. And he cannot be bound unless  God's Truth can lie and God can will that He deceive Himself.
W2:279.1 The end of dreams is promised me because  God's Son is not abandoned by His Love. Only in dreams is there a
W2:WIHS.5  Spirit is His gift by Which the quietness of Heaven is restored to  God's beloved Son. Would you refuse to take the function of
W2:290.1  Christ's vision come to me this very day. What I perceive without  God's own correction for the sight I made is frightening and painful
W2:WIRW.4  real world is the symbol that the dream of sin and guilt is over and  God's Son no longer sleeps. His waking eyes perceive the sure
W2:292.1  God's promises make no exceptions. And He guarantees that only joy
W2:292.1  and every situation that we meet. Yet is the ending certain. For  God's Will is done in earth and Heaven. We will seek and we will find
W2:294.1  as well? Did God create the mortal and corruptible? What use has  God's beloved Son for what must die? And yet a neutral thing does not
W2:WISC.1  what is forever and forever true. It is the invitation to  God's Word to take illusion's place, the willingness to let
W2:WISC.2  you. There is no end to the release the Second Coming brings, as  God's creation must be limitless. Forgiveness lights the Second
W2:WISC.5  most of all it needs your willingness. Let us rejoice that we can do  God's Will and join together in its holy light. Behold, the Son of
W2:301.2  God's world is happy. Those who look on it can only add their joy to
W2:301.2  we have learned the world we saw was false, and we will look upon  God's world today.
W2:303.1 Watch with me, angels; watch with me today. Let all  God's holy thoughts surround me and be still with me while Heaven's
W2:307.2  state where conflict cannot come because we join our holy will with  God's in recognition that they are but one.
W2:309.1 Within me is eternal innocence because it is  God's Will that it be there forever and forever. I, His Son, whose
W2:WILJ.3 You who believed that  God's Last Judgment would condemn the world to hell along with you,
W2:WILJ.3  condemn the world to hell along with you, accept this holy truth:  God's Judgment is the gift of the correction He bestowed on all your
W2:WILJ.3  you from them and all effects they ever seemed to have. To fear  God's saving grace is but to fear complete release from suffering,
W2:WILJ.4  God's Final Judgment is as merciful as every step in His appointed
W2:WILJ.5 This is  God's Final Judgment: “You are still My holy Son, forever innocent,
W2:311.1  made against yourself and re-establish peace of mind by giving you  God's Judgment of His Son.
W2:318.1 In me,  God's holy Son, are reconciled all parts of Heaven's plan to save the
W2:318.1  of more or less importance than the rest? I am the means by which  God's Son is saved because salvation's purpose is to find the
W2:318.1  as the thing I seek. I am the goal the world is searching for. I am  God's Son, His one Eternal Love. I am salvation's means and end as
W2:WICR.1 Creation is the sum of all  God's thoughts, in number infinite and everywhere without all limit.
W2:WICR.1  anything that It created suffers any change. Forever and forever are  God's thoughts exactly as they were and as they are, unchanged
W2:WICR.2  God's thoughts are given all the power that Their own Creator has.
W2:WICR.4  For Love remains with all Its thought, Its sureness being theirs.  God's memory is in our holy minds, which know their oneness and their
W2:WICR.4  Let our function be only to let this memory return, only to let  God's Will be done on earth, only to be restored to sanity, and to be
W2:322.1  to hide, awaiting me in shining welcome and in readiness to give  God's ancient messages to me. His memory abides in every gift that I
W2:322.1  of Him. And every dream serves only to conceal the Self which is  God's only Son, the likeness of Himself, the Holy One who still
W2:326.2  at first transformed, and then, forgiven, fade entirely into  God's holy Will.
W2:328.1  striving to be separate and that our independence from the rest of  God's creation is the way in which salvation is obtained. Yet all we
W2:330.1  take what is already theirs? The mind that is made willing to accept  God's gifts has been restored to Spirit and extends its freedom and
W2:331.2 Forgiveness shows us that  God's Will is one and that we share it. Let us look upon the holy
W2:334.1  false perception. Let me not accept such meager gifts again today.  God's Voice is offering the peace of God to all who hear and choose
W2:337.1  my Self, my sinlessness, created for me, now already mine, to feel  God's Love protecting me from harm, to understand my Father loves His
W2:346.2  will learn today what peace is ours when we forget all things except  God's Love.
W2:348.2  God's grace suffices us in everything that He would have us do. And
W2:WAI.1 I am  God's Son, complete and healed and whole, shining in the reflection
W2:E.6  wait His answers, as we ask His Will in everything we do. He loves  God's Son as we would love him, and He teaches us how to behold him
W2:E.6  him through His eyes and love him as He does. You do not walk alone.  God's angels hover close and all about. His Love surrounds you, and
M:I.5 Except for  God's teachers, there would be no hope of salvation, for the world of
M:2.1 Certain pupils have been assigned to each of  God's teachers, and they will begin to look for him as soon as he has
M:2.2  being of Him. The instant the idea of separation entered the Mind of  God's Son, in that same instant was God's Answer given. In time this
M:2.2  separation entered the Mind of God's Son, in that same instant was  God's Answer given. In time this happened very long ago. In reality
M:2.4  the teacher, too, made an inevitable choice out of an ancient past.  God's Will in everything but seems to take time in the working-out.
M:2.5  begins. For the teacher is not really the one who does the teaching.  God's Teacher speaks to any two who join together for learning
M:3.3  to say that any level of the teaching-learning situation is part of  God's plan for Atonement, and His plan can have no levels, being a
M:3.3  reflection of His Will. Salvation is always ready and always there.  God's teachers work at different levels, but the result is always the
M:4.1 The surface traits of  God's teachers are not at all alike. They do not look alike to the
M:4.11 All other traits of  God's teachers rest on trust. Once that has been achieved, the others
M:4.12  to a teacher of God. Challenge implies doubt, and the trust on which  God's teachers rest secure makes doubt impossible. Therefore they can
M:4.13  God's teachers do not judge. To judge is to be dishonest, for to
M:4.13  a lack of trust, and trust remains the bed-rock of the teacher of  God's whole thought system. Let this be lost, and all his learning
M:4.14 Harm is impossible for  God's teachers. They can neither harm nor be harmed. Harm is the
M:4.14  of peace and the denial of learning. It demonstrates the absence of  God's curriculum and its replacement by insanity. No teacher of God
M:4.14  It will make the Holy Spirit's lessons impossible to learn. Nor can  God's Teacher be heard at all except by those who realize that harm
M:4.15 Therefore  God's teachers are wholly gentle. They need the strength of
M:4.15  all-encompassing, and limitless strength of gentleness? The might of  God's teachers lies in their gentleness, for they have understood
M:4.15  for they have understood their evil thoughts came neither from  God's Son nor his Creator. Thus did they join their thoughts with Him
M:4.16  be safe. Joy goes with gentleness as surely as grief attends attack.  God's teachers trust in Him. And they are sure His Teacher goes
M:4.16  can come to them. They hold His gifts and follow in His way because  God's Voice directs them in all things. Joy is their song of thanks.
M:4.17  God's teachers have learned how to be simple. They have no dreams
M:4.18  learned and learned very carefully. Like all the other attributes of  God's teachers, this one rests ultimately on trust, for without
M:4.21 The extent of the teacher of  God's faithfulness is the measure of his advancement in the
M:4.21  his trust not yet firmly established. Faithfulness is the teacher of  God's trust in the word of God to set all things right—not some but
M:4.22  Faithfulness, then, combines in itself the other attributes of  God's teachers. It implies acceptance of the word of God and His
M:4.23  comes with lack of judgment. As judgment shuts the mind against  God's Teacher, so open-mindedness invites Him to come in. As
M:4.25 You may have noticed that the list of attributes of  God's teachers does not include those things which are the Son of
M:4.25  of God's teachers does not include those things which are the Son of  God's inheritance. Terms like love, sinlessness, perfection,
M:4.25  the focus properly belongs on the curriculum. It is the function of  God's teachers to bring true learning to the world. Properly speaking
M:5.2  as danger. Sickness is a method, conceived in madness, for placing  God's Son on his Father's throne. God is seen as outside, fierce and
M:5.3  conviction, does healing stand for? It symbolizes the defeat of  God's Son and the triumph of his Father over him. It represents the
M:5.9 To them  God's teachers come to represent another choice which they had
M:5.9  for the right to question what the patient has accepted is true. As  God's messengers, His teachers are the symbols of salvation. They ask
M:5.9  the symbols of salvation. They ask the patient for forgiveness for  God's Son in his own name. They stand for the alternative. With God's
M:5.9  for God's Son in his own name. They stand for the alternative. With  God's Word in their minds they come in benediction, not to heal the
M:5.10  same purpose and therefore are not really different. They seek for  God's Voice in this brother who would so deceive himself as to
M:5.10  Voice in this brother who would so deceive himself as to believe  God's Son can suffer. And they remind him that he has not made
M:5.10  the union of the One will with itself. And this is the function of  God's teachers—to see no will as separate from their own, nor
M:5.10  see no will as separate from their own, nor theirs as separate from  God's.
M:6.2  of treasures laid up equally for the giver and the receiver of  God's gifts. Not one is lost, for they can but increase. No teacher
M:6.3 It is not the function of  God's teachers to evaluate the outcome of their gifts. It is merely
M:6.4  can it be lost ? How can it be ineffectual? How can it be wasted?  God's treasure house can never be empty. And if one gift were
M:7.4  is impossible to doubt its result. This is the certainty that gives  God's teachers the power to be miracle workers, for they have put
M:7.5  for doubt about the outcome of any problem that has been given to  God's Teacher for resolution is always self-doubt. And that
M:9.1 Changes are required in the minds of  God's teachers. This may or may not involve changes in the external
M:9.1  that no one is where he is by accident, and chance plays no part in  God's plan. It is most unlikely that changes in his attitudes would
M:9.1  attitudes would not be the first step in the newly-made teacher of  God's training. There is however no set pattern, since training is
M:9.2  The giving up of judgment, the obvious prerequisite for hearing  God's Voice, is usually a fairly slow process, not because it is
M:11.1  God loves, and yet His Word assures us that He loves the world.  God's Word has promised us that peace is possible here, and what He

