| Tx:11.53 | The ego is trying to teach you how to | gain the whole world and lose your own Soul. The Holy Spirit teaches |
| Tx:11.53 | Holy Spirit teaches that you cannot lose your Soul and there is no | gain in the world, for of itself it profits nothing. To invest in |
| Tx:11.61 | do not apply, and by applying them to all situations, you will | gain the real world. For in this holy perception, you will be made |
| Tx:11.62 | does, you learn what it is. You cannot see your abilities, but you | gain confidence in their existence as they enable you to act. And the |
| Tx:15.58 | you must believe that strength comes from another, and what you | gain he loses. Someone must always lose if you perceive yourself as |
| Tx:15.59 | you can give yourself completely, wholly without loss, and only with | gain. |

| Tx:23.55 | God in their awareness could never think of battle. What could they | gain but loss of their perfection? For everything fought for on the |

| Tx:25.60 | tenet God must be insane. For in this world, it seems that one must | gain because another lost. If this were true, then God is mad indeed! |
| Tx:25.60 | basic tenet, “Sin is real and rules the world”? For every little | gain must someone lose and pay exact amount in blood and suffering. |

| Tx:25.61 | Salvation is rebirth of the idea no one can lose for anyone to | gain. And everyone must gain if anyone would be a gainer. Here is |
| Tx:25.61 | of the idea no one can lose for anyone to gain. And everyone must | gain if anyone would be a gainer. Here is sanity restored. And on |
| Tx:25.63 | This much is necessary to add to the idea no one can lose for you to | gain. And nothing more. |
| Tx:25.79 | To give reluctantly is not to | gain the gift because you are reluctant to accept it. It is saved for |
| Tx:26.11 | demand that someone suffer loss and make a sacrifice that you might | gain. And when the situation is worked out so no one loses, is the |
| Tx:26.11 | mistake—the whole idea that loss is possible and could result in | gain for anyone. If this were true, then God would be unfair, sin |
| Tx:28.46 | the seeds of sickness were. And there will be no loss, but only | gain. |

| Tx:30.83 | be? And thus you judge disaster and success, advance, retreat, and | gain and loss. These judgments all are made according to the roles |
| Tx:31.27 | to give attack to anyone at all. Why should you? What would be the | gain to you? What could the outcome be that you would want? And how |
| Tx:31.34 | roads are given. They have but one end. And each is but the means to | gain that end, for it is here that all its roads will lead, however |
| Tx:31.40 | on this—you choose between your brother and yourself, and you will | gain as much as he will lose, and what you lose is what is given him. |
| Tx:31.55 | is that you somehow entered in the choice by your decision. But this | gain is paid in almost equal loss, for now you stand accused of guilt |

| W1:47.7 | which you need and to which you are entitled. You must also | gain an awareness that your confidence in your real strength is fully |

| W1:133.10 | one who is deceived will not perceive that he has merely failed to | gain. He will believe that he has served the ego's hidden goals. And |
| W1:133.14 | What is the | gain to you in learning this? It is far more than merely letting you |
| W1:138.3 | in return. And time goes by without results. There is no sense of | gain, for nothing is accomplished; nothing learned. |
| W1:138.8 | These mad beliefs can | gain unconscious hold of great intensity and grip the mind with |
| W1:139.8 | we accepted. It is more than just our happiness alone we came to | gain. What we accept as what we are proclaims what everyone must be |
| W1:153.12 | is no loser. Everyone who plays must win, and in his winning is the | gain to everyone ensured. The game of fear is gladly laid aside when |

| W1:187.5 | Give gladly. You can only | gain thereby. The thought remains and grows in strength as it is |
| W1:187.5 | is a giver who retains, another who will give as well. And both must | gain in this exchange, for each will have the thought in form most |
| W1:194.8 | and evil with the truth of love. Think you the world could fail to | gain thereby and every living creature not respond with healed |
| W1:199.5 | of every practice period you take. There is no thought that will not | gain thereby in power to help the world, and none which will not gain |
| W1:199.5 | not gain thereby 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 |
| W2:328.1 | until we listen to the Voice of God. It seems that we will | gain autonomy but by our striving to be separate and that our |
| W2:343.1 | end of suffering cannot be loss. The gift of everything can but be | gain. You only give. You never take away. And You created me to be |
| M:4.14 | by those who realize that harm can actually achieve nothing. No | gain can come of it. |
| M:4.19 | would he want it for? He could only lose because of it. He could not | gain. Therefore he does not seek what only he could keep, because |
| M:5.4 | of sickness is recognized. One need but say, “There is no | gain to me at all in this,” and he is healed. But to say this one |
| M:6.3 | possible, the part that guarantees the giver will not lose but only | gain. Who gives a gift and then remains with it to be sure it is used |
| M:29.4 | to in the course. To say, “Of myself I can do nothing” is to | gain all power. And yet it is but a seeming paradox. As God created |

| Tx:1.29 | he made up himself. No real threat is involved anywhere. Nothing is | gained by frightening yourselves, and it is very destructive to do so. |
| Tx:6.55 | because the laws are true, but because you made them. What would be | gained if God proved to you that you have thought insanely? Can God |
| Tx:10.52 | in place of love, and only the insane could believe that love can be | gained by attack. But the sane know that only attack could produce |
| Tx:21.57 | both at once. Reason is alien to insanity, and those who use it have | gained a means which cannot be applied to sin. Knowledge is far |
| Tx:25.71 | is too weak to save from punishment. But vengeance without love has | gained in strength by being separate and apart from love. And what |
| Tx:30.58 | has been grasped and welcomed, and the means by which it can be | gained can now be understood. The world becomes a place of hope |
| W1:45.11 | to go. Yet even with the little understanding you have already | gained, you should be able to remind yourself that this is no idle |
| W1:R3.9 | without applying what you learned to them. As a result, you have | gained little reinforcement and have not given it the opportunity to |
| W1:184.7 | which another kind of learning can begin, a new perception can be | gained, and all the arbitrary names the world bestows can be |

| Tx:5.33 | The Holy Spirit is the idea of healing. Being thought, the idea | gains as it is shared. Being the Call for God, it is also the idea of |
| Tx:15.54 | the blessing is not limited. In the holy instant, the Sonship | gains as one. And united in your blessing, it becomes one to you. The |

| Tx:31.55 | Although this step has | gains, it does not yet approach a basic question. Something must have |
| W1:37.1 | together. No one loses; nothing is taken away from anyone; everyone | gains through your holy vision. It signifies the end of sacrifice |
| W1:R3.13 | such large advances that we come from these reviews with learning | gains so great that we begin again on solid ground, with firmer |
| W1:123.1 | and a little hesitance, but we can well be grateful for our | gains, which are far greater than we realize. |
| W1:123.2 | will add the benefit of some insight into the real extent of all the | gains which you have made; the gifts you have received. Be glad today |
| W1:135.11 | for its defense? You offer it protection of a kind from which it | gains no benefit at all but merely adds to your distress of mind. You |
| W2:319.1 | aims which are curtailed and limiting. The ego thinks that what one | gains totality must lose. And yet it is the Will of God I learn that |
| W2:319.1 | must lose. And yet it is the Will of God I learn that what one | gains is given unto all. |

| Tx:29.66 | you have need of them no more. The dream of judgment is a children's | game in which the child becomes the father, powerful, but with the |
| W1:45.11 | gained, you should be able to remind yourself that this is no idle | game but an exercise in holiness and an attempt to reach the Kingdom |
| W1:153.6 | because it recognizes strength so great attack is folly or a silly | game a tired child might play when he becomes too sleepy to remember |
| W1:153.12 | Salvation can be thought of as a | game that happy children play. It was designed by One Who loves His |
| W1:153.12 | their fearful toys with joyous games which teach them that the | game of fear is gone. His game instructs in happiness because there |
| W1:153.12 | joyous games which teach them that the game of fear is gone. His | game instructs in happiness because there is no loser. Everyone who |
| W1:153.12 | must win, and in his winning is the gain to everyone ensured. The | game of fear is gladly laid aside when children come to see the |
| W1:153.13 | in a fearful world made mad by sin and guilt, be happy now. That | game is over. Now a quiet time has come in which we put away the toys |

| Tx:4.86 | me, you come as close to knowledge as perception ever can. The | gap is then so small that knowledge can easily flow across it and |

| Tx:12.31 | the ego perceives in time, and it closes over the present so that no | gap in its own continuity can occur. Its continuity, then, would keep |
| Tx:16.28 | Who created you as you are. Sooner or later must everyone bridge the | gap which he imagines exists between his selves. Each one builds this |
| Tx:16.28 | his selves. Each one builds this bridge which carries him across the | gap as soon as he is willing to expend some little effort on behalf |
| Tx:26.42 | by love. And so you die each day to live again until you cross the | gap between past and present, which is not a gap at all. Such is each |
| Tx:26.42 | until you cross the gap between past and present, which is not a | gap at all. Such is each life—a seeming interval from birth to |
| Tx:27.71 | an enormous world, with different dreams about the truth in you. The | gap between reality and dreams lies not between the dreaming of the |
| Tx:27.72 | the space between your dreams and your reality. The little | gap you do not even see, the birthplace of illusions and of fear, the |
| Tx:28.15 | come to take the place of loss? What better way to close the little | gap between illusions and reality than to allow the memory of God to |
| Tx:28.30 | seen the cause of sickness where it is, and you have overlooked the | gap between you, where the sickness has been bred. Thus are you |
| Tx:28.30 | been bred. Thus are you joined in sickness, to preserve the little | gap unhealed, where sickness is kept carefully protected, cherished, |
| Tx:28.30 | and upheld by firm belief, lest God should come to bridge the little | gap that leads to Him. Fight not His coming with illusions, for it is |
| Tx:28.31 | is the end of fear, and love was never in the world of dreams. The | gap is little. Yet it holds the seeds of pestilence and every form of |
| Tx:28.31 | give a cause to sickness which is not its cause. The purpose of the | gap is all the cause that sickness has. For it was made to keep you |
| Tx:28.32 | by. And covered just as fast, as water rushes in to close the | gap and as the waves in joining cover it. Where is the gap between |
| Tx:28.32 | to close the gap and as the waves in joining cover it. Where is the | gap between the waves when they have joined and covered up the space |
| Tx:28.32 | grounds for sickness when the minds have joined to close the little | gap between them where the seeds of sickness seemed to grow? |
| Tx:28.34 | nothing left behind the open door. What is the world except a little | gap perceived to tear eternity apart and break it into days and |
| Tx:28.35 | Be not afraid, but let your world be lit by miracles. And where the | gap was seen to stand between you, join your brother there. And |
| Tx:28.36 | and shares it equally with him. And in Their sharing there can be no | gap in which abundance falters and grows thin. Here can the lean |
| Tx:28.39 | in brotherhood. His body and his dreams but seem to make a little | gap, where yours have joined with his. |
| Tx:28.40 | And yet, between your minds there is no | gap. To join his dreams is thus to meet him not because his dreams |
| Tx:28.40 | in bondage to his dream. And dreams of fear will haunt the little | gap, inhabited but by illusions which you have supported in each |
| Tx:28.41 | he will join you where you stand. Call not to him to meet you in the | gap between you, or you must believe that it is your reality as well |
| Tx:28.42 | You share confusion and you are confused, for in the | gap no stable self exists. What is the same seems different because |
| Tx:28.43 | Holy Spirit is in both your minds, and He is One because there is no | gap that separates His Oneness from Itself. The gap between your |
| Tx:28.43 | because there is no gap that separates His Oneness from Itself. The | gap between your bodies matters not, for what is joined in Him is |
| Tx:28.44 | this is the picture that the miracle will place within the little | gap, left clean of all the seeds of sickness and of sin. And here the |
| Tx:28.45 | I thank you, Father, knowing you will come to close each little | gap that lies between the broken pieces of Your holy Son. Your |
| Tx:28.46 | not of Him has no effects. What then would you perceive within the | gap? The seeds of sickness come from the belief that there is joy in |
| Tx:28.46 | But miracles are the result when you do not insist on seeing in the | gap what is not there. Your willingness to let illusions go is all |
| Tx:28.47 | but a sense of limitation? Of a splitting off and separating from? A | gap perceived between [ourselves] and what is seen as health? The |
| Tx:28.50 | You have conceived a little | gap between illusions and the truth to be the place where all your |
| Tx:28.51 | ears and eyes perceive these countless fragments seen within the | gap which you imagined, and let them persuade their maker his |
| Tx:28.52 | to attest its truth. Reality does not depend on this. There is no | gap which separates the truth from dreams and from illusions. Truth |
| Tx:28.53 | You who believe there is a little | gap between you, do not understand that it is here that you are kept |
| Tx:28.53 | not exist because the place where you perceive it is not real. The | gap is carefully concealed in fog, and misty pictures rise to cover |
| Tx:28.53 | and changing shapes, forever unsubstantial and unsure. Yet in the | gap is nothing. And there are no awesome secrets and no darkened |
| Tx:28.53 | tombs where terror rises from the bones of death. Look at the little | gap, and you behold the innocence and emptiness of sin that you will |
| Tx:28.54 | Who punishes the body is insane. For here the little | gap is seen, and yet it is not here. It has not judged itself nor |
| Tx:28.55 | takes no sides and judges not the road it travels. It perceives no | gap because it does not hate. It can be used for hate, but it cannot |
| Tx:28.57 | The body represents the | gap between the little bit of mind you call your own and all the rest |
| Tx:28.58 | is your wish, it can have no effects. Whoever says, “There is no | gap between my mind and yours” has kept God's promise, not his tiny |
| Tx:28.60 | for nothing. For there is no lack in him. An empty space, a little | gap, would be a lack. And it is only there that he could want for |
| Tx:28.60 | 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 either, who |
| Tx:28.60 | to what He wills as part of what He is. The promise that there is no | gap between Himself and what He is cannot be false. What will can |
| Tx:28.60 | between what must be one, and in Whose wholeness there can be no | gap? |
| Tx:28.62 | Either there is a | gap between you and your brother, or you are as one. There is no in |
| Tx:28.65 | its weakness lies not in itself but in the frailty of the little | gap of nothingness whereon it stands? What can be safe which rests |
| Tx:28.66 | on God's promise that His Son is safe forever in Himself. What | gap can interpose itself between the safety of this shelter and its |
| Tx:29.1 | is absent. There is nothing to be feared. There is no way in which a | gap could be conceived of in the wholeness that is His. The |
| Tx:29.1 | in the wholeness that is His. The compromise the least and littlest | gap would represent in His eternal love is quite impossible. For it |
| Tx:29.1 | sometimes fail. All this do you believe, when you perceive a | gap between your brother and yourself. How could you trust Him, then? |
| Tx:29.1 | in His Love. Be wary, then; let Him not come too close, and leave a | gap between you and His love through which you can escape if there be |
| Tx:29.2 | love is fearful—hate is love. This is the consequence the little | gap must bring to those who cherish it and think that it is their |
| Tx:29.3 | made your friendship possible a little while. But not without a | gap between you, lest he turn again into an enemy. [Let him come |
| Tx:29.4 | The | gap between you is not one of space between two separate bodies. This |
| Tx:29.8 | that nothing stands between you? Would you know there is no | gap behind which you can hide? There is a shock that comes to those |
| Tx:29.9 | Yet all that happens when the | gap is gone is peace eternal. Nothing more than that, and nothing |
| Tx:29.9 | what could induce you to abandon Him? What toys or trinkets in the | gap could serve to hold you back an instant from His love? Would you |

| Tx:30.41 | your will could not be satisfied with empty forms made but to fill a | gap which is not there. It is not this you want. Creation gives no |

| Tx:30.56 | the dream of separation start to fade and disappear. For here the | gap that is not there begins to be perceived without the toys of |

| Tx:26.19 | they are judged to be untrue. This borderland is just beyond the | gate of Heaven. Here is every thought made pure and wholly simple. |

| Tx:26.30 | it many different ways. All learning is a help or hindrance to the | gate of Heaven. Nothing in between is possible. There are two |
| Tx:26.31 | goal as high as learning can achieve? Think not the way to Heaven's | gate is difficult at all. Nothing you undertake with certain purpose |
| Tx:26.43 | worlds. You have gone on and reached the world that lies at Heaven's | gate. There is no hindrance to the Will of God nor any need that you |

gave (253) | ||
| Tx:2.5 | as defined above, is a fundamental attribute of God which He | gave to His Son. In the creation, God projected His creative ability |
| Tx:2.20 | so He could depend on them because He created them perfectly. He | gave them His peace so they could not be shaken and would be unable |
| Tx:2.100 | as a corrective device. “And God so loved the world that He | gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in Him shall not |

| Tx:3.75 | was named the “tree of knowledge.” Yet God created knowledge and | gave it freely to His creations. The symbolism here has been given |
| Tx:4.16 | are not at peace because you are not fulfilling your function. God | gave you a very lofty responsibility which you are not meeting. You |
| Tx:4.30 | therefore continually preoccupied with the scarcity principle which | gave rise to it. This is the meaning of Freud's “reality principle” |
| Tx:4.69 | has every reason to do this according to the thought system which | gave rise to it and which it serves. Sane judgment would inevitably |
| Tx:5.22 | literal sense; you are part of Him. When you chose to leave Him, He | gave you a Voice to speak for Him because He could no longer share |
| Tx:5.27 | because we were created as equals. It was only my decision that | gave me all power in Heaven and earth. My only gift to you is to help |
| Tx:5.72 | way. And as its maker, you recognize what it can do because you | gave it the power to do it. |
| Tx:5.91 | to God the mind as He created it. He asks you only for what He | gave, knowing that this giving will heal you. Sanity is wholeness, |
| Tx:5.93 | as I told you before, the remedy is not of your making. God Himself | gave you the perfect correction for everything you have made which is |
| Tx:6.37 | 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 He is. |
| Tx:6.55 | sanity, which is the one thing in which you can find the sanity He | gave you. |
| Tx:6.56 | be to attack it. Being questioned, He did not question. He merely | gave the Answer. His Answer is your Teacher. |
| Tx:7.5 | I | gave only love to the Kingdom because I believed that was what I was. |
| Tx:7.96 | 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 you have it forever, He gave |
| Tx:7.96 | He gave it forever. If it was His Will that you have it forever, He | gave you the means for keeping it, and you have done so. Disobeying |
| Tx:7.100 | Yet the function which God Himself | gave your minds through His you may deny, but you cannot prevent. It |
| 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 God's, |
| Tx:8.24 | everything belongs to Him. Giving of your self is the function He | gave you. Fulfilling it perfectly will teach you what you have of |
| Tx:8.32 | can oppose your will, as nothing God created can oppose His. God | gave your will its power, which I can only acknowledge in honor of |
| Tx:8.39 | I can share [my perfect confidence in His promise, because I know He | gave me] this confidence for both of us and all of us. I bring God's |
| Tx:8.49 | He does not will to be alone. That is why He created His Son and | gave him the power to create with Him. |
| Tx:8.104 | God in His devotion to you created you devoted to everything and | gave you what you are devoted to. Otherwise, you would not have been |
| Tx:8.114 | 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 them. Do |

| Tx:9.101 | sin, pain, and suffering into your own mind because of the power He | gave it. Your mind is capable of creating worlds, but it can also |
| Tx:9.102 | 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:10.27 | of God cannot hide his glory, for God wills him to be glorious and | gave him the light that shines in him. You will never lose your way, |
| Tx:10.30 | can accept the whole Sonship and bless it with the light your Father | gave it. Then you will be worthy to dwell in the temple with Him |
| 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 His, and |
| Tx:10.77 | truth except from himself. Yet God will not refuse the answer He | gave you. Ask, then, for what is yours but which you did not make, |
| 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, remembering |
| Tx:11.32 | We once said that God so loved the world that He | gave it to His only-begotten Son. God does love the real world, and |
| 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 your |
| Tx:11.41 | Behold the Guide your Father | gave you that you might learn you have eternal life. For death is not |
| Tx:11.57 | His vision with you. He will show you the real world because God | gave you Heaven. Through Him your Father calls His Son to remember. |
| Tx:11.69 | to your decision about reality, returning to you the message you | gave them. Love is recognized by its messengers. If you make love |
| Tx:11.70 | you made of it is not its reality, for its reality is only what you | gave it. You cannot really give anything but love to anyone or |
| Tx:12.6 | of God's Son, it did attempt to kill him, and the reason it | gave was that guiltlessness is blasphemous to God. To the ego the ego |
| 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 recognize |
| Tx:12.54 | their joy, they shine with holy thanks. And this they offer you, who | gave them joy. They are your guides to joy, for having received it of |
| Tx:12.56 | who accept love of you become your willing witnesses to the love you | gave them, and it is they who hold it out to you. In sleep you are |
| Tx:12.56 | brothers, and in the darkness you cannot look upon the light you | gave to them. |
| Tx:12.57 | wake. In your 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:13.13 | The world can give you only what you | gave it, for being nothing but your own projection, it has no meaning |
| Tx:13.13 | and you will not see, because your faith will be rewarded as you | gave it. You will accept your treasure, and if you place your faith |
| 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 all |
| Tx:13.39 | doubt and guilt, remember this: God gave the Holy Spirit to you and | gave Him the mission to remove all doubt and every trace of guilt |
| Tx:13.75 | 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:13.78 | 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 will |
| 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 the |
| Tx:14.32 | In the darkness you have obscured the glory God | gave you and the power He bestowed upon His guiltless Son. All this |
| Tx:14.61 | 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:15.22 | you could never be content with it. Littleness is the offering you | gave yourself. You offered this in place of magnitude, and you |
| Tx:15.27 | When God | gave Himself to you in your creation, He established you as host to |
| 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:15.62 | be denied you, for I denied it not. And through me the Holy Spirit | gave it unto you, as you will give it. Let no need that you perceive |
| Tx:15.82 | Think but an instant on this: God | gave the Sonship to you to ensure your perfect creation. This was His |
| Tx:15.92 | birth through Him. The only gift I can accept of you is the gift I | gave to you. Release me as I will your release. The time of Christ we |
| Tx:15.108 | I give you that you may give it and return it to the Father, Who | gave it to me. For in the time of Christ, communication is restored, |
| Tx:16.42 | eternity. Waken from time and answer fearlessly the call of Him Who | gave eternity to you in your creation. On this side of the bridge to |
| Tx:16.59 | must be unnatural. For God created love as He would have it be and | gave it as it is. Love has no meaning except as its Creator defined |
| Tx:16.68 | you. And you will think in glad astonishment that for all this you | gave up nothing! The joy of Heaven, which has no limit, is increased |
| Tx:16.77 | 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 that you |
| Tx:16.77 | given you, and it is impossible that you receive it not, because He | gave it. When He willed that His Son be free, His Son was free. In |
| Tx:17.14 | To forgive is merely to remember only the loving thoughts you | gave in the past and those that were given you. All the rest must be |
| Tx:17.56 | all the Sonship and offer it in gladness and thanksgiving to Him Who | gave you your release, and Who would extend it through you. |
| Tx:17.79 | relationship, you became givers of peace as surely as your Father | gave peace to you. For the goal of peace cannot be accepted apart |
| Tx:18.21 | He has given 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 |
| Tx:18.29 | is your need for salvation. Would I not give you what you | gave to me? For when you joined each other, you answered me. |
| Tx:18.45 | love is fear, not happiness. Let Him fulfill the function that He | gave to your relationship by accepting it for you, and nothing will |
| 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 where |
| Tx:19.35 | smiled upon. Your perception was healed in the holy instant Heaven | gave you. Forget what you have seen and raise your eyes in faith to |
| Tx:19.61 | join in holy communion and be at peace. Such is the message that I | gave them for you. |
| Tx:19.68 | Holy Spirit the whole idea of sacrifice. And to accept the peace He | gave instead, without the limits which would hold its extension back |
| Tx:19.87 | in time but nourished in eternity. Behold this infant to whom you | gave a resting-place by your forgiveness of each other, and see in it |
| Tx:19.106 | and not separate in death. Behold the gift of freedom that I | gave the Holy Spirit for both of you. And be you free together, as |
| 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:20.15 | lamp is lit in both of you for one another. And by the hands that | gave it to each other shall both of you be led past fear to love. |
| 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 its |
| Tx:20.38 | you give, and through your not forgetting this will you remember Who | gave the gifts to Him to give to you. |
| 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:21.17 | Suffer, and you decided sin was your goal. Be happy, and you | gave the power of decision to Him Who must decide for God for you. |
| Tx:21.17 | is the little gift you offer to the Holy Spirit, and even this He | gave to you to give yourself. For by this gift is given you the power |
| Tx:21.19 | This witness is insane. You trained it in its testimony, and as it | gave it back to you, you listened and convinced yourself that what it |
| Tx:21.22 | else. This other will, which seems to tell you what must happen, you | gave reality. And what would show you otherwise must therefore seem |
| Tx:21.22 | simply to recognize again the presence of what you thought you | gave away. |
| Tx:21.40 | seeing, they look past it, as do you. The faith and the belief you | gave it belongs beyond. You gave perception and belief and faith from |
| Tx:21.40 | as do you. The faith and the belief you gave it belongs beyond. You | gave perception and belief and faith from mind to body. Let them now |
| 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 upon |
| Tx:22.26 | is there. For what He gave the Holy Spirit to give to you, He | gave. Would you not look upon the savior that has been given you? And |
| 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 | can 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:26.32 | tiny instant time was gone, for that was all it ever was. What God | gave Answer to is answered and is gone. |
| Tx:26.33 | look upon you saw but for an instant, long ago before its unreality | gave way to truth. Not one illusion still remains unanswered in your |
| 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:26.65 | and set him free. But it is arrogant to lay aside the power that He | gave and choose a little senseless wish instead of what He wills. The |
| Tx:26.74 | of now, which could not be the cost the Holy Spirit asks for what He | gave without a cost at all. |
| 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 function |
| 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:27.56 | it is it feels. It does not know. It tells you but the names you | gave it to use when you call forth the witnesses to its reality. You |
| Tx:27.71 | one. The dreaming of the world is but a part of your own dream you | gave away and saw as if it were its start and ending both. Yet was it |
| Tx:27.73 | was his friend.] God willed he waken gently and with joy. And | gave him means to waken without fear. Accept the dream He gave |
| Tx:27.73 | joy. And gave him means to waken without fear. Accept the dream He | gave instead of yours. It is not difficult to [shift] a dream when |
| Tx:27.75 | thoughtfulness to dream about instead of counting up the hurts he | gave. Forgive him his illusions and give thanks to him for all the |
| Tx:27.75 | him his illusions and give thanks to him for all the helpfulness he | gave. And do not brush aside his many gifts because he is not perfect |
| Tx:27.80 | they are, they have no more effects on him because he understands he | gave them their effects by causing them and making them seem real. |
| Tx:27.82 | for laughter, not a cause for fear. Let us return the dream he | gave away unto the dreamer who perceives the dream as separate from |
| Tx:28.2 | 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 be |
| Tx:28.22 | in the dream. He gives himself the consequences which he dreams he | gave his brother. And it is but this the dream has put together and |
| Tx:29.24 | in your creation, so the light in him is brighter still because you | gave your light to him to save him from the dark. And now the light |
| Tx:29.29 | How happy would your dreams become if you were not the one who | gave the “proper” role to every figure which the dream contains. No |
| Tx:29.40 | mind and see another purpose there. Change is the greatest gift God | gave to all that you would make eternal, to ensure that only Heaven |
| Tx:29.41 | is no death because the living share the function their Creator | gave to them. Life's function cannot be to die. It must be life's |
| Tx:29.60 | 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, did He |
| Tx:30.34 | himself? God but ensured that you would never lose your will when He | gave you His perfect answer. Hear it now that you may be reminded of |
| Tx:30.37 | But you will not forgive the world until you have forgiven Him Who | gave your will to you. For it is by your will the world is given |
| Tx:31.5 | Learning is an ability you made and | gave yourselves. It was not made to do the Will of God but to uphold |
| Tx:31.16 | you think that it is murder justified at last. You hate the one you | gave the leader's role when you would have it, and you hate as well |
| Tx:31.21 | hears one Voice, He cannot hear a different answer from the one He | gave when God appointed Him His only Son. |
| Tx:31.52 | your brother made of you seems most unlikely. Even if he did, who | gave the face of innocence to you? Is this your contribution? Who is, |
| Tx:31.55 | of the self. And something must have done the learning which | gave rise to them. Nor can this be explained by either view. The main |
| Tx:31.69 | that you should be the sign of evil and of guilt in him. And as you | gave your trust to what is good in him, you gave it to the good in |
| Tx:31.69 | guilt in him. And as you gave your trust to what is good in him, you | gave it to the good in you. |
| Tx:31.95 | will forever be. They will accept the gift I offer them because You | gave it me on their behalf. And as I would but do Your holy Will, so |
| W1:42.6 | God's gifts to me must be mine because He | gave them to me. |
| W1:49.3 | our will with the Will of God. He wants you to hear His Voice. He | gave It to you to be heard. |
| W1:62.3 | guilt and pain. It will restore the invulnerability and power God | gave His Son to your awareness. |
| W1:65.1 | 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 mind. |
| W1:65.13 | My only function is the one God | gave me. I want no other and I have no other. |
| W1:66.4 | not only is there a very real connection between the function God | gave you and your happiness, but that they are actually identical. |
| W1:66.4 | identical. God gives you only happiness. Therefore the function He | gave you must be happiness, even if it appears to be different. |
| W1:66.10 | 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 the |
| W1:72.7 | 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 of |
| W1:73.2 | or co-makers in picturing the world you see. The wishes of the ego | gave rise to it, and the ego's need for grievances, which are |
| W1:78.7 | caused you, his neglect, and all the little and the larger hurts he | gave. We will regard his body with its flaws and better points as |
| 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 |
| W1:83.2 | [65] My only function is the one God | gave me. I have no function but the one God gave me. This recognition |
| 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 it |
| 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 give |
| W1:97.7 | 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 tiny gleam |
| W1:99.15 | unity, and peace. You cannot lose the gifts your Father | gave. You do not want to be another self. You have no function that |
| W1:107.10 | and blood 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 |
| W1:108.12 | 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 gave it. You |
| W1:108.12 | gift you gave, and it will come to you in the amount in which you | gave it. You will find you have exact return, for this is what you |
| W1:109.4 | rest in God. They will not hear another voice but yours because you | gave your voice to God and now you rest in Him and let Him speak |
| W1:R3.4 | practice periods to be replacements for your litanies to them. They | gave you nothing. But your practicing can offer everything to you. |
| W1:R3.6 | will use them wisely, being helped in its decisions by the One Who | gave the thoughts to you. What can you trust but what is in your |
| W1:R3.6 | lean back in quiet faith and let the mind employ the thoughts you | gave as they were given you for it to use. |
| W1:R3.14 | not forget your Father's need of you as you review these thoughts He | gave to you. |
| W1:115.3 | essential to the plan of God for the salvation of the world. For He | gave me His plan that I might save the world. |
| W1:117.3 | Love is my heritage and with it joy. These are the gifts my Father | gave to me. I would accept all that is mine in truth. |
| W1:121.12 | and let your “enemy” and friend unite in blessing you with what you | gave. Now are you one with them and they with you. Now have you been |
| W1:123.8 | hourly to think of Him and give Him thanks for everything He | gave His Son that he might rise above the world remembering his |
| W1:124.3 | which we were created, smiles on us and offers us the happiness we | gave. Today we will not doubt His Love for us nor question His |
| W1:124.7 | and we now would give, for we would keep the gifts our Father | gave. Today we would experience ourselves at one with Him, so that |
| W1:124.10 | waiting to be found. You will remember then the thought to which you | gave this half an hour, thankfully aware no time was ever better |
| W1:128.5 | values we have given to the world. We leave it free of purposes we | gave its aspects and its phases and its dreams. We hold it |
| W1:132.9 | you ever thought it was by merely changing all the thoughts that | gave it these appearances. The sick are healed as you let go all |
| W1:135.7 | to serve you thus except your own belief? It is your mind which | gave the body all the functions that you see in it and set its value |
| W1:136.20 | removes the limits you had placed upon the body by the purposes you | gave to it. As these are laid aside, the strength the body has will |
| W1:138.7 | make. Such is its holy purpose, now transformed from the intent you | gave it, that it be a means for demonstrating hell is real, hope |
| 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:R4.4 | are and what your Father is. It is this thought by which the Father | gave creation to the Son, establishing the Son as co-creator with |
| W1:153.17 | hour that is yet to come, while thanking Him for all the gifts He | gave us in the one gone by. |
| W1:158.2 | It is not this knowledge which you give, for that is what creation | gave. All this cannot be learned. What, then, are you to learn to |
| W1:161.3 | He may employ them for a purpose which is different from the one we | gave to them. Yet He can use but what we made to teach us from a |
| W1:162.1 | 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 all |
| W1:163.7 | Their stronger will could triumph over His, and so eternal life | gave way to death. And with the Father died the Son as well. |
| W1:166.10 | to His Will. There was a need He did not understand, to which He | gave an Answer. That is all. And you who have this Answer given you |
| W1:168.6 | He loves His Son. To Him we pray today, returning but the words He | gave to us through His Own Voice, His Word, His Love: |
| W1:169.7 | accomplished and complete. He recognized all that time holds and | gave it to all minds that each one might determine from a point where |
| W1:183.4 | names of all the gods you value. They have lost the name of god you | gave them. They become anonymous and valueless to you, although |
| W1:183.9 | with this, and see God's Name replace the thousand little names you | gave your thoughts, not realizing that there is One Name for all |
| W1:183.11 | Thoughts 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 |
| W1:184.3 | kept apart and holding bits of mind as separate awarenesses? You | gave these names to them, establishing perception as you wished to |
| W1:184.12 | closed and separation healed. The Name of God is the inheritance He | gave to those who chose the teaching of the world to take the place |
| W1:184.13 | must accept One Name for all reality, and realize the many names you | gave its aspects have distorted what you see but have not interfered |
| W1:198.1 | free, for freedom is your gift, and you can now receive the gift you | gave. |
| W2:224.1 | give it light. It lights the 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 |
| W2:230.1 | my Self. How merciful is God my Father, that when He created me He | gave me peace forever. Now I ask but to be what I am. And can this be |
| W2:230.2 | Father, I seek the peace You | gave as mine in my creation. What was given then must be here now, |
| W2:230.2 | I am as You created me. I need but call on You to find the peace You | gave. It is Your will that gave it to Your Son. |
| W2:230.2 | but call on You to find the peace You gave. It is Your will that | gave it to Your Son. |
| W2:239.1 | false humility. Let us instead be thankful for the gifts our Father | gave us. Can we see in those with whom He shares His glory any trace |
| W2:WIW.1 | not left its source. It will remain no longer than the thought which | gave it birth is cherished. When the thought of separation has been |
| W2:247.2 | today. My brothers are Your Sons. Your Fatherhood created them and | gave them all to me as part of You and my own Self as well. Today I |
| W2:WIS.1 | sees illusions where the truth should be and where it really is. Sin | gave the body eyes, for what is there the sinless would behold? What |
| W2:255.2 | this day with You. Your Son has not forgotten You. The peace You | gave him still is in his mind, and it is there I choose to spend |
| W2:263.1 | Mind created all that is; Your Spirit entered into it; Your Love | gave life to it. And would I look upon what You created as if it |
| W2:266.1 | Father, You | gave me all Your Sons to be my saviors and my counselors in sight— |
| W2:269.1 | them. It is given me to find a new perception through the Guide You | gave to me and through His lessons to surpass perception and return |
| W2:273.2 | have me keep? I cannot lose Your gifts to me. And so the peace You | gave Your Son is with me still, in quietness and in my own eternal |
| W2:276.1 | purpose we have come. And yet we need but to acknowledge Him Who | gave His Word to us in our creation, to remember Him and so recall |
| W2:279.2 | the Son Whom He created as His own. Would You withhold the gifts You | gave to me? |
| W2:310.2 | world joins with us in our song of thankfulness and joy to Him Who | gave salvation to us, and Who set us free. We are restored to peace |
| W2:316.2 | Your gifts today. I do not recognize them. Yet I trust that You Who | gave them will provide the means by which I can behold them, see |
| W2:320.1 | on his strength, his peace, his joy, or any attributes his Father | gave in his creation. What he wills with his Creator and Redeemer |
| W2:322.2 | except in dreams. As You created me, I can give up nothing You | gave me. What You did not give has no reality. What loss can I |
| W2:324.1 | Father, You are the One Who | gave the plan for my salvation to me. You have set the way I am to |
| W2:328.2 | at peace. And happily I share that will which You, my Father, | gave as part of me. |
| W2:338.2 | Mine alone will fail and lead me nowhere. But the Thought You | gave me promises to lead me home, because it holds Your promise to |
| W2:347.1 | to claim Your gift today. And so I give all judgment to the One You | gave to me to judge for me. He sees what I behold, and yet He knows |
| W2:WAI.2 | words is almost over now. Yet in the final days of this one year we | gave to God together, you and I, we found a single purpose that we |

| Tx:13.76 | but ask of the Holy Spirit everything and leave all decisions to His | gentle counsel. |
| Tx:14.31 | meaning, including yours, comes not from double vision but from the | gentle fusing of everything into one meaning, one emotion, and one |
| Tx:14.36 | where you must meet with truth. And there you must be led, through | gentle understanding which can lead you nowhere else. Where God is, |
| Tx:14.40 | release you from everything that it is not. The Atonement is so | gentle you need but whisper to it, and all its power will rush to |
| Tx:15.101 | where they are, the choice between them is nothing more than a | gentle awakening and as simple as opening your eyes to daylight when |
| Tx:16.65 | reality. Time is kind, and if you use it for reality, it will keep | gentle pace with you in your transition. The urgency is only in |
| Tx:18.62 | love and joined it where it is and where it led you in answer to its | gentle call to be at peace. |
| Tx:19.39 | to Him He asks but that you receive for Him. And when you look with | gentle graciousness upon each other, you are beholding Him. For you |
| Tx:19.44 | of difficulty in miracles, for they are all the same. Each is a | gentle winning over from the appeal of guilt to the appeal of love. |
| Tx:19.51 | attraction which guilt holds for fear is wholly absent from love's | gentle perception. What love would look upon is meaningless to fear |
| Tx:19.53 | them forth, they will see only the blameless and the beautiful, the | gentle and the kind. They will be as careful to let no little act of |
| Tx:19.78 | their grim master, lord of death? Touch any one of them with the | gentle hands of forgiveness and watch the chains fall away along with |
| Tx:19.110 | you had faith in still is faithful and watches over you in faith so | gentle yet so strong that it would lift you far beyond the veil and |
| Tx:20.9 | loving friends. He sees no thorns, but only lilies, gleaming in the | gentle glow of peace that shines on everything He looks upon and |
| Tx:20.44 | of God and shares his Father's certainty the universe rests in his | gentle hands in safety and in peace. Let us consider now what he must |
| Tx:20.54 | is eternally upheld by truth, and love shines on it with the | gentle smile and tender blessing it offers to its own. Here the |
| Tx:20.72 | becomes benign, and sin is turned to blessing under His | gentle gaze. What can the body's eyes perceive, with power to |
| Tx:20.76 | calm and reassuring sights with which He would replace them. These | gentle sights and sounds are looked on happily and heard with joy. |
| Tx:21.5 | There is no need to learn through pain. And | gentle lessons are acquired joyously and are remembered gladly. What |
| Tx:22.15 | draws you together draws Him to you. Here are His sweetness and His | gentle innocence protected from attack. And here can He return in |
| Tx:22.52 | so profound it cannot be described, the Holy Spirit waits in | gentle patience, as certain of the outcome as He is sure of His |
| Tx:22.56 | to recognize a gift he let be laid in Heaven through himself? The | gentle service that you give the Holy Spirit is service to yourself. |
| Tx:24.42 | you have not? He is your eyes, your ears, your hands, your feet. How | gentle are the sights He sees, the sounds He hears. How beautiful His |
| Tx:25.55 | to sanity. But sin is equally insane within the sight of love, whose | gentle eyes would look beyond the madness and rest peacefully on |
| Tx:26.16 | And you will see each little hurt resolved before the Holy Spirit's | gentle sight. For all of them are little in His sight and worth no |
| Tx:26.84 | come to bless and to replace an ancient enmity that came to kill. In | gentle gratitude do God the Father and the Son return to what is |
| Tx:27.1 | incompatible and make a unity of what can never join? Walk you the | gentle way, and you will fear no evil and no shadows in the night. |
| Tx:27.5 | guilt in him which you perceived and loved. Now in the hands made | gentle by His touch, the Holy Spirit lays a picture of a different |
| Tx:27.74 | Rest in the Holy Spirit and allow His | gentle dreams to take the place of those you dreamed in terror and in |
| Tx:27.85 | In | gentle laughter does the Holy Spirit perceive the cause and looks not |
| Tx:28.13 | was made to render unremembered and undone. The stillness speaks in | gentle sounds of love the Son of God remembers from before his own |
| Tx:29.23 | There, in its place, God's Witness has set forth the | gentle way of kindness to God's Son. Whom you forgive is given power |
| Tx:31.8 | there is no fear and everything is lit with hope and sparkles with a | gentle friendliness. Nothing but calls to you in soft appeal to be |
| W1:73.12 | determining to keep your will clearly in mind, tell yourself with | gentle firmness and quiet certainty: |
| W1:95.20 | the voice of hope, the stirring of the truth within his mind, the | gentle rustling of the wings of peace. Your own acknowledgment you |
| W1:125.7 | minutes set apart from listening to the world and choose instead a | gentle listening to the Word of God. He speaks from nearer than your |
| W1:137.8 | potent than their sickly opposites. Healing is strength. For by its | gentle hand is weakness overcome. And minds which were walled off |
| W1:137.9 | are the means by which the Holy Spirit urges you to follow Him. His | gentle lessons teach how easily salvation can be yours, how little |
| W1:140.3 | heralds of the dawn of truth upon the mind. They lead from sleep to | gentle waking, so that dreams are gone. And thus they cure for all |
| W1:151.10 | which can look beyond these grim appearances and can behold the | gentle face of Christ in all of them. You will no longer doubt that |
| W1:156.5 | is due to Holiness itself Which walks with you, transforming in Its | gentle Light all things into Its likeness and Its purity. |
| W1:166.8 | you should feel Christ's touch upon your shoulder and perceive His | gentle hand directing you to look upon your gifts. How could you then |
| W1:182.7 | His patience has no limits. He will wait until you hear His | gentle Voice within you, calling you to let Him go in peace along |
| W1:186.13 | His | gentle Voice is calling from the known to the unknowing. He would |

