T18J7 "It gives way softly to the mountain tops that rise above it, and has no power at all to hold back anyone willing to climb above it, to see the sun."

T19C3 "The Son of God CAN be mistaken; he CAN deceive himself; he can even turn the power of his mind AGAINST himself."

T19D7 "The ONLY power that could CHANGE perception is thus kept impotent, held to the body by the FEAR of changed perception, which its Teacher, Who is One with it, would bring."

T19D8 "For He must have created what wills to destroy Him, and HAS THE POWER TO DO SO."

T19D9 "For sin would PROVE what God created holy could not prevail against it, nor remain ITSELF before the power of sin."

T19D10 "For there would be a power BEYOND God's, capable of making another will, which could attack His Will, and OVERCOME it."

T19D12 "YOU will be healed of sin and all its ravages, the INSTANT that you give it no power over EACH OTHER."

T19G8 "Think of your happiness, as everyone offers you witness of the end of sin, and shows you that its power is gone forever."

T19H1 "For what He gives MUST be extended, if YOU would have its limitless power, and use it for the Son of God's release."

T19J4 "You who are dedicated to the incorruptible, have been given, through YOUR acceptance, the power to RELEASE from corruption."

T19K5 "From BEYOND each of these OBSTACLES to love, Love Itself has called, and each has been surmounted by the power of the attraction of what lies BEYOND."

T19L1 "IT would not have you see its weakness and learn it has NO power to KEEP you from the truth."

T19L6 "He has IN HIM the power to forgive YOUR sins, as you for HIM."

T20C7 "WITH him, your vision has become the greatest power for the UNDOING of illusion that God Himself could give."

T20D8 "And YOU have given it power to ADJUST the world to MAKE its answer true."

T20D9 "Give it NO power to ADJUST the means and end."

T20E1 "Nothing can hurt you, unless you give it the power to do so."

T20E1 "For YOU give power as the laws of this world INTERPRET giving; as you give, you LOSE."

T20E1 "It is not up to you to give power at all."

T20E1 "Power is of God, GIVEN by Him, and RE-AWAKENED by the Holy Spirit, Who knows that, as you give you GAIN."

T20E1 "He gives NO power to sin, and therefore it HAS none."

T20E1 "These things have not occurred, because the Holy Spirit sees them not, and gives no power to their seeming source."

T20E3 "It is the re-awakening of the laws of God in minds that have established OTHER laws, and given them power to enforce what God created not."

T20E3 "Your insane laws were made to GUARANTEE that you would make mistakes, and give them power over you by ACCEPTING their results as your just due."

T20E4 "Their power is of God."

T20E5 "Nothing but this can touch them, for they see ONLY this, sharing their power according to the Will of God."

T20E5 "Ask not the sparrow how the eagle soars, for those with little wings have not accepted for THEMSELVES the power to share with you."

T20E5 "See, then, the power of sinlessness within your brother, and share with him the power of the RELEASE from sin you offered HIM."

T20F2 "Peace to your holy relationship, which has the power to hold the unity of the Son of God together."

T20G4 "IT DOES NOT SEEK FOR POWER, but for RELATIONSHIPS."

T20G4 "The body is the ego's chosen weapon for seeking power THROUGH relationships."

T20G9 "The unholy instant of their seeming power is frail as is a snowflake, but without its loveliness."

T20I5 "The body is the sign of weakness, vulnerability, and LOSS of power."

T20I7 "What can the body's eyes perceive, with power to CORRECT?"

T20I8 "Once you ACCEPT this simple fact, and take unto YOURSELF the power you GAVE them, YOU are released from them."

T21A2 "And, if this IS its meaning, then the power to GIVE it joy MUST lie WITHIN you."

T21C2 "Say ONLY this, but MEAN it with NO reservations, for here the power of salvation lies: "I AM responsible for what I see."

T21C3 "His power of decision is the DETERMINER of every situation in which he seems to FIND himself by chance or accident."

T21C3 "Be happy, and you GAVE the power of decision to Him Who MUST decide for God for you."

T21C3 "For, BY this gift, is given you the power to release your Savior, that HE may give salvation unto YOU."

T21C4 "But, for this, the POWER of your wanting must first be RECOGNIZED."

T21C6 "This is the statement that he HAS the power to make God powerLESS."

T21C9 "There is no better demonstration of the power of wanting, and therefore of FAITH, to make its goals seem real and possible."