M:12.1  He is limitless. And being limitless, His Thoughts are joined with  God's forever and ever. His perception of Himself is based upon God's
M:12.1  with God's forever and ever. His perception of Himself is based upon  God's Judgment, not His own. Thus does He share God's Will and bring
M:12.1  is based upon God's Judgment, not His own. Thus does He share  God's Will and bring His Thoughts to still deluded minds. He is
M:12.2  can no longer be feared, for the mind sees no cause for punishment.  God's teachers appear to be many, for that is the world's need. Yet
M:12.3  is not understandable to the deluded. Only a very few can hear  God's Voice at all, and even they cannot communicate His messages
M:12.3  that truth can come only where it is welcomed without fear. So do  God's teachers need a body, for their unity could not be recognized
M:12.4 Yet what makes them  God's teachers is their recognition of the proper purpose of the
M:12.4  become more and more certain that the body's function is but to let  God's Voice speak through it to human ears. And these ears will carry
M:12.5  be to give the body another purpose from the one that keeps it holy.  God's Voice will tell him when he has fulfilled his role, just as It
M:12.6 Oneness and sickness cannot co-exist.  God's teachers choose to look on dreams a while. It is a conscious
M:12.6  for what they are? Awareness of dreaming is the real function of  God's teachers. They watch the dream figures come and go, shift and
M:12.6  and beautiful. Unity alone is not a thing of dreams. And it is this  God's teachers acknowledge as behind the dream, beyond all seeing and
M:13.3  wants to find. Who can escape this self-condemnation? Only through  God's Word could this be possible. For self-condemnation is a
M:13.4  God's teachers can have no regret on giving up the pleasures of the
M:13.6  In one sense that is true, for you hold dear the things that crucify  God's Son. And it is the course's aim to set him free. But do not be