| W1:189.2 | safe from every form of danger and of pain. It offers you a warm and | gentle home in which to stay a while. It blesses you throughout the |
| W1:189.3 | world in which forgiveness shines on everything and peace offers its | gentle light to everyone is inconceivable to those who see a world of |
| W2:272.1 | have given me. I am surrounded by Your Love, forever still, forever | gentle, and forever safe. God's Son must be as You created him. |
| W2:WIRW.2 | for nothing here remains outside forgiveness. And the sights are | gentle. Only happy sights and sounds can reach the mind that has |
| W2:WISC.2 | that permits it to embrace the world and hold you safe within its | gentle advent, which encompasses all living things with you. There is |
| W2:325.1 | From judgment comes a world condemned. And from forgiving thoughts a | gentle world comes forth, with mercy for the holy Son of God, to |
| W2:WIM.1 | timelessness and love's awakening, for fear must slip away under the | gentle remedy it gives. |
| 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 |
| M:4.15 | Therefore God's teachers are wholly | gentle. They need the strength of gentleness, for it is in this that |
| M:4.16 | with joy? The open hands of gentleness are always filled. The | gentle have no pain. They cannot suffer. Why would they not be |
| M:4.22 | unswerving, it is full of trust. Being based on fearlessness, it is | gentle. Being certain, it is joyous, and being confident, it is |
| M:14.2 | more all embracing. Here is it nourished, for here it is needed. A | gentle Savior, born where sin was made and guilt seemed real. Here is |
gentleness (46) | ||
| Tx:6.42 | lies in projecting only the Holy Spirit because, as you see His | gentleness in others, your own mind perceives itself as totally |
| Tx:12.21 | In war he demanded everything and found nothing. For how could the | gentleness of love respond to his demands except by departing in |
| Tx:14.2 | it ever so faintly. You cannot even give a blessing in perfect | gentleness. Would you know of One Who gives forever and Who knows of |
| Tx:14.6 | You know not what you do, but He Who knows is with you. His | gentleness is yours, and all the love you share with God He holds in |
| Tx:14.14 | it would kill. The Holy Spirit sees only guiltlessness, and in His | gentleness, He would release from fear and reestablish the reign of |
| Tx:14.14 | fear and reestablish the reign of love. The power of love is in His | gentleness, which is of God and therefore cannot crucify nor suffer |
| Tx:14.23 | will not attack your sentinels. But bring them to Him, and let His | gentleness teach you that in the light they are not fearful and |
| Tx:16.75 | The stillness and the peace of now enfolds you in perfect | gentleness. Everything is gone except the truth. |
| Tx:17.11 | God made in insanity could be without a hidden spark of beauty which | gentleness could release. |
| Tx:17.18 | For time is cruel in the ego's hands, as it is kind when used for | gentleness. The attraction of the unholy relationship begins to fade |
| Tx:18.98 | the shadows from the world and carrying it safe and sure within its | gentleness to the bright world of new and clean perception. There is |
| Tx:19.50 | messengers are gently sent and return with messages of love and | gentleness. The messengers of fear are harshly ordered to seek out |
| Tx:19.55 | a holy instant, grace is said by everyone together as they join in | gentleness before the table of communion. And I will join you there, |
| Tx:20.12 | door of Heaven, the home we share in quietness, and where we live in | gentleness and peace as one together. |
| Tx:20.26 | the veil of fear upon it? Here are we one, looking with perfect | gentleness upon each other and on ourselves. Here all thoughts of any |
| Tx:23.7 | is conflict, for a mind at war against itself remembers not eternal | gentleness. The means of war are not the means of peace, and what the |
| Tx:24.34 | deadly and dangerous, hated and worthy only of destruction. Whatever | gentleness it offers is but deception, but its hate is real. In |
| Tx:24.45 | very still. He knows where you are going, and He leads you there in | gentleness and blessing all the way. His love for God replaces all |
| Tx:24.49 | brother's holiness the world is still and peace descends on it in | gentleness and blessing so complete that not one trace of conflict |
| Tx:25.3 | but makes Him manifest. To those who know Him not, it carries Him in | gentleness and love to heal their minds. Such is the mission that |
| Tx:25.7 | by looking past it to the light. The veil is lifted through its | gentleness, and nothing hides the face of Christ from its beholders. |
| Tx:25.19 | forth for you to look upon. His sinlessness but pictures yours. His | gentleness becomes your strength, and both will gladly look within |
| Tx:25.30 | The Maker of the world of | gentleness has perfect power to offset the world of violence and hate |
| Tx:25.30 | world of violence and hate that seems to stand between you and His | gentleness. It is not there in His forgiving eyes. And therefore it |
| Tx:25.34 | there is a vision which extends to all of them and covers them in | gentleness and light. And in this widening world of light, the |
| Tx:25.43 | And as he loves them, so he looks upon himself with love and | gentleness. He would no more condemn himself for his mistakes than |
| Tx:26.8 | gifts can never suffer sacrifice and loss. God's justice rests in | gentleness upon His Son and keeps him safe from all injustices the |
| Tx:29.1 | For it would mean His love could harbor just a hint of hate; His | gentleness turn sometimes to attack; and His eternal patience |
| Tx:30.49 | For the truth behind them is so lovely and so still in loving | gentleness, were you aware of it you would forget defensiveness |
| W1:108.11 | quietness. To everyone I offer peace of mind. To everyone I offer | gentleness. |
| W1:122.1 | always? Do you want a quietness that cannot be disturbed, a | gentleness that never can be hurt, a deep, abiding comfort, and a |
| W1:127.8 | thoughts today and help you understand the truth of love. In loving | gentleness, He will abide with you as you allow His Voice to teach |
| W1:152.11 | has been perceived. And in humility the radiance of God's Son, his | gentleness, his perfect sinlessness, his Father's Love, his right to |
| W1:189.4 | world reflects the quietness and peace that shines in them, the | gentleness and innocence they see surrounding them, the joy with |
| W2:250.2 | He is Your Son, my Father. And today I would behold his | gentleness instead of my illusions. He is what I am, and as I see |
| W2:265.1 | instead of in my mind alone. Today I see the world in the celestial | gentleness with which creation shines. There is no fear in it. Let no |
| W2:265.1 | Yet is my mind at one with God's. And so I can perceive creation's | gentleness. |
| W2:265.2 | Let me remember that they are the same, and I will see creation's | gentleness. |
| M:4.15 | Therefore God's teachers are wholly gentle. They need the strength of | gentleness, for it is in this that the function of salvation becomes |
| M:4.15 | place of the unfailing, all-encompassing, and limitless strength of | gentleness? The might of God's teachers lies in their gentleness, for |
| M:4.15 | strength of gentleness? The might of God's teachers lies in their | gentleness, for they have understood their evil thoughts came neither |
| M:4.16 | Joy is the inevitable result of | gentleness. Gentleness means that fear is now impossible, and what |
| M:4.16 | Joy is the inevitable result of gentleness. | Gentleness means that fear is now impossible, and what could come to |
| M:4.16 | and what could come to interfere with joy? The open hands of | gentleness are always filled. The gentle have no pain. They cannot |
| M:4.16 | They are sure they are beloved and must be safe. Joy goes with | gentleness as surely as grief attends attack. God's teachers trust in |
| M:14.1 | illusion of forgiveness, complete, excluding no one, limitless in | gentleness, will cover it, hiding all evil, concealing all sin, and |
gentler (4) | ||
| Tx:23.38 | offering a certain witness that these laws are true. The seeming | gentler forms of the attack are no less certain in their witnessing |
| Tx:27.73 | without the sweat of terror and a scream of mortal fear unless a | gentler dream preceded his awaking and allowed his calmer mind to |
| Tx:27.73 | not to fear, the Voice that calls with love to waken him. [A | gentler dream, in which his suffering was healed and where his |

| Tx:7.68 | In this depressing state, the Holy Spirit reminds you | gently that you are sad because you are not fulfilling your function |
| Tx:11.60 | Son shines in the Mind of the Father and becomes one with it. Very | gently does God shine upon Himself, loving the extension of Himself |
| Tx:13.58 | is deceiving you. Offer your faith to Me, and I will place it | gently in the holy place where it belongs. You will find no deception |
| Tx:13.66 | and will not learn how to be happy. Say therefore to yourself | gently, but with the conviction born of the love of God and of His |
| Tx:13.92 | as right as breathing. There is no effort, and you will be led as | gently as if you were being carried along a quiet path in summer. |
| Tx:14.29 | Defenses, like everything you made, must be | gently turned to your own good, translated by the Holy Spirit from |
| Tx:14.41 | to purity and to grace. The graciousness of God will take them | gently in and cover all their sense of pain and loss with the |
| Tx:15.16 | offered to God on your behalf, and in that instant you will awaken | gently in Him. In the blessed instant, you will let go all your past |
| Tx:15.17 | His joy is yours. Through Him you stand before God's altar, where He | gently translates hell into Heaven. For it is only in Heaven that God |
| Tx:16.3 | Do not use empathy to make the past real and so perpetuate it. Step | gently aside and let the healing be done for you. Keep but one |
| Tx:16.75 | Against the ego's insane notion of salvation, the Holy Spirit | gently lays the holy instant. We said before that the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:17.12 | vision and lets you see the real world reaching quietly and | gently across chaos and removing all illusions which had twisted your |
| Tx:17.41 | but the Thought Itself. What it represents is there. The frame fades | gently, and God rises to your remembrance, offering you the whole of |
| Tx:17.69 | too small or too enormous, too weak or too compelling, but will be | gently turned to its use and purpose. The universe will serve it |
| Tx:18.8 | God you never left and Who never left you. The Holy Spirit takes you | gently by the hand and retraces with you your mad journey outside |
| Tx:18.8 | and retraces with you your mad journey outside yourself, leading you | gently back to the truth and safety within. He brings all your insane |
| Tx:18.11 | your love. Heaven has entered quietly, for all illusions have been | gently brought unto the truth in you and love has shined upon you, |

| Tx:18.60 | your limits melt away, suspending all the “laws” your body obeys and | gently setting them aside. |
| Tx:18.80 | out and find them, for they bring your Self with them. And lead them | gently to your quiet garden and receive their blessing there. So will |
| Tx:18.80 | inside. And you will recognize yourself and see your little garden | gently transformed into the Kingdom of Heaven with all the love of |

| Tx:19.37 | Holy Spirit's purpose from your relationship to others to bring them | gently in [has already begun. This is the way in which He will bring |
| Tx:19.39 | your thanks and gratitude which you have offered Him and lay them | gently before His Creator in the name of His most holy Son. And the |
| Tx:19.40 | in. You are its home, its tranquil dwelling-place from which it | gently reaches out but never leaving you. If you would make it |

| Tx:20.72 | Everything looked upon with vision falls | gently into place according to the laws brought to it by His calm and |
| Tx:20.73 | in your imagination. But vision sets all things right, bringing them | gently within the kindly sway of Heaven's laws. What if you |
| Tx:21.48 | Look | gently on each other and remember the ego's weakness is revealed in |

| Tx:22.27 | what it wills is true. Every illusion brought to its forgiveness is | gently overlooked and disappears. For at its center Christ has been |

| Tx:22.59 | let the darkness be dispelled by Him Who knows the light and lays it | gently in each quiet smile of faith and confidence with which you |
| Tx:23.42 | does not make the gift you give. An empty box, however beautiful and | gently given, still contains nothing. And neither the receiver nor |
| Tx:23.52 | instead of murder. And God Himself and all the lights of Heaven will | gently lean to you and hold you up. For you have chosen to remain |
| Tx:25.43 | The grace of God rests | gently on forgiving eyes, and everything they look on speaks of Him |

| Tx:31.2 | from one apparent lesson to the next in easy steps which lead you | gently from one to another with no strain at all. This cannot be |

| W1:135.19 | everything that happens, all events, past, present, and to come, are | gently planned by One Whose only purpose is your good? Perhaps you |
| W1:135.19 | every step you ever took. While you made plans for death, He led you | gently to eternal life. |
| W1:160.9 | Yet as they give Him welcome, they remember. And He leads them | gently home again where they belong. |

| Tx:8.117 | have priced it by what you give. To believe that it is possible to | get much for little is to believe that you can bargain with God. |
| Tx:8.117 | By giving you receive. But to receive is to accept, not to | get. It is impossible not to have, but it is possible not to know you |
| Tx:9.25 | always attempts to gain some support from the situation. Seeking to | get something for himself, the unhealed healer does not know how to |
| Tx:9.73 | decision. You make it only because you still believe that it can | get you something you want. It follows, then, that you want something |
| Tx:10.82 | You believe in a world that takes, because you believe that you can | get by taking. And by that perception, you have lost sight of the |
| Tx:11.31 | that your hatred is in your mind and not outside it before you can | get rid of it and why you must get rid of it before you can perceive |
| Tx:11.31 | and not outside it before you can get rid of it and why you must | get rid of it before you can perceive the world as it really is. |
| Tx:12.1 | The ultimate purpose of projection, as the ego uses it, is always to | get rid of guilt. Yet, characteristically, the ego attempts to get |
| Tx:12.1 | to get rid of guilt. Yet, characteristically, the ego attempts to | get rid of guilt from its viewpoint only, for much as the ego wants |
| Tx:12.2 | strange a solution the ego's arrangement is. You project guilt to | get rid of it, but you are actually merely concealing it. You do |
| Tx:12.68 | And at its altar it demands you lay all of the things it bids you | get, leaving you no joy in them. |
| Tx:12.69 | will hurt you. For although the ego urges you again and again to | get, it leaves you nothing, for what you get, it will demand of you. |
| Tx:12.69 | you again and again to get, it leaves you nothing, for what you | get, it will demand of you. And even from the very hands that grasped |
| Tx:15.65 | ego embarks is special. The ego establishes relationships only to | get something. And it would keep the giver bound to itself through |
| Tx:15.66 | but it is its purpose. For the ego really believes that it can | get and keep by making guilty. This is its one attraction; an |
| Tx:15.96 | sacrifice, as you are convinced, someone must pay and someone must | get. And the only question which remains to be decided is how much is |
| Tx:16.49 | how much value can he place upon a self that he would give away to | get a better one? |
| Tx:17.19 | even the one with whom the union was sought. For it was formed to | get him out of it and join with fantasies in uninterrupted “bliss.” |
| Tx:18.50 | What else is there to give? The belief that you could give and | get something else, something outside yourself, has cost you the |
| Tx:19.40 | The first obstacle that peace must flow across is your desire to | get rid of it. For it cannot extend unless you keep it. You are the |
| Tx:19.46 | The little insane wish to | get rid of Him Who you invited in and push Him out must produce |

| Tx:19.59 | We said that peace must first surmount the obstacle of your desire to | get rid of it. Where the attraction of guilt holds sway, peace is not |

| Tx:26.66 | to each of them. No wishes lie between a brother and his own. To | get from one is to deprive them all. And yet to bless but one gives |
| Tx:26.88 | else? And is this innocence which your attack on him attempts to | get? Is it not retribution for your own attack upon the Son of God |
| Tx:27.39 | which you should choose. The others are not true. What can the body | get that you would want the most of all? It is your servant and your |
| Tx:27.78 | paper strips the world proclaims as valuable and good. It works to | get them, doing senseless things, and tosses them away for senseless |
| Tx:29.4 | until you both elect to meet again. And then your bodies seem to | get in touch and signify a meeting-place to join. But always is it |

| Tx:30.14 | one in which you get your answer to your question. And you will not | get it, for it would destroy the day by robbing you of what you |
| Tx:30.22 | suffice to take you further. You are not coerced but merely hope to | get a thing you want. And you can say in perfect honesty, |
| W1:16.4 | which tends to elude the search. This is quite difficult until you | get used to it. You will find that it is still hard for you not to |
| W1:30.2 | trying to use the new kind of projection. We are not attempting to | get rid of what we do not like by seeing it outside. Instead, we are |
| W1:30.4 | limited to concepts such as “near” and “far.” To help you begin to | get used to this idea, try to think of things beyond your present |
| W1:41.4 | all you see? Today we will make our first real attempt to | get past this dark and heavy cloud and to go through it to the light |

| W1:69.2 | about what we are trying to do. We are literally attempting to | get in touch with the salvation of the world. We are trying to see |
| 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 |

| Tx:14.40 | Yet without Him you are nothing. The Atonement offers you God. The | gift which you refused is held by Him in you. His Spirit holds it |
| Tx:14.74 | Will to do so. With your perfection ever in His sight, He gives the | gift of peace to everyone who perceives the need for peace and who |

| Tx:15.23 | of it. And whatever you offer as a substitute is much too poor a | gift to satisfy you. It is essential that you accept the fact, and |
| Tx:15.27 | and in perfect safety in your minds, untouched by every little | gift the world of littleness would offer you. But for this, you |
| Tx:15.29 | appointed 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:15.57 | in all your brothers as it is in you, or it would be a limited | gift to you. In the holy instant, we share our faith in God's Son |

| Tx:15.88 | long as you would not release him from it, and you have denied his | gift to you. His body cannot give it. And seek it not through yours. |
| Tx:15.89 | without the limits the ego would impose on them can offer you the | gift of freedom. |

| Tx:15.92 | your birth through Him. The only gift I can accept of you is the | gift I gave to you. Release me as I will your release. The time of |
| Tx:15.93 | of God, and his unlimited power is thus restored to him. What other | gift can you offer me, when only this I will to offer you? And to see |
| Tx:15.93 | you? And to see me is to see me in everyone and offer everyone the | gift you offer me. I am as incapable of receiving sacrifice as God |
| Tx:15.93 | giving. And by this limitation, you have limited acceptance of the | gift I offer you. |
| Tx:15.94 | for you. For in our union, you will accept all of our brothers. The | gift of union is the only gift that I was born to give. Give it to |
| Tx:15.94 | you will accept all of 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. |
| Tx:15.94 | you may have it. The time of Christ is the time appointed for the | gift of freedom, offered to everyone. And by your acceptance of it, |

| Tx:17.36 | defense, but you do need defense against your own acceptance of the | gift of death. When you who are truth accept an idea so dangerous to |
| Tx:17.37 | Heaven. 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 | you accept this gift, you will not see the frame at all because the | gift can only be accepted through your willingness to focus all your |

| Tx:17.76 | not 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 | 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:19.109 | 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 | 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 sees |
| 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. Forget |
| 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:20.43 | 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 teaches |
| 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 receiver. |
| 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 not |
| 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 | more 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 you. |
| 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. |
| W2:224.1 | looks to it to give it light. It lights the world as well. It is the | gift my Father gave me, the one as well I give the world. There is no |
| W2:224.1 | my Father gave me, the one as well I give the world. There is no | gift but this that can be either given or received. This is reality, |
| W2:233.1 | Whose tenderness I cannot comprehend but which is yet Your perfect | gift to me. |
| W2:236.2 | thought but Yours. I rule my mind and offer it to You. Accept my | gift, for it is Yours to me. |
| W2:270.1 | Father, Christ's vision is Your | gift to me, and it has power to translate all that the body's eyes |
| W2:WIHS.1 | to knowledge through the grace that God has given Him, to be His | gift to everyone who turns to Him for truth. Across the bridge that |
| W2:WIHS.5 | Accept your Father's | gift. It is a call from Love to Love that it be but itself. The Holy |
| W2:WIHS.5 | call from Love to Love that it be but itself. The Holy Spirit is His | gift by Which the quietness of Heaven is restored to God's beloved |
| W2:287.1 | I go but Heaven? What could be a substitute for happiness? What | gift could I prefer before the peace of God? What treasure would I |
| W2:295.1 | He may use my eyes today and thus redeem the world. He asks this | gift that He may offer peace of mind to me and take away all terror |
| 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 |
| W2:297.1 | Forgiveness is the only | gift I give because it is the only gift I want, and everything I give |
| W2:297.1 | Forgiveness is the only gift I give because it is the only | gift I want, and everything I give I give myself. This is salvation's |
| W2:304.2 | Let me forgive and thus receive salvation for the world. It is Your | gift, my Father, given me to offer to Your holy Son that he may find |
| W2:305.2 | it is Your will that we be saved. Help us today but to accept Your | gift and judge it not. For it has come to us to save us from our |
| W2:306.2 | make an offering sufficient for Your Son. But in Your Love, the | gift of Christ is his. |
| W2:WILJ.1 | Christ's Second Coming gives the Son of God the | gift to hear the Voice for God proclaim that what is false is false |
| W2:WILJ.3 | hell along with you, accept this holy truth: God's Judgment is the | gift of the correction He bestowed on all your errors, freeing you |
| W2:311.1 | and therefore judges falsely. Let us not use it today but make a | gift of it to Him Who has a different use for it. He will relieve you |
| W2:313.1 | in. And love will come wherever it is asked. This vision is Your | gift. The eyes of Christ look on a world forgiven. In His sight are |
| W2:315.1 | speaks a word of gratitude or mercy, and my mind perceives this | gift and takes it as its own. And everyone who finds the way to God |
| W2:316.1 | As every | gift my brothers give is mine, so every gift I give belongs to me. |
| 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 |
| W2:316.1 | on the holy mind my Father loves. His grace is given me in every | gift a brother has received throughout all time and past all time as |
| W2:316.1 | treasure house is full, and angels watch its open doors that not one | gift is lost and only more are added. Let me come to where my |
| W2:322.1 | to give God's ancient messages to me. His memory abides in every | gift that I receive of Him. And every dream serves only to conceal |
| W2:333.2 | the world. For this alone will never fail in anything, being Your | gift to Your beloved Son. |
| W2:WIM.2 | A miracle contains the | gift of grace, for it is given and received as one. And thus it |
| W2:343.1 | The end of suffering cannot be loss. The | gift of everything can but be gain. You only give. You never take |
| W2:343.2 | mercy and the peace of God are free. Salvation has no cost. It is a | gift that must be freely given and received, and it is this that we |
| W2:345.1 | here on earth, the miracle is closer to Your gifts than any other | gift which I can give. Then let me give this gift alone today, which, |
| W2:345.1 | gifts than any other gift which I can give. Then let me give this | gift alone today, which, born of true forgiveness, lights the way |
| W2:347.1 | It is sick. But You have offered freedom, and I choose to claim Your | gift today. And so I give all judgment to the One You gave to me to |
| W2:349.1 | and make my own. 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 |
| W2:WAI.3 | which through our joint forgiveness is redeemed. And this, our | gift, is therefore given us. We look on everyone as brothers and |
| W2:FL.5 | We will not end this year without the | gift our Father promised to His holy Son. We are forgiven now. And we |
| M:4.7 | instead; where he thought something was asked of him, he finds a | gift bestowed on him. |
| M:6.2 | appear to have been received. It is not up to him to judge when his | gift should be accepted. Let him be certain it has been received and |
| M:6.3 | done that, they have also given the outcome, for that is part of the | gift. No one can give if he is concerned with the result of the |
| M:6.3 | giving itself, and neither the giver nor the receiver would have the | gift. Trust is an essential part of giving; in fact, it is the part |
| M:6.3 | that guarantees the giver will not lose but only gain. Who gives a | gift and then remains with it to be sure it is used as the giver |
| M:6.4 | It is the relinquishing of all concern about the | gift that makes it truly given. And it is trust that makes true |
| M:6.4 | And it is the Holy Spirit in the mind of the giver Who gives the | gift to Him. How can it be lost ? How can it be ineffectual? How can |
| M:6.4 | it be wasted? God's treasure house can never be empty. And if one | gift were missing, it would not be full. Yet is its fullness |
| M:7.1 | for giving truly, and so he has not received the benefit of his | gift. |
| M:7.3 | he can give it. If he doubts this, let him remember Who gave the | gift and Who received it. Thus is his doubt corrected. He thought the |
| M:7.4 | the opposite of love, regardless of the form it takes. Doubt not the | gift, and it is impossible to doubt its result. This is the certainty |
| M:8.6 | will put them all in one category—they are unreal. This is the | gift of its Teacher—the understanding that only two categories are |
| M:17.2 | of help the teacher gives to those who need his aid? Here is his | gift most clearly given him. For he will give only what he has chosen |
| M:17.2 | For he will give only what he has chosen for himself. And in this | gift is his judgment upon the holy Son of God. |
| M:20.4 | better choice? Which gives you more? A tranquil mind is not a little | gift. Would you not rather live than choose to die? |
| M:20.6 | 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. Why would you |

| W1:42.2 | place at the right time. Such is the strength of God. Such are His | gifts. |
| W1:42.6 | God's | gifts to me must be mine because He gave them to me. |
| W1:66.10 | to you, it must be the gift of the ego. Does the ego really have | gifts to give, being itself an illusion and offering only the |
| W1:66.10 | to give, being itself an illusion and offering only the illusion of | gifts? |
| W1:98.10 | and gladness. Do not lose one chance to be the glad receiver of His | gifts, that you may give them to the world today. |
| W1:98.11 | will open up the way to happiness, and peace and trust will be His | gifts, His answer to your words. He will respond with all His faith |
| W1:99.15 | truth of your completeness, unity, and peace. You cannot lose the | gifts your Father gave. You do not want to be another self. You have |
| W1:100.4 | God wills perfect happiness for all who will accept their Father's | gifts as theirs. |
| W1:104.1 | what He wills. Yet must there be a place made ready to receive His | gifts. They are not welcomed gladly by a mind which has instead |
| W1:104.1 | are not welcomed gladly by a mind which has instead received the | gifts it made where His belong, as substitutes for them. |
| W1:104.2 | Today we would remove all meaningless and self-made | gifts which we have placed upon the holy altar where God's gifts |
| W1:104.2 | 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. His are |
| W1:104.2 | placed upon the holy altar where God's gifts belong. These are the | gifts which are our own in truth. His are the gifts which we |
| W1:104.2 | belong. These are the gifts which are our own in truth. His are the | gifts which we inherited before time was and which will still be ours |
| W1:104.3 | These are the | gifts which are within us now, for they are timeless. And we need not |
| W1:104.6 | Then lay aside the conflicts of the world that offer other | gifts and other goals made of illusions, witnessed to by them, and |
| W1:104.7 | We clear a holy place within our minds before His altar, where His | gifts of peace and joy are welcome and to which we come to find what |
| W1:104.8 | is done already and that joy and peace belong to us as His eternal | gifts. We will not let ourselves lose sight of them between the times |
| W1:104.9 | I seek but what belongs to me in truth. God's | gifts of joy and peace are all I want. |
| W1:105.1 | them, knowing they belong to us. And we will try to understand these | gifts increase as we receive them. They are not like to the gifts the |
| W1:105.1 | these gifts increase as we receive them. They are not like to the | gifts the world can give, in which the giver loses as he gives the |
| W1:105.1 | gives the gift; the taker is the richer by his loss. These are not | gifts, but bargains made with guilt. |
| W1:105.3 | all levels 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 |
| W1:105.4 | 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 increase |
| W1:105.9 | Thus you prepare yourself to recognize God's | gifts to you and let your mind be free of all that would prevent |
| W1:105.12 | to him, see it as but another chance to let yourself receive the | gifts of God as yours. Then bless your brother thankfully, and say: |
| W1:106.1 | however loudly 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 |
| W1:108.12 | It might be helpful, too, to think of one to whom to give your | gifts. He represents the others, and through him you give to all. |
| W1:R3.9 | not given it the opportunity to prove how great are its potential | gifts to you. |
| W1:117.3 | to me in truth. Love is my heritage and with it joy. These are the | gifts my Father gave to me. I would accept all that is mine in truth. |
| W1:122.4 | What would you want forgiveness cannot give? What | gifts but these are worthy to be sought? What fancied value, trivial |
| 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 given as |
| W1:122.9 | Remembering the | gifts forgiveness gives, we undertake our practicing today with hope |
| W1:122.12 | to picture. Now we walk directly into light, and we receive the | gifts which have been held in store for us since time began, kept |
| W1:122.13 | Let not your | gifts recede throughout the day, as you return again to meet a world |
| W1:122.13 | meet a world of shifting change and bleak appearances. Retain your | gifts in clear awareness as you see the changeless in the heart of |
| W1:122.13 | the light of truth behind appearances. Be tempted not to let your | gifts slip by and drift into forgetfulness but hold them firmly in |
| W1:122.14 | Remind yourself how precious are these | gifts with this reminder, which has power to hold your gifts in your |
| W1:122.14 | are these gifts with this reminder, which has power to hold your | gifts in your awareness through the day: |
| W1:122.15 | want. Today I have accepted this as true. Today I have received the | gifts of God. |
| W1:123.2 | into the real extent of all the gains which you have made; the | gifts you have received. Be glad today in loving thankfulness your |
| W1:123.3 | to fulfill. Be thankful that your value far transcends your meager | gifts and petty judgments of the one whom God established as His Son. |
| W1:123.6 | For He would offer you the thanks you give, since He receives your | gifts in loving gratitude and gives them back a thousand and a |
| W1:123.6 | and a hundred thousand more than they were given. He will bless your | gifts by sharing them with you, and so they grow in power and in |
| 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 |
| W1:136.13 | its purpose is. Perhaps it sighs a little when you throw away its | gifts, and yet it knows with perfect certainty that what God wills |
| 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 |
| W1:142.1 | [123] I thank my Father for His | gifts to me. |
| W1:153.17 | us do the hour that is yet to come, while thanking Him for all the | gifts He gave us in the one gone by. |
| W1:153.21 | shine from them to all their brothers come from Him. These are His | gifts to you. Defenselessness is all you need to give Him in return. |
| 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. |
| W1:154.15 | is. For as we prove that we accept no will we do not share, our many | gifts from our Creator will spring to our sight and leap into our |
| W1:156.4 | the world is sanctified because of you. All things that live bring | gifts to you and offer them in gratitude and gladness at your feet. |
| 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. |
| W1:162.4 | it changed that it is now the treasury in which God places all His | gifts and all His Love to be distributed to all the world, increased |
| W1:164.3 | nearer than the world are clear to you who will today accept the | gifts He gives. |
| W1:164.9 | the world's unsatisfying goals? Let not today slip by without the | gifts it holds for you receiving your consent and your acceptance. We |
| W1:166.1 | to your happiness. And yet unless your will is one with His, His | gifts are not received. But what would make you think there is |
| 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 |
| W1:166.5 | Yet in his lonely, senseless wanderings, God's | gifts go with him, all unknown to him. He cannot lose them. But he |
| W1:166.8 | and perceive His gentle hand directing you to look upon your | gifts. How could you then proclaim your poverty in exile? He would |
| W1:166.9 | identity. Perhaps God's Word is truer than your own. Perhaps His | gifts to you are real. Perhaps He has not wholly been outwitted by |
| 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 |
| W1:166.13 | 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 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. |
| W1:169.13 | grateful to return, as you were glad to go an instant and accept the | gifts that grace provided you. You carry them back to yourself. And |
| 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 | [186] 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 |
| W1:206.1 | 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 free. For I |
| W2:I.6 | ahead and fix our eyes upon the journey's end. Accept these little | gifts of thanks from us, as through Christ's vision we behold a world |
| W2:WS.3 | altar to the holy Name of God whereon His Word is written, with the | gifts of your forgiveness laid before it and the memory of God not |
| W2:233.2 | no reserve at all. This is His day. And so it is a day of countless | gifts and mercies unto us. |
| W2:234.2 | of Your Love. We recognize our safety and give thanks for all the | gifts You have bestowed on us, for all the loving help we have |
| W2:239.1 | be hidden by a false humility. Let us instead be thankful for the | gifts our Father gave us. Can we see in those with whom He shares His |
| W2:273.2 | can rob me of what You would have me keep? I cannot lose Your | gifts to me. And so the peace You gave Your Son is with me still, in |
| W2:279.2 | loves the Son Whom He created as His own. Would You withhold the | gifts You gave to me? |
| 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. |
| W2:297.2 | and accomplished by Your grace. Thanks be to You for Your eternal | gifts, and thanks to You for my Identity. |
| W2:298.2 | are beside me. Certain is Your way. And I am grateful for Your holy | gifts of certain sanctuary and escape from everything that would |
| 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 |
| W2:315.2 | I thank You, Father, for the many | gifts that come to me today and every day from every Son of God. My |
| W2:315.2 | day from every Son of God. My brothers are unlimited in all their | gifts to me. Now may I offer them my thankfulness that gratitude to |
| 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, |
| M:29.5 | given him by God is but to acknowledge his Creator and accept His | gifts. And His gifts have no limit. To ask the Holy Spirit to decide |
| M:29.5 | God is but to acknowledge his Creator and accept His gifts. And His | gifts have no limit. To ask the Holy Spirit to decide for you is |

| Tx:4.30 | getting something better so that you can do without the thing you | give. “Giving to get” is an inescapable law of the ego, which always |
| Tx:4.52 | It has never really entered your mind to | give up every idea you ever had that opposes knowledge. You retain |

| Tx:5.60 | What is truly blessed is incapable of giving rise to guilt and must | give rise to joy. This makes it invulnerable to the ego because its |

| Tx:7.75 | remember yourselves and teach His way, lest you forget yourselves. | Give only honor to the Sons of the living God and count yourselves |
| Tx:7.76 | those whom God Himself created worthy of honor and whom He honors. | Give them the appreciation which God accords them always, because |
| Tx:7.77 | are blessed. They attack because they believe they are deprived. | Give therefore of your abundance and teach your brothers theirs. Do |

| Tx:7.84 | ego tries to persuade you that it can free you of conflict, lest you | give the ego up and free yourself. The ego, using its own warped |
| Tx:7.88 | errors. But having accepted the errors as yours, do not keep them. | Give them over quickly to the Holy Spirit to be undone completely so |
| Tx:7.96 | 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 you have |
| Tx:7.109 | upon him? Does it keep his heart untouched by fear and allow him to | give always without any sense of loss? Does it teach him that this |
| Tx:7.110 | You who could | give the love of God to everything you see and touch and remember are |
| Tx:8.2 | your learning, but the ego has no power to distract you unless you | give it the power. |
| Tx:8.4 | which you are giving up by attacking them. How can you have what you | give up? You share to have, but you do not give it up yourself. When |
| Tx:8.4 | How can you have what you give up? You share to have, but you do not | give it up yourself. When you give up peace, you are excluding |
| Tx:8.4 | up? You share to have, but you do not give it up yourself. When you | give up peace, you are excluding yourself from it. This is a |
| Tx:8.18 | the perfectly created in union with Perfect Creator. The Father must | give fatherhood to His Son, because His own Fatherhood must be |
| Tx:8.21 | to him, because it is your responsibility to yourself. | Give him his place in the Kingdom, and you will have yours. The |
| Tx:8.27 | aware of the Father's Will myself. This is the awareness I came to | give you, and your problem in accepting it is the problem of this |
| Tx:8.29 | think the world needs peace as much as you do? Do you not want to | give it to the world as much as you want to receive it? For unless |
| Tx:8.29 | do, you will not receive it. If you will to have it of me, you must | give it. Rehabilitation does not come from anyone else. You can have |
| Tx:8.41 | will will never be wanting, and if you want to share it you will. I | give it willingly and gladly, because I need you as much as you need |
| Tx:8.46 | How, then, can you accept anything else or | give anything else and expect joy in return? And what else but joy |
| 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:8.57 | him his. Do not allow him to belittle himself in your mind, but | give him freedom from his belief in littleness and thus escape from |

| 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 | exactly 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:8.118 | can ask of the Holy Spirit, then, only by giving to Him, and you can | give to Him only where you see Him. If you see Him in everyone, |
| Tx:9.5 | his 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 | use 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:9.20 | unhealed healer more carefully now. By definition, he is trying to | give what he has not received. If he is a theologian, he may begin |
| Tx:9.25 | get something for himself, the unhealed healer does not know how to | give and consequently cannot share. He cannot correct because he is |
| Tx:9.32 | of His consistency. When you are inconsistent, you will not always | give rise to joy and so you will not always recognize His |
| Tx:9.47 | you 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:9.79 | you because the value of God's Son is one. When I said, “My peace I | give unto you,” I meant it. Peace came from God through me to you. It |
| Tx:9.83 | harmlessness, and because of this fear, you have been willing to | give up your own perfect helpfulness and your own perfect Help. |
| 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 | sickness 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 not |
| 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 them. |
| Tx:9.94 | messages 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:10.4 | a dark cornerstone hidden, for its protection will not save you. I | give you the lamp and I will go with you. You will not take this |
| 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 | How 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 | given you. Your ability to accept Him depends on your willingness to | give as He gives. Your fatherhood and your Father are one. God willed |
| Tx:10.13 | conflict. 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 only |
| 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:10.29 | quiet of His temple, He waits to give you the peace that is yours. | Give His peace that you may enter the temple and find it waiting for |
| Tx:10.47 | your power. Yet its one claim to your allegiance is that it can | give power to you. Without this belief, you would not listen to it at |
| Tx:10.67 | accept 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 | taking, 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 what |
| 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 | As you 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:11.5 | an appeal for help as what it is, it is because you are unwilling to | give help and to receive it. The analysis of the ego's “real” |
| 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, for |
| 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:11.39 | journey to accomplishment, and the goal He sets before you He will | give you. For He will never deceive God's Son, whom He loves with the |
| 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 | reality, 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:12.55 | cannot give. Yet you can give it, as it was given you. And as you | give it, it shines forth to call you from the world and follow it. |
| Tx:12.61 | has not the power to touch the living world at all. You could not | give it that, and so although you turn in sadness from it, you cannot |
| 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:12.75 | in time. Salvation from the world lies only here. My peace I | give you. Take it of me in glad exchange for all the world has |
| 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 remember |
| Tx:12.76 | that you have taught how to remember you. Thus does the Son of God | give thanks unto his Father for his purity. |
| 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 | they that have been thrown away. You can learn to bless and cannot | give what you have not. If, then, you offer blessing, it must have |
| Tx:13.48 | And 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 thought |
| 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:14.30 | of you together look on them. His judgment must prevail, and He will | give it to you as you join your perception to His. Joining with Him |
| 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 | because 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:14.69 | Do you think that what the Holy Spirit would have you | give He would withhold from you? You have no problems which He cannot |
| 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 you |
| Tx:15.15 | eternal sanctity of God's creation, it is transformed into forever. | Give the eternal instant that eternity may be remembered for you in |
| 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 Himself |
| 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 beyond |
| 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 anything. |
| 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 | stated, is this: The holy instant is a time in which you receive and | give perfect communication. This means, however, that it is a time 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 holy |
| 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 | fact 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 | it 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 | the 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 | him 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 already |
| 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 the |
| 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. And |
| 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 be |
| Tx:15.103 | release is total, and when you have accepted it with me, you will | give it with me. All pain and sacrifice and littleness will disappear |
| 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 | 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 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. Leave |
| 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:16.49 | in return. For how much value can he place upon a self that he would | give away to get a better one? |
| 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 | Him is to accept relationships as real and through their reality to | give over all illusions for the reality of your relationship with |
| Tx:17.2 | things. What you use in fantasy, you deny to truth. Yet what you | give to truth to use for you is safe from fantasy. |
| 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 | with 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 | and 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 | not 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 | offered 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 | light 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:18.31 | your advance to Heaven. When such great light has joined with you to | give the little spark of your desire the power of God Himself, can |
| Tx:18.32 | that you realize that you cannot do more. Do not attempt to | give the Holy Spirit what He does not ask, or you will add the ego |
| 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 | you 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:18.39 | Salvation is easy just because it asks nothing that you cannot | give right now. |
| Tx:18.40 | have become the arbiter of what is possible and remain unwilling to | give place to One Who knows. The whole belief in orders of difficulty |
| Tx:18.50 | What could God | give but knowledge of Himself? What else is there to give? The belief |
| 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 you |
| 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:18.78 | encompassing only to preserve and keep complete what it would | give. In your tiny kingdom, you have so little! Should it not, then, |
| Tx:18.79 | offering rest to those who lost their way and wander in the dust. | Give them a place of refuge, prepared by love for them where once a |
| 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 | making 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:19.34 | You will be healed of sin and all its ravages the instant that you | give it no power over each other. And you will help each other |
| Tx:19.37 | extends from deep inside yourselves to embrace all the Sonship and | give it rest, it will encounter many obstacles. Some of them you will |
| Tx:19.38 | You will not wait to | give him this, for you will call to him and he will answer you, |
| Tx:19.38 | in your call the 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 |
| Tx:19.57 | that it can get you what you want. While you believe that it can | give you pleasure, you will also believe that it can bring you pain. |
| 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:19.69 | in its patience, and wholly loving. It will accept you wholly and | give you peace. Yet it can unite only with what already is at peace |
| 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:19.70 | in what is faithful. And the correction of your mistake will | give you grounds for faith. |
| 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:19.103 | surely as God created every living thing and loves it. And he will | give it truly, for it will be both offered and received. |
| Tx:19.104 | of you what you received of him.] Redemption has been given you to | give each other, and thus receive it. Whom you forgive is free, and |
| Tx:19.104 | other, and thus receive it. Whom you forgive is free, and what you | give you share. Forgive the sins your brother thinks he has committed |
| Tx:19.106 | Give each other faith, for faith and hope and mercy are yours to | |
| Tx:19.106 | Give each other faith, for faith and hope and mercy are yours to | give. Into the hands that give the gift is given. Look on your |
| Tx:19.106 | for faith 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 |
| Tx:19.106 | would receive. It is almost Easter, the time of resurrection. Let us | give redemption to each other and share in it that we may rise as one |
| Tx:19.107 | Free your brother here, as I freed you. | Give him the self-same gift, nor look upon him with condemnation of |
| Tx:19.109 | so will his offering be seen and so received. The crucified | give pain because they are in pain. But the redeemed give joy because |
| Tx:19.109 | The crucified give pain because they are in pain. But the redeemed | give joy because they have been healed of pain. Everyone gives as he |
| Tx:20.2 | thorns in one hand and lilies in the other, uncertain which to | give. Join now with me and throw away the thorns, offering the lilies |
| Tx:20.6 | can value, and only the mind decides on what it would receive and | give. And every gift it offers depends on what it wants. It will |

| Tx:20.15 | the open door of Heaven, and recognize the home that called to you. | Give joyously to one another the freedom and the strength to lead you |
| Tx:20.24 | 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 you? Did |
| Tx:20.24 | its attainment of the one thing that still would have it be unholy. | Give it no power to adjust the means and end. |
| Tx:20.28 | Nothing can hurt you unless you | give it the power to do so. For you give power as the laws of this |
| Tx:20.28 | Nothing can hurt you unless you give it the power to do so. For you | give power as the laws of this world interpret giving—as you give, |
| Tx:20.28 | you give power as the laws of this world interpret giving—as you | give, you lose. It is not up to you to give power at all. Power is of |
| Tx:20.28 | interpret giving—as you give, you lose. It is not up to you to | give power at all. Power is of God, given by Him and reawakened by |
| Tx:20.28 | by Him and reawakened by the Holy Spirit, Who knows that as you | give, you gain. He gives no power to sin, and therefore it has none; |
| Tx:20.30 | insane laws were made to guarantee that you would make mistakes and | give them power over you by accepting their results as your just due. |
| Tx:20.31 | experience only its results. Their power is of God, and they will | give it only to what God has given to share with them. Nothing but |
| Tx:20.32 | The sinless | give as they received. See, then, the power of sinlessness within |
| Tx:20.38 | has the power to hold the unity of the Son of God together. You | give to one another for everyone, and in your gift is everyone made |
| Tx:20.38 | is everyone made glad. Forget not Who has given you the gifts you | give, and through your not forgetting this will you remember Who gave |
| Tx:20.38 | not forgetting this will you remember Who gave the gifts to Him to | give to you. |

