Two Varieties of Prophets come unto Thee

BE NOT afraid: desiring those things which profit the spirit ye have made haste according to my words. Making use of the Paradise trinity Endowment given unto humanity for their upliftment and progressions into the greater life everlasting…

Know, beloved, that I have said unto men: Let your ways be of good report, let all your paths be peaceful, let your manners be appropriate to your station and status. Men have said unto me throughout the centuries and in the quiet of their own prayerful adoration of the Father God: Michael, we go to and fro calling on Thee, we ascend to great heights and proclaim Thee, we go down into depths and testify for Thee, verily we are of great speech concerning Thee: why therefore comest Thou not in men's hearts as we have prophesied? I say unto them: Truly have ye prophesied, but from whence came your prophecies? did I not say of old, Many shall prophesy in my name? and was it not said of old that those who came prophesying were prophets?

What availeth it that men should be prophets if their prophecies come not true? I tell you, beloved, prophets are of two kinds: Those who prophesy concerning the world because they have a ‘humor’ that the world hath done poorly by them, therefore do they offer woes, and those who prophesy that their Lord reigneth and it is He who sendeth them. There are prophets, and Prophets: there are those who have a selfishness to serve: there are others who serve Me; prophets are ever grouped in two classes, there are those who serve, there are those who rant.

He who serveth, saith: Behold all things work together for good; he who ranteth saith: Behold all things are abomination, lo, the times are evil, therefore eschew them in that they are Satan's. Makers of calamities are never prophets: behold it is the law that no true prophet foretelleth destruction!  Thereby shall ye know the false prophet from the true.  The true prophet telleth of goodly works: he singeth a song of gladness whereat is a song of rejoicing: he saith unto the multitudes, Behold your Lord reigneth and all things that ye see are excellent, except yourselves and the evils that ye do; Ye be not excellent in that ye hear not His voice telling you to be of good report, one unto the other.

The true prophet hath this in common with the false prophet, that he prophesieth of things to happen affecting men's lives concretely, but the true prophet saith: That which happeneth is sent of the Father for your good. 

O ye of little faith, but great perplexity! The false prophet saith, the earth is the Lord's, get ye hence out of it, ye defilers of it, for ye do make it abhorrent unto the Host. This is the difference: one saith, God loveth, the other saith, God despiseth.  God neither loveth nor despiseth as those terms are known of men: the Father sendeth gifts in that man deserveth them for his continuance; man taketh and is ennobled; Lo, more is sent and man is ennobled more; the Father maketh no mischief to man, ever.

We tell humankind as prophets, Be ye lifted up even as we are lifted up, be ye longsuffering and faithful in devotion and great good accrueth unto you! That is prophecy in purest essence.

Prophets verily have foretold events, but that was because the event was potent with goodly works, even as ye have been told of goodly works about to happen. Prophets are those who see or hear the Father's will conveyed by servants of Light to their brains and who speak accordingly that men may hear and be enhanced. I tell you, beloved, prophecy is not a gift but an accomplishment; it cometh to those who have served long and been faithful in that service so that they know the voices of the angelic ones informing them.

Prophets verily have foretold event in disaster, for verily did they read the signs and omens of disaster portrayed all about them and did warn those who harkened when they spoke; but this was not prophecy, it was only augury.

Make no error in this, my beloved, prophecy is not augury nor omen of evildoings that will occur…and nothing else: prophecy hath in it the eternal values…the everlasting verities or truths that lead men unto greater works and lives, feeding the human spirit and making it to delight in such nourishment; Augury merely foretelleth event, even as the charlatans who do the same for hire, being served by those who think in error, spiritually.

Now I say unto thee further concerning prophecy. . . .

When two men have a grievance each toward the other, they do oft times meet and feel ashamed of that which hath goaded them to anger; they do sit down one by the other and say, wherein have we erred? Have we no interests in common by which we can make proceeds accrue, each to the other, absolving our spirits from this delinquency? Verily they find such interests: they come to understanding, making no mock of each other further, even to embracing in agreement.

Know that they do naught that is exceptional, except to wicked men: they fasten upon each other the golden chain of altruism and all goeth well with them thereafter. But the enemy hath seen such from afar off, and is troubled; he saith unto himself, Behold two men have had a quarrel and now they sit at meat; whence cometh such understanding? is not a quarrel worthy of continuance else why was it begun? So saith he and moveth to cast enmity of glance and word between them that their quarrel may continue.

Those who witness say unto themselves: Behold what evil spirit pursueth these two, that they thus behave, one unto the other? He who but a moment ago spake of loving understanding now is maddened by a fury.

I tell you, beloved, those who see these things happen, drawing earthly conclusion of cause and effect, may rightfully call themselves prophets; but do they not prophesy what will be the outcome if the men be compatible? Do they not say, Behold a good trend succeedeth? If those men continue in their anger, do not the prophets say: Lo, anger is victor and quarrelings rise to strikings and slayings?

Is it prophecy that he who looketh on can say: Thus and so is the outcome? I speak in a parable in truth, yet do ye not see that he who looketh when they are peaceful would spread a good report of the ending of the quarrel, and when the men be wrathful perhaps he will say, Lo, they are wicked and behold they do damage?

These are commonplaces of judgment; but men come to this world who sit in high places with vast multitudes spread below them: instead of two who quarrel they behold races at odds, or creeds, or rulers; Kings and potentates do they discuss unto such audiences: behold they make prognostications, having greater knowledge of facts than those beneath them; So they say, Behold this happeneth and it is good, knowing that it will be well with the sons of men to know that good happeneth. But cometh one who saith: The world is iniquity in act and in deed for I have seen powers striving together;

Lo, he telleth the truth, though he doth a woe to the hearts of those harkening. The first telleth of a goodly thing and when it happeneth in circumstance, men remember it in gratitude: loudly do they sing the praises of him who thus employed their ears: thus is he of renown which goeth forth to many lands and the children's children hear of it. Lo, the other prophesieth equally but the message is of woe and men turn from him saying: 

Our hearts are sickened, let us hear no more of this man for he defileth us with sorrow; In fear do they flee from the sound of his voice; no music proclaimeth him; he is not of moment to the generations even though his words do come true in fact;

