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.

Infinite Way Letter August 1956 By Joel Goldsmith Part 3 of 6 CONTEMPLATIVE MEDITATION The Middle Path – continued Freedom is a quality enjoyed when we have overcome duality by refusing to entertain any sense of iniquity or destruction, or beliefs in a presence or power apart from God.

Infinite Way Letter 1964 – November Aka – Realization of Oneness By Joel Goldsmith Part 1 of 7 Lifting Up the I There is no one mode, means, method, or system which can correctly be called metaphysical or spiritual healing. In fact, there are as many different approaches to spiritual healing as there are in materia medica with its allopathy, homeopathy, osteopathy, chiropractic, and naprapathy, all different forms of materia medica. In the world of metaphysical and spiritual healing, there are the evangelists who, by the grace of God, have received some special state of consciousness through which they heal … Continue reading Lifting up the I (1/7)

1962 HOLLAND CLOSED CLASS TAPE 499 SIDE 1 THE FUNCTION OF THE CHRIST IN YOU By Joel Goldsmith Part 2 of 4 It is true that most of us, as we came to a metaphysical or spiritual [healing]… teaching, came for healing, and that seems to be perfectly legitimate—because it is one of the ways, nature has of driving us back to God. But the point that I make is, that even though we receive our healing, and many of us do receive healing even before that desire for God is awakened—we do it because of the intensity of the … Continue reading The Function Of The Christ In You (2/4)

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)
