T. 23. I. 8 – 10. Jesus: “There is nothing you could attack that is not part of you! And by attacking it you make two illusions of yourself, each in conflict with the other. And this occurs whenever you look with anything but love on anything that God created. Conflict is fearful, for it is the birth of fear.
Yet what is born of nothing cannot win reality through battle. Why would you fill your world with conflicts with yourself? Let all this madness be undone for you, and turn in peace to the remembrance of God, still shining in your quiet mind!
See how the conflict of illusions disappears when it is brought to truth! For it seems real only as long as it is seen as war between ‘conflicting truths;’ the conqueror supposedly the truer, the more real, and the vanquisher of the other illusion that was less real, made into an illusion by its defeat! Thus you feel conflict when you try to make a choice between illusions, one to be crowned as ‘real,’ the other vanquished and despised. Here will the Father never be remembered!
Yet no illusion can invade your Father’s home and drive Him out of what He loves forever. And what He loves must be forever quiet and at peace because it is His home. You who are beloved of Him are no illusion, being as true and holy as Himself.
The stillness of your certainty of Him and of yourself is home to Both of You, Who dwell as one and not apart. Open the door of His most holy home, and let forgiveness sweep away all trace of the belief in sin that keeps God homeless and His Son along with Him. You are not a stranger 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 have no place where love abides, protecting you from everything that is not true.
You dwell in peace as limitless as its Creator, and everything is given those who would remember Him. Over His home the Holy Spirit watches, sure that its peace can never be disturbed.”
