CHAPTER 25: THE JUSTICE OF GOD

Introduction

 

            “The Christ in you inhabits not a body.”  (1:1)

 

            “And thus it must be that you are not within a body.”  (1:3)

 

            “Christ is within a frame of Holiness whose only purpose is that He may be made manifest to those who know Him not, that He may call to them to come to Him and see Him where they thought their bodies were.”  (1:8)

 

            “No one who carries Christ in him can fail to recognize Him everywhere.  Except in bodies.”  (2:1-2)

 

            “And so he carries Him unknowingly, and does not make Him manifest.”  (2:4)

 

            “The body needs no healing.  But the mind that thinks it is a body is sick indeed!  And it is here that Christ sets forth the remedy.”  (3:1-3)

 

            “Such is the mission that your brother has for you.  And such it must be that your mission is for him.” (3:7-8)

 

In summary, the: “Introduction” is saying:

 

            We each carry Christ within us, but cannot see Him while we believe we are bodies.  Shift our belief, and we will shift what we see.  In this way, our minds are healed.  This is the mission given each of us; to see one another as Christ sees us – as part of His One Self.  You will know when you have achieved this by the level of loving peace that you feel towards all those you see or think of.  

 

I. The Link to Truth

 

            “It cannot be that it is hard to do the task that Christ appointed you to do, since it is He Who does it.”  (1:1)

 

            “His holiness directs the body through the mind at one with Him.”  (1:5)

 

            “How can you manifest the Christ in you except to look on holiness and see Him there?”  (2:1)

 

            “Behold the body, and you will believe that you are there.”  (2:3)

 

            “Perception is a choice of what you want yourself to be; the world you want to live in, and the state in which you think your mind will be content and satisfied.”  (3:1)

 

            “And thus you learn what seems to have a life apart has none.”  (3:6)

 

            “You are the means for God; not separate, nor with a life apart from His.  His life is manifest in you who are His Son.”  (4:1-2)

 

            “You and your brother stand before Him now, to let Him draw aside the veil that seems to keep you separate and apart.”  (4:6)

 

            “Since you believe that you are separate, Heaven presents itself to you as separate, too.  Not that it is in truth, but that the link that has been given you to join the truth may reach to you through what you understand.”  (5:1-2)

 

            “The Holy Spirit serves Christ’s purpose in your mind, so that the aim of specialness can be corrected where the error lies.”  (6:1)

 

            “It is the Holy Spirit’s function to teach you how this oneness is experienced, what you must do that it can be experienced, and where you should go to do it.”  (6:4)

 

            “And It must use all learning to transfer illusions to the truth, taking all false ideas of what you are, and leading you beyond them to the truth that is beyond them.  All this can very simply be reduced to this:

 

            What is the same can not be different, and what is one can not have separate parts.”  (7:5-7)

 

In summary, section 1: “The Link to Truth” is saying:

 

            The Holy Spirit within us is our link to Truth.  His is the Voice that will teach us Who We Are in Truth, if we will simply open our heart and listen.  We open our inner ears by shifting our inner perception from separate bodies to oneness in Christ.  This is the only task Christ has appointed to us to do in this world; to see each other differently than the ego perceives us.  When we shift away from believing we are separate bodies, we correct the greatest error we have ever made in thinking.  Through correcting this single thought, the Holy Spirit teaches us the experience of oneness.  What must we do to have this experience?  Cease to focus your mind on the many ways we are separate.  Where should we go to do this?  Go within where you can peacefully focus your mind on our Unity through the Holy Spirit, our Link to Truth.

 

II. The Savior from the Dark

 

            “Is it not evident that what the body’s eyes perceive fills you with fear?”  (1:1)

 

            “Despite your hopes and fancies, always does despair result.”  (1:5)

 

            “The only value that the past can hold is that you learn it gave you no rewards which you would want to keep.”  (1:7)

 

            “Is it not strange that you should cherish still some hope of satisfaction from the world you see?  In no respect, at any time or place, has anything but fear and guilt been your reward.”  (2:1-2)

 

            “Yet is this hopelessness your choice, while you would seek for hope where none is ever found.”  (2:6)

 

            “Is it not also true that you have found some hope apart from this; some glimmering, - inconsistent, wavering, yet dimly seen, - that hopefulness is warranted on grounds that are not in this world?”  (3:1)

 

            “Take not the form for content, for the form is but a means for content.”  (4:3)

 

