There are many examples of how the [[ego]]'s [[interpretations]] are misleading, but a few will suffice to show how the Holy Spirit can reinterpret them in his own [[light]].

"As ye sow, so shall ye reap" [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=The_Letter_of_Paul_to_the_Galatians#The_Letter_of_Paul_to_the_Galatians.2C_VI] he [[interprets]] to mean what you consider worth cultivating you will cultivate in yourself. Your [[judgment]] of what is [[worthy]] makes it worthy for you.

"[[Vengeance]] is mine, sayeth the Lord" [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Book_of_Deuteronomy#Chapter_.32] is easily reinterpreted if you remember that [[ideas]] increase only by being [[shared]]. The statement emphasizes that vengeance cannot be shared. Give it therefore to the [[Holy Spirit]], Who will undo it in you because it does not belong in your [[mind]], which is part of God.

"I will visit the sins of the fathers unto the third and fourth generation," [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Book_of_Numbers#Chapter_.14] as [[interpreted]] by the [[ego]], is particularly vicious. It becomes merely an attempt to guarantee the ego's own [[survival]]. To the Holy Spirit, the statement means that in later [[generations]] he can still reinterpret what former generations had misunderstood, and thus release the [[thoughts]] from the [[ability]] to produce fear.

"The wicked shall perish" [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Book_of_Psalms#Psalm_37] becomes a statement of [[Atonement]], if the word "perish" is understood as "be undone." Every loveless [[thought]] must be undone, a [[word]] the ego cannot even [[understand]]. To the ego, to be undone means to be destroyed. The ego will not be destroyed because it is part of your thought, but because it is uncreative and therefore unsharing, it will be reinterpreted to release you from [[fear]]. The part of your mind that you have given to the ego will merely return to [[the kingdom|the Kingdom]], where your whole mind belongs. You can delay the completion of the Kingdom, but you cannot introduce the concept of [[fear]] into it.

You need not [[fear]] the higher [[court]] will [[condemn]] you. It will merely dismiss the case against you. There can be no case against a [[child of God]], and every witness to guilt in God's creations is bearing false witness to God himself. [[Appeal]] everything you believe gladly to God's own higher court, because it speaks for him and therefore speaks truly. It will dismiss the case against you, however carefully you have built it up. The case may be [[fool]]-[[proof]], but it is not God-proof. The [[Holy Spirit]] will not hear it, because he can only witness truly. His [[verdict]] will always be "thine is the Kingdom," because he was given to you to remind you of what you are.

When I said "I am come as a [[light]] into the world," [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Gospel_of_john#Chapter_12] I meant that I came to [[share]] the light with you. Remember my [[reference]] to the ego's dark glass, and remember also that I said, "Do not look there. "It is still true that where you look to find yourself is up to you. Your [[patience]] with your brother is your patience with yourself. Is not a child of God worth patience? I have shown you [[infinite]] patience because my will is that of [[our Father]], from Whom I learned of infinite patience. [[Ta|His voice was in me as It is in you]], speaking for patience towards [[the Sonship]] in the Name of its [[Creator]].

Now you must [[learn]] that only infinite [[patience]] produces immediate [[effects]]. This is the way in which [[time]] is exchanged for [[eternity]]. Infinite patience calls upon infinite [[love]], and by producing results ''now'' it renders time unnecessary. We have repeatedly said that time is a [[learning]] device to be abolished when it is no longer useful. The [[Holy Spirit]], Who speaks for God in time, also knows that time is meaningless. He reminds you of this in every passing [[moment]] of time, because it is his special [[function]] to return you to [[eternity]] and remain to [[bless]] your creations there. He is the only blessing you can truly give, because he is truly blessed. Because he has been given you freely by God, you must give him as you [[received]] him.