M:14.3  goal indeed. But time stands still and waits on the goals of  God's teachers. Not one thought of sin will remain the instant any
M:14.4  to be willing to go in its direction. He need merely trust that, if  God's Voice tells him it is a lesson he can learn, he can learn it.
M:14.5  not end as it began. To turn hell into Heaven is the function of  God's teachers, for what they teach are lessons in which Heaven is
M:15.1 Indeed yes! No one can escape  God's Final Judgment. Who could flee forever from the truth? But the
M:15.1  proclaimed around and around the world, setting it free as  God's Final Judgment on him is received. This is the judgment in
M:15.4  small and meaningless to occupy your holy minds an instant longer.  God's judgment waits for you to set you free. What can the world hold
M:16.8  is a sorry substitute for true assistance. It is not good enough for  God's teacher, because it is not enough for God's Son.
M:16.8  is not good enough for God's teacher, because it is not enough for  God's Son.
M:16.9  is nothing more than the attempt to substitute another will for  God's. These attempts may indeed seem frightening, yet they are
M:16.11  The world would gladly make it if it knew it could be made. It is  God's teachers who must teach it that it can. And so it is their
M:16.11  magic, for it is only this that leads to pain. “There is no will but  God's.” His teachers know that this is so and have learned that
M:16.11  training, every day and hour, and even every minute and second, must  God's teachers learn to recognize the forms of magic and perceive
M:17.1  is not to attack it. If a magic thought arouses anger in any form,  God's teacher can be sure that he is strengthening his own belief in
M:18.2  God's teachers’ major lesson is to learn how to react to magic
M:18.2  And now is guilt forgiven, overlooked completely in His sight and in  God's Word.
M:18.3  is blotted out as this insane belief is taken as replacement for  God's Word. The body's eyes now “see”; its ears alone are thought to
M:18.5  his healing is his pupil healed with him. The sole responsibility of  God's teacher is to accept the Atonement for himself. Atonement means
M:19.1  making only just interpretations and laying all injustices aside. If  God's Son were fairly judged, there would be no need for salvation.
M:19.4 Salvation is  God's justice. It restores to your awareness the wholeness of the
M:19.4  It remains forever and forever like its Creator, being one with Him.  God's Judgment is His justice. Onto this—a judgment wholly lacking
M:19.5 Pray for  God's justice, and do not confuse His mercy with your own insanity.
M:19.5  Remember this. In this lies either Heaven or hell, as you elect.  God's justice points to Heaven just because it is entirely impartial.
M:20.2 First, how can the peace of God be recognized?  God's peace is recognized at first by just one thing—in every way
M:20.3  found? No one can fail to find it who but seeks out its conditions.  God's peace can never come where anger is, for anger must deny that
M:20.4  for a moment now and think of this: is conflict what you want, or is  God's peace the better choice? Which gives you more? A tranquil mind
M:20.6  stars and all the thoughts of which you can conceive belong to you.  God's peace is the condition for His Will. Attain His peace, and you
M:21.5 A major hindrance in this aspect of his learning is the teacher of  God's fear about the validity of what he hears. And what he hears may
M:21.5  you, but offer them in confidence. They are far wiser than your own.  God's teachers have God's Word behind their symbols. And He Himself
M:21.5  in confidence. They are far wiser than your own. God's teachers have  God's Word behind their symbols. And He Himself gives to the words
M:22.4  healing all perception. Healing is the result of the recognition by  God's teacher of Who it is that is in need of healing. This
M:22.7  then can say who can be healed of what and what must remain beyond  God's power to forgive? This is insanity indeed. It is not up to
M:22.7  God's power to forgive? This is insanity indeed. It is not up to  God's teachers to set limits upon Him, because it is not up to them
M:22.7  Both are equally meaningless. Yet this will not be understood until  God's teacher recognizes that they are the same mistake. Herein does
M:23.1  God's gifts can rarely be received directly. Even the most advanced
M:23.1  gifts can rarely be received directly. Even the most advanced of  God's teachers will give way to temptation in this world. Would it be
M:23.7  to suit the need. Jesus has come to answer yours. In him you find  God's Answer. Do you then teach with him, for he is with you; he is
M:24.6  other time. No teaching that does not lead to this is of concern to  God's teachers. All beliefs will point to this if properly
M:26.1  been removed. In how many is this the case? Here then is the role of  God's teachers. They too have not attained the necessary
M:26.3  still in bondage and still asleep, so that by their awakening can  God's Voice be heard.
M:27.4  and will attempt a thousand more. Not one can be acceptable to  God's teachers because not one could be acceptable to God. He did not
M:27.5 The “reality” of death is firmly rooted in the belief that  God's Son is a body. And if God created bodies, death would indeed be
M:28.4  in the light their purpose is transformed and understood. And we,  God's children, rise up from the dust and look upon our perfect
M:28.6  mind remains possessed of evil dreams, the thought of hell is real.  God's teachers have the goal of wakening the minds of those asleep
M:28.6  truth about the holy Son of God. He is redeemed, for he has heard  God's Word and understood its meaning. He is free because he let
M:28.6  God's Word and understood its meaning. He is free because he let  God's Voice proclaim the truth. And all he sought before to crucify

C:29.12 It is extremely important for you to realize that  God's work takes place outside of time, as do all acts of true

C:30.14 The laws of unity are  God's laws and are simple indeed: giving and receiving are one. And

T3:5.7  purpose. Without there having been an original purpose worthy of  God's son, the crucifixion would have ended life in form and returned
T3:7.1  of beliefs in “A Treatise on Unity,” to speaking here of ideas.  God's thought of you is an idea of absolute truth. Your existence

C:4.15  never wavering. Another who prizes independence seeks a partner in  good health, not too demanding, a companion and a lover who will be
C:5.11  nor understand that the urges that you feel are real, and neither  good nor bad. Your feelings in truth come from love, your response to

C:16.10  you can judge judgment itself. You deem yourself capable of making  good judgments and poor judgments, and you deem love as being capable

C:16.25  to comply with rules of God and man with thought of some greater  good in mind. If everyone did what he or she wanted to do, you
C:16.25  would want, then you, too, must abdicate your wishes for the common  good. You thus behave in “noble” ways that serve no purpose.
C:17.5 There is an underlying assumption that you know all that is  good for you to know, and that to know more is going to mean that
C:17.5  of evidence. Yet, in your estimation, the unknown cannot be fully  good or worthy of your knowing because the reason that you use is

C:17.5  This is why even Heaven, which you would label good, is not wholly  good in your estimation of it. Why is it not wholly good? Because you

C:17.5  you have defined it as lacking much of what you have judged to be  good in the world you now perceive.

