OrEd-T-1.1-Principles of Miracles.36-4236. Christ-controlled miracles are part of the Atonement, but Christ-guidance is personal and leads to personal salvation. The impersonal nature of miracles is an essential ingredient, because this enables Jesus to control their distribution. Christ-guidance leads to the highly personal experience of revelation. This is why it involves personal choice. A...

OrEd-T-1.1-Principles of Miracles.28-3528. Miracles are a means of organizing the different levels of consciousness. Miracles come from the subconscious level below, and revelations come from the superconscious level above. The conscious level is in between, and responds to either the sub- or super-conscious impulses. Consciousness is the level that works in the world, and is able to respond to...

OrEd-T-1.1-Principles of Miracles.21-2721. Miracles are natural expressions of total forgiveness. Through miracles, man accepts God's forgiveness by extending it to others. 22.

This is a solution that has led...

OrEd-T-25.5-The Joining of Minds.mp332. Minds that are joined and recognize they are can feel no guilt. For they cannot attack, and seeing their safety in this happy fact, they rejoice that this is so. They seek for joy because it is their purpose to behold it and rejoice. Their joy is in the innocence they see. Everyone seeks for what brings him joy as he defines it. Yet, the way the aim is seen...

OrEd-T-25.4-Fundamental Law-Perception23. The extent to which I value guilt, to that extent I will perceive a world in which attack is justified. The extent to which I recognize that guilt is meaningless, to that extent I will perceive attack cannot be justified. This is in strict accord with vision's fundamental law: I see what I believe is there, and I believe it is there because I want it...

OrEd-T-25.3-Savior From the Dark.217. The Holy Spirit is the frame God set around the part of Him that I would see as separate. Yet the frame is joined to its Creator, one with Him, and with His masterpiece. This is the frame's purpose, and I do not make the frame into the picture when I choose to see the Holy Spirit in place of the picture. The frame that God has given serves His purpose, and...