| Tx:20.69 | see your brother sinless that Christ may rise before your vision and | give you joy. And place no value on your brother's body, which holds |
| Tx:20.76 | looks within to find itself and then looks out. All meaning that you | give the world outside must thus reflect the sight you saw within; or |
| Tx:21.2 | to accept as yours. And if this is its meaning, then the power to | give it joy must lie within you.] |
| Tx:21.4 | which way leads to darkness, which to light. Judgment will always | give you false directions, but vision shows you where to go. Why |
| Tx:21.17 | gift you offer to the Holy Spirit, and even this He gave to you to | give yourself. For by this gift is given you the power to release |
| Tx:21.17 | this gift is given you the power to release your savior that he may | give salvation unto you. |
| Tx:21.18 | offering. Withhold it, and you keep the world as now you see it. | Give it away, and everything you see goes with it. Never was so much |
| Tx:21.20 | Perhaps you do not see the need for you to | give this little offering. Look closer, then, at what it is. And very |
| Tx:21.22 | The Holy Spirit can | give you faith in holiness and vision to see it easily enough. But |
| Tx:21.31 | to place equal faith in opposite directions. What faith you | give to sin you take away from holiness. And what you offer holiness |
| Tx:21.34 | vision of a holy relationship is all you want to see. Then will you | give your faith to holiness, desiring and believing in it because of |
| Tx:21.37 | Join your awareness to what has been already joined. The faith you | give each other can accomplish this. For He Who loves the world is |
| Tx:21.40 | 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. But in |
| 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 | your 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 | all 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 | your 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 He |
| 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:23.40 | If not, you walk alone. Ask, then, your Friend to join with you and | give you certainty of where you go. |
| 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:24.26 | And so he calls it “unforgivable” and makes it sin. How can he then | give his forgiveness wholly, when he would not receive it for |
| Tx:24.27 | would protect what God created not. And yet this idol that seems to | give you power has taken it away. For you have given your brother's |
| 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 out |
| 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:25.86 | to take forgiveness for yourself. The miracle that you receive, you | give. Each one becomes an illustration of the law on which salvation |
| 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 the |
| 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 have |
| 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 remove |
| 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 | you 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 living |
| 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:31.11 | beyond it that appeals for peace and joy. And all the world will | give you joy and peace. For as you hear, you answer. And behold! Your |
| 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:31.27 | not believe that you deserved attack, it never would occur to you to | give attack to anyone at all. Why should you? What would be the gain |
| 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 |
| W1:44.10 | And do not forget that they cannot hold you to the world unless you | give them the power to do so. |
| 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 |
| W1:71.12 | Give Him full charge of the rest of the practice period, and let Him | |
| W1:74.2 | finding it. The idea itself is wholly true. Therefore it cannot | give rise to illusions. Without illusions, conflict is impossible. |
| W1:75.9 | you to vision. Understand that the Holy Spirit never fails to | give the gift of sight to the forgiving. Believe He will not fail you |
| 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 |
| W1:107.8 | Today belongs to truth. Give truth its due, and it will | give you yours. You were not meant to suffer and to die. Your Father |
| 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 giving |
| 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:R3.3 | you are unwilling to devote the time to it which you are asked to | give. Do not deceive yourself in this. Unwillingness can be most |
| 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:R3.6 | will not fail. The wisdom of your mind will come to your assistance. | Give direction at the start, and then lean back in quiet faith and |
| 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. |
| W1:119.3 | [108] To | give and to receive are one in truth. I will forgive all things |
| W1:119.7 | To | give and to receive are one in truth. |
| 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 |
| W1:161.14 | Give me your blessing, holy Son of God. I would behold you with the | |
| 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, |
| W2:280.2 | on the Son You love and You created limitless. The honor that I | give to him is Yours, and what is Yours belongs to me as well. |
| 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 |

| Tx:1.31 | to you, or rather to restore it to your awareness. You were | given everything when you were created, just as everyone was. When |
| Tx:1.70 | reversal of the Golden Rule rests. As these false underpinnings are | given up, the equilibrium is temporarily experienced as unstable. |
| Tx:1.88 | All His Children have His total love, and all His gifts are freely | given to everyone alike. “Except ye become as little children” means |
| Tx:2.1 | somewhat unusual since they are not the first definitions which are | given. Nevertheless, the fact that each of them does appear in the |
| Tx:2.12 | of man by God with free will because all loving creation is freely | given. Nothing in these statements implies any sort of level |
| Tx:2.14 | him. In reality, this is his only choice, because his free will was | given him for his own joy in creating the perfect. |

| Tx:2.100 | essentially a device by which all compromise in this respect can be | given up. It seems to be abolished by degrees because time itself |
| Tx:2.105 | magic in some form is virtually inevitable. His will to create was | given him by his own Creator, Who was expressing the same will in His |

| Tx:3.60 | lack, those who perceive have not totally accepted the Atonement and | given themselves over to truth. Perception is a separated state, and |
| Tx:3.67 | but only because He knows that it makes them unhappy. Souls were | given their true Authorship, but men preferred to be anonymous when |
| Tx:3.75 | and gave it freely to His creations. The symbolism here has been | given many interpretations, but you may be sure that any |
| Tx:3.80 | is conflictless. Your kingdom is not of this world because it was | given you from beyond this world. Only in this world is the idea of |
| Tx:4.4 | Repetition compulsions can be endless unless they are | given up by an act of will. Do not make the pathetic human error of |
| Tx:4.54 | repressed by the ego, is the declaration of your release. God has | given you everything. This is the one fact that means the ego does |
| Tx:4.62 | do not be deceived by it. Know it offers you nothing. When you have | given up this voluntary dispiriting, you will see how your mind can |
| Tx:4.97 | its function, but it cannot endow itself with functions it was not | given. That is why the mind cannot totally lose the ability to |
| Tx:5.6 | not lessen it. All of it is still yours, although all of it has been | given away. Further, if the person to whom you give it accepts it as |
| Tx:5.8 | Thoughts increase by being | given away. The more who believe in them, the stronger they become. |
| Tx:5.19 | 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 to it. The Holy Spirit |
| Tx:5.26 | Yet you have other devotions now. Your divided devotion has | given you the two voices, and you must choose at which altar you will |
| Tx:5.30 | aware of the fact that there is another way or another Voice. Having | given this invitation to the Holy Spirit, I could come to provide the |
| Tx:5.33 | of which it is a part. Therefore, it is strengthened by being | given away. It increases in you as you give it to your brothers. |
| Tx:5.40 | not an act, but a thought. Therefore, the idea of separation can be | given away, just as the idea of unity can. Either way, the idea will |
| Tx:5.44 | very understanding therapist except for yourself. That exception has | given you more than perception for others because of what you saw in |
| Tx:5.70 | also turn back to full creation the instant it has done so. Having | given up its thought disorder, the proper ordering of thought becomes |
| Tx:5.73 | your brothers. How else can the chance to claim it for yourself be | given you? What you do not understand is that the two voices speak |
| Tx:5.78 | to release you from fear. The part of your thought which you have | given to the ego will merely return to the Kingdom, where your whole |
| Tx:5.80 | His verdict will always be “Thine is the Kingdom” because He was | given you to remind you of what you are. |
| Tx:5.82 | truly give, because He is so truly blessed, and because He has been | given you so freely by God, you must give Him as you received Him. |
| Tx:6.1 | that [the attack was unjust, and] you are in no way responsible. | Given these three wholly irrational premises, the equally irrational |

| Tx:6.51 | question. The time that was spent on questioning in the dream has | given way to creation and to its eternity. |
| Tx:6.94 | mind outside it. What you have made has thus divided your will and | given you a sick mind which must be healed. Your vigilance against |
| Tx:7.20 | because if the latter were true, the subject would not do anything. | Given variable motivation, he will do something, but you cannot |
| Tx:7.35 | All abilities, then, should be | given over to the Holy Spirit, Who knows how to use them properly. He |
| 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 use it, |
| Tx:7.75 | The gift of life is yours to give because it was | given you. You are unaware of your gift, because you do not give it. |
| Tx:7.92 | God, and any totality must include God. Everything He created is | given all His power, because it is part of Him and shares His Being |

| Tx:7.110 | the Kingdom with this lesson in his heart has healed the Sonship and | given thanks to God. Everyone who learns this lesson has become the |
| Tx:7.111 | recognize His gift in anyone else, you have acknowledged what He has | given you. Nothing is as easy to perceive as truth. This is the |
| Tx:8.9 | to whom a Son of God should turn to find himself? The ego has never | given you a sensible answer to anything. Simply on the grounds of |
| Tx:8.16 | highest and to you, because He has so willed it. Ask and it shall be | given you, because it has already been given. Ask for light and learn |
| Tx:8.16 | it. Ask and it shall be given you, because it has already been | given. Ask for light and learn that you are light. If you want |
| Tx:8.19 | or lose sight of yourself. Whenever two Sons of God meet, they are | given another chance at salvation. Do not leave anyone without giving |
| Tx:8.23 | to suffer for a wrong decision, including you. That is why He has | given you the means for undoing it. Through His power and glory, all |
| Tx:8.49 | to me, because I asked it of Him and learned of what He had already | given. Our function is to function together, because apart from each |
| Tx:8.50 | You who are God's own treasure do not regard yourselves as valuable. | Given this belief, you cannot understand anything. I share with God |
| Tx:8.52 | What God has willed for you is yours. He has | given His Will to His treasure, whose treasure it is. Your heart lies |
| Tx:8.55 | is the service it can render God on behalf of the function He has | given it. |
| Tx:8.88 | do, and it is impossible that I could do things you cannot do. | Given this, and given this quite literally, there can be nothing |
| Tx:8.88 | is impossible that I could do things you cannot do. Given this, and | given this quite literally, there can be nothing which prevents you |
| Tx:8.98 | Giver for what you do not want, you are asking for what cannot be | given, because it was never created. It was never created, because it |
| Tx:8.109 | will ensure a response. Yet it is equally certain that no response | given by the Holy Spirit will ever be one which would increase fear. |
| Tx:9.11 | The Atonement is a lesson in sharing, which is | given you because you have forgotten how to do it. The Holy Spirit |
| Tx:9.35 | wake them, their gratitude and their appreciation of what you have | given them will teach you its value. They will become the witnesses |
| Tx:9.38 | God's Will is your salvation. Would He not have | given you the means to find it? If He wills you to have it, He must |
| Tx:9.75 | His Mind. He will not limit your power to help them, because He has | given it to you. Do not be afraid of it, because it is your |
| Tx:9.88 | the chaotic is without meaning because it is without God. You have | given your peace to the gods you made, but they are not there to take |
| Tx:9.103 | created for you for the misery you have made for yourselves. God has | given you the means for undoing what you have made. Listen, and you |
| Tx:9.105 | Him. His is the only Fatherhood, and it is yours only because He has | given it to you. Your gifts to yourself are meaningless, but your |
| Tx:9.105 | but your gifts to your creations are like His because they are | given in His Name. That is why your creations are as real as His. Yet |
| Tx:10.10 | God has | given you a place in His Mind which is yours forever. Yet you could |
| Tx:10.10 | is yours forever. Yet you could keep it only by giving it, as it was | given you. Could you be alone there if it was given you because God |
| Tx:10.10 | giving it, as it was 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 |
| Tx:10.11 | Give, then, without limit and without end to learn how much He has | given you. Your ability to accept Him depends on your willingness to |
| Tx:10.13 | your will, be capable of this? Your will is His Life, which He has | given to you. Even in time you cannot live apart from Him, for sleep |
| Tx:10.21 | Father's be wholly joined. To have Him is to be like Him, and He has | given Himself to you. You who have God must be as God, for His |
| Tx:10.31 | anything, but you are saved for glory. Glory is your inheritance, | given your Soul by its Creator that you might extend it. Yet if you |
| Tx:10.51 | The ego believes that to accomplish its goal is happiness. But it is | given you to know that God's function is yours and happiness cannot |
| Tx:10.64 | without question as His own. Who, then, is your own? The Father has | given you all that is His, and He Himself is yours with them. Guard |
| Tx:10.65 | a part of equal value. God does not judge His blameless Son. Having | given Himself to him, how could it be otherwise? |
| Tx:10.66 | his own crucifixion, and you cannot assign to death whom God has | given eternal life. The dream of crucifixion still lies heavy on your |
| Tx:10.68 | and no measure. To God all things are possible. And to Christ it is | given to be like the Father. |
| Tx:11.19 | can defeat 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. |
| Tx:11.24 | wrongly, and they are poor indeed! Because they are in need, it is | given you to help them since you are among them. Consider how |
| Tx:11.41 | is the Will of the Father. You pay no price for life, for that was | given you, but you do pay a price for death, and a very heavy one. If |
| Tx:11.52 | You need offer only undivided attention. Everything else will be | given you. For it is your will to learn aright, and nothing can |
| Tx:11.76 | overcome death for myself alone? And would eternal life have been | given me of the Father unless He had also given it to you? When you |
| Tx:11.76 | eternal life have been given me of the Father unless He had also | given it to you? When you learn to make me manifest, you will never |
| Tx:11.79 | He knows what it is. You who knew have forgotten, and unless He had | given you a way to remember, you would have condemned yourselves to |
| Tx:11.84 | The real world was | given you by God in loving exchange for the world you made and which |
| Tx:11.88 | that God's Son is not guilty. He deserves only love because he has | given only love. He cannot be condemned because he has never |
| Tx:11.92 | everything unworthy of the Son of God, for such was His mission, | given Him by God. And what God gives has always been. |
| Tx:12.15 | death is more valued than your living oneness, and what is | given you is not so dear as what you made. You are more afraid of God |
| Tx:12.22 | your request for pain, for suffering is not of His creation. Having | given you creation, He could not take it from you. He could but |
| Tx:12.33 | eternal. In this exchange it is extended, for it increases as it is | given. The other has many forms, for the content of individual |
| Tx:12.39 | not what you do can learn what insanity is and look beyond it. It is | given you to learn how to deny insanity and come forth from your |
| 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 you must |
| Tx:12.43 | You have but two emotions, and one you made and one was | given you. Each is a way of seeing, and different worlds arise from |
| Tx:12.43 | arise from their different visions. See through the vision that is | given you, for through Christ's vision He beholds Himself. And seeing |
| Tx:12.43 | see as you look with Him, for His vision is His gift of love to you, | given Him of the Father for you. |
| Tx:12.51 | light that is offered you. For the light of perfect vision is freely | given as it is freely received and can be accepted only without |
| Tx:12.54 | is in you. Yet you will find it through its witnesses, for having | given light to them, they will return it. Everyone you see in light |
| Tx:12.55 | 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 call you from the |
| Tx:12.55 | find another. This other world is bright with love, which you have | given it. And here will everything remind you of your Father and His |
| Tx:12.57 | ensuring the real world for you when you wake. In your name He has | given for you and given you the gifts He gave. God's Son is still as |
| Tx:12.57 | world for you when you wake. In your name He has given for you and | given you the gifts He gave. God's Son is still as loving as his |
| Tx:12.66 | yours, being the gift of God unto His Son. Your one reality was | given you, and by it God created you as one with Him. |
| Tx:12.76 | for as it is my gift to you, so was it the Father's gift to me, | given me through His Spirit. The sound of it will banish sorrow from |
| Tx:13.4 | 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 share. His |
| Tx:13.9 | Heaven. You are the witnesses to the Fatherhood of God, and He has | given you the power to create the witnesses to [yours, which is as |
| Tx:13.12 | and where it is invested determines its reward. For faith is always | given what is treasured, and what is treasured is returned to you. |
| Tx:13.21 | use them.] For by preempting for your own ends what you should have | given to Him, He cannot use them unto your release. No one who would |
| Tx:13.27 | Now it is | given you to heal and teach, to make what will be now. As yet it is |
| Tx:13.40 | this. Fear not the Holy Spirit will fail in what your Father has | given Him to do. The Will of God can fail in nothing. |
| Tx:13.51 | to defend and love. They will not be taken from him. But they can be | given up by him, for the Source of their undoing is in him. There is |
| Tx:13.63 | them, and they will not leave you asleep. The vision of Christ is | given the very instant that it is perceived. Where everything is |
| Tx:13.70 | asked of God's Son except by himself and of himself. Every chance | given him to heal is another opportunity to replace darkness with |
| Tx:13.72 | 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 or choose |
| Tx:13.74 | they do not believe that what they want is good. Yet will was | given them because it is holy and will bring to them all that they |
| Tx:13.81 | gracious is it to decide all things through Him Whose equal love is | given equally to all alike! He leaves you no one outside yourself, |
| Tx:13.88 | knowledge. For what He knows not cannot be and therefore cannot be | given. Ask not to be forgiven, for this has already been |
| Tx:14.6 | of you has a special part to play in the Atonement, but the message | given to each to share is always the same—God's Son is guiltless. |
| 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 him, or you |
| Tx:14.13 | holy ground. Remember for everyone your Father's power that He has | given him. Believe not that you cannot teach His perfect peace. Stand |
| Tx:14.29 | to Him it is so easy that it was accomplished the instant it was | given Him for you. Do not delay yourselves in your return to peace by |
| 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 asked to do |
| 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 the |
| Tx:14.32 | He is wholly faithful, for He shared with God the promise that was | given Him to share with you. |
| Tx:14.33 | however much or little valued, He will replace with the one promise | given unto Him to lay upon the altar to your Father and His Son. No |
| Tx:14.36 | there are you. Such is the truth. Nothing can change the knowledge | given you by God into unknowingness. Everything God created knows its |
| Tx:14.37 | the Son, for whom it was intended. To whom God gives Himself, He is | given. Your little gifts will vanish on the altar where He has placed |
| Tx:14.51 | anyone. There is no order of difficulty here. A call for help is | given help. |
| Tx:14.55 | you bring with you a light so powerful that what you see is | given meaning. The lonely journey fails because it has excluded what |
| Tx:14.59 | 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? What have you taught |
| Tx:14.66 | 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 in your |
| Tx:15.19 | As long as you remain uncertain, it can be only because you have not | given complete release. And because of this, you have not given one |
| Tx:15.19 | have not given complete release. And because of this, you have not | given one single instant completely to the Holy Spirit. For when you |
| Tx:15.20 | And here it is, all in this instant, complete, accomplished, and | given wholly. |
| Tx:15.21 | experience yourself as not separate. Fear not that you will not be | given help in this. God's Teacher and His lesson will support your |
| Tx:15.26 | His Son, and His Son cannot be content with less than his Father has | given him. We asked you once before, “Would you be hostage to the ego |
| Tx:15.30 | poor appreciation of yourself and all the little offerings you have | given slip into nothingness. Holy Child of God, when will you learn |
| Tx:15.33 | unwilling to attempt to grasp for peace yourself, salvation will be | given you. Yet think not you can substitute your plan for His. |
| Tx:15.34 | rises above the stars and reaches even to Heaven because of what is | given it. |
| Tx:15.37 | His. I call you to fulfill your holy part in the plan that He has | given to the world for its release from littleness. God would have |
| Tx:15.42 | into a mind that has decided to oppose it. For the holy instant is | given and received with equal willingness, being the acceptance of |
| 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 | because 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 | the 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 call |
| Tx:16.77 | What God has | given you is truly given and will be truly received. For God's gifts |
| 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:17.6 | denied by both of you. And you will see forgiveness where you have | given it. |
| Tx:17.9 | of all in God's plan of Atonement. All else is learned, but this is | given, complete and wholly perfect. No one but Him Who planned |
| 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 | hatred 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 to |
| 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 | Look 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 | where 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 | His 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 of |
| 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:17.76 | What has been demonstrated has called for faith and has been | given it. Now it becomes a fact from which faith can no longer be |
| 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 you. |
| 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 back. |
| 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 | You merely ask the question. The answer is | given. Seek not to answer it, but merely receive the answer as it is |
| Tx:18.36 | given. 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 | 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 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 | sight 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 “holiness” |
| 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 | means 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:19.98 | together in a holy instant, here in this place where the purpose | given in a holy instant has led you. And let us join in faith that He |
| Tx:19.104 | will 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 | 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 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 asked |
| 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 | 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 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 | And 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:20.60 | are difficult. Yet how can they be difficult if they are merely | given you? They guarantee the goal, and they are perfectly in line |
| 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 | Faithlessness 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 for |
| Tx:21.65 | are 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 | yours. 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 | an enemy in which you are not helpless, the means to see it will be | given you. |
| Tx:21.84 | perceived 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, God |
| 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 | For here the final question is already answered and what you ask for | given. Here is the future now, for time is powerless because of your |
| 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 | is 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:22.58 | Seek not to change it nor to substitute another goal. [This one was | given you and only this.] Accept this one and serve it willingly, for |
| 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 | can 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 to |
| 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 can be |
| 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 so |
| 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, and |
| 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 because |
| 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 the |
| Tx:25.75 | How little need you give the Holy Spirit that simple justice may be | given you! |
| Tx:25.79 | until reluctance to receive it disappears and you are willing it be | given you. God's justice warrants gratitude, not fear. Nothing 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 | than 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 forms. |
| 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 | it 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 a |
| 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 | [Correction you would do must separate, because that is the function | given it by you. When you perceive correction is the same as pardon, |
| Tx:27.24 | And so your own Identity is found. Yet must He work with what is | given Him, and you allow Him only half your mind. And thus He |
| 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:27.53 | for He knows it is a gift of love unto His Son, and therefore is it | given unto Him. |
| 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 | let 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:28.12 | How gladly does He offer them unto the one for whom He has been | given them! And His Creator shares His thanks because He would not be |
| 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 | where 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:29.56 | Nothing! It must be believed before it seems to come to life and | given power that it may be feared. Its life and power are its |
| 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 the |
| 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:30.41 | be denied. Your will to be complete is but God's Will, and this is | given you by being His. God knows not form. He cannot answer you in |
| 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:31.14 | The first is a decision that you make. But afterwards the truth is | given you. You would establish truth. And by your wish, you set two |
| Tx:31.16 | is. 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 | us 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 | be 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:31.50 | concept of the self must be undone if any peace of mind is to be | given you. Nor can it be unlearned except by lessons aimed to teach |
| Tx:31.54 | chose for both of you, and what he represents has meaning that was | given it by you. It also shows some glimmering of sight into |
| Tx:31.65 | conceive that you must make the way to Heaven plain. The means are | given you by which to see the world that will replace the one you |
| 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 accepted |
| Tx:31.73 | understands the changes that it needs to let it serve the function | given you to bring you peace that you may offer peace to have it |
| 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 it |
| 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 | wait for this to be resolved. The answer to this problem is already | given me if I will accept it. Time cannot separate this problem from |
| 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 I |
| 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 |
| W2:349.1 | law of love and give what I would find and make my own. It will be | given me because I have chosen it as the gift I want to give. Father, |
| 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.3 | our thoughts to serve the function of salvation. Unto us the aim is | given to forgive the world. It is the goal that God has given us. It |
| W2:FL.3 | 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 own. For |
| W2:FL.3 | not fail to recognize as part of God Himself. And thus His memory is | given back completely and complete. |
| 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 |
| W2:FL.4 | to us. In him resides salvation, offered us through our forgiveness | given unto him. |
| W2:E.1 | His certainty is yours. You need but ask it of Him, and it will be | given you. |

| M:4.4 | tiny wings of a sparrow when the mighty power of an eagle has been | given him? And who would place his faith in the shabby offerings of |
| M:4.25 | in this context. They would be most inappropriate here. What God has | given is so far beyond our curriculum that learning but disappears in |

| M:5.9 | 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 not their voice |
| M:5.9 | voice that speaks the Word of God. They merely give what has been | given them. Very gently they call to their brothers to turn away from |

| M:7.2 | course to follow. He must use his reason to tell himself that he has | given the problem to One Who cannot fail, and recognize that his own |
| M:7.5 | real basis 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:8.4 | than this? Unrecognized by itself, it has itself asked to be | given what will fit into these categories. And having done so, it |

| M:10.6 | he knows that these things need not be. Not one is true. For he has | given up their cause, and they, which never were but the effects of |

| M:20.3 | necessary condition for finding the peace of God. More than this, | given forgiveness there must be peace. For what except attack will |

| M:29.4 | ignorance, this image assumes it knows all things because you have | given that belief to it. Such is your teaching and the teaching of |

| Tx:20.7 | Each gift is an evaluation of the receiver and the | giver. No one but sees in his chosen home an altar to himself. No one |

| Tx:23.42 | given, still contains nothing. And neither the receiver nor the | giver is long deceived. Withhold forgiveness from your brother, and |
| Tx:24.23 | given to kill. No gift that bears its seal but offers treachery to | giver and receiver. Not one glance from eyes it veils but looks on |
| Tx:27.28 | given It conceived to be Its own and not apart from that Its | Giver keeps because it has been shared. In His acceptance of this |

| W1:187.5 | and receiver in the sense the world conceives of them. There is a | giver who retains, another who will give as well. And both must gain |

| M:6.3 | the part that makes sharing possible, the part that guarantees the | giver will not lose but only gain. Who gives a gift and then remains |
| M:6.3 | gives a gift and then remains with it to be sure it is used as the | giver deems appropriate? Such is not giving but imprisoning. |
| M:6.4 | is seeking for him. And it is the Holy Spirit in the mind of the | giver Who gives the gift to Him. How can it be lost ? How can it be |

| Tx:4.99 | “How,” “what,” and “to whom” are irrelevant because real creation | gives everything, since it can create only like itself. Remember that |

| Tx:11.84 | capable of error, and perception has never been. Being corrected, it | gives place to knowledge, which is forever the only reality. The |
| Tx:11.92 | Son of God, for such was His mission, given Him by God. And what God | gives has always been. |
| Tx:12.70 | not block the way to light. And what else could you need? In time He | gives you all the things that you need have and will renew them as |
| Tx:13.51 | which the Mind of God's Son projects have all the power that he | gives to them. The thoughts he shares with God are beyond his belief, |
| Tx:13.62 | of nothing. Accept this key to freedom from the hands of Christ Who | gives it to you that you may join Him in the holy task of bringing |
| Tx:13.74 | their will, the Holy Spirit quietly understands it for them and | gives them what they will without effort, strain, or the impossible |
| Tx:13.75 | little, which is all that you alone can offer yourself, when He Who | gives you everything will simply offer it to you? He will never ask |
| Tx:13.81 | He leaves you no one outside yourself, alone without you. And so He | gives you what is yours because your Father would have you share it |
| Tx:14.2 | give a blessing in perfect gentleness. Would you know of One Who | gives forever and Who knows of nothing except giving? |
| Tx:14.37 | The link with which the Father joins Himself to those He | gives the power to create like Him can never be dissolved. Heaven |
| 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 the |
| Tx:14.51 | you have the power of God in you. That is the reason why the miracle | gives equal blessing to all who share in it, and that is also why |
| Tx:14.60 | by giving it whatever meaning it holds for you. Your learning | gives the present no meaning at all. Nothing you have ever learned |
| Tx:14.70 | You can deny Him, but you cannot call on Him in vain. He always | gives what He has made in place of you. He would establish His bright |
| Tx:14.74 | is not His Will to do so. With your perfection ever in His sight, He | gives the gift of peace to everyone who perceives the need for peace |
| Tx:15.13 | by time and thus make time their friend for them. The Holy Spirit | gives their blessed instant to you through your giving it. As you |
| 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:15.62 | behind it can have faith in love without fear. Yet the Holy Spirit | gives you this faith because He offered it to me and I accepted it. |
| 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:16.8 | He would share everything you give through Him. And that is why He | gives it. |
| Tx:16.49 | special relationship in which it thinks it can accomplish this, it | gives itself away and tries to “trade” itself for the self of |
| Tx:17.20 | yet there to come alive as the relationship is given to Him Who | gives it life and beauty. That is why Atonement centers on the past, |
| 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:18.90 | the sun. Its impenetrable appearance is wholly an illusion. It | gives way softly to the mountain tops which rise above it and has no |
| 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 more. |
| Tx:19.68 | extension 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, for |
| 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 results |
| 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 you. |
| 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 this |
| 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 you |
| 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 would |
| 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 | the 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 the |
| 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 make |
| 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 | more innocent than he. This splits his function off from yours and | gives you both a different role. And so you cannot be perceived as |
| 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 | love. 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 | saving you depends his happiness. For who is savior but the one who | gives salvation? Thus he learns it must be his to give. Unless he |
| 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 | there 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 | to 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 | one 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 |
| W1:16.2 | more self-contradictory concept than that of “idle thoughts.” What | gives rise to the perception of a whole world can hardly be called |
| 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. |
| W1:104.7 | confidence today, aware that what belongs to us in truth is what He | gives. And we would wish for nothing else, for nothing else belongs |
| W1:105.1 | like to the 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 |
| W1:122.2 | offers you, and more. It sparkles in your eyes as you awake and | gives you joy with which to meet the day. It soothes your forehead |
| W1:122.9 | Remembering the gifts forgiveness | gives, we undertake our practicing today with hope and faith that |
| W1:123.6 | you give, since He receives your gifts in loving gratitude and | gives them back a thousand and a hundred thousand more than they were |
| W1:124.5 | We see it in appearances of pain, and pain | gives way to peace. We see it in the frantic, in the sad and the |
| W1:126.7 | as the means by which it is attained, must heal the mind that | gives, for giving is receiving. What remains as unreceived has not |
| W1:126.13 | and His Love. And what you hear of Him you will believe, for what He | gives will be received by you. |
| W1:129.2 | unconcerned with you, quick to avenge, and pitiless with hate. It | gives but to rescind and takes away all things that you have |
| W1:135.1 | defense can save himself? And herein lies the folly of defense—it | gives illusions full reality and then attempts to handle them as |
| W1:137.2 | apart from all the rest to suffer what the others do not feel. It | gives the body final power to make the separation real and keep the |
| W1:137.3 | does his Self appear to be dismembered and without the unity that | gives it life. But healing is accomplished as he sees the body has no |
| W1:151.10 | that you have placed in pain, disaster, suffering, and loss. He | gives you vision which can look beyond these grim appearances and can |
| W1:153.2 | The world | gives rise but to defensiveness. For threat brings anger, anger makes |
| W1:154.8 | them. No one can receive and understand he has received until he | gives. For in the giving is his own acceptance of what he received. |
| W1:154.11 | with His own, that we may be the true receivers of the gifts He | gives. |
| W1:159.10 | an instant dream with Him. His dream awakens us to truth. His vision | gives the means for a return to our unlost and everlasting sanctity |
| W1:162.3 | with the truth before him always. He will save the world because he | gives the world what he receives each time he practices the words of |
| W1:163.5 | would have him be. His epitaph, which death itself has written, | gives no name to him, for he has passed to dust. It says but this: |
| W1:164.2 | increasingly is more and more distinct—an ancient call to which He | gives an ancient answer. You will recognize them both. For they are |
| W1:164.3 | How holy is your practicing today, as Christ | gives you His sight and hears for you and answers in your name the |
| W1:164.3 | than the world are clear to you who will today accept the gifts He | gives. |
| W1:164.9 | if you acknowledge them. You may not see the value your acceptance | gives the world. But this you surely want—you can exchange all |
| W1:166.1 | are given you. God's trust in you is limitless. He knows His Son. He | gives without exception, holding nothing back that can contribute to |
| W1:167.8 | awake. He does not sleep, and His creations cannot share what He | gives not nor make conditions which He does not share with them. The |
| W1:168.6 | to meet us as we come to Him, for what He has prepared for us He | gives and we receive. Such is His Will because He loves His Son. To |
| W1:169.14 | the world, what could be more than what we ask this day of Him Who | gives the grace we ask as it was given Him? |
| W1:181.2 | Perception has a focus. It is this which | gives consistency to what you see. Change but this focus, and what |
| W1:182.9 | He holds the might of Heaven in His hand and calls them friend, and | gives His strength to them that they may see He would be Friend to |
| W1:182.12 | denied. The holy Child remains with you. His home is yours. Today He | gives you His defenselessness, and you accept it in exchange for all |
| W1:183.1 | yours. To call upon His Name is but to call upon your own. A father | gives his son his name, and thus identifies the son with him. His |
| W1:183.12 | but the Son of God who calls upon his Father. And his Father's Voice | gives answer in his Father's holy Name. In this eternal, still |
| W1:185.13 | any gift of God has been requested and received by anyone. God | gives but to unite. To take away is meaningless to Him. And when it |
| W1:187.2 | seems to appear is changed in giving. Yet it must return to him who | gives. Nor can the form it takes be less acceptable. It must be more. |
| W1:187.7 | choose to see all suffering as what it is. The thought of sacrifice | gives rise to all the forms that suffering appears to take. And |
| W1:188.3 | leave a blessing with it which remains forever and forever. What it | gives must be eternal. It removes all thoughts of the ephemeral and |
| W1:191.5 | 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 to |
| W1:193.2 | perception ceases. God does not perceive at all. Yet it is He Who | gives the means by which perception is made true and beautiful enough |
| W1:194.7 | What worry can beset the one who | gives his future to the loving hands of God? What can he suffer? What |
| W1:195.10 | 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 |
| W1:197.7 | Thank your Self for this, for He is grateful only unto God, and He | gives thanks for you unto Himself. To everyone who lives will Christ |
| W1:198.3 | itself the truth. Yet does it point to where the truth must be and | gives direction with the certainty of God Himself. It is a dream in |
| W1:198.5 | in your hand? Is it not more intelligent to thank the One Who | gives salvation, and accept His gift with gratitude? And is it not a |
| W1:199.8 | your mind to this? Then practice well the thought the Holy Spirit | gives you for today. Your brothers stand released with you in it; the |
| W1:R6.10 | of quiet to the Teacher Who instructs in quiet, speaks of peace, and | gives our thoughts whatever meaning they may have. |
| W1:214.1 | 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 what |

| W2:WIM.1 | love's awakening, for fear must slip away under the gentle remedy it | gives. |
| W2:347.1 | it is not real, and in His understanding it is healed. He | gives the miracles my dreams would hide from my awareness. Let Him |

| M:6.4 | for him. And it is the Holy Spirit in the mind of the giver Who | gives the gift to Him. How can it be lost ? How can it be |
| M:7.3 | for himself. The teacher of God is a miracle worker because he | gives the gifts he has received. Yet he must first accept them. He |
| M:7.4 | and it is impossible to doubt its result. This is the certainty that | gives God's teachers the power to be miracle workers, for they have |
| M:8.2 | lies. Finding truth unacceptable, the mind revolts against truth and | gives itself an illusion of victory. Finding health a burden, it |
| M:8.3 | eyes behold. It is the mind that interprets the eyes' messages and | gives them “meaning.” And this meaning does not exist in the world |
| M:10.2 | not judge, but that he cannot. In giving up judgment, he merely | gives up what he did not have. He gives up an illusion; or better, he |

| Tx:12.57 | them through all your nightmares and have been faithful in your | giving, for you were not alone. Even in sleep has Christ protected |
| Tx:13.69 | to offer what you do not want without this penalty. The cost of | giving is receiving. Either it is a penalty from which you suffer or |

| Tx:18.70 | This quiet center, in which you do nothing, will remain with you, | giving you rest in the midst of every busy doing on which you are |
| Tx:18.78 | lack of limit is its meaning. It is completely impartial in its | giving, encompassing only to preserve and keep complete what it would |
| Tx:19.2 | the Son of God. And he is healed because you offered faith to him, | giving him to the Holy Spirit and releasing him from every demand |
| Tx:19.66 | And keep you not apart from what is offered you in gratitude for | giving peace its home in Heaven. Send forth to all the world the |
| Tx:19.106 | 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. He leadeth |
| Tx:20.28 | to do so. For you give power as the laws of this world interpret | giving—as you give, you lose. It is not up to you to give power at |
| Tx:20.29 | own salvation. And so it is with yours. [Salvation is a lesson in | giving, as the Holy Spirit interprets it.] It is the reawakening of |
| Tx:21.84 | has no meaning. Happiness must be constant because it is attained by | giving up the wish for the inconstant. Joy cannot be perceived except |
| Tx:21.88 | of something he believes holds out some promise of the power of | giving it. He may be wrong in what he asks, where, and of what. Yet |
| Tx:21.88 | For he does not desire it while he remains uncertain, and God's | giving must be incomplete unless it is received. |
| Tx:24.72 | wishes it were so. And thus does his perception serve his wish by | giving it appearances of truth. Yet can perception serve another |
| Tx:25.14 | yet your hope that they may still be here prevents you still from | giving up the hopeless and unrewarding task you set yourself. Can it |
| Tx:25.21 | 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. And give the Holy |
| Tx:25.87 | alike. It is received and given equally. It is awareness that | giving and receiving are the same. Because it does not make the same |
| Tx:26.1 | always an attempt to limit loss. The body is itself a sacrifice—a | giving up of power in the name of saving just a little for yourself. |
| Tx:26.3 | outside, just as they are on everything you think is yours. For | giving and receiving are the same. And to accept the limits of a body |
| Tx:26.15 | by everyone. For what you give to Him is everyone's, and by your | giving it can He ensure that everyone receives it equally. |
| Tx:26.55 | and not in opposition to God's Will. Although it falls far short of | giving you your full inheritance, it does remove the obstacles which |
| Tx:26.69 | forgiveness offers now. The interval you think lies in between the | giving and receiving of the gift seems to be one in which you |
| Tx:26.88 | the cost of someone else's guilt. Can innocence be purchased by the | giving of your guilt to someone else? And is this innocence which |
| Tx:27.15 | it maintains what has been done to you deserves no pardon. And by | giving it, you grant your brother mercy but retain the proof he is |
| Tx:27.26 | half until you recognize it is the other half. And this He does by | giving both of you a function that is one, not different. |
| Tx:28.24 | gone before, appearing as a cause. The miracle is the first step in | giving back to cause the function of causation, not effect. For this |
| Tx:28.38 | in them. You find yourself by not accepting them as causing you and | giving you effects. You stand apart from them but not apart from him |
| Tx:28.46 | come from the belief that there is joy in separation, and its | giving up would be a sacrifice. But miracles are the result when you |
| Tx:29.13 | will look on them and take them for your own. He needs your help in | giving them to all who walk apart believing they are separate and |
| Tx:29.20 | must be his to give. Unless he gives, he will not know he has, for | giving is the proof of having. Only those who think that God is |
| Tx:29.20 | must be so. For who could give unless he has, and who could lose by | giving what must be increased thereby? |
| Tx:29.29 | be what they are for. A shadow figure who attacks becomes a brother | giving you a chance to help if this becomes the function of the |
| Tx:29.46 | up and thus to be without and to have suffered loss. And by this | giving up is life renounced. Seek not outside yourself. The search |

| W1:52.4 | Let me learn to give the past away, realizing that in so doing I am | giving up nothing. |
| W1:55.4 | [23] I can escape from the world by | giving up attack thoughts. Herein lies my salvation, and nowhere |
| W1:99.6 | Source it knows. This is the thought whose function is to save by | giving you its function as your own. |
| W1:105.3 | This strange distortion of what | giving means pervades all levels of the world you see. It strips all |
| W1:105.3 | A major learning goal this course has set is to reverse your view of | giving, so you can receive. For giving has become a source of fear, |
| 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 |
| W1:108.9 | To give and to receive are one in truth. I will receive what I am | giving now. |
| W1:111.3 | the gift of God to me. My weakness is the dark His gift dispels by | giving me His strength to take its place. |
| 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 |
| W1:153.15 | a form we will maintain for quite a while. We will begin each day by | giving our attention to the daily thought as long as possible. Five |
| W1:154.3 | you. And that One Voice appoints your function and relays it to you, | giving you the strength to understand it, do what it entails, and to |
| 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. |
| W1:154.11 | We practice | giving Him what He would have that we may recognize His gifts to us. |
| W1:159.2 | now by opening the storehouse of your mind where they are laid and | giving them away. |
| 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 |
| W1:197.5 | realize His gifts are sure, eternal, changeless, limitless, forever | giving out, extending love, and adding to your never-ending joy, |
| W2:225.1 | Father, I must return Your love for me. For | giving and receiving are the same, and You have given all Your love |
| W2:249.1 | The world becomes a place of joy, abundance, charity, and endless | giving. It is now so like to Heaven that it quickly is transformed |
| W2:255.1 | to finding what my Father wills for me, accepting it as mine and | giving it to all my Father's Sons, along with me. |
| W2:259.1 | what but this could be the source of fear, obscuring God's creation, | giving love the attributes of fear and of attack? |
| W2:282.2 | is mine. Such is the truth. And can the truth be changed by merely | giving it another name? The name of fear is simply a mistake. Let me |
| W2:305.1 | to be the home of fear. For Love has come and healed the world by | giving it Christ's peace. |
| W2:311.1 | you have made against yourself and re-establish peace of mind by | giving you God's Judgment of His Son. |
| W2:315.1 | the way to God becomes my savior, pointing out the way to me and | giving me his certainty that what he learned is surely mine as well. |
| W2:323.1 | Love come streaming in to his awareness, healing him of pain and | giving him Your own eternal joy. Such is the “sacrifice” You ask of |
| W2:332.1 | the light shine through the dream of darkness, offering it hope and | giving it the means to realize the freedom that is its inheritance. |
| W2:344.1 | This is Your law, my Father, not my own. I have not understood what | giving means and thought to save what I desired for myself alone. And |
| W2:349.1 | are mine. Each one that I accept gives me a miracle to give. And | giving as I would receive, I learn Your healing miracles belong to me. |
| W2:WAI.3 | will return when we have done our part. We are concerned only with | giving welcome to the truth. |
| M:I.1 | seems as if the teacher and the learner are separated, the teacher | giving something to the learner rather than to himself. Further, the |
| M:2.5 | In the teaching-learning situation, each one learns that | giving and receiving are the same. The demarcations they have drawn |
| M:4.7 | be called a “period of relinquishment.” If this is interpreted as | giving up the desirable, it will engender enormous conflict. Few |
| M:6.3 | the gift. No one can give if he is concerned with the result of the | giving. That is a limitation on the giving itself, and neither the |
| M:6.3 | concerned with the result of the giving. That is a limitation on the | giving itself, and neither the giver nor the receiver would have the |
| M:6.3 | nor the receiver would have the gift. Trust is an essential part of | giving; in fact, it is the part that makes sharing possible, the part |
| M:6.3 | it to be sure it is used as the giver deems appropriate? Such is not | giving but imprisoning. |
| M:6.4 | the gift that makes it truly given. And it is trust that makes true | giving possible. Healing is the change of mind that the Holy Spirit |
| M:7.1 | to change his mind about it. He lacked the trust that makes for | giving truly, and so he has not received the benefit of his gift. |
| M:9.2 | easier as the teacher of God learns to give up his own judgment. The | giving up of judgment, the obvious prerequisite for hearing God's |
| M:10.2 | God to realize not that he should not judge, but that he cannot. In | giving up judgment, he merely gives up what he did not have. He gives |
| M:10.2 | not have. He gives up an illusion; or better, he has an illusion of | giving up. He has actually merely become more honest. Recognizing |
| M:13.4 | God's teachers can have no regret on | giving up the pleasures of the world. Is it a sacrifice to give up |
| M:13.4 | world. Is it a sacrifice to give up pain? Does an adult resent the | giving up of children's toys? Does one whose vision has already |
| M:13.6 | do not be mistaken about what sacrifice means. It always means the | giving up of what you want. And what, oh teacher of God, is it that |

