Serving as a Teacher of God

A teacher of God is anyone who chooses to be one. His qualifications consist solely in this; somehow, somewhere he has made a deliberate choice in which he did not see his interests as apart from someone else’s.

[The function of teachers of God] is to save time. Each one begins as a single light, but with the Call at its center it is a light that cannot be limited. And each one saves a thousand years of time as the world judges it.

There is a course for every teacher of God. The form of the course varies greatly. So do the particular teaching aids involved. But the content of the course never changes. Its central theme is always, “God’s Son is guiltless, and in his innocence is his salvation.” It can be taught by actions or thoughts; in words or soundlessly; in any language or in no language; in any place or time or manner. It does not matter who the teacher was before he heard the Call. He has become a savior by his answering. He has seen someone else as himself. He has therefore found his own salvation and the salvation of the world. In his rebirth is the world reborn. (A Course in Miracles, M-1.1:1-2;2:11-13;3)

In the introduction to A Course in Miracles it says, “This is a required course.” It’s required because everyone must learn that God’s Creation is innocent. Thus the lesson for us all to learn is to forgive our judgments that cause us to perceive ourselves as separate and therefore guilty of denying our unity with all of God’s Creation.

The antidote to guilt is the recognition of our oneness with All That is. In this oneness our interests with everyone are the same. There can be no differences in what is one. The recognition of our oneness returns us to accepting God’s Law of Love and letting go of the ego’s laws of separation. Each time we look upon a brother with Love or answer his call for Love with Love, we are serving the teacher of God’s function. We do our part in healing the mind that mistakenly believed separation was real.

Today is a happy day of practicing letting the Holy Spirit judge all things on our behalf. His judgment recognizes only the oneness of Love as real. As we follow His lead, we function as a teacher of God.
