…this course was sent to open up the path of light to us, and teach us, step by step, how to return to the eternal Self we thought we lost.
I take the journey with you. For I share your doubts and fears a little while, that you may come to me who recognize the road by which all fears and doubts are overcome. We walk together. I must understand uncertainty and pain, although I know they have no meaning. Yet a savior must remain with those he teaches, seeing what they see, but still retaining in his mind the way that led him out, and now will lead you out with him. God’s Son is crucified until you walk along the road with me.
My resurrection comes again each time I lead a brother safely to the place at which the journey ends and is forgot. I am renewed each time a brother learns there is a way from misery and pain. I am reborn each time a brother’s mind turns to the light in him and looks for me. I have forgotten no one. Help me now to lead you back to where the journey was begun, to make another choice with me. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Review V, W-pI.rV.5:4-7:5. See also ACIM Lesson 171 Insights.)
Jesus, our elder brother, knows that he is one with our Father and only Love is real. He can share our doubts and fears. Thus, because does not believe them, he can teach us using symbols we can understand to help us let go of our mistaken beliefs. He is part of our one Self, God’s one Son, and thus is in our mind, always available as our Counselor and Teacher. While we believe we are on our own, we need this help because our mistaken belief system denies the truth.
When we believe separation is real, the world we perceive is an image of the crucifixion of God’s Son. It denies the Life we live in God, offering an illusion of existence it calls “life.” With Jesus’ help as a channel of the Holy Spirit, we can undo our false beliefs and awaken to the Life we live in God — a Life of perfect Love, peace and joy.