| Tx:15.31 | littleness that binds the host of God to guilt and weakness with the | glad awareness of the glory that is in him. My birth in you is your |

| Tx:31.31 | Let us be | glad that you will see what you believe, and that it has been given |
| Tx:31.72 | which now you hold has brought you in its wake, and welcome the | glad contrast offered you. Hold out your hand that you may have the |
| Tx:31.94 | Let us be | glad that we can walk the world and find so many chances to perceive |
| W1:11.1 | the concept that your thoughts determine the world you see. Be | glad indeed to practice the idea in this initial form, for in this |
| W1:62.4 | Let us be | glad to begin and end this day by practicing today's idea and to use |
| W1:66.3 | the ego by listening to its attacks on truth. We will merely be | glad that we can find out what truth is. |
| W1:72.7 | save you. God made you a body. Very well. Let us accept this and be | glad. As a body, do not let yourself be deprived of what the body |
| W1:73.7 | are trying to do today. We undertake it with your blessing and your | glad accord. |
| W1:75.5 | the world. Begin the longer practice periods by telling yourself the | glad tidings of your release: |
| W1:76.2 | Today we will be | glad you cannot prove it. For if you could, you would forever seek |
| W1:92.8 | again. The light of strength is constant, sure as love, forever | glad to give itself away because it cannot give but to itself. No one |
| W1:97.6 | The Holy Spirit will be | glad to take five minutes of each hour from your hands and carry them |
| W1:98.10 | the world with hope and gladness. Do not lose one chance to be the | glad receiver of His gifts, that you may give them to the world today. |
| W1:98.12 | spend again with Him. Repeat today's idea while you wait for the | glad time to come to you again. Repeat it often, and do not forget |
| W1:107.14 | And yet you will be | glad to look again upon this world. For you will bring with you the |
| W1:108.3 | that brings your peace of mind to other minds, to share it and be | glad that they are one with you and with themselves. This is the |
| W1:109.7 | hour that you take your rest today, a tired mind is suddenly made | glad, a bird with broken wings begins to sing, a stream long dry |
| W1:118.2 | peace and joy are mine. Today I will accept God's peace and joy in | glad exchange for all the substitutes which I have made for happiness |
| W1:123.2 | all the gains which you have made; the gifts you have received. Be | glad today in loving thankfulness your Father has not left you to |
| W1:123.3 | Son He loves is changeless as Himself. Be grateful you are saved. Be | glad you have a function in salvation to fulfill. Be thankful that |
| W1:126.10 | in understanding what it really means. Be willing to be taught. Be | glad to hear the Voice of truth and healing speak to you, and you |
| W1:127.7 | Let us together, then, be | glad to give some time to God today and understand there is no better |
| W1:131.5 | Be | glad that search you must. Be glad as well to learn you search for |
| W1:131.5 | Be glad that search you must. Be | glad as well to learn you search for Heaven and must find the goal |
| W1:131.8 | itself is not of Him. He did not make two minds, with Heaven as the | glad effect of one and earth the other's sorry outcome that is |
| W1:137.9 | Healing, forgiveness, and the | glad exchange of all the world of sorrow for a world where sadness |
| W1:152.11 | from hell are joyously accepted as our own. Now do we join in | glad acknowledgment that lies are false and only truth is true. |
| W1:164.2 | answers for you, echoing your Self, using your voice to give His | glad consent, accepting your deliverance for you. |
| W1:169.13 | Be grateful to return, as you were | glad to go an instant and accept the gifts that grace provided you. |
| W1:184.15 | a shadow we have tried to cast across Your Own Reality. And we are | glad and thankful we were wrong. All our mistakes we give to You, |
| W1:191.7 | Be | glad today how very easily is hell undone. You need but tell yourself: |
| W1:196.9 | You are strong, and it is strength you want. And you are free and | glad of freedom. You have sought to be both weak and bound because |
| W1:198.5 | Is it not wiser to be | glad you hold the answer to your problems in your hand? Is it not |
| W1:198.15 | that yet would stand between this vision and our sight. And we are | glad that we have come this far and recognize that He Who brought us |
| W1:200.12 | There is no peace except the peace of God, and I am | glad and thankful it is so. |
| W1:218.1 | see the vision of my glory. Yet today I can behold this glory and be | glad. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God created me. |
| W2:I.9 | And we believed that our insane desires were the truth. Now we are | glad that this is all undone, and we no longer think illusions true. |
| W2:226.2 | Father, my home awaits my | glad return. Your arms are open, and I hear Your Voice. What need |
| W2:227.2 | And so today we find our | glad return to Heaven, which we never really left. The Son of God |
| W2:241.2 | Your Son, who never left, returns to Heaven and his home. How | glad are we to have our sanity restored to us, and to remember that |
| W2:242.1 | For there is One Who knows all that is best for me. And He is | glad to make no choices for me but the ones that lead to God. This |
| W2:253.2 | is but Your will in perfect union with my own, which can but offer | glad assent to Yours that It may be extended to itself. |
| W2:WILJ.4 | this. Salvation asks you give it welcome. And the world awaits your | glad acceptance, which will set it free. |
| W2:321.2 | Today we answer for the world, which will be freed along with us. How | glad are we to find our freedom through the certain way our Father |
| W2:328.2 | There is no will but Yours. And I am | glad that nothing I imagine contradicts what You would have me be. It |
| W2:340.2 | Be | glad today! Be glad! There is no room for anything but joy and thanks |
| W2:340.2 | Be glad today! Be | glad! There is no room for anything but joy and thanks today. Our |
| W2:WAI.5 | about the aim for which we came and which we seek to serve. We bring | glad tidings to the Son of God, who thought he suffered. Now is he |
| M:4.25 | in the world. It is given to the teachers of God to bring the | glad tidings of complete forgiveness to the world. Blessed indeed are |
| M:28.1 | the Atonement for oneself. It is the end of dreams of misery and the | glad awareness of the Holy Spirit's final dream. It is the |
| M:29.2 | responsible for decisions about which you understand so little? Be | glad you have a Teacher Who cannot make a mistake. His answers are |
gladden (4) | ||
| Tx:4.63 | Have you really considered how many opportunities you have to | gladden yourselves and how many of them you have refused? There is no |
| Tx:5.1 | I have told you before to think how many opportunities you have to | gladden yourselves and how many you have refused. This is exactly the |
| Tx:7.45 | conflicted mind could possibly perceive as meaningful. Fear does not | gladden. Healing does. Fear always makes exceptions. Healing never |
| Tx:29.31 | resting 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 |
gladdened (1) | ||
| W2:315.1 | which I can conceive. A brother smiles upon another, and my heart is | gladdened. Someone speaks a word of gratitude or mercy, and my mind |
gladly (68) | ||
| Tx:1.87 | The miracle-worker, therefore, accepts the time-control factor | gladly because he recognizes that every collapse of time brings all |
| Tx:4.19 | The Soul is beyond humility because it recognizes its radiance and | gladly sheds its light everywhere. The meek shall inherit the earth |
| Tx:5.80 | Appeal everything you believe | gladly to God's own Higher Court, because it speaks for Him and |
| Tx:7.14 | law by creating by it. And His Sons, who create like Him, follow it | gladly, knowing that the increase of the Kingdom depends on it, just |
| Tx:7.75 | honor to the Sons of the living God and count yourselves among them | gladly. |
| Tx:7.104 | No one obeys | gladly a guide he does not trust, but this does not mean that the |
| Tx:8.15 | and through theirs yours is extended. Awakening runs easily and | gladly through the Kingdom in answer to the call of God. This is the |
| Tx:8.41 | and if you want to share it you will. I give it willingly and | gladly, because I need you as much as you need me. |
| Tx:9.65 | Who could have done this but you? Recognize this | gladly, for in this recognition lies the realization that your |
| 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 remembering, |
| Tx:10.21 | offer Him a little place, He will lighten it so much that you will | gladly extend it. And by this extending, you will begin to remember |
| Tx:10.64 | Resurrection must compel your allegiance | gladly because it is the symbol of joy. Its whole compelling power |
| Tx:11.54 | of how to teach you what you are. Because He loves you, He will | gladly teach you what He loves, for He wills to share it. Remembering |
| Tx:12.17 | remedy is quick. Do not hide suffering from His sight, but bring it | gladly to Him. Lay before His eternal sanity all your hurt, and let |
| Tx:12.64 | not and following not the road that love points out. Love leads so | gladly! And as you follow Him, you will rejoice that you have found |
| Tx:13.72 | of guilt in place of all the happy teaching the Holy Spirit would | gladly offer him. |
| Tx:13.75 | you. Do not try to escape the gift of God which He so freely and so | gladly offers you. He offers you but what God gave Him for you. You |
| Tx:13.78 | that you would follow to salvation. He knows the way and leads you | gladly on it. With Him you will not fail to learn what God wills for |
| Tx:13.91 | you of the joy of living with your God and Father, and awaking | gladly to His love and holiness, which join together as the truth in |
| Tx:14.15 | must be shared, for therein lies everything that makes it holy. Come | gladly to the holy circle, and look out in peace on all who think |
| Tx:14.30 | enter the darkness and lighten it away. At your request He enters | gladly. He brings the light to darkness if you make the darkness open |
| Tx:14.61 | with God's glory, for in it lies His power, which He shares so | gladly with His Son. |
| Tx:14.62 | He will accept from you because you do not want it. And He will | gladly exchange each one for the bright lesson He has learned for |
| Tx:15.23 | satisfy you. It is essential that you accept the fact, and accept it | gladly, that there is no form of littleness that can ever content |
| Tx:15.32 | of nothing, and unable to accept anything for yourself. But you will | gladly give, having received. The host of God need not seek to find |
| Tx:15.38 | you will recognize in the holy instant in which you willingly and | gladly give over every plan but His. For there lies peace, perfectly |
| Tx:15.61 | 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 limited in any |
| Tx:15.69 | it is certain that, if you will look at them, you will offer them | gladly to Him. What He can make of them, you do not know, but you |
| Tx:15.80 | Hear Him | gladly and learn of Him that you have need of no special |
| Tx:16.25 | and their power and gratitude to you for their creation they offer | gladly to your teaching of yourself, who is their home. You who are |
| Tx:16.33 | They seek it desperately but not in the peace in which it would | gladly come quietly to them. And when they find the fear of death is |
| Tx:16.67 | is a place where truth and beauty wait for you. Go on to meet them | gladly, and learn how much awaits you for the simple willingness to |
| Tx:17.22 | All this you will do | gladly if you but let Him hold the spark before you to light your way |
| Tx:17.55 | is the goal, together with you. Think you not the goal itself will | gladly arrange the means for its accomplishment? It is just this same |
| Tx:17.69 | be gently turned to its use and purpose. The universe will serve it | gladly, as it serves the universe. But do not interfere. |
| Tx:20.15 | be. He will not leave you nor forsake the savior from his pain. And | gladly will you walk the way of innocence together, singing as you |
| Tx:21.5 | pain. And gentle lessons are acquired joyously and are remembered | gladly. What gives you happiness you want to learn and not forget. It |
| Tx:22.28 | to dwell in quiet here with Christ is share His vision. Quickly and | gladly is His vision given to anyone who is but willing to see his |
| Tx:22.37 | as what it is—a common state of mind, where both give errors | gladly to correction that both may happily be healed as one. |
| Tx:24.58 | Would you not | gladly realize these laws are not for you? Then see him not as |
| Tx:25.19 | pictures yours. His gentleness becomes your strength, and both will | gladly look within and see the holiness that must be there because of |
| Tx:26.83 | Your footprints lighten up the world, for where you walk forgiveness | gladly goes with you. No one on earth but offers thanks to one who |
| Tx:28.12 | its treasures to the Son of God, for whom they have been kept. How | gladly does He offer them unto the one for whom He has been given |
| Tx:29.38 | murder, grief and loss. This is the “sacrifice” salvation asks and | gladly offers peace instead of this. |
| W1:75.11 | fail to see today. And what you see will be so welcome that you will | gladly extend today forever. Say, then: |
| W1:97.11 | Offer each practice period today | gladly to Him. And He will speak to you, reminding you that you are |
| W1:98.4 | They will be with us—all who took the stand we take today will | gladly offer us all that they learned and every gain they made. Those |
| W1:101.9 | thoughts will introduce into your mind. Give these five minutes | gladly to remove the heavy load you laid upon yourself with the |
| W1:104.1 | be a place made ready to receive His gifts. They are not welcomed | gladly by a mind which has instead received the gifts it made where |
| W1:122.9 | that this will be the day salvation will be ours. Earnestly and | gladly will we seek for it today, aware we hold the key within our |
| W1:122.10 | Morning and evening do we | gladly give a quarter of an hour to the search in which the end of |
| W1:130.7 | Six times today in thanks and gratitude we | gladly give five minutes to the thought which ends all compromise and |
| W1:135.21 | and it will be increased until the world is lighted up with joy. And | gladly will our brothers lay aside their cumbersome defenses which |

| W1:155.14 | His Love. In your name and His own, which are the same, we practice | gladly with this thought today: |
| W1:159.9 | have been delivered and returned to them. And they return them | gladly unto Him. |
| W1:168.2 | to all 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 |
| W1:187.5 | Give | gladly. You can only gain thereby. The thought remains and grows in |
| W1:190.8 | and working havoc in your holy mind. Pain is the ransom you have | gladly paid not to be free. In pain is God denied the Son He loves. |
| W2:296.2 | one and possible of easy reach and quick accomplishment. How | gladly does the Holy Spirit come to rescue us from hell when we allow |
| W2:317.1 | I am the slave of time and human destiny. But when I willingly and | gladly go the way my Father's plan appointed me to go, then will I |
| W2:323.1 | own eternal joy. Such is the “sacrifice” You ask of me, and one I | gladly make, the only “cost” of restoration of Your memory to me for |
| W2:360.1 | Son is like to You in perfect sinlessness, and with this thought we | gladly say “Amen.” |
| W2:E.1 | Whatever 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 |
| M:16.11 | Is not this an exchange that you would want? The world would | gladly make it if it knew it could be made. It is God's teachers who |
| M:18.2 | He free to teach all minds the truth of what they are, so they will | gladly be returned to Him. And now is guilt forgiven, overlooked |
| M:28.2 | misery of any kind perceived as hell. Love is no longer feared but | gladly welcomed. Idols have disappeared, and the remembrance of God |

| W1:98.10 | so strong and steady they will light the world with hope and | gladness. Do not lose one chance to be the glad receiver of His |

| W1:7.12 | one thing in particular, but remember to omit nothing specifically. | Glance briefly at each subject, and then move on to the next. |
| W1:12.2 | quite slowly. Try to pace yourself so that the slow shifting of your | glance from one thing to another involves a fairly constant time |

| Tx:4.50 | ask. This is not a condition as the ego sets conditions. It is the | glorious condition of what you are. |
| Tx:4.58 | as you look at yourselves and at each other and see in both the | glorious creations of a glorious Father. |
| Tx:4.58 | and at each other and see in both the glorious creations of a | glorious Father. |
| Tx:4.98 | which becomes total only by your recognizing all reality in the | glorious context of its real relationship to you. This is your |
| Tx:9.33 | belongs to Him, but it is equally yours. You cannot, then, be less | glorious than He is. |
| Tx:10.27 | Yet the Son of God cannot hide his glory, for God wills him to be | glorious and gave him the light that shines in him. You will never |
| Tx:12.20 | but still more did he fear his real Father, having attacked his own | glorious equality with Him. |

| Tx:18.72 | apart from Him. The body is a tiny fence around a little part of a | glorious and complete idea. It draws a circle, infinitely small, |
| Tx:18.77 | kingdom. Arched high above it and surrounding it with love is the | glorious whole, which offers all its happiness and deep content to |
| Tx:29.35 | If you but knew the | glorious goal that lies beyond forgiveness, you would not keep hold |
| W1:163.9 | our eyes today. We are Your messengers, and we would look upon the | glorious reflection of Your love which shines in everything. We live |

| M:4.24 | the world and let it be restored to them in newness and in joy so | glorious they could never have conceived of such a change. Nothing is |
| M:25.1 | Yet nothing he can do can compare even in the slightest with the | glorious surprise of remembering who he is. Let all his learning and |
glory (83) | ||
| Tx:5.21 | radiance that you must let banish the idea of darkness. His is the | glory before which dissociation falls away and the Kingdom of Heaven |
| Tx:7.50 | by your creations, which can only be created as you were. The whole | glory and perfect joy that is the Kingdom lies in you to give. Do you |
| Tx:7.81 | they belong to His beloved Sons who belong to Him. All power and | glory are yours, because the Kingdom is His. |
| Tx:7.112 | yours. He cannot have lost what you recognize, and you must have the | glory you see in him. He is a co-creator with God with you. Deny his |
| Tx:8.13 | because He created you for this. When we said, “All power and | glory are yours because the Kingdom is His,” this is what we meant. |
| Tx:8.14 | The Will of God is without limit, and all power and | glory lie within it. It is boundless in strength and in love and in |
| Tx:8.14 | Himself, you are like Him. You are part of Him Who is all power and | glory and are therefore as unlimited as He is. |
| Tx:8.15 | To what else except all power and | glory can the Holy Spirit appeal to restore God's Kingdom? His |
| Tx:8.16 | Glory be to God in the highest and to you, because He has so willed | |
| Tx:8.17 | will release your will to God's, uniting it with His power and | glory and establishing them as yours. You share them as God shares |
| Tx:8.20 | else to learn. Everyone is looking for himself and for the power and | glory he thinks he has lost. Whenever you are with anyone, you have |
| Tx:8.20 | anyone, you have another opportunity to find them. Your power and | glory are in him, because they are yours. The ego tries to find them |
| Tx:8.23 | because you are part of God, Who is everything. His power and | glory are everywhere, and you cannot be excluded from them. The ego |
| Tx:8.23 | why He has given you the means for undoing it. Through His power and | glory, all your wrong decisions are undone, completely releasing you |
| Tx:8.24 | Power and | glory belong to God alone. So do you. God gives whatever belongs to |
| Tx:8.24 | Him. You cannot 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 |
| Tx:8.24 | Glory is God's gift to you, because that is what He is. See this | glory everywhere to learn what you are. |
| Tx:8.38 | in you, but in that lies all truth. As we unite, we unite with Him. | Glory be to the union of God and His holy Sons! All glory lies in |
| Tx:8.38 | unite with Him. Glory be to the union of God and His holy Sons! All | glory lies in them because they are united. The miracles we do bear |
| Tx:8.42 | world has 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 |
| Tx:8.57 | When you look upon a brother as a physical entity, his power and | glory are lost to you, and so are yours. You have attacked him, but |
| Tx:8.58 | are not of yourselves. He of Whom you are has willed your power and | glory for you, with which you can perfectly accomplish His holy will |
| Tx:9.33 | to you as well. Every Soul God created is part of you and shares His | glory with you. His Glory belongs to Him, but it is equally yours. |
| Tx:9.33 | Soul God created is part of you and shares His glory with you. His | Glory belongs to Him, but it is equally yours. You cannot, then, be |
| Tx:9.69 | than merely lack of fear. In this decision lie joy and peace and the | glory of creation. Offer the Holy Spirit only your will to remember, |
| Tx:10.9 | and your closed eyes have not lost the ability to see. Look upon the | glory of His creation, and you will learn what God has kept for you. |
| Tx:10.27 | His Son 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 |
| Tx:10.31 | salvation is. You are not saved from anything, but you are saved for | glory. Glory is your inheritance, given your Soul by its Creator that |
| Tx:10.31 | is. You are not saved from anything, but you are saved for glory. | Glory is your inheritance, given your Soul by its Creator that you |
| Tx:10.35 | Father. Yet the Creator cannot be praised without His Son, for their | glory is shared, and they are glorified together. |
| Tx:10.37 | is the Son of God who lives in his Creator and shines with His | glory. Christ is the extension of the love and the loveliness of God, |
| Tx:10.38 | Blessed is the Son of God, whose radiance is of his Father and whose | glory he wills to share as his Father shares it with him. There is no |
| Tx:14.10 | offered for the single purpose of release from guilt to the eternal | glory of God and His creation. And every teaching that points to this |
| Tx:14.32 | In the darkness you have obscured the | glory God gave you and the power He bestowed upon His guiltless Son. |
| Tx:14.32 | Banish not power from your mind, but let all that would hide your | glory be brought to the judgment of the Holy Spirit and there undone. |
| Tx:14.32 | judgment of the Holy Spirit and there undone. Whom He would save for | glory is saved for it. He has promised the Father that through Him |
| Tx:14.32 | the Father that through Him you would be released from littleness to | glory. To what He promised God He is wholly faithful, for He shared |
| Tx:14.35 | 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 opposite, |
| Tx:14.61 | 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 His |
| Tx:15.22 | you peace, you are belittling yourself and blinding yourself to | glory. Littleness and glory are the choices open to your striving and |
| Tx:15.22 | belittling yourself and blinding yourself to glory. Littleness and | glory are the choices open to your striving and your vigilance. You |
| Tx:15.28 | are the decisions you have made about yourself. The power and the | glory that lie in you from God are for all who, like you, perceive |
| Tx:15.30 | behind and wander not in vain? It is not sacrifice to wake to | glory. But it is a sacrifice to accept anything less than glory. |
| Tx:15.30 | to wake to glory. But it is a sacrifice to accept anything less than | glory. Learn that you must be worthy of the Prince of Peace, born in |
| Tx:15.31 | the host of God to guilt and weakness with the glad awareness of the | glory that is in him. My birth in you is your awakening to grandeur. |
| Tx:16.5 | this, and yield not to the ego's triumphant use of empathy for its | glory. |
| Tx:16.74 | could it be? In seeking the special relationship, you look not for | glory in yourself. You have denied that it is there, and the |
| Tx:17.42 | our minds. We will gain everything by giving Him the power and the | glory and keeping no illusions of where they are. They are in us |
| Tx:19.35 | and you can see. Look not for what has been removed but for the | glory that has been restored for you to see. |
| Tx:19.91 | and the bright rays of His Father's love which light His face with | glory appear as streams of blood, fades in the blazing light beyond |
| Tx:23.3 | Walk you in | glory with your head held high, and fear no evil. The innocent are |
| Tx:23.3 | And every error disappeared because they saw it not. Who looks for | glory finds it where it is. Where could it be but in the innocent? |
| Tx:23.5 | Let us not let littleness lead God's Son into temptation. His | glory is beyond it, measureless and timeless as eternity. Do not let |
| Tx:23.5 | is yours protected and kept in your awareness. For who can know his | glory and perceive the little and the weak about him? Who can walk |
| Tx:23.5 | Who can walk trembling in a fearful world and realize that Heaven's | glory shines on him? |
| Tx:24.57 | 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 that |
| Tx:26.26 | Forgiveness turns the world of sin into a world of | glory, wonderful to see. Each flower shines in light, and every bird |
| Tx:26.64 | to save the Son of God from crucifixion and from hell and death, all | glory be forever. For you have power to save the Son of God because |
| Tx:26.77 | eyes on him who carries Christ within him, that you may behold His | glory and rejoice that Heaven is not separate from you. |
| Tx:29.22 | choose that it remain. The coming of the light means it is gone. In | glory will you see your brother then and understand what really fills |
| Tx:29.34 | Father asks 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 |
| Tx:30.79 | I thank you, Father, for your perfect Son, and in his | glory will I see my own. |
| Tx:31.83 | tiny reach. Would you be this if Christ appeared to you in all His | glory, asking you but this: |
| W1:94.2 | as well. You are as God created you. Darkness cannot obscure the | glory of the Son of God. You stand in light, strong in the |
| W1:126.8 | which lies in the idea we practice for today, this is a day of | glory for the world. |
| W1:151.9 | created your reality. What can the body mean to Him Who knows the | glory of the Father and the Son? What whispers of the ego can He |
| W1:170.14 | we give thanks for them who render us complete. In them we see Your | glory, and in them we find our peace. Holy are we because Your |
| W1:R5.12 | yet one as old as time, and older still. Hallowed your name. Your | glory undefiled forever. And your wholeness now complete, as God |
| W1:191.10 | 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 to give the world |
| W1:191.12 | will sleep no more and dream of death. Then join with me today. Your | glory is the light that saves the world. Do not withhold salvation |
| W1:194.5 | God's Son is freed to bless the world. Now is he free, and all his | glory shines upon a world made free with him to share his holiness. |
| W1:211.1 | 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 am not a |

| Tx:15.19 | in your perception and seem to provide reasons for not letting it | go. Yet they are far stronger and much more compelling witnesses for |
| Tx:15.21 | the holy instant. You will receive very specific instructions as you | go along. To learn to separate out this single second and begin to |
| Tx:15.36 | must therefore rest upon your willingness to let all littleness | go. The instant in which magnitude will dawn upon you is but as far |
| Tx:15.40 | be only because you prefer not to recognize it and not to let it | go. The simple reason, simply stated, is this: The holy instant is a |
| Tx:15.42 | and am I wholly willing to let everything that interferes with it | go forever?” If the answer is no, then the Holy Spirit's readiness to |
| Tx:15.49 | use of it. All the love from His. Do not, then, be afraid to let | go your imagined needs, which would destroy the relationship. Your |

| Tx:15.67 | investment in it, to learn to let it go. No one would choose to let | go what he believes has value. Yet the attraction of guilt has value |
| Tx:15.95 | manifestations of the same idea, and one you do not want, they | go together. The idea is simply this—you believe that it is |
| Tx:16.30 | is lost, is undertaken solely to offset the hate but not to let it | go. Your salvation will rise clearly before your open eyes as you |
| Tx:16.31 | symbol of love is without meaning if love is everything. You will | go through this last undoing quite unharmed and will at last emerge |

| Tx:16.64 | for it means nothing more than that you have been willing to let | go your hold on the distorted frame of reference which seemed to hold |
| Tx:16.66 | and you could not enter into a relationship where it could not | go with you, for you would not be apart from it. |

| Tx:16.71 | deprivation on it, for the past is gone. You cannot really not let | go what has already gone. It must be, therefore, that you are |
| Tx:16.73 | of retribution for the past. Would you act out the dream or let it | go? |

| Tx:17.69 | everywhere. As holiness and faith go hand in hand, so must its faith | go everywhere with it. The goal's reality will call forth and |

| Tx:22.34 | not for seeing. See how the body's eyes rest on externals and cannot | go beyond. Watch how they stop at nothingness, unable to go beyond |

| Tx:26.29 | and praise. And as they come to you to be complete, so will you | go with them. For no one hears the song of Heaven and remains without |
| Tx:26.30 | are two teachers only, who point in different ways. And you will | go along the way your chosen teacher leads. There are but two |
| Tx:26.30 | road be made except the way to Heaven. You but choose whether to | go toward Heaven or away to nowhere. There is nothing else to choose. |
| Tx:26.38 | be up to you to see the past and put it in the present? You can not | go back. And everything that points the way in the direction of the |
| Tx:26.38 | lose your way because there is no way but His and nowhere can you | go except to Him. |
| Tx:26.43 | Forgive the past and let it | go, for it is gone. You stand no longer on the ground that lies |
| Tx:26.51 | as answer to them all. God's Will is One. And any wish that seems to | go against His Will has no foundation in the truth. |
| Tx:27.3 | he may see his sins are writ in Heaven in your blood and death and | go before him, closing off the gate and damning him to hell. Yet this |
| Tx:27.39 | this is not a question, for it tells you what you want and where to | go for it. It leaves no room to question its beliefs, except that |
| Tx:27.44 | needed that it can begin. Accept the miracle of healing, and it will | go forth because of what it is. It is its nature to extend itself the |
| Tx:27.53 | will be one of its effects, as will your brother's. Everywhere you | go will you behold its multiplied effects. Yet all the witnesses that |
| Tx:27.64 | world were hurting you. And so it seems as if there is no need to | go beyond the obvious in terms of cause. |
| Tx:27.84 | your innocence by pushing guilt outside yourself but never letting | go! It is not easy to perceive the jest when all around you do your |
| Tx:28.5 | to use it as a means to keep the past, but rather as a way to let it | go. Memory holds the message it receives and does what it is given it |
| Tx:28.24 | the separation's final step with which salvation, which proceeds to | go the other way, begins. This final step is an effect of what has |
| Tx:28.38 | the dreamer from the dream and join [with] one but let the other | go. The dream is but illusion in the mind. And with the mind you |
| Tx:28.46 | in the gap what is not there. Your willingness to let illusions | go is all the Healer of God's Son requires. He will place the miracle |
| Tx:29.4 | and signify a meeting-place to join. But always is it possible to | go your separate ways. Conditional upon the “right” to separate will |
| Tx:29.5 | make communion with each other's mind. And now it tells you where to | go and how to go there, what is feasible for you to undertake, and |
| Tx:29.5 | with each other's mind. And now it tells you where to go and how to | go there, what is feasible for you to undertake, and what you cannot |
| Tx:29.7 | gone. Thus is love seen as treacherous because it seems to come and | go uncertainly and offer no stability to you. You do not see how |
| Tx:29.7 | is your allegiance and how frequently you have demanded that love | go away and leave you quietly alone in “peace.” |
| Tx:29.39 | and night and day will be no more. All things that come and | go, the tides, the seasons, and the lives of men; all things that |
| Tx:30.15 | If you are so unwilling to receive you cannot even let your question | go, you can begin to change your mind with this: |
| Tx:30.20 | like the way you feel. This tiny opening will be enough to let you | go ahead with just a few more steps you need to let yourself be |
| Tx:30.44 | Thoughts seem to come and | go. Yet all this means is that you are sometimes aware of them and |
| Tx:30.59 | of forgiveness still remains. Yet everyone is certain he will | go beyond forgiveness, and he but remains until it is made perfect in |
| Tx:30.59 | till every hand is joined and every heart made ready to arise and | go with him. For thus is he made ready for the step in which is all |
| Tx:30.61 | world is a state in which the mind has learned how easily do idols | go when they are still perceived, but wanted not. How willingly the |
| Tx:30.61 | still perceived, but wanted not. How willingly the mind can let them | go when it has understood that idols are nothing and nowhere and are |
| Tx:30.64 | need to walk with perfect confidence away from fear forever and to | go straight on and quickly reach the gate of Heaven itself. For He |
| Tx:30.64 | your understanding, for you have enabled Him to rise from chains and | go with you together to His Father's house. |
| Tx:30.75 | to keep some idols and are not prepared as yet to let all idols | go. And thus you think that some appearances are real and not |
| Tx:31.20 | anger but in love, for in his progress do you count your own. And we | go separately along the way unless you keep him safely by your side. |
| Tx:31.23 | only when he would step back and falling back when he would | go ahead? For so do you forget the journey's goal, which is but to |
| Tx:31.23 | to walk with him, so neither leads nor follows. Thus it is a way you | go together, not alone. And in this choice is learning's outcome |
| Tx:31.25 | be given while you walk alone, and so you cannot see which way you | go. And thus there is confusion and a sense of endless doubting as |
| Tx:31.33 | How then can you escape from them by leaving them behind? What must | go with you, you will take with you whatever road you choose to walk |
| Tx:31.34 | differently they seem to start, however differently they seem to | go. Their end is certain, for there is no choice among them. All of |
| Tx:31.35 | have learned their greatest lesson. All must reach this point and | go beyond it. It is true indeed there is no choice at all within the |
| Tx:31.36 | fast your learning now, and understand you but waste time unless you | go beyond what you have learned to what is yet to learn. For from |
| Tx:31.42 | to think that there could be a road with such an aim! Where could it | go? And how could you be made to travel on it, walking there without |
| Tx:31.43 | is its purpose—that you come without a self and make one as you | go along. And by the time you reach “maturity,” you have perfected it |
| Tx:31.50 | that you will choose to follow this world's laws and never seek to | go beyond its roads nor realize the way you see yourself. Now must |
| Tx:31.53 | of the world depends upon this concept of the self. And both would | go if either one were ever raised to doubt. The Holy Spirit does not |

