T16H11 "The truth lies here, AND NOWHERE ELSE."
T17A2 "What you use in fantasy, you DENY to truth."
T17A2 "But what you GIVE to truth, to use FOR you, is SAFE from fantasy."
T17B1 "When you maintain that there MUST be order of difficulty in miracles, all you mean is that there are some things you would WITHHOLD from truth."
T17B1 "You believe that truth cannot deal with them, ONLY because YOU would keep them FROM truth."
T17B2 "And so you learn to deal with PART of truth in one way, and in ANOTHER way the OTHER part."
T17B2 "To FRAGMENT truth is to DESTROY it by rendering it meaningless."
T17B2 "Think you that you can bring truth to fantasy, and learn what truth MEANS from the perspective of illusions?"
T17B3 "Truth HAS no meaning in illusion."
T17B3 "When you try to bring TRUTH to illusions, you are trying to MAKE THEM REAL, and KEEP them by JUSTIFYING your belief in them."
T17B3 "But to give illusions to Truth is to enable truth to teach that the ILLUSIONS are unreal, and thus enable you to ESCAPE from them."
T17B3 "Reserve not one idea aside from truth, or you ESTABLISH orders of reality which MUST imprison you."
T17B4 "Be willing, then, to give ALL you have held OUTSIDE the truth to Him Who KNOWS the truth, and in Whom all is brought to truth."
T17B4 "And you are holding BOTH of you AWAY from truth, and from salvation."
T17B4 "As you FORGIVE him, you RESTORE to truth what was denied by BOTH OF YOU."
T17C2 "Nothing is hidden here, for everything has BEEN forgiven, and there ARE no fantasies to hide the truth."
T17D3 "WITHOUT EXCEPTION, these relationships have, AS THEIR PURPOSE, the EXCLUSION of the truth about the other, AND OF YOURSELF."
T17D11 "And what is thus let go, is all the truth the past could ever OFFER to the present, as witnesses for ITS reality, while what is KEPT, but witnesses to the reality of dreams."
T17D12 "It is still up to you to choose to be willing to join with truth or illusion."
T17D12 "The spark of beauty, or the veil of ugliness; the real world, or the world of guilt and fear; truth or illusion; freedom or slavery, - it is all the same."
T17D13 "This is the truth that I would interpose, between you and your goal of madness."
T17E3 "You have VERY REAL relationships, even in this world, which you do not recognize, simply because you have raised their SUBSTITUTES to such predominance that, when truth calls to you, as it does constantly, YOU ANSWER WITH A SUBSTITUTE."
T17E3 "Every special relationship which you have ever undertaken has, as its fundamental purpose, the aim of occupying your minds so completely that YOU WILL NOT HEAR the call of truth."
T17E4 "This Blessing holds, WITHIN ITSELF, the truth about everything."
T17E4 "And the truth is that the Holy Spirit IS in close relationship with you, because, in Him, is your relationship with God restored to you."
T17E10 "That is why the holy instant is so important in the defense of truth."
T17E10 "The truth itself NEEDS no defense, but YOU DO need defense against your own ACCEPTANCE of the gift of death."
T17E10 "When you who ARE truth, accept an idea so DANGEROUS to truth, YOU THREATEN TRUTH WITH DESTRUCTION."
T17E10 "And YOUR defense must now be undertaken, TO KEEP TRUTH WHOLE."
T17F14 "You stand together in the holy Presence of Truth Itself."
T17G4 "It is quite noticeable that THIS approach has brought you closer to the Holy Spirit's SORTING OUT of truth and falsity."
T17G5 "The goal of truth has further practical advantages."
T17G5 "If the situation is used for truth and sanity, its outcome MUST be peace."
T17G5 "For if peace is the CONDITION of truth and sanity, and CANNOT be WITHOUT them, where peace is, they MUST be."
T17G5 "Truth comes of itself."
T17G5 "If you experience PEACE, it is because the truth HAS come to you."
T17G6 "The goal of truth REQUIRES FAITH."
T17G6 "Where the goal of truth is set, there faith MUST be."
T17G7 "Except that this attempt CONFLICTS WITH UNITY, and MUST obscure the goal of truth."
T17G7 "Truth has NOT come, because faith has been DENIED, being WITHHELD from where it rightfully belonged."
T17G7 "Thus do you LOSE the understanding of the situation the goal of truth would bring."
T17G7 "For fantasy solutions bring but the ILLUSION of experience, and the illusion of peace is NOT the condition in which the truth can enter."
T17H1 "But if the goal is TRUTH, this is impossible."
T17H2 "Faithlessness brought to faith, will never interfere with truth."
T17H2 "But faithlessness used AGAINST truth will ALWAYS destroy faith."
T17H4 "The GOAL of illusion is as closely tied to faithlessness, as faith to truth."
T17H4 "If you lack faith in ANYONE to fulfill, AND PERFECTLY, his part in ANY situation dedicated IN ADVANCE to truth, YOUR dedication is divided."
T17H6 "What never was is causeless, and IS NOT THERE to interfere with truth."
T17H7 "The light of truth shines from the center of the situation, and touches everyone to whom the situation's purpose calls."
T17H8 "And you will see the means you once employed to lead you to illusions, transformed to means for truth."
T17H8 "Truth calls for faith, and faith makes room FOR TRUTH."
T17H8 "You whose relationship SHARES the Holy Spirit's goal, are SET APART from loneliness, because the truth has come."
T17I1 "It calls forth just the same SUSPENSION of faithlessness, withheld and left UNUSED, that faith might answer to the call of truth."
T17I2 "Let Truth be what it is."
T17I2 "Not even faith is asked of you, for Truth asks nothing."
T17I3 "The strain of REFUSING faith to truth is enormous, and far greater than you realize."
T17I3 "But to ANSWER truth with faith entails no strain at all."
T17I4 "And it was nothing but the intolerable strain of your refusal to give faith to truth, and see its evident reality."
T17I6 "When you accepted truth as the goal for your relationship, you became givers of peace, as surely as your Father gave peace to YOU."
T18B1 "That ONE error, which brought truth to illusion, infinity to time, and life to death, was all you ever made."
T18B3 "The world arose to hide it, and became the screen on which it was projected, and drawn between you and truth."
T18B3 "For truth extends INWARD, where the idea of loss is meaningless, and only INCREASE is conceivable."
T18B3 "For truth brought to THIS could only remain within in quiet, and take no part in all the mad projection by which this world was made."
T18B4 "THE TRUTH WILL SAVE YOU."
T18B4 "You but BELIEVE it is the other way; that truth is OUTSIDE, and error and guilt within."
T18B6 "The Holy Spirit takes you gently by the hand, and retraces WITH you your mad journey OUTSIDE yourself, leading you gently back to the truth and safety within."
T18B6 "He brings all your insane projections and your wild substitutions which YOU have placed OUTSIDE you, to the truth."
T18B6 "In your relationship where He has taken charge of everything at your request, He has set the course inward, to the truth you SHARE."
T18B7 "Here is holy ground, in which no substitutes can enter, and where only the TRUTH about each other can abide."
T18B7 "Here is the radiant truth, to which the Holy Spirit submitted your relationship."
