Proof That God Is

We must all agree the most mysterious subject of all is the existence of God. Either God isn't or God Is. A Course In Miracles (1333 pages) by Dr.Helen Schucman is in my opinion the most profound spiritual manuscript ever written. Christians are looking for the return of Jesus; he has returned via these magnificent writings. Helen began receiving the material for The Course quietly over eight years, from 1965 to 1973 at the age of 43. Schucman said that the book had been dictated to her, word for word, via a process of inner dictation from Jesus. At first, insanity crossed her mind, so she ask...

A 20-Minute Read That May Change Your Life

The most mysterious question in existence is simple: Does God exist or not? I've studied A Course in Miracles every day for over 15 years, and after publishing 23 manuscripts on its teachings, one truth stands unshaken: This 1,333‑page masterpiece was written by one woman, never re‑interpreted, and nothing in it contradicts logic. The Bible begins with, "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth." But consider this instead, "In the beginning God created Christ." And who is Christ? You. The one who forgot and is now remembering. Bob


 


 

The Truth of Creation

In the beginning, Christ was God's first Creation, and we remain that radiant Oneness. We dreamed of separation, and the ego was born, but the Holy Spirit still whispers that Love is all that's real. Every act of forgiveness dissolves a layer of the dream, awakening us to what never changed. Jesus taught forgiveness because it ends fear. When the final layer falls, we'll awaken in Heaven, the Home we never left. Bob

We Will All Awaken Together

I asked artificial intelligence if everyone I've ever met could awaken in Heaven when I do, after I've achieved perfection in forgiveness.

Awakening isn't solitary. It's shared. And forgiveness is the key. Life outside Heaven is impossible, Hell does not exist and it is impossible to sin against God. Bob