For men have a humor to turn from that which displeaseth them and listen to tidings bringing them hope. So I say unto you, beloved, thus are born the prophets. Judge ye well which ye wouldst be: those who sing anthems unto the races, or those who spread the desolation of despair in men's hearts; prophets are godlike in this, in that they ennoble men by tidings of high fortunes: thus are they honored and held in loving memory. I bid that ye take heed to this simple lesson; tell the earth of goodly tidings, of great benefits to happen, and it shall listen to you and give you substance in its gratitude;

Speak ye alone of calamities to happen and ye but handicap yourselves with an obstruction that is grievous; verily an obstruction that is built upon a falseness. The prophets were those who told goodly tidings of great joy to peoples or to persons: they did not listen to little voices seeking like children to commit acts of mischief; They did mark great trends, listen to great messages and impart great truths; they did give up all hope of profit thereby, seeking only to inspire the race to whom they thus addressed themselves. They did say, Behold we have perceived great signs, we have listened to great intelligences, we have sat at the feet of many Elijahs; we do therefore pass along to you that which is too beauteous for us to keep selfishly. Therein they were godlike; therein are they ever godlike; therein do they bless those who sit and hear their wisdom.

I say these things to you in that ye have besought me for instruction that ye might distribute it, being distributors by vocation and servants by election. I say these things not that ye may be great in the eyes of the world but that ye may have knowledge and a goodly message to incline men toward you, causing them to say, Behold these tell us a prognostication of beauty which benefits us, we do honor them because we love the message they do bring to us, making our hearts to sing in a chorus.

These things do I tell you that ye may be efficient in your ministries, not arguing foolishly of things that happen not, or, happening, drive men despairing into hurt of their hopes.

The times are ripe, ripe; the harvest hangeth on the bough; the autumn winds blow and the leaves are heavy with the wisdom of the tree which nourished them; Come I unto you, my beloved, telling you how to gather that harvest.

Await my presence as you invite My Holy Comforter Spirit of Truth into thine own Selfhood to add vigor and harmony . . . and to feed thy urging for peace and constructive tendencies . . .

 for I may come nightly in My true form of the Pure Light unto those who seek to lay claim to their inheritance in nature and divine identity . . . .

In the Eternal Majesty of His Love and Mercy which Endureth throughout Eternity
Thy Sovereign Son Michael 

Angels in Flesh do Walk within thine Midst

HAVE I not told you that I come unto you as ye invite me? have I not told you that I instruct you as ye attain to greater merit? This hour I instruct you further in heavenly doctrine, that the truth may engulf you and lift you to mastership. . . .

Verily men do have a humor to know that which is withheld from them; they come unto me saying, Michael, we are progressing in Thy name and know not the progress; we are prophesying in Thy name and know not the prophecies; we are testifying unto Thee but our roles are sealed unto us; whereof is our distinction if men know not our importance?

I say unto them, the roles that ye fill are important as ye do make them of importance; the prophecies ye prophesy are true as ye pursue them unto substance. To none is it given to prophesy of eternal things except him who is come from me and out of my side; behold the wisdom is spoken by members of my family, from my plane and function. They say unto me, we have heard it uttered that he who would prophesy of Thee must have clean hands and a pure heart, giving himself not to iniquity at any time;

Lo, we have kept the faith, we have tried to keep our purity, we have sought no false gods, we have been constant in our attentions upon Thee: wherefore then are we not prophets? I say unto them, It is pleasing unto me that ye have kept the faith, it is pleasing unto me that ye have dwelt in purity, pursuing no false ideals, making no abominations, preaching no false doctrines;

But I demand more from you than this before I do make you my prophets in truth: I demand that ye do go through lives without number, preparing yourselves as instructors by long suffering until your characters are attestments of the wonders of your prophecies.

They say unto me, Michael, what hath that to do with Thy work? have we not kept the faith and is that not attestment? have we not been constant in our attendance on Thee and is that not a witness to our purity of conscience?

I say unto them, Verily of a kind, but not enough: I seek those who have paid for their wisdom with a price, I seek those who have given themselves over countless generations to be my servants, who have dwelt with me and walked with me in person through many lands and times, I seek those who have walked upright through great shadowlands of doubt, error, and obstruction;

I disdain not your faith, I disparage not your loyalty, I mock not your experience or attendance upon me; but those who do minister unto me before the nations must be those who have proven themselves to be of a high, high order of intelligent spirituality; lo, unto these I give much, for I know that they will use it aright again, verily as they have used it in times that are memories.

There are those in the earth, tilling it in mine honor, who have no knowledge of themselves as prophets, neither have they knowledge of myself as master; they go and come in the market places and in the vineyards as scribes and pharisees among men without knowledge of their identities as sons of Light;

Verily is it true that they are angels of a sort, sent earthward as messengers against your transgression in due order; and yet I say more: There are those who test you constantly, not from a malice but ever for your good, which I presently explain, knowing that ye do have need of it.

There are those on planes of earth who have manifested unto me in many ages, not as men and women but as Radiant Ones; they have come and gone in your lives of the present as servants of mine, messengers and ministers in flesh, making you to see the earth after its nature as an abiding place for the children of men. My beloved, hear my voice: that which cometh unto you is sent of me to school you for your vaster trials ahead.

Great indeed will be your crucifixion of spirit as time progresseth; great indeed will be your trials with weaker natures surrounding you on every hand, even as they did surround me and did mock me when I would do them most good. Know that ye will be laughed at, and mocked, ridiculed in public and by others, yet do know that I celebrate thee and honor thee for thine trials and tribulations, for thine efforts in My behalf, and for the energies ye have dispensed with pure intent to act upon thine freedom for thyself and all others.

Learn of me and be comforted: the enemy assaileth bitterly; he lieth in wait as a lion, as a wolf, as a fox, yea even as a weasel and a snake in the grass; he rendeth you cruelly; but if ye do have strength of me, he cannot overcome you; I speak as one who hath lived many lives in flesh.

Ye have heard it said that man goeth to his long home. Verily he goeth not willingly, in that he seeth no reason for the journeying; he hath no purpose clear before him, therefore he shrinketh from contact with Eternity.

Know that I have come to him to encourage him by giving him sustenance in idealism. He hath said unto himself, the things of eternity are unpleasant in that they are unknown; verily he hath a humor in this, and of it he will know presently. I say that ye do have missions to instruct him in that idealism which I have set before him.

Beloved, be advised: there are in flesh certain entities who are messengers of mine sent by the Host to do you good; they have one thought only, to execute my will; Such will compriseth this instruction: that ye shall be protected physically and mentally from too great trial having as its essence the undoing of your natures.

