T. 26. VII. 8 – 10. Jesus: “Nothing gives meaning where no meaning is. And truth needs no defense to make it true. Illusions have no witnesses and no real effects. Who looks on them is but deceived.
Forgiveness is the only function here, where sin was thought to rule, and serves to bring the joy this world denies to every aspect of God’s Son.
Perhaps you do not see the role forgiveness plays in ending death and all beliefs that rise from the mists of guilt. Sins are beliefs that you impose between your brother and yourself. They limit you to time and place, and give a little space to you, another little space to him. In your perception, this separating off is symbolized by a body which is clearly separate and a thing apart. Yet what this symbol represents is but your wish to be apart and separate!
Forgiveness takes away what stands between your brother and yourself. It is instead, the wish that you be joined with him, and not apart.
We call it ‘wish’ because it still conceives of other choices, and has not yet reached beyond the world of choice entirely. Yet is this wish aligned with Heaven’s state, and not in opposition to God’s Will. Although it falls far short of giving you your full inheritance, it does remove the obstacles that you have placed between the Heaven where you really are, and recognition of where and what you are. The facts are unchanged. Yet facts can be denied and thus be unknown, though they were known before they were denied.
Salvation, perfect and complete, asks but a little wish that you let 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.”
