For They Have Come: An Ancient Hatred Becomes a Present Love [AUDIOSTR]

“For They Have Come” is the title of a section in the text, unique in its invocation of the timeless state that reflects the ancient instant when God’s Son chose hate instead of love, and then, in that ontological moment, corrected it through forgiveness. This section reflects the Course’s major themes of forgiveness and the holy relationship, but places them in their proper setting in the timeless mind, though we experience their occurrence in our everyday experience. Thus we seem to be choosing to forgive in the “earthly frame” (S-2.III.7:3) of the body, but in truth are but returning to the mind we never left—“the holiest of all the spots on earth…where an ancient hatred has become a present love”—restoring God and Christ to Their rightful home in our holy minds.

Now is the Holy Spirit’s purpose done. For They have come. For They have come at last!