            “Who hangs an empty frame upon a wall and stands before it, deep in reverence, as if a masterpiece were there to see?  Yet if you see your brother as a body, it is but this you do.”  (5:1-2)

 

            “The Holy Spirit is the frame God set around the part of Him that you would see as separate.  Yet its frame is joined to its Creator, one with Him and with His masterpiece.  This is its purpose, and you do not make the frame into the picture when you choose to see it in its place.”  (6:1-3)

 

            “Accept God’s frame instead of yours, and you will see the masterpiece.”  (7:1)

 

            “Within the darkness see the savior from the dark, and understand your brother as his Father’s Mind shows him to you.  He will step forth from the darkness as you look on him, and you will see the dark no more.”  (8:1-2)

 

            “How could the Lord of Heaven not be glad if you appreciate His masterpiece?”  (9:1)

 

            “This brother is His perfect gift to you.”  (9:6)

 

            “Not one ray of darkness can be seen by those who will to make their Father’s happiness complete, and theirs along with His.”  (9:10)

 

            “Forgive your brother, and you cannot separate yourself from him nor from his Father.”  (10:1)

 

            “You and your brother are the same, as God Himself is One and not divided in His Will.”  (11:1)

 

            “To you and your brother is given the power of salvation, that escape from darkness into light be yours to share; that you may see as one what never has been separate, nor apart from all God’s Love as given equally.”  (11:5)

 

In summary, section 2: “The Savior from the Dark” is saying:

 

            We are each other’s savior from the dark.  To be in the dark, is to not see our oneness.  Separation is the state of a darkened mind.  Forgiveness is the light that shines away such dark thoughts; to forgive is to see beyond the body.  Forgiveness is how we save one another from the darkness; the idea of being separate.  When I say, “I forgive you,” I am saying, “I see you.  I see our oneness and sameness in God’s Love.  I do not see my thoughts about your separate body or what you are doing with it.  You are God’s gift to me.  For by your coming into a body, you allow me to see you as you are not.  And I am given the opportunity to see you differently; to see you as One with me.  And when I succeed in seeing only this truth in you, you become my savior from the dark.”

 

III. Perception and Choice

 

            “To the extent to which you value guilt, to that extent will you perceive a world in which attack is justified.”  (1:1)

 

            “God’s laws do not obtain directly to a world perception rules, for such a world could not have been created by the Mind to which perception has no meaning.”  (2:1)

 

            “Only because His Son believes it is, and from His Son’s belief He could not let Himself be separate entirely.  He could not enter His Son’s insanity with him, but He could be sure His sanity went there with him, so he could not be lost forever in the madness of his wish.”  (2:4-5)

 

            “Perception rests on choosing; knowledge does not.”  (3:1)

 

            “There is another purpose in the world that error made, because it has another Maker Who can reconcile its goal with His Creator’s purpose.  In His perception of the world, nothing is seen but justifies forgiveness and the sight of perfect sinlessness. Nothing arises but is met with instant and complete forgiveness.”  (5:1-3)

 

            “Everyone here has entered darkness, yet no one has entered it alone.  Nor need he stay more than an instant.  For he has come with Heaven’s Help within him, ready to lead him out of darkness into light at any time.”  (6:1-3)

 

            “And when he chooses to avail himself of what is given him, then will he see each situation that he thought before was means to justify his anger turned to an event which justifies his love.”  (6:5)

 

            “How can a misperception be a sin?  Let all your brother’s errors be to you nothing except a chance for you to see the workings of the Helper given you to see the world He made instead of yours.”  (7:1-2)

 

            “For it is seeing them as one that brings release from the belief there are two ways to see.  This world has much to offer to your peace, and many chances to extend your own forgiveness.  Such its purpose is, to those who want to see peace and forgiveness descend on them, and offer them the light.”  (7:7-9)

 

            “Sin is the fixed belief perception cannot change.”  (8:4)

 

            “The Holy Spirit, too, sees what He sees as far beyond the chance of change.”  (8:8)

 

            “The Son of God could never sin, but he can wish for what would hurt him.”  (9:1)

 

            “What could this be except a misperception of himself?”  (9:3)

 

            “Does he need help or condemnation?”  (9:5)

 

            “Make, then, your choice.  But recognize that in this choice the purpose of the world you see is chosen, and will be justified.”  (9:9-10)

 

In summary, section 3: “Perception and Choice” is saying:

 

            We have a choice in what we see in this world.  We can see separate bodies, attacking and at war with one another, ranging from mere differing opinions to murder.  Or we can see another world entirely.  We can see the many parts of the Son of God, inhabiting bodies who are participating in an illusion of being in conflict.  Is it wrong to participate?  No, but such suffering is a needless misperception.  We can choose to see differently.  We can choose not to misperceive.  Do not miss your chances to forgive – to make the choice to see only God’s Stillness within all whom you perceive through the ego’s eyes.  Making the peaceful choice in perception is your purpose here in this world.