| W1:14.3 | lead you directly into fear. You will not be left there. You will | go far beyond it. Our direction is toward perfect safety and perfect |
| W1:15.3 | As we | go along, you may have many “light episodes.” They may take many |
| W1:23.5 | change requires, first, that the cause be identified and then let | go, so that it can be replaced. The first two steps in this process |
| W1:23.8 | thought in mind as you say this, and then dismiss that thought and | go on to the next. |
| W1:23.9 | being attacked are not different, you will be ready to let the cause | go. |
| W1:24.11 | and | go on to the next. |
| W1:26.9 | Then | go over every possible outcome which has occurred to you in that |
| W1:31.3 | establish any thought of hierarchy among them. Watch them come and | go as dispassionately as possible. Do not dwell on any one in |
| W1:34.3 | today slowly as you watch them arise in your mind, and let each one | go, to be replaced by the next. |
| W1:41.3 | your perfect holiness because its Source goes with you wherever you | go. You can never suffer because the Source of all joy goes with you |
| W1:41.3 | suffer because the Source of all joy goes with you wherever you | go. You can never be alone because the Source of all life goes with |
| W1:41.3 | be alone because the Source of all life goes with you wherever you | go. Nothing can destroy your peace of mind because God goes with you |
| W1:41.3 | destroy your peace of mind because God goes with you wherever you | go. |
| W1:41.4 | our first real attempt to get past this dark and heavy cloud and to | go through it to the light beyond. |
| W1:41.7 | is attempted. And sooner or later, it is always successful. We will | go into more detail in connection with this kind of practice as we go |
| W1:41.7 | go into more detail in connection with this kind of practice as we | go along. But it will never fail completely, and instant success is |
| W1:41.9 | at fear thoughts, remembering that God goes with you wherever you | go. |
| W1:42.3 | after you wake and another as close as possible to the time you | go to sleep. It is better, however, to wait until you can sit quietly |
| W1:44.1 | Creation and darkness cannot coexist, but light and life must | go together, being but different aspects of creation. |
| W1:44.7 | idea several times more. Then try to sink into your mind, letting | go every kind of interference and intrusion by quietly sinking past |
| W1:45.8 | Then try to | go past all the unreal thoughts that cover the truth in your mind, |
| W1:45.11 | will probably be unable as yet to realize how high you are trying to | go. Yet even with the little understanding you have already gained, |
| W1:47.8 | reached it if you feel a sense of deep peace, however briefly. Let | go all the trivial things that churn and bubble on the surface of |
| W1:49.4 | Listen in deep silence. Be very still, and open your mind. | Go past all the raucous shrieks and sick imaginings that cover your |
| W1:51.2 | What I think I see now is taking the place of vision. I must let it | go by realizing that it has no meaning so that vision may take its |
| W1:51.4 | in trying to understand it. But there is every reason to let it | go and make room for what can be seen and understood and loved. I can |
| W1:51.5 | to recognize that my thoughts do not mean anything and to let them | go. I choose to have them be replaced by what they were intended to |
| W1:51.6 | which has hurt me and which I no longer want. I am willing to let it | go. |
| W1:56.3 | remember who I am, it is essential that I let this image of myself | go. As it is replaced by truth, vision will surely be given me. And |
| 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 |
| W1:59.2 | about myself. I am perfect because God goes with me wherever I | go. |
| W1:60.5 | I am walking 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 |
| W1:66.3 | Today we will try to | go past this wholly meaningless battle and arrive at the truth about |
| W1:66.4 | if it appears to be different. Today's exercises are an attempt to | go beyond these differences in appearance, and recognize a common |
| W1:68.5 | Perhaps you do not think you can let all your grievances | go. That, however, is simply a question of motivation. Today we will |
| W1:68.10 | Love holds no grievances. When I let all my grievances | go, I will know I am perfectly safe. |
| W1:69.4 | Very quietly now, with your eyes closed, try to let | go of all the content which generally occupies your consciousness. |
| W1:69.5 | They seem to be all there is to see. Therefore you do not attempt to | go through them and past them, which is the only way in which you |
| W1:69.6 | much you want to reach the light in you today—now. Determine to | go past the clouds. Reach out and touch them in your mind; brush them |
| W1:69.6 | feel them resting on your cheeks and forehead and eyelids as you | go through them. Go on; clouds cannot stop you. |
| W1:69.6 | on your cheeks and forehead and eyelids as you go through them. | Go on; clouds cannot stop you. |
| W1:69.8 | it is given you, and you will yet receive it. Try, as you attempt to | go through the clouds to the light, to hold this confidence in your |
| W1:70.12 | the clouds and in the light beyond. Remember that you will have to | go through the clouds before you can reach the light. But remember |
| W1:71.11 | What would You have me do? Where would You have me | go? What would You have me say, and to whom? |
| W1:72.15 | you feel your confidence wane and your hope of success flicker and | go out, repeat your question and your request, remembering that you |
| W1:73.6 | this for yourself. There is a point beyond which illusions cannot | go. |
| W1:73.17 | hold a grievance of any kind. This will help you let your grievances | go instead of cherishing them and hiding them in the darkness. |
| W1:75.1 | save. You are at peace, and you bring peace with you wherever you | go. Darkness and turmoil and death have disappeared. The light has |
| W1:78.2 | Today we | go beyond the grievances to look upon the miracle instead. We will |
| W1:79.8 | Perhaps we will not succeed in letting all our preconceived notions | go, but that is not necessary. All that is necessary is to entertain |
| W1:85.2 | keep me in darkness and hide the light. Grievances and light cannot | go together, but light and vision must be joined for me to see. To |
| W1:91.1 | It is important to remember that miracles and vision necessarily | go together. This needs repeating and frequent repeating. It is a |
| W1:91.12 | become accustomed to keeping faith with the more worthy in you as we | go along. |
| W1:92.2 | universe imprisoned in your hand, securely bound until you let it | go. Yet this is no more foolish than to believe the body's eyes can |
| W1:92.8 | is not the light you see. It does not change and flicker and | go out. It does not shift from night to day and back to darkness till |
| W1:94.6 | to reach this goal except to lay all idols and self-images aside, | go past the long list of attributes, both “good” and “bad,” you have |
| W1:95.9 | mistakes. He can be held back only by your unwillingness to let them | go. Let us therefore be determined, particularly for the next week or |
| W1:95.11 | you would defend illusions against the truth. Let all these errors | go by recognizing them for what they are. They are attempts to keep |
| W1:96.14 | These are your own real thoughts you have denied, and let your mind | go wandering in a world of dreams, to find illusions in their place. |
| W1:97.1 | can enter, for your mind has been absolved from madness, letting | go illusions of a split identity. |
| W1:98.1 | a stand on but one side today. We side with truth and let illusions | go. We will not vacillate between the two but take a firm position |
| W1:98.8 | in you will bring the light to all the words you say, and you will | go beyond their sound to what they really mean. Today you practice |
| W1:100.1 | separate thoughts and separate bodies which lead separate lives and | go their separate ways. One function shared by separate minds unites |
| W1:100.2 | God's Will for you is perfect happiness. Why should you choose to | go against His Will? The part that He has saved for you to take in |
| W1:100.4 | Heaven, so your joy on earth calls to all minds to let their sorrows | go and take their place beside you in God's plan. God's messengers |
| W1:101.10 | road, and now today's idea brings wings to speed you on and hope to | go still faster to the waiting goal of peace. There is no sin. |
| W1:106.3 | persuasion. Hear them not. Be still today, and listen to the truth. | Go past all things which do not speak of Him Who holds your happiness |
| W1:107.1 | returning whence they came. From dust to dust they come and | go, for only truth remains. |
| W1:107.5 | else. It does not shift and alter in its form, nor come and | go and go and come again. It stays exactly as it always was, to be |
| W1:107.5 | else. It does not shift and alter in its form, nor come and go and | go and come again. It stays exactly as it always was, to be depended |
| W1:107.7 | Truth does not come and | go nor shift nor change, in this appearance now and then in that, |
| W1:107.10 | with you upon this undertaking that He be in your awareness as you | go with Him. You are not made of flesh and blood and bone but were |
| W1:107.10 | Father knows that you are both the same. It is your Self you ask to | go with you, and how could He be absent where you are? |
| W1:109.8 | there is comes closer to all worn and tired minds, too weary now to | go their way alone. And they will hear the bird begin to sing and see |
| W1:109.8 | with lightened steps along the road that suddenly seems easy as they | go. |
| W1:110.10 | were you. Today we make a great advance to truth by letting idols | go and opening our hands and hearts and minds to God today. |
| W1:R3.8 | one in the morning and the other in the hour just before you | go to sleep. |
| W1:R3.9 | You have been inclined to practice only at appointed times and then | go on your way to other things without applying what you learned to |
| W1:121.3 | and all it sees, afraid and angry, weak and blustering, afraid to | go ahead, afraid to stay, afraid to waken or to go to sleep, afraid |
| W1:121.3 | afraid to go ahead, afraid to stay, afraid to waken or to | go to sleep, afraid of every sound, yet more afraid of stillness; |
| W1:123.4 | we smile on everyone we see and walk with lightened footsteps as we | go to do what is appointed us to do. We do not go alone. And we give |
| W1:123.4 | footsteps as 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 |
| W1:124.1 | blesses and which heals. At one with God and with the universe, we | go our way rejoicing, with the thought that God Himself goes |
| W1:128.5 | Today we practice letting | go all thought of values we have given to the world. We leave it free |
| W1:128.5 | we lift the chains which bar the door to freedom from the world and | go beyond all little values and diminished goals. |
| W1:129.2 | of this world. Perhaps you will concede there is no loss in letting | go all thought of value here. The world you see is merciless indeed, |
| W1:129.4 | they will be exchanged at last for what we cannot speak of, for you | go from there to where words fail entirely, into a silence where the |
| W1:130.2 | that which you fear to see you cannot see. Love and perception thus | go hand in hand, but fear obscures in darkness what is there. |
| W1:130.5 | They are the range of choice beyond which your decision cannot | go. The real and the unreal are all there is to choose between, and |
| W1:130.7 | five minutes to the thought which ends all compromise and doubt and | go beyond them all as one. We will not make a thousand meaningless |
| W1:131.6 | will fall away, yet not because it has been taken from you. It will | go because you do not want it. You will reach the goal you really |
| W1:131.14 | with such a world and which you think are true. Then let them | go, and sink below them to the holy place where they can enter not. |
| W1:131.16 | hand and see how easily the door swings open with your one intent to | go beyond it. Angels light the way, so that all darkness vanishes and |
| W1:132.7 | to teach. Not everyone is ready to accept it, and each one must | go as far as he can let himself be led along the road to truth. He |
| W1:132.7 | can let himself be led along the road to truth. He will return and | go still farther, or perhaps step back a while and then return again. |
| W1:132.9 | that gave it these appearances. The sick are healed as you let | go all thoughts of sickness, and the dead arise when you let thoughts |
| W1:135.13 | it has accepted this as true, then is it healed and lets the body | go. |
| W1:136.8 | to totter and prepare to fall. Now are you sick that truth may | go away and threaten your establishments no more. |
| W1:137.12 | truth will occupy our minds, that thoughts of healing will this day | go forth from what is healed to what must yet be healed, aware that |
| W1:139.9 | to change reality, but merely to accept the truth about yourself and | go your way rejoicing in the endless Love of God. It is but this that |
| W1:140.9 | We will not be misled today by what appears to us as sick. We | go beyond appearances today and reach the source of healing from |
| W1:140.11 | and end the day by listening again five minutes more before we | go to sleep. Our only preparation is to let our interfering thoughts |
| W1:151.15 | thus when you awake, and gladly give another 15 more before you | go to sleep. Your ministry begins as all your thoughts are purified. |
| W1:153.13 | more to play our final happy game upon this earth. And then we | go to take our rightful place where truth abides and games are |
| W1:155.8 | and nothing more. It asks that you accept the truth, and let it | go before you, lighting up the path of ransom from illusion. It is |
| W1:155.10 | back in faith, and let truth lead the way. You know not where you | go, but One Who knows goes with you. Let Him lead you with the rest. |
| W1:157.2 | reaches it can possibly attain. It leaves us there an instant and we | go beyond it, sure of our direction and our only goal. |
| W1:158.3 | him, although he has not yet embarked on it. For time but seems to | go in one direction. We but undertake a journey that is over. Yet it |
| W1:158.4 | trick—a sleight of hand, a vast illusion in which figures come and | go as if by magic. Yet there is a plan behind appearances which does |
| W1:159.9 | world into a garden like the one they came from and to which they | go again with added fragrance. Now are they twice blessed. The |
| W1:164.8 | now our own. Open the curtain in your practicing by merely letting | go all things you think you want. Your trifling treasures put away |
| W1:165.3 | but recognized where they abide? Would he not instantly prepare to | go where they are found, abandoning all else as worthless in |
| W1:166.5 | Yet in his lonely, senseless wanderings, God's gifts | go with him, all unknown to him. He cannot lose them. But he will not |
| W1:166.7 | witnesses with proof to show this is not you. You heed them not. You | go on your appointed way, with eyes cast down lest you might catch a |
| W1:166.9 | been outwitted by your plan to keep His Son in deep oblivion and | go the way you chose without your Self. |
| W1:166.15 | who have received them. He has shared His joy with you. And now you | go to share it with the world. |
| W1:167.5 | They can extend all that their source contains. In that they can | go far beyond themselves. But they cannot give birth to what was |
| W1:167.9 | or a false condition not within its Source, it merely seems to | go to sleep a while. It dreams of time—an interval in which what |
| W1:169.3 | Grace is not learned. The final step must | go beyond all learning. Grace is not the goal this course aspires to |
| W1:169.9 | convey to those who count the hours still and rise and work and | go to sleep by them? |
| W1:169.13 | Be grateful to return, as you were glad to | go an instant and accept the gifts that grace provided you. You carry |
| W1:R5.1 | of understanding. We would take this step completely, that we may | go on again more certain, more sincere, with faith upheld more |
| W1:R5.10 | I am incomplete without your part in me. And as I am made whole, we | go together to our ancient home, prepared for us before time was and |
| W1:R5.11 | world. The Self from Which I call to you is but your own. To Him we | go together. Take your brother's hand, for this is not a way we walk |
| W1:R5.15 | here conviction lies. We use the words, and try and try again to | go beyond them to their meaning, which is far beyond their sound. The |
| W1:I2.3 | be there, but you cannot accept its presence. So we now attempt to | go past all defenses for a little while each day. No more than this |
| W1:182.4 | with an innocence that will endure forever. Where this Child shall | go is holy ground. It is His holiness that lights up Heaven and that |
| W1:182.5 | as His own Son. It is this Child Who knows His Father. He desires to | go home so deeply, so unceasingly, His voice cries unto you to let |
| W1:182.6 | you still abides His sure protection. You will fail Him not. He will | go home, and you along with Him. |
| W1:182.7 | until you hear His gentle Voice within you, calling you to let Him | go in peace along with you to where He is at home and you with Him. |
| W1:182.10 | Who comes defenseless and Who is protected by defenselessness. | Go home with Him from time to time today. You are as much an alien |
| W1:182.11 | and brother. He has even come to you to ask your help in letting Him | go home completed and completely. He has come as does a little child |
| W1:182.12 | and the journey has an end in sight at last. Be still a moment and | go home with Him, and be at peace a while. |
| W1:184.7 | of the world. It is a phase of learning everyone who comes must | go through. But the sooner he perceives on what it rests, how |
| W1:184.9 | It would indeed be strange if you were asked to | go beyond all symbols of the world, forgetting them forever; yet were |
| W1:184.10 | the world becomes a transitory phase—a prison house from which you | go into the sunlight and forget the darkness. Here you understand the |
| W1:185.5 | He has looked on them and found them wanting. Now he seeks to | go beyond them, recognizing that another dream would offer nothing |
| W1:186.5 | be sure that it is so. The arrogant must cling to words, afraid to | go beyond them to experience which might affront their stance. Yet |
| W1:186.6 | you that you have the strength, the wisdom, and the holiness to | go beyond all images. You are not weak, as is the image of yourself. |
| W1:186.7 | the threat it does not know, sensing its basis crumble. Let it | go. Salvation of the world depends on you and not upon this little |
| W1:186.10 | These unsubstantial images will | go and leave your mind unclouded and serene when you accept the |
| W1:189.9 | And so today we do not choose the way in which we | go to Him. But we do choose to let Him come. And with this choice we |
| W1:192.2 | would pardon Heaven? Yet on earth you need the means to let illusion | go. Creation merely waits for your return to be acknowledged, not to |
| W1:193.15 | you can and give a little more, for now we would arise in haste and | go unto our Father's house. We have been gone too long, and we would |
| W1:193.17 | and when that one goes, let everything that happens in its course | go with it. Thus will you remain unbound, in peace eternal in the |
| W1:194.4 | sequence really found 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 |
| W1:195.5 | or who walk the way of hatred and the path of death. All these | go with you. Let us not compare ourselves with them, for thus we |
| W1:195.10 | For love can walk no road except the way of gratitude, and thus we | go who walk the way to God. |
| W1:196.4 | of perfect freedom. Let us take this step today that we may quickly | go the way salvation shows us, taking every step in its appointed |
| W1:196.7 | extent to you. From there you can at least consider if you want to | go along this painful path. Until this shift has been accomplished, |
| W1:196.8 | Our next steps will be easy if you take this one today. From there we | go ahead quite rapidly. For once you understand it is impossible that |
| W1:196.12 | There is no thought of God that does not | go with you to help you reach that instant and to go beyond it |
| W1:196.12 | God that does not go with you to help you reach that instant and to | go beyond it quickly, surely, and forever. When the fear of God is |
| W1:200.9 | Let us not lose our way again today. We | go to Heaven, and the path is straight. Only if we attempt to wander |
| W1:R6.7 | one exception to this lack of structuring. Permit no idle thought to | go unchallenged. If you notice one, deny its hold and hasten to |
| W1:R6.11 | toward the goal He set for us, allowing Him to teach us how to | go, and trusting Him completely for the way each practice period can |
| W1:202.1 | [182] I will be still a moment and | go home. Why would I choose to stay an instant more where I do not |
| W1:215.1 | with me in love. And I give thanks to Him for showing me the way to | go. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God created me. |
| W2:I.1 | introductions to the times in which we leave the world of pain and | go to enter peace. Now we begin to reach the goal this course has set |
| W2:I.8 | He chose for us and made the choice to follow it as He would have us | go. His hand has held us up. His thoughts have lit the darkness of |
| W2:WF.1 | God's Son? Forgiveness merely sees its falsity and therefore lets it | go. What then is free to take its place is now the Will of God. |
| W2:228.2 | am part of You. And my mistakes about myself are dreams. I let them | go today. And I stand ready to receive Your Word alone for what I |
| W2:WS.3 | to support the world of dreams and malice. Thus it lets illusions | go. By not supporting them, it merely lets them quietly go down to |
| W2:WS.3 | illusions go. By not supporting them, it merely lets them quietly | go down to dust. And what they hid is now revealed—an altar to the |
| W2:WIW.3 | The mechanisms of illusion have been born instead. And now they | go to find what has been given them to seek. Their aim is to fulfill |
| W2:245.1 | Your peace surrounds me, Father. Where I | go, Your peace goes there with me. It sheds its light on everyone I |
| W2:245.2 | And so we | go in peace. To all the world we give the message that we have |
| W2:254.2 | occur, we quietly step back and look at them, and then we let them | go. We do not want what they would bring with them. And so we do not |
| W2:264.1 | and behind, beside me, in the place I see myself, and everywhere I | go. You are in all the things I look upon, the sounds I hear, and |
| W2:275.2 | over nothing. For Your Voice will tell me what to do and where to | go, to whom to speak, and what to say to him, what thoughts to think, |
| W2:WIHS.2 | guides it to the outcome He perceives for it, becomes the means to | go beyond itself, to be replaced by the Eternal Truth. |
| W2:284.1 | the truth. I can elect to change all thoughts that hurt. And I would | go beyond these words today, go past all reservations, and arrive at |
| W2:284.1 | all thoughts that hurt. And I would go beyond these words today, | go past all reservations, and arrive at full acceptance of the truth |
| W2:287.1 | Where would I | go but Heaven? What could be a substitute for happiness? What gift |
| W2:298.1 | as mine, sure that in that alone I will be saved, sure that I | go through fear to meet my Love. |
| W2:300.2 | we give thanks today the world endures but for an instant. We would | go beyond that tiny instant to eternity. |
| W2:302.2 | Our Love awaits us as we | go to Him and walks beside us, showing us the way. He fails in |
| W2:306.1 | returns to me? Today I can forget the world I made. Today I can | go past all fear and be restored to love and holiness and peace. |
| W2:WILJ.2 | as well. And all the figures in the dream in which the world began | go with it. Bodies now are useless and will therefore fade away |
| W2:316.1 | every gift I give belongs to me. Each one allows a past mistake to | go and leave no shadow on the holy mind my Father loves. His grace is |
| W2:317.1 | the slave of time and human destiny. But when I willingly and gladly | go the way my Father's plan appointed me to go, then will I recognize |
| W2:317.1 | I willingly and gladly go the way my Father's plan appointed me to | go, then will I recognize salvation is already here, already given |
| W2:317.2 | way is what I choose today. Where it would lead me, do I choose to | go; what it would have me do, I choose to do. Your way is certain and |
| W2:322.1 | I sacrifice illusions, nothing more. And as illusions | go, I find the gifts illusions tried to hide, awaiting me in shining |
| W2:323.2 | we pay the debt we owe to truth—a debt which merely is the letting | go of self-deceptions and of images we worshiped falsely—truth |
| W2:324.1 | gave the plan for my salvation to me. You have set the way I am to | go, the role to take, and every step in my appointed path. I cannot |
| W2:324.1 | I merely follow in the way to You as You direct me and would have me | go. |
| W2:328.1 | find our own. And since our will is His, it is to Him that we must | go to recognize our will. |
| W2:334.1 | who hear and choose to follow Him. This is my choice today. And so I | go to find the treasures God has given me. |
| W2:WIM.1 | that what it sees is false. It undoes error but does not attempt to | go beyond perception nor exceed the function of forgiveness. Thus it |
| W2:342.2 | forgive me now. I come to you to take you home with me. And as we | go, the world goes with us on the way to God. |
| 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 |
| W2:FL.1 | beginning of our practicing and only to remind us that we seek to | go beyond them. Let us turn to Him Who leads the way and makes our |
| W2:FL.2 | already here, already serving us as gracious guidance in the way to | go. Let us together follow in this way that truth points out to us. |
| W2:E.4 | continue; now you walk with Him as certain as is He of where you | go; as sure as He of how you should proceed, as confident as He is of |
| W2:E.5 | and for peace and right direction. Joy attends our way. For we | go homeward to an open door which God has held unclosed to welcome us. |
| M:4.5 | First, they must | go through what might be called “a period of undoing.” This need not |
| M:4.6 | Next, the teacher of God must | go through a “period of sorting-out.” This is always somewhat |

| Tx:4.13 | This is the opposite of the ego-oriented teacher's | goal. He is concerned with the effect of his ego on other egos and |
| Tx:4.64 | less than this, and refuse to accept anything but this as your | goal. Watch your minds carefully for any beliefs that hinder its |
| Tx:4.73 | undertaken, consciously organized, and consciously directed. The | goal must be formulated clearly and kept in mind. As a teacher with |

| Tx:6.71 | Strengthening motivation for change is their first and foremost | goal. It is also their last and final one. |
| Tx:7.23 | You made the effort to learn, and the Holy Spirit has a unified | goal for all effort. He adapts the ego's potentials for excelling to |
| Tx:7.23 | for His. If different abilities are applied long enough to one | goal, the abilities themselves become unified. This is because they |
| Tx:7.35 | is the way in which the ego tries to use all abilities, since its | goal is always to make you believe that you are in opposition. |
| Tx:7.36 | The ego's | goal is as unified as the Holy Spirit's, and it is because of this |
| Tx:7.100 | pain must obviously avoid pain. Surely no one would object to this | goal if he recognized it. The problem is not whether what the Holy |
| Tx:8.13 | The Holy Spirit's teaching takes only one direction and has only one | goal. His direction is freedom, and His goal is God. Yet He cannot |
| Tx:8.13 | direction and has only one goal. His direction is freedom, and His | goal is God. Yet He cannot conceive of God without you, because it is |

| Tx:8.51 | and what you are forever. It is a journey without distance to a | goal that has never changed. Truth can only be experienced. It cannot |
| Tx:8.59 | to lose sight of the Holy Spirit's purpose and thus to confuse the | goal of His curriculum. |
| Tx:8.60 | the reaction to learning is depression, it is only because the | goal of the curriculum has been lost sight of. |
| Tx:8.63 | through the body but not in it. If the mind believes the body is its | goal, it will distort its perception of the body and, by blocking its |
| Tx:8.64 | understood at all. To confuse a learning device with a curriculum | goal is a fundamental confusion. Learning can hardly be arrested at |
| Tx:8.66 | a clear-cut indication of a poor learner. He has accepted a learning | goal in obvious contradiction to the unified purpose of the |
| Tx:8.103 | reality, though impossible, can be made into a very persistent | goal, even though you do not want it. But consider the result of this |
| Tx:10.43 | becomes more obviously inappropriate if one recognizes the ego's | goal, which is so clearly senseless that any effort exerted on its |
| Tx:10.43 | exerted on its behalf is necessarily expended on nothing. The ego's | goal is quite explicitly ego autonomy. From the beginning, then, its |
| Tx:10.46 | it has the power to do this, it does nothing else because its | goal of autonomy is nothing else. The ego is totally confused about |
| Tx:10.46 | is totally confused about reality, but it does not lose sight of its | goal. It is much more vigilant than you are because it is perfectly |
| Tx:10.50 | If the ego's | goal of autonomy could be accomplished, God's purpose could be |
| Tx:10.50 | and the false from the true. According to the ego's teaching, its | goal can be accomplished, and God's purpose can not. According to the |
| Tx:10.51 | as it exists in truth. The ego believes that to accomplish its | goal is happiness. But it is given you to know that God's function is |
| Tx:10.51 | be found apart from your joint will. Recognize only that the ego's | goal, which you have pursued quite diligently, has [only] brought you |
| Tx:10.86 | and you cannot perceive part of you as sick and achieve your own | goal. Brother, we heal together as we live together and love |
| Tx:11.18 | peace. Look straight at every image that rises to delay you, for the | goal is inevitable because it is eternal. The goal of love is but |
| Tx:11.18 | to delay you, for the goal is inevitable because it is eternal. The | goal of love is but your right, and it belongs to you despite your |
| Tx:11.21 | the complete trust I have in you, and we will easily accomplish the | goal of perfection together. For perfection is and cannot be denied. |
| Tx:11.36 | out to you and the one promise it will keep. For the ego pursues its | goal with fanatic insistence, and its reality testing, though |
| Tx:11.39 | cannot be defeated. His is the journey to accomplishment, and the | goal He sets before you He will give you. For He will never deceive |
| Tx:11.48 | up curriculum goals where yours have clearly failed. Your learning | goal has been not to learn, and this cannot lead to successful |
| Tx:11.49 | “Try to learn but do not succeed.” The result of this curriculum | goal is obvious. Every legitimate teaching aid, every real |
| Tx:11.49 | are all for learning facilitation, which this strange curriculum | goal is against. If you are trying to learn how not to learn and are |
| Tx:11.50 | yourself. A necessary minor, supplementing this major curriculum | goal, is learning how not to overcome the split which made this goal |
| Tx:11.50 | goal, is learning how not to overcome the split which made this | goal believable. And you can not overcome it, for all your learning |
| Tx:11.51 | if you look at it. Is it possible that the way to achieve a | goal is not to attain it? Resign now as your own teachers. This |
| Tx:11.52 | for learning it. The curriculum is totally unambiguous because the | goal is not divided, and the means and the end are in complete |
| Tx:11.65 | you need correction. For this belief is the destruction of peace, a | goal in direct opposition to the Holy Spirit's purpose. You see what |
| Tx:11.66 | it is split and wants to keep the split, it will believe it has one | goal by making it one. |
| Tx:11.68 | of integrity and enables it to believe that it is pursuing one | goal. As long as you perceive the world as split, you are not healed. |
| Tx:11.68 | as split, you are not healed. For to be healed is to pursue one | goal because you have accepted only one and want but one. |
| Tx:11.74 | condemned yourself to death. The death penalty is the ego's ultimate | goal, for it fully believes that you are a criminal, as deserving of |
| Tx:11.89 | Long ago we said that the Holy Spirit shares the | goal of all good teachers, whose ultimate aim is to make themselves |
| Tx:12.5 | want to kill you, and if you identify with it, you must believe its | goal is yours. |
| Tx:12.7 | This course has explicitly stated that its | goal for you is happiness and peace. Yet you are afraid of it. You |
| Tx:12.29 | of the ego's. The reason is equally clear, for they perceive the | goal of time as diametrically opposed. |
| Tx:12.31 | place of eternity, for like the Holy Spirit, the ego interprets the | goal of time as its own. The continuity of past and future under its |
| Tx:12.31 | of salvation which you must learn to accept if you would share His | goal of salvation for you. |
| Tx:12.71 | lightly, 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 |
| Tx:13.49 | know. The logic of the world must therefore lead to nothing, for its | goal is nothing. |
| Tx:13.54 | not realize that the foundation on which this most peculiar learning | goal depends means absolutely nothing. It does make sense to you. |
| Tx:13.60 | how to make nothing everything. Yet see that this has been your | goal and recognize how foolish it has been. Be glad it is undone, for |
| Tx:15.2 | Holy Spirit, uses time to convince you of the inevitability of the | goal and end of teaching. To the ego the goal is death, which is its |
| Tx:15.2 | of the inevitability of the goal and end of teaching. To the ego the | goal is death, which is its end. But to the Holy Spirit the goal is |
| Tx:15.2 | ego the goal is death, which is its end. But to the Holy Spirit the | goal is life, which has no end. |
| Tx:15.4 | for this is what all its teaching is directed to. Hell is its | goal, for although the ego aims at death and dissolution as an end, |
| Tx:15.4 | aims at death and dissolution as an end, it does not believe it. The | goal of death, which it craves for you, leaves it unsatisfied. No one |
| Tx:16.73 | you is that the present is useless to you while you pursue the ego's | goal as its ally. The past is gone; seek not to preserve it in the |
| Tx:17.26 | you. This is the truth that I would interpose between you and your | goal of madness. Be not separate from me, and let not the holy |
| Tx:17.44 | in this—the only difficult phase is the beginning. For here, the | goal of the relationship is abruptly shifted to the exact opposite of |
| Tx:17.45 | the practical results of asking Him to enter. At once His | goal replaces yours. This is accomplished very rapidly, but it makes |
| Tx:17.45 | clear. For the relationship as it is, is out of line with its own | goal and clearly unsuited to the purpose which has been accepted for |
| Tx:17.45 | which has been accepted for it. In its unholy condition, your | goal was all that seemed to give it meaning. Now it seems to make no |
| Tx:17.45 | have been broken off at this point, and the pursuit of the old | goal reestablished in another relationship. For once the unholy |
| 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 way |
| 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 | individuals 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 | Have 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 now |
| Tx:17.48 | in an insane relationship, recognized as such in the light of its | goal. |
| Tx:17.49 | thus—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 | truth 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 | and 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 | do 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 | is 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:17.60 | point of view. The situation now has meaning, but only because the | goal has made it meaningful. |
| Tx:17.61 | The | goal of truth has further practical advantages. If the situation is |
| Tx:17.61 | the experience. The Holy Spirit knows that the situation is as the | goal determines it and is experienced according to the goal. |
| 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 | faith 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 illusion |
| 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 | God 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:18.24 | bring a light into the darkness but made the darkness deeper. Your | goal was darkness in which no ray of light could enter. And you |
| 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 which |
| 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 it. |
| 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 not |
| Tx:18.66 | at 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 | never 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 quietly |
| Tx:19.45 | of an illusion. Such was the journey; such its ending. And in the | goal of truth which you accepted must all illusions end. |
| 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 you, |
| 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 | thing apart from the intention. The means seem real because the | goal is valued. And judgment has no value unless the goal is sin. |
| Tx:20.64 | because the goal is valued. And judgment has no value unless the | goal is sin. |
| Tx:20.66 | sinlessness is your escape from fear. Salvation is the Holy Spirit's | goal. The means is vision. For what the seeing look upon is sinless. |
| 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. This |
| Tx:22.34 | and it is their maker that sees through them. What was its maker's | goal but not to see? For this the body's eyes are perfect means, but |
| Tx:22.51 | mind? For both you cannot have. Which do you value? Which is your | goal? For one you see as means; the other, end. And one must serve |
| Tx:22.53 | To serve this end, the body must be perceived as sinless because the | goal is sinlessness. The lack of contradiction makes the soft |
| Tx:22.58 | have been answered. Seek not to change it nor to substitute another | goal. [This one was given you and only this.] Accept this one and |
| Tx:23.31 | of madness must be insane. Are you as certain that you realize the | goal is madness? |
| 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 is |
| 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 | he 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 | why 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:27.54 | cannot 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 should |
| 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 | that 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. What |
| 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 |
| W1:42.1 | which explains why you cannot fail in your efforts to achieve the | goal of the course. You will see because it is the Will of God. It is |
| 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 |
| W2:WILJ.1 | sight, perception gives a silent blessing and then disappears, its | goal accomplished and its mission done. |
| W2:312.1 | the holy sight of anyone who takes the Holy Spirit's purpose as his | goal for seeing. And he cannot fail to look upon what Christ would |
| W2:312.2 | Father, this is Your will for me today, and therefore it must be my | goal as well. |
| W2:314.1 | no effects. Death will not claim the future now, for life is now its | goal, and all the needed means are happily provided. Who can grieve |
| W2:318.1 | God has placed in me. I was created as the thing I seek. I am the | goal the world is searching for. I am God's Son, His one Eternal |
| W2:319.2 | Father, Your Will is total. And the | goal that stems from it shares its totality. What aim but the |
| W2:FL.3 | salvation. 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, |
| W2:FL.4 | us to be His own completion in reality. So let us not forget our | goal is shared. For it is that remembrance which contains the memory |
| W2:E.4 | sure as He of how you should proceed, as confident as He is of the | goal and of your safe arrival in the end. |
| M:2.5 | Those who would learn the same course share one interest and one | goal. And thus he who was the learner becomes a teacher of God |
| M:3.1 | a different relationship at the beginning, although the ultimate | goal is always the same—to make of the relationship a holy |
| M:4.24 | is gone. No clouds remain to hide the face of Christ. Now is the | goal achieved. Forgiveness is the final goal of the curriculum. It |
| M:4.24 | face of Christ. Now is the goal achieved. Forgiveness is the final | goal of the curriculum. It paves the way for what goes far beyond all |
| M:4.24 | learning. The curriculum makes no effort to exceed its legitimate | goal. Forgiveness is its single aim at which all learning ultimately |
| M:9.2 | insulting. The world's training is directed toward achieving a | goal in direct opposition to that of our curriculum. The world trains |
| M:10.3 | The aim of our curriculum, unlike the | goal of the world's learning, is the recognition that judgment in the |
| M:14.3 | “When not one thought of sin remains” appears to be a long-range | goal indeed. But time stands still and waits on the goals of God's |
| M:15.3 | this is wholly true? No, not yet, not yet. But this is still your | goal—why you are here. It is your function to prepare yourself to |
| M:16.1 | Not one is absent whom he needs; not one is sent without a learning | goal already set, and one which can be met that very day. For the |
| M:16.9 | state. All intermediate lessons will but lead to this and bring this | goal nearer to recognition. For magic of any kind, in all its forms, |
| M:17.3 | is anything but joy. The single aim of the teacher turns the divided | goal of the pupil into one direction, with the call for help becoming |
| M:26.3 | earth. But this is so rare that it cannot be considered a realistic | goal. If it happens, so be it. If it does not happen, so be it as |
| M:27.6 | world. All dreams will end with this one. This is salvation's final | goal, the end of all illusions. And in death are all illusions born. |
| M:28.3 | all mistakes undone. Attack is meaningless, and peace has come. The | goal of the curriculum has been achieved. Thoughts turn to Heaven and |
| M:28.6 | of evil dreams, the thought of hell is real. God's teachers have the | goal of wakening the minds of those asleep and seeing there the |

| Tx:23.33 | These do not seem to be the | goals of chaos, for by the great reversal, they appear to be the laws |
| Tx:24.8 | in a shared purpose. Specialness can never share, for it depends on | goals that you alone can reach. And he must never reach them, or your |
| Tx:24.10 | share with you. For your relationship has been made clean of special | goals. And would you now defeat the goal of holiness that Heaven gave |
| Tx:29.8 | The body, innocent of any goal, is your excuse for variable | goals you hold and force the body to maintain. You do not fear its |

| Tx:30.86 | of sacrifice apart from this idea. And it is this idea of different | goals which makes perception shift and meaning change. In one united |
| W1:24.4 | outcome you want. You will quickly realize that you have a number of | goals in mind as part of the desired outcome and also that these |
| W1:24.4 | of goals in mind as part of the desired outcome and also that these | goals are on different levels and often conflict. |
| W1:24.5 | each situation that occurs to you, and enumerate carefully as many | goals as possible that you would like to be met in its resolution. |
| W1:24.8 | nothing to do with it. You will also recognize that many of your | goals are contradictory, that you have no unified outcome in mind, |
| W1:24.8 | you must experience disappointment in connection with some of your | goals however the situation turns out. |
| W1:24.9 | After covering the list of as many hoped-for | goals as possible for each unresolved situation that crosses your |
| W1:25.1 | purpose; that is what it means. It is in recognizing this that your | goals become unified. It is in recognizing this that what you see is |
| W1:25.2 | the world and everything in it as meaningful in terms of ego | goals. These goals have nothing to do with your own best interests, |
| W1:25.2 | and everything in it as meaningful in terms of ego goals. These | goals have nothing to do with your own best interests, because the |
| W1:25.2 | to misuse it. When you believe this, you will try to withdraw the | goals you have assigned to the world instead of attempting to |
| W1:25.3 | Another way of describing the | goals you now perceive as valuable is to say that they are all |
| W1:25.3 | “personal” interests. Since you have no personal interests, your | goals are really concerned with nothing. In cherishing them, |
| W1:25.3 | concerned with nothing. In cherishing them, therefore, you have no | goals at all. And thus you do not know what anything is for. |
| W1:25.5 | It is crucial to your learning to be willing to give up the | goals you have established for everything. The recognition that they |
| W1:65.1 | salvation as your function and the relinquishment of all the other | goals you have invented for yourself. This is the only way in which |
| W1:65.4 | apart the time for God, as well as for all the trivial purposes and | goals you will pursue. This is part of the long range disciplinary |
| W1:74.1 | Peace has replaced the strange idea that you are torn by conflicting | goals. As an expression of the Will of God, you have no goal but His. |
| W1:83.2 | me from all conflict because it means I cannot have conflicting | goals. With one purpose only, I am always certain what to do, what to |
| W1:96.2 | Until you have accepted this, you will attempt endless lists of | goals you cannot reach; a senseless series of expenditures of time |
| W1:100.9 | deep within you, undismayed by all the little thoughts and foolish | goals you pass as you ascend to meet the Christ in you. |
| W1:104.6 | aside the conflicts of the world that offer other gifts and other | goals made of illusions, witnessed to by them, and sought for only in |
| W1:R3.4 | to cooperate in practicing salvation only if it interferes with | goals you hold more dear. When you withdraw the value given them, |
| W1:128.5 | from the world and go beyond all little values and diminished | goals. |
| W1:131.1 | Failure is all about you while you seek for | goals that cannot be achieved. You look for permanence in the |
| W1:131.2 | Goals which are meaningless are not attained. There is no way to | |
| W1:131.8 | you made and all its ways—its shifting patterns and uncertain | goals, its painful pleasures, and its tragic joys. God made no |
| W1:133.9 | it, for it needs to keep the halo which it uses to protect its | goals from tarnish and from rust, that you may see how innocent it is. |
| W1:133.10 | which could deceive but those who are content to be deceived. Its | goals are obvious to anyone who cares to look for them. Here is |
| W1:133.10 | failed to gain. He will believe that he has served the ego's hidden | goals. And though he tries to keep its halo clear within his vision, |
| W1:133.11 | unworthiness within himself. He who would still preserve the ego's | goals and serve them as his own makes no mistakes according to the |
| W1:133.12 | If you feel any guilt about your choice, you have allowed the ego's | goals to come between the real alternatives, and thus you do not |
| W1:135.17 | change. What it has learned before becomes the basis for its future | goals. Its past experience directs its choice of what will happen. |
| W1:138.3 | from what appears as opposites. Decision lets one of conflicting | goals become the aim of effort and expenditure of time. Without |
| W1:138.5 | and as it is accepted, it is known. But knowledge is beyond the | goals we seek to teach within the framework of this course. Ours are |
| W1:138.5 | seek to teach within the framework of this course. Ours are teaching | goals to be attained through learning how to reach them, what they |

| W1:164.9 | Christ's vision worthy to be sought above the world's unsatisfying | goals? Let not today slip by without the gifts it holds for you |
| W1:I2.1 | your willingness to make your weak commitment strong, your scattered | goals blend into one intent. You are not asked for total dedication |
| W1:181.3 | only this, for just a little while. We do not care about our future | goals, and what we saw an instant previous has no concern for us |
| W1:181.4 | hazard to success has been involvement with your past and future | goals. You have been quite preoccupied with how extremely different |
| W1:181.4 | You have been quite preoccupied with how extremely different the | goals this course is advocating are from those you held before. And |
| W1:181.8 | to keep us safe throughout the day. We do not seek for long range | goals. As each obstruction seems to block the vision of our |
| W1:186.10 | function given you. The images you make give rise to but conflicting | goals, impermanent and vague, uncertain and ambiguous. Who could be |
| W1:186.10 | in his efforts or direct his energies and concentrated drive toward | goals like these? The functions which the world esteems are so |
| W1:186.10 | times an hour at their most secure. What hope of gain can rest on | goals like this? |
| W1:200.8 | of Heaven and the way beyond. Peace is the answer to conflicting | goals, to senseless journeys, frantic, vain pursuits, and meaningless |
| W1:200.11 | way to leave the world of ambiguity and to replace our shifting | goals and solitary dreams with single purpose and companionship. For |
| W2:233.1 | You all my acts as well, that I may do Your will instead of seeking | goals which cannot be obtained and wasting time in vain imaginings. |

| Tx:I.5 | Herein lies the peace of | God. |
| Tx:1.4 | 4. All miracles mean life, and | God is the Giver of life. His Voice will direct you very |
| Tx:1.19 | on cooperation because the Sonship is the sum of all the Souls | God created. Miracles therefore rest on the laws of eternity, not of |
| Tx:1.33 | 27. A miracle is a universal blessing from | God through me to all my brothers. It is the privilege of the |
| Tx:1.34 | forsake them. Atonement is the natural profession of the Children of | God, because they have professed me. “Heaven and earth shall pass |
| Tx:1.34 | shall not pass away, because light is eternal. You are the work of | God, and His work is wholly lovable and wholly loving. This is how a |
| Tx:1.37 | and fear. It represents the original form of communication between | God and His Souls, involving an extremely personal sense of closeness |
| Tx:1.38 | Revelation unites Souls directly with | God. Miracles unite [Souls] directly with each other. Neither |