T21C11 "For, if you think the world you made has power to make you what IT wills, you ARE confusing Son and Father; effect and Source."

T21C12 "APART from this, he HAS no power to create, and what he makes is meaningless."

T21D2 "The power of faith is NEVER recognized, if it is placed in sin."

T21D3 "This is indeed a little feat for such a power."

T21D5 "Faith given to illusions does NOT lack power, for, BY it, does the Son of God believe that he is powerless."

T21D8 "Desiring to look upon their brothers in holiness, the power of belief and faith goes far BEYOND the body, SUPPORTING vision, NOT obstructing it."

T21D8 "But first they chose to RECOGNIZE how much their faith had limited their understanding of the world, DESIRING to place its power elsewhere, should another point of view be GIVEN them."

T21D10 "Your faith in sacrifice has given it great power in your sight."

T21D12 "And give it power to serve as means to help the blind to see."

T21G1 "For uncorrected error of ANY kind deceives you about the power that is IN you, to MAKE correction."

T21G7 "The power to HEAL the Son of God is given you, BECAUSE he MUST be one with you."

T21G11 "The power that YOU have over the Son of God is NOT a threat to his reality."

T21H2 "And what can they do but ENVY him his power, and BY their envy, make themselves AFRAID of it?"

T21H2 "These are the dark ones, silent and afraid, alone and not communicating, fearful the power of the Son of God will strike them dead, and raising up their helplessness AGAINST him."

T21H4 "Those who are strong are NEVER treacherous, because they have no need to DREAM of power, and to act out their dream."

T21H7 "Here, then, would seem to be the last remaining hope of finding sin, and NOT accepting power."

T21H8 "Forget not that the choice of truth or sin, power or helplessness, IS the choice of whether to attack or HEAL."

T21H8 "For healing comes of POWER, and ATTACK of helplessness."

T21H10 "You can desire to exchange your helplessness for power, and LOSE this same desire as a little glint of sin attracts you."

T21H13 "The power of the Son of God's desire remains the proof that he is wrong who sees himself as helpless."

T21H13 "No thought but has the power to release or kill."

T21I2 "NOTHING has power to confound its constancy, because its OWN desire can not BE shaken."

T21I3 "For no-one fails to ASK for his desire of SOMETHING he believes holds out some promise of the power of GIVING it."

T21I4 "You who complete His Will and ARE His happiness, whose will is powerful as His, -- a power that is NOT lost in your illusions, -- think carefully why it should be you have not yet decided how you would answer the final question."

T22C4 "Such is the power of belief."

T22C9 "Let us look closer at the whole illusion that what you made has power to enslave its maker."

T22C10 "NOTHING you made has ANY power over you, unless you still would be APART from your Creator, and with a will OPPOSED to His."

T22C12 "How great the power that lies in it."

T22E3 "A choice made with the power of Heaven to uphold it cannot BE undone."

T22F3 "For in this quiet state alone is strength and power."

T22G4 "This holy relationship has the power to heal ALL pain, REGARDLESS of its form."

T22G10 "He will join to it ALL the power that God has given Him, to make each little gift of love a source of healing for everyone."

T22G11 "And it is only arrogance that would DENY the power of your will."

T22G12 "For it SEEMS safer to attack another or yourself, than to attack the great Creator of the universe, Whose power you KNOW."

T22G13 "If you were one with Him, AND RECOGNIZED THIS ONENESS, you would know His power is YOURS."

T22G17 "Would you REGRET you cannot fear alone, when your relationship can also teach the power of love is there, which makes ALL fear impossible?"

T23B1 "Conflict WITHIN you MUST imply that you believe the ego has the power TO BE VICTORIOUS."

T23B8 "It can NOT exist between one power and nothingness."

T23E4 "Each form of murder and attack that still attracts you, and that you do not recognize for what it is, limits the healing and the miracles you HAVE the power to extend to all."

T24A1 "And what illusion that idly seems to drift between them has power to defeat what IS Their Will?"

T24A2 "NO belief is neutral; every one has power to dictate each decision you make."

T24B2 "And many senseless outcomes HAVE been reached, and meaningless decisions have been made and kept hidden, to become beliefs now GIVEN power to direct all subsequent decisions."

T24B2 "Mistake you not the power of these hidden warriors to disrupt your peace."

T24C2 "Who can detract from his omnipotence, and SHARE his power?"

