Holy Spirit Speaks Part 3 of 5
Remember this From My Universal Curriculum

By giving you My Universal Curriculum I am merely holding up a mirror to point the way to the light of who You really are. I am not giving you this so one can make a new identity. You can take this truth or leave it. And many of you will leave it, for the obvious reason that you will not find gratification in My words. Therefore you will not support them, because you support what you value. Some of you will be tickled and love My words but you will be greatly confused and be teachers of ego. All are called but only a few will transfer My words fully in this generation. These words are for those who have the ears to hear. Remember this from My book A Course in Miracles, "To learn this course requires willingness to question every value that you hold. Not one can be kept hidden and obscure but it will jeopardize your learning. No belief is neutral. Every one has the power to dictate each decision you make. For a decision is a conclusion based on everything that you believe. It is the outcome of belief, and follows it as surely as does suffering follow guilt and freedom sinlessness. There is no substitute for peace. What God creates has no alternative. The truth arises from what He knows. And your decisions come from your beliefs as certainly as all creation rose in His Mind because of what He knows." (T.24.IN.2.1)

Defending and making another wrong through an intellectual stance of a particular spiritual idea, or any idea denies My Curriculum. The whole aim of My Universal Curriculum is to see the present moment as it is, to see that all is perfect now, that there is nothing to be resolved, corrected or fixed. Remember this, "To the extent to which you value guilt, to that extent will you perceive a world in which attack is justified. To the extent to which you recognize that guilt is meaningless, to that extent you will perceive attack cannot be justified. This is in accord with perception's fundamental law: You see what you believe is there, and you believe it there because you want it there. Perception has no other law than this. The rest but stems from this, to hold it up and offer it support. This is perception's form, adapted to this world, of God's more basic law; that love creates itself, and nothing but itself."

There is no journey to God; there is only the timeless moment of Now! When one recognizes this truth, you will see that the separation has not occurred. Remember this, "The mind can make the belief in separation very real and very fearful, and this belief is the "devil". It is powerful, active, destructive and clearly in opposition to God, because it literally denies His Fatherhood. Look at your life and see what the devil has made. But realize that this making will surely dissolve in the light of truth, because its foundation is a lie…Nothing at all has happened but that you have put yourself to sleep, and dreamed a dream in which you were an alien to yourself, and but a part of someone else's dream. The miracle does not awaken you, but merely shows you who the dreamer is. It teaches you there is a choice of dreams while you are still asleep, depending on the purpose of your dreaming. Do you wish for dreams of healing, or for dreams of death? A dream is like a memory in that it pictures what you wanted shown to you."

I take no sides and I judge not the road you seem to travel. I perceive no separation, because I do not see what is not real. This is your calling, a calling into pure abstraction. But this is not what the world wants for spirituality or religion. This is too simple. Unless you believe <think> exactly as the world proclaims spirituality or religion to be, then you are wrong in its eyes. In the worlds eyes there are believers and the unbelievers. This is level confusion, confusing the form of My Universal Course (content) with its particular expression (form). It is important to know that God or Truth can be but known. The important thing to remember is that you are not on either side because there are no sides to truth! There is only Oneness. How can there be sides in abstraction, in Oneness? When we have abstraction, which is ones natural condition; then we have freedom because there is nothing to choose from. This is religion.

I want to make this clear: Nobody misleads anyone else. You are faithful to one or the other, the ego or Me. You make the choice. The most important idea to be clear on is the idea of `cause'. The closest approximation to `cause' or creation that the perceptual realm offers is `choice'. You are either choosing one thought system or another, fear or love, illusions or forgiveness and you cannot serve two masters. Love or fear is the only options that are available in the perceptual realm. And one of them is an illusion and the other is real, which is choiceless abstraction. Remember this, "Whatever is true is eternal, and cannot change or be changed. Spirit is therefore unalterable because it is already perfect, but the mind can elect what it chooses to serve. The only limit put on its choice is that it cannot serve two masters. If it elects to do so, the mind can become the medium by which spirit creates along the line of its own creation. If it does not freely elect to do so, it retains its creative potential but places itself under tyrannous rather than Authoritative control. As a result it imprisons, because such are the dictates of tyrants. To change your mind means to place it at the disposal of true Authority."

"No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon."

Matthew 6:24

The power of your mind lies in your interpretation, so the question is; where do you want to place the power of your mind? Who do you want to lead you? Do you prefer the world and its system of thought or the complete relinquishment of the worlds system? Remember this, "You hate the one you gave the leader's role when you would have it, and you hate as well his not assuming it at times you want to let the follower in you arise, and give away the role of leadership. And this is what you made your brother for, and learned to think that this his purpose is. Unless he serves it, he has not fulfilled the function that was given him by you. And thus he merits death, because he has no purpose and no usefulness to you…. Christ calls to all with equal tenderness, seeing no leaders and no followers, and hearing but one answer to them all. Because He hears one Voice,he cannot hear a different answer from the one He gave when God appointed Him His only Son."

Having a belief system, a set of conceptual thoughts that you regard as the absolute truth, does not make you spiritual or an authority no matter what the foundation of those beliefs are. And in fact the more you make your thoughts (beliefs) into your identity, the more you will be blocked from loves awareness. This is why it's important to undo and question all beliefs. God is beyond belief. Remember this, "Nor is belief in God a really meaningful concept, for God can be but known. Belief implies that unbelief is possible, but knowledge of God has no true opposite. Not to know God is to have no knowledge, and it is to this that all unforgiveness leads. And without knowledge one can have only belief…. All terms are potentially controversial, and those who seek controversy will find it….Theological considerations as such are necessarily controversial, since they depend on belief and can therefore be accepted or rejected. A universal theology is impossible, but a universal experience is not only possible but necessary. It is this experience toward which the course is directed. Here alone consistency becomes possible because here alone uncertainty end."

part 4 will be posted soon...