T18B8 "You are so firmly joined in truth, that only God is there."
T18B9 "Heaven has answered quietly, for all illusions have been gently brought unto the truth in you, and Love has shined upon you, blessing your relationship with truth."
T18B9 "How lovely and how holy is your relationship, with the truth shining upon it!"
T18C2 "They are the best example you could have of how perception can be utilized to substitute illusions for truth."
T18C10 "Your relationship has become one in which the wish has been REMOVED, because its purpose has been changed from one of dreams to one of truth."
T18C10 "You are so used to choosing between dreams, you do not see that you have made, at last, the choice between the truth and ALL ILLUSIONS."
T18C11 "Its coming means that you have chosen truth, and it has come, because you have been willing to let your special relationship meet its conditions."
T18C11 "For, as your sleeping and your waking dreams represent the same wishes in YOUR mind, so do the real world and the truth of Heaven join in the Will of God."
T18D1 "You who have spent your lives in bringing truth to illusion, reality to fantasy, HAVE walked the way of dreams."
T18D1 "And you sought a blackness so complete that you could hide from truth forever, in complete insanity."
T18D2 "As the light comes nearer, you WILL rush to darkness, shrinking from the truth, sometimes retreating to the lesser forms of fear, and sometimes to stark terror."
T18D2 "But you WILL advance, because your goal IS the advance from fear to truth."
T18D2 "Truth has rushed to meet you, since YOU called upon it."
T18D6 "YOU WILL NOT SEPARATE for I stand with you, and walk with you in your advance to truth."
T18E8 "You are still convinced YOUR understanding is a powerful contribution to the truth, and MAKES IT WHAT IT IS."
T18F1 "If you already UNDERSTOOD the difference between truth and illusion, Atonement would HAVE no meaning."
T19A1 "We said before that, when a situation has been dedicated WHOLLY to truth, peace is inevitable."
T19A1 "But we also said that peace without faith will NEVER be attained, for what is WHOLLY dedicated to truth as its ONLY goal is BROUGHT to truth by faith."
T19B1 "The body thus becomes the instrument of illusion, acting accordingly, seeing what is not there, HEARING what truth has never said, and BEHAVING INSANELY, being imprisoned BY insanity."
T19B2 "And the body WILL seem to be sick, for you have made of it an "enemy" of healing, and the OPPOSITE of truth."
T19B3 "Faithlessness is wholly dedicated to illusions; faith wholly to truth."
T19B4 "Truth is the ABSENCE of illusion; illusion the ABSENCE of truth."
T19B5 "They ARE together, and when they are SEEN together, ALL attempts to KEEP both truth AND illusion in the mind, where both MUST be, are recognized as DEDICATION TO ILLUSION."
T19B5 "And GIVEN UP when BROUGHT to truth, and seen as totally UNRECONCILABLE with truth, in ANY aspect, or in any WAY."
T19B6 "Truth and illusion HAVE no connection."
T19B6 "But ILLUSIONS are ALWAYS connected, AS IS TRUTH."
T19B7 "For this concealment SEEMS to keep your identification safe from the "attack" of truth."
T19B14 "For faith brings peace, and so it calls on truth to enter and make lovely, what has already BEEN prepared for loveliness."
T19B14 "Truth FOLLOWS faith and peace, completing the process of making lovely that they begin."
T19B14 "*But Truth will stay forever."
T19C4 "A MAJOR tenet in the ego's insane religion is that sin is NOT error, but TRUTH."
T19C4 "Or is it rather an attempt to wrest creation AWAY from truth, and keep it separate?"
T19C7 "If this is a MISTAKE, it can be undone easily by truth."
T19C7 "ANY mistake can be corrected, if TRUTH be left to judge it."
T19C7 "But, if the mistake is given the STATUS of truth, to what CAN it be brought?"
T19C7 "As TRUTH, it IS inviolate, and everything is brought to IT for judgment."
T19C7 "As a MISTAKE, IT must be brought to truth."
T19C8 "For this IS its reality; this is the "truth," from which escape will ALWAYS be impossible."
T19E7 "And in the goal of truth, which YOU ACCEPTED, must ALL illusions end."
T19E10 "How mighty can a little feather be, before the great wings of truth?"
T19F1 "It is the NATURE of love to look upon ONLY the truth, for there it sees itself, with which it would unite in holy union and completion."
T19G7 "From your holy relationship, Truth proclaims the truth, and Love looks on itself."
T19J5 "For death is seen as SAFETY, the great dark savior from the light of truth, the answer to the Answer, the silencer of the Voice that speaks for God."
T19J10 "And they may thus mean everything or nothing, according to the truth or falsity of the IDEA which they reflect."
T19L1 "IT would not have you see its weakness and learn it has NO power to KEEP you from the truth."
T20A1 "This is Palm Sunday, the celebration of victory, and the ACCEPTANCE of the truth."
T20B1 "Let no dark signs of crucifixion intervene between the journey and its purpose; between the ACCEPTANCE of the truth and its EXPRESSION."
T20D1 "Who need adjust to truth, which calls upon only what he IS, to understand?"
T20D3 "The holy do not interfere with truth."
T20D7 "There IS a stranger in him, who wandered carelessly into the home of Truth, and who will wander off."
T20D8 "This one wild thought, fierce in its arrogance and yet so tiny and so meaningless it slips unnoticed through the universe of truth, becomes your guide."
T20D8 "And ADJUST to it as if it were the truth?"
T20G10 "Its firm foundation is eternally upheld by truth, and love shines on it with the gentle smile and tender blessing it offers to its own."
T20H4 "And BOTH must be undone, for purposes of truth."
T20H6 "Here are illusions NEVER brought to truth, and ALWAYS hidden from it."
T20I2 "Truth is restored to you through your desire, as it was lost to you through your desire for something ELSE."
T20I5 "Why would you rather look on IT, than on the truth?"
T21C5 "Be willing, then, to have it taken FROM him, and be replaced with truth."
T21C8 "All that is asked of you is to MAKE ROOM for truth."
T21C13 "Yet the truth is you were both created by a loving Father, Who created you together and as one."
T21D2 "If you ACCEPT this change, you have accepted the IDEA of making room for truth."
T21E3 "A holy relationship is one in which you join with what IS part of you in TRUTH."
T21F10 "Faith and perception and belief can be misplaced, and serve the great deceiver's needs, as well as truth."
T21G6 "How can a fact be fearful, unless it DISAGREES with what you hold more dear than truth?"
T21G7 "For reason, kind as is the purpose for which it is the means, leads steadily AWAY from madness, toward the goal of truth."
T21G8 "And here you will lay down the burden of DENYING truth."
T21G8 "THIS is the burden that is terrible, and NOT the truth."
T21H6 "And do I WANT to see what I denied, BECAUSE it is the truth?""
T21H7 "And this imagined difference attests to your belief that TRUTH may be the enemy you yet may find."
