The Mount of the House of the Lord

The Mount of the House of the Lord


FATHER delivered the following marvelous Message of Scientific Truths, that this wonderful Gift of Love from HIM might reach others who are not privileged to sit under the sound of the Voice that charms our fears and bids our sorrow cease--the Voice that sounds like music to our ears for it is Life and Love and Peace.

FATHER Speaks as follows:

 

 

PEACE, EVERYONE: I believe we all realize by this time of day, it is Wonderful--we realize there is Redemption through the wonderful Savior--("FATHER DIVINE!" was the enthusiastic outburst from the masses.)

While sitting and looking over this vast audience I thought of the many different inventions that have been invented since the invention of electricity. But this same one that does not only produce the human voice, but it actually produces the DIVINE LIFE of GOD and materializes the same--embodying the "Angel Life" that has been on the Angelic Plane, bringing it down on the material plane among men and personifying that which was angelic, that which was spiritual, that which was mental and that which was mystical, bring it to the common conscious realization of the children of this people. Oh, it is such a privilege!

MY thought ran back to the invention of electricity, how the invention of the Victrola came along. It is Wonderful! How the different laboratories and studios after the invention of electricity, have brought out many new inventions, producing and bringing into outer expression the actual practicality of electricity--that which once was being termed as lightning--something that could not be handled by the skill of man, much more than that of by the physical hands of man.

Oh, it is such a privilege to see the invention of electricity as the fore light and the forerunner of the outward expression and the recognition of GOD'S Presence transmitted. To see the many different attachments that have been invented to be connected to, and applied to electricity, which in a parable is but the mystery of GOD'S Presence among HIS people, telling you how the great Inventor of Life, of Love, of Wisdom, of Knowledge and of Understanding, of Good Manners and of Good Behavior could and would produce all of these qualities in HIS Laboratory of Salvation!

How HE would produce them! Not only produce them , but would materialize them; not only materialize them, but would personify them and cause each and all of these desirable qualities to become to be a living factor in the hearts and lives of men daily expressed.

You can see the very outward expression of the lightning since it has been harnessed. You can see it reflecting itself as effectively and more profitably than it was before it was harnessed. The lightning did not give you very much light before it was harnessed. The lightning did not give you very much power before it was harnessed. It was in a great measure impractical, unprofitable and good-for-nothing, saving to put a fear and a regard in the mind of the superstitious people that they might believe in the Infinite, but it was not practical as it has been and as it now is since it has been harnessed.

So it was with the Spirit of GOD'S Presence. So long as GOD was something mystical, imaginary in the mystical region, GOD apparently was unreal to the consciousness of the children of men; that is why they would live in vice and crime and sin and believed in GOD as something mystical in Heaven, but yet they had no fear of HIM. They did not fear GOD because they thought HE was so far away. But at this day and at this time since GOD has been Personified, there has been a great change not only in the mind and spirit of man, but there is a great change on the material plane.

Conditions change completely! Your physical bodies have changed. You look different. You feel different. You act different, and I mean personally. It is Wonderful! This is the great significance of the Personification of GOD. By this recognition you are brought into subjection to the Law of the Spirit of Life personally, and you will live Evangelically! By living Evangelically, you will love your neighbor and you will love ye one another. It is made practical, it is made real, it is made tangible! It has been personified that all might realize there is a reality in the ALMIGHTY of Whom we are speaking. Living in this Light, living in this Spirit, living in the consciousness of IT, we find everything is all right now.

In this great Laboratory of Salvation we are fixing and re-mixing and dumping everything in the melting pot and melting it together, for the Universal Redemptor of man has condescended to come, that GOD might dump it all with you all in the melting pot and make a chemical that will be the redemption of the whole of humanity.

This great Laboratory, this great Studio where all things are made by the Hand of GOD Himself, by HIS Spirit and by HIS Love that is not in heaven some place, but that is here and now on earth, this is what stirs up the nations because of the Dominion and the Spirit that predominates, which causes all of the people collectively--practically all of them--to accept of this Message and realize there is no redemption without it. Now isn't that Wonderful!

The time cometh and now is, all will eventually openly declare this is the Standard of Salvation, and without it, we will not accept of any other, for GOD ALONE SHALL REIGN! Prejudice, bigotry, hatred, resentment, jealously and all of those detestable tendencies have been reigning long enough, but GOD has come with this Magnetic Current of Infinite Love to dispel such from the very presence of humanity: To dispel it by His Omniscient Light of Love whichever, that HE is spreading forth throughout the world, that all mankind might see and know there is a reality in living in and unto GOD forevermore.

You are living in GOD and GOD is living in you. That is why when I AM happy, you are happy too. When I move spontaneously and unthoughtfully automatically, you move too. That is the mystery. Get in ME, if you are not in ME, and LET ME get in you; as I AM, so can you be-- that is, if you will follow ME. This does not necessarily mean to follow ME Personally, but follow after the Light of this Understanding that I have given; be governed by your highest intuition.

When you are wholeheartedly consecrated and sacrificed as a living sacrifice to GOD, your soul and your body, when you are moved, you will be moved by the Spirit of GOD'S Presence. You will be governed by your highest intuition; you will move by your own volunteer volition for that MOVER is in you. This will be accomplished--in other words, when this will and shall have been accomplished, you will bring forth the CHRIST to fruition in your physical bodily form, and your bodies will prove to the world conclusively, you are the temples of the Living GOD. And GOD not only has said He would walk in them and dwell in them but GOD will be walking and talking in them! That is what it is all about. That is why you Love ME so!