 

IV. The Light You Bring

 

            “Minds that are joined and recognize they are, can feel no guilt.  For they cannot attack, and they rejoice that this is so, seeing their safety in this happy fact.”  (1:1-2)

 

            “Perception’s basic law could thus be said, “You will rejoice at what you see because you see it to rejoice.”  And while you think that suffering and sin will bring you joy, so long will they be there for you to see.”  (2:1-2)

 

            “You maker of a world that is not so, take rest and comfort in another world where peace abides.  This world you bring with you to all the wary eyes and tired hearts that look on sin and beat its sad refrain.  From you can come their rest.”  (3:1-3)

 

            “In you there is a vision that extends to all of them, and covers them in gentleness and light.”  (3:5)

 

            “Would you not do this for the Love of God?  And for yourself?”  (4:1-2)

 

            “Those who offer peace to everyone have found a home in Heaven the world cannot destroy.  For it is large enough to hold the world within its peace.”  (4:9-10)

 

            “In you is all of Heaven.”  (5:1)

 

            “How better could your own mistakes be brought to truth than by your willingness to bring the light of Heaven with you, as you walk beyond the world of darkness into light?”  (5:12)

 

In summary, section 4: “The Light You Bring” is saying:

 

            We bring light to this world every time we choose to shift our thoughts to peace instead of attack.  True peace is to feel our Oneness, our sameness in God’s Love.  Peace is unity.  A mind at peace recognizes itself as being beyond the body; beyond all guilt.  While we believe that sin or separation is what we prefer to see, we will suffer from our choice.  And so, as bringers of the light, we can offer a new world to all those we see.  We can choose to see them differently and thus bring them into our world of peace.  Heaven is within us.  And how do we “see” Heaven within ourselves?  There is only one thing within us that we can sense, and that is what we feel.  Let us be willing then, to overlook what we see with our outer, bodily eyes, and extend what is within us to the world.  Let us then offer the world the light we feel; the light we bring through knowing we are One.

 

V. The State of Sinlessness

 

            “The state of sinlessness is merely this:  The whole desire to attack is gone, and so there is no reason to perceive the Son of God as other than he is.”  (1:1)

 

            “Attack and sin are bound as one illusion, each the cause and aim and justifier of the other.”  (1:3)

 

            “Attack makes Christ your enemy, and God along with Him.”  (2:1)

 

            “For who could see the Son of God as innocent and wish him dead?  Christ stands before you, each time you look upon your brother.  He has not gone because your eyes are closed.”  (2:8-10)

 

            “Forgiven by you, your savior offers you salvation.  Condemned by you, he offers death to you.  In everyone you see but the reflection of what you choose to have him be to you.”  (4:5-7)

 

            “It is no sacrifice that he be saved, for by his freedom will you gain your own.”  (5:1)

 

            “And so you walk toward Heaven or toward hell, but not alone.  How beautiful his sinlessness will be when you perceive it!  And how great your joy, when he is free to offer you the gift of sight God gave to him for you!”  (5:3-5)

 

            “Look once again upon your brother, not without the understanding that he is the way to Heaven or to hell, as you perceive him.  But forget not this; the role you give to him is given you, and you will walk the way you pointed out to him because it is your judgment on yourself.”  (6:5-6)

 

In summary, section 5: “The State of Sinlessness” is saying:

 

            The state of sinlessness is merely a state of mind where you look beyond all bodies.  It is truly a state of forgiveness.  You may still look upon bodies, seeing what they do and say, but react to them as they are in truth; as part of your One Self and God.  You react to them lovingly, with patience and kindness, knowing they do not know who they are to you, and who you are to them in the Unity of Spirit.  All bodies we see, offer us the opportunity to see this way.  Some are more challenging than others, but it does not mean they are any less precious to God, and therefore to us.  Herein lies the path away from hell and directly to Heaven; the role we would give everyone we see.  See them all as resting in a state of forgiveness; God’s stillness; in an eternal state of sinlessness or bodilessness.

