It has already been said that you [[believe]] you cannot [[control]] [[fear]] because you yourself made it, and your belief in it seems to render it out of your control. Yet any attempt to resolve the [[error]] through attempting the mastery of fear is useless. In [[fact]], it asserts the power of fear by the very [[assumption]] that it need be mastered. The true resolution rests entirely on [[Lesson on Self-Mastery|mastery]] through [[love]]. In the interim, however, the sense of conflict is [[inevitable]], since you have placed yourself in a position where you believe in the power of what does not exist.

Nothing and everything cannot coexist. To [[believe]] in one is to [[deny]] the other. Fear is really [[nothing]] and [[love]] is [[everything]]. Whenever [[light]] enters [[darkness]], the darkness is abolished. What you believe is true for you. In this sense the [[separation]] has occurred, and to deny it is merely to use denial inappropriately. However, to [[concentrate]] on [[error]] is only a further error. The initial corrective procedure is to recognize temporarily that there is a [[problem]], but only as an indication that immediate [[correction]] is needed. This establishes a state of mind in which the [[Atonement]] can be [[accepted]] without [[delay]]. It should be emphasized, however, that ultimately no [[compromise]] is possible between everything and nothing. [[Time]] is essentially a device by which all compromise in this respect can be given up. It only seems to be abolished by [[degrees]], because time itself involves [[intervals]] that do not exist. Miscreation made this [[necessary]] as a corrective device. The statement "For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life" [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Gospel_of_John#Chapter_3] needs only one slight correction to be meaningful in this [[context]]; "He gave it to his only begotten son."

It should especially be noted that [[God]] has only one son. If all his [[creations]] are his sons, every one must be an integral part of the whole sonship. The sonship in its oneness [[transcends]] the sum of its [[parts]]. However, this is obscured as long as any of its [[parts]] is missing. That is why the [[conflict]] cannot ultimately be resolved until all the parts of the sonship have returned. Only then can the [[meaning]] of [[wholeness]] in the true sense be understood. Any part of the sonship can believe in [[error]] or incompleteness if he so chooses. However, if he does so, he is believing in the [[existence]] of nothingness. The correction of this error is the [[Atonement]].