T24C7 "You who have chained your Savior to your specialness, and given it HIS place, remember this: He has NOT lost the power to forgive you all the sins you think you placed between him and the function of salvation GIVEN him for you."

T24D2 "And yet this idol that seems to GIVE you power has taken it away."

T24F1 "The power of a wish upholds illusions as strongly as does Love extend Itself."

T24G9 "And both shall see God's glory in His Son, whom you mistook as flesh, and bound to laws that have NO power over him at all."

T24G11 "In its eyes, you are a separate universe, with all the power to hold itself complete within itself, with every entry shut against intrusion, and every window barred against the light."

T24G12 "Now you are merely asked that you pursue another goal with far LESS vigilance, with little effort and with little time, and with the power of God maintaining it, and promising success."

T24G12 "Yet, to the dedication to the truth as GOD established it, NO sacrifice is asked, NO strain called forth, and all the power of Heaven and the might of truth itself is given to provide the means, and GUARANTEE the goal's accomplishment."

T25C11 "Nothing has power over you EXCEPT His Will AND yours, who but EXTEND His Will."

T25C11 "To each of you is given the power of salvation, that escape from darkness into light be yours to share, that you may see as one what never HAS been separate, nor apart from ALL His Love as given equally."

T25D8 "The Maker of the world of gentleness has perfect power to offset the world of violence and hate that SEEMS to stand BETWEEN you and His gentleness."

T25D10 "And he HAS the power to think he CAN BE hurt."

T25F6 "Against the hatred that the Son of God may cherish toward himself is God believed to be without the power to save what He created from the pain of hell."

T25G1 "And, being IN ACCORD with what God wills, he HAS the power to heal and bless all those he looks on with the grace of God upon his sight."

T25H6 "The Holy Spirit HAS the power to change the whole foundation of the world you see to something else; a basis NOT insane, on which a sane perception can be based, another world perceived."

T25I9 "BECAUSE they are the same, does mercy stand at God's right Hand, and GIVE the Son of God the power to forgive HIMSELF of sin."

T25I12 "You can be perfect witness to the power of love AND justice, if you understand it is impossible the Son of God COULD merit vengeance."

T25J7 "To keep it for yourself to solve WITHOUT His help is to decide it should remain UNsettled, UNresolved, and lasting in its power of injustice and attack."

T26A1 "The body is ITSELF a sacrifice; a giving up of power, in the name of saving just a little for yourself."

T26B6 "You who would make a sacrifice of life, and make your eyes and ears bear witness to the death of God and of His holy Son, think not that you have power to make of them what God willed not they be."

T26E5 "For no-one hears the song of Heaven, and remains without a voice that adds its power to the song, and makes it sweeter still."

T26F9 "No past illusions have the power to keep you in a place of death, a vault God's Son entered an instant, to be instantly restored unto His Father's Perfect Love."

T26G1 "NOT because it has the power to hurt, but just because YOU have denied it is but an illusion, AND MADE IT REAL."

T26G1 "All belief in sin, in power of attack, in hurt and harm, in sacrifice and death, has come to you."

T26G2 "But God has given him a better Friend, in whom all power in earth and Heaven rests."

T26H15 "For you HAVE power to save the Son of God, because his Father willed that it be so."

T26H16 "To use the power God has given you as He would have it used is natural."

T26H16 "But it IS arrogant to LAY ASIDE the power that He gave, and choose a little, senseless wish instead of what He wills."

T27B2 "The power of witness is beyond belief, because it brings conviction in its wake."

T27B9 "Let it receive the power to represent an endless life, forever unattacked."

T27C5 "The power of witness COMES from your belief."

T27C5 "It is THIS testimony that can speak with power greater than a thousand tongues."

T27C6 "This call has power FAR beyond the weak and miserable cry of death and guilt."

T27D1 "Power can NOT oppose."

T27D1 "For opposition would WEAKEN it, and weakened power is a contradiction in ideas."

T27D1 "And power used to weaken is EMPLOYED to limit."

T27D1 "Power is UNopposed, to be itself."

T27D3 "There is nothing to attack or to deny; to love or hate, or to endow with power or to see as weak."

T27D4 "Unweakened Power, with NO opposite, is what creation IS."

T27D5 "Forgiveness is not yet a Power known as wholly free of limits."

T27D7 "A Power wholly limitless has come, NOT to destroy, but to RECEIVE Its Own."

T27D7 "Yet only this APPEARS to interfere with power unlimited and SINGLE thoughts, complete and happy, WITHOUT opposite."

