What Is Salvation?

by Rev. Mary Manke

image As I listened during today’s lesson, which is “Holding grievances is an attack on God’s plan for salvation,” I asked, “What is salvation, Father? Tell me, that I may understand.” This is what came to me from Spirit:

Salvation is to be freed from illusions, from insane plans for survival, from investment in false dreams. Salvation is Love. When you accept the Presence of Love, the false falls away. In Love’s Presence, there is no cause (for guilt/fear) and no need for illusion or lies.

Salvation is the healing of a mind made mad. It is accepting the truth and nothing added to the truth. The impossible stories that mind thought up, vanish in the light of Love.

The idols that you have dreamed to protect the body are nothing. The body is nothing for is is not real. Only the eternal is real. As God’s Son you are real. Love created you like Itself. Choose to release the dream you have made.

Choose to release the idols that you thought would protect you. Release the belief that you can be harmed, and have harmed others. Love can never harm. Love only extends, gives Itself. Love gives love to all. Do not be chained to the past — the past is gone. It is a fantasy of mind insane with pain of guilt. The past is nothing, for it was “made” from nothing. It has no value, it holds no treasure. It’s purpose in the ego mind is to distort the now, making the future like the past.

To me, Spirit tells ideas so simply. Only the insane mind thinks such ideas are lies, made to trap and kill. Letting go of what is not real cannot be fearful. Holy Spirit is the only one that undoes the false thoughts I have made. He reveals to me what is Real. Holy Spirit is the only one that can shine the light that I may recognize the truth, the love that is in my mind, that I am One with.