C:20.39  a belief in mutuality. All fear that what is good for one may not be  good for the whole is replaced by an understanding that each one is
C:20.40  in the saying that the sun shines and the rain falls on the  good and evil alike. All gifts of God are given equally and
C:24.3  that unlearning is taking place. Welcome them as harbingers of this  good news. Know that the time of tenderness is a sure path on the way

C:31.18  they are not the sum of their behaviors. How, then, is confession  good for the soul?
C:31.19  If you remembered your Self, notions such as confession being  good for the soul would be no more. But in order to remember your
C:31.36  is in a “mood,” and see that the effects of that mood are either  good or bad, for either you or them or both. Since you live in a
T1:3.14  to make this final choice, this choice to leave fear behind for  good and to become who you are.
T1:7.2  accepts learning through contrast, that evil is seen in relation to  good, peace in relation to chaos, love in relation to fear. This
T1:7.2  must exist at a given time, but never both. Thus the absence of  good health is disease; the absence of peace is conflict, the absence
T2:7.13  of A Course of Love, teachings concerning your desire to be  good and to do good. This is not about doing good works. This is
T2:7.13  of Love, teachings concerning your desire to be good and to do  good. This is not about doing good works. This is about being who you
T2:7.13  your desire to be good and to do good. This is not about doing  good works. This is about being who you are and seeing the truth
T2:7.13  the illusion that surrounds you. You cannot, in other words, be a  good person in a bad world. You cannot effect change without, without
T2:7.15 Giving is not only about choosing what  good and helpful parts of yourself you will share with the world. It
T2:9.12  which your needs are met creates a static level, that no matter how  good or right or meaningful, loses its creative nature by remaining
T2:11.15  is how the notion of Christ as savior arose. This is the belief in a  good self and a bad self with Christ acting as conscience and
T2:11.15  self and a bad self with Christ acting as conscience and defender of  good and the ego acting as devil and defender of evil. This is
T2:11.15  conflict that seems real to you within your world. This battle of  good and evil, while you believe in it still, will be demonstrated
T2:11.16  you may waste much time in perceived battles, valiantly fighting for  good to win out over evil. But this is not the new way and the lack
T3:2.9 There is no right or wrong in art, and there is no right or wrong, no  good or bad in regards to the self but only accurate or inaccurate
T3:3.2  source has still been the ego. These traits, whether you see them as  good or bad or somewhere in between are what you have seen as making
T3:3.3  trying. Most of you fall somewhere in between, living a life full of  good intentions and effort and being surprised neither by what seems
T3:3.9  or not, there is a part of you that still believes you are not  good enough to be the “good” self you believe this Course calls you
T3:3.9  always and eventually calls you back to the idea that you are not  good enough or that you do not want to put the effort into being good
T3:3.9  not good enough or that you do not want to put the effort into being  good enough. Like a person who believes she has a weight problem and
T3:3.10  idea of who you were. This idea was a complex set of judgments, of  good and bad, right and wrong, worthy and unworthy, a list as endless
T3:4.1  you were once bad but that by following these tenets you can become  good. It gives no credence and no blame to any past cause for your
T3:6.3 Reward is intricately tied to your notions of being  good, performing deeds of merit, and taking care of, or surviving,
T3:8.5  and believe that choices for suffering were made for some greater  good or to repay debts of the past. The only choice that has been
T3:14.5 I am, however, the bringer of  Good News. Now I will repeat to you a piece of good news you may have
T3:14.5  the bringer of Good News. Now I will repeat to you a piece of  good news you may have forgotten: You would not be other than who you
T3:15.11  Thus, truth, like love, is not something that you can learn. The  Good News is that you have no need to learn the truth. The truth
T3:16.14  from your old idea of special relationships. All of your plans to do  good and be good, to help others, and to struggle to make the world a
T3:16.14  idea of special relationships. All of your plans to do good and be  good, to help others, and to struggle to make the world a better
T3:20.10  as do “bad.” I am not calling you to just another version of being  good or mentally healthy, to exercises in visualization or positive
T3:21.24  you or who speak more eloquently or who are better examples of a  good and saintly life are those who will lead the way for others to
T3:22.12  words, thought that this creative tension would not necessarily be a  good thing to give up. You do not know how to reach beyond what was
T4:1.20  learning through contrast—provided contrast through dissent. The  good in which one believed became the evil that another fought and in
T4:1.20  the truth by seeing what you have perceived as the contrast between  good and evil.
T4:1.23  to have once been so clearly able to see the contrast between  good and evil and feel now as if these distinctions have become more
T4:2.8  you continue to believe that a final judgment will separate the  good from the evil, you are carrying judgment.
T4:2.29  To see without judgment is to see truly. You need not look for  good or bad, but only need be steadily aware that you can only see in
T4:3.8  you will make one final judgment in which you find everything to be  good and full of love. Once all has been judged with the vision of
T4:5.12  about this now and you will see that it is true. You hoped to live a  good life and at the end of that life to know God. Your vision of the
T4:7.7  the lesson that it has come to impart to you, will return you to  good health. Your poor health is no cause for judgment, as it is the
T4:12.13 Is this not a  good example of the learned wisdom that needs to be left behind? But

D:Day4.50  focus on acceptance of one thing over another. You are not to label  good or bad. Just to accept. Accept all. You do not have to hesitate
D:Day8.4  truly. Only when you have accepted how you feel do you quit labeling  good or bad; only then can you deal with anything from a place of

