“The new kingdom which my Father is
about to set up in the hearts of his earth children is to be an everlasting
dominion. There shall be no end of this rule of my Father in the hearts of
those who desire to do his divine will. I declare to you that my Father is not the
God of Jew or gentile. Many shall come from the east and from the west to sit
down with us in the Father’s kingdom, while many of the children of Abraham
will refuse to enter this new brotherhood of the rule of the Father’s spirit in
the hearts of the children of men.
“The power of this kingdom shall
consist, not in the strength of armies nor in the might of riches, but rather
in the glory of the divine spirit that shall come to teach the minds and rule
the hearts of the reborn citizens of this heavenly kingdom, the sons of God.
This is the brotherhood of love wherein righteousness reigns, and whose battle
cry shall be: Peace on earth and good will to all men. This kingdom, which you
are so soon to go forth proclaiming, is the desire of the good men of all ages,
the hope of all the earth, and the fulfillment of the wise promises of all the
prophets.
“But for you, my children, and for
all others who would follow you into this kingdom, there is set a severe test.
Faith alone will pass you through its portals, but you must bring forth the
fruits of my Father’s spirit if you would continue to ascend in the progressive
life of the divine fellowship. Verily, verily, I say to you, not every one who
says, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven; but rather he who does
the will of my Father who is in heaven.
“Your message to the world shall
be: Seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and in finding these,
all other things essential to eternal survival shall be secured therewith. And
now would I make it plain to you that this kingdom of my Father will not come
with an outward show of power or with unseemly demonstration. You are not to go
hence in the proclamation of the kingdom, saying, ‘it is here’ or ‘it is
there,’ for this kingdom of which you preach is God within you.
