【與神對話】如何分辨是否「來自神的訊息」的方法

以神之名，人類數千年來已說出了許多話語、傳達了許多文字。

許多人類的想法和感受，一直是由「並非來自神」的信息所倡導；

許多人類的經驗都是這樣產生的。

 

這是一個辨識能力的問題。

難在於如何辨識出「神的信息」和「其他來源的資料」之間的差別。

而現在，你只要運用一個基本原理，就不難辨識了：

 

  

聽神談【如何分辨是否「來自神的訊息」的方法】

 

你們對一件事情的經驗和感受，代表著你們事實上和直覺上對於那一件事情的所知。

語言只能試圖標誌出你所知的內容，並且常常會混淆你所知的內容。

 

這些(想法、經驗和話語)是我用來溝通的工具(tools)，

然而它們並不是(我和你們溝通的)方法

(methods，注意：是溝通的「工具」而非溝通的「方法模式」)，

因為並不是所有的感受、所有的想法、所有的經驗及所有的話語都來自我。

 

以我之名，許多話語一直在被別人說出。

許多想法和許多感受，一直在由非我直接創造出來的起因(cause)所倡導。

許多的經驗都是由這些產生的。

 

面臨的挑戰是一種辨識能力的問題。

難在於如何辨識出「神的信息」和「其他來源來的資料」之間的差別。

而只要運用一個基本原理，這辨識就不難了：

  

你最高的想法、你最清晰的話語、你最崇高的感受，永遠是來自我。

除此之外的，都是來自其他的來源。

(Mine is always your Highest Thoutht, your Clearest Word, your Grandest Feeling. Anything less is from another source.)

 

現在，分辨的重任變得容易了，

因為即使是初學者也應該不難辨認出是不是最高的、最清楚的、最崇高的。

  

不過我再給你們這些指導方針： 

最高的想法，永遠是那包含著喜悅的想法。

最清楚的話語，永遠是那些包含著真理的話語。

最崇高的感受，就是你們稱為愛的那種感受。

 

喜悅，真理，愛。(Joy, truth, love)

這三者是可以互換的，而其一永遠導向另一個，不論它們的先後次序如何。

 

有了這個指導原則，便很容易決定出哪個訊息是我的，哪個來自其他來源。

剩下的唯一問題是，我的信息是否有受到注意。

 

 

摘自《與神對話 I》第1章

 

 

Your experience and your feelings about a thing represent what you factually and intuitively know about that thing. Words can only seek to symbolize what you know, and can often confuse what you know.

These, then, are the tools with which I communicate, yet they are not the methods, for not all feelings, not all thoughts, not all experience, and not all words are from Me.

Many words have been uttered by others, in My name. Many thoughts and many feelings have been sponsored by causes not of My direct creation. Many experiences result from these.

The challenge is one of discernment. The difficulty is knowing the difference between messages from God and data from other sources. Discrimination is a simple matter with the application of a basic rule:

Mine is always your Highest Thought, your Clearest Word, your Grandest Feeling. Anything less is from another source.

Now the task of differentiation becomes easy, for it should not be difficult even for the beginning student to identify the Highest, the Clearest, and the Grandest.

Yet will I give you these guidelines: The Highest Thought is always that thought which contains joy. The Clearest Words are those words which contain truth. The Grandest Feeling is that feeling which you call love.

Joy, truth, love.

These three are interchangeable, and one always leads to the other. It matters not in which order they are placed.

Having with these guidelines determined which messages are Mine and which have come from another source, the only question remaining is whether My messages will be heeded.