 

VI. The Special Function

 

            “The grace of God rests gently on forgiving eyes, and everything they look on speaks of Him to the beholder.  He can see no evil; nothing in the world to fear, and no one who is different from himself.”  (1:1-2)

 

            “He would no more condemn himself for his mistakes than damn another.”  (1:4)

 

            “The kindness of his sight rests on himself with all the tenderness it offers others.  For he would only heal and only bless.  And being in accord with what God wills, he has the power to heal and bless all those he looks on with the grace of God upon his sight.”  (1:6-8)

 

            “The wish to see calls down the grace of God upon your eyes, and brings the gift of light that makes sight possible.  Would you behold your brother?  God is glad to have you look on him.”  (3:1-3)

 

            “Such is the Holy Spirit’s kind perception of specialness; His use of what you made, to heal instead of harm.  To each He gives a special function in salvation he alone can fill; a part for only him.”  (4:1-2)

 

            “Here, where the laws of God do not prevail in perfect form, can he yet do one perfect thing and make one perfect choice.”  (5:1)

 

            “Forgiveness is the only function meaningful in time.  It is the means the Holy Spirit uses to translate specialness from sin into salvation.  Forgiveness is for all.  But when it rests on all it is complete, and every function of this world completed with it.”  (5:3-6)

 

            “Salvation is no more than a reminder this world is not your home.”  (6:1)

 

            “The Holy Spirit needs your special function, that His may be fulfilled.”  (7:1)

 

            “In light, you see it as your special function in the plan to save the Son of God from all attack, and let him understand that he is safe, as he has always been, and will remain in time and in eternity alike.  This is the function given you for your brother.”  (7:7-8)

 

            “Do this one thing, that everything be given you.”  (7:10)

 

In summary, section 6: “The Special Function” is saying:

 

            Our special function is forgiveness.  And what is forgiveness but simply the stillness of thought; the quiet surrender of all thoughts that attack the peace of God’s Son, of Whom we are all a part?  It is the surrender of all thoughts about bodies and what others are doing or saying with them.  It is to cease to judge such thoughts as “good” or “bad,” but merely not true.  When thoughts about bodies are released from our mind, “The grace of God rests gently on forgiving eyes, and everything they look on speaks of Him to the beholder.  He can see no evil; nothing in the world to fear, and no one who is different from himself.”  (1:1-2). And so it is, we can forgive, returning our mind to God’s peace.  This is salvation, the remembrance that this world and all it contains is not our home.  Do not react to it as though it has the power to hurt you.  Forgive it instead.  See it as in need of the stillness of your thoughts about it, that it may rest in peace.  Do this one thing, your special function of forgiveness, and the world will be given you – transformed into Heaven.

 

VII. The Rock of Salvation

 

            “Yet if the Holy Spirit can commute each sentence that you laid upon yourself into a blessing, then it cannot be a sin.”  (1:1)

 

            “The magic of the world can seem to hide the pain of sin from sinners, and deceive with glitter and with guile.  Yet each one knows the cost of sin is death.”  (1:5-6)

 

            “For sin is a request for death, a wish to make this world’s foundation sure as love, dependable as Heaven, and as strong as God Himself.”  (1:8)

 

            “It cannot be the “sinner’s” wish for death is just as strong as is God’s Will for life.”  (2:1)

 

            “If you could realize nothing is changeless but the Will of God, this course would not be difficult for you.  For it is this that you do not believe.”  (2:8-9)

 

            “Let us go back to what we said before, and think of it more carefully.  It must be so that either God is mad, or is this world a place of madness.”  (3:1-2)

 

            “If one belief so deeply valued here were true, then every Thought God ever had is an illusion.  And if but one Thought of His is true, then all beliefs the world gives any meaning to are false, and make no sense at all.  This is the choice you make.”  (3:7-9)

 

            “The rest is up to God, and not to you.”  (3:12)

 

            “To justify one value that the world upholds is to deny your Father’s sanity and yours.  For God and His beloved Son do not think differently.”  (4:1-2)

 

            “Sin is not real because the Father and Son are not insane.”  (4:8)

 

            “The Holy Spirit has the power to change the whole foundation of the world you see to something else; a basis not insane, on which a sane perception can be based, another world perceived.”  (5:1)

 

            “For here is everything perceived as one, and no one loses that each one may gain.”  (5:4)

 

            “Test everything that you believe against this one requirement, and understand that everything that meets this one demand is worthy of your faith.”  (6:1)

 

            “Love is the basis for a world perceived as wholly mad to sinners, who believe theirs is the way to sanity.  But sin is equally insane within the sight of love, whose gentle eyes would look beyond the madness and rest peacefully on truth.”  (6:4-5)

