wk 5, 3/13... from Jehanne de Quillan's THE GOSPEL OF THE BELOVED COMPANION:

 42.10 ONLY THEN MY MASTER TOLD ME, WHEN YOU HAVE REJECTED THE DECEIVER, CAN YOU PASS THROUGH THE HARDEST GATE OF ALL TO ATTAIN THE FIFTH BOUGH AND THE FRUIT OF CLARIY AND TRUTH. ONLY THEN WILL YOU KNOW THE CLARITY AND TRUTH OF YOUR SOUL AND, KNOWING YOURSELF FOR THE FIRST TIME, UNDERSTAND THAT YOU ARE A CHILD OF THE LIVING SPIRIT.  AND AS MY SOUL MOVED UPWARD, I REALIZED THAT I COULD NO LONGER HEAR THE VOICE OF THE WORLD, AS ALL HAD BECOME AS SILENCE.

- What will be the “reject the deceiver” experience?  

- What lie is especially difficult to reject?   [JN17.16]

- Define spiritual clarity.

- Define Truth.

- Define Soul.  [JN 3.6}

- What is the significance of realizing you are a “Child of the Living Spirit?” [ACIM WB 182]

- “Knowing yourself for the first time” and “born again” both express what?

- Is there a difference between understanding and believing?

- What is the sentiment expressed by the “Voice of the World?”

- Why is there only silence?
