Chapter 28 The Undoing of Fear

ACIM CHAPTER 28 THE UNDOING OF FEAR VII. The Ark of Safety

1. God asks for nothing, and His Son, like Him, need ask for nothing. For there is no lack in him. An empty space, a little gap, would be a lack. And it is only there that he could want for something he has not. A space where God is not, a gap between theContinue reading “ACIM CHAPTER 28 THE UNDOING OF FEAR VII. The Ark of Safety”

ACIM CHAPTER 28 THE UNDOING OF FEAR VI The Secret Vows

1. Who punishes the body is insane. For here the little gap is seen and yet it is not here. It has not judged itself, nor made itself to be what it is not. It does not seek to make of pain a joy and look for lasting pleasure in the dust. It does notContinue reading “ACIM CHAPTER 28 THE UNDOING OF FEAR VI The Secret Vows”

ACIM CHAPTER 28 THE UNDOING OF FEAR V. The Alternate to Dreams of Fear

1. What is a sense of sickness but a sense of limitation? Of a splitting off and separating from? A gap that is perceived between you and your brother, and what is now seen as health?

ACIM CHAPTER 28 THE UNDOING OF FEAR III. The Agreement to Join

1. What waits in perfect certainty beyond salvation is not our concern. For you have barely started to allow your first, uncertain steps to be directed up the ladder separation led you down.

ACIM CHAPTER 28 THE UNDOING OF FEAR II. Reversing Effects and Cause

1. Without a cause there can be no effects, and yet without effects there is no cause. The cause a cause is made by its effects, the Father is a Father by His Son. Effects do not create their cause, but they establish its causation. Thus, the Son gives Fatherhood to his Creator, and receivesContinue reading “ACIM CHAPTER 28 THE UNDOING OF FEAR II. Reversing Effects and Cause”

ACIM CHAPTER 28 THE UNDOING OF FEAR I. The Present Memory

1. The miracle does nothing. All it does is undo. And thus it cancels out the interference to what has been done. It does not add, but merely takes away. And what it takes away is long since gone but kept in memory appears to have immediate effects. This world was over long ago. TheContinue reading “ACIM CHAPTER 28 THE UNDOING OF FEAR I.