Tx:13.15 Lay not his guilt upon him, for his  guilt lies in his secret that he thinks that he has done this unto
Tx:13.16  that you offer the Son of God lies the conviction of your own  guilt. If you would have the Holy Spirit make you free of it, accept
Tx:13.16  God in part. Those whom you see as guilty become the witnesses to  guilt in you, and you will see it there, for it is there until
Tx:13.16  and you will see it there, for it is there until it is undone.  Guilt is always in your own mind, which has condemned itself.
Tx:13.16  you do, it cannot be undone. With everyone whom you release from  guilt, great is the joy in Heaven, where the witnesses to your
Tx:13.17  Guilt makes you blind, for while you see one spot of guilt within
Tx:13.17 Guilt makes you blind, for while you see one spot of  guilt within you, you will not see the light. And by projecting it,
Tx:13.17  And by projecting it, the world seems dark and shrouded in your  guilt. You throw a dark veil over it and cannot see it because you
Tx:13.18 Do not be afraid to look within. The ego tells you all is black with  guilt within you and bids you not to look. Instead, it bids you
Tx:13.18  to look. Instead, it bids you look upon your brothers and see the  guilt in them. Yet this you cannot do without remaining blind. For
Tx:13.19  is no difference, for He knows not of differences. Can you see  guilt where God knows there is perfect innocence? You can deny
Tx:13.20  service of displacement is to hide the real source of your  guilt and keep from your awareness the full perception that it is
Tx:13.20  be true and must be fearful, or you would not have displaced the  guilt onto what you believed to be less fearful. You are therefore
Tx:13.21  for that is why they are insane. No real relationship can rest on  guilt or even hold one spot of it to mar its purity. For all
Tx:13.21  hold one spot of it to mar its purity. For all relationships which  guilt has touched are used but to avoid the person and the guilt.
Tx:13.21  which guilt has touched are used but to avoid the person and the  guilt. What strange relationships you have made for this strange
Tx:13.21  and it is that which makes them pure. [If you displace your  guilt upon them, the Holy Spirit cannot use them.] For by preempting
Tx:13.22 In any union with a brother in which you seek to lay your  guilt upon him or share it with him or perceive his own, you will
Tx:13.22  with him, because your union with him is not real. You will see  guilt in that relationship because you put it there. It is
Tx:13.22  because you put it there. It is inevitable that those who suffer  guilt will attempt to displace it, because they do believe in it.
Tx:13.22  what loving is. Their main concern is to perceive the source of  guilt outside themselves, beyond their own control.
Tx:13.24  you would have yourself be welcome to your Father, you will see no  guilt in you. For you will have accepted the Atonement, which shone
Tx:13.24  the Atonement, which shone within you all the while you dreamed of  guilt and would not look within and see it.
Tx:13.25 As long as you believe that  guilt is justified in any way in anyone whatever he may do, you
Tx:13.25  not look within, where you would always find Atonement. The end of  guilt will never come as long as you believe there is a reason for
Tx:13.25  as you believe there is a reason for it. For you must learn that  guilt is always totally insane and has no reason. The Holy Spirit
Tx:13.26  you from. What He has saved you from is gone. Give no reality to  guilt, and see no reason for it. The Holy Spirit does what God
Tx:13.27  As yet it is not now. The Son of God believes that he is lost in  guilt, alone in a dark world where pain is pressing everywhere upon
Tx:13.27  not and looked upon him as condemned. The moment that you realize  guilt is insane, wholly unjustified, and wholly without reason,
Tx:13.28  to look upon the lovely truth in you. Look through the cloud of  guilt that dims your vision, and look past darkness to the holy
Tx:13.29 Release from  guilt as you would be released. There is no other way to look
Tx:13.29  see your holiness. You cannot be as you believed you were. Your  guilt is without reason, because it is not in the Mind of God where
Tx:13.30  you single out part of the Sonship for your love, you are imposing  guilt on all your relationships and making them unreal. You can
Tx:13.31  look upon his holiness and offer thanks unto his Father that no  guilt has ever touched him.
Tx:13.32  his innocence in any way. His shining purity, wholly untouched by  guilt and wholly loving, is bright within you. Let us look upon him
Tx:13.32  yourself, and gladness and appreciation for what you see will banish  guilt forever. I thank You, Father, for the purity of Your most holy
Tx:13.34  can even think on it. Before the glorious radiance of the Kingdom,  guilt melts away and, transformed into kindness, will never more be
Tx:13.35  advice for how to deal with the perceived and harsh intrusion of  guilt on peace. Yet no one sees himself in conflict and ravaged by a
Tx:13.36  freedom. Nothing destructive ever was or will be. The war, the  guilt, the past are gone as one into the unreality from which they
Tx:13.39 You whose minds are darkened by doubt and  guilt, remember this: God gave the Holy Spirit to you and gave Him
Tx:13.39  you and gave Him the mission to remove all doubt and every trace of  guilt that His dear Son has laid upon himself. It is impossible
Tx:13.49  If what you offer is complete forgiveness, you must have let  guilt go, accepting the Atonement for yourself and learning you are
Tx:13.64  because his thoughts are free. Yet this entails the recognition that  guilt is interference, not salvation, and serves no useful function
Tx:13.65  are accustomed to using guiltlessness merely to offset the pain of  guilt and do not look upon it as having value in itself. You
Tx:13.65  do not look upon it as having value in itself. You believe that  guilt and guiltlessness are both of value, each representing an
Tx:13.65  can you be happy. There is no conflict here. To wish for  guilt in any way, in any form, will lose appreciation of the
Tx:13.66 There is no compromise that you can make with  guilt and escape the pain which only guiltlessness allays. Learning
Tx:13.66  is living here, as creating is being in Heaven. Whenever the pain of  guilt seems to attract you, remember that, if you yield to it, you
Tx:13.68  between the ego and the Holy Spirit. The ego is the choice for  guilt; the Holy Spirit the decision for guiltlessness. The power of
Tx:13.69  attesting to your happiness that comes from choosing to be free of  guilt. Everyone you offer healing to returns it. Everyone you attack
Tx:13.71  There is nothing to forgive. No one can hurt the Son of God. His  guilt is wholly without cause, and being without cause, cannot
Tx:13.72 God is the only Cause, and  guilt is not of Him. Teach no one he has hurt you, for if you do, you
Tx:13.72  or choose to look upon without imposing on himself the penalty of  guilt in place of all the happy teaching the Holy Spirit would
Tx:13.73  But those who believe they are guilty will respond to  guilt because they think it is salvation and will not refuse to see
Tx:13.73  refuse to see it and side with it. [They believe that increasing  guilt is self-protection.] And they will fail to understand the
Tx:13.77  from. The Holy Spirit knows that all salvation is escape from  guilt. You have no other “enemy,” and against this strange distortion
Tx:13.79  “sin” of self-replacement on the throne of God is not a source of  guilt. What cannot happen can have no effects to fear. Be quiet in
Tx:13.89  till you learn this. For in the end, whatever form it takes, your  guilt arises from your failure to fulfill your function in God's Mind
Tx:13.89  your function in God's Mind with all of yours. Can you escape this  guilt by failing to fulfill your function here? You need not
Tx:13.91  upon yourself by loving not the Son of God and trying to teach him  guilt instead of love. Give up this frantic and insane attempt, which
Tx:13.92  whether this is not more restful than sleep. For you can bring your  guilt into sleeping but not into this.
Tx:14.5  and to God through Him. He speaks of you to you. There is no  guilt in you, for God is blessed in His Son as the Son is blessed in
Tx:14.6  that his true function remains unfulfilled in him. The burden of  guilt is heavy, but God would not have you bound by it. His plan for
Tx:14.7  here is to devote yourself with active willingness to the denial of  guilt in all its forms. To accuse is not to understand. The happy
Tx:14.8  his creation. Do not try to steal it from him, or you will ask for  guilt and will experience it. Protect his purity from every thought
Tx:14.8  allow purity to remain hidden, but shine away the heavy veils of  guilt within which the Son of God has hidden himself from his own
Tx:14.9  be free of pain? He may not yet have learned how to exchange his  guilt for innocence nor realize that only in this exchange can
Tx:14.10  on its behalf is offered for the single purpose of release from  guilt to the eternal glory of God and His creation. And every
Tx:14.11  right of God's creation. From everyone whom you accord release from  guilt, you will inevitably learn your innocence. The circle of
Tx:14.12  Joy is its unifying attribute, with no one left outside to suffer  guilt alone. The power of God draws everyone to its safe embrace of
Tx:14.12  holiness. Abide with me within it as teachers of Atonement, not of  guilt.
Tx:14.14  became my part in it. That is the symbol of the release from  guilt by guiltlessness. Whom you perceive as guilty, you would
Tx:14.19  because destruction is not true. The light of guiltlessness shines  guilt away because, when they are brought together, the truth of
Tx:14.19  must make the falsity of its opposite perfectly clear. Keep not  guilt and guiltlessness apart, for your belief that you can have them
Tx:14.32  Son. All this lies hidden in every darkened place shrouded in  guilt and in the dark denial of innocence. Behind the dark doors
Tx:14.33  by gifts wholly acceptable to Father and to Son. Can you offer  guilt to God? You cannot, then, offer it to His Son. For they are not
Tx:14.46  as surely as the reflection of holiness calls everyone to lay all  guilt aside. Reflect the peace of Heaven here and bring this world
Tx:14.68 How can you, so firmly bound to  guilt and committed so to remain, establish for yourself your
Tx:14.70  His bright teaching so firmly in your mind that no dark lessons of  guilt can abide in what He has established as holy by His Presence.
Tx:15.5  cannot conceive of its own death, it will pursue you still because  guilt is eternal. Such is the ego's version of immortality. And it is
Tx:15.7  believe that it can offer the escape from it. But the belief in  guilt must lead to the belief in hell, and always does. The
Tx:15.8  to its teaching, is nothing but a teaching device for compounding  guilt until it becomes all-encompassing and demands vengeance forever.
Tx:15.9  present extends forever. It is so beautiful and so clean and free of  guilt that nothing but happiness is there. No darkness is remembered,
Tx:15.14  of the release you give is your instantaneous escape from  guilt. You must be holy if you offer holiness. How long is an
Tx:15.31  we can replace the shabby littleness that binds the host of God to  guilt and weakness with the glad awareness of the glory that is in
Tx:15.46  said before that to limit love to part of the Sonship is to bring  guilt into your relationships and thus make them unreal. If you seek
Tx:15.46  you are attempting to use separation to save you. How, then, could  guilt not enter? For separation is the source of guilt, and to
Tx:15.46  then, could guilt not enter? For separation is the source of  guilt, and to appeal to it for salvation is to believe you are alone.
Tx:15.48 Because of  guilt, all special relationships have some elements of fear in
Tx:15.49  offer Him your willingness to have it serve no need but His. All the  guilt in it arises from your use of it. All the love from His. Do
Tx:15.56  to use one relationship at the expense of another and not suffer  guilt. And it is equally impossible to condemn part of a relationship
Tx:15.56  from perfect faith in yourself. And this you cannot have while  guilt remains. And there will be guilt as long as you accept the
Tx:15.56  And this you cannot have while guilt remains. And there will be  guilt as long as you accept the possibility, and cherish it, that
Tx:15.65  get something. And it would keep the giver bound to itself through  guilt.
Tx:15.67 The sick attraction of  guilt must be recognized for what it is. For having been made real
Tx:15.67  choose to let go what he believes has value. Yet the attraction of  guilt has value to you only because you have not looked at what it
Tx:15.68 We said before that the ego attempts to maintain and increase  guilt, but in such a way that you do not recognize what it would do
Tx:15.69 It is this chain that binds the Son of God to  guilt, and it is this chain the Holy Spirit would remove from his
Tx:15.71  which he demanded of himself, he demands the other accept the  guilt and sacrifice himself as well. Forgiveness becomes impossible,
Tx:15.71  is only by attack without forgiveness that the ego can ensure the  guilt which holds all its relationships together.
Tx:15.72  as good or bad. What makes another guilty and holds him through  guilt is “good.” What releases him from guilt is “bad,” because he
Tx:15.72  and holds him through guilt is “good.” What releases him from  guilt is “bad,” because he would no longer believe that bodies
Tx:15.73  dedicated to the continuance of loneliness, they seek relief from  guilt by increasing it in the other. For they believe that this
Tx:15.74  but it cannot long deceive those who will learn that love brings no  guilt at all, and what brings guilt cannot be love and must be
Tx:15.74  who will learn that love brings no guilt at all, and what brings  guilt cannot be love and must be anger. All anger is nothing more
Tx:15.74  is the only basis which the ego accepts for special relationships.  Guilt is the only need the ego has, and as long as you identify with

