In the dream, nobody ever forgives and nobody ever condemns.
It is realized that only a lie about The Self (projected out) condemns, and looks for false witnesses to join its condemnation of ItSelf, by making up a real judger who condemns.
Truth forgives the lie about the Self, not because it’s looking for future salvation, but because only the Truth is true, and anything else appearing to convince The Self that lies are true, is simply overlooked.
Jesus is a symbol of Perfect Forgiveness. Nobody real exists within the dream. All are but symbols.
Only forgiveness can forgive the dream. Only love can forgive the dream.
Only peace can forgive the dream.
Only Completion forgives the dream. Only salvation forgives the dream. Only the atonement forgives the dream. Only the correction of perception can forgive the dream. Nobody in the dream forgives, because there is no one real who condemns.
Without forgiveness, condemnation of the Self seems to continue to arise. And this condemnation just seems to happen, for no one. But, to the one that believes in the lie of Self, will seem to suffer the worst fear and guilt (seemingly).
Is there a willingness and ready-ness arising to see that the lie of True Self is not true, in order to have the Truth of Self reveal ItSelf?
