Healing of universal beliefs

There are universal beliefs
In a power and presence
Apart from God
Manifested as sickness
Disease, lack, loneliness,
Accidents, political unrest.
But H E A L I N G
comes in realizing
That these beliefs have
Nothing to do with you.
False beliefs are
Entirely untrue
As God never made them –
Never could have
So they’re no part of you
Or your loved one.
IF YOU WANT TO CHECK,
Don’t turn to the body
Look into the full reality
That is God, and see
God in His full splendor
Living in you
Living THROUGH you
LIVING AS YOU.
Just don’t ever stop
Seeing this glorious truth
Right there where you are
INSTEAD.

Faith vs. Knowing

When you trust God …
and you call it faith …
which it is …
I just want to say …
you could go a little deeper …
in which case faith …
and trust …
become absolutely knowing.

It’s not a knowing
Based on human probability
That approaches statistical significance.
But rather an all-knowing awareness
Based on hard, cold spiritual facts.

FURTHER S.T.R.E.T.C.H.I.N.G. OF THE GRAY CELLS

FURTHER S.T.R.E.T.C.H.I.N.G. OF THE GRAY CELLS
– – – – – – – –
Each of the four space-time dimensions of the physical universe is independent of the others. For example, in the length dimension we can extend a line as long or as short as we like without affecting any measures in the width, height, or time dimensions. Similarly, lines can be extended as far as we want, even infinitely far, along each of the dimensions of width, height, and time without affecting measurements in the other three dimensions. This independence means that each dimension always must be exactly perpendicular—exactly at a ninety-degree angle—to all the other dimensions (in Euclidean geometries).

Stretching our capacity to conceptualize

KEEP S.T.R.E.T.C.H.I.N.G — YOU’LL SEE GOD EVEN MORE NEARLY.

What we must keep in mind is that our capacity to visualize things will be limited to the three space dimensions that our five senses can directly detect.
Don’t limit us, Dr. Hugh Ross, we may surprize you someday!!
————
To construct a four-dimensional realm, we need four dimension-defining lines, each line lying at right angles to the other dimension-defining lines. Let’s call these dimensions “length,”“width,”“height,”and “time.”Such a dimensional frame is the realm of our existence. But because we cannot place ourselves beyond the four dimensions—say, in a fifth dimension where we could gain some perspective—we cannot picture all four simultaneously. We are limited to picturing only three.

Beyond the Cosmos

I Am everything I ever wanted!

The I AM
That I am seeking
Is the same I Am
That Moses sought.

I am life eternal
Not to be gotten
Nor to be had.
That’s the I am
That I AM.

Don’t go back!!
Oh please don’t go back
To situations outgrown.
You’ve come much too far…
Why muddy the waters?

You’ve seen life eternal
With your whole being.
What a thrill that was
When Love flooded in.

O taste and see
That which beats out
All egotism and scholasticism.
But educates its seekers
From the inside out!

I embrace and embody
Every single thing
I want or wish for
They’re within me!
An ecstatic dis-covery!

I Am everything
I ever wanted!

Topic of healing includes everyone

IS ANYONE ELSE keenly interested in the exact opposite of the trend to clarify and distinguish (and label) people’s beliefs? I want to know how to include everyone – bar none – in an issue as benevolent as healing which knows no limit in its scope as it loves the whole world back into its native perfection.

Know no one after the flesh

LET’S NOT KNOW ANY MAN AFTER THE FLESH ANYMORE.
Our firm decision is to work from this focused center: One man died for everyone. That puts everyone in the same boat. He included everyone in his death so that everyone could also be included in his life, a resurrection life, a far better life than people ever lived on their own. [16] Because of this decision we don’t evaluate people by what they have or how they look. We looked at the Messiah that way once and got it all wrong, as you know. We certainly don’t look at him that way anymore. Now we look inside, and what we see is that anyone united with the Messiah gets a fresh start, is created new. The old life is gone; a new life burgeons!
2 Corinthians 5:14-17 MSG

…[T]he love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead: [15] And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again. [16] Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh: yea, though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we him no more. [17] Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
2 Corinthians 5:14-17 KJV
