150: What Does ACIM Say About the Bible?

For many spiritual seekers, A Course in Miracles and the Bible seem like two completely different paths. And yet, the Course references the Bible more than anything else—with nearly 900 biblical quotes and allusions throughout its 2,000 pages. So what does the Course actually say about the Bible? How does it affirm, reinterpret, or even correct biblical teachings? And what does this mean for students of the Course today? In this episode of Exploring A Course in Miracles, Emily and Robert dive deep into:

  • How the Course grants authority to the Bible—especially the Gospels
  • Why Jesus urges students to read the Bible and examine his credentials
  • The Course’s reinterpretation of key biblical passages (e.g., “Vengeance is Mine,” “God is not mocked”)
  • How Jesus reframes the meaning of his crucifixion and resurrection
  • The bigger picture: how the Course aims to recover the Bible’s true message of love

 Whether you’ve struggled with the relationship between A Course in Miracles and the Bible or you’re just curious to learn more, this conversation is one of the most important we’ve ever had.