Tx:15.76  For the ego will always teach that loneliness is solved by  guilt and that communication is the cause of loneliness. And
Tx:15.77 Forgiveness lies in communication as surely as damnation lies in  guilt. It is the Holy Spirit's teaching function to instruct those
Tx:15.77  making it evident that it is not impossible. In the holy instant,  guilt holds no attraction, since communication has been restored.
Tx:15.77  holds no attraction, since communication has been restored. And  guilt, whose only purpose is to disrupt communication, has no
Tx:15.80  calls to you to share your will with them. Turn, then, in peace from  guilt to God and them.
Tx:15.90  that you could see. But this you must remember—the attraction of  guilt opposes the attraction of God. His attraction for you remains
Tx:15.90  is as great as His, you can turn away from love. What you invest in  guilt, you withdraw from God. And your sight grows weak and dim and
Tx:15.92  of the Father and the Son. For in this world, the attraction of  guilt does stand between them. Neither time nor season means
Tx:15.93  is truly the time of Christ. For in this liberating instant, no  guilt is laid upon the Son of God, and his unlimited power is thus
Tx:15.94  When you are willing to accept our relationship as real,  guilt will hold no attraction for you. For in our union, you will
Tx:15.96  would accept but this one idea, your fear of love would vanish.  Guilt cannot last when the idea of sacrifice has been removed. For
Tx:15.97 As host to the ego, you believe that you can give all your  guilt away whatever you think and purchase peace. And the payment
Tx:15.98  and is therefore inseparable from attack and fear. And that  guilt is the price of love, which must be paid by fear. How
Tx:15.104  learn that sacrifice is separation from love. For sacrifice brings  guilt as surely as love brings peace. Guilt is the condition of
Tx:15.104  love. For sacrifice brings guilt as surely as love brings peace.  Guilt is the condition of sacrifice, as peace is the condition for
Tx:15.104  condition for the awareness of your relationship with God. Through  guilt you exclude your Father and your brothers from yourself.
Tx:16.32  the destructive effects of hate by finding a haven in the storm of  guilt. It makes no attempt to rise above the storm into the
Tx:16.32  above the storm into the sunlight. On the contrary, it emphasizes  guilt outside the haven by attempting to build barricades against
Tx:16.33  which they would not share with others, are trying to live with  guilt rather than die of it. This is the choice they see. And love
Tx:16.37  in truth, not in illusion. Your relationship with them is without  guilt, and this enables you to look on all your brothers with
Tx:16.43  realize that it involves a great amount of pain. Anxiety, despair,  guilt, and attack all enter into it, broken into by periods in which
Tx:16.44  and one which has the most appeal to those unwilling to relinquish  guilt. The “dynamics” of the ego are clearest here, for counting on
Tx:16.50  is nothing more than an “attractive” form of fear in which the  guilt is buried deep and rises in the form of “love.”
Tx:16.51 The appeal of hell lies only in the terrible attraction of  guilt, which the ego holds out to those who place their faith in
Tx:16.52  you want it? Let us not think of its fearful nature nor of the  guilt it must entail nor of the sadness and the loneliness. For these
Tx:16.60  is His most helpful tool in protecting you from the attraction of  guilt, the real lure in the special relationship. You do not
Tx:16.60  relationship, the more apparent it becomes that it must foster  guilt and therefore must imprison.
Tx:16.65  For you are no longer wholly insane, and you would recognize the  guilt of self-betrayal for what it is.
Tx:16.67  come too far to yield to the illusion of the beauty and holiness of  guilt. Only the wholly insane could look on death and suffering,
Tx:16.67  on death and suffering, sickness and despair and see it thus. What  guilt has wrought is ugly, fearful, and very dangerous. See no
Tx:17.25  of beauty or the veil of ugliness, the real world or the world of  guilt and fear, truth or illusion, freedom or slavery—it is all the
Tx:18.6  for such it was, and so it still remains. Invest it not with  guilt, for guilt implies it was accomplished in reality. And above
Tx:18.6  such it was, and so it still remains. Invest it not with guilt, for  guilt implies it was accomplished in reality. And above all, be not
Tx:18.7  believe it is the other way; that truth is outside and error and  guilt within. Your little senseless substitutions, touched with
Tx:18.17  reality is fearful, not what you would do to it. And thus is  guilt made real.
Tx:18.18  that you are making them act out for you, for if you did, the  guilt would not be theirs, and the illusion of satisfaction would be
Tx:18.20  Your special relationship will remain, not as a source of pain and  guilt, but as a source of joy and freedom. It will not be for you
Tx:18.21 Your special relationship will be a means for undoing  guilt in everyone blessed through your holy relationship. It will be
Tx:18.38  will merely take away the little that is asked. Remember you made  guilt and that your plan for the escape from guilt has been to bring
Tx:18.38  Remember you made guilt and that your plan for the escape from  guilt has been to bring Atonement to it and make salvation fearful.

