You who believed that God’s Last Judgment would condemn the world to hell along with you, accept this holy truth: God’s Judgment is the gift of the Correction He bestowed on all your errors, freeing you from them, and all effects they ever seemed to have. To fear God’s saving grace is but to fear complete release from suffering, return to peace, security and happiness, and union with your own Identity.
Be not afraid of love. For it alone can heal all sorrow, wipe away all tears, and gently waken from his dream of pain the Son whom God acknowledges as His.
This is God’s Final Judgment: “You are still My holy Son, forever innocent, forever loving and forever loved, as limitless asyour Creator, and completely changeless and forever pure. Therefore awaken and return to Me. I am your Father and you are My Son.”” (A Course in Miracles Workbook: What is the Last Judgment, W-pII.10.3;4:2-3;5. See also ACIM Lesson 3111 Insights.)
The key message of A Course in Miracles, stated in the Introduction, is that only Love is real. It has no opposite. The rest of the Course is dedicated to help us undo our fear of Love and accept that Love is our Identity, united eternally with our Creator.
The ego is afraid of Love because separation cannot exist within the oneness of Love. Its thought system of separation has built myriad forms to make separation appear real. And we have taught ourselves to believe that this world of form is all that exists. This belief blinds us to the eternal presence of changeless Love.
But this blindness has no effect on the Love we are. It only makes us unaware of It. Meanwhile God knows that we remain united with Him in Love. This is His first and final judgment. The fact that God has not changed His Mind about His Creation guarantees that we are safe in His Love. His Voice is in our mind, calling us to return to Him. This Voice is available to us in every moment to teach us the true perception that recognizes the innocence of Love beyond the appearance of forms.
Today we choose to listen to His Voice, for we would awaken the safety, peace and happiness that is our natural Home.