T21H8 "Forget not that the choice of truth or sin, power or helplessness, IS the choice of whether to attack or HEAL."
T21H10 "But truth is CONSTANT, and implies a state where vacillations are impossible."
T21I1 "Yet he did NOT desire it BECAUSE it was the truth, and therefore MUST be constant."
T22A4 "He denies NOT his own reality BECAUSE it is the truth."
T22B6 "And what YOUR sight will show you, you will understand BECAUSE it is the truth."
T22B10 "Such did his reason tell him; such he believed BECAUSE it is the truth."
T22B11 "And truth came instantly to show you where your self MUST be."
T22B11 "It is denial of ILLUSIONS that calls on truth."
T22C1 "The OPPOSITE of illusions is not disillusionment, but truth."
T22C1 "Only to the ego, to which TRUTH is meaningless, do they APPEAR to be the only alternatives, and DIFFERENT from each other."
T22C1 "In truth, they are the SAME."
T22C1 "Yet, in these dark and heavy garments, are those who SEEK illusions covered, and hidden from the joy of truth."
T22C1 "Truth is the opposite of illusions, BECAUSE it offers joy."
T22C3 "Yet, if the change be real and not IMAGINED, illusions MUST give way to truth, and not to other dreams which are but equally unreal."
T22C4 "Truth is the same and misery the same, but they ARE different from each other."
T22C4 "ONE illusion, cherished and defended AGAINST the truth, makes ALL truth meaningless and ALL illusions real."
T22C10 "Is it not welcome news to hear NOT ONE of the illusions that you made REPLACED the truth?"
T22C11 "And would you not exchange, in gratitude and gladness, the function of an executioner YOU gave him, for the one he has in truth?"
T22D5 "To this distorted form of vision, the OUTSIDE of everything, the wall that stands between you and the truth, is wholly true."
T22D7 "And must perceive illusions AS THE TRUTH."
T22D7 "Could it, then, RECOGNIZE the truth?"
T22E8 "This veil you lift together opens the way to truth to more than you."
T22F1 "And how CAN it be difficult to walk the way of truth, when only WEAKNESS interferes?"
T22F2 "ALWAYS to justify what GOES AGAINST the truth, flies in the face of reason, AND MAKES NO SENSE."
T22F2 "What can this be, except an invitation to insanity, to save you FROM the truth?"
T22F3 "In truth, you stand together, with NOTHING in between."
T22F5 "This force IS irresistible in truth."
T22F6 "And not one that truth can NOT pass over lightly, and so easily that you MUST be convinced, in spite of what you THOUGHT it was, that it was nothing."
T22G15 "And therefore it is necessary that you have OTHER experiences, more in line with truth, to teach you what IS natural and true."
T22G17 "Let TRUTH decide if you be different or the same, and TEACH you which is true."
T23A3 "Nothing they see is harmful, for their AWARENESS of the truth releases everything from the illusion of harmfulness."
T23A4 "Think what a happy world you walk, with truth beside you!"
T23B5 "But truth can never be forgotten by ITSELF."
T23B6 "There IS no conflict between them and the TRUTH."
T23B6 "Illusions CANNOT triumph over truth, nor can they threaten it in any way."
T23B7 "Truth does not fight against illusion, nor do illusions fight against the truth."
T23B7 "But truth is indivisible, and FAR beyond their little reach."
T23B7 "And truth stands radiant, APART from conflict, untouched and quiet, in the peace of God."
T23B12 "Illusion meets illusion; truth, itself."
T23C1 "Yet they APPEAR to constitute an obstacle to reason and to truth."
T23C1 "It IS essential it be understood what they are FOR, because it is their PURPOSE to make meaningless, and to ATTACK the truth."
T23C2 "The first chaotic law is that the truth is different for everyone."
T23C3 "For this establishes degrees of TRUTH among illusions, making it appear that some are HARDER to be overcome than others."
T23C3 "When brought to truth, instead of TO EACH OTHER, they merely disappear."
T23C3 "No PART of nothing CAN be more resistant to the truth than can another."
T23C6 "It is not seen as even necessary that He be asked about the truth of what has been established for His belief."
T23C15 "It is the FUNCTION of insanity to TAKE THE PLACE of truth."
T23C15 "It must be seen AS truth, to be believed."
T23C15 "And, if it IS the truth, then must its opposite, which was the truth before, be madness now."
T23C17 "In truth, it does NOT function, yet in dreams, where ONLY shadows play the major roles, it seems most powerful."
T23C22 "Each is a different form in the progression of truth's reversal, leading still deeper into terror, and AWAY from truth."
T23E2 "EVERY illusion is an assault on truth."
T23E2 "And every one does violence to the IDEA of love, because it SEEMS to be of equal truth."
T23E2 "What can be EQUAL to the truth, yet different?"
T23E6 "How can the truth of miracles be RECOGNIZED, if murder is your choice?"
T24A2 "The truth arises from what He knows."
T24B9 "Those who are special MUST defend illusions against the truth."
T24C2 "To value specialness is to esteem an alien will, to which illusions of yourself ARE dearer than the truth."
T24C3 "They chose their specialness INSTEAD of Heaven and INSTEAD of peace, and wrapped it carefully in sin, to keep it "safe" from truth."
T24C4 "If you think you are, and would defend your specialness against the truth of what you REALLY are, how can you know the truth?"
T24C5 "To every special one a DIFFERENT message, and one with DIFFERENT meaning, is the truth."
T24C5 "Yet how CAN truth be different to each one?"
T24C6 "And all the world he made, and all his specialness, and all the sins he held in its defense AGAINST himself, will vanish as his mind accepts the truth about himself, as it returns to take their place."
T24C6 "This is the only "cost" of truth."
T24C7 "Nor will you CHANGE his function, any more than you can change the truth in him and in yourself."
T24C7 "But be you certain that the truth is just the same in both."
T24C7 "What is one IS joined in truth."
T24C9 "Here, in this holy place, does truth stand waiting to receive you both in silent blessing, and in peace so real and so encompassing that NOTHING stands outside."
T24C11 "And ONLY specialness could make the truth of God and you AS One seem anything BUT Heaven."
T24C13 "Here are the gates of hell you closed upon yourself, to rule in madness and in loneliness your special kingdom, APART from God, AWAY from truth and from salvation."
T24D3 "Truth is not frail."
T24D3 "But specialness is NOT the truth in you."
T24E4 "This shift in purpose DOES "endanger" specialness, but only in the sense that all illusions are "threatened" by the truth."
T24E5 "Your brother's "sins" would justify itself, and GIVE it meaning that the truth denies."
T24F3 "The Christ in you looks ONLY on the truth, and sees no condemnation that could NEED forgiveness."
T24G5 "Let not his specialness obscure the truth in him, for not one law of death you bind him to will YOU escape."
T24G7 "Yet will you choose in countless situations, and through time which seems to have no end, until the truth be your decision."