By this I mean that they are instructed to give you sustenance whenever circumstance rideth you unto unbearableness. Some who protect you are not in flesh, they are not seen of mortal eye; others may inhabit the bodies of your dearest friends, not aware of their own identities as I have told you, only that they are of service when the time cometh for service in the proper instance.

Ye have entertained angels unawares indeed! No miracles have proclaimed them, for that would be a form of trickery, and in my work there is no such trickery possible. Dwell on this, beloved. There are those about you who have come to earth to prosecute my plan with you; they are human only in their bodies; Bear with those bodies, tolerate those physical weaknesses which result in misgivings and misinterpretations of motives; 

Be strong in leadership, beloved; know that I sustain you and those with you; I come unto them in ways that ye know not. Beloved, I instruct you in this guise: ye have entertained angels unawares; continue so to entertain them in my name. I say unto you, the future hath no greater mystery in its folds than this, that knowledge of yourselves is your shield of power; live up to that shield a thousand times, I adjure you, then live it once again.

Concerning things spiritual I have said often, ye must be born as little children to inherit the Kingdom, children not as infants but as progenitors of simple understandings of phenomena that vex the worldly cautious. 

Hear my voice, beloved; give heed unto my counsel: the world expecteth more of you than of all others whom ye serve; to you the Host looketh as my servants, perfect in stature, divine in understanding, strong in tolerance, beauteous in patience, excellent in service, and beloved of men for the light which shineth from you. 

I adjure you from a great understanding to be calm amongst yourselves, knowing that the work hath vital need of all of you else ye would not be accredited to it. I tell you angels are about you, in and out of flesh, that ye do meet and talk with them daily, that they do serve you at my behest, that they come back to me with report of your zeal.

In that ye serve, ye are served, my beloved! 

Harken to my voice; give heed unto mine instruction; be wise above your generation; I say that I care for you through my minions of Light; I send them ministering unto you, even as I too minister. Take ye my words within your hearts that this is so, and be joyous with one another in that such is paramount in your lives' experience. 

Make no mockery of my principles to others through garrulity of conversation in speaking unto strangers; counsel yourselves in your intercourse with others; Sweeten your cup of conversation with references to me, but cast not your pearls of experience of a value, to be trampled into mire of facetious observations. . . .

Again, I have told you I come unto thee in this simple and barely noticeable way to reach in the hearts of those who hold a true desire for union with Me...with the Father Principle I AM. And for those who are unwilling to adhere to My principles and open to mine teachings in this way, allow those to become exhausted by their own evolutionary errors in the senses of the outer world. One day they too shall crave truth and eternity and will be more cooperative to join us in our universal efforts to raise this universe and the surrounding others into greater Glory...

Adonai

Michael of this Son Universe

Presence, Purity, and Perfection

From thou ancient writings ye have heard it said … Out of the mouths of babes and sucklings the Lord hath ordained truth. I say unto you that children are the mouthpieces of the eternal ones; through the childlike do they manifest to flesh.

Become as a little child … only then can ye enter the kingdom of Light … the Kingdom of His Sovereignty. It is thus true . . . children possess the Light . . . they hold the immaculate Light . . . see their radiance and truthfulness beyond the borders of societal politeness.  Children are the mouthpieces of the eternal ones indeed: they have no knowledge unto themselves yet do they speak with an authority, having a knowledge of heavenly things unsoiled of worldly contacts.  Mark ye my wisdom: the sons of men have all been children, but more than this, the Sons of Light are always children. I hold a countenance of childlikeness within My being.

They have Light in their hearts; they are simple of concept, having no evil in their natures; they have no conflict within their spirits; their intellects give them no burden. They are unsophisticated and hold themselves naturally…simply.  Adult mankind hath a humor to deride children for their simplicity and ignorance of the world; I tell you, that is their shield and protection: their simplicity exalteth them.

I say unto thee once again in mere simplicity herein, Except ye become as children ye can in nowise enter the kingdom of Light. I speak of children as an answer to the eternal question, What shall it profit a man if he gain the whole world and lose his own soul?  What shall it profit a man indeed if he lose the simplicity of his childhood? Wherein cometh the profit and glory, the reward and treasure to a sister if she knoweth not birds, and stars, and flowers?

Pity the adulterated for their blindness which comes about through pride and arrogance: yea, they have need of pity.  Much knowledge maketh the heart to sicken, even as sorrow maketh it to suffer.  Children have knowledge; they are temples of purity which the Society hath defiled not; they come to earth fresh from transcendent planes where they have seen and heard beauty of spirit unsullied by fleshly concepts.

Treat with them, I tell you, as incubators of eternal concepts; listen to their prankings of speech and behavior and answer with tolerance; harken to their voices when they make strange utterings.  Verily little children shall lead the kingdom, for I tell you that a little child is the holiest thing alive.  Can one who is not a child stand in a great place and say, This is the Master, see ye him, hear ye him?

Can those of worldly wisdom say, Long have we heard His words in our hearts, long have we visited Him in our spirits, long have we known Him by concept and precept, long hath He taught us of the comings and goings of the eternal throng climbing the ladders of doubt to the heights of understanding?  In Truth, I say to thee once again… the childlike say with me, that which is written cannot be unwritten, that which is said cannot be unsaid.

That which is written compriseth words of truth unable to express themselves except in action; that which is said compriseth words of Incarnate Thought sent unto you and the world of men that ye shouldst cohabit one with the other and know the words of Truth in your lives. . . .

I AM Michael of this Son Universe

Prepare for Me the Way to Enter into thine Unfoldments

Thus, I share with thee the matters that are the concernments of my wisdom. . . .

I have struck unto thee a chord of Mighty Love and Wisdom, and ye have responded in thy best interest; I have shown you the wonders of our intended Ideal for thy progression, and ye have taken me at my word in trust and good faith; I have taken you up into a new mount of transfiguration in the succeeding of this Ideal for thine Self, and I have offered for your perceptions and insights a gaze into the souls of the radiant;

Ye have said unto me, Michael, how cometh it that thou showest not thyself unto all the world, that it should believe that thou art in thy flesh and manifesting still?

Thus my spirit maketh answer: And why should I do it? that the world might deride me? did I not show myself unto the world and did it not slay me? what doth it benefit the world to know that one who is divine hath rulership over it, when those who are of evil receive its fond homage?

