Our Unbreakable Communication with God

[The Holy Spirit] is the Voice for God, and has therefore taken form. This form is not His reality, which God alone knows along with Christ, His real Son, Who is part of Him.

The Holy Spirit is described throughout the course as giving us the answer to the separation and bringing the plan of the Atonement [undoing of the dream of separation] to us, establishing our particular part in it and showing us exactly what it is.

The Holy Spirit is described as the remaining Communication Link between God and His separated Sons. In order to fulfill this special function the Holy Spirit has assumed a dual function. He knows because He is part of God; He perceives because He was sent to save humanity. He is the great correction principle; the bringer of true perception, the inherent power of the vision of Christ. He is the light in which the forgiven world is perceived; in which the face of Christ alone is seen. (A Course in Miracles, C-6.1:4-2:1;3:1-5)

By choosing to accept the thought that we could separate from our Creator, we established a situation in which we believed we had broken our communication with God. In that instant God established the Holy Spirit to be His Communication Link with His Son Who mistakenly believed he was separate.

The Self that is God’s Son was not affected by this mistaken belief. The Holy Spirit speaks for this Self to the part of the mind that perceives separation is real. He is the Bridge between this Self and the self made by the ego in the attempt to make separation and specialness seem real.

As long as part of our mind accepts belief in separation, the Holy Spirit is needed to teach us to look beyond appearances. With His help, we learn to see with Christ’s vision which shows us a forgiven world. When forgiveness is complete, the made-up self no longer seems to exist and the Holy Spirit is no longer needed. We remember we are the Self God created as His one Son.
