Atmosphere of God (3/5)

Many times people turn to these metaphysical movements, metaphysical teachings, truth teachings, for healings, for some other form of good, and in our present development, all of that is legitimate. It is right that people come to us seeking health, harmony, wholeness; seeking the overcoming of their discords. But watch this point well: It is not legitimate that we continue in that frame of mind very long. Continue reading Atmosphere of God (3/5)

The Last Enemy (4/5)

We have the opportunity of completely overcoming death in the sense of remaining right here on earth in our present form and in a continuing and progressive appearance of that form.
Overcoming the world begins with our understanding of oneness, of our unity with God, with the realization that, inasmuch as “I can of mine own self do nothing,” all that is pouring through me is the life, the health, and the wholeness which is God. Continue reading The Last Enemy (4/5)

Spiritual Consciousness (4/4)

God is infinite divine consciousness; therefore God is your individual consciousness, and this consciousness is the law unto your life.  Don’t try to direct it; be satisfied that it is so and rest in that Word.  God is infinite divine consciousness; therefore God is my consciousness and your consciousness; his consciousness and her consciousness; the consciousness of friend and of foe –universal, divine, omnipresent being, God consciousness – the law unto all creation.  And when you rest in that, It picks you up and transforms the mind, the body, and what is called the outer experience, but which now you learn isn’t outer at all.  It’s all taking place within you.

The Function Of The Christ In You (2/4)

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)

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 Nature of God (2/5)

1959 San Diego Special Class Tape 269 Side 1 The Nature of God By Joel Goldsmith Part 2 of 5 Probably one of the reasons that our great Herbert Hoover has reached this magnificent age of 85 in full possession of his faculties and at the very height of his mental capacities and in good physical health is due to the fact that all of his life he has felt that it was a demand upon him personally and upon all mankind to help those who at the moment could not help themselves – even when they were enemies. He … Continue reading The Nature of God (2/5)
