Some posts claim that A Course in Miracles is somehow a Satanic attempt to mislead Christians. The Bible tells us specifically how to judge works such as A Course in Miracles -- by their fruits. "Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves. By their fruit you will recognize them. .. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. ... Thus, by their fruit you will recognize them." Matt. 7:15-20.
Some excerpts from the Course are set forth below so that you can judge its 'fruits' for yourself:
"Let us ask the Father in my [Jesus'] name to keep you mindful of His Love for you and yours for Him. ... Thou shalt have no other gods before Him because there are none." A Course in Miracles (Text) p. 61.
"You know not of salvation for you do not understand it. ... ask the Holy Spirit everything, and leave all those decisions to His gentle counsel." Text at 277.
The Course instructs you to ask God every day:
"Ask Him very specifically: What would You have me do? Where would You have me go? What would You have me say, and to whom?" Workbook for Students, Lesson 61.
The Course also teaches you to pray daily:
"Let every voice but God's be still in me. Father, today I would but hear Your Voice ... I would come to You, to hear Your Voice and to receive Your Word". Workbook for Students, Lesson 254.
The Course teaches that:
"Whenever you are tempted to undertake a useless journey that would lead away from light, remember what you really want and say: The Holy Spirit leads me unto Christ, and where else would I go?" A Course in Miracles, p. 257.
"[L]et Christ's strength prevail in every circumstance and every place you raised an image of yourself before. For what appears to hide the face of Christ is powerless before His majesty, and disappears before His holy sight." A Course in Miracles, p. 667.
The Course also tells us that:
"The peace of God is shining in you now, and from your heart extends around the world. It pauses to caress each living thing, and leaves a blessing with it that remains forever and forever. What it gives must be eternal. It removes all thoughts of the ephemeral and valueless. It brings renewal to all tired hearts, and lights all vision as it passes by. All of its gifts are given everyone, and everyone unites in giving thanks to you who give, and you who have received." Workbook for Students, Lesson 188.
...
"Seek you no further. You will not find peace except the peace of God. Accept this fact, and save yourself the agony of yet more bitter disappointments, bleak despair, and sense of icy hopelessness and doubt." Workbook for Students, Lesson 200.
The above passages are part of the "'fruits" by which to judge A Course in Miracles. They are clearly not Satan’s teachings. If you are a Christian wondering about A Course in Miracles, then ask yourself, would Satan instruct you to ask God in Jesus' name to keep you mindful of God's love for you? That there are no gods but God? That nothing can withstand the Love of Christ for His Father, or His Father's Love for Him? That you should turn your decision about salvation over to the "gentle counsel" of the Holy Spirit? That anything that attempts to hide the face of Christ "is powerless before His majesty, and disappears before His holy sight."? Would Satan instruct you to ask God specifically every day for his guidance? To ask the Holy Spirit every day to lead you to Christ? To help Christ give His gift of light to all those who still wander in the darkness? Would Satan tell you that you will not find peace except the peace of God? That you must let Christ's strength prevail in every troubled circumstance you encounter rather than rely on yourself alone? Of course he wouldn't.
If you still believe that these are Satan’s teachings, then Satan is opposing Satan and Satan's end has come. Mark: 3: 22-26 (Jesus’ exact response when the Pharisees accused him of being in league with Satan)

About the author
This IS a Miracle - and an answer to many prayers
I am beyond grateful for this book. I cannot wait to get further into the teachings, but I’m purposefully taking the time to ensure my understanding. It’s the answers to the questions I’ve had my entire life.The book came wrapped in cellophane so it was fun to unwrap it. My friend commented that the size feels like a Bible. She’s right. The paper quality and font size feels like it too, but for me, this has such purer resonance.I recommend it highly and yes, until you’re truly ready for it, it won’t be as much ease. Enjoy! I know I am.
