T. 26. VII. 10 – 13. Jesus: “Salvation, perfect and complete, asks but a little wish that what is true be true; a little willingness to overlook what is not there; a little sigh that speaks for Heaven as a preference to this world that death and desolation seem to rule.
In joyous answer will creation rise within you, to replace the world you see with Heaven, wholly perfect and complete. What is forgiveness but a willingness that truth be true? What can remain unhealed and broken from a unity which holds all things within itself?
There 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.
What is the Will of God? He wills His Son have everything! And this He guaranteed when He created him as everything. It is impossible that anything be lost, if what you have is what you are. This is the miracle by which creation became your function, sharing it with God. It is not understood apart from Him, and therefore has no meaning in this world. Here does the Son of God ask not too much, but far too little.

To find a little treasure of his own, the Son would sacrifice his own identity with everything. And this he cannot do without a sense of isolation, loss and loneliness. This is the treasure he has sought to find. And it is such that he could only be afraid of it. Is fear a treasure? Can uncertainty be what you want? Or is it a mistake about your will, and what you really are?
Let us consider what the error is, so it can be corrected, not protected! Sin is the belief attack can be projected outside the mind where the belief arose. Here is made ‘real and meaningful’ the firm conviction that ideas can leave their source. And from this error does the world of sin and sacrifice arise.
This world is but an attempt to prove your innocence, while secretly still cherishing attack! Its failure lies in that you still feel guilty, though without understanding why. Effects here are seen as separate from their source, and seem to be beyond you to control or to prevent. What is thus kept apart can never join!
Cause and effect are one, not separate. God wills you learn what always has been true: that He created you as part of Him, and this must still be true because ideas leave not their source. Such is creation’s law; that each idea the mind conceives but adds to its abundance, never takes away.”
