"This is the City of 'Brotherly Love,' to it I have Come to bring to man, the conscious realization of the actual materialization of their version concerning this City, 'Brotherly Love.' That is the version of the masses of the people, practically all over the Country, and in other Countries, that this is the City of 'Brotherly Love.' It is indeed wonderful! Because it is the City of 'Brotherly Love,' I AM looking forward to see the Unification and the actual materialization and the Personification of Brotherly Love Universally. This is the Mission of CHRIST for which I CAME, to bring you into the Unity of the Spirit, of Mind, of Aim and of Purpose, and that is to Abolish All Discriminations and Segregations among the nations, that they all may be as 'ONE man at Jerusalem.' It is indeed wonderful!

"If you notice the Scriptures, of which the most of the inhabitants of Philadelphia have, you will recall your thoughts to the Mystery of the Day of Pentecost, they were all with one accord, at Jerusalem. They unified themselves together, for the Holy Spirit to descend upon them. The Same Spirit is calling you today; calling humanity to the Unity of the Spirit, of the Mind of the Aim and of Purpose, to Crush the Head of the Serpent; not only to Bruise It, but to Crush It. It is indeed wonderful!

"I CAME TO CRUSH THE HEAD OF THE SERPENT. It is indeed wonderful! ...PREJUDICE IS THAT SERPENT, that the seed of the woman shall bruise the head of. It is indeed wonderful! Bruising the head of the serpent is not enough. I CAME TO CRUSH IT. It is indeed wonderful!"