| Tx:1.43 | illusions about himself and puts him in communion with himself and | God. |
| Tx:1.45 | The Soul never loses its communion with | God. Only the mind needs Atonement. The miracle joins in the |
| Tx:1.54 | As a result, the doer's perceptions are aligned with truth as | God created it. |
| Tx:1.56 | what It perceives is true. It perceives both the creations of | God and the creations of man. Among the creations of man, it can also |
| Tx:1.59 | brothers and mine. It is a way of perceiving the universal mark of | God in them. The specialness of God's Sons does not stem from |
| Tx:1.59 | perception becomes distorted. When this occurs, the whole family of | God, or the Sonship, is impaired in its relationships. Ultimately, |
| Tx:1.59 | in its relationships. Ultimately, every member of the family of | God must return. The miracle calls him to return because it blesses |
| Tx:1.60 | “God is not mocked” is not a warning but a reassurance on this point. | God would be mocked if any of His creations lacked holiness. The |
| Tx:1.78 | me that you cannot attain. I have nothing that does not come from | God. The main difference between us as yet is that I have nothing |
| Tx:1.79 | Regarded along the vertical, man stands below me and I stand below | God. In the process of “rising up,” I am higher. This is because, |
| Tx:1.79 | up,” I am higher. This is because, without me, the distance between | God and man would be too great for you to encompass. |
| Tx:1.80 | distance as an elder brother to man on the one hand and as a Son of | God on the other. My devotion to my brothers has placed me in charge |
| Tx:1.81 | devices. When man returns to his original form of communication with | God, the need for miracles is over. The Holy Spirit mediates higher |
| 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:1.81 | open for revelation. Revelation is not reciprocal. It is always from | God to man. The miracle is reciprocal because it involves equality. |
| Tx:1.88 | has been completed, all talents will be shared by all the Sons of | God. God is not partial. All His Children have His total love, and |
| Tx:1.88 | been completed, all talents will be shared by all the Sons of God. | God is not partial. All His Children have His total love, and all His |
| Tx:1.88 | means that, unless you fully recognize your complete dependence on | God, you cannot know the real power of the Son in his true |
| Tx:1.89 | it. While the concept of lack does not exist in the creation of | God, it is very apparent in the creations of man. It is, in fact, the |
| Tx:1.91 | of 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:1.92 | a corollary to the original error that man can be separated from | God, requires correction at its own level before the error of |
| Tx:1.101 | Believe this and you will be free. Only | God can establish this solution, and this faith is His gift. |
| Tx:1.104 | us deceive ourselves into believing that we can relate in peace to | God or to our brothers with anything external.” |
| Tx:1.105 | Child of | God, you were created to create the good, the beautiful, and the |
| Tx:1.105 | the beautiful, and the holy. Do not lose sight of this. The love of | God for a little while must still be expressed through one body to |
| 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:2.5 | Because of its likeness to its Creator, it is creative. No Child of | God can lose this ability because it is inherent in what he is, but |
| Tx:2.7 | First, the assumption is implicit that what | God created can be changed by the mind of man. |
| Tx:2.9 | Third, the belief that man can distort the creations of | God, including himself, is accepted. |
| Tx:2.11 | was made as “a natural grand division,” or a projecting outward of | God. That is why everything that He created is like Him. Projection, |
| Tx:2.11 | everything that He created is like Him. Projection, as undertaken by | God, is very similar to the kind of inner radiance which the Children |
| Tx:2.12 | connotation of the term, included both the proper creation of man by | God and the proper creation by man in his right mind. The latter |
| Tx:2.12 | man in his right mind. The latter required the endowment of man by | God with free will because all loving creation is freely given. |
| Tx:2.14 | of miscreation. It still remains within him, however, to project as | God projected His own Spirit to him. In reality, this is his only |
| Tx:2.15 | basic misperception that man has the ability to usurp the power of | God. It can only be emphasized that he neither can nor has been able |
| Tx:2.18 | destroy peace. That is why the Bible speaks of “the peace of | God which passeth (human) understanding.” This peace is totally |
| Tx:2.18 | of any kind. It denies the ability of anything which is not of | God to affect you in any way. |
| Tx:2.20 | God and the Souls He created are completely dependent on each other. | |
| Tx:2.20 | been perfectly accomplished, but the creation by Souls has not. | God created Souls so He could depend on them because He created them |
| Tx:2.20 | Soul. This literally starves the Soul by denying its daily bread. | God offers only mercy. Your words should reflect only mercy because |
| Tx:2.48 | time and can become very acute, but the outcome is as certain as | God. |
| Tx:2.50 | The Children of | God are entitled to perfect comfort, which comes from a sense of |
| Tx:2.51 | is the only gift that is worthy of being offered to the altar of | God. This is because of the inestimable value of the altar itself. It |
| Tx:2.51 | was created perfect and is entirely worthy of receiving perfection. | God is lonely without His Souls, and they are lonely without Him. Men |
| Tx:2.80 | habit patterns which you have not developed dependably as yet. | God cannot ask more than you will. The strength to do comes from your |
| Tx:2.95 | the miracle, you have rejected fear. You have been afraid of | God, of me, of yourselves, and of practically everyone you know at |
| Tx:2.97 | a real expediter. Actually, “Cause” is a term properly belonging to | God, and “Effect,” which should also be capitalized, is His Son. This |
| Tx:2.100 | use of creation made this necessary as a corrective device. “And | God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that |
| Tx:2.101 | It should especially be noted that | God has only one Son. If all the Souls God created are His Sons, then |
| Tx:2.101 | especially be noted that God has only one Son. If all the Souls | God created are His Sons, then every Soul must be an integral part of |
| Tx:2.105 | creates is real in his own sight but not necessarily in the sight of | God. This basic distinction leads us directly into the real meaning |
| Tx:2.106 | he does not understand it. Judgment is not an essential attribute of | God. Man brought judgment into being only because of the separation. |
| Tx:2.108 | Last Judgment is generally thought of as a procedure undertaken by | God. Actually it will be undertaken by man with my help. It is a |
| Tx:2.109 | his own creations and will to preserve only what is good, just as | God Himself looked upon what He had created and knew that it was good. |
| Tx:2.110 | is frightening not only because it has been falsely projected onto | God, but also because of the association of “last” with death. This |
| Tx:3.2 | we said that awe is inappropriate in connection with the Sons of | God because you should not experience awe in the presence of your |
| Tx:3.3 | steps in this course, however, do involve a more direct approach to | God Himself. It would be most unwise to start on these steps without |
| Tx:3.3 | the experience will be more traumatic than beatific. Healing is of | God in the end. The means are being carefully explained to you. |
| Tx:3.9 | way evaluates what they do. It is strictly limited to an appeal to | God to heal their minds. There is no reference to the outcome of |
| Tx:3.10 | the present. Time is under my direction, but Timelessness belongs to | God alone. In time we exist for and with each other. In Timelessness |
| Tx:3.10 | we exist for and with each other. In Timelessness we coexist with | God. |
| Tx:3.11 | is seen from an upside-down point of view, it does appear as if | God permitted and even encouraged one of his Sons to suffer because |
| Tx:3.12 | my would-be followers, has led many people to be bitterly afraid of | God. This particularly anti-religious concept enters into many |
| Tx:3.12 | would have to pause and ask, “How could this be?” Is it likely that | God Himself would be capable of the kind of thinking which His own |
| Tx:3.13 | result, undertaken to justify the terrible misperception that | God Himself persecuted His own Son on behalf of salvation. The very |
| Tx:3.15 | misperception of truth by which man assigns his own “evil” past to | God. The “evil conscience” from the past has nothing to do with God. |
| Tx:3.15 | to God. The “evil conscience” from the past has nothing to do with | God. He did not create it, and He does not maintain it. God does not |
| Tx:3.15 | to do with God. He did not create it, and He does not maintain it. | God does not believe in karmic retribution. His Divine Mind does not |
| Tx:3.16 | responsible for a host of related errors including the belief that | God rejected man and forced him out of the Garden of Eden. It is also |
| Tx:3.17 | God Himself is not symbolic; He is fact. The Atonement too is totally | |
| Tx:3.19 | Nothing can prevail against a Son of | God who commends his Spirit into the hands of his Father. By doing |
| Tx:3.19 | of separation disappears, and level confusion vanishes. The Son of | God is part of the Holy Trinity, but the Trinity itself is One. There |
| Tx:3.19 | purpose creates perfect integration and establishes the peace of | God. Yet this vision can be perceived only by the truly innocent. |
| 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:3.24 | true state of mind of His Son. In this state, man's mind does see | God [and because] he sees Him as he is[, he knows] that the |
| Tx:3.28 | see anything but perfection. We have said many times that only what | God creates, or what man creates with the same will, has any real |
| 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 | recognize him that you can know him. While you ask questions about | God, you are clearly implying that you do not know Him. Certainty |
| Tx:3.36 | so that you can know him. Right perception is necessary before | God can communicate directly to His own altars which He has |
| Tx:3.37 | God is not a stranger to His Sons, and His Sons are not strangers to | |
| Tx:3.37 | them. That is the real meaning of the Biblical description of | God as “Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End.” It also explains |
| Tx:3.37 | can and must be stabilized, but knowledge is stable. “Fear | God and keep His commandments” should read “Know God and accept His |
| Tx:3.37 | is stable. “Fear God and keep His commandments” should read “Know | God and accept His certainty.” There are no strangers in His |
| Tx:3.37 | He created, you can create only what you know and accept as yours. | God knows His Children with perfect certainty. He created them by |
| Tx:3.45 | cease to be. This is impossible because it is part of the Soul which | God created and which is therefore eternal. |
| Tx:3.48 | God and the Souls He created remain in surety, and therefore know | |
| Tx:3.50 | Strong 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:3.57 | to mean “thought” and “likeness” is taken as “of a like quality.” | God did create the Soul in His own Thought and of a quality like to |
| Tx:3.59 | minds have willed to see themselves as separate. Each Soul knows | God completely. That is the miraculous power of the Soul. The fact |
| Tx:3.60 | Communion, not prayer, is the natural state of those who know. | God and His miracles are inseparable. How beautiful indeed are the |
| Tx:3.60 | miracles are inseparable. How beautiful indeed are the Thoughts of | God who live in His light! Your worth is beyond perception because it |
| Tx:3.66 | error of all those who believe they have usurped the power of | God. |
| 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:3.69 | their own rejection is impossible. You have not usurped the power of | God, but you have lost it. Fortunately, when you lose something, it |
| Tx:3.70 | routes from the denial of Authorship. The offense is never to | God, but only to those who deny Him. To deny His Authorship is to |
| 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 | of only one tree was “forbidden” to man in his symbolic garden. But | God could not have forbidden it or it could not have been eaten. If |
| Tx:3.75 | God 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 in |
| Tx:3.76 | self 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 is |
| Tx:3.78 | It is powerful, active, destructive, and clearly in opposition to | God because it literally denies His Fatherhood. Never underestimate |
| Tx:3.79 | Your creation by | God is the only foundation which cannot be shaken because the light |
| Tx:3.80 | To believe that they can be reconciled is to believe that | God and man can not. Only the oneness of knowledge is conflictless. |
| Tx:4.2 | speak from the Soul, you have chosen “to be still and know that I am | God.” These words are inspired because they come from knowledge. If |
| 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 fearful, |
| 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 did. |
| Tx:4.15 | easy 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, therefore, | |
| 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 | this 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 Him. |
| 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 | the 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 | is 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 made |
| 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 yourself. |
| Tx:4.54 | deeply repressed by the ego, is the declaration of your release. | God has given you everything. This is the one fact that means the ego |
| Tx:4.54 | is why we made no distinction before between having the Kingdom of | God and being the Kingdom of God. |
| Tx:4.54 | before 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 do |
| 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 | that 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 what |
| 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 | or 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 of |
| Tx:4.71 | body's 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 | gratitude 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 | but 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:4.93 | really want the rewards of the ego in the presence of the rewards of | God? |
| Tx:4.96 | what is true. It knows that what is true is everything that | God created. It is in complete and direct communication with every |
| 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 | and 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 have | |
| Tx:4.99 | Nothing 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:4.101 | mind. Even revelation is not enough because it is communication from | God. It is not enough until it is shared. God does not need |
| Tx:4.101 | it is communication from God. It is not enough until it is shared. | God does not need revelation returned to Him, which would clearly be |
| Tx:4.102 | God is praised whenever any mind learns to be wholly helpful. This is | |
| Tx:4.102 | so that nothing can hurt them. Their helpfulness is their praise of | God, and He will return their praise of Him because they are like |
| Tx:4.102 | of Him because they are like Him, and they can rejoice together. | God goes out to them and through them, and there is great joy |
| Tx:4.105 | meets them heals itself. Rehabilitation is an attitude of praising | God as He Himself knows praise. He offers praise to you, and you must |
| Tx:5.3 | enough to hold it by sharing it. It is impossible for a Child of | God to love his neighbor except as himself. That is why the healer's |
| Tx:5.5 | calls to every part of the Sonship to rejoice with them and lets | God Himself go out into them and through them. Only the healed mind |
| Tx:5.5 | the laws which the Soul obeys and therefore honors only the laws of | God. To Him, getting is meaningless and giving is all. Having |
| Tx:5.11 | the higher or the “true” perception, which is so close to truth that | God Himself can flow across the little gap. Knowledge is always ready |
| Tx:5.12 | God honored even the miscreations of His Children because they had | |
| Tx:5.12 | literal meaning of “carried” over since the last step is taken by | God. |
| Tx:5.17 | Spirit promotes healing by looking beyond it to what the Children of | God were before healing was needed and will be when they have been |
| Tx:5.17 | heal the separation by letting it go. This will is in you, because | God placed it in your mind, and although you can keep it asleep, you |
| Tx:5.18 | God Himself keeps this will alive by transmitting it from His Mind to | |
| Tx:5.18 | Spirit is the spirit of joy. He is the Call to return with which | God blessed the minds of His separated Sons. This is the vocation of |
| 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 to |
| 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:5.20 | whole Sonship is healed, there will be no call to return, but what | God creates is eternal. The Holy Spirit will remain with the Sons of |
| Tx:5.20 | God creates is eternal. The Holy Spirit will remain with the Sons of | God to bless their creations and keep them in the light of joy. |
| 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 you |
| Tx:5.23 | of choosing. This way is in you because there is also another way. | God did not leave His Children comfortless, even though they chose to |
| Tx:5.24 | the midst of the turmoil you have made for yourselves. The Voice for | God is always quiet, because it speaks of peace. Yet peace is |
| Tx:5.25 | mind which always speaks for the right choice because He speaks for | God. He is your remaining communication with God, which you can |
| Tx:5.25 | because He speaks for God. He is your remaining communication with | God, which you can interrupt but cannot destroy. |
| Tx:5.26 | of both is in your will and therefore in your mind. The Voice for | God comes from your own altars to Him. These altars are not things; |
| Tx:5.27 | you will to learn. I am your model for decision. By deciding for | God, I showed you that this decision can be made and that you can |
| Tx:5.28 | weariness. Our task is the joyous one of waking it to the Call for | God. Everyone will answer the Call of the Holy Spirit, or the Sonship |
| Tx:5.30 | mind to do this. This mind is the Holy Spirit, whose will is for | God always. He teaches you how to keep me as the model for your |
| Tx:5.31 | What we can accomplish together has no limits, because the Call for | God is the call to the unlimited. Child of God, my message is for you |
| Tx:5.31 | because the Call for God is the call to the unlimited. Child of | God, my message is for you to hear and give away as you answer the |
| Tx:5.33 | Being thought, the idea gains as it is shared. Being the Call for | God, it is also the idea of God. Since you are part of God, it is |
| Tx:5.33 | as it is shared. Being the Call for God, it is also the idea of | God. Since you are part of God, it is also the idea of yourself as |
| Tx:5.33 | the Call for God, it is also the idea of God. Since you are part of | God, it is also the idea of yourself as well as of all the parts of |
| Tx:5.33 | God, it is also the idea of yourself as well as of all the parts of | God. The idea of the Holy Spirit shares the property of other ideas, |
| Tx:5.34 | Your brother may have dissociated the Call for | God, just as you have. The dissociation is healed in both of you as |
| 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:5.38 | the task of the Holy Spirit to reinterpret you on behalf of | God. |
| Tx:5.39 | place in the Sonship and the rightful place of the Sonship [is] | God. This is your life, your eternity, and yourself. It is of this |
| Tx:5.41 | going counter to his will because part of his will is still for | God. Despite the ego's attempts to conceal this part, it is still |
| Tx:5.42 | at home there, too, because it is a place of peace, and peace is of | God. You who are part of God are not at home except in His peace. If |
| Tx:5.42 | it is a place of peace, and peace is of God. You who are part of | God are not at home except in His peace. If peace is eternal, you are |
| Tx:5.43 | and understand as He understands. His understanding looks back to | God in remembrance of me. He is in Holy Communion always, and He is |
| Tx:5.45 | guilt. They came from the Holy Spirit within you, and we know what | God creates is eternal. What fear has hidden still is part of you. |
| Tx:5.46 | it. It is yours because it is a part of you, just as you are part of | God because He created you. |
| Tx:5.50 | even in this world to listen to one voice. If you are part of | God and the Sonship is one, you cannot be limited to the “self” the |
| Tx:5.52 | that was in me is still irresistibly drawn to every mind created by | God, because God's Wholeness is the wholeness of His Son. |
| Tx:5.54 | you have placed in your mind. By following Him, He leads you back to | God where you belong, and how can you find this way except by taking |
| Tx:5.55 | forsake you, because to forsake you would be to forsake myself and | God who created me. You will forsake yourselves and God if you |
| Tx:5.55 | myself and God who created me. You will forsake yourselves and | God if you forsake any of your brothers. You are more than your |
| Tx:5.55 | him. You must learn to see him as he is and know that he belongs to | God as you do. How could you treat your brother better than by |
| Tx:5.55 | do. How could you treat your brother better than by rendering unto | God the things which are God's? |
| 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:5.57 | because only the complete can think completely, and the thinking of | God lacks nothing. Everything you think that is not through the Holy |
| Tx:5.58 | it and share it, that it may always be ours. I place the peace of | God in your heart and in your hands, to hold and share. The heart is |
| Tx:5.58 | give it. We cannot lose. My judgment is as strong as the wisdom of | God, in Whose heart and hands we have our being. His quiet Children |
| Tx:5.58 | our being. His quiet Children are His blessed Sons. The thoughts of | God are with you. |
| Tx:5.60 | it is also the symbol of guilt. Guilt is more than merely not of | God. It is the symbol of the attack on God. This is a totally |
| Tx:5.60 | is more than merely not of God. It is the symbol of the attack on | God. This is a totally meaningless concept except to the ego, but do |
| Tx:5.61 | is the part of the mind which believes in division. How can part of | God detach itself without believing it is attacking Him? We spoke |
| Tx:5.62 | However ridiculous the idea of attacking | God may be to the sane mind, never forget that the ego is not sane. |
| 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, not |
| Tx:5.65 | believes 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 | obey. 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 other, |
| Tx:5.67 | cannot eradicate it. You made the other, and so you can. Only what | God creates is irreversible and unchangeable. What you have made can |
| Tx:5.67 | have 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 | But 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 theirs. |
| 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 | the 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 | because 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 | order 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 | are 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 | if I will let Him. I will to let Him, by allowing Him to decide for | God for Me. |
| Tx:6.6 | lies 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 | you are teaching persecution. This is not a lesson which the Sons of | God should want to teach if they are to realize their own salvation. |
| 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 | the ego did not matter. As the world judges these things, but not as | God knows them, I was betrayed, abandoned, beaten, torn, and finally |
| Tx:6.15 | to 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 | it. 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 mind |
| 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 | are 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 what |
| 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 | therefore use it well. He can inspire perception and lead it toward | God by making it parallel to God's way of thinking and thus guarantee |
| 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 is |
| 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 | all perception is guided by the Holy Spirit, Whose Mind is fixed on | God. Only the Holy Spirit can resolve conflict, because only the Holy |
| 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 He |
| 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 be |
| Tx:6.42 | fully, 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 | Spirit 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 | developed, or you cannot use them. This is not true of anything that | God created, but it is the kindest solution possible to what you have |
| 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 wrong. |
| 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 them. |
| 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 to |
| Tx:6.56 | It 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 | what 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 Him |
| 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 the |
| Tx:6.76 | help in reminding yourselves to allow the Holy Spirit to decide for | God for you. |
| Tx:6.80 | To desire wholly is to create, and creating cannot be difficult if | God Himself created you as a creator. The second step, then, is still |
| 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 to |
| 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 | minds only what God put there, you are acknowledging your mind as | God created it. Therefore, you are accepting it as it is. Since it is |
| 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 God. |
| 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 being |
| Tx:6.91 | for 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 preparation |
| Tx:6.91 | is 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. What |
| Tx:6.95 | already 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 | you 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 | what 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 Him |
| 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 gradual. | |
| Tx:7.7 | applies 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 | know 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:7.9 | is. If you obscure the Kingdom, you are perceiving what is not of | God. |
| Tx:7.14 | or learning, because there is no belief. There is only certainty. | God and His Sons, in the surety of being, know that what you project |
| 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 | Kingdom, because 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 |
| 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 | all efforts and all results. By teaching the power of the Kingdom of | God Himself, He teaches you that all power is yours. Its application |
| 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 | from the same Source, [because] inspiration comes from the Voice for | God, and certainty comes from the laws of God. Healing does not come |
| Tx:7.33 | comes from the Voice for God, and certainty comes from the laws of | God. Healing does not come directly from God, Who knows His creations |
| 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 | creation 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 you |
| Tx:7.34 | reminds 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 | this 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 | a gift. 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 | of approaching knowledge by thinking in accordance with the laws of | God and recognizing their universality. Without this recognition, you |
| 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 the |
| Tx:7.38 | this 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 is |
| 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 | from 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 | He is therefore in conflict and teaching conflict. Can anything of | God not be for all and for always? |
| Tx:7.46 | is 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 inspired |
| Tx:7.46 | inconsistently understood. Understanding means consistence because | God means consistence. Since that is His meaning, it is also yours. |
| Tx:7.46 | meaning, and your only meaning, comes from His and is like His. | God cannot be out of accord with Himself, and you cannot be out of |
| 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:7.48 | This in no way contradicts the changelessness of mind as | God created it, but you think that you have changed it as long as you |
| 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 upon |
| 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 one. |
| 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 of |
| Tx:7.61 | the 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 part |
| Tx:7.72 | is 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 because it |
| 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 | to 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 | believe 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 | will attack, believing you have been attacked. But see the love of | God in you, and you will see it everywhere, because it is everywhere. |
| 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 | you 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 world's |
| 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 | free 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 | against 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:7.102 | to you and one which is both very fearful and very desirable. Yet | God wills. He does not wish. Your will is as powerful as His because |
| Tx:7.102 | You can wish for the impossible, but you can will only with | God. This is the ego's weakness and your strength. |
| Tx:7.104 | surprising.] The Holy Spirit is perfectly trustworthy, as you are. | God Himself trusts you, and therefore your trustworthiness is beyond |
| 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 the |
| 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 | nor 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 | point 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 | yourselves. 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. Perceiving |
| Tx:7.111 | you to recognize and appreciate and know. Perceiving the Majesty of | God as your brother is to accept your own inheritance. God gives only |
| Tx:7.111 | Majesty of God as your brother is to accept your own inheritance. | God gives only equally. If you recognize His gift in anyone else, you |
| Tx:7.112 | before that only the whole Sonship is worthy to be co-creator with | God, because only the whole Sonship can create like Him. Whenever you |
| Tx:7.112 | and 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 and |
| Tx:7.112 | you. 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:7.113 | are like the Sons as they are like the Father. Know then the Sons of | God, and you will know all creation. |
| Tx:8.2 | restored when you meet its conditions. This is not a bargain made by | God, Who makes no bargains. It is merely the result of your misuse of |
| 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 | is free. 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 | and has only one goal. His direction is freedom, and His goal is | God. Yet He cannot conceive of God without you, because it is not |
| 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. When |
| Tx:8.13 | is 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 | how 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:8.17 | power and glory and establishing them as yours. You share them as | God shares them, because this is the natural outcome of their being. |
| Tx:8.18 | His own Fatherhood must be extended outward. You who belong in | God have the holy function of extending His Fatherhood by placing no |
| Tx:8.18 | Spirit teach you how to do this, for you will know what it means of | God Himself. |
| 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 will |
| Tx:8.23 | Spirit teaches that all strength is in God and therefore in you. | God wills no one suffer. He does not will anyone to suffer for a |
| Tx:8.24 | Power and glory belong to | God alone. So do you. God gives whatever belongs to Him, because He |
| 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 denying |
| Tx:8.28 | the 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 hear |
| 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 will, |
| 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 not |
| Tx:8.31 | as 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 invincible |
| 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 can |
| 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 | yourself. In our remembrance of each other lies our remembrance of | God, and in this remembrance lies your freedom, because your freedom |
| Tx:8.36 | the 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 | Him, how can you know it without recognizing Him? The recognition of | God is the recognition of yourself. There is no separation of God and |
| 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 | that 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 and |
| Tx:8.37 | will with mine, you are signifying your awareness that the Will of | God is one. |
| Tx:8.38 | all 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 it. |
| Tx:8.39 | knows 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 because |
| 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 | than 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 the |
| 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 as |
| 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 its |
| Tx:8.47 | from 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 Fatherhood |
| Tx:8.47 | know 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 alone. |
| 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 | born 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 | We 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 | make 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 | with 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 you |
| 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 | you, 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 | gifts 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 | devotion 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 one |
| 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 ego's, |
| Tx:8.90 | and 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 | the 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 of |
| 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 is your |
| 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 and |
| 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 never |
| Tx:8.102 | The fact that | God is love does not require belief, but it does require acceptance. |
| Tx:8.104 | God in His devotion to you created you devoted to everything and gave | |
| 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 | from 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 | in 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 deceive |
| 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: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:9.2 | error 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 | not 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 | reality. 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, that |
| Tx:9.18 | reality 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 was |
| 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 | his 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 | right one will. Trust Him, for help is His function, and He is of | God. |
| Tx:9.33 | yourself. 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 | are 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 Glory |
| Tx:9.34 | God is more than you only because He created you, but not even this | |
| Tx:9.34 | wholeness 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 not |
| 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:9.46 | God Himself is incomplete without me. | |
| 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 | is 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 | replace 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 so. |
| 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 is |
| 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 | Him. That is why your will is holy. Can anything exceed the love of | God? Can anything, then, exceed your will? Nothing can reach you from |
| 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 how |
| Tx:9.62 | Has | God changed His Mind about me? |
| Tx:9.63 | is 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 | created is impossible. But remember that it is as impossible for | God. The law of creation is that you love your creations as yourself |
| 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 | this 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 exchange |
| 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 | To 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 | of 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. Your |
| Tx:9.77 | in 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 caricatures |
| 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 he |
| Tx:9.78 | he 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 by |
| Tx:9.81 | you 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 save |
| Tx:9.81 | projecting 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 | of nothing. And in that awareness you are healed. You will hear the | god you listen to. You made the god of sickness, and by making him, |
| Tx:9.82 | you 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 | instant 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 | to 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 | cannot 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. He |
| 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 | sickness you made, but you are. He is the symbol of willing against | God, and you are afraid of him, because he cannot be reconciled with |
| 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 His. |
| Tx:9.88 | His. Everything else is merely lawless and therefore chaotic. Yet | God Himself has protected everything He created by His laws. |
| Tx:9.88 | lawful, and the chaotic is without meaning because it is without | God. You have given your peace to the gods you made, but they are not |
| Tx:9.89 | not 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 sin |
| 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 | know yourself in order to be sick. This is the offering which your | god demands because, having made him out of your insanity, he is an |
| 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 | this 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 | for 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 | denied 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 is |
| 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 | to yourself. 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 you |
| Tx:10.6 | with 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 will |
| Tx:10.8 | What 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 | Infinity is meaningless without you, and you are meaningless without | God. There is no end to God and His Son, for we are the universe. God |
| Tx:10.9 | without 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, and |
| Tx:10.9 | God. 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 | was 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 contained? |
| Tx:10.11 | God 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 | interpretation, 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 | the 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 | Him, 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 | lay 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 | whole. 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 | Him 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 gift. |
| 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 determine |
| 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 | you 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 has |
| 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 is |
| 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 and |
| 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 always |
| 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 | him 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 | Soul, 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 | God 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 | power 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 His, |
| Tx:10.33 | you 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 | As 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 | as 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:10.42 | All power is of | God. What is not of Him has no power to do anything. |
| Tx:10.44 | accord 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 share |
| 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 | all 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 | sane 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 witnesses |
| Tx:10.57 | does 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 | your 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 | yourself? 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 | god 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 | his 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 | name 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 take |
| 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 His |
| 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 you |
| 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 | great 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 the |
| Tx:10.69 | have 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 | and 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 | will 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 the |
| 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 | are recognized, and because no one is without your help, the Help of | God goes with you everywhere. As you become willing to accept this |
| Tx:10.87 | you, 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. Yet |
| 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 without |
| 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 | sake 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 | must 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 | for 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 your |
| Tx:11.19 | You still want what | God wills, and no nightmare can defeat a Child of God in his purpose. |
| Tx:11.19 | You 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 | asking 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 | For 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 | death. 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 | of 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 is |
| 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 | voice of the ego, which tells you that you have been treacherous to | God and therefore deserve death. You will think that death comes from |
| 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 ego, |
| 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 | is 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 | but 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 and |
| 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. But |
| 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 this |
| 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 invisible, |
| 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 | is 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 | realize that there is no journey, but only an awakening. The Son of | God, who sleepeth not, has kept faith with his Father for you. There |
| 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 attack |
| 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 interpreted |
| Tx:12.6 | was 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 | will 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 | did not. You would rather be slaves of the crucifixion than Sons of | God in redemption. For your individual death is more valued than your |
| Tx:12.15 | is given 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 and |
| 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 your |
| 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 | gladness, 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 you |
| Tx:12.40 | what 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 of |
| Tx:12.64 | God 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, and |
| Tx:12.66 | only 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 | it 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 | gift 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 all |
| 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 His |
| 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 to |
| 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 | that 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 Holy |
| Tx:13.16 | for 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 | difference, for He knows not of differences. Can you see guilt where | God knows there is perfect innocence? You can deny His knowledge, but |
| 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 | teach, 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. There |
| 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 would |
| Tx:13.30 | all 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 | centered 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 | value 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 it |
| 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 | Spirit 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 be |
| 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 Holy | |
| 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 the |
| 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 it |
| 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 | is 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 | is also 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 it, |
| Tx:13.72 | only 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 or |
| 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 | for 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 of |
| 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 wisdom |
| 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 protector |
| Tx:13.78 | and 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 think |
| 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 effects |
| 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 could |
| 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 | that 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 release |
| 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 of |
| Tx:13.90 | darkness 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 | but 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 only |
| 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 you |
| Tx:14.4 | only the Holy Spirit can answer God for you, for only He knows what | God is. Everything else that you have placed within your mind cannot |
| Tx:14.4 | mind 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 | Love, to share with all the lonely ones who denied Him with you? | God makes this possible. Would you deny His yearning to be known? You |
| Tx:14.5 | here 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 you, |
| Tx:14.5 | 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 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 | for 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 | to 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 are. |
| 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 | From their point of view, it is not true. Yet it is true because | God knows it. These are clearly opposite viewpoints of what the |
| 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 | fusing 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 | 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 apart, |
| Tx:14.34 | You know not | God because you know not this. And yet you do know God and also this. |
| 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 Spirit |
| 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 the |
| Tx:14.38 | you 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 Holiness |
| 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, and |
| 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 alone |
| Tx:14.56 | As | God communicates to the Holy Spirit in you, so does the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:14.56 | translate His communications through you so you can understand them. | God has no secret communications, for everything of Him is perfectly |
| Tx:14.57 | identity 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 Him, |
| 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 being |
| 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 not |
| 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 | be 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 | in 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 | not 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 is |
| 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 | because 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 will |
| 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 | And 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 | task 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 you. He |
| Tx:15.29 | all 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 give |
| 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 | for 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 | not beyond immediate learning unless you prefer to believe that what | God wills takes time. And this means only that you would rather delay |
| 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 | you. 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 believe |
| 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 | blessing, 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 | apart 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 His |
| 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 be |
| 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, by |
| 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 sharing. |
| Tx:15.60 | give. 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 is |
| 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 | that 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 | the 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 | it 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 | because 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 the |
| 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 | price 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 | it 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, as |
| Tx:16.25 | for 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 Him |
| 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 the |
| 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 else |
| 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 | which 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 relationship |
| Tx:16.38 | you 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 | therefore wholly without fear. Whom God remembers must be whole. And | God has never forgotten what makes Him whole. In your completion lies |
| 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 God's |
| 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 you |
| 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 of |
| 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 out |
| 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, and |
| 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 impossible |
| 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 must |
| 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 | yourself 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 made |
| 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 | Holy 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 you |
| 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 broken |
| Tx:17.36 | be 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:17.42 | For here is only healing, already complete and perfect. For here is | God, and where He is, only the perfect and complete can be. |
| 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 Spirit's |
| 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:18.9 | only the truth about each other can abide. Here you are joined in | God, as much together as you are with Him. The original error has not |
| Tx:18.10 | You are so firmly joined in truth that only | God is there. And He would never accept something else instead of |
| Tx:18.10 | cannot remain to darken the holy place in which you stand together. | God is with you, my brothers. Let us join in Him in peace and |
| Tx:18.11 | and love has shined upon you, blessing your relationship with truth. | God and His whole creation have entered it together. How lovely and |
| 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 | so do the real world and the truth of Heaven join in the Will of | God. The dream of waking is easily transferred to its reality. For |
| 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 | God Himself received it. You cannot take it back. You have accepted | God. The holiness of your relationship is established in Heaven. You |
| Tx:18.27 | wish to understand. That wish was the desire to be holy. The Will of | God is granted you. For you desire the only thing you ever had or |
| 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:18.31 | joined with you to give the little spark of your desire the power of | God Himself, can you remain in darkness? You are coming home together |
| Tx:18.31 | light will the Great Rays extend back into darkness and forward unto | God to shine away the past and so make room for His eternal Presence, |
| Tx:18.34 | what is this but the determination to be as you would make yourself? | God did not create His dwelling-place unworthy of Him. And if you |
| Tx:18.35 | believe that it is up to you to establish the conditions for peace. | God has established them. They do not wait upon your willingness for |
| 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:18.40 | for you impossible. What you believe to be impossible will be if | God so wills it, but you will remain quite unaware of it. If you |
| Tx:18.40 | in orders of difficulty in miracles is centered on this. Everything | God wills is not only possible but has already happened. And that is |
| 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 | will 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 to |
| 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 aside |
| 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 | result 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 God's |
| 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:19.92 | quite forgotten; the cleavage of your Self from you—the fear of | God, the final step in your dissociation. |
| 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 fear. |
| 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 you. |
| 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 | found; 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 | on 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 wandered |
| 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 | it 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 you |
| 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 | in 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 | desire 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, Whose |
| 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 is |
| 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 him, |
| 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 | must 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 responsible |
| 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 could |
| 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 | they 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 | see 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 envy |
| 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 | recognize 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 | You are not joined together by this mouse but by the Will of | God. And can a mouse betray whom God has joined? |
| 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 yours. |
| 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 | is 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 | And 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? The |
| 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 meet |
| 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 what |
| 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 knows. |
| 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 are |
| 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 at |
| 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 | more 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 that |
| 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 sure |
| Tx:24.49 | here 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 this |
| 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 | your 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 he |
| 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 | will 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 | maintain 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 has |
| 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 | who 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. Not |
| 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 Father's, |
| 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 | love 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 | as 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 witness |
| 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? Could |
| 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 die. |
| 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 | want 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 | not 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 | though 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 | is 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 be |
| 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 | because 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 never |
| 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 | not 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 | he 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 | sacrifice 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, did |
| Tx:29.60 | a 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 | that 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 isolation. |
| 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 | him, 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 | one. 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 | do 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 | then 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 and |
| Tx:30.82 | Would | God have left the meaning of the world to your interpretation? If He |
| Tx:30.91 | You 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:31.21 | Voice, He cannot hear a different answer from the one He gave when | God appointed Him His only Son. |
| Tx:31.32 | be no ancient penalty exacted from your brother or yourself. For | God has said there is no sacrifice that can be asked; there is no |
| Tx:31.42 | They have no meaning. You can not escape from what you are. For | God is merciful and did not let His Son abandon Him. For what He is, |
| Tx:31.44 | all. It is an idol, made to take the place of your reality as Son of | God. The concept of the self the world would teach is not the thing |
| 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:31.70 | to see. 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:31.72 | concept of yourself be changed to one which brings the peace of | God. |
| Tx:31.76 | The veil across the face of Christ, the fear of | God and of salvation, and the love of guilt and death, they all are |
| Tx:31.77 | saved himself, and thus is he a savior to the rest. To everyone has | God entrusted all, because a partial savior would be one who is but |
| 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 |
| Tx:31.83 | all its forms wherever it occurs. It would persuade the holy Son of | God he is a body, born in what must die, unable to escape its frailty |
| Tx:31.87 | left to veil the truth. [He would remove all misery from you, whom | God created altars unto joy.] He would not leave you comfortless, |
| Tx:31.87 | is real in you. His strength is yours because He is the Self that | God created as His only Son. |
| Tx:31.88 | The images you make can not prevail against what | God Himself would have you be. Be never fearful of temptation then, |
| Tx:31.88 | the world, for they are joined in all the power of the Will of | God. And what they will is only what He wills. |
| Tx:31.90 | I am as | God created me. His Son can suffer nothing. And I am His Son. |
| Tx:31.91 | replacing all your weakness with the strength that comes from | God and that can never fail. And thus are miracles as natural as fear |
| Tx:31.92 | You are as | God created you, and so is every living thing you look upon, |
| Tx:31.93 | gift I ask when in exchange I lay before your feet the peace of | God and power to bring this peace to everyone who wanders in the |
| Tx:31.93 | will behold it not. To give this gift is how to make it yours. And | God ordained in loving kindness that it be for you. |
| Tx:31.94 | the Christ appeared. Hear me, my brothers, hear and join with me. | God has ordained I cannot call in vain, and in His certainty I rest |
| W1:12.8 | is meaningless in truth. Beneath your words is written the Word of | God. The truth upsets you now, but when your words have been erased, |

| W1:14.1 | of course, the reason why a meaningless world is impossible. What | God did not create does not exist. And everything that does exist |

| W1:14.5 | God did not create that war, and so it is not real. | God did not create that airplane crash, and so it is not real. God |
| W1:14.5 | real. God did not create that airplane crash, and so it is not real. | God did not create that disaster [specify], and so it is not real. |
| W1:14.7 | and others are part of your personal hell. It does not matter. What | God did not create can only be in your own mind apart from His. |
| W1:14.8 | God did not create a meaningless world. | |
| W1:14.10 | God did not create a meaningless world. He did not create [specify | |
| W1:19.2 | at all. And salvation must be possible because it is the Will of | God. |
| W1:20.3 | be a trivial purpose? And can the world be saved if you are not? | God has one Son, and he is the resurrection and the life. His Will is |
| W1:29.2 | irreverent, senseless, funny, and even objectionable. Certainly | God is not in a table, for example, as you see it. Yet we emphasized |

| W1:38.1 | power of God is made available. And there is nothing the power of | God cannot do. |
| W1:38.2 | equal in its power to save anyone. If you are holy, so is everything | God created. You are holy because all things He created are holy. And |
| W1:38.7 | There is nothing my holiness cannot do because the power of | God lies in it. |
| W1:39.4 | How could you to whom your holiness belongs be excluded from it? | God does not know unholiness. Can it be He does not know His Son? |
| W1:40.3 | several of the attributes which you associate with being a Son of | God, applying them to yourself. One practice period might, for |
| W1:40.4 | I am blessed as a Son of | God. I am happy, peaceful, loving, and contented. |
| W1:40.6 | I am blessed as a Son of | God. I am calm, quiet, assured, and confident. |
| W1:40.7 | available, merely telling yourself that you are blessed as a Son of | God will do. |
| W1:41.3 | you wherever you go. Nothing can destroy your peace of mind because | God goes with you wherever you go. |
| W1:41.7 | It is quite possible to reach | God. In fact it is very easy because it is the most natural thing in |
| W1:41.9 | You can indeed afford to laugh at fear thoughts, remembering that | God goes with you wherever you go. |
| W1:42.1 | the goal of the course. You will see because it is the Will of | God. It is His strength, not your own, that gives you power. And it |
| W1:42.2 | God is indeed your strength. And what He gives is truly given. This | |
| W1:42.2 | but be in the right place at the right time. Such is the strength of | God. Such are His gifts. |
| W1:42.5 | Vision must be possible. | God gives truly; or, |
| W1:43.1 | Perception is not an attribute of | God. His is the realm of knowledge. Yet He has created the Holy |
| W1:43.1 | Mediator between perception and knowledge. Without this link with | God, perception would have replaced knowledge forever in your minds. |
| W1:43.1 | have replaced knowledge forever in your minds. With this link with | God, perception will become so changed and purified that it will lead |
| W1:43.2 | In | God you cannot see. Perception has no function in God and does not |
| W1:43.2 | In God you cannot see. Perception has no function in | God and does not exist. Yet in salvation, which is the undoing of |
| W1:43.2 | what never was, perception has a mighty purpose. Made by the Son of | God for an unholy purpose, it must become the means for the |
| W1:43.2 | to God's. Healed perception becomes the means by which the Son of | God forgives his brother and thus forgives himself. |
| W1:43.3 | You cannot see apart from | God because you cannot be apart from God. Whatever you do, you do in |
| W1:43.3 | You cannot see apart from God because you cannot be apart from | God. Whatever you do, you do in Him because whatever you think, you |
| W1:43.3 | it shares the Holy Spirit's purpose, then you cannot see apart from | God. |
| W1:43.6 | God is my Source. I cannot see this desk apart from Him. God is my | |
| W1:43.6 | God is my Source. I cannot see this desk apart from Him. | God is my Source. I cannot see that picture apart from Him. |
| W1:43.13 | God is my Source. I cannot see you apart from Him. | |
| W1:43.16 | God is my Source. I cannot see this apart from Him. | |
| W1:44.6 | to escape from darkness, whatever you may believe to the contrary. | God is the Light in which you see. You are attempting to reach Him. |
| W1:45.2 | You think with the Mind of | God. Therefore you share your thoughts with Him, as He shares His |
| W1:45.2 | alike or to make one. Nor do the thoughts you think with the Mind of | God leave your mind, because thoughts do not leave their source. |
| W1:45.2 | not leave their source. Therefore your thoughts are in the Mind of | God, as you are. They are in your mind as well, where He is. As you |
| W1:45.3 | there because they cannot have left. What is thought by the Mind of | God is eternal, being part of creation. |
| W1:45.4 | back, and we will not let the beliefs of the world tell us that what | God would have us do is impossible. |
| W1:45.5 | Instead, we will try to recognize that only what | God would have us do is possible. We will also try to understand that |
| W1:45.5 | us do is possible. We will also try to understand that only what | God would have us do is what we want to do. And we will also try to |
| W1:45.5 | to feel confident that you will succeed today. It is the Will of | God. |
| W1:45.9 | have cluttered up your mind are the thoughts which you thought with | God in the beginning. They are there in your mind now, completely |
| W1:45.10 | for today are directed. Here is your mind joined with the Mind of | God. Here are your thoughts one with His. |
| W1:45.11 | —approach it as you would an altar dedicated in Heaven itself to | God the Father and God the Son. For such is the place you are trying |
| W1:45.11 | you would an altar dedicated in Heaven itself to God the Father and | God the Son. For such is the place you are trying to reach. You will |
| W1:45.12 | it is to you to understand the holiness of the mind that thinks with | God. Take a minute or two as you repeat the idea throughout the day |
| 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 |
| W1:46.5 | God is the Love in which I forgive you, [name]. | |
| W1:46.7 | God is the Love in which I forgive myself. | |
| W1:46.9 | God is the Love with which I love myself. God is the Love in which I | |
| W1:46.9 | God is the Love with which I love myself. | God is the Love in which I am blessed. |
| W1:46.11 | I cannot be guilty because I am a Son of | God. I have already been forgiven. No fear is possible in a mind |
| W1:46.11 | have already been forgiven. No fear is possible in a mind beloved of | God. There is no need to attack, because Love has forgiven me. |
| W1:46.14 | God is the Love in which I forgive you. | |
| 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 |
| W1:47.5 | God is the Strength in which I trust. | |
| W1:47.6 | trusting yourself that you will gain confidence. But the strength of | God in you is successful in all things. |
| W1:47.8 | nothing is impossible. There is a place in you where the strength of | God abides. |
| W1:47.9 | is your right because you are giving your trust to the strength of | God. |
| 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 |
| W1:49.2 | The part that is listening to the Voice of | God is calm, always at rest, and wholly certain. It is really the |
| 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 |
| W1:49.3 | knowing that in doing so we are joining our will with the Will of | God. He wants you to hear His Voice. He gave It to you to be heard. |
| W1:49.4 | that cover your real thoughts and obscure your eternal link with | God. Sink deep into the peace that waits for you beyond the frantic, |
| W1:49.4 | reach the place where you are truly welcome. We are trying to reach | God. |
| W1:50.1 | time. In this world, you believe you are sustained by everything but | God. Your faith is placed in the most trivial and insane symbols— |
| 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 | not 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 truth |
| 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 mind, |
| 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 |
| W1:58.4 | truth about me. In the presence of my holiness, which I share with | God Himself, all idols vanish. |
| 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 the |
| 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 share |
| 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 |
| W1:60.2 | [46] | God is the Love in which I forgive. God does not forgive, because He |
| W1:60.2 | [46] God is the Love in which I forgive. | God does not forgive, because He has never condemned. The blameless |
| W1:60.2 | on earth. It will bring me near enough to Heaven that the Love of | God can reach down to me and raise me to my home. |
| 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 |
| W1:60.6 | [50] I am sustained by the Love of | God. As I listen to God's Voice, I am sustained by His Love. As I |
| 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 |
| W1:66.6 | God gives me only happiness. He has given my function to me. | |
| 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 | only 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 | than the one God gave me. Let me not use this to justify a function | God did not give me. |
| W1:83.5 | [66] 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. This |
| 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 not |
| 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 | Light 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 |
| W1:97.9 | Spirit am I, a holy Son of | God, free of all limits, safe and healed and whole, free to forgive, |
| 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. |
| W1:99.8 | Salvation is my only function here. | 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 |
| W1:99.17 | Salvation is my only function here. | God still is Love, and this is not His Will. |
| 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. |
| W1:103.4 | God, being Love, is also happiness. To fear Him is to be afraid of | |
| 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 |
| W1:103.7 | God, being Love, is also happiness. And it is happiness I seek today. | |
| 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 | 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 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 | essential 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 happiness |
| W1:117.5 | God, being Love, is also happiness. | |
| 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, while |
| 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 illusions |
| W1:120.5 | I rest in | God. |
| 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 |
| W1:122.15 | I have accepted this as true. Today I have received the gifts of | God. |
| 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:R5.5 | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. | |
| 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:R5.13 | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. | |
| W1:171.1 | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. | |
| W1:171.2 | [151] All things are echoes of the Voice of | God. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:171.2 | [151] All things are echoes of the Voice of God. | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:171.3 | [152] The power of decision is my own. | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:172.1 | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. | |
| W1:172.2 | [153] In my defenselessness my safety lies. | 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. |
| W1:172.3 | [154] I am among the ministers of God. | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:173.1 | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. | |
| W1:173.2 | [155] I will step back and let Him lead the way. | 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. |
| W1:173.3 | [156] I walk with God in perfect holiness. | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:174.1 | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. | |
| W1:174.2 | [157] Into His Presence would I enter now. | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:174.3 | [158] Today I learn to give as I receive. | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:175.1 | 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 am I. |
| W1:175.3 | [160] I am at home. Fear is the stranger here. | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:176.1 | 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. |
| W1:176.2 | [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. |
| W1:176.3 | [162] I am as God created me. | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:177.1 | 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. |
| W1:177.2 | [163] There is no death. The Son of God is free. | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:177.3 | [164] Now are we one with Him Who is our Source. | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:178.1 | 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. |
| W1:178.2 | [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. |
| W1:178.3 | [166] I am entrusted with the gifts of God. | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:179.1 | 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. |
| W1:179.2 | [167] There is one life, and that I share with God. | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:179.3 | [168] Your grace is given me. I claim it now. | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:180.1 | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. | |
| W1:180.2 | [169] By grace I live. By grace I am released. | 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. |
| W1:180.3 | [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 |
| W1:185.11 | unanswered who requests an answer which is his to give? The peace of | God is yours. |
| W1:185.12 | 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 of God |
| W1:185.12 | 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 place of |
| 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 to |
| W1:185.13 | whenever any gift of God has been requested and received by anyone. | God gives but to unite. To take away is meaningless to Him. And when |
| W1:185.14 | that hate has sought to sever, but which still remains as | God created it. With help like this beside us, can we fail today as |
| W1:185.14 | like this beside us, can we fail today as we request the peace of | God be given us? |
| W1:186.1 | It does not judge your proper role. It but acknowledges the Will of | God is done on earth as well as Heaven. It unites all wills on earth |
| W1:186.3 | that modesty is outraged. It is pride that would deny the call of | God Himself. |
| W1:186.6 | is this image which quails and retreats in terror as the Voice for | God assures you that you have the strength, the wisdom, and the |
| W1:186.6 | the truth in you, and misery can come not near the holy home of | God. |
| W1:186.7 | All this the Voice for | God relates to you. And as He speaks, the image trembles and seeks to |
| W1:186.7 | not upon this little pile of dust. What can it tell the holy Son of | God? Why need he be concerned with it at all? |
| 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 | one in thought, for fear has gone. And here, before the altar to one | God, one Father, one Creator and one thought, we stand together as |
| 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 |
| W1:187.11 | see it everywhere. We would behold it shining with the grace of | God in everyone. We would not have it be withheld from anything we |
| W1:188.3 | The peace of | God is shining in you now and from your heart extends around the |
| W1:188.4 | all measure, given and returned. To you, the giver of the gift, does | God Himself give thanks. And in His blessing does the light in you |
| W1:188.5 | The peace of | God can never be contained. Who recognizes it within himself must |
| W1:188.5 | He forgives because he recognized the truth in him. The peace of | God is shining in you now and in all living things. In quietness is |
| W1:188.6 | of worldly things outside yourself, become the holy messengers of | God Himself. These thoughts you think with Him. They recognize their |
| W1:188.6 | recognize their home. And they point surely to their Source where | God the Father and the Son are one. |
| W1:188.7 | you are the co-creator of all things that live. For as the peace of | God is shining in you, it must shine on them. |
| W1:188.8 | back to where they fall in line with all the thoughts we share with | God. We will not let them stray. We let the light within our minds |
| W1:188.9 | our minds restored with them, and we acknowledge that the peace of | God still shines in us and from us to all living things that share |
| 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 |
| W1:189.9 | denied is surely there if it be true, and can be surely reached. | God knows His Son and knows the way to him. He does not need His Son |
| W1:190.1 | it takes which will not disappear if seen aright. For pain proclaims | God cruel. How could it be real in any form? It witnesses to God the |
| W1:190.1 | God cruel. How could it be real in any form? It witnesses to | God the Father's hatred of His Son, the sinfulness He sees in him, |
| 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 |
| W1:190.3 | part of love. And fear, denying love and using pain to prove that | God is dead, has shown that death is victor over life. The body is |
| W1:190.3 | has shown that death is victor over life. The body is the Son of | God, corruptible in death, as mortal as the Father he has slain. |
| 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 |
| W1:191.1 | have done by giving to the world the role of jailer to the Son of | God. What could it be but vicious and afraid, fearful of shadows, |
| 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, |
| W1:193.1 | God does not know of learning. Yet His Will extends to what He does | |
| W1:193.2 | God sees no contradictions. Yet His Son believes he sees them. Thus | |
| W1:193.2 | give him vision that will lead him back to where perception ceases. | God does not perceive at all. Yet it is He Who gives the means by |
| 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 |
| W1:193.12 | Heaven's Teacher sets before you that all pain may disappear and | God may be remembered by His Son? |
| 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 |
| W1:193.20 | you hold the key that opens Heaven's gate and brings the Love of | God the Father down to earth at last, to raise it up to Heaven. God |
| W1:193.20 | of God the Father down to earth at last, to raise it up to Heaven. | God will take this final step Himself. Do not deny the little steps |
| W1:194.1 | place of peace where you await with certainty the final step of | God. How far are we progressing now from earth! How close are we |
| 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 |
| W1:194.8 | creature not respond with healed perception? Who entrusts himself to | God has also placed the world within the hands to which he has |
| 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 |
| W1:195.6 | we offer thanks for nothing and we fail to recognize the gifts of | God to us. |
| 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 body. |
| W1:202.1 | Voice 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 | my 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 | forever 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 |
| W1:205.1 | I am not at home. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as | God created me. |
| 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 | boundless 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 not |
| W1:208.1 | find the peace of God. It is within my heart, which witnesses to | God Himself. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God |
| 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 free. |
| W1:209.1 | I am. The Love of God proclaimed me as His Son. The Love of | God within me sets me free. I am not a body. I am free. For I am |
| 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 God, |
| 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 | He 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 | will 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 me |
| 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 |
| W1:214.1 | as what belongs to me. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as | God created me. |
| 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. |
| W1:217.1 | my thanks are due? 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. |
| W1:220.1 | [200] There is no peace except the peace of | God. Let me not wander from the way of peace, for I am lost on other |
| W1:220.1 | me follow Him Who leads me home, and peace is certain as the Love of | God. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God created me. |
| W1:220.1 | as the Love of God. 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 |
| W2:234.1 | unified as one. Nothing has ever happened to disturb the peace of | God the Father and the Son. This we accept as wholly true today. |
| W2:235.1 | forever in His arms. I am the Son He loves. And I am saved because | God in His mercy wills it so. |
| W2:236.1 | which I alone can rule. And thus I set it free to do the Will of | God. |
| W2:237.1 | the day. I bring the world the tidings of salvation that I hear as | God my Father speaks to me. And I behold the world that Christ would |
| W2:237.2 | is my eyes today, and His the ears which listen to the Voice of | God today. Father, I come to You through Him Who is Your Son and my |
| 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, |
| W2:243.1 | make. Thus do I free myself and what I look upon, to be in peace as | God created us. |
| 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.3 | is evil; timelessness must have an end; eternal life must die. And | God Himself has lost the Son He loves, with but corruption to |
| 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 |
| W2:261.1 | danger, nor attempt to find my peace in murderous attack. I live in | God. In Him I find my refuge and my strength. In Him is my Identity. |
| W2:262.1 | our Source, eternally united in Your Love, eternally the holy Son of | God. |
| W2:263.2 | walk together to our Father's house as brothers and the holy Sons of | God. |
| W2:266.2 | acknowledging our Self in each of us, united in the holy Love of | God. How many saviors God has given us! How can we lose the way to |
| W2:266.2 | Self in 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 |
| W2:267.1 | Surrounding me is all the life that | God created in His Love. It calls to me in every heartbeat and in |
| W2:267.1 | me peace; each breath infuses me with strength. I am a messenger of | God, directed by His Voice, sustained by Him in love, and held |
| W2:269.2 | Him Whose Self is ours. We are one because of Him Who is the Son of | God, of Him Who is our own Identity. |
| W2:270.2 | sight, we offer healing to the world through Him, the holy Son whom | God created whole, the holy Son whom God created one. |
| 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 |
| W2:280.1 | Thought of God but is forever pure. Can I lay limits on the Son of | God, whose Father willed that he be limitless and like Himself in |
| W2:WIHS.1 | and dreams, perception leads to knowledge through the grace that | God has given Him, to be His gift to everyone who turns to Him for |
| W2:WIHS.4 | From knowledge, where He has been placed by | God, the Holy Spirit calls to you to let forgiveness rest upon your |
| W2:WIHS.5 | beloved Son. Would you refuse to take the function of completing | God when all He wills is that you be complete? |
| 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 |
| W2:287.1 | for happiness? What gift could I prefer before the peace of | God? What treasure would I seek and find and keep that can compare |
| W2:WIRW.5 | has served His purpose. Now He waits but that one instant more for | God to take His final step, and time has disappeared, taking |
| 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:WILJ.1 | Christ's Second Coming gives the Son of | God the gift to hear the Voice for God proclaim that what is false is |
| W2:WILJ.1 | Second Coming gives the Son of God the gift to hear the Voice for | God proclaim that what is false is false and what is true has never |
| W2:WILJ.2 | now are useless and will therefore fade away because the Son of | God is limitless. |
| W2:WILJ.4 | away all tears, and gently waken from his dream of pain the Son whom | God acknowledges as His. Be not afraid of this. Salvation asks you |
| W2:315.1 | this gift and takes it as its own. And everyone who finds the way to | God becomes my savior, pointing out the way to me and giving me his |
| 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. |
| W2:318.1 | saved because salvation's purpose is to find the sinlessness which | God has placed in me. I was created as the thing I seek. I am the |
| 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:WICR.4 | We are creation—we the Sons of | God. We seem to be discrete and unaware of our eternal unity with |
| W2:WICR.4 | be done on earth, only to be restored to sanity, and to be but as | God created us. |
| W2:321.2 | all the world's salvation when we learn our freedom can be found in | God alone. |
| W2:325.1 | thoughts a gentle world comes forth, with mercy for the holy Son of | God, to offer him a kindly home where he can rest a while before he |
| W2:325.1 | his brothers walk ahead with him and find the way to Heaven and to | God. |
| 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:WIE.1 | is weak and love is fearful, life is really death, and what opposes | God alone is true. |
| W2:WIE.2 | the Infinite. In its insanity it thinks it has become a victor over | God Himself, and in its terrible autonomy, it “sees” the Will of God |
| W2:WIE.2 | God Himself, and in its terrible autonomy, it “sees” the Will of | God has been destroyed. It dreams of punishment and trembles at the |
| W2:WIE.3 | The Son of | God is egoless. What can he know of madness and the death of God when |
| W2:WIE.3 | Son of God is egoless. What can he know of madness and the death of | God when he abides in Him? What can he know of sorrow and of |
| W2:WIE.4 | price for faith in it is so immense that crucifixion of the Son of | God is offered daily at its darkened shrine and blood must flow |
| W2:WIE.5 | Itself. And peace will be restored forever to the holy minds which | God created as His Son, His dwelling-place, His joy, His love, |
| 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 |
| W2:334.1 | Him. This is my choice today. And so I go to find the treasures | God has given me. |
| 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 |
| W2:338.1 | fear thought for a happy thought of love. He crucified himself. Yet | God has planned that His beloved Son will be redeemed. |
| 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.1 | and joy established without opposite. I am the holy home of | God Himself. I am the Heaven where His love resides. I am His holy |
| W2:WAI.2 | almost over now. Yet in the final days of this one year we gave to | God together, you and I, we found a single purpose that we shared. |
| 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:FL.5 | now. And we are saved from all the wrath we thought belonged to | God and found it was a dream. We are restored to sanity in which we |