 

            “Because He is not mad has God appointed One as sane as He to raise a saner world to meet the sight of everyone who chose insanity as his salvation.”  (8:2)

 

            “This One but points to an alternative, another way of looking at what he has seen before, and recognizes as the world in which he lives, and thought he understood before.”  (8:4)

 

            “What is dependable except God’s Love?  And where does sanity abide except in Him?  The One who speaks for Him can show you this, in the alternative He chose especially for you.  It is God’s Will that you remember this, and so emerge from deepest mourning into perfect joy.”  (10:1-4)

 

            “Salvation is rebirth of the idea no one can lose for anyone to gain.”  (12:1)

 

            “Here is sanity restored.  And on this single rock of truth can faith in God’s eternal saneness rest in perfect confidence and perfect peace.”  (12:3-4)

 

            “This is the rock on which salvation rests, the vantage point from which the Holy Spirit gives meaning and direction to the plan in which your special function has a part.”  (12:7)

 

            “Salvation is His Will because you share it.  Not for you alone, but for the Self that is the Son of God.” (13:4-5)

 

            “And this is sane because it is the truth.”  (13:7)

 

In summary, section 7: “The Rock of Salvation” is saying:

 

            Salvation is built upon one idea; we are One in God and in each other.  This is the rock upon which salvation rests.  All other Thoughts of God spring forth from this premise, and all other ideas of the world must be tested against it for truth.  We must ask ourselves with each thought, “Does this idea foster our Unity or separation?”  If it does not align with our Unity and peace, then it is a false thought; a thought based on the ego and it must be seen as insane and disregarded.  This is how we return our minds to sanity.  A sane mind sees only Love, the binding force of all things in creation.  Not the exterior of things, but the inner world that holds the power of God.  To see separation is to see sin.  These two words are interchangeable.  To see Unity is to see salvation.  These two words are interchangeable.  Let our Oneness then, be the rock of salvation upon which all our thinking is based, and we will have sanity restored to us.

 

VIII. Justice Returned to Love

 

            “The Holy Spirit can use all that you give to Him for your salvation.  But He cannot use what you withhold, for He cannot take it from you without your willingness.”  (1:1-2)

 

            “You need not give it to him wholly willingly, for if you could you had no need of Him.  But this He needs; that you prefer He take it than that you keep it for yourself alone, and recognize that what brings loss to no one you would not know.”  (1:5-6)

 

            “Here is the only principle salvation needs.”  (2:1)

 

            “But remember salvation is not needed by the saved.  You are not called upon to do what one divided still against himself would find impossible.”  (2:4

 

            “But be you thankful that only little faith is asked of you.”  (2:7)

 

            “There is a kind of justice in salvation of which the world knows nothing.  To the world, justice and vengeance are the same, for sinners see justice only as their punishment, perhaps sustained by someone else, but not escaped.”  (3:1-2)

 

            “You who know not of justice still can ask, and learn the answer.  Justice looks on all in the same way.” (4:1-2)

 

            “For He is wholly fair to everyone.  Vengeance is alien to God’s Mind because He knows of justice.  To be just is to be fair, and not be vengeful.”  (5:4-6)

 

            “It is impossible for you to share the Holy Spirit’s justice with a mind that can conceive of specialness at all.”  (5:8)

 

            “It is extremely hard for those who still believe sin meaningful to understand the Holy Spirit’s justice.”  (6:1)

 

            “And so they fear the Holy Spirit, and perceive the “wrath” of God in Him.”  (6:3)

 

            “They do believe that Heaven is hell, and are afraid of love.”  (6:5)

 

            “Yet justice cannot punish those who ask for punishment, but have a Judge Who knows that they are wholly innocent in truth.”  (8:1)

 

            “And God rejoices as His Son receives what loving justice knows to be his due.  For love and justice are not different.  Because they are the same does mercy stand at God’s right Hand, and gives the Son of God the power to forgive himself of sin.”  (9:9-11)

 

            “As specialness cares not who pays the cost of sin, so it be paid, the holy Spirit heeds not who looks on innocence at last, provided it is seen and recognized.”  (11:1)

 

            “You can be perfect witness to the power of love and justice, if you understand it is impossible the Son of God could merit vengeance.”  (12:1)

 

            “Judge not because you cannot, not because you are a miserable sinner too.  How can the special really understand that justice is the same for everyone?”  (13:3-4)

 