T27D7 "You do not know the peace of power which opposes NOTHING."

T27D7 "Give welcome to the Power beyond forgiveness, and beyond the world of symbols and of limitations."

T27F9 "And thus the power of your learning will be PROVED to you, by all the many DIFFERENT witnesses it finds."

T27I7 "You have NO power to make the body stop its evil deeds, because you did NOT make it, and can NOT control its actions, or its purpose, or its fate."

T29B2 "Thus do you ENDOW it with a power that lies NOT within itself."

T29B2 "And herein lies its power over you."

T29C2 "And, being healed, the power to heal must ALSO now be yours."

T29C9 "And so it seems to be a thing with power IN ITSELF."

T29D4 "Whom you forgive is GIVEN power to forgive you your illusions."

T29G3 "But you can NOT remove the Power to change your mind, and see ANOTHER purpose there."

T29H6 "You try to see in it a place of idols, found outside yourself, with power to make complete what is within by splitting what you are BETWEEN the two."

T29H7 "And idols do what you would have them do, and HAVE the power you ascribe to them."

T29H7 "And you pursue them vainly in the dream, because you want their power as your own."

T29I1 "That is the only power which they have."

T29I2 "They have the power to supply your lacks, and add the value which you do not have."

T29I4 "A dark and fearful purpose, yet a thought without the power to change one blade of grass from something living to a sign of death."

T29I5 "It must be believed BEFORE it seems to come to life, and GIVEN power that it may be feared."

T29I5 "Its life and power are its believer's gift, and this is what the miracle restores to what HAS life and power worthy of the gift of Heaven and eternal peace."

T29I6 "This is the anti-Christ; the strange idea there is a power PAST omnipotence, a place BEYOND the infinite, a time transcending the eternal."

T29I6 "Here the world of idols has been set by the idea this power and place and time are given form, and shape the world where the impossible has happened."

T29J1 "For willing he MUST be, to let himself bow down in worship to what has no life, and seek for power in the powerless."

T29J4 "They pretend they rule the world, and give their toys the power to move about, and talk and think and feel, and speak for them."

T30C5 "And no-one walks upon the earth but must depend on YOUR decision, that he learn death HAS no power over him because he shares YOUR freedom, as he shares your will."

T30D4 "Creation gives no SEPARATE person and no SEPARATE thing the power to complete the Son of God."

T30E5 "Attack HAS power to make illusions real."

T30E5 "Who could be made fearful by a power that can have no REAL effects at all?"

T30E6 "What can the power of illusions DO?"

T30G5 "There would be one mistake which had the power to UNDO creation, and to make a world which could REPLACE it and DESTROY the Will of God."

T30G8 "Forgiveness rests on recognizing this, and being GLAD there cannot be some forms of sickness which the miracle must LACK the power to heal."

T30G9 "But what you see as having power to make an idol of the Son of God, you will NOT pardon."

T30I4 "For you have ASKED it be withheld from power to heal all dreams."

T30I6 "But do not give it power to REPLACE the changeless in him in your sight of him."

T31A3 "No-one who understands what you have learned, how carefully you learned it, and the pains to which you went to practice and repeat the lessons endlessly, in every form you could conceive of them, could EVER doubt the power of your learning skill."

T31A3 "There is no greater power in the world."

T31A3 "For your power to learn is strong enough to teach you that your will is NOT your own; your thoughts do NOT belong to you; and even YOU are someone else."

T31A6 "His simple lessons in forgiveness have a power mightier than yours, because they call from God and from your Self to you."

T31A6 "And the power of His Will is in the Voice That speaks for Him."

T31C4 "It has no power to learn, to pardon, or enslave."

T31D5 "For while he sees a choice where there is none, what power of decision can he use?"

T31D5 "The great RELEASE of power must begin with learning where it really HAS a use."

T31D5 "And what decision has power, if it be applied in situations without choice?"

T31D7 "There IS a choice which you have power to make, when you have seen the real alternatives."

T31D7 "This course attempts to teach no more than that the power of decision cannot lie in choosing different forms of what is still the SAME illusion and the SAME mistake."

T31G12 "For vision CAN but represent a wish, because it has NO power to create."

T31H1 "It sets the limits on what he can do; its power is the only strength he has; his grasp cannot exceed its tiny reach."

T31H2 "Simply by never using weakness to direct your actions, you have given it no power."

T31H3 "His holiness is yours because He is the ONLY power that is real in you."