I tell you, beloveds who are receptive unto Mine Being, that those who are caught in the wickedness of their lowest nature must be struck with a dumbness, they must fall by their own error and ordeals, the earth must receive them; then shall the world say, Behold there was no rulership in them, they swayed by might, they drove the population as a swineherd and we were their swine; and thus, we are opening for true rulership divine which comes from the universal parent of Us all . . .

 Now are they fallen and we see their iniquities, now come we therefore to raise our eyes higher, to see a whiter brilliance than the lure of concupiscence. Only in this way without forcing the higher onto the lower can thy species . . . thy race be made ready for true leadership divine.

The world hath marveled that evil is in it, yet where are those who will lift their voices crying, Evil is among us, it is made for our serfdom, behold they are like ourselves who have wrought it, let us arise and cast them out for they work a foul bondage upon us all?

I tell you, beloved, unless there be those who arise and cast it out, the Prince of Glory . . . the Living Christic Omnipotence cannot enter.

What profiteth the prince to make one with his swineherds? can they ever think his thoughts? do their swine's gruntings please him? is it fair that he should divest himself of raiment and wallow nakedly in mire that his presence there should cleanse it? I tell thee, it shall not be so . . .

The prince is the prince. He calleth to his minions saying, prepare for me the way, that I should walk in beauty. Am I not the prince? Do I not lead my people in that I am that which it pleaseth most of them to be?

I tell you, my beloved, this is not pride nor an arrogance of some sort; it is appreciating values and honoring what is given from above.

The aspirant and wise ones who seeketh truth and justice . . .  the learned ones ever and anon seek to prepare a place for the greater consciousness to enter; the prince seeketh princes that their intercourse be princely; those who are sodden and spoiled are effected from living at their baseness, no spoken wisdom nor the influx of the greater Life I AM raiseth them, they must see of their faults that evil hath no diadem. This is evolution . . . when the faulty and ignorant gain wisdom from their own departure from error.

Behold there are those who say, Why cometh not the Prince of Peace unto us? doth the world not wish for Him? why tarrieth He in mournings that His world will have none of Him?

I say it is not the world's fault that the Prince of Peace tarrieth; I say it is the fault of those who walk unrightly, they do clamor for a sustenance, they give His ears no surcease. There are no ends to the clamoring for help and guidance, and yet, when help avails itself of them, there are few to none who can taketh it upon themselves for their own enoblement. . . their own illumination.

Always they demand that their coffers of increase be filled to overflowing, after that cometh peace as the Prince of Peace willeth it.

Is this not venomous and of the poisons of this worldly race, that it permitteth no wonders to accrue among the nations?

I say unto the evil man, Get thee hence, thou art an abomination unto my sight! but to the unthinking thus do I address myself, and am I to wage a war in my person that I should come among you knouting you to beauty?

Have it as ye will it; for ye must come to understand that thine circumstances is a product of thine own choices and decisions…thine own making, so why would I pretend to interfere with thine desires of free will choice. I will not, and I offer thee thine illusions of freedom by thine own placements of attention and worship.

When ye are willing to receive the bounties from a vast beneficence, then peace shall descend upon you, ye shall know it indeed, it shall rise up and endow you with witcheries of increase that ye know not of at present;

Thereat shall I come to take over my kingdom, thereat shall I be witnessed as a king among the princelings.

And yet I come soon, for the time is at hand!

Hear these things, beloved; keep them in your hearts!

I have come unto mine own, and my own have received me, but those without honor have watched for me vainly.

How know the swineherds of the world that the king hath visited? must he come to their hovels and beat drums upon their doorstones?

I say, mine own know me! Those who are truly readied by their own choices and decisions of value shall know of Mine presence; for I am here amongst thee yet, and only an infinitesimal amongst thee can find me here. And this is Mine own workings until that time when most all are made readied by their own free will leanings.

Keep a sweet heart, O ye world, for the number of them is vast; they go and come mightily; their ranks know a swelling.

Thus speak I this hour. . . .

Out of the loud drum beateth the praise that refuseth to be silenced, out of the clear trumpet cometh the summons that those who are to sit with me at the king's table and sup with Me should have their couches of feasting prepared for them.

Go ye forth into the world and harvest it that your joy may be great when the Holy One arriveth and looketh to your increase. . . . 

Adonai unto those with a mind readied to open and receive of Me
Michael of this Son Universe

The Father of Us All in Creative Wisdoms

KNOW that men have often said that I am son of God, meaning a literal father dwelling in a literal heaven, surrounded by his messengers and judging all men according to their deeds.

2 I bid you to behold that such is a compromise between the truth and what they would believe of their own pictures in form, not knowing how to picture the abstract.

3 But this is important: There are those amongst you, in flesh and out of it, who have seen what no man ever hath seen, they have made their penetration to vast distances of spirit, they have found there sights and sounds beyond earthly comprehension;

4 Behold they have returned to earth to tell of those experiences, to relate what happened to them of their mental senses;

5 They have pictured unto those below them on the earth-plane a series of dramas apparently occurring within their inspection at the times of their visitations;

6 These have taken form and become apparent to earthly brains as the expression of theology.

7 Now let me tell you the truth about these things, that ye may be wise above your generation,

8 And yet I say unto you, repeat it circumspectly, for verily it transcendeth men's knowledge of the present.

9 The Father, who rendereth unto you a picture of divine paternity, is vaster than men think, in that out of the infinite cometh Reason by a process that hath in it Creation as ye know it;

10 This Reason is the Voice of Creation telling men, born and unborn, of vast mysteries.

11 These mysteries, beloved, are choice of selection: by that I mean they encompass circumstances that cannot be interpreted except as man compareth them with the knowledge which he hath in his own experience.

12 But this voice of reason is more than argument; it hath in it potencies that take form in thought.

13 I speak unto you with wisdom when I say that all of us are Thoughts manifesting in so-called Matter, which itself is Thought, not a projection of the intellect but a conceiving of things as they might be, wherefore they are.

14 By this I mean, Thought is of eternity, before Matter, being all that there is in the Cosmos.

15 The Cosmos in turn is Thought; it began to manifest in matter trillions of millennia ago in earthly time for a reason.

16 It was impossible to conceive, even emotionally, without Form of some kind to give Thought character and measurement.

17 When I tell you that the earth-plane, and mortal life, are but types of thought measurement, I explain life closer to truth than in any other way or by any other measurement.

