Spiritual Consciousness (3/4)

Back in the earlier days of the aborigines of Australia, you had there with such complete knowledge of mind power that they could bless, but they could also curse and kill, just with the power of their mind.  The Hawaiians had the good Kahunas that could heal; the bad Kahunas who could kill.  There have been sects of people in most parts of the world where there were original natives, primitive people, and all of these knew the power of mind, and how to use it for good or evil.

Spiritual Consciousness (1/4)

Imagine, if you can, what would be the nature of a God that could watch these last three wars through which we’ve gone and do nothing about it.  Just let it go on, aware of it?  Heaven forbid that there should be such a God!  If God had the power to stop these wars – these bombings, the poverty, the slavery in some parts of the world – and didn’t stop it, God would be fiend, not a God; and if God didn’t have the power to stop it, God certainly wouldn’t be a God – one or the other.  If God had the power to stop it and didn’t, it could not be God; if God had the power to stop it, and didn’t, God would be a fiend.  Not even a human parent could watch this carnage and permit it to go on if they could stop it.

Being a disciple of the Christ

Being A Disciple of The Christ By Joel Goldsmith         The disciples of the Christ were imprisoned, but they walked out of prison with an angel ministering to them. The disciple of the Christ, who does not believe safety, security, health, and harmony are to be found in pieces of matter, mounts the cross and rises out of the tomb. That individual, reborn of the Sprit, lives in the Fourth Dimension of life. He is still in the world but not of it. The disciple of the Christ moves about in the world and works at the same daily tasks … Continue reading Being a disciple of the Christ

Toward the experience (2/6)

Infinite Way Letter 1965 – January Aka – Beyond Words & Thoughts By Joel Goldsmith Part 2 of 6 Toward the Experience   Motive         You might rightly ask, “then what is the good of all this teaching? What is the good of all the years of study of these books?” And I will say to you that the Experience will not come without that. The study, the practice, the living, and the reading are the steps that break down the mortal sense into which we were born, that enable us to “die” to mortal sense and to be “reborn.”         … Continue reading Toward the experience (2/6)

The Resurrection

IW Morsel – Potential         Everyone on earth has, potentially, the same consciousness as Jesus Christ. It is infinite; it is here; and it is awaiting us. The question is—are we willing to put in the hours of devotion; are we willing to make the effort required to train ourselves to be conscious of the presence of God, instead of seeking some form in which God is to appear. From – Spiritual Healing By Joel Goldsmith P.196 From – 1961 Los Angeles Closed Class The Resurrection Excerpt – Tape 398 Side 1 Joel Goldsmith We do not battle error, we … Continue reading The Resurrection

The Nature Of God (5/5)

1959 San Diego Special Class Tape 269 Side 1 The Nature of God By Joel Goldsmith Part 5 of 5 Now, illumination isn’t anything of a material nature or even of an occult nature. Illumination really means light, the receiving of light, and light doesn’t mean light in the physical sense but in the mental. It means understanding, awareness. Therefore, when you are illumined, it means only that you have received the actual experience of knowing God’s presence, knowing God’s grace. There is nothing emotional about it, I can assure you. Those who look for emotional experiences not only miss … Continue reading The Nature Of God (5/5)

The Function of Mind

From – Tape 399 Side 1 1961 Los Angeles Closed Class By Joel Goldsmith The Function of Mind Now then, let this be understood: the flesh or body is in reality spiritual and perfect, and that is why it can be said, yet in my flesh shall I see God. In other words, right now while I am tabernacling here on earth, right now while I have this physical body, I do see God and tabernacle with God, and am ordained by God, and live by the grace of God; and this entire world activity is governed by God’s government … Continue reading The Function of Mind