T31H4 "They will redeem the world, for they are joined to all the power of the Will of God."

T31H7 "Deny me not the little gift I ask, when in exchange I lay before your feet the peace of God, and power to bring this peace to everyone who wanders in the world, uncertain, lonely, and in constant fear."

W20L3 "His will is done because all power is given him in Heaven and on earth."

W38L1 "And there is nothing the power of God cannot do."

W38L2 "It is equal in its power to help anyone, because it is equal in its power to save anyone."

W38L3 "In today's exercises, we will apply the power of your holiness to all problems, difficulties, or suffering in any form that you happen to think of in yourself or someone else."

W38L5 "You might like, for example, to include thoughts such as: "There is nothing my holiness cannot do because the power of God lies in it.""

W41L2 "The idea for today has the power to end all this foolishness forever."

W42L1 "It is His strength, not your own, that gives you power."

W44L10 "And do not forget that they cannot hold you to the world unless you give them the power to do so."

W53L4 "Let me remember the power of my decision, and recognize where I really abide."

W54L1 "Neutral thoughts are impossible because all thoughts have power."

W54L4 "It is therefore in my power to change every mind along with mine, for mine is the power of God."

W58L3 "My holiness is unlimited in its power to heal, because it is unlimited in its power to save."

W61L3 "It is a positive assertion of your right to be saved, and an acknowledgment of the power that is given you to save others."

W62L3 "It will restore the invulnerability and power God gave His Son to your awareness."

W63L1 "How holy are you who have the power to bring peace to every mind!"

W69L6 "Your little effort and small determination call on the power of the universe to help you, and God Himself will raise you from darkness into light."

W69L7 "Then let the power of God work in you and through you, that His Will and yours may be done."

W73L1 "The will you share with God has all the power of creation in it."

W73L1 "The ego's idle wishes are unshared, and therefore have no power at all."

W73L10 "Then let your will assert itself, joined with the power of God and united with your Self."

W75L8 "Rejoice in the power of forgiveness to heal your sight completely."

W80R23 "Realize that, whatever form they take, they have no meaning and no power."

W80R24 "Do not forget that your will has power over fantasies and dreams."

W85L6 ""This has no power to remove salvation from me.""

W87L2 "I will use the power of my will today."

W88L5 "I am constantly tempted to make up other laws, and give them power over me."

W93L5 "What power can this self you made possess, when it would contradict the Will of God?"

W95L9 "This tolerance for weakness will enable us to overlook it, rather than give it power to delay our learning."

W95L9 "If we give it power to do this, we are regarding it as strength, and are confusing strength and weakness."

W95L11 "They are attempts to keep you unaware you are One Self, united with your Creator, at one with every aspect of creation, and limitless in power and in peace."

W95L11 "Begin the longer practice periods with this assurance, given to your mind with all the certainty that you can give: "I am One Self, united with my Creator, At one with every aspect of creation, And limitless in power and in peace.""

W99L12 "You have a special message for today which has the power to remove all forms of doubt and fear forever from your mind."

W100L8 "What little thought has power to hold you back?"

W102L2 "Today we try to loose its weakened hold still further and to realize that pain is purposeless, without a cause, and with no power to accomplish anything."

W106L1 "If you will lay aside the ego's voice however loudly it may seem to call; if you will not accept its petty gifts which give you nothing that you really want; if you will listen with an open mind which has not told you what salvation is; then you will hear the mighty Voice of truth, quiet in power, strong in stillness, and completely certain in Its messages."

W132L17 "Throughout the day, increase the freedom sent through your ideas to all the world, and say whenever you are tempted to deny the power of your simple change of mind: "I loose the world from all I thought it was, And choose my own reality instead.""

W135L2 "A sense of threat is an acknowledgment of an inherent weakness; a belief that there is danger which has power to call on you to make appropriate defense."

W136L14 "Truth has a power far beyond defense, for no illusions can remain where it has been allowed to enter."

W137L2 "It gives the body final power to make separation real and keep the mind in solitary prison, split apart and held in pieces by a solid wall of sickened flesh which it can not surmount."

W167L9 "When the mind elects to be what it is not, and to assume an alien power which it does not have, a foreign state it cannot enter, or a false condition not within its Source, it merely seems to go to sleep a while."

W170L7 "We need not defy his power."

W171L2 " 152) "The power of decision is my own.""

W188L6 "It alone has power to give the gift of sight to you."