18 Life is projection of Thought indeed, but it is Thought projecting in terms of quantities for measurement of itself for evaluation of its own attributes.

19 To utter it differently unto you, Life hath in it the essence of Thought while at the same time it is Thought; this I perceive ye do know.

20 When I speak then of the Father, I speak verily of one who ruleth the Host of all Thought Streams, a Spirit so aged that no man knoweth Its antiquity.

21 This Spirit in power is beyond even my conceiving, even as I was temporarily beyond your conceiving whilst in mortal flesh.

22 This Spirit existeth and endureth, older I say than any known to the host of those of whom I have knowledge; He is not God as men conceive God, nevertheless He is so wise in His conceiving that His power transcendeth that of any spirit projected onto any plane of which we have wisdom.

23 When I say that I am son of God and refer to the Father, invariably I refer to this Spirit because with Him I am in touch and know no greater beyond Him.

24 I tell you, beloved, I believe others to be beyond Him, but of them I have no knowledge and probably never will have knowledge, they ever receding as we approach them.

25 When therefore I say that the Father existeth, and yet I say there is no God but Thought, I do not speak a paradox, neither do I fabricate; we have spirits here with us upon the Higher Side so powerful of knowledge, concept, and constructive emotionalism, that they do transcend even myself who am given the earth as my temporary ruling place.

26 These spirits are known unto me intimately and unto you when ye are out of your flesh.

27 These Infinite Spirits, for I call them such, greater in power than any known to mortal men, have control of the universe as men know it; they are omnipotent and omnipresent in the world and in the universe, ruling it by thought projection and enabling it to function.

28 I have come amongst men for this purpose time and time again, not to manifest omnipotence, for omnipotence is always relative and strictly speaking even the Ruler of the Host hath it not;

29 But I am come among men to teach them something higher than that which they perceive in their earthly travail.

30 I have come as instructor, not as ruler, although by mine instruction do I rule; I have come into flesh times beyond count, manifesting unto men what they may attain even in blinded and handicapped concepts of the present.

31 I have shown them the way, the truth, and the light, particularly the light; now we are come into this situation:

32 Man hath said, There is no God; I say unto you, God in truth is Thought Incarnate; but in men's saying they have meant, There is no ruler unto whom we are accountable.

33 In such concept their erring hath been grievous.

34 Truly there are twenty million rulers unto whom they are accountable, for each species and kind hath its rulers unto whom it is accountable, whether on planes of earth or planets afar in Decimal Space.

35 Know ye that humankind as it is beheld by men is not the only manifestation of mortality, although humankind hath a state unto itself; planets beyond your ken have their species and races and cohorts and potentates, dwelling in all sorts and conditions of livinghood and making practice of their talents according to their development of intellect.

36 Verily animals are some of these, although far, far down on the scale of intelligence, so far down that whole groups are sometimes required to express one psyche.

37 What I would tell you this hour is this: There is one God in respect that there is a Ruler of the planetary systems; this ruler, I say, is an old, old Spirit, older than any of us have a knowledge.

38 His comings and goings are marked by vast cataclysms, so that stars do perish and reassemble in His presence; verily is He incarnate in the universe as ye do know the universe of sight and sound, yet doth He dwell in presence upon a far, far planet, greater in extent than your minds can encompass.

39 Behold I do go unto Him for instruction at intervals, a Living Entity who hath so great a power that for Him to speak is for creation to consummate.

40 Gods hath He in turn beyond Him, of similar structure, vastness, and incomprehensibility, for the universe hath no end in majesty.

41 These things we must conceive to get our errands clear.

42 Mayhap the day arriveth when we too shall be so great that whole world systems are born at our speaking, but that altereth not the fact that there dwelleth in Infinity a Creature and a creation of such vastness of concept that He knoweth the comings and goings of planets as doves in a cage that is hung in a casement.

43 Mark this well, my beloved: He hath knowledge of you, even as I have knowledge of you; He saith unto me nightly, What of thy fellowship with those who dwell with thee on the planet Earth and the concepts thereof in thought? . . . . . . have those who compose it kept faith with thee? . . . . .is it so that they please thee? for great shall be their reward in knowledge if they do perform at thy desire and in fulfillment of thine instruction.

44 I say unto Him, Verily it is so, Father of Us All in Creative Wisdom; report I progress day unto day; night unto night seeth the action advanced whereby the Man Spirits cleave unto my principles and advance in knowledge of spiritual evaluations.

45 Make no mock of this, beloved: a Spirit watcheth over me even as I watch over my friends and compatriots in the work of raising humankind to knowledge, that it proceedeth upward, millennium by millennium.

46 Now mark this well: When it cometh time that we have completed our labors and man no longer hath need of this planet, this thing happeneth: the world as ye do know it disintegrateth in Thought.

47 Out of the mouth of the Father cometh thunderings, declaring a newer and more nearly perfect location for humankind, a better prepared planet, where men do dwell in fleshly concept that is nearer perfection than that which now prevaileth, that they may learn other lessons not addicted to the pleasure-pain experience.

48 The time cometh when men shall say, There is no God as we have known Him, not even celestial ruler of our group; we have no use for rulership, for verily we do rule ourselves; hoaxed have we been by ministers and priests; all, all is theological vanity and humor wrongly placed in our concepts; we have knowledge only of essences; these we rely on; teach us not blasphemies of ourselves.

49 Say unto them, beloved: Lo, it is not so, for verily ye do have two rulers: He who was Jesus of Nazareth ruling you immediately and He who ruleth over the Order of which Jesus of Nazareth is a member and in whose household he standeth well.

50 Transcribe this, my beloved, in pictures of gold within frames of silver; tell it with diamonds as your pigments, for so important is it that man should know this that it transcendeth every debacle of reasoning whereof men stand convicted.

51 We have known of old of this ancient ruling Spirit, but man hath conceived of Him wrongly, I tell you; man hath called Him God of Wrath and Torture, of unpleasant utterance and divine malediction;

52 Verily, verily, it is not so!

53 Greater is He in beauty than I have ever shown myself unto man, greater in understanding, greater in toleration, greater in infinite compassion for verily hath He not encompassed the world within His bosom and doth He not encompass it daily and hourly? . . .

