T. 19. III. 5 – 8. Jesus: “The Holy Spirit sees clearly that the Son of God can make mistakes within the world of time. On this, at least, you share His vision! Yet you do not share His recognition of the difference between time and eternity. And when correction is completed, time is eternity!
The Holy Spirit can teach you how to look on time much differently, and thus to see beyond it, but not while you cling to the belief in sin! In error, yes, for that can be corrected by the mind. But the belief in sin is the belief that what you have judged is utterly unchangeable, and that the mind must accept as true whatever the body’s perception tells it.
If it does not accept, the mind is judged to be insane. Thus the mind, the only power that could change perception, is kept impotent, held to the body by the fear of changed perception which its Teacher, Who is one with it, would bring.
When you are tempted 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 extended Himself, and it is impossible 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 good and evil; partly sane and partially insane. For He must have created what wills to destroy Him, and has the power to do so.
Is it not easier to believe that you have been mistaken than to believe in this?”