Tx:18.50  done a stranger thing than you yet realize. You have displaced your  guilt to your bodies from your minds. Yet a body cannot be guilty,
Tx:18.50  you hate your bodies deceive yourselves. You hate your minds, for  guilt has entered into them, and they would remain separate, which
Tx:18.51  it is mind that seems to be fragmented and private and alone. Its  guilt, which keeps it separate, is projected to the body, which
Tx:18.51  it will attack the body by increasing the projection of its  guilt upon it.
Tx:18.52  does when it believes it has attacked the body. It can project its  guilt, but it will not lose it through projection. And though it
Tx:18.54 It is insane to use the body as the scapegoat for  guilt, directing its attack and blaming it for what you wished it to
Tx:18.54  hate, the instrument of vengeance and the perceived source of your  guilt. You have done this to a thing that has no meaning, proclaiming
Tx:18.55  of vengeance, violence, and death. This thing you made to serve your  guilt stands between you and other minds. The minds are joined, but
Tx:18.55  But you would not escape from it, leaving it unharmed, without your  guilt upon it.
Tx:18.65  for sin is never present. In any single instant, the attraction of  guilt would be experienced as pain and nothing else and would be
Tx:18.84 You have been told to bring the darkness to the light and  guilt to holiness. And you have also been told that error must be

Tx:18.93  Here the world outside is seen anew, without the shadow of  guilt upon it. Here are you forgiven, for here you have forgiven
Tx:18.93  step in the journey inward. Here are the dark and heavy garments of  guilt laid by and gently replaced by purity and love.
Tx:18.97  its unholy purpose has been safely brought through the barriers of  guilt, washed with forgiveness, and set shining and firmly rooted in
Tx:19.11  in the holy instant, united in your purpose to be released from  guilt. You saw the Christ in him, and he was healed because you

Tx:19.18  and to succeed. Sin is the proclamation that attack is real and  guilt is justified. It assumes the Son of God is guilty and has thus
Tx:19.22  upside-down. This is the strange illusion which makes the clouds of  guilt seem heavy and impenetrable. The solidness this world's
Tx:19.25 The attraction of  guilt is found in sin, not error. Sin will be repeated because of
Tx:19.25  become so acute that the sin is denied the acting out, but while the  guilt remains attractive the mind will suffer and not let go of the
Tx:19.25  the mind will suffer and not let go of the idea of sin. For  guilt still calls to it, and the mind hears it and yearns for it,
Tx:19.27  will not repeat it; you will merely stop and let it go unless the  guilt remains. For then you will but change the form of sin,
Tx:19.32  in sin. While you believe that bodies can unite, you will find  guilt attractive and believe that sin is precious. For the belief
Tx:19.44  are all the same. Each is a gentle winning over from the appeal of  guilt to the appeal of love. How can this fail to be accomplished,
Tx:19.44  How can this fail to be accomplished, wherever it is undertaken?  Guilt can raise no real barriers against it. And all that seems to