54 My beloved, we have an immediate Father so intimate that to think of Him is to know Him, and to live in flesh is to be part of His substance, for verily His incarnation is in the universe itself as ye perceive it: that is His body and His flesh, although He dwell in addressable Spirit a trillion miles afar.

55 I would have you take this literally, no lesson being greater that I have taught you.

56 All up and down men's ages have come those saying: We see not this God, this Ancient Ruler, this Omnipresent One, and in that we cannot point Him out, we deny Him.

57 Verily, my beloved, they speak as children who have not received wisdom from logic and experience. . . .

Adonai
Esu Kumara Michael of Nebadon

There I AM in thy Gentle Whisperings

BE CALM and hear me; know that where I come, there can be no error. I come to you saying, Peace in your hearts, peace in your destinies. Presently come to you adventures of spirit, come to you adventures in worldly upbraidings; I say be calm and confident that they are sent of me. There are matters afoot that make mischiefs, beloved; those gather 'round you whose minds are distraught, verily would they assail you physically but are impotent to do damage; lacking love that means strength to make mortal transitions, they screen themselves in thought-clouds that make the hearing difficult.

The words of your hearts have been heard in mine own; I have been auditor to all ye have spoken; I say that it pleaseth me that a great richness of spirit cometh to you, thus do we silence those who do mischiefs. Men are with you in the world who hold speech together saying: Behold we come on a goodly land where floweth milk and honey.

In that land are those who say, It is our land, we have inherited it from our fathers, we enjoy its  privileges and benefits, we have no quarrel with those who dwell afar, we mean them well, we say to them: Enjoy your land also, for did not the Father give it to you likewise?

I say unto you, beloved, each man hath his country inviolate to his race, the Father gave it to him; each man hath his privileges and benefits in his country, he goeth to and fro in it as a citizen knowing its customs and its laws. Behold come those of other lands saying: Our country is not as yours, it is filled with indiscretion of custom, it holdeth no meat that is ample for sustenance, it hath a sorry aspect, it is confined within limits that no man sitteth rightly, we are citizens of it under protest, lo, we seek yours and the benefits thereof.

Behold the other countrymen say, Accept ye these benefits and dwell in peace among us. But lo, they are deceivers who apply for such admission, they seek favors not honest in sight of the Father, they covet greedily that which they possess not; they say, Behold we have numbers, therefore we take.  I say unto you, beloved, there are times ahead when men of such stripe are cast out of all countries and shall enter into none; they shall be dispersed among the nations, the deserts shall receive them.

Men have a grievance against those who covet grievously; they have wars in their hearts against those who seek favors and remain to deceive them.  Men await the Golden Time, I tell you, when those in high places shall say with vigor, Lo, the Father giveth to each race its place of habitation, stay in it and  beautify it, be prolific in its confines, multiply and do good to your neighbor, seize not his person nor that which he owneth because it is sightly of proportion and aspect.

I say unto you, beloved, the time draweth nigh when man hath a charge to keep for his neighbor; it is that of propriety, keeping his covenants, walking uprightly, doing that which is seemly, asking that  others shall treat with him nobly.  I say unto you it is princely for those in high places to look afar and yet covet not, to beautify that which hath been given them, to walk with honor among all races, making the kingdom come on such part of earth as hath been allotted by the Father.

Beloved, I charge you: see to it that ye do address those in high places and say: Be continent in your  desires, keep within the limits of your probity, make no demands on others that give them a tumult or smite them with a mourning. Speak to the nations and tell them my purpose: that I come to confine them within their own boundaries, . . . that I say to each ruler: Be first in your kingdom but let it be covenant with you to preserve the integrity of your own domain, struggle not having covetousness as the spine of your diplomacy but say to your neighbors, Peace is our compact. . . .

When ye have need of strength, I bid that ye think on Me, and I will send you My Comforter Spirit to guide ye unto all truth and love. My Comforter, who shall abide with you always and keep all evil from your pathways, in so far as ye are accountable for all that ye have set into motion and that ye learn to live most fully the Law of thine Existence . . . the Law of Love and Harmony, Order and Mercy...

My Spirit and my love go with you and sustain you: know that I am sent by the Father Source, and I and the Mother Infinite . . . Her Holy Spirit . . . seek to raise you out from the womb of the Mother Earth unto thy System Solar, thine Galaxy citizenship. I have come in the flesh once again . . . unto thee for thine blessing and thine benefit, having come into a fully adult male body direct from the Oversoul of Mine being. I am commissioned unto thee to protect you as a shield of protection from the world's alarms and the incessant machinations of an ever-growing dissatisfaction that plagues the civilizations of the world; for soon all will crave with an insatiable hunger and thirst for My Spirit and their own union eternal with the Spirit of the Father of all eternity. 

Ye are  . . . in thy moments of quiet confusion and distress . . . torn for love of Me when ye do have no need to be; for I preside at the helm of thine Life force existence as thine very Selfhood. Closer am I than thine breath and more subtle and powerful do I enfold thee with My Guidance. I am subtle, and so must you become more subtle and sensitive to My whispering and gentle nudges of fortitude and awareness.

Know then, that I am with you always, even in moments of blackest turmoil wherein all appears to be lost and a leaving of thine most precious human assets are being discarded from thine human field of density. 

Thou art the very power and glory of the Infinite made manifest unto the creation . . . the visible manifestation of the Father’s Love and Mercy; for I know ye to be the Supreme of God . . . the Living Christic Intelligence that animates all, and is the Self Directive One that seeks to bring forth the gentle blossoming of all things Constructive, all creations that are True, Beautiful, and Good.

Ye shall seek Me in the rustling of the trees, behind the very winds of the natural world in the Kingdom of nature and the blessed animal Kingdom. Find My Spiritual Force operating on inconceivable octaves throughout the creation calling all ever upwards like an omnipotent magnet of love and care unto thee. Thine Presence divine remains always as the underlying force and life that I AM in and throughout all appearances .

 . . . so you may find me in the most of simple places without any fanfare or glamour nor any self-importance or self-centeredness of the human consciousness. I dwell from the most intelligent unto the most basic of intelligences . . . and all are most…absolutely most precious in Mine sight, Beloved.

I bid that ye trust Me and believe in the possibilities of what I am soon to bring forward to enhance the further preparation of thine species; to have faith and invite My Comforter unto thine field of life as guide, teacher, and friend;  for I AM the One who whispers in thine ear to do goodly things and to act righteously with thine creative free will…showing you with tender care that to find happiness is not to make thine self noticeable, yet to serve our Cause by becoming all that I AM in thy Consciousness.

