You can no more expect it to do something for you tomorrow than if you planted an apple seed today and expected to find apples growing in your yard tomorrow.” The mind of Christ is that Truth received from within our own being and comes after time spent living by the letter of truth and opening ourselves to hear the Word of God through meditation.

Title: Mystical I Author: Joel S.

He shows us that this son of God I is the I that “stands at the door and knocks” within each and every one of us, but we have lost touch with this true I and that is the source of all our problems. How we attain this oneness with the I that we truly are is the age-old question that The Mystical I answers so forcefully. This book will provide a deep experience for those searching for their true Self.

Title: Living Now Author: Joel S. Goldsmith Synopsis: A daily guide to living in the presence of God. "Ultimately, we all want to be free of disease, lack and limitation, sin or sinful desires; we all want to be free of material law.

As its’ title suggests it is the answer for all those searching to overcome the problems of this world. The freedom that this book reveals is a state of permanent freedom. It is not the freedom we experience when we recover from some disease, for in that state we always know or expect that some other ailment can afflict us. It is not the freedom from lack that a wonderful new job or large inheritance may bring us, for these also can fail us. The freedom expressed in this book by Joel S. Goldsmith is a freedom already within us, which is arrived at through the discipline of knowing the truth, the truth about God, man and “the nature of error” and standing firm in these truths. As he says “ if we are not abiding in the Word and letting the Word abide in us, all the evils of this world can come near our dwelling place”.

Title: The Realization of Oneness Author: Joel S. Goldsmith Synopsis: Life presents people with a wide variety of choices each and every day. Some of which tempt us to reach further ahead while others seem ordinary and methodical, involving very little effort. Why should some choices require more thought and caution than others? Within us all, there lies a driving force residing in the heart that unknowingly influences our every decision and action. If we were to follow this force, each decision would be effortless and stress free, but the reality can be quite the opposite. To live as one with our inner source without any fear is the answer. ``````Joel S. Goldsmith, a leading spiritual teacher of the twentieth century, examines this dilemma and offers a spiritual solution to why “Oneness” may seem apparently simple to achieve, yet so difficult to attain.
