Miracles recognize what is already true when your will aligns with God’s.
Let truth be true: forgiveness removes barriers and cancels attack’s effects.
Pillar
Place sin belief where it is—mind—and healing reverses projection’s laws.
All shadows are equally false; purpose can turn any form to healing.
Healing follows the law that blessing never remains private.
Healing reverses perception’s laws; truth is known beyond changing forms.
Healing follows one Will that gives: conflict is only perception.
Supporting
A little wish for truth invites full salvation, shared and complete.
Because there is no sin, every miracle is possible now.
Trying to prove innocence while cherishing attack keeps guilt and seeks punishment.
Forgiveness joins what private wishes tried to keep apart.
Sin rests on the belief you can project attack beyond your mind.
Sickness reflects wishing to stay apart by putting sin between brothers.
Changing effects alone only moves the problem to another form.
Even tiny sacrifice trades wholeness for a private treasure and fear.
Healing follows one law: what saves one saves all, equally.
Minor
The world hides attack under “innocence”; forgiveness removes its effects.
Ideas add to abundance because creation knows no loss.
Each instant offers life; the wish to hurt chooses death instead.
Each instant chooses life or death; forgiveness is the little wish.
Healing recognizes unchanged truth, not shifting symptoms or timelines.
Salvation is one action: what you hold must be offered and received together.
One answer fits every form: separation makes sickness, sanity undoes it.
Let truth be true; little willingness overlooks what isn’t there.
Attack chooses crucifixion; forgiveness brings rebirth in the instant.
Healing begins when error is corrected, not protected from reason.
Healing denies the split‑Will picture that makes Love vengeful.
Healing remembers an ancient Name shared by brother and God.
Be the means of peace for your brother; unity fulfills wishes without conflict.
Guilt asks for punishment, then projects it as God’s vengeance.
Echo
Separate bodies mirror the wish for separate spaces in time and place.
The Kingdom was created united; healing rests on remembering oneness.
Unity leaves no room for specialness: what is one cannot compete.
Healing answers from eternity while working within time and place.
