The Nature of God (4/5)

1959 San Diego Special Class Tape 269 Side 1 The Nature of God By Joel Goldsmith Part 4 of 5 I wrote a book review on a book which was written by a minister in which he said he made experiments with plants and found that prayer would help to grow them and that prayer could be used to destroy them. And you know, of course, that that’s not true. There isn’t one of you here who has any right to believe that because you must know that prayer concerns God. You must know that prayer is an activity that … Continue reading The Nature of God (4/5)

(Response) I have been asked if there is a way in which we can train ourselves to practice the presence of God, some simple way that everyone on the face of the globe could practice.

The Nature of God (1/5)

1959 San Diego Special Class Tape 269 Side 1 The Nature of God By Joel Goldsmith Part 1 of 5 Good morning! Yesterday I brought to your attention the fact that this class is really a God-miracle, and what you experienced was another proof of that miracle because for the first time in the entire class experience of over 12 years, our work went through two solid hours without even a stop to breathe or walk or rest, and that has never before happened. Also, it will interest you to know that many of our classes consist of only one-hour … Continue reading The Nature of God (1/5)

What About This Body? (2/4)

What About This Body? – Part 2 of 4 Chapter 9 Let us assume that John Jones has asked for help for a physical condition. He may have mentioned that his problem was influenza, which at that time was raging throughout his community and may have reached almost epidemic proportions. In your treatment, your first recognition is that this is a suggestion of a selfhood apart from God, and that leaves you free to forget the patient and the condition. The entire truth that you know is about God, and the entire treatment remains on the level of God: If … Continue reading What About This Body? (2/4)

Only To Listen/ Spiritual Discernment

IW Morsel – Only To Listen We do not go to God to tell him what claim or what disease is to be removed, or what sin or what limitation or lack, nor do we go to God to explain our need for money or employment.

From-Rising In Consciousness By Joel Goldsmith P.21 From – Living by Grace By Joel Goldsmith P. 98-99 Spiritual Discernment Unless you have spiritual discernment, words are meaningless. You must therefore develop your spiritual discernment so that you will instinctively and automatically know … Continue reading Only To Listen/ Spiritual Discernment

It Shall Not Come Nigh Thee (2/5)

By Joel Goldsmith Part 2 of 5 “” Your Experience Is Your Consciousness Objectified Those are comforting words to read, but the all-important question before each and every person is: How can I arrive at that state of consciousness? How can I become the one who dwells “in the secret place of the most High”? I can assure you that this is not brought about by sitting idly by and accepting what the world doles out to you. It has to be done consciously. Whether you believe it or not, your life is either a conscious activity of your consciousness … Continue reading It Shall Not Come Nigh Thee (2/5)

Building a Consciousness of Grace

From – Beyond Words & Thoughts By Joel Goldsmith Chapter 2 / Building a Consciousness of Grace P.17 A Knowledge of Truth Develops Consciousness The activity of the human mind is not power in the sense of spiritual power, and not all the knowledge that can be embraced in the human mind—even all the knowledge of truth—is spiritual power. Knowledge of truth acts to remove from us our ignorance of the nature of Spirit and Its activities and operations. An example of this is that when we first come to the study of truth we believe that if we can … Continue reading Building a Consciousness of Grace

THE DEEP POOL OF YOUR BEING (1/6)

It is well, at this point of our spiritual unfoldment, that we stop for a moment and take stock of ourselves. Just what is the specific principle we are trying to prove, and from which we expect great things? First of all, the principle is that God is individual consciousness; God is the consciousness of the individual; God is your consciousness and mine. Many facets of this principle have been presented in the Message, but one point, above all, that may be called the vision of The Infinite Way, and from which proceeds all else, is the principle that God … Continue reading THE DEEP POOL OF YOUR BEING (1/6)