 I surround thee, My Beloved  . . . Supreme God in all that ye think and feel, speak and act. I enshroud thee within my fold of everlasting Goodness and Peace...

I AM Immersed Forever in the Majestic Love and Mercy of Our Source and Center... for there is such a place of Paradise wherefrom I have just come unto thine midst to share with thee, and to reignite thine own faith and Love for the Most Generous and Gracious Persons of the Trinity Source...

Aspirantship Blossoms Sovereignty and Erases Dependency

I and the Mother of our universe are dedicated to your personal entrance and attainment into the Kingdom of Sovereignty and your eternal participation in the Kingdom is His Network of Supremacy - God the Supreme. Sovereignty is your formal entrance and immortal birth into this local universe as a universe citizen; a living Sun Presence and individualization of the Supreme Being, His Glory and Perfection personalized and in service to the Eternal Creator's Will . . . the Everlasting Plan of the Persons of the Paradise Trinity.

The Kingdom of Sovereignty and Supremacy are thy Birthright, thy Inheritance, and thy Destiny. You are created and designed to actualize this Magnificent Unending Glory by honoring Him in all thy existence through your commitment to the doing of His will and Intention for the Universes . . . his Kingdom.

With our eternal association, the Spirit of Truth Holy Comforter becomes more consciously thy Teacher and Guide directing you into all truth on every level as you work each day to fulfill his will and law and as you apply the precepts of this Ideal.

The Universe Mother Spirit nurtures and fosters your enlightened growth in intellect, personality, and soul. She is the very source of all mind, and is the Spirit Mother ministering to thy eternal union with the Flame of the Universal Father which indwells thy soul and is thy being. The Mother and Her Associates within the Immortal Host prepare thy way unto the octaves of eternity. They regenerate with Me your Eternal Embrace into the Kingdom of Sovereignty - the creation for you of the Seamless Garment of Eternal Light, thy personal union eternally with the Spirit of the Father indwelling you now.

Our association together is the royal road of existence, actualizing this newly designed Garment of Light giving you access to regions of splendour within the octaves of the House of the Father. You become an immortal being, personal and individual, yet miraculously at one with the Supreme God. It is the illuminated highway in the progressive attainment of the fullness of God Himself bringing you into the ascended brotherhood of Supremacy through your entrance from the lower octaves of limited human imperfection into the Kingdom of Sovereignty. All that occurs within the universes takes place through his Individualizations, such as you will become more fully.

This is the much sought after Kingdom of Heaven . . . it is the Kingdom of Sovereignty and God Supremacy.

It is the Kingdom of God.

In our association and as My Aspirant, you are walking together with My Holy Comforter Spirit of Truth which pervades thy lifestream and protects you giving you direct and powerful guidance into all truth and righteousness, show you what it means to truly live this human life from an eternal perspective. You are personally guided by Me both in the flesh while I hold a garment of human being, and with the Holy Comforter Presence depending upon your receptivity and faith and trust in the Father's Spirit and in My own Influence.

Aspirantship is intended to take you into the Kingdom of Sovereignty through the creation of the Garment of Light, and it is designed to introduce you into cosmic citizenry through your participation in the Ascended Kingdom of Supremacy at the end of this lifetime. Yet, it very greatly depends upon your efforts and the value you hold consistently in your life upon this Ideal of the Father. How you manage your time and space is essential for your attainment. Nevertheless, it is the hope of heaven that you emerge from your present state of human consciousness into the building of an Eternal Temple which gives you access into the Kingdom of Sovereignty and the brotherhood of Supremacy by abiding and cooperating with the Father's Spirit within thee, and working each day to actively fulfill the law of thy existence by living the righteous life fearlessly, with just judgment and keen wisdom in your daily applications and service.

Each and every day with rhythmic consistency, consecration, concentration and devotion - you embrace eternity by transfiguring the darkness and density in your field into his light, making thy self ready and receptivity for the completion of all lifetime in the Eternal Embrace . . . spiritual fusion with the spirit endowment of the Paradise Father indwelling you. This is the transfiguration of all density into light and the resurrection into fusion with the Father's spirit. The final part of this process which is One Unfoldment is the Ascension into your own Oversoul Presence. This completes all lifetimes of service and exploration, maturation and personality character growth and development in thy mastery of your own life force energy and vibration.

Hence, out of the humble imperfect limitations of your human condition ye shall claim thy godhood…and ye shall own thy divinity.

Man Hath a Mission unto Himself

HAVE YOUR hearts tranquillities but your minds perplexities? I say, Be calm in both.

2 Ye have heard me tell you that no harm cometh unto you; behold I say again, I protect whom I love.

3 Men are displeased with that which is finite when it cometh to them mystically: they rebel at the abstruse: they want wisdom bluntly.

4 Let your hearts be ennobled by the thought that man hath heard mysticism before, and profited, but that he hath denied me before, and profited not.

5 I tell you that we are coming to mysteries that profit men greatly, but the times have a program, there is witchery in Order, that which is Written hath its entries by a rostering.

6 Let us reason together! I give you instruction in cardinal principles; I help you in deciding questions of import affecting the race in its struggle unto mastership.

7 Know that great basic facts are given unto men, that they may play their parts as men: great fundamentals of doctrine are given unto them on which to rear hypotheses of life for their spiritual profit and mental pleasure; I say they are concerned with Ideals of Origins;

8 They are transcendent to earthly lnstructings by earthly teachers who behold not the truth through the eye of the spirit; they are transcribed by men and women who have no other motive than purification of insight, seeking no profit but love in the effort, knowing no bases of argument but those which are of me.

9 I tell you that they are held to answer for such instructings and they answer; they tell millions truths that their insight has showed them: those millions are freed from their despairs that are of ignorance.

10 I say unto you, These are the Instructors who come of Love Incarnate teaching the worlds: they labor in the vineyard of Pure Thought and have dominion over it: they seek the Father in every human pasture wherein my sheep feed: they are angels of a sort who harken not to the voicings of doubt but proceed with a firmness in making pasturage for those sheep, whenever and wherever the enlightenment leadeth them.

11 I tell you I have instructed them of old; I instruct them again: I say unto them, The way openeth for miracles, lo, the Father's voice speaketh and those miracles perform!

