Primary

Cause and Effect ▲ Milestone Nothing outside you causes fear; time can serve awakening instead.

Pillar

Oneness Nothing stands outside God; the idea of an outside fades. Changelessness God’s decision about you is steady; let that be your safety.

Supporting

Creation / Extension Creation remains within God: your extending adds without adding difference. Time Time can serve awakening when no longer worshipped. Love Nothing beyond God’s Love can rival your holy mind.

Minor

Invulnerability If nothing is outside God, nothing external can threaten you. Fear Threatened peace is a cue to change your mind about cause. Illusions Disturbance arises in imagination; God’s laws remain protective and unchanged. Peace When peace feels threatened, question whether I think God changed.

Echo

Means—End Use time only to remember what is timeless. Will of God God’s decision is Love; your will cannot be against it. Fear of God Loss of peace misread as God reversing His decision.
