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.

GOLDSMITH INFINITE WAY CHAPTERS WE SHOULD KNOW

From – The Contemplative Life By Joel Goldsmith Our students dare not forget for a single day that whatever transpires in their experience comes as an activity of their own consciousness, and therefore it is essential that there be a constant reminder of God as the one and only Power, the conviction that power is not in person or effect, but only in the invisible consciousness of the individual. Because of mesmeric world sense, we must regularly bring to conscious awareness the understanding of these revealed principles. By a neglect of these principles, we unknowingly accept the problems of human … Continue reading GOLDSMITH INFINITE WAY CHAPTERS WE SHOULD KNOW

Suggestions For Healing Work

Excerpts from The Infinite Way “Why are we so slow in gaining our freedom from illness, discord and other material conditions? It is entirely because of our inability to grasp the great revelation that there is no reality to error. “So much attention has been given to faith in God to do something for us; or to faith in a healer or teacher, that we have over-looked the great truth—error is not real—there is no matter. “We are learning from physical scientists as well as metaphysicians that what has been termed matter is a misinterpretation of Mind. Mind is God … Continue reading Suggestions For Healing Work

Ask, Seek, Knock

“Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.” Part One These words of the Master have raised the question among students as to whether or not we are contradicting them when we say, Ask not, Seek not. There is no contradiction: instead, there is another question—What did the Master mean when He said, Ask, Search, Knock? As we come to understand more fully the message of Jesus Christ, we will know that to Ask, to Seek, to Knock, is all part of spiritual developments, but not in the … Continue reading Ask, Seek, Knock
