I AM THAT I AM.



 Any method of thinking, apart from the conscious knowledge of possessing now the ChristMind, to which "all things are possible," cannot deliver the full peace of God, nor the true, as well as lasting satisfaction to be found in the Master's statement, "I AM the Way: I AM the Truth: I AM the Life."
"I will instruct and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go." Psalm 32:8

Therefore, come out from among unbelievers, and separate yourselves from them, says the LORD. Don't touch their filthy things, and I will welcome you. 2 Corinthians 6:17

Examine yourselves to see if your faith is genuine. Test yourselves. Surely you know that Jesus Christ is among you; if not, you have failed the test of genuine faith. 2 Corinthians 13:5

Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need. Matthew 6:33

Now you can say,
"I know that I AM! I know that my health, my harmony, my perfection, my happiness, and my abundance of every good are not located in my body or in my affairs, but only in my real Self-myself awake-the I-Am-Self. Here abide my unalterable, undefilable health and wholeness; my perfect spiritual senses and their distinct activities; my ever conscious awareness of Reality as all there is; and my complete experience of every good thing.

When you make a declaration, affirmation or statement of what you wish to do, or what you desire to bring to pass, remember this paramount fact: spiritual things must be spiritually conceived and brought forth. Therefore, when you think, do not feel that it is a human mind you are using with which to bring about some special good, but as the man of God, the I-Am-Self, know that you are thinking with the Christ-Mind and you will inevitably bring forth what is rightfully yours. Then your Word, spoken as by the divine Mind, is your authority that it shall not return to you void, but shall go forth and multiply your good. This was Jesus' authority, and likewise may be yours. You are consciously at-one with the divine Mind to the degree that you see, feel and express it, and believe in no other. Acting in the knowledge that this Mind is all-knowing and to it all things are revealed, state or declare your wish or need, and leave it with this Mind to fulfill, or bring to pass.

"I AM the real Man, at-one with the Father," is the cry of the soul singing its way into the full realization that "All power in heaven and in earth is given unto Me."

To repeat: The Mind of Spirit should be considered the only Mind, and you should relate yourself to it by your recognition of it as the real and the true, and hence the very Mind which you are using now with which to think your good and true thoughts. You should also see and acknowledge that this Mind is Power, is Light, is Wisdom and is Love which never faileth.

How am I to know that what I wish is right and best for me to have in my present experience? You cannot really know unless you are aware that you are associating yourself only with the divine Mind, and so from the standpoint of this Mind your desire must be right. This is why, first of all, you should identify yourself with that state called the Christ or the I-Am-Self, for he is ever one with God, and to him all good is possible.

We are to raise our eyes (vision) to Heaven, Reality. We are to get a new and true viewpoint. Here on earth is where you should, and can, multiply your good. Here on earth, with spiritual awareness and right vision, is where you may bring to pass your heart's desire: for the spiritual ideas,-Wealth, Abundance and Prosperity,-stand back of all your desires for supply, and so may be brought into visible form to the degree that you see them as they are, acknowledge and accept them.

You are not intended to experience death, but only life. You are God's perfect man exactly where you stand: you need only to feel this, and live in harmony with it, and you will begin experiencing it." Truly until one comes to see himself as he is, he will never leave a far country of dreams and fables. When you come to yourself, you see who you are, and seeing this you naturally see what body you have, what universe you live in, what power you make use of, what Mind you utilize and what Life you are living, feeling and experiencing. With such transformation of sense and view there also appears a corresponding transfiguration of body and affairs.

I AM THAT I AM.

There is but the one I AM THAT I AM. There is not one big "I" and millions of smaller "i's." One Life is all there is, even as one air is all the air there is. This one I AM THAT I AM includes granite heights, crystals, trees, flowers, birds, animals, man, and all created things. Surrender, therefore, the ifs, buts, whys and wherefores for this absolute state of yourself -your radiant I - AM, ever the Self-revealing Light.

Attempting to heal physical bodies or spiritualize human mentalities metaphysically, or by right thinking, overlooks the paramount fact that all discord, limitation and imperfection are totally unreal, because untrue! The eternal, real and true conditions already exist in the one Christ state, to be seen, accepted and utilized wherever vision is clarified sufficiently to thus behold the omnipresent Christ-Man.