Remember, I AM not confined and I AM not bound to MY Personal Appearance as an Individual. Remember, this is a FUNDAMENTAL, a PRINCIPLE that is transmittable and it has been transmitted and reincarnated that others might enjoy it and that others might be redeemed thereby--as something that can be dialed in on as a broadcast message. When it is broadcast from the Broadcasting Station, if you have a radio receiving set, if everything is all right about it, if you dial in on that message you can get it. So it is when your hearts and minds are adjusted right, when they are stayed on the Fundamental.

When the electric battery of your souls are charged and all of the connections connected properly, the very Spirit of GOD'S Presence to you can be transmitted and you will have no longer need to contact ME Personally, for the Spirit of MY Presence is sufficient. That is why I can Love you so, because I do not have to be where you are personally, yet I can be with you and I can be in you, and you can be in ME.

Even though you may be thousands of miles away from ME Personally, yet you have never felt such a Love before; a Love that causes you to live right and a Love that causes you to do right, and a Love that causes you to be right. A Love that can control you with all of the millions in Love with the Fundamental, yet by you being in Love with HIM, you would not do a thing you thought HE would not want you to do.

That is why this Love is so fascinating. It is fascinating them so that it might bring them into subjection that they might live Evangelically, and not only Evangelically, but that they might live Angelically and express the Spirit of the Angels on the earth plane and become to be the personification of them that were invisible and mystical and imaginary. I will cause mankind to realize the presence of the Angels on the earth plane.

Mr. Edison produced the human voice on metal and other materials, but there is ONE Who can produce the Angelic Spirit, the Angelic Life, the DIVINE Life and the very Divinity of the Infinite and materialize it as well as Edison could bring it down--the voice of man on tables of metal that they could be heard and seen after many days. In this great Laboratory, in this great Studio, I AM producing the Life of GOD, the Mind of GOD, the Spirit of GOD, the Love of GOD, the Nature of GOD, the Dominion of GOD and the Power of GOD, and I AM personifying them all, for I have bodies to personify them in; not only so, but I will personify the whole Angelic Choir. That is why you are singing so sweetly. When you are singing so sweetly, it is the outward expression of the "Angelicalization" of the Spiritual Choir--the Angelic Choir GOD has materialized, GOD has personified and GOD has visibilated, that they might be visibly expressed and manifested on the earth plane, that GOD in man might be seen.

I AM calling down from the mystical spiritual region, from the mystical mental and psychic planes, every good and desirable expression that was existing in the mystical mental, spiritual and psychic planes, that GOD might express and manifest them that the children of men might enjoy them.

This is not calling up the dead, but I AM personifying the Life, for the very Words that I speak unto you, they are Spirit and they are Life. I AM personifying Life and materializing and visibilating Life and tangibilating Life, that it might be visible, tangible and practical, that it might be visible, tangible and practical, that it might be called natural. That is what it is for, therefore, we will have all of the invisible Angels of Light who were spoken of by Jesus the CHRIST, and we will tangibilate them in the fulfillment of the Scripture. Jesus said, if He would petition His FATHER, HE could and would dispatch Him ten thousand legions of Angels.

The FATHERSHIP Degree has brought the Legions of Angels, and the FATHERSHIP Degree in the great Laboratory of Salvation is personifying them, giving them bodies as it pleases HIM. It is sown in weakness, it is raised in power. It is sown a natural body, but when it is resurrected it comes forth a spiritual body, for GOD will give it a body as it pleases HIM.

I have not said anything yet to what I will say, but out of all I will say, it will not be a percent, of a percent, of a percent, of a percent of a fraction of a grain of what I will DO Universally for others as well as for you. I thank you.

 

PEACE, EVERYONE: In THIS Studio and Laboratory we are making things up well, and we are making everything we want. It is Wonderful! Every good and desirable expression, every good and desirable blessing, every imagination that was and all that are good, we will personify them, yea, materialize them, yea, make them real here and now on the material plane, for this is the great Factory, the great Laboratory of Salvation where we can make real, spiritual things, where we can make real, mental things.

We are tangibilating them as it was in the Beginning when the Spirit was the only outward expression of things, making it known as Spirit. GOD spake and GOD moved without a Bodily Form--HE said,

'Let there be light; and there was light." - 'Let dry land appear.'

Let the invisible earth become to be tangible, GOD tangibilated the invisible earth, that man might see and know

From the earth GOD took the dust of the ground and formed man, according to the Scripture. GOD visibilated that which was invisible--tangibilated the invisible and made it REAL apparently, where it was not real; so it has been a mystery in all of the religions. GOD has been a mystery and all of the Angels have been mysterious as something mystical, but GOD has made it plain, for it has long since been said and I AM saying it again:

'GOD is His Own Interpreter and HE will make it plain.'

Haven't I made it plain?

I AM visibilating the Angelic Choir. The FATHER, Son and the Holy Ghost, and everything what was in the spiritual realm, I will visibilate and tangibilate them and cause them to be real, tangible and practical, that the earth expression of things might be ruled and controlled by the heavenly state of consciousness.

That is the mystery of our Righteous Government. Bodies that will be called men, bodies that will be called women, will be walking and talking through which GOD will be ruling and controlling the masses with Righteousness, Justice and Truth. That which I have called into expression for you when I have arisen from time to time and said: "Righteousness, Justice and Truth, Good Health, Good Will and a Good Appetite for you," this I have produced in your consciousness and in your consideration from time to time that you might begin materializing both it and them, that you might become to be the Personification of every POSITIVE Spoken Word I have Spoken!