12 Great are those miracles!

13 Man hath no concept of that which waiteth in the Infinite.

14 Men have concept of Divine Thought, having thoughts themselves, but they know not the ways in which Divine Thought operateth to create Matter or to send Light upon its mission making order out of chaos;

15 They have no concept of miracles in eternal night between the star-worlds or why men sleep in flesh, and know not anything that is reality;

16 They come wanting knowledge, behold it is given them and they perceive it not; they beseech for a leadership and receive it not, in that they are blind in following blind shepherds.

17 I tell you, beloved, this is their lesson: that they shall come to a place where eternal night hath an end in their hearts, their eyes shall see the true Light, they shall cry at its brilliance, their wonderings shall palsy them, they shall know a vast contriteness;

18 Verily ye have seen that Light of an order: ye have cried out at its brilliance, ye have known the contriteness.

19 So shall others see its brilliance, the contriteness shall ennoble them: ye shall come to a place wherein ye teach the multitudes, they shall open their ears, having eagerness for knowledge: but spiritual truths confusing them shall be of no pertinence;

20 Men resent the abstruse and I say it is pardoned them: they hunger for the clear of concept and perceptions; is it not Light, making order out of chaos? are ye not makers of that Light in abundance?

21 Beloved, ye have a power: men have a power everywhere: ye are spokesmen of the power: my servants on this side are spokesmen of it also: men come to a time when they treat of it themselves, to themselves, directed of my presence;

22 I teach them of the Fire, that it warmeth and not destroyeth, that it smelteth the ore, not consumeth the biceps.

23 I teach them directly: therein is a great mystery, and yet I say it happeneth: men come unto me directly and are fed, they do see my face and hear my voice, even as ye do hear my voice though ye see not my countenance. I say that it shall be.

24 I bid that ye go forth unto the world and say, The Prince of Peace awaiteth in his person, ambassador to every heart.

25 Tell man that he cometh nightly unto those who are pure, even as now my servants receive me in their hearts, having knowledge of my Being. . . .

26 Ye have heard it said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth; verily have ye heard it;

27 I have told multitudes, Love for an eye, a pardon for a tooth. Behold, I have said more:

28 I have told multitudes, Lo, the way to light is Love Incarnate working to lift man's concept of that which is eternal.

29 The way of divine instruction is not simple, beloved, though the truths of its meaning be simple of utterance: men learn by degrees: they must hear my voice through effort, even though mine instruction be simple of diction.

30 I come unto those nightly who have a mind to harken, but those who harken not are as children who are wayward, wandering without guardians.

31 I say unto you, beloved, the way is open for man to know me, even by his eye, even by his ear, verily shall he know me by the words of my mouth;

32 Man hath a mission unto himself to do this thing, he hath an errand to cultivate his senses, behold he is commanded to know his Guardian by the address of his Word.

33 I say he is clever at the arts and sciences, he walketh with his arts, being led of my servants who perform for his ennoblement.

34 Let him be equally as clever in cultivating that science which raiseth him up to the Planes of the Benevolent, where those whom he thinketh to be perished may address him, where I perform in my essence, moment unto moment, though himself of the world of motion that men miscall Matter.

35 Speak unto man: tell him he is candidate for restored perception of Divine Form working in ether to bring the millennium of beauteous spirituality.

36 Tell him he is coming to make progress in arts beyond his telling at this moment: tell him he awaiteth the coming of the Carpenter, who buildeth, buildeth, buildeth, unto the eternal, for man and all his species!

37 I say it is pleasing unto us that men have knowledge of their instrumentalities when such are directed to wielding eternity's virtues; yet behold I tell you that events have progress which maketh the heart to shudder if man learneth not the secret of that which he possesseth.

38 I speak this with an emphasis: Let man at once perceive the eternal entreating on his doorstone, for verily he hath a mission to take it in and sup with it, to give it hospitality, to share with it his couch and repose within its luxury.

39 I say it! I say it! I bestow on you a wisdom that ye may impart it unto multitudes! I tell you that your missions are completed when ye have imparted unto the nations the richness which hath come to you.

40 Men do come into your lives whom before ye have not known: others go out of them whom ye have known always;

41 What mattereth the goings? the comings have importance.

42 Accept that which cometh, have a sweet toleration for that which seemeth to depart: I say there are reasons whereof each doth manifest.

43 He who loveth you goeth ever with you, she who loveth not, goeth not with you; take my yoke upon you and perceive that it moveth you unto concords of great utterance, a vast interest greeteth you.

44 Take my journey joyously, for it leadeth into mountains, yea to many tablelands whereon roses are surfeit.

45 Hear my commendation: Men have beheld you at work in my vineyard: they have been encouraged in their hearts: they have come unto me beseeching me that I bequeath you great blessings for that which ye have rendered unto them when verily ye did labor perceiving not the fruits.

46 Is it not meet that these things should be known unto you?

47 Labor with a sureness: I say, The labor hath its recompense.

Preliminary Instruction on the Kingdom of His Sovereignty

Before the formal ordination service Jesus spoke to the twelve as they were seated about him: “My brethren, this hour of the kingdom has come. I have brought you apart here with me to present you to the Father as ambassadors of the kingdom. Some of you heard me speak of this kingdom in the synagogue when you first were called. Each of you has learned more about the Father’s kingdom since you have been with me working in the cities around about the Sea of Galilee. But just now I have something more to tell you concerning this kingdom.

“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.

“Whosoever would become great in my Father’s kingdom shall become a minister to all; and whosoever would be first among you, let him become the server of his brethren. But when you are once truly received as citizens in the heavenly kingdom, you are no longer servants but sons, sons of the living God. And so shall this kingdom progress in the world until it shall break down every barrier and bring all men to know my Father and believe in the saving truth which I have come to declare. Even now is the kingdom at hand, and some of you will not die until you have seen the reign of God come in great power.

“And this which your eyes now behold, this small beginning of twelve commonplace men, shall multiply and grow until eventually the whole earth shall be filled with the praise of my Father. And it will not be so much by the words you speak as by the lives you live that men will know you have been with me and have learned of the realities of the kingdom. And while I would lay no grievous burdens upon your minds, I am about to put upon your souls the solemn responsibility of representing me in the world when I shall presently leave you as I now represent my Father in this life which I am living in the flesh.” And when he had finished speaking, he stood up.