T24G7 "And where is God Himself but in that part of Him He set forever in your brother's holiness, that YOU might see the truth about yourself set forth at last in terms you recognized and understood?"
T24G11 "And all this grim determination was for this: YOU WANTED SPECIALNESS TO BE THE TRUTH."
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."
T24H3 "Seek not to make your specialness the truth, for, if it were, you would be lost indeed."
T24H3 "Be thankful, rather, it is given you to see his holiness BECAUSE it is the truth."
T24H4 "Weave rather, then, a frame of holiness around him, that the truth may shine in him, and give YOU safety from decay."
T24H5 "Whatever is perceived as means for truth SHARES in its holiness, and rests in light as safely as Itself."
T24H11 "For, as His Son's creation gave HIM joy, and witness to HIS Love and shared HIS Purpose, so does the body testify to the idea that made it, and speak for ITS reality and truth."
T24H12 "And thus does his perception serve his wish, by giving it APPEARANCES of truth."
T25B5 "NOT that it is the truth, but that the link that has been given you to JOIN the truth may reach to you through what you understand."
T25B5 "Father and Son and Holy Spirit are as One, as all your brothers join as one in truth."
T25B7 "And It must use all learning to transfer illusions TO the truth, taking all FALSE ideas of what you are, and leading you BEYOND them to the truth that IS beyond them."
T25D9 "But to FORGIVE it is to change its state from error into truth."
T25E6 "How better could your OWN mistakes be brought to truth than by your willingness to bring the light of Heaven with you, as you walk BEYOND the world of darkness into light?"
T25F1 "And no-one COULD believe in one unless the other were the truth, for each attests the other MUST be true."
T25F4 "If you decide against his proper function, the ONLY one he really has in truth, you are depriving him of all the joy he WOULD have found if he fulfilled the role God gave to him."
T25H4 "And what is madness CANNOT be the truth."
T25H5 "And if he chooses to believe ONE thought OPPOSED to truth, he has decided he is NOT his Father's Son, because the Son is mad, and sanity must lie apart from both the Father AND the Son."
T25H6 "Who could create the changeless, if it does NOT rest on truth?"
T25H7 "But sin is equally insane within the sight of love, whose gentle eyes would look BEYOND the madness, and rest peacefully on truth."
T25H7 "Each sees a world immutable, as each defines the changeless and eternal truth of what YOU are."
T25H13 "And on this single rock of truth can faith in God's eternal saneness rest, in perfect confidence and perfect peace."
T25H14 "And this is sane BECAUSE it is the truth."
T25I7 "Yet justice cannot punish those who ask for punishment, but have a Judge Who knows that they are wholly innocent in truth."
T25J1 "You mean that truth has greater value now than ALL illusions."
T25J1 "And you recognize that truth must be REVEALED to you, because YOU know not what it IS."
T26B3 "What witness to the wholeness of God's Son is seen within a world of separate bodies, however much he witnesses to truth?"
T26B4 "Those who would see the witnesses to truth INSTEAD of to illusion merely ask that they might see a PURPOSE in the world that gives it sense and makes it meaningful."
T26C2 "One mistake is NOT more difficult for Him to bring to truth than is another."
T26D1 "He knows of ONE creation, ONE reality, ONE truth, and but ONE Son."
T26D1 "The truth is simple; it is one, WITHOUT an opposite."
T26D1 "The truth makes NO decisions, for there is nothing to decide BETWEEN."
T26D2 "Here is the meeting place where thoughts are brought TOGETHER; where conflicting values MEET, and ALL illusions are laid down beside the truth, where they are judged to be untrue."
T26D3 "And yet there is a contradiction here, in that the words imply a LIMITED reality, a PARTIAL truth, a SEGMENT of the universe made true."
T26D4 "But what is truth to him must be brought to the last comparison that he will ever make; the last evaluation that will be possible, the final judgment upon this world."
T26D4 "It is the judgment of the truth upon illusion, of knowledge on perception; IT HAS NO MEANING AND DOES NOT EXIST."
T26E4 "Where sin once was perceived will rise a world which will become an altar to the truth."
T26F4 "Each thing you look upon you saw but for an instant, long ago, before its unreality gave way to truth."
T26F7 "Is this a HINDRANCE to the truth the past has gone, and CANNOT be returned to you?"
T26G1 "For who can choose to keep the ones which he prefers, and find the safety that the truth alone can give?"
T26G2 "And what illusion CAN replace the truth?"
T26G3 "And it is he who is your ONLY Friend in truth."
T26H2 "NOT in truth, but in the world of shadows and illusions BUILT on sin."
T26H2 "Yet is truth unchanged."
T26H2 "Brought to truth, its senselessness is quite apparent."
T26H2 "Kept APART from truth, it SEEMS to have a meaning and be real."
T26H2 "Perception's laws are OPPOSITE to truth, and what IS true of knowledge is NOT true of ANYTHING that is apart from it."
T26H4 "Perception's laws must be reversed, because they ARE reversals of the laws of truth."
T26H4 "The laws of truth FOREVER will be true, and cannot BE reversed; yet can be SEEN as upside down."
T26H4 "It is impossible that one illusion be LESS amenable to truth than are the rest."
T26H4 "But it IS possible that some are given greater VALUE, and less willingly OFFERED to truth for healing and for help."
T26H4 "NO illusion has ANY truth in it."
T26H5 "What relevance has preference to the truth?"
T26H5 "And ANY wish that SEEMS to go AGAINST His Will has NO foundation in the truth."
T26H6 "And truth needs NO defense to make it true."
T26H9 "What is forgiveness, but a willingness that truth be true?"
T26H14 "The miracle but calls your ancient name, which you WILL recognize because the truth is in your memory."
T26H17 "And by this little gift of truth but let to be itself; the Son of God allowed to be himself, and all creation freed to call upon the Name of God as one."
T27B3 "IT witnesses to the eternal truth that you can not BE hurt, and points BEYOND itself to both YOUR innocence and HIS."
T27B9 "Then will it send forth the message it received, and by its health and loveliness proclaim the truth and value that it represents."
T27C2 "Forgiveness is NOT pity, which but seeks to pardon what it knows to be the truth."
T27D4 "An empty space that is NOT seen as filled, an unused interval of time NOT seen as spent and fully occupied, become a silent invitation to the truth to enter, and to make Itself at home."
T27D4 "For what you leave as vacant GOD will fill, and where HE is, there MUST the truth abide."
T27D4 "Nothing points BEYOND the truth, and what can stand for MORE than everything?"
T27D5 "Forgiveness is the means by which the truth is represented TEMPORARILY."
T27G3 "You do not MAKE a witness true, because you called him by truth's NAME."
T27G3 "The truth is found in him IF IT IS TRUTH HE REPRESENTS."
T27G7 "And Truth WILL be revealed to you who chose to let Love's symbols TAKE THE PLACE of sin."