| M:I.4 | learning situation which teaches nothing but despair and death, | God sends His teachers. And as they teach His lessons of joy and |
| M:I.5 | And what else is hell? This is a manual for the teachers of | God. They are not perfect or they would not be here. Yet it is their |
| M:1.1 | A teacher of | God is anyone who chooses to be one. His qualifications consist |
| M:1.1 | a single light, but that is enough. He has entered an agreement with | God even if he does not yet believe in Him. He has become a bringer |
| M:1.1 | He has become a bringer of salvation. He has become a teacher of | God. |
| M:1.3 | There is a course for every teacher of | God. The form of the course varies greatly. So do the particular |
| M:1.4 | was never a question of outcome, for what can change the Will of | God? But time, with its illusions of change and death, wears out the |
| M:1.4 | in it. Yet time has an ending, and it is this that the teachers of | God are appointed to bring about. For time is in their hands. Such |
| M:2.2 | was established and completed simultaneously, for the Will of | God is entirely apart from time. So is all reality, being of Him. The |
| M:2.5 | purposes. The relationship is holy because of that purpose, and | God has promised to send His Spirit into any holy relationship. In |
| M:2.5 | and one goal. And thus he who was the learner becomes a teacher of | God himself, for he has made the one decision that gave his teacher |
| M:3.1 | The teachers of | God have no set teaching level. Each teaching-learning situation |
| M:3.1 | a holy relationship in which both can look upon the Son of | God as sinless. There is no one from whom a teacher of God cannot |
| M:3.1 | the Son of God as sinless. There is no one from whom a teacher of | God cannot learn, so there is no one whom he cannot teach. However, |
| M:3.1 | plan includes very specific contacts to be made for each teacher of | God. There are no accidents in salvation. Those who are to meet will |
| M:3.3 | of one permits the illusion of the other. In time, the teacher of | God seems to begin to change his mind about the world with the single |
| M:3.4 | again, for it is the destiny of all relationships to become holy. | God is not mistaken in His Son. |
| M:3.5 | of the teachers who falter and may even seem to fail. No teacher of | God can fail to find the Help he needs. |
| M:4.1 | Nor at the beginning stages of their functioning as teachers of | God have they as yet acquired the deeper characteristics that will |
| M:4.1 | deeper characteristics that will establish them as what they are. | God gives special gifts to His teachers because they have a special |
| M:4.1 | situation is geared, become characteristic of all teachers of | God who have advanced in their own learning. In this respect they are |
| M:4.2 | All differences among the Sons of | God are temporary. Nevertheless, in time it can be said that the |
| M:4.2 | Nevertheless, in time it can be said that the advanced teachers of | God have the following characteristics: |
| M:4.3 | because cause and effect are never separated. The teachers of | God have trust in the world, because they have learned it is not |
| M:4.3 | keeps all things safe. It is through this Power that the teachers of | God look on a forgiven world. |
| M:4.4 | 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 make the |
| M:4.5 | circumstances. These changes are always helpful. When the teacher of | God has learned that much, he goes on to the second stage. |
| M:4.6 | Next, the teacher of | God must go through a “period of sorting-out.” This is always |
| 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:4.7 | the desirable, it will engender enormous conflict. Few teachers of | God escape this distress entirely. There is, however, no point in |
| M:4.7 | the period of overlap is apt to be one in which the teacher of | God feels called upon to sacrifice his own best interests on behalf |
| M:4.8 | of settling down.” This is a quiet time in which the teacher of | God rests a while in reasonable peace. Now he consolidates his |
| M:4.8 | learned. Its potential is literally staggering, and the teacher of | God is now at the point in his progress at which he sees in it his |
| M:4.8 | do.” How simple is the obvious! And how easy to do! The teacher of | God needs this period of respite. He has not yet come as far as he |
| M:4.9 | stage is indeed a “period of unsettling.” Now must the teacher of | God understand that he did not really know what was valuable and what |
| M:4.12 | The peace of mind which the advanced teachers of | God experience is largely due to their perfect honesty. It is only |
| M:4.12 | self-deception is dishonesty. There is no challenge to a teacher of | God. Challenge implies doubt, and the trust on which God's teachers |
| M:4.12 | unchanging and unchangeable beyond appearances, and for the Son of | God and his Creator. How could they not succeed? They choose in |
| M:4.13 | apart? Judgment destroys honesty and shatters trust. No teacher of | God can judge and hope to learn. |
| M:4.14 | of God's curriculum and its replacement by insanity. No teacher of | God but must learn—and fairly early in his training—that |
| M:4.17 | joy comes from their understanding Who created them. And does what | God created need defense? No one can become an advanced teacher of |
| M:4.17 | God created need defense? No one can become an advanced teacher of | God until he fully understands that defenses are but the foolish |
| M:4.17 | and more powerful its defenses seem to be. Yet when the teacher of | God finally agrees to look past them, he finds nothing was there. |
| M:4.17 | are laid down. It is safety. It is peace. It is joy. And it is | God. |
| M:4.18 | The term generosity has special meaning to the teacher of | God. It is not the usual meaning of the word; in fact, it is a |
| M:4.18 | means “giving away” in the sense of “giving up.” To the teachers of | God, it means “giving away” in order to keep. This has been |
| M:4.18 | of levels, the word means the exact opposite to the teachers of | God and to the world. |
| M:4.19 | The teacher of | God is generous out of self-interest. This does not refer, however, |
| 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:23.3 | 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 the |
| 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. |
God's (852) | ||
| Tx:1.21 | expressions of total forgiveness. Through miracles, man accepts | God's forgiveness by extending it to others. |

| Tx:1.53 | in this respect and thus uproots the real source of fear. Whenever | God's reassurances are experienced as threat, it is always because |
| Tx:1.59 | of perceiving the universal mark of God in them. The specialness of | God's Sons does not stem from exclusion but from inclusion. All my |

| Tx:2.21 | of injustice if that is what his mind creates. You are afraid of | God's Will because you have used your own will, which He created in |
| Tx:2.80 | from your own undivided will to do. There is no strain in doing | God's Will as soon as you recognize that it is also your own. |
| Tx:3.21 | vicious. Sacrificing another in any way is a clear cut violation of | God's own injunction that man should be merciful even as his Father |
| Tx:3.49 | I cannot unite your will with | God's for you, but I can erase all misperceptions from your mind if |
| Tx:3.53 | sense, when their behavior is unstable they are disagreeing with | God's idea of the creation. Man can do this if he chooses, but he |
| Tx:3.58 | it need but know yourself, and your knowledge is complete. To know | God's miracle is to know Him. |
| Tx:3.59 | thinking, in which if anyone has everything, there is nothing left. | God's miracles are as total as His Thoughts because they are His |
| Tx:4.8 | the conflict within it. The ego is a contradiction. Man's self and | God's Self are in opposition. They are opposed in creation, in will, |
| Tx:4.40 | nature of invention is not worthy of the abstract creativity of | God's creations. |
| Tx:4.55 | The calm being of | God's Kingdom, which in your sane mind is perfectly conscious, is |
| Tx:4.57 | left undone accordingly, and then change your minds to think with | God's. |
| Tx:4.58 | much easier than trying to think against it. Your mind is one with | God's. Denying this and thinking otherwise has held your ego together |
| Tx:4.89 | demonstrate that you are not an ego. I repeat that I do not choose | God's channels wrongly. The Holy One shares my trust and always |
| Tx:4.102 | its own individual willingness to share in it. The truly helpful are | God's miracle workers whom I direct until we are all united in the |
| Tx:5.3 | and returns thanks to the Father for radiating His joy upon it. Only | God's holy Children are worthy to be channels of His beautiful joy, |
| Tx:5.10 | open to many different interpretations. As a man and as one of | God's creations, my right thinking, which came from the Universal |
| Tx:5.18 | not have understood the call to right thinking. The Holy Spirit was | God's Answer to the separation, the means by which the Atonement |
| Tx:5.20 | willingness to learn. It is the final lesson that I learned, and | God's Sons are as equal as learners as they are as Souls. The Voice |
| Tx:5.26 | The Holy Spirit is the way in which | God's Will can be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Both Heaven and |
| Tx:5.32 | of the Holy Trinity because His Mind is partly yours and also partly | God's. This needs clarification, not in statement, since we have said |
| Tx:5.36 | meaningless in eternity. We have said before that the Holy Spirit is | God's Answer to the ego. Everything of which the Holy Spirit reminds |
| Tx:5.50 | belongs to every part. It is shared because it is loving. Sharing is | God's way of creating and also yours. Your ego can keep you in exile |
| Tx:5.52 | me is still irresistibly drawn to every mind created by God, because | God's Wholeness is the wholeness of His Son. |
| Tx:5.54 | on it. Make it dependable in my name, because my name is the name of | God's Son. What I learned I give you freely, and the mind which was |
| Tx:5.55 | your brother better than by rendering unto God the things which are | God's? |
| Tx:5.57 | it. The full power of creation cannot be expressed as long as any of | God's ideas withhold it from the Kingdom. The joint will of all the |
| Tx:5.61 | before of the authority problem as involving the concept of usurping | God's power. The ego believes that this is what you did because it |
| Tx:5.79 | can be no case against a Child of God, and every witness to guilt in | God's creations is bearing false witness to God Himself. |
| Tx:5.80 | Appeal everything you believe gladly to | God's own Higher Court, because it speaks for Him and therefore |
| Tx:5.83 | whose mind is stayed (or set) on Him,” a statement which means that | God's peace is set in the Holy Spirit because it is fixed on God. It |
| Tx:6.12 | There is no choice in this because only you can be the foundation of | God's church. A church is where an altar is, and the presence of the |
| Tx:6.25 | appreciated except by a whole mind which recognizes the wholeness of | God's creation and by this recognition knows its Creator. Exclusion |
| Tx:6.31 | Spirit's perception is the counterpart of the perfect equality of | God's knowing. The ego's perception has no counterpart in God, but |
| Tx:6.33 | of the thinker from which they [extend] outward. This is as true of | God's thinking as it is of yours. Because your minds are split, you |
| Tx:6.33 | inspire perception and lead it toward God by making it parallel to | God's way of thinking and thus guarantee their ultimate meeting. This |
| Tx:6.36 | This is the way in which you must perceive | God's creations, bringing all of your perceptions into the one |
| Tx:6.52 | Your abilities are totally useless in the presence of | God's accomplishments and also of yours. Accomplishments are results |
| Tx:6.57 | joyous. This is an ongoing process, not in time, but in eternity. | God's extending outward, though not His completeness, is blocked when |
| Tx:6.77 | however, be insane to believe that it is up to you to decide what | God's creations are. The Holy Spirit perceives the conflict exactly |
| Tx:6.80 | it is a giant step toward the unified perception which parallels | God's knowing. |
| Tx:6.91 | is not apparent to you. This is why you must be vigilant on | God's behalf. The ego speaks against His creation and therefore does |
| Tx:7.2 | 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 | creations. Only in this way can all creative power extend outward. | God's accomplishments are not yours. But yours are like His. He |
| Tx:7.3 | limitless, it does not stop. It creates forever, but not in time. | God's creations have always been, because He has always been. Your |
| Tx:7.4 | give, not bargain. To bargain is to limit giving, and this is not | God's Will. To will with God is to create like Him. God does not |
| Tx:7.16 | of His message is always the same, and only the meaning matters. | God's law of Creation in perfect form does not involve the use of |
| Tx:7.26 | God's meaning waits in the Kingdom, because that is where He placed | |
| Tx:7.26 | Kingdom, because it belongs there, as you do. How can you, who are | God's meaning, perceive yourselves as absent from it? You can see |
| Tx:7.28 | Because | God's equal Sons have everything, they cannot compete. Yet if they |
| Tx:7.34 | difficulty, because every part of creation is of one order. This is | God's Will and yours. The laws of God establish this, and the Holy |
| Tx:7.65 | Any belief that you accept which is apart from this will obscure | God's Voice in you and will therefore obscure God to you. Unless you |
| Tx:7.65 | your sanity, and your limitless power. This limitless power is | God's gift to you, because it is what you are. If you dissociate your |
| Tx:7.66 | Perceived without your part in it, | God's creation is perceived as weak, and those who see themselves as |
| 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 | This 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 yours. |
| Tx:7.93 | not 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 | gave 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:7.100 | its truth has nothing to do with your willingness at all. Truth is | God's Will. Share His Will, and you share what He knows. Deny His |
| 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 | for 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 | you 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 the |
| 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 accepting |
| 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 God |
| 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 attempt |
| Tx:8.13 | is 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 is |
| 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 and |
| Tx:8.17 | the 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 | why 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 | cannot 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 this |
| Tx:8.31 | cannot oppose yours without competing with it and thereby violating | God's Will for you. |
| Tx:8.32 | only 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 any |
| 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 is. |
| 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 knows |
| 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 for |
| Tx:8.48 | you think you are unwilling to will with God, you are not thinking. | God's Will is thought. It cannot be contradicted by thought. God does |
| 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 function |
| Tx:8.49 | apart 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 purpose, |
| 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 between |
| 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 | only 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 His, |
| Tx:8.97 | from His, it can only decide either that there is no God or that | God's Will is fearful. The former accounts for the atheist and the |
| 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 and |
| Tx:8.105 | Remember, then, that | God's Will is already possible and nothing else will ever be. This is |
| Tx:8.112 | for 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 | to 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 will |
| 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 you |
| 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 | create 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. Even |
| 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 | value, would not have it so, and so it is not so. Your value is in | God's Mind and therefore not in yours alone. To accept yourself as |
| Tx:9.57 | it 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 | in the world can take this responsibility from you. You can violate | God's laws in your imagination, but you cannot escape from them. They |
| 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 | not what you are. Your denial of reality precludes the acceptance of | God's gift, because you have accepted something else in its place. If |
| Tx:9.72 | attack, 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 this |
| 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 | accept 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 is |
| Tx:9.85 | God, 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 he |
| 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 the |
| Tx:10.5 | wills 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 | it 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 | This 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 not |
| 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 | and therefore not yours. In this interpretation, it is possible for | God's Will and yours to conflict. God then may seem to demand of you |
| Tx:10.13 | Immortality 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 | For 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 | must 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 | hurt 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 waits |
| 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 | deny 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 in |
| 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, only |
| Tx:10.50 | God's purpose can not. According to the Holy Spirit's teaching, only | God's purpose is accomplishment, and it is already accomplished. |
| Tx:10.51 | accomplish its goal is happiness. But it is given you to know that | God's function is yours and happiness cannot be found apart from your |
| 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 recognize |
| 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 | placed 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 redeemed |
| Tx:10.68 | God's Son is saved. Bring only this awareness to the Sonship, and you | |
| 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 | you. 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 | but 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 | the 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 | goal 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 | it 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 | world 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 | attack 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 crucified, |
| 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 given |
| 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 judge |
| Tx:11.94 | Atonement 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 | condemn 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 | Accepting 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 | light 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 you |
| Tx:12.16 | games you offer it can heal it, for here is the real crucifixion of | God's Son. |
| Tx:12.18 | will 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 he |
| 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 gone, |
| Tx:12.52 | with 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 | In your 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 special. |
| 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 lesson |
| 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 him to |
| Tx:13.73 | can make decisions by yourself or for yourself alone. No thought of | God's Son can be separate or isolated in its effects. Every decision |
| Tx:13.76 | Would you deny the truth of | God's decision and place your pitiful appraisal of yourself in place |
| Tx:13.76 | place 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 to |
| Tx:14.5 | God. 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:14.6 | but the message given to each to share is always the same— | God's Son is guiltless. Each one teaches the message differently and |
| 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 | of 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 | Yet 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 | be 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 | God 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 | instant 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 | will 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 only |
| 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 | with 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 | What 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 | them 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 first |
| 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:19.84 | for God. Yet the retreat to death is not the end of conflict. Only | God's Answer is its end. The obstacle of your seeming love for death |
| 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 | has 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 | be 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 | yet 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 Holy |
| 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, now |
| 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 itself. |
| 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 and |
| 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 himself |
| Tx:25.75 | yours. 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 | not 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 could |
| 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 join a |
| 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 friend |
| 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 | An 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 the |
| 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 not |
| 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 and |
| Tx:31.7 | which 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 |
| W1:35.9 | But my mind is part of | God's. I am very holy. |
| W1:36.1 | to the perceived. You are holy because your mind is part of | God's. And because you are holy, your sight must be holy as well. |
| W1:36.1 | sin a little. You are sinless or not. If your mind is part of | God's, you must be sinless or a part of His Mind would be sinful. |
| W1:42.6 | God's gifts to me must be mine because He gave them to me. | |
| W1:43.2 | no meaning. Yet does the Holy Spirit give it a meaning very close to | God's. Healed perception becomes the means by which the Son of God |
| W1:43.9 | The world can show me myself. I see my own thoughts, which are like | God's. |
| W1:49.1 | It is quite possible to listen to | God's Voice all through the day without interrupting your regular |
| 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 |
| W1:49.5 | closing your eyes on the world and realizing that you are inviting | God's Voice to speak to you. |
| W1:52.2 | them reality and thus regard reality as an illusion. Nothing in | God's creation is affected in any way by this confusion of mine. I am |
| 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 |
| W1:57.6 | [35] My mind is part of | God's. I am very holy. As I share the peace of the world with my |
| W1:60.2 | by which I will recognize my innocence. It is the reflection of | God's Love on earth. It will bring me near enough to Heaven that the |
| 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 |
| W1:61.1 | Who is the light of the world except | God's Son? This, then, is merely a statement of the truth about |
| 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 |
| W1:76.12 | idea until we have listened and understood there are no laws but | God's. Then we will tell ourselves as a dedication with which the |
| 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 | God's plan for salvation will save me from my perception of this. | |
| 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 of |
| 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 | not 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 |
| W1:101.8 | God's Will for me is perfect happiness. There is no sin; it has no | |
| W1:101.11 | God's Will for me is perfect happiness. This is the truth because | |
| 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 now. |
| 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. |
| W1:104.9 | I seek but what belongs to me in truth. | God's gifts of joy and peace are all I want. |
| 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 |
| W1:116.2 | [101] God's Will for me is perfect happiness. | God's Will is perfect happiness for me. And I can suffer but from the |
| W1:116.3 | [102] I share | God's Will for happiness for me. I share my Father's Will for me, His |
| W1:116.5 | God's Will for me is perfect happiness. | |
| 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 joy |
| 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. |
| W1:118.5 | God's peace and joy are mine. | |
| 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 |
| W1:204.1 | [184] The Name of God is my inheritance. | God's Name reminds me that I am His Son, not slave to time, unbound |
| W1:207.1 | [187] I bless the world because I bless myself. | God's blessing shines upon me from within my heart where He abides. I |
| W1:211.1 | the 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 am |
| 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:11.2 | death; your judgment sees but death as the inevitable end of life. | God's Word assures you that He loves the world; your judgment says it |
| M:11.4 | seem impossible. It is the world you see that is impossible. Yet has | God's Judgment on this distorted world redeemed it and made it fit to |
| 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:13.6 | they can trust. There is no other voice in all the world that echoes | God's. If you would sacrifice the truth, they stay in hell. And if |
| M:14.2 | indeed. He brings the ending of the world with Him. It is His Call | God's teachers answer, turning to Him in silence to receive His Word. |
| 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 |

| W1:133.1 | Sometimes in teaching there is benefit, particularly after you have | gone through what seems theoretical and far from what the student has |
| W1:140.3 | the mind. They lead from sleep to gentle waking, so that dreams are | gone. And thus they cure for all eternity. |
| W1:140.4 | the sickness possible. And that is cure indeed. For sickness now is | gone, with nothing left to which it can return. |
| W1:151.14 | deceived by what was falsely added. All the threads of fantasy are | gone, and what remains is unified into a perfect thought that offers |
| W1:153.12 | toys with joyous games which teach them that the game of fear is | gone. His game instructs in happiness because there is no loser. |
| W1:153.17 | to come, while thanking Him for all the gifts He gave us in the one | gone by. |
| W1:154.1 | Let us today be neither arrogant nor falsely humble. We have | gone beyond such foolishness. We cannot judge ourselves, nor need we |
| W1:155.10 | and you. And all illusions walking in the way you traveled will be | gone from you as well, with nothing left to keep the truth apart from |
| W1:156.6 | of sin in punishment and death. In lightness and in laughter is it | gone, because its quaint absurdity is seen. It is a foolish thought, |
| W1:156.7 | wasted many, many years on just this foolish thought. The past is | gone with all its fantasies. They keep you bound no longer. The |
| W1:158.4 | on it, imagining we make it once again; reviewing mentally what has | gone by. |

| W1:169.2 | world of seeming hate and fear. By grace alone the hate and fear are | gone, for grace presents a state so opposite to everything the world |
| W1:181.4 | lose your way again. How could this matter? For the past is | gone, the future but imagined. These concerns are but defenses |
| W1:183.3 | laying down illusions. Every dream the world holds dear has suddenly | gone by, and where it seemed to stand you find a star; a miracle of |
| W1:185.9 | just as certainly and to remain with you forever. It will not be | gone with every twist and turning of the road to reappear |
| W1:187.10 | Now are we one in thought, for fear has | gone. And here, before the altar to one God, one Father, one Creator |
| W1:191.4 | thought is everything set free. In this one truth are all illusions | gone. In this one fact is sinlessness proclaimed to be forever part |
| W1:192.4 | is overcome because it holds no fierce attraction now, and guilt is | gone. |
| W1:192.6 | can persuade the Son to look again upon his holiness. With anger | gone, you will indeed perceive that for Christ's vision and the gift |
| W1:193.4 | enters, and returns the hate to love, so that the fear is | gone. And now guilt cannot enter, for its source has been excluded as |
| W1:193.15 | we would arise in haste and go unto our Father's house. We have been | gone too long, and we would linger here no more. And as we practice, |
| W1:194.5 | Release the future. For the past is | gone, and what is present, freed from its bequest of grief and |
| W1:196.12 | go beyond it quickly, surely, and forever. When the fear of God is | gone, there are no obstacles that still remain between you and the |
| 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 both. For what God |
| W2:WS.4 | branches. Earth is being born again in new perception. Night has | gone, and we have come together in the light. |
| W2:234.1 | Today we will anticipate the time when dreams of sin and guilt are | gone and we have reached again the holy peace we never left. Merely a |
| W2:WIW.1 | world must disappear and all its errors vanish. Now its source has | gone, and its effects are gone as well. |
| W2:WIW.1 | all its errors vanish. Now its source has gone, and its effects are | gone as well. |
| W2:WIW.2 | hear falsely. Now mistakes become quite possible, for certainty has | gone. |
| W2:241.1 | release is set. The day has come when sorrows pass away and pain is | gone. The glory of salvation dawns today upon a world set free. This |
| W2:249.1 | over, loss becomes impossible, and anger makes no sense. Attack is | gone, and madness has an end. What suffering is now conceivable? What |
| W2:251.1 | all cravings end, all hopes are finally fulfilled, and dreams are | gone. Now have I everything that I could need. Now have I everything |
| W2:270.1 | function now is but Your own, and every thought except Your own is | gone. |
| W2:279.1 | a future freedom if it be at all. Yet in reality his dreams are | gone, with truth established in their place. And now is freedom his |
| W2:288.1 | are in the past along with mine. And I am saved because the past is | gone. Let me not cherish it within my heart or I will lose the way to |
| W2:289.1 | For what can be forgiven but the past, and if it is forgiven, it is | gone. |
| W2:293.1 | All fear is past because its source is | gone and all its thoughts gone with it. Love remains the only present |
| W2:293.1 | All fear is past because its source is gone and all its thoughts | gone with it. Love remains the only present state, whose Source is |
| W2:295.1 | removed from me, the dreams that seemed to settle on the world are | gone. Redemption must be one. As I am saved, the world is saved with |
| W2:300.1 | sorrow are the certain lot of all who come here. For their joys are | gone before they are possessed, or even grasped. Yet this is also the |
| W2:301.1 | And all the tears I shed will be forgotten, for their source is | gone. Father, I will not judge Your world today. |
| W2:313.1 | is a vision which beholds all things as sinless, so that fear has | gone and where it was is love invited in. And love will come wherever |
| W2:323.2 | returned to our awareness. And we are at peace again, for fear has | gone and only love remains. |
| W2:334.1 | which my Father offers me. Illusions must be vain and dreams are | gone, even while they are woven out of thoughts that rest on false |
| M:4.24 | before. And above all are all things welcoming, for threat is | gone. No clouds remain to hide the face of Christ. Now is the goal |
| M:5.7 | With this idea is pain forever | gone. But with this idea goes also all confusion about creation. Does |
| M:5.7 | disaster, and all suffering mean now? Having no purpose, they are | gone. And with them also go all the effects they seemed to cause. |
| M:10.5 | Yet it is not only this that is his benefit. His sense of care is | gone, for he has none. He has given it away, along with judgment. He |
| M:14.1 | ends the world that guilt had made, for now it has no purpose and is | gone. The father of illusions is the belief that they have a purpose; |
| M:14.1 | are no longer seen. Their uselessness is recognized, and they are | gone. How but in this way are all illusions ended? They have been |
| M:14.5 | a place of sorrow. When joy has come, the purpose of the world has | gone. The world will end in peace because it is a place of war. When |

| Tx:3.18 | The Resurrection demonstrated that nothing can destroy truth. | Good can withstand any form of evil because light abolishes all forms |
| Tx:3.21 | that this commandment (or assignment) also applies to themselves. | Good teachers never terrorize their students. To terrorize is to |
| Tx:4.7 | A | good teacher clarifies his own ideas and strengthens them by teaching |
| Tx:4.7 | and unless they share their lessons, they will lack conviction. A | good teacher must believe in the ideas which he professes, but he |
| Tx:4.11 | to me, I will correct [them] very gently and lead you home. Every | good teacher hopes to give his students so much of his own thinking |
| Tx:4.23 | That is why you should be of | good cheer. |
| Tx:4.26 | Your own present state is a | good example of how the mind made the ego. You do have knowledge at |
| Tx:4.34 | perceptions and are so ambiguous in form and so characteristically | good and evil in nature that the most benevolent of them is not |
| Tx:4.44 | That was written in that form because it is a | good thing to use as a kind of a prayer in moments of temptation. It |
| Tx:4.69 | All things work together for | good. There are no exceptions except in the ego's judgment. Control |
| Tx:4.71 | hates the body because it does not accept the idea that the body is | good enough to be its home. Here is where the mind becomes actually |
| Tx:4.77 | The problems of squaring the circle and carrying pi to infinity are | good examples. A more recent ego attempt is particularly noteworthy. |
| Tx:4.79 | Psychologists are in a | good position to realize that the ego is capable of making and |
| Tx:5.47 | The Atonement is the guarantee of the safety of the Kingdom. Nothing | good is lost because it comes from the Holy Spirit, the Voice for |
| Tx:5.47 | from the Holy Spirit, the Voice for creation. Nothing that is not | good was ever created and therefore cannot be protected. What the ego |
| Tx:5.83 | was afraid and, as you know all too well, fear is incompatible with | good judgment. Fear distorts thinking and therefore disorders thought. |
| Tx:6.15 | was true in a very extreme case merely because it would serve as a | good teaching aid to those whose temptations to give in to anger and |

| Tx:6.57 | Like any | good teacher, the Holy Spirit does know more than you do now, but He |
| Tx:6.71 | But if a lie is at its center, only deception proceeds from it. All | good teachers realize that only fundamental change will last, but |
| Tx:7.15 | translated for those who speak a different language. Nevertheless, a | good translator, although he must alter the form of what he |
| Tx:9.1 | it makes no sense at all. To the ego, it is kind and right and | good to point out errors and “correct” them. This makes perfect sense |
| Tx:9.8 | this, and for this all learning was made. This is the Holy Spirit's | good use of an ability which you do not need, but which you have |
| Tx:9.29 | the laws of this world, but that the laws you are obeying work. “The | good is what works” is a sound, though insufficient, statement. Only |
| Tx:9.29 | is what works” is a sound, though insufficient, statement. Only the | good can work. Nothing else works at all. This course is a guide to |
| Tx:9.56 | witnesses to it? And what can be real that has no witnesses? What | good can come of it? And if no good can come of it, the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:9.56 | be real that has no witnesses? What good can come of it? And if no | good can come of it, the Holy Spirit cannot use it. What He cannot |
| Tx:9.88 | cannot be understood together. The laws of God work only for your | good, and there are no other laws beside His. Everything else is |
| Tx:10.70 | is a willingness to perceive nothing else. For if you perceive both | good and evil, you are accepting both the false and the true and |
| Tx:10.71 | The ego sees some | good but never only good. That is why its perceptions are so |
| Tx:10.71 | The ego sees some good but never only | good. That is why its perceptions are so variable. It does not reject |
| Tx:10.75 | And then everything you made will be forgotten, the | good and the bad, the false and the true. For as Heaven and earth |
| Tx:11.5 | It is surely | good advice to tell you not to judge what you do not understand. No |
| Tx:11.5 | brother's errors are “uncovered” and he is then attacked for his own | good. What can this be but projection? For his errors lay in the |
| Tx:11.47 | a special Teacher and a special curriculum. Poor learners are not | good choices for teachers, either for themselves or for anyone else. |
| Tx:11.89 | Long ago we said that the Holy Spirit shares the goal of all | good teachers, whose ultimate aim is to make themselves unnecessary |
| Tx:13.74 | All this arises because they do not believe that what they want is | good. Yet will was given them because it is holy and will bring to |
| Tx:13.81 | yourself the sole responsibility for deciding what can bring only | good to everyone? Would you know this? |
| Tx:14.29 | Defenses, like everything you made, must be gently turned to your own | good, translated by the Holy Spirit from means of self-destruction to |
| Tx:15.72 | or farther. And it is in these terms that it evaluates ideas as | good or bad. What makes another guilty and holds him through guilt is |
| Tx:17.53 | grateful to each other? Have you consistently appreciated the | good efforts and overlooked mistakes? Or has your appreciation |
| Tx:18.33 | Trust not your | good intentions. They are not enough. But trust implicitly your |
| Tx:19.31 | God must be at war with Himself. He must be split and torn between | good and evil—partly sane and partially insane. For He must have |
| Tx:21.39 | purpose to lead you from. You think He would deprive you for your | good. But “good” and “deprivation” are opposites and cannot |
| Tx:26.15 | cannot solve. But you believe that some injustices are fair and | good and necessary to preserve yourself. It is these problems that |
| Tx:26.44 | Anything in this world that you believe is | good and valuable and worth striving for can hurt you and will do so. |
| Tx:26.73 | although already there? You have been told that everything brings | good that comes from God. And yet it seems as if this is not so. Good |
| Tx:26.73 | good that comes from God. And yet it seems as if this is not so. | Good in disaster's form is difficult to credit in advance. Nor is |
| Tx:26.74 | Why should the | good appear in evil's form? And is it not deception if it does? Its |
| Tx:26.74 | the time of liberation is at hand. Given a change of purpose for the | good, there is no reason for an interval in which disaster strikes, |
| Tx:27.10 | without a purpose, it is seen as neither sick nor well, nor bad nor | good. No grounds are offered that it may be judged in any way at all. |
| Tx:27.14 | is not pity which but seeks to pardon what it knows to be the truth. | Good cannot be returned for evil, for forgiveness does not first |
| Tx:27.78 | metal discs or paper strips the world proclaims as valuable and | good. It works to get them, doing senseless things, and tosses them |
| Tx:28.47 | A gap perceived between [ourselves] and what is seen as health? The | good is seen outside; the evil, in. And thus is sickness separating |
| Tx:28.47 | the evil, in. And thus is sickness separating off the self from | good and keeping evil in. God is the alternate to dreams of fear. Who |

| Tx:31.44 | on the suffering and sometimes offers solace. It believes that it is | good within an evil world. |

| Tx:12.54 | awareness. Love always leads to love. The sick who ask for love are | grateful for it, and in their joy, they shine with holy thanks. And |
| Tx:17.53 | Him. Nor does He see the mistakes at all. Have you been similarly | grateful to each other? Have you consistently appreciated the good |

| W1:195.10 | in hand with love, and where one is, the other must be found. For | gratitude is but an aspect of the love which is the Source of all |

| W1:198.5 | to thank the One Who gives salvation, and accept His gift with | gratitude? And is it not a kindness to yourself to hear His Voice and |
| W1:215.1 | [195] Love is the way I walk in | gratitude. The Holy Spirit is my only Guide. He walks with me in |
| W1:217.1 | [197] It can be but my | gratitude I earn. Who should give thanks for my salvation but myself? |
| W2:I.6 | to you we cannot fail. Father, we give these holy times to You in | gratitude to Him Who taught us how to leave the world of sorrow in |
| W2:293.2 | escape my sight today. Nor let my ears be deaf to all the hymns of | gratitude the world is singing underneath the sounds of fear. There |
| W2:298.1 | My | gratitude permits my love to be accepted without fear. And thus am I |
| W2:306.2 | we never went away, remembering Your holy gifts to us. In | gratitude and thankfulness, we come, with empty hands and open hearts |
| W2:315.1 | upon another, and my heart is gladdened. Someone speaks a word of | gratitude or mercy, and my mind perceives this gift and takes it as |
| W2:315.2 | in all their gifts to me. Now may I offer them my thankfulness that | gratitude to them may lead me on to my Creator and His memory. |

| W1:72.14 | salvation without waiting to hear what it is. We have shouted our | grievances so loudly that we have not listened to His Voice. We have |
| W1:72.14 | so loudly that we have not listened to His Voice. We have used our | grievances to close our eyes and stop our ears. Now we would see and |
| W1:72.19 | Holding | grievances is an attack on God's plan for salvation. Let me accept it |
| W1:73.2 | Idle wishes and | grievances are partners or co-makers in picturing the world you see. |
| W1:73.2 | see. The wishes of the ego gave rise to it, and the ego's need for | grievances, which are necessary to maintain it, peoples it with |
| W1:73.2 | judgment. They become the middlemen the ego employs to traffic in | grievances and stand between your awareness and your brothers' |
| W1:73.3 | this strange bartering, in which guilt is traded back and forth and | grievances increase with each exchange. Can such a world have been |
| W1:73.5 | The source of neither light nor darkness can be found without. | Grievances darken your mind, and you look out on a darkened world. |
| W1:73.6 | We have repeatedly emphasized that the barrier of | grievances is easily passed and cannot stand between you and your |
| W1:73.17 | tempted to hold a grievance of any kind. This will help you let your | grievances go instead of cherishing them and hiding them in the |
| W1:77.11 | I will not trade miracles for | grievances. I want only what belongs to me. God has established |
| W1:78.1 | Yet all the while it waits for you in light, but you behold your | grievances instead. |
| W1:78.2 | Today we go beyond the | grievances to look upon the miracle instead. We will reverse the way |
| W1:78.3 | He waits for you behind your | grievances, and as you lay them down, he will appear in shining light |
| W1:78.4 | We will not let ourselves be blind to him; we will not look upon our | grievances. So is the seeing of the world reversed, as we look out |
| W1:78.5 | We will select one person you have used as target for your | grievances and lay the grievances aside and look at him. Someone |
| W1:78.5 | one person you have used as target for your grievances and lay the | grievances aside and look at him. Someone perhaps you fear and even |
| W1:78.6 | whom we ask God's Son be shown to us. Through seeing him behind the | grievances that we have held against him, you will learn that what |
| W1:78.10 | who grieved you, let your mind be shown the light in him beyond your | grievances. What you have asked for cannot be denied. Your savior has |
| W1:78.11 | Be very quiet now and look upon your shining savior. No dark | grievances obscure the sight of him. You have allowed the Holy Spirit |
| W1:78.12 | each one we meet to save us and refuse to hide his light behind our | grievances. To everyone you meet and to the ones you think of or |
| W1:78.13 | Let miracles replace all | grievances. |
| W1:80.8 | Let us be determined not to collect | grievances today. Let us be determined to be free of problems that do |
| W1:84.5 | [68] Love holds no | grievances. Grievances are completely alien to love. Grievances |
| W1:84.5 | [68] Love holds no grievances. | Grievances are completely alien to love. Grievances attack love and |
| W1:84.5 | Love holds no grievances. Grievances are completely alien to love. | Grievances attack love and keep its light obscure. If I hold |
| W1:84.5 | love. Grievances attack love and keep its light obscure. If I hold | grievances I am attacking love and therefore attacking my Self. My |
| W1:85.2 | [69] My | grievances hide the light of the world in me. My grievances show me |
| W1:85.2 | [69] My grievances hide the light of the world in me. My | grievances show me what is not there and hide from me what I would |
| W1:85.2 | hide from me what I would see. Recognizing this, what do I want my | grievances for? They keep me in darkness and hide the light. |
| W1:85.2 | want my grievances for? They keep me in darkness and hide the light. | Grievances and light cannot go together, but light and vision must be |
| W1:85.2 | light and vision must be joined for me to see. To see, I must lay | grievances aside. I want to see, and this will be the means by which |
| W1:86.5 | [72] Holding | grievances is an attack on God's plan for salvation. Holding |
| W1:86.5 | Holding grievances is an attack on God's plan for salvation. Holding | grievances is an attempt to prove that God's plan for salvation will |
| W1:86.5 | for salvation will not work. Yet only His plan will work. By holding | grievances, I am therefore excluding my only hope of salvation from |
| W1:86.7 | misperception and salvation as I look on this. If I see grounds for | grievances in this, I will not see the grounds for my salvation. This |
| W1:88.2 | is already here. Salvation is a decision made already. Attack and | grievances are not there to choose. That is why I always choose |
| W1:89.2 | because I am under no laws but God's. His laws release me from all | grievances and replace them with miracles. And I would accept the |
| W1:89.2 | them with miracles. And I would accept the miracles in place of the | grievances, which are but illusions that hide the miracles beyond. |
| W1:89.5 | [78] Let miracles replace all | grievances. By this idea do I unite my will with the Holy Spirit's |
| W1:89.7 | I would not hold this grievance apart from my salvation. Let our | grievances be replaced by miracles, [name]. Beyond this is the |
| W1:89.7 | by miracles, [name]. Beyond this is the miracle by which all my | grievances are replaced. |

