²It is God’s Will your mind be one with His. ³It is God’s Will that He has but one Son. ⁴It is God’s Will that His one Son is you. ⁵Think of these things in practicing today, and start the lesson that we learn today with this instruction in the way of truth:
⁶Salvation is my only function here.
⁷Salvation and forgiveness are the same.⁸Then turn to Him Who shares your function here, and let Him teach you what you need to learn to lay all fear aside, and know your Self as Love which has no opposite in you.
Forgive all thoughts which would oppose the truth of your completion, unity and peace. ²You cannot lose the gifts your Father gave. ³You do not want to be another self. ⁴You have no function that is not of God. ⁵Forgive yourself the one you think you made. ⁶Forgiveness and salvation are the same. ⁷Forgive what you have made and you are saved.”
⁵Thus do you lay forgiveness on your mind and let all fear be gently laid aside, that love may find its rightful place in you and show you that you are the Son of God.” (A Course in Miracles, W-99.9:2–10:7;12:5. See also ACIM Lesson 99 Insights.)
To the ego’s religion, it is blasphemous to believe that we are the one Son of God. But the truth does not require belief. It merely requires acceptance of what is and has forever been.
We have taught ourselves to believe a lie about our Identity. The lie comes from the wish to have a unique identity that we can call our own. This could only be seem to be accomplished in a dream founded on belief but not truth.
Today we are assured that all we need to do is forgive this mistaken wish and we will awaken to the fact that we are Love, united with our Father in Love. Because Love is only one, God’s Son is one, which includes every brother whom we have perceived as different but who, in fact, is our one Self. Forgiveness is our only function in the dream. It leads to salvation from the dream and awakening to our Reality as Love.