W94L3 "Today we will again devote the first five minutes of each waking hour to the attempt to feel the truth in you."

W99L6 "This is the Thought Which brings illusions to the truth, and sees them as appearances behind which is the changeless and the sure."
W99L11 "Forgive all thoughts which would oppose the truth of your completeness, unity and peace."

W101L8 "This is the truth because there is no sin.""
W103L2 "These images, with no reality in truth, bear witness to the fear of God, forgetting being Love."
W103L2 "This basic error we will try again to bring to truth today, and teach ourselves: "God, being Love, is also happiness."

W104L4 "And we would wish for nothing else, for nothing else belongs to us in truth."
W104L5 "This reminder will we bring to mind as often as we can: "I seek but what belongs to me in truth."
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."

W107L9 "Then let Him lead you gently to the truth which will envelop you and give you peace so deep and tranquil that you will return to the familiar world reluctantly."
W107L10 "For you will bring with you the promise of the changes which the truth that goes with you will carry to the world."
W107L11 "Each time you tell yourself with confidence, "Truth will correct all errors in my mind," you speak for all the world, and Him Who would release the world as He would set you free."
W108L4 "Here are both giving and receiving seen as different aspects of one Thought Whose truth does not depend on which is seen as first, nor which appears to be in second place."
W108L5 "For these are but some special cases of one law which holds for every kind of learning, if it be directed by the One Who knows the truth."
W108L8 "So we begin the practice periods with the instruction for today, and say: "To give and to receive are one in truth."

W132L13 "Deny illusions, but accept the truth."

W134L1 "Let us review the meaning of "forgive," for it is apt to be distorted and to be perceived as something which entails an unfair sacrifice of righteous wrath, a gift unjustified and undeserved, and a complete denial of the truth."

W134L2 "All truth belongs to Him, reflects His laws and radiates His Love."

W134L5 "It merely is a further sign that sin is unforgivable, at best to be concealed, denied, or called another name, for pardon is a treachery to truth."
W134L6 "It does not countenance illusions, but collects them lightly, with a little laugh, and gently lays them at the feet of truth."
W134L7 "Forgiveness is the only thing that stands for truth in the illusions of the world."
W134L7 "It looks on them with quiet eyes, and merely says to them, "My brother, what you think is not the truth.""