| Tx:22.22 | entirely or not at all. Reason will tell you that there is no middle | ground where you can pause uncertainly, waiting to choose between the |
| Tx:23.31 | you both. You who believe you walk in sanity, with feet on solid | ground and through a world where meaning can be found, consider this: |

| Tx:25.81 | impossible and justice sure. The Holy Spirit's perception leaves no | ground for an attack. Only a loss could justify attack, and loss of |
| Tx:26.27 | His Father as He really is? Who could fear love and stand upon the | ground where sin has left a place for Heaven's altar to rise and |
| Tx:26.43 | the past and let it go, for it is gone. You stand no longer on the | ground that lies between the worlds. You have gone on and reached the |

| Tx:28.49 | or an illusion. What can be between illusion and the truth? A middle | ground where you can be a thing that is not you must be a dream and |
| Tx:28.61 | could correct for separation but its opposite? There is no middle | ground in any aspect of salvation. You accept it wholly or accept it |

| W1:163.5 | while its worshipers agree, and kneeling down with foreheads to the | ground, they whisper fearfully that it is so. |
| W1:182.4 | that will endure forever. Where this Child shall go is holy | ground. It is His holiness that lights up Heaven and that brings to |
| W1:183.2 | to remember. Say His Name, and you invite the angels to surround the | ground on which you stand and sing to you as they spread out their |

groundless (1) | ||
| Tx:3.11 | fear which may still be associated with miracles becomes entirely | groundless. The crucifixion did not establish the Atonement. The |
grounds (26) | ||
| Tx:6.27 | separated from them. The ego justifies this on the wholly spurious | grounds that it makes you seem “better” than they are, thus obscuring |
| Tx:8.1 | object to following instructions in a course for knowing on the | grounds that you do not know. The need for the course is implicit in |
| Tx:8.9 | ego has never given you a sensible answer to anything. Simply on the | grounds of your own experience with the ego's teaching, should not |

| Tx:25.82 | no loser, no one left unfairly treated and deprived, and thus with | grounds for vengeance. Problem solving cannot be vengeance, which at |
| Tx:26.52 | some errors seem forever past the hope of healing and the lasting | grounds for hell. If this were so, would Heaven be opposed by its own |
| Tx:27.10 | a purpose, it is seen as neither sick nor well, nor bad nor good. No | grounds are offered that it may be judged in any way at all. It has |
| Tx:27.13 | that the frail can have no trust and that the damaged have no | grounds for peace. Who has been injured by his brother and could love |
| Tx:27.21 | their own serenity. Their helplessness and weakness represent the | grounds on which they justify his pain. The constant sting of guilt |
| Tx:27.82 | this if we but look directly at their cause. And we will see the | grounds for laughter, not a cause for fear. Let us return the dream |
| Tx:28.32 | which seemed to keep them separate for a little while? Where are the | grounds for sickness when the minds have joined to close the little |
| Tx:30.30 | be understood, and you can see there cannot be coercion here nor | grounds for opposition that you may be free. There is no freedom from |
| W1:21.3 | to dwell more on some situations than on others on the fallacious | grounds that they are more “obvious.” This is not so. It is merely an |
| W1:53.4 | engenders fear because it is completely undependable and offers no | grounds for trust. Nothing in madness is dependable. It holds out no |

| W1:126.5 | If this be true, forgiveness has no | grounds on which to rest dependably and sure. It is an eccentricity |
| W1:186.3 | this? Today we will not shrink from our assignment on the specious | grounds that modesty is outraged. It is pride that would deny the |

| Tx:17.11 | that there is no reason here at all. Each spot His reason touches | grows alive with beauty, and what seemed ugly in the darkness of your |

| Tx:4.102 | to wherever you can be truly helpful and to whoever can follow my | guidance through you. |
| Tx:5.21 | breaks through into its own. Before the separation you did not need | guidance. You knew as you will know again, but as you do not know |

| Tx:5.53 | against yourself. Teaching is done in many ways: by formal means, by | guidance, and above all by example. Teaching is therapy, because it |
| Tx:6.45 | will be glad when He has brought you home and you no longer need His | guidance. The ego does not regard itself as part of you. Herein lies |

| Tx:13.78 | not fail to learn what God wills for you is your will. Without His | guidance, you will think you know alone and will decide against your |

| W2:WF.5 | and let forgiveness show you what to do through Him Who is your | Guide, your Savior and Defender, strong in hope, and certain of your |
| W2:233.1 | I come to You. I will step back and merely follow You. Be You the | Guide and I the follower who questions not the wisdom of the Infinite |
| W2:233.2 | Today we have one | Guide to lead us on. And as we walk together, we will give this day |
| W2:269.1 | beyond them. It is given me to find a new perception through the | Guide You gave to me and through His lessons to surpass perception |
| W2:314.2 | past mistakes and sure that You will keep Your present promises and | guide the future in their holy light. |
| W2:321.1 | searched in vain until I heard Your Voice directing me. Now I would | guide myself no more. For I have neither made nor understood the way |
| W2:324.1 | and then return. Your loving Voice will always call me back and | guide my feet aright. My brothers all can follow in the way I lead |
| W2:E.4 | I place you in His hands, to be His faithful followers, with Him as | Guide through every difficulty and all pain that you may think is |

| M:10.5 | now to trust instead of his own. Now he makes no mistakes. His | Guide is sure. And where he came to judge, he comes to bless. Where |
| M:16.7 | longer interests him. For he is safe and knows it to be so. He has a | Guide Who will not fail. He need make no distinctions among the |

| Tx:11.42 | only the recognition that you have been redeemed. The Holy Spirit | guides you into life eternal, but you must relinquish your investment |
| Tx:12.54 | thanks. And this they offer you, who gave them joy. They are your | guides to joy, for having received it of you, they would keep it. You |
| Tx:12.54 | received it of you, they would keep it. You have established them as | guides to peace, for you have made it manifest in them. And seeing |
| Tx:26.33 | you live in time and know not it is gone, the Holy Spirit still | guides you through the infinitely small and senseless maze you still |

| W1:151.4 | merely can believe the ego's judgments, all of which are false. It | guides your senses carefully, to prove how weak you are, how helpless |
| W2:I.1 | Words will mean little now. We use them but as | guides on which we do not now depend. For now we seek direct |
| W2:WIHS.2 | the only goal it has in truth. For learning, as the Holy Spirit | guides it to the outcome He perceives for it, becomes the means to go |

| Tx:6.22 | to allow any fear to enter into the thought system toward which I am | guiding you. I do not call for martyrs but for teachers. No one is |
| Tx:11.40 | He will teach you yours, for your mission is the same as His. By | guiding your brothers home, you are but following Him. |
| Tx:13.77 | you follow can teach you what it is. Only His wisdom is capable of | guiding you to follow it. Every decision you undertake alone but |
| Tx:20.13 | lead you there? His innocence will light your way, offering you its | guiding light and sure protection, and shining from the holy altar |
| Tx:21.56 | be adjusted to fit its end. Faith and belief are strong in madness, | guiding perception toward what the mind has valued. But reason enters |
| Tx:27.77 | and enemies. Its safety is its main concern. Its comfort is its | guiding rule. It tries to look for pleasure and avoid the things that |

| Tx:25.69 | as if He were 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 |
| M:25.5 | enough to rally under this new temptation to win back strength by | guile. Many have not seen through the ego's defenses here, although |
guilt (458) | ||
| Tx:1.104 | impulses (or misdirected miracle impulses) result in conscious | guilt if expressed and depression if denied. All real pleasure comes |
| Tx:2.43 | there is a period of real disorientation accompanied by fear, | guilt, and usually vacillations between anxiety and depression. This |
| Tx:2.91 | thought. This is the usual psychoanalytic approach. It does allay | guilt but at the cost of rendering thinking impotent. If you believe |
| Tx:4.61 | guilty, your ego is in command because only the ego can experience | guilt. This need not be. |
| Tx:5.45 | their own perfect radiance. They are beyond destruction and beyond | guilt. They came from the Holy Spirit within you, and we know what |
| Tx:5.48 | patients that the real difference between neurotic and “healthy” | guilt feelings is that neurotic guilt feelings do not help anyone. |
| Tx:5.48 | between neurotic and “healthy” guilt feelings is that neurotic | guilt feelings do not help anyone. This distinction is wise though |
| Tx:5.48 | Let us make the distinction a little sharper now. Neurotic | guilt feelings are a device of the ego for “atoning” without sharing |
| Tx:5.49 | Your concept of “healthy | guilt feelings” has merit, but without the concept of the Atonement, |
| Tx:5.59 | become clearer and more personally meaningful if the ego's use of | guilt is clarified. The ego has a purpose, just as the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:5.59 | again, let us remember that both are in you. In Heaven there is no | guilt, because the Kingdom is attained through the Atonement, which |
| Tx:5.60 | What is truly blessed is incapable of giving rise to | guilt and must give rise to joy. This makes it invulnerable to the |
| Tx:5.60 | unassailable. It is invulnerable to disruption because it is whole. | Guilt is always disruptive. Anything that engenders fear is divisive |
| Tx:5.60 | If the ego is the symbol of the separation, it is also the symbol of | guilt. Guilt is more than merely not of God. It is the symbol of the |
| Tx:5.60 | ego is the symbol of the separation, it is also the symbol of guilt. | Guilt is more than merely not of God. It is the symbol of the attack |
| Tx:5.60 | power of the ego's belief in it. This is the belief from which all | guilt really stems. |
| Tx:5.61 | as guilty. Whenever you respond to your ego, you will experience | guilt and you will fear punishment. The ego is quite literally a |
| Tx:5.62 | of retaliation from without then follows because the severity of the | guilt is so acute that it must be projected. Although Freud was wrong |
| Tx:5.63 | God. To think with Him is to think like Him. This engenders joy, not | guilt, because it is natural. Guilt is a sure sign that your thinking |
| Tx:5.63 | like Him. This engenders joy, not guilt, because it is natural. | Guilt is a sure sign that your thinking is unnatural. Perverted |
| Tx:5.63 | is unnatural. Perverted thinking will always be attended with | guilt because it is the belief in sin. |
| Tx:5.68 | Himself orders your thought because your thought was created by Him. | Guilt feelings are always a sign that you do not know this. They also |
| Tx:5.68 | apart from God and want to. Every thought disorder is attended by | guilt at its inception and maintained by guilt in its continuance. |
| Tx:5.68 | disorder is attended by guilt at its inception and maintained by | guilt in its continuance. Guilt is inescapable for those who believe |
| Tx:5.68 | guilt at its inception and maintained by guilt in its continuance. | Guilt is inescapable for those who believe they order their own |
| Tx:5.70 | will to remain separated is the only possible reason for continuing | guilt feelings. We have said this before, but we did not emphasize |
| Tx:5.72 | Guilt feelings are the preservers of time. They induce fears of | |
| Tx:5.72 | you choose to make this exchange, you will simultaneously exchange | guilt for joy, viciousness for love, and pain for peace. My role is |
| Tx:5.79 | There can be no case against a Child of God, and every witness to | guilt in God's creations is bearing false witness to God Himself. |
| Tx:5.94 | be undone by repentance in the usual sense because this implies | guilt. If you allow yourself to feel guilty, you will reinforce the |
| Tx:6.19 | the crucifixion entirely without anger, because their own sense of | guilt had made them angry. |
| Tx:8.98 | has not left him. The martyr, on the other hand, is more aware of | guilt and, believing that punishment is inevitable, attempts to teach |
| Tx:11.75 | you have been treacherous to your Father. That is why the undoing of | guilt is an essential part of the Holy Spirit's teaching. For as long |
| Tx:11.85 | not an attempt to relinquish denial but to hold on to it. For it is | guilt that has obscured the Father to you, and it is guilt that has |
| Tx:11.85 | it. For it is guilt that has obscured the Father to you, and it is | guilt that has driven you insane. |
| Tx:11.86 | The acceptance of | guilt into the Mind of God's Son was the beginning of the separation, |
| Tx:11.86 | end. The world you see is the delusional system of those made mad by | guilt. Look carefully at this world, and you will realize that this |
| Tx:11.87 | and this is the ego's interpretation, not God's. Only the world of | guilt could demand this, for only the guilty could conceive of it. |
| Tx:11.89 | for sharing the Father's love for His Son, He wills to remove all | guilt from his mind that he may remember his Father in peace. For |
| Tx:11.89 | his mind that he may remember his Father in peace. For peace and | guilt are antithetical, and the Father can be remembered only in |
| Tx:11.89 | and the Father can be remembered only in peace. Love and | guilt cannot coexist, and to accept one is to deny the other. Guilt |
| Tx:11.89 | and guilt cannot coexist, and to accept one is to deny the other. | Guilt hides Christ from your sight, for it is the denial of the |
| Tx:11.90 | him invisible, the world of retribution rose in the black cloud of | guilt which you accepted, and you hold it dear. For the blamelessness |
| Tx:11.90 | Christ is the proof that the ego never was and can never be. Without | guilt the ego has no life, and God's Son is without guilt. As you |
| Tx:11.90 | be. Without guilt the ego has no life, and God's Son is without | guilt. As you look upon yourselves and judge what you do honestly, as |
| Tx:11.94 | the Atonement for yourselves, you will realize that there is no | guilt in God's Son. And only as you look upon him as guiltless can |
| Tx:11.94 | him as guiltless can you understand his oneness. For the idea of | guilt brings a belief in condemnation of one by another, projecting |
| Tx:11.95 | always been. Let the holiness of God's Son shine away the cloud of | guilt that darkens your mind, and by accepting his purity as yours, |
| Tx:11.96 | because you are guiltless. You can hold on to the past only through | guilt. For guilt establishes that you will be punished for what you |
| Tx:11.96 | are guiltless. You can hold on to the past only through guilt. For | guilt establishes that you will be punished for what you have done |
| Tx:11.96 | who believes this can understand what always means. And therefore | guilt must deprive you of the appreciation of eternity. You are |
| Tx:11.96 | You are immortal because you are eternal and always must be now. | Guilt, then, is a way of holding past and future in your minds to |
| Tx:11.97 | The future, in time, is always associated with expiation, and only | guilt could induce a sense of need for expiation. Accepting the |
| Tx:11.98 | You cannot dispel | guilt by making it real and then atoning for it. This is the ego's |
| Tx:11.98 | to the insane notion that attack is salvation. And you who cherish | guilt must also believe it, for how else but by identifying with the |
| Tx:11.99 | attack yourself because you are guilty, and this must increase the | guilt, for guilt is the result of attack. In the ego's teaching, |
| Tx:11.99 | because you are guilty, and this must increase the guilt, for | guilt is the result of attack. In the ego's teaching, then, there is |
| Tx:11.99 | of attack. In the ego's teaching, then, there is no escape from | guilt. For attack makes guilt real, and if it is real, there is no |
| Tx:11.99 | teaching, then, there is no escape from guilt. For attack makes | guilt real, and if it is real, there is no way to overcome it. The |
| Tx:11.99 | And being true for you, you cannot attack yourself, for without | guilt, attack is impossible. You, then, are saved because God's Son |
| Tx:12.1 | purpose of projection, as the ego uses it, is always to get rid of | guilt. Yet, characteristically, the ego attempts to get rid of guilt |
| Tx:12.1 | of guilt. Yet, characteristically, the ego attempts to get rid of | guilt from its viewpoint only, for much as the ego wants to retain |
| Tx:12.1 | guilt from its viewpoint only, for much as the ego wants to retain | guilt, you find it intolerable, since guilt stands in the way of your |
| Tx:12.1 | as the ego wants to retain guilt, you find it intolerable, since | guilt stands in the way of your remembering God, Whose pull is so |
| Tx:12.1 | then, the deepest split of all occurs, for if you are to retain | guilt as the ego insists, you cannot be you. Only by persuading you |
| Tx:12.1 | you that it is you, could the ego possibly induce you to project | guilt and thereby keep it in your mind. |
| Tx:12.2 | how strange a solution the ego's arrangement is. You project | guilt to get rid of it, but you are actually merely concealing it. |
| Tx:12.2 | of it, but you are actually merely concealing it. You do experience | guilt feelings, but you have no idea why. On the contrary, you |
| Tx:12.3 | The darkest of your hidden cornerstones holds your belief in | guilt from your awareness. For in that dark and secret place is the |
| Tx:12.4 | ego's strange behavior is directly attributable to its definition of | guilt. To the ego, the guiltless are guilty. Those who do not attack |
| Tx:12.5 | who you are and identifying with something else. You have projected | guilt blindly and indiscriminately, but you have not uncovered its |
| Tx:12.6 | the ego is god, and guiltlessness must be interpreted as the final | guilt which fully justifies murder. You do not yet understand that |
| Tx:12.8 | The Atonement has always been interpreted as the release from | guilt, and this is correct if it is understood. Yet even when I have |
| Tx:12.26 | that is meaningful. You will remember that we said its emphasis on | guilt enables it to ensure its continuity by making the future like |
| Tx:12.47 | lies your release. For if He is as He was created, there is no | guilt in Him. No cloud of guilt has risen to obscure Him, and He |
| Tx:12.47 | if He is as He was created, there is no guilt in Him. No cloud of | guilt has risen to obscure Him, and He stands revealed in everyone |
| Tx:13.11 | Guilt remains the only thing that hides the Father, for guilt is the | |
| Tx:13.11 | Guilt remains the only thing that hides the Father, for | guilt is the attack upon His Son. The guilty always condemn, and |
| Tx:13.12 | Release from | guilt is the ego's whole undoing. Make no one fearful, for his guilt |
| Tx:13.12 | from guilt is the ego's whole undoing. Make no one fearful, for his | guilt is yours, and by obeying the ego's harsh commandments, you |
| Tx:13.14 | distinction. Therefore, you cannot value one without the other, and | guilt has become as true for you as innocence. You do not believe the |
| Tx:13.14 | have freed him from the past and lifted from his mind the cloud of | guilt that binds him to it. And in his freedom would have been your |
| Tx:13.15 | Lay not his | guilt upon him, for his guilt lies in his secret that he thinks that |
| 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 | of 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 it is |
| Tx:13.16 | you, 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. Project |
| 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 look |
| 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 | there is no difference, for He knows not of differences. Can you see | guilt where God knows there is perfect innocence? You can deny His |
| Tx:13.20 | doubtful 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 | Spirit, 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 inevitable |
| 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 will |
| 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:13.25 | and has no reason. The Holy Spirit seeks not to dispel reality. If | guilt were real, Atonement would not be. The purpose of Atonement is |
| 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 would |
| 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, you |
| Tx:13.28 | not 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 place |
| Tx:13.29 | Release from | guilt as you would be released. There is no other way to look within |
| Tx:13.29 | and 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 love |
| 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 that |
| 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 believe |
| Tx:13.65 | and 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 value of |
| 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 exist. |
| 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 gladly |
| Tx:13.73 | invulnerable. 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 | not 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 | saved 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 | Spirit 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 | to 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 | made 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 one |
| Tx:14.19 | one 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 to |
| 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:15.46 | How, 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:15.68 | 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 | it 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 | guilty 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:15.77 | 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. And |
| Tx:15.77 | holds no attraction, since communication has been restored. And | guilt, whose only purpose is to disrupt communication, has no |

| 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 anything |
| 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 | separately. 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 | you would accept but this one idea, your fear of love would vanish. | Guilt cannot last when the idea of sacrifice has been removed. For if |
| 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 fearful, |
| 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: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 to |
| 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 | would 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 | but believe it is the other way; that truth is outside and error and | guilt within. Your little senseless substitutions, touched with |
| Tx:18.17 | that 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:18.42 | from your mind. That is its function. Never attempt to overlook your | guilt before you ask the Holy Spirit's help. That is His function. |
| 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:18.88 | the fury, vengeance, and betrayal that were made to keep the | guilt in place, so that the world could rise from it and keep it |
| Tx:18.89 | messenger and will act as it directs as long as you believe that | guilt is real. For the reality of guilt is the illusion which seems |
| Tx:18.89 | as long as you believe that guilt is real. For the reality of | guilt is the illusion which seems to make it heavy and opaque, |
| Tx:18.92 | So should it be with the dark clouds of | guilt, no more impenetrable and no more substantial. You will not |
| Tx:18.93 | world of light, this circle of brightness, is the real world where | guilt meets with forgiveness. Here the world outside is seen anew, |
| 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:19.12 | of faith, the Son of God is seen already forgiven, free of all the | guilt he laid upon himself. Faith sees him only now because it looks |
| 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, granting |
| 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:19.49 | of guilt produces fear of love, for love would never look on | guilt at all. It is the nature of love to look upon only the truth, |
| Tx:19.49 | past fear, so must fear see love not. For love contains the end of | guilt as surely as fear depends on it. [Love is attracted only to |
| Tx:19.49 | as fear depends on it. [Love is attracted only to love.] Overlooking | guilt completely, it sees no fear. Being wholly without attack, it |
| Tx:19.49 | that what the other looks upon does not exist. Fear looks on | guilt with just the same devotion that love looks on itself. And each |
| Tx:19.50 | gentleness. The messengers of fear are harshly ordered to seek out | guilt and cherish every scrap of evil and of sin which they can find, |
| Tx:19.51 | The fierce attraction which | guilt holds for fear is wholly absent from love's gentle perception. |
| Tx:19.51 | its friends. Its messengers steal guiltily away in hungry search of | guilt, for they are kept cold and starving and made very vicious by |
| 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:19.58 | for it. Communion is another kind of completion which goes beyond | guilt because it goes beyond the body. |
| Tx:19.59 | obstacle of your desire to get rid of it. Where the attraction of | guilt holds sway, peace is not wanted. The second obstacle that peace |
| 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 | barriers together when you have joined the limitless? The end of | guilt is in your hands to give. Would you stop now to look for guilt |
| 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 you, |
| 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:19.71 | it invites fear to enter and become your purpose. The attraction of | guilt must enter with it, and whatever fear directs the body to do is |
| 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:19.74 | sent away from you in the belief that for your message of attack and | guilt will someone other than yourself suffer. And even if you |
| Tx:19.75 | rule. Not one but must believe that yielding to the attraction of | guilt is the escape from pain. Not one but must regard the body as |
| Tx:19.77 | death. What seems to be the fear of death is really its attraction. | Guilt, too, is feared and fearful. Yet it could have no hold at all |
| Tx:19.80 | From the ego came sin and | guilt and death, in opposition to life and innocence and to the Will |
| Tx:19.81 | honoring the Will of his Creator. The arrogance of sin, the pride of | guilt, the sepulcher of separation—all are part of your |
| Tx:19.81 | are part of your unrecognized dedication to death. The glitter of | guilt you laid upon the body would kill it. For what the ego loves, |
| Tx:19.95 | to your “friends.” The “loveliness” of sin, the delicate appeal of | guilt, the “holy” waxen image of death, and the fear of vengeance of |
| Tx:19.104 | Forgive the sins your brother thinks he has committed and all the | guilt you think you see in him. |
| Tx:19.105 | of holiness for you. Join him in gladness and remove all trace of | guilt from his disturbed and tortured mind. Help him to lift the |
| Tx:19.109 | the gift itself appear to be. As he is seen as either the giver of | guilt or of salvation, so will his offering be seen and so received. |
| Tx:20.14 | that is within him. Now are the lilies of his innocence untouched by | guilt and perfectly protected from the cold chill of fear and |
| Tx:21.29 | often of the other. Thus in the “fairness” you attempt to ease the | guilt that comes from the accepted purpose of the relationship. And |
| Tx:22.8 | your fear of sin protect it from correction, for the attraction of | guilt is only fear. Here is the one emotion that you made, whatever |
| Tx:22.18 | Illusions carry only | guilt and suffering, sickness and death to their believers. The form |
| Tx:22.20 | The ego will assure you now that it is impossible for you to see no | guilt in anyone. And if this vision is the only means by which escape |
| Tx:22.20 | in anyone. And if this vision is the only means by which escape from | guilt can be attained, then the belief in sin must be eternal. Yet |
| Tx:22.20 | the idea is like its source. Therefore, says reason, if escape from | guilt was given to the Holy Spirit as His purpose, and by One to Whom |
| Tx:23.4 | interferers pull you to littleness. There can be no attraction of | guilt in innocence. Think what a happy world you walk with truth |
| Tx:23.29 | think to look. He hid it in his body, making it the cover for his | guilt, the hiding place for what belongs to you. Now must his body be |
| Tx:23.41 | is murder, and what form of murder serves to cover the massive | guilt and frantic fear of punishment the murderer must feel? He may |
| Tx:23.41 | and pursue him still. For no one thinks of murder and escapes the | guilt the thought entails. If the intent is death, what matter the |
| Tx:23.46 | to die. Think you the form that murder takes can offer safety? Can | guilt be absent from a battlefield? [Do not remain in conflict, for |
| Tx:23.52 | recognize, the signs you know. There is a stab of pain, a twinge of | guilt, and above all, a loss of peace. This you know well. When it |
| Tx:24.2 | outcome of belief and follows it as surely as does suffering follow | guilt and freedom sinlessness. There is no substitute for peace. What |
| Tx:24.26 | it wholly the instant that he gave it so. And thus his secret | guilt would disappear, forgiven by himself. |
| Tx:25.13 | see? In no respect at any time or place has anything but fear and | guilt been your reward. How long is needed for you to realize the |
| Tx:25.23 | To the extent to which you value | guilt, to that extent will you perceive a world in which attack is |
| Tx:25.23 | which attack is justified. To the extent to which you recognize that | guilt is meaningless, to that extent will you perceive attack cannot |
| Tx:25.32 | Minds that are joined and recognize they are can feel no | guilt. For they cannot attack, and they rejoice that this is so, |
| Tx:25.34 | And all their “evil” thoughts and “sinful” hopes, their dreams of | guilt and merciless revenge, and every wish to hurt and kill and die |
| Tx:25.37 | reason to perceive the Son of God as other than he is. The need for | guilt is gone because it has no purpose and is meaningless without |
| Tx:26.48 | Guilt asks for punishment, and its request is granted—not in truth | |
| Tx:26.53 | plays in ending death and all beliefs that rise from mists of | guilt. |

| Tx:26.88 | else's guilt. Can innocence be purchased by the giving of your | guilt to someone else? And is this innocence which your attack on him |
| Tx:26.88 | this and victimized despite your innocence? Whatever way the game of | guilt is played, there must be loss. Someone must lose his innocence |

| Tx:27.3 | is no pain and no reproach at all. And what was martyred to his | guilt becomes the perfect witness to his innocence. |
| Tx:27.4 | represents. A sick and suffering you but represents your brother's | guilt—the witness which you send lest he forget the injuries he |
| Tx:27.4 | me, brother; at your hand I die.” For sickness is the witness to his | guilt, and death would prove his errors must be sins. |
| Tx:27.5 | it has shown to him have you believed because it witnessed to the | guilt in him which you perceived and loved. Now in the hands made |
| Tx:27.6 | and relentless sting of fear. Attest his innocence and not his | guilt. Your healing is his comfort and his health because it proves |
| Tx:27.7 | that is the motivation for this world. Its only purpose is to prove | guilt real. No worldly thought or act or feeling has a motivation |
| Tx:27.7 | Adornment of the body seeks to show how lovely are the witnesses for | guilt. Concerns about the body demonstrate how frail and vulnerable |
| Tx:27.9 | in itself. For it becomes the symbol of reproach, the sign of | guilt whose consequences still are there to see, so that the cause |
| Tx:27.12 | from the past, when you were sure you knew its purpose was to foster | guilt. For this insists your crippled picture is a lasting sign of |
| Tx:27.13 | may be an act of charity, but not his due. He may be pitied for his | guilt, but not exonerated. And if you forgive him his transgressions, |
| Tx:27.13 | And if you forgive him his transgressions, you but add to all the | guilt that he has really earned. |
| Tx:27.14 | that pardon is unfair. They would retain the consequences of the | guilt they overlook. Yet no one can forgive a sin which he believes |
| Tx:27.16 | his innocence be justified unless his sins have no effect to warrant | guilt? Sins are beyond forgiveness just because they would entail |
| Tx:27.18 | call has power far beyond the weak and miserable cry of death and | guilt. The ancient calling of the Father to His Son, and of the Son |
| Tx:27.18 | condemned. Yet it is given you to show him by your healing that his | guilt is but the fabric of a senseless dream. |
| Tx:27.19 | are miracles! For they bestow an equal gift of full deliverance from | guilt upon your brother and yourself. Your healing saves him pain as |
| Tx:27.19 | of your desire to see your brother with no blood upon his hands nor | guilt upon his heart made heavy with the proof of sin. And what you |
| Tx:27.21 | the grounds on which they justify his pain. The constant sting of | guilt he suffers serves to prove that he is slave but they are free. |
| Tx:27.22 | not your function. It belongs to One Who knows of fairness, not of | guilt. If you assume correction's role, you lose the function of |
| Tx:27.67 | what has seen a need for evil in the world. And this is where your | guilt was first beheld. In separation from your brother was the first |
| Tx:27.68 | causes you perceived as bringing pain and suffering to you, your | guilt was not among them. Nor did you in any way request them for |
| Tx:27.74 | He brings, there is no murder and there is no death. The dream of | guilt is fading from your sight, although your eyes are closed. A |
| Tx:27.83 | that now you think that what you did is being done to you. The | guilt for what you thought is being placed outside yourself and on a |

| Tx:27.84 | childish is this petulant device to keep your innocence by pushing | guilt outside yourself but never letting go! It is not easy to |
| Tx:27.89 | the world when this is recognized! When you forgive the world your | guilt, you will be free of it. Its innocence does not demand your |
| Tx:27.89 | guilt, you will be free of it. Its innocence does not demand your | guilt, nor does your guiltlessness rest on its sins. |
| Tx:28.2 | All the effects of | guilt are here no more. For guilt is over. In its passing went its |
| Tx:28.2 | All the effects of guilt are here no more. For | guilt is over. In its passing went its consequences, left without a |

| Tx:28.27 | silence next to every dream of pain and suffering, of sin and | guilt. They are the dream's alternative, the choice to be the dreamer |
| Tx:28.29 | you play in making sickness real, the other mind cannot project its | guilt without your aid in letting it perceive itself as separate and |
| Tx:28.35 | shows you that you never sinned. The miracle would leave no proof of | guilt to bring you witness to what never was. And in your storehouse |
| Tx:29.12 | For pain and sin are one illusion, as are hate and fear, attack and | guilt but one. Where they are causeless, their effects are gone, and |

| Tx:30.76 | one illusion must be part of truth. And you could not escape all | guilt, but only some of it. You must forgive God's Son entirely. Or |

| W1:39.2 | If | guilt is hell, what is its opposite? This is not difficult, surely. |
| W1:39.2 | is not due to the ambiguity of the question. But do you believe that | guilt is hell? If you did, you would see at once how direct and |
| W1:39.4 | now, or will be asked in the future. Your holiness means the end of | guilt and therefore the end of hell. Your holiness is the salvation |
| W1:39.13 | If | guilt is hell, what is its opposite? |
| W1:58.5 | [39] My holiness is my salvation. Since my holiness saves me from all | guilt, recognizing my holiness is recognizing my salvation. It is |
| W1:62.3 | strain, and fatigue from your mind. It will take away all fear and | guilt and pain. It will restore the invulnerability and power God |
| W1:68.4 | of Him. It is as sure that those who hold grievances will suffer | guilt as it is certain that those who forgive will find peace. It is |
| W1:70.1 | to come from anywhere except from you. So, too, does the source of | guilt. You see neither guilt nor salvation as in your own mind and |

| W1:153.13 | Father, left alone in terror in a fearful world made mad by sin and | guilt, be happy now. That game is over. Now a quiet time has come in |
| W1:153.13 | is over. Now a quiet time has come in which we put away the toys of | guilt and lock our quaint and childish thoughts of sin forever from |
| W1:154.4 | the world does not obey, which promises salvation from all sin, with | guilt abolished in the mind that God created sinless. Now this mind |
| W1:156.1 | the thought of sin impossible. It promises there is no cause for | guilt, and being causeless it does not exist. It follows surely from |
| W1:158.7 | purity undimmed by errors, pitiful mistakes, and fearful thoughts of | guilt from dreams of sin. It sees no separation. And it looks on |

| W1:193.4 | and returns the hate to love, so that the fear is gone. And now | guilt cannot enter, for its source has been excluded as the purpose |
| W1:193.9 | of its forms. These are the words with which temptation ends and | guilt, abandoned, is revered no more. These are the words which end |
| W1:194.2 | of depression, thoughts of sin, and devastation brought about by | guilt. Accept today's idea, and you have released the world from all |
| W1:197.2 | How easily are God and | guilt confused by those who know not what their thoughts can do. Deny |

| M:17.7 | the fear of God most starkly represented. For in that thought has | guilt already raised madness to the throne of God Himself. And now |
| M:17.8 | condemnation, for they do not really have the power to give rise to | guilt. And so they can be overlooked and thus forgotten in the truest |
| M:18.2 | of what they are, so they will gladly be returned to Him. And now is | guilt forgiven, overlooked completely in His sight and in God's Word. |

| Tx:11.91 | Yet consider this: You are not | guiltless in time, but in eternity. You have “sinned” in the past, |
| 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 found |
| Tx:11.93 | 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 untouched |
| Tx:11.94 | there is no guilt in God's Son. And only as you look upon him as | guiltless can you understand his oneness. For the idea of guilt |

guiltlessness (40) | ||
| Tx:11.93 | as you learn the Son of God is guiltless. He has always sought his | guiltlessness, and he has found it. For everyone is seeking to escape |
| Tx:11.93 | he was created. Deny your world and judge him not, for his eternal | guiltlessness is in the mind of his Father, and protects him forever. |
| Tx:11.97 | the Atonement teaches you what immortality is, for by accepting your | guiltlessness, you learn that the past has never been, and so the |
| Tx:11.97 | only guilt could induce a sense of need for expiation. Accepting the | guiltlessness of the Son of God as yours is therefore God's way of |
| Tx:12.3 | know who the Son of God is because it is blind. Yet let it perceive | guiltlessness anywhere, and it will try to destroy it because it is |
| Tx:12.6 | is the symbol of the ego. When it was confronted with the real | guiltlessness of God's Son, it did attempt to kill him, and the |
| Tx:12.6 | Son, it did attempt to kill him, and the reason it gave was that | guiltlessness is blasphemous to God. To the ego the ego is god, and |
| Tx:12.6 | guiltlessness is blasphemous to God. To the ego the ego is god, and | guiltlessness must be interpreted as the final guilt which fully |
| Tx:12.7 | are protecting yourself. And you do not realize that it is only your | guiltlessness which can protect you. |
| Tx:13.16 | See no one, then, as guilty, and you will affirm the truth of | guiltlessness unto yourself. In every condemnation that you offer the |
| Tx:13.32 | look upon him together and love him. For in our love of him is your | guiltlessness. But look upon yourself, and gladness and appreciation |
| 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. There |
| 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 wish |
| Tx:13.65 | in any way, in any form, will lose appreciation of the value of your | guiltlessness and push it from your sight. |
| Tx:13.66 | that you can make with guilt and escape the pain which only | guiltlessness allays. Learning is living here, as creating is being |
| Tx:13.67 | of the Atonement, not for its rejection. I would accept my | guiltlessness by making it manifest and sharing it. Let me bring |
| 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. It |
| Tx:13.71 | The way to teach this simple lesson is merely this: | guiltlessness is invulnerability. Therefore, make your |
| Tx:13.85 | Then let Him teach you quietly how to perceive your | guiltlessness, which is already there. |
| 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:14.3 | are sinless. The Atonement was established as the means of restoring | guiltlessness to the mind which has denied it and thus denied Heaven |
| Tx:14.9 | The miracle acknowledges the | guiltlessness which must have been denied to produce need of healing. |
| 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:14.14 | my part in it. That is the symbol of the release from guilt by | guiltlessness. Whom you perceive as guilty, you would crucify. Yet |
| Tx:14.14 | Whom you perceive as guilty, you would crucify. Yet you restore | guiltlessness to whomever you see as guiltless. Crucifixion is always |
| Tx:14.14 | and by its condemnation, it would kill. The Holy Spirit sees only | guiltlessness, and in His gentleness, He would release from fear and |
| Tx:14.19 | yields to life simply because destruction is not true. The light of | guiltlessness shines guilt away because, when they are brought |
| Tx:14.19 | make the falsity of its opposite perfectly clear. Keep not guilt and | guiltlessness apart, for your belief that you can have them both is |
| Tx:14.67 | as he would make himself. The miracle brings the effects which only | guiltlessness can bring and thus establishes the fact that |
| Tx:14.67 | only guiltlessness can bring and thus establishes the fact that | guiltlessness must be. |
| Tx:14.68 | to guilt and committed so to remain, establish for yourself your | guiltlessness? That is impossible. But be sure that you are willing |
| Tx:27.89 | free of it. Its innocence does not demand your guilt, nor does your | guiltlessness rest on its sins. |
| W1:193.4 | has been excluded as the purpose of the lesson has been changed to | guiltlessness; the hatred has been rooted out by love. |
guilty (80) | ||
| Tx:4.61 | When you feel | guilty, know that the ego has indeed violated the laws of God, but |
| 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:5.94 | sense because this implies guilt. If you allow yourself to feel | guilty, you will reinforce the error rather than allow it to be |
| Tx:5.96 | to decide otherwise, because I want to be at peace. I do not feel | guilty, because the Holy Spirit will undo all the consequences of my |
| Tx:6.20 | engage in upside-down thinking myself. If the Apostles had not felt | guilty, they never could have quoted me as saying, “I come not to |
| Tx:9.104 | Children as wholly sinless, it is blasphemous to perceive them as | guilty. If God knows His Children as wholly without pain, it is |
| Tx:11.75 | part of the Holy Spirit's teaching. For as long as you feel | guilty, you are listening to the voice of the ego, which tells you |
| Tx:11.85 | If you did not feel | guilty, you could not attack, for condemnation is the root of attack. |
| Tx:11.87 | not God's. Only the world of guilt could demand this, for only the | guilty could conceive of it. Adam's “sin” could have touched none of |
| Tx:11.88 | realize this until you accept the eternal fact that God's Son is not | guilty. He deserves only love because he has given only love. He |
| Tx:11.91 | you and will disappear. As long as you believe the Son of God is | guilty, you will walk along this carpet, believing that it leads to |
| Tx:11.99 | The ego teaches you to attack yourself because you are | guilty, and this must increase the guilt, for guilt is the result of |

| Tx:13.11 | that hides the Father, for guilt is the attack upon His Son. The | guilty always condemn, and having done so, they will condemn, linking |
| 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 | see 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 so |
| 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 sin |
| Tx:13.16 | See no one, then, as | guilty, and you will affirm the truth of guiltlessness unto yourself. |
| Tx:13.16 | impossible 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:13.89 | You will feel | guilty till you learn this. For in the end, whatever form it takes, |

| Tx:15.3 | of Heaven but assures you that Heaven is not for you. How can the | guilty hope for Heaven? The belief in hell is inescapable to those |

| Tx:15.70 | Yet to make guilty is direct attack but does not seem to be. For the | guilty expect attack, and having asked for it, they are attracted to |
| 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 from |
| 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 for |

| Tx:16.43 | they take, they are always an attack on the self to make the other | guilty. We have spoken of this before, but there are some aspects of |
| Tx:16.44 | Very simply, the attempt to make | guilty is always directed against God. For the ego would have you see |
| Tx:16.44 | against God. For the ego would have you see Him, and Him alone, as | guilty, leaving the Sonship open to attack and unprotected from it. |

| Tx:18.50 | your guilt to your bodies from your minds. Yet a body cannot be | guilty, for it can do nothing of itself. You who think you hate your |
| Tx:19.17 | conviction that minds, not bodies, can attack. And thus the mind is | guilty and will forever so remain unless a mind not part of it can |
| Tx:19.18 | attack is real and guilt is justified. It assumes the Son of God is | guilty and has thus succeeded in losing his innocence and making |
| Tx:19.19 | that would really change his reality in any way nor make him really | guilty. That is what sin would do, for such is its purpose. Yet for |
| Tx:19.65 | forget what never was. I ask for your forgiveness, for if you are | guilty, so must I be. But if I surmounted guilt and overcame the |

| 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 |
| Tx:26.59 | while cherishing attack. Its failure lies in that you still feel | guilty, though without understanding why. Effects are seen as |
| Tx:27.2 | be his own. But every pain you suffer do you see as proof that he is | guilty of attack. Thus would you make yourself to be the sign that he |
| Tx:27.23 | your victim, not your brother, different from you in that he is more | guilty, thus in need of your correction as the one more innocent than |
| Tx:27.83 | guilt for what you thought is being placed outside yourself and on a | guilty world which dreams your dreams and thinks your thoughts |
| Tx:27.90 | from you. Now need you but to learn that both of you are innocent or | guilty. The one thing that is impossible is that you be unlike each |
| Tx:30.73 | result of seeing pardon as unmerited. No one who sees himself as | guilty can avoid the fear of God. But he is saved from this dilemma |
| Tx:30.94 | to prefer a dream allow uncertainty to enter here. Be not made | guilty and afraid when you are tempted by a dream of what he is. But |
| Tx:31.4 | established him. You who have taught yourselves the Son of God is | guilty, say not that you cannot learn the simple things salvation |
| Tx:31.7 | 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 and despair. Nor |
| Tx:31.10 | The fear 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. |
| Tx:31.27 | “yes” whenever you attack, for by attack do you assert that you are | guilty and must give as you deserve. And what can you deserve but |
