You Are Already Safe and Already Perfect (why God does not protect the body) [1]
You can protect the body or the mind, but not both. God, Knowing this, protects you by not protecting what He Knows needs no protection. This is why He offers no protection to your body.
God Is, and therefore only Protects, the Mind. For God Is Mind. Another word often used is Spirit. And in this context, these are the same. God Is and only Protects the Mind and the Spirit.
The body is Satan’s and therefore only Satan protects it.[1]
Soon this distinction will be much easier to understand thanks to what you call “quantum physics” or “quantum mechanics.” This branch of what you call “science” is revealing the truth and importance of this distinction. And that is the distinction between the physical and non-physical, between the body and non-body, between form and the formless, between the phenomenal and noumenal[2] realms.
Quantum Physics is revealing that there is no form, that there is no physical reality. Form itself, the body itself…is but a representation of the mind, a reflection – a ripple – of it. Form does not determine mind. Mind determines form. The world does not cause your ideas and beliefs. Your ideas and beliefs cause the world. Thus does God not protect what He Knows to be unreal and incapable of protecting at all.
Your brother can kill you only because what you believe yourself to be can be killed.
What are you? Are you a body? If so, you will die. And thus, you will fear death. Surely you see this isn’t your brother’s fault. This is because of your belief, this is because of your idea of what you are.
Satan, agreeing with you, offers to protect your illusion. He offers his armies and police who defeat and punish evil. He offers his healers who give magical pills. He offers you idols that compete for your devotion.[3] He offers you leaders that promise protection. And he gives you walls and a roof that you call home.
All of these he offers you…in exchange for your soul.
He offers these to you in exchange for your Knowledge of Reality, in exchange for your Knowledge of What You Are. This is true only because to believe you need protection is to NOT know what you are. To believe you need protection is to be unaware of Reality. For in Reality, you are only Love. You are a reflection, a ripple, of the Thought of Creation and The Mind of God. You are Eternal because Love is Eternal. And you have Eternal Life because only illusions can die.
Thus does God protect you By Creating You. Thus does God protect you By Loving You. What Created by God and Loved by God could ever need protection?
And thus is Freedom Experienced.
For Here is the obvious choice, the choice to Believe what you want to believe. Are you a body? Or are you Love? Has God protected you? Or do you Fear? Are you in Heaven? Or are you in Hell? Do you worship God? Or do you worship Satan?
Satan demands your worship and devotion. God only Loves you. Satan tells you to be afraid and that there is much to Fear. God only Loves you. Satan points at Evil and screams of its power. God only Loves you. Satan trembles at your power and demands you choose now. God only Loves you.
The pattern will become clearer and clearer as you begin to Listen for God and finally understand His Mind. God does not protect you because He Loves You. God does not save you because He Loves You. For God Knows, even when you do not, that what God Loves needs no protection and needs no salvation. For what God Loves is already safe and already Perfect.
[1] I use “Satan” synonymously with “Ego” and am not referring to the “Satan” of the Christian Church. This is explained thoroughly in the journals so I will not explain here, but for anyone concerned with the word “Satan,” simply replace it with “Ego,” for they are the same.