W134L8 "It is because of this that it becomes the undeceiver in the face of lies, the great restorer of the simple truth."
W134L8 "By its ability to overlook what is not there, it opens up the way to truth, which had been blocked by dreams of guilt."
W134L10 "Thus will you see alternatives for choice in terms which render choosing meaningful, and keep your mind as free of guilt and pain as God Himself intended it to be, and as it is in truth."
W134L10 "In truth is innocence the only thing there is."
W134L10 "Forgiveness stands between illusions and the truth, between the world you see and that which lies beyond, between the hell of guilt and Heaven's gate."
W134L11 "Across this bridge, as powerful as Love Which laid Its blessing on it, are all dreams of evil and of hatred and attack brought silently to truth."
W135L11 "These are the thoughts in need of healing, and the body will respond with health when they have been corrected and replaced with truth."
W135L15 "They are the means by which a frightened mind would undertake its own protection at the cost of truth."
W135L18 "Defenses are the plans you undertake to make against the truth."
W135L20 "Let no defenses but your present trust direct the future, and this life becomes a meaningful encounter with the truth that only your defenses would conceal."
W135L22 "We make no plans for how it will be done, but realize that our defenselessness is all that is required for the truth to dawn upon our minds with certainty."
W135L23 "For fifteen minutes twice today we rest from senseless planning, and from every thought which blocks the truth from entering our minds."
W135L25 "And in the light and joy of simple truth, you will but wonder why you ever thought that you must be defended from release."
W135L27 "I will not defend myself, Because the Son of God needs no defense Against the truth of his Reality.""
W136L1 "It dispels this meaningless illusion by the same approach which carries all of them to truth, and merely leaves them there to disappear."
W136L2 "The aim of all defenses is to keep the truth from being whole."
W136L3 "They are secret magic wands you wave when truth appears to threaten what you would believe."
W136L7 "It is a choice you make, a plan you lay when, for an instant, truth arises in your own deluded mind, and all your world appears to totter and prepare to fall."
W136L7 "Now are you sick, that truth may go away, and threaten your establishments no more."
W136L7 "How do you think that sickness can succeed in shielding you from truth?"
W136L7 "Because it proves the body is not separate from you, and so you must be separate from the truth."
W136L9 "Thus is the body stronger than the truth, which asks you live but cannot overcome your choice to die."
W136L10 "And you believe that Heaven quails before such mad attacks as these, with God made blind by your illusions, truth turned into lies, and all the universe made slaves to laws which your defenses would impose on it."
W136L10 "Who else can see them and react to them as if they were the truth?"
W136L11 "You can but choose to think you die, or suffer sickness or distort the truth in any way."
W136L12 "Such is the simple truth."
W136L13 "For it lets you think what God has given you is not the truth right now, as it must be."
W136L13 "For time is but another meaningless defense you made against the truth."
W136L14 "Truth has a power far beyond defense, for no illusions can remain where it has been allowed to enter."
W136L14 "It is found at any time; today, if you will choose to practice giving welcome to the truth."
W136L15 "And we will give a quarter of an hour twice to ask the truth to come to us and set us free."
W136L15 "And truth will come, for it has never been apart from us."
W136L15 "We introduce it with a healing prayer to help us rise above defensiveness, and let the truth be as it has always been: "Sickness is a defense against the truth."
W136L15 "I will accept the truth of what I am, And let my mind be wholly healed today.""
W136L16 "Healing will flash across your open mind as peace and truth arise to take the place of war and vain imaginings."
W136L16 "There will be no dark corners sickness can conceal and keep defended from the light of truth."
W136L19 "Sickness is a defense against the truth, But I am not a body."
W137L3 "Sickness would prove that lies must be the truth."
W137L3 "But healing demonstrates that truth is true."
W137L4 "To be healed is merely to accept what always was the simple truth, and always will remain exactly as it has forever been."
W137L4 "So healing, never needed by the truth, must demonstrate that sickness is not real."
W137L5 "Healing might thus be called a counter-dream which cancels out the dream of sickness in the name of truth, but not in truth itself."
W137L5 "Just as the real world will arise to take the place of what has never been at all, healing offers restitution for imagined states and false ideas which dreams embroider into pictures of the truth."
W137L7 "Just as forgiveness shines away all sin, and the real world will occupy the place of what you made, so healing must replace the fantasies of sickness which you hold before the simple truth."
W137L8 "Healing is freedom, for it demonstrates that dreams will not prevail against the truth."
W137L11 "For here is truth bestowed, and here are all illusions brought to truth."
W137L12 "Today we ask that only truth will occupy our minds; that thoughts of healing will this day go forth from what is healed to what must yet be healed, aware that they will both occur as one."
W138L2 "It is this strange perception of the truth which makes the choice of Heaven seem to be the same as the relinquishment of hell."
W138L2 "Truth cannot come where it could only be perceived with fear, for this would be the error truth can be brought to illusions."
W138L2 "Opposition makes the truth unwelcome, and it cannot come."
W138L4 "And when that one is made, you will perceive it was no choice at all, for truth is true and nothing else is real."
W138L4 "There is no contradiction to the truth."
W138L5 "But the truth cannot be learned but only recognized."
W138L5 "Decisions are the outcome of your learning, for they rest on what you have accepted as the truth of what you are and what your needs must be."
W138L6 "Here is the final and the only choice in which is truth accepted or denied."
W138L8 "It must be saved from salvation, threatened to be safe, and magically armored against truth."
W138L9 "All that is veiled in shadows must be raised to understanding to be judged again, this time with Heaven's help, and all mistakes in judgment which the mind had made before are open to correction as the truth dismisses them as causeless."
W138L11 "We recognize we make a conscious choice between what has existence and what has nothing but an appearance of the truth."
W139L5 "But you have split your mind into what knows and does not know the truth."
W139L10 "Today accept Atonement, not to change reality, but merely to accept the truth about yourself, and go your way rejoicing in the endless Love of God."
W139L11 "We can remember it for everyone, for in creation are all minds as one, and in our memory is the recall how dear our brothers are to us in truth, how much a part of us is every mind, how faithful they have really been to us, and how our Father's Love contains us all."
W140L3 "His happy dreams are heralds of the dawn of truth upon the mind."
W140L6 "It is merely an appeal to truth, which cannot fail to heal and heal forever."
W140L7 "The mind that brings illusions to the truth is really changed."
W140L10 "Today we hear a single Voice Which speaks to us of truth where all illusions end, and peace returns to the eternal quiet home of God."
W140R41 "Now a review again, this time aware we are preparing for the second part of learning how the truth can be applied."
W140R42 " This is a fact and represents the truth of What you are and What your Father is."
W140R44 "Your self-deceptions cannot take the place of truth."
W146L1 " 131) "No one can fail who asks to reach the truth.""
W148L2 " 136) "Sickness is a defense against the truth.""
W151L3 "You think your fingers touch reality and close upon the truth."
W151L10 "His lessons will enable you to bridge the gap between illusions and the truth."
W151L12 "He will select the elements in them that represent the truth, and disregard those aspects which reflect but idle dreams."
W151L14 "And then we watch our thoughts, appealing silently to Him Who sees the elements of truth in them."
W151L15 "And as each thought is thus transformed, it takes on healing power from the Mind Which saw the truth in it, and failed to be deceived by what was falsely added."
W151L18 "Now has our ministry begun at last, to carry 'round the world the joyous news that truth has no illusions, and the peace of God, through us, belongs to everyone."
W152L2 "Yet can truth have exceptions?"
W152L3 "Truth must be all-inclusive if it be the truth at all."
W152L3 "Accept no opposite and no exceptions, for to do so is to contradict the truth entirely."
W152L3 "Salvation is the recognition that the truth is true and nothing else is true."
W152L3 "Truth cannot have an opposite."
W152L3 "For if what is not true is true as well as what is true, then part of truth is false, and truth has lost its meaning."
W152L3 "Nothing but the truth is true, and what is false is false."
W152L4 "And thus the truth appears to have some aspects which belie consistency, but do not seem to be but contradictions introduced by you."
W152L5 "This is the all-inclusiveness which sets the truth apart from falsehood, and the false kept separate from the truth as what it is."
W152L7 "To think that God made chaos, contradicts His Will, invented opposites to truth, and suffers death to triumph over life, all this is arrogance."
W152L9 "But truth is humble in acknowledging its mightiness, its changelessness and its eternal wholeness, all-encompassing, God's perfect gift to His beloved Son."
W152L11 "Now do we join in glad acknowledgment that lies are false and only truth is true."
W152L11 "We think of truth alone as we arise, and spend five minutes practicing its ways, encouraging our frightened minds with this: "The power of decision is my own."
W152L12 "He will substitute the peace of God for all your frantic thoughts, the truth of God for self-deceptions, and God's Son for your illusions of yourself."
W153L10 "God's ministers have chosen that the truth be with them."
W153L14 "And then we go to take our rightful place where truth abides and games are meaningless."
W155L2 "To let illusion walk ahead of truth is madness, but to let illusion sink behind the truth, and let the truth stand forth as what it is, is simple sanity."
W155L3 "They cannot learn directly from the truth, because they have denied that it is so."
W155L3 "And so they need a Teacher Who perceives their madness, but Who still can look beyond illusion to the simple truth in them."
W155L4 "If truth demanded they give up the world, it would appear to them as if it asked the sacrifice of something that is real."
W155L6 "Now can the truth, which walks ahead of you, speak to them through illusion, for the road leads past illusion now, while on the way you call to them that they may follow you."
W155L7 "All this steps back as truth comes forth in you, to lead your brothers from the ways of death, and set them on the way to happiness."
W155L7 "Yet they need a guide to lead them out of it, for they mistake illusion for the truth."
W155L8 "It asks that you accept the truth, and let It go before you, lighting up the path of ransom from illusion."
W155L9 "And you may find that you are tempted still to walk ahead of truth, and let illusion be your guide."
W155L9 "Your holy brothers have been given you to follow in your footsteps, as you walk with certainty of purpose to the truth."