Tx:19.51  them to feast only upon what they return to him. No little shred of  guilt escapes their hungry eyes. And in their savage search for sin,
Tx:19.54  The world will be transformed before your sight, cleansed of all  guilt and softly brushed with beauty. The world contains no fear
Tx:19.58  your lives complete. This is completion, as the ego sees it. For  guilt creeps in where happiness has been removed and substitutes for

Tx:19.59  body is valuable for what it offers. For here is the attraction of  guilt made manifest in the body and seen in it.
Tx:19.63  not the feast of fear. You want salvation, not the pain of  guilt. And you want your Father, not a little mound of clay, to be

Tx:19.64  of guilt is in your hands to give. Would you stop now to look for  guilt in each other?
Tx:19.65 Let me be to you the symbol of the end of  guilt, and look upon each other as you would look on me. Forgive me
Tx:19.65  for if you are guilty, so must I be. But if I surmounted  guilt and overcame the world, you were with me. Would you see in me
Tx:19.65  the world, you were with me. Would you see in me the symbol of  guilt or of the end of guilt, remembering that what I signify to
Tx:19.65  with me. Would you see in me the symbol of guilt or of the end of  guilt, remembering that what I signify to you, you see within
Tx:19.66  Heaven. Send forth to all the world the joyous message of the end of  guilt, and all the world will answer. Think of your happiness as
Tx:19.66  end of sin and shows you that its power is gone forever. Where can  guilt be, when the belief in sin is gone? And where is death, when
Tx:19.69  see the means for its accomplishment and justify its use.] Peace and  guilt are both conditions of the mind to be attained. And these

Tx:19.72 Is not this inevitable? Under fear's orders, the body will pursue  guilt, serving its master whose attraction to guilt maintains the
Tx:19.72  the body will pursue guilt, serving its master whose attraction to  guilt maintains the whole illusion of its existence. This, then, is

Tx:11.97  Atonement teaches you what immortality is, for by accepting your  guiltlessness, you learn that the past has never been, and so the

Tx:13.65 You are accustomed to using  guiltlessness merely to offset the pain of guilt and do not look upon
Tx:13.65  look upon it as having value in itself. You believe that guilt and  guiltlessness are both of value, each representing an escape from
Tx:13.65  as whole and therefore happy. Yet you are whole only in your  guiltlessness, and only in your guiltlessness can you be happy.
Tx:13.65  Yet you are whole only in your guiltlessness, and only in your  guiltlessness can you be happy. There is no conflict here. To

Tx:13.68  The ego is the choice for guilt; the Holy Spirit the decision for  guiltlessness. The power of decision is all that is yours. What you
Tx:13.69 The miracle teaches you that you have chosen  guiltlessness, freedom, and joy. It is not a cause, but an effect.

Tx:13.86 When you accept a brother's  guiltlessness, you will see the Atonement in him. For by proclaiming
Tx:13.86  see what you sought. You will not see the symbol of your brother's  guiltlessness shining within him while you still believe it is not
Tx:13.86  shining within him while you still believe it is not there. His  guiltlessness is your Atonement. Grant it to him, and you will see
Tx:13.87  and part of Him, are more than merely guiltless. The state of  guiltlessness is only the condition in which what is not there has
Tx:14.1  He is all around you. He cannot be known without His Son, whose  guiltlessness is the condition for knowing Him. Accepting His Son as

Tx:14.9 The miracle acknowledges the  guiltlessness which must have been denied to produce need of
Tx:14.13  who teach with me. Our power comes not of us but of our Father. In  guiltlessness we know Him, as He knows us guiltless. I stand within

Tx:4.61  ego has hurt, the Atonement cannot release you. As long as you feel  guilty, your ego is in command because only the ego can experience
Tx:5.61  that if you identify with the ego, you must perceive yourself as  guilty. Whenever you respond to your ego, you will experience guilt

Tx:11.85 If you did not feel  guilty, you could not attack, for condemnation is the root of

Tx:13.11  laws of punishment. And those who follow them believe that they are  guilty, and so they must condemn. Between the future and the past,
Tx:13.14  him not. When you condemn a brother, you are saying, “I who was  guilty choose to remain so.” You have denied his freedom, and by
Tx:13.15  that the guiltless Son of God can attack himself and make himself  guilty is insane. In any form, in anyone, believe this not. For
Tx:13.16 See no one, then, as  guilty, and you will affirm the truth of guiltlessness unto
Tx:13.16  to condemn the Son of God in part. Those whom you see as  guilty become the witnesses to guilt in you, and you will see it
Tx:13.18  remaining blind. For those who see their brothers in the dark, and  guilty in the dark in which they shroud them, are too afraid to look
Tx:13.22  upon him or share it with him or perceive his own, you will feel  guilty. Nor will you find satisfaction and peace with him, because

Tx:13.79  to evaluate his Father and judge against Him. And you will feel  guilty for this imagined crime, which no one in this world or Heaven
Tx:13.89 You will feel  guilty till you learn this. For in the end, whatever form it takes,

Tx:15.70  that no one could interpret direct attack as love. Yet to make  guilty is direct attack but does not seem to be. For the guilty
Tx:15.70  to make guilty is direct attack but does not seem to be. For the  guilty expect attack, and having asked for it, they are
Tx:15.72  terms that it evaluates ideas as good or bad. What makes another  guilty and holds him through guilt is “good.” What releases him
Tx:15.74  All anger is nothing more than an attempt to make someone feel  guilty, and this attempt is the only basis which the ego accepts

Tx:16.44 Very simply, the attempt to make  guilty is always directed against God. For the ego would have you

Tx:21.60  and still perceive the other innocent. Who looks upon himself as  guilty and sees a sinless world? And who can see a sinful world and
Tx:23.28  inevitable loss the enemy must suffer to save yourself. Thus do the  guilty ones protest their “innocence.” Were they not forced into this
Tx:25.38  And who, because he wishes to attack, can fail to think it must be  guilty to deserve the wish and leave him innocent? And who would see
Tx:26.14  There is no such thing as partial justice. If the Son of God is  guilty, then is he condemned, and he deserves no mercy from the God
Tx:26.14  God of justice. But ask not God to punish him because you find him  guilty and would have him die. God offers you the means to see his