            “Their Father gave the same inheritance to both.”  (13:6)

 

            “You have the right to all the universe; to perfect peace, complete deliverance from all effects of sin, and to the life eternal, joyous and complete in every way, as God appointed for His holy Son.  This is the only justice Heaven knows, and all the Holy Spirit brings to earth.”  (14:1-2)

 

            “Let love decide, and never fear that you, in your unfairness, will deprive yourself of what God’s justice has allotted you.”  (14:7)

 

In summary, section 8: “Justice Returned to Love” is saying:

 

            We have a skewed and incorrect view of what justice truly is.  We think justice is some form of payment of debt for wrongdoing.  It is “just” when people are punished for what they have done wrong.  However, to God, justice is fair and impartial.  He punishes no one.  He only loves, for that is how we are seen through His eyes; incapable of harm because we are incapable of being separate bodies.  Bodies can harm one another, but Spirit cannot.  This does not mean we have to agree with the atrocities of the world; we merely are being asked to see things in a new way.  We are being asked to see the world through the eyes of love.  Love sees only Unity and the need for healing if such Unity is not perceived by any part of its One Self.  And so, we who cannot see our own Unity, must give all judgement over to the Holy Spirit, Who can look upon the world correctly.  “Justice looks on all in the same way.”  (4:1-2) “…Love and justice are not different.  Because they are the same does mercy stand at God’s right Hand, and gives the Son of God the power to forgive (or overlook) himself of sin (all forms of separation).”  (9:9-11).  In this way, is justice correctly perceived and returned to love.

 

IX. The Justice of Heaven

 

            “What can it be but arrogance to think your little errors cannot be undone by Heaven’s justice?”  (1:1)

 

            “Are you willing to be released from all effects of sin?  You cannot answer this until you see all that the answer must entail.  For if you answer “yes” it means you will forego all values of this world in favor of the peace of Heaven.  Not one sin would you retain.”  (1:3-6)

 

            “Be certain any answer to a problem the Holy Spirit solves will always be one in which no one loses.”  (3:1)

 

            “And every error is a perception in which one, at least, is seen unfairly.”  (3:6)

 

            “When anyone is seen as losing, he has been condemned.  And punishment becomes his due instead of justice.”  (3:7-9)

 

            “The sight of innocence makes punishment impossible, and justice sure.”  (4:1)

 

            “The Holy Spirit’s problem solving is the way in which the problem ends.  It has been solved because it has been met with justice.  Until it has it will recur, because it has not yet been solved.”  (5:1-3)

 

            “Healing must be for everyone, because he does not merit an attack of any kind.”  (6:3)

 

            “If miracles, the Holy Spirit’s gift, were given specially to an elect and special group, and kept apart from others as less deserving, then is He ally to specialness.”  (7:2)

 

            “Unless you think that all your brothers have an equal right to miracles with you, you will not claim your right to them because you were unjust to one with equal rights.”  (8:1)

 

            “Only forgiveness offers miracles.”  (8:5)

 

            “The unforgiven have no mercy to bestow upon another.  That is why your sole responsibility must be to take forgiveness for yourself.”  (9:5-6)

 

            “Each miracle is an example of what justice can accomplish when it is offered to everyone alike.”  (10:4)

 

            “It is awareness that giving and receiving are the same.  Because it does not make the same unlike, it sees no differences where none exists.  And thus it is the same for everyone, because it sees no differences in them.  Its offering is universal, and it teaches but one message:

 

What is God’s belongs to everyone, and is his due.”  (10:6-10)

 

In summary, section 9: “The Justice of Heaven” is saying:

 

            Are we willing to be released from all effects of sin, or separation?  Answering “yes” to this question means that we are willing to let go of every grievance we ever had, allowing our thoughts about all situations to rest in peace; to rest in the knowing that what we thought was done to us, was never done, because we are not who we think we are to one another.  To say “yes” is to agree to be released from all effects of separation, which means we have agreed to forgive the world.  To forgive the world, is to overlook it entirely, knowing it is a false reality of separation.  To forgive is to offer a miracle.  And a miracle is an example of God’s justice; an example of loving That Which Unites us within instead of attacking what we perceive as outside of us.  God’s miracle of justice is offered to everyone alike, because the giver understands we are all alike.  We are One Love and what love we give, is also then received by us, the love of our One Self.  And what love belongs to us, must then belong to everyone.  No one is excluded from God’s love.  This is the justice of God.

This concludes CHAPTER 25: THE JUSTICE OF GOD