W155L10 "Yet at the journey's ending there will be no gap, no distance between truth and you."
W155L10 "And all illusions walking in the way you travelled will be gone from you as well, with nothing left to keep the truth apart from God's completion, holy as Himself."
W155L10 "Step back in faith, and let truth lead the way."
W155L11 "There will be no wish to be illusion rather than the truth."
W155L11 "And we step forth toward this, as we progress along the way that truth points out to us."
W155L11 "For as truth goes before us so it goes before our brothers, who will follow us."
W155L12 "The truth that walks before us now is One with Him, and leads us to where He has always been."
W156L1 "Today's idea but states the simple truth which makes the thought of sin impossible."
W156L2 "Truth must be true throughout if it be true."
W157L8 "But the Holy One, the Giver of the happy dreams of life, Translator of perception into truth, the holy Guide to Heaven given you, has dreamed for you this journey, which you make and start today, with the experience, this day holds out to you to be your own."
W159L10 "His dream awakens us to truth."
W160L2 "There is a stranger in our midst, who comes from an idea so foreign to the truth he speaks a different language, looks upon a world truth does not know, and understands what truth regards as senseless."
W161L4 "Such is the truth."
W162L3 "His dreams are happy and his rest secure; his safety certain and his body healed, because he sleeps and wakens with the truth before him always."
W162L3 "He will save the world because he gives the world what he receives each time he practices the words of truth."
W164L1 "What time but now can truth be recognized?"
W165L1 "What makes this world seem real except your own denial of the truth which lies beyond?"
W166L3 "He must deny their presence, contradict the truth, and suffer to preserve the world he made."
W166L7 "You go on your appointed way, with eyes cast down lest you might catch a glimpse of truth, and be released from self deception and set free."
W167L1 "There are not different kinds of life, for life is like the truth."
W167L3 "Its truth established you as one with God."
W167L7 "As such, it can be reconciled with what created it, because it is not opposite in truth."
W167L10 "Let us today be children of the truth, and not deny our holy heritage."
W169L1 "Grace is an aspect of the Love of God which is most like the state prevailing in the Unity of truth."
W169L4 "And yet we urge you to bear witness to the Word of God to hasten the experience of truth, and speed its advent into every mind which recognizes its effects on you."
W169L13 "How could you finally attain to it forever, while a part of you remains outside, unknowing, unawakened and in need of you as witness to the truth?"
W170R510 "We practice but an ancient truth we knew before illusion seemed to claim the world."
W184L4 "This is the way reality is made by partial vision, purposefully set against the given truth."
W184L12 "All names are unified; all space is filled with truth's reflection."
W184L13 "But first you must accept One Name for all reality, and realize the many names you gave its aspects have distorted what you see but have not interfered with truth at all."
W184L15 "And we accept the truth You give in place of every one of them."
W185L3 "For minds can only join in truth."
W185L12 "It is this attribute which sets the gifts of God apart from every dream that ever seemed to take the place of truth."
W186L6 "Sin can not tarnish the truth in you, and misery can come not near the holy home of God."
W187L1 "The truth maintains that giving will increase what you possess."
W188L5 "He forgives because he recognized the truth in him."
W190L3 "Pain is a sign illusions reign in place of truth."
W190L10 "Pain is deception; joy alone is truth."
W190L11 "And so again we make the only choice that ever can be made; we choose between illusions and the truth, or pain and joy, or hell and Heaven."
W191L4 "In this one truth are all illusions gone."
W193L4 "No one can hide forever from a truth so very obvious that it appears in countless forms, and yet is recognized as easily in all of them, if one but wants to see the simple lesson there."
W193L11 "Truth is His message; truth His teaching is."
W194L8 "For thus you call the memory of Him to come again, replacing all your thoughts of sin and evil with the truth of love."
W196L2 "It may, in fact, appear to be a sign that punishment can never be escaped because the ego, under what it sees as threat, is quick to cite the truth to save its lies."
W196L2 "Yet must it fail to understand the truth it uses thus."
W196L3 "For the ways in which the ego would distort the truth will not deceive you longer."
W198L2 "To condemn is thus impossible in truth."
W198L3 "It is not itself the truth."
W198L3 "Yet does it point to where the truth must be, and gives direction with the certainty of God Himself."
W198L8 "Dreams of any kind are strange and alien to the truth."
W198L8 "Yet what but Truth could have a Thought Which builds a bridge to truth which brings illusions to the other side?"
W198L9 "The truth bestows these words upon your mind, that you may find the key to light and let the darkness end: "Only my condemnation injures me."
W199L1 "If this were the truth, the mind were vulnerable indeed!"
W200L6 "In truth it has no function and does nothing, for it is unknown in Heaven."
W200R63 "Beyond this, and a repetition of the special thought we practice for the day, no form of exercise is urged, except a deep relinquishment of everything that clutters up the mind, and makes it deaf to reason, sanity and simple truth."
W220IN21 "For now we seek direct experience of truth alone."
W220IN29 "And so we start upon the final part of this one holy year, which we have spent together in the search for Truth and God, Who is Its one Creator."
W220IN210 "And we believed that our insane desires were the truth."
W220W14 "But he who would forgive himself must learn to welcome truth exactly as it is."
W222L1 "How still is he who knows the truth of what He speaks today!"
W224L1 "It is the Truth."
W226L1 "For I have not sought for illusions to replace the truth."
W227L1 "Now I give them up, and lay them down before the feet of truth, to be removed forever from my mind."
W229L1 "And what I look upon attests the truth of the identity I sought to lose, but which my Father has kept safe for me."
W231L1 "What else could I desire but the truth about myself?""
W237L1 "Today I will accept the truth about myself."
W239L1 "Let not the truth about ourselves today be hidden by a false humility."
W240W31 "When the thought of separation has been changed to one of true forgiveness, will the world be seen in quite another light; and one which leads to truth, where all the world must disappear, and all its errors vanish."
W240W33 "They see in its illusions but a solid base where truth exists, upheld apart from lies."
W240W33 "Yet everything which they report is but illusion which is kept apart from truth."
W240W34 "As sight was made to lead away from truth, it can be redirected."
W243L2 "We are one because each part contains Your memory, and truth must shine in all of us as one.""
W244L2 "And there we are in truth."
W247L1 "Let me accept what His sight shows me as the simple truth, and I am healed completely."
W248L1 "I have disowned the truth."
W248L1 "What dies was never living in reality, and did but mock the truth about myself."
W250W41 "It is the means by which the mind is driven mad, and seeks to let illusions take the place of truth."
W250W41 "And being mad, it sees illusions where truth should be, and where it really is."
W250W41 "And truth can be but filled with knowledge, and with nothing else."
W250W42 "Truth can be its aim as well as lies."
W251L1 "But now I see that I need only truth."
W252L2 "Reveal It now to me who am Your Son, that I may waken to the truth in You, and know that Heaven is restored to me.""
W254L1 "I have no prayer but this: I come to You to ask You for the truth."
W254L1 "And truth is but Your Will, Which I would share with You today.""
W255L1 "And let the peace I choose be mine today bear witness to the truth of what He says."
W260W53 "For only love creates in truth, and truth can never fear."
W260W55 "Your safety lies in truth and not in lies."
W262L2 "We who are one would recognize this day the truth about ourselves."
W269L1 "And through His lessons to surpass perception and return to truth."
W270L1 "The world forgiven signifies Your Son acknowledges his Father, lets his dreams be brought to truth, and waits expectantly the one remaining instant more of time, which ends forever as Your memory returns to him."
W270W63 "This is the only part of you that has reality in truth."
W270W64 "The Holy Spirit reaches from the Christ in you to all your dreams, and bids them come to Him, to be translated into truth."
W271L1 "Each day, each hour, every instant, I am choosing what I want to look upon, the sounds I want to hear, the witnesses to what I want to be the truth for me."
W272L1 ""Father, the truth belongs to me."
W274L1 "Through this as well the truth will enter where illusions were, light will replace all darkness, and Your Son will know he is as You created him.""
W277L2 "And he can not be bound unless God's Truth can lie, and God can will that He deceive Himself."
W278L1 "For truth is free, and what is bound is not a part of truth."
W278L2 ""Father, I ask for nothing but the truth."
W278L2 "For truth is safe and only love is sure.""
W279L1 "Yet in reality his dreams are gone, with truth established in their place."
W280L1 "I can invent imprisonment for him, but only in illusions, not in truth."
W280W71 "The Holy Spirit mediates between illusions and the truth."
W280W71 "As He must bridge the gap between reality and dreams, perception leads to knowledge through the grace that God has given Him, to be His gift to everyone who turns to Him for truth."
W280W71 "Across the bridge that He provides are dreams all carried to the truth, to be dispelled before the light of knowledge."
W280W72 "And when this is entirely accomplished, learning has achieved the only goal it has in truth."
W280W72 "For learning, as the Holy Spirit guides it to the outcome He perceives for it, becomes the means to go beyond itself, to be replaced by the Eternal Truth."
W282L1 "This the determination not to be asleep in dreams of death, while truth remains forever living in the joy of life."
W282L2 "Such is the truth."
W282L2 "And can the truth be changed by merely giving it another name?"
W282L2 "Let me not be afraid of truth today.""
W284L1 "Such is the truth, at first to be but said, and then repeated many times, and next to be accepted as but partly true, with many reservations, then to be considered seriously more and more, and finally accepted as the truth."
W284L1 "And I would go beyond the words today, go past all reservations, and arrive at full acceptance of the truth in them."
W284L2 "Let me not fail to trust in You today, accepting but the joyous as Your gifts; accepting but the joyous as the truth.""
W287L2 "And what except the memory of You could signify to me the end of dreams and futile substitutions for the truth?"
W290W85 "Now He waits but that one instant more for God to take His final step, and time has disappeared, taking perception with it as it goes, and leaving but the Truth to be Itself."
W303L2 "He is but what I really am in truth."
W305L1 "And all the world departs in silence, as this peace envelops it, and gently carries it to truth, no more to be the home of fear."
W307L1 "Your Son is one with You in being and in will, and nothing contradicts the holy truth that I remain as You created me.""
W311L1 "Judgment was made to be a weapon used against the truth."
W319L1 "Here is a thought from which all arrogance has been removed, and only truth is left."

