What
Are The Characteristics of God's Teachers?
Tolerance
God's
teachers do not judge.
To
judge is to be dishonest, for to judge is to assume a position
you do not have.
Judgment
without self-deception is impossible.
Judgment
implies that you have been deceived in your brothers.
How
then could you not have been deceived in yourself?
Judgment
implies a lack of trust, and trust remains the bed-rock
of the teacher of God's whole thought system. Let
this be lost and all his learning goes.
Without
judgment are all things equally acceptable, for who could judge
otherwise?
Without
judgment are all men brothers, for who is there who stands apart?
Judgment
destroys honesty and shatters trust.
No teacher of God can judge and hope to learn.

Do not
judge according to appearance, but judge with righteous
judgment. John
7:24
The Holy
Spirit is nothing more than your own right
mind. He was also mine. The Bible says, “May the
mind be in you that was also in Christ Jesus,” ... It
asks that you may think as I thought, joining with me in Christ-thinking.
Chap
5 Healing as Joining
Judge not,
that ye be not judged. Matthew
7:1
The Holy
Spirit is in you in a very literal sense. His is the Voice that
calls you back to where you were before, and will be again...
It is possible, even in this world, to hear only that voice...It
takes effort and great willingness to learn. It is the final
lesson that I learned, and God's Sons are as equal as learners
as they are as Souls. Chap
5 Voice for God
