JCIM, CH8, The Journey Back
Healing as Corrected Perception
Quote:
You have surely begun to realize that this is a very practical course, which means EXACTLY what it says. So does the
Bible, if it is properly understood. There has been a marked tendency on the part of many of the Bible’s followers, and also its
translators, to be entirely literal about fear and ITS effects, but NOT about love and ITS results. Thus, “hellfire” means
“burning,” but raising the dead becomes allegorical. Actually, it is PARTICULARLY the references to the outcomes of love
which SHOULD be taken literally because the Bible is ABOUT love, being about God.