W320W113 "Creation is the opposite of all illusions, for Creation is the truth."
W325L2 ""Our Father, Your Ideas reflect the truth, and mine apart from Yours but makes up dreams."
W325L2 "Let me behold what only Yours reflect, for Yours and Yours alone establish truth.""
W329L1 "Yet what I am in truth is but Your Will, extended and extending."
W331L1 "Death is illusion; life, Eternal Truth."
W332L1 "Truth undoes its evil dreams by shining them away."
W332L1 "Truth never makes attack."
W333L1 "For only then are its defenses lifted, and the truth can shine upon it as it disappears."
W335L1 "What I see in him is merely what I wish to see, because it stands for what I want to be the truth."
W336L1 "Forgiveness sweeps away distortions, and opens the hidden altar to the truth."
W340W132 "And thus it illustrates the law of truth the world does not obey, because it fails entirely to understand its ways."
W340W132 "Now is perception open to the truth."
W342L1 "Let me remember that I am Your Son, and opening the door at last, forget illusions in the blazing light of truth, as memory of You returns to me.""
W347L1 "He sees what I behold, and yet He knows the truth."
W350W142 "The truth of what we are is not for words to speak of or describe."

W357L1 ""Forgiveness, truth's reflection, tells me how to offer miracles, and thus escape the prison house in which I think I live."

W360FL2 "Let us together follow in this way that truth points out to us."
W360FL4 "He is the way, the truth and life that show the way to us."
W360FL5 "And is a Father angry at His Son because he failed to understand the truth?"
W365EP2 "And thus He speaks of freedom and of truth."
M1A5 "And then they are seen no more, although their thoughts remain a source of strength and truth forever."
M3A2 "Atonement corrects illusions, not truth."

T25C3 "Is it not ALSO true that you have found some hope APART from this; some glimmering, inconstant, wavering, yet dimly seen, that hopefulness IS warranted, on grounds that are NOT in this world?"

T25H4 "If ONE belief so deeply valued here were true, then every Thought God ever had is an illusion."
T25H4 "And if but ONE Thought of His is true, then ALL beliefs the world gives ANY meaning to are false, and make no sense at all."

T25I8 "What can Love ask of you who think that all of this is true?"
T25I12 "You need NOT perceive, in every circumstance, that this is true."
T25J3 "And this MUST be true BECAUSE He asks no sacrifice of anyone."
T26C2 "If THIS were true, then God WOULD be unfair; sin WOULD be possible, attack be justified, and vengeance fair."
T26C3 "It does injustice to the Son of God, and therefore is not true."
T26D6 "Where ALL reality has been withdrawn from what was NEVER true, can it BE hard to give it up, and choose what MUST be true?"

T26F10 "They come from what is past and gone, but hinder not the true existence of the here and now."

T26H12 "God wills you learn what always has been true."
T26H12 "That he created you as part of Him, and this must still be true BECAUSE ideas leave not their source."
T26H12 "This is as true of what is idly wished as what is truly willed, because the mind can wish to be deceived, but CANNOT make it be what it is not."
T26H12 "And to believe ideas can leave their source is to invite illusions to be true, WITHOUT SUCCESS."
T26H17 "But it CAN make what always has been true be RECOGNIZED by those who know it not."
T27B4 "BECAUSE it proves illusions were not true."
T27B7 "If this were true, there WOULD be reason to remain content to seek for passing joys, and cherish little pleasures where you can."
T27C3 "For no-one in whom true forgiveness reigns CAN suffer."
T27D4 "Yet true undoing must be kind, and so the first replacement for your picture is ANOTHER picture, of ANOTHER kind."

T27I4 "That this is all the BODY does, is true."
T27I10 "No matter what the form of the attack, this STILL is true."
T27I10 "Whatever seems to be the cause of any pain and suffering you feel, this is STILL true."
T27I13 "The one thing that is impossible is that you be UNLIKE each other; that they BOTH be true."
T28C7 "The miracle establishes you dream a dream, and that its content is not true."
T28H5 "Yet all it means is that you tried to keep a promise to be true to faithlessness."
T29E1 "They are dreams BECAUSE they are not true."
T29J2 "Judge not, because you make yourself a PART of evil dreams, where idols are your "true" identity, and your salvation from the judgment laid, in terror and in guilt, upon yourself."
