Judgment Your brother becomes savior or target depending on the role you choose. Guilt Escape from guilt is the Holy Spirit’s purpose, so it is possible. Innocence Selective innocence becomes faith in sin—exclude no one. Holy Spirit Escape from guilt is possible when you accept His means. Ego When truth seems meaningless, the ego has defined the options. Guiltlessness No exceptions: seeing no guilt in anyone ends misery.

Minor

Projection The great projection claims your own making can imprison you. Salvation Your brother is your savior: choose mercy, and salvation replaces misery. Separation The misery premise: leaving the Father’s Mind and opposing His Will. Will of God Nothing is impossible to the Creator; no exceptions remain in the holy relationship. Oneness One decision is shared wherever the holy relationship is accepted. Faith No compromise: defend one illusion, and faith leaves innocence for sin. Cause and Effect What you made cannot enslave you; let innocence be the cause. Death / Suffering Illusions all end alike; brotherhood becomes the fork toward life. Kingdom No illusion enters Heaven; choosing it means seeing your brother sinless. Changelessness Eternal joy cannot turn into sorrow inside the holy relationship.
