Practicing the Infinite Way (8)

Wim Haverkamp

Infinite Way Letter August 1955 By Joel Goldsmith Essential Points In Infinite Way Practice Part 8 of 10 The Divine Author – continued Here the question arises: Cannot those who do not recognize God-government, and who do not bring themselves under the divine law, influence our experience and hinder our demonstration? The answer is: No, they cannot! As we, individually, look to God as the author and finisher of our world, and as we steadfastly hold to the truth that “the government shall be upon his shoulder,” we come to understand that the visible scene is but the idea of … Continue reading Practicing the Infinite Way (8)

World Consists of Effects I

Wim Haverkamp

What you behold in this world consists of effects, but there is not anything that you can behold that is not the result of an inner activity. You release this inner activity which goes out into the world invisibly and then produces visible fruitage. A Parenthesis In Eternity P.359 By Joel Goldsmith From – The Mystical I By Joel Goldsmith P. 33 Imparting I I in the midst of you is mighty, but the moment you create an image, you have I and an image. Therefore, do not have any “I” but the I that you declare: I. Be satisfied … Continue reading World Consists of Effects I

There is no sin

Wim Haverkamp

By Joel Goldsmith Excerpt from Tape 271 Side 1 In the moment that you do not use physical or mental resistance, a transcendental presence of power comes into effect in your consciousness. It’s there all the time. It’s always there. You have… Every individual has enough power within themselves to live eternally, immortally, harmoniously, and abundantly, but they have to learn to live that way without taking thought. In other words then, the moment that I recognize God as infinite life, omnipresent life, remember, that life which I am, and which you are … And then the minute I realize … Continue reading There is no sin

The Nature of I

Wim Haverkamp

From – The Mystical I By Joel Goldsmith P. 31 The Nature of I All discord, all inharmony, and all error are experienced because of a sense of separation from God. But this sense of separation from God is not your fault personally. It is the universal belief that has come down to us from the allegorical experience of Adam and Eve being cast out of the Garden of Eden. Nevertheless, this universal sense of separation from God is responsible for our sins, disease, death, lack, and limitation. Therefore, immortality and infinity can be returned to us only as we … Continue reading The Nature of I

UNDERSTANDING GOD AND PRAYER (6)

Wim Haverkamp

1960 HOLLAND OPEN CLASS TAPE 341 SIDE 1 UNDERSTANDING GOD AND PRAYER By Joel Goldsmith Part 6 of 6 Now we all read the newspapers, or perhaps listen to the news on the television or the radio, and I wouldn’t be surprised that some of us even believe that if we were president or king or emperor, that we’d know more what to do than our present ones are doing. Probably we could give them some advice as to how these human problems could be met. But if there is any man or woman here willing to face themselves honestly, … Continue reading UNDERSTANDING GOD AND PRAYER (6)

UNDERSTANDING GOD AND PRAYER (4)

Wim Haverkamp

1960 HOLLAND OPEN CLASS TAPE 341 SIDE 1 UNDERSTANDING GOD AND PRAYER By Joel Goldsmith Part 4 of 6 So it is, this thing of saying grace, “Thank you, God, for what you have on my table,” what about all our neighbors’ tables? Is that no concern of ours? “Love thy neighbor as thyself”. We should learn to say grace with very meal, but let that be a praise and a gratitude that the crops are in God’s hand, and the things of earth are in God’s hand, and because they are in God’s hand, they’re universal, impersonal, impartial, and … Continue reading UNDERSTANDING GOD AND PRAYER (4)

UNDERSTANDING GOD AND PRAYER (3)

Wim Haverkamp

1960 HOLLAND OPEN CLASS TAPE 341 SIDE 1 UNDERSTANDING GOD AND PRAYER By Joel Goldsmith Part 3 of 6 I am sure that for awhile it shocked many people in the United States to find that one of the great scientific discoverers, a man who has added a great deal to knowledge of scientific facts in the States, is a Negro, born of parents in slavery. I am sure that it must shock a lot of people to learn that some of our great discoveries, some of our great works in the world have come from, not your religion or … Continue reading UNDERSTANDING GOD AND PRAYER (3)

No Mental Cause for Disease

Wim Haverkamp

IW Morsel – Form or Effect In the spiritual way of life we do not live by form or effect. I Stand On Holy Ground P.113 By Joel Goldsmith From-Conscious Union With God By Joel Goldsmith P. 62 From-No Mental Cause for Disease It shocked me to learn that error is not result of a person’s thinking because I had always been taught that disease is caused by wrong thinking, but I discovered in the first year of my practice that this is not true. How could a baby suffer because his parents were indulging in wrong thinking? No, he … Continue reading No Mental Cause for Disease
