Holy Communion Banquet Room, Nazareth Mission Church, Philadelphia, PA.

Shortly after the Rosebud Choir sang a beautiful inspirational patriotic composition, FATHER, in verification of same, arose and imparted this dynamic Sermon for the edification and unification of all mankind, wheresoever they are found, for truly, HE has come to make them One Family, Indivisible!

FATHER expresses His Deity in these dynamic Words of Spirit and Life, for truly, His deeds and actions prove it and His Power displays it, for whatsoever HE wills must be and must come at His Command, even as the Cosmic Forces of Nature obey HIM! Therefore, read these profound Words that only GOD could impart, for truly it is written that before one jot or tittle of His Word shall fail, heaven and earth shall pass away.

For the Greatness of Thy Power and Strength, Almighty GOD, we humbly thank THEE!

(The foregoing statements are those of the transcriber, and the following is the inspirational composition sung just before FATHER arose to speak:)

'Every day is Brotherhood day, there's no more races, creeds or colors; All in One and One in all, united to each other
We stand, for we are Indivisible!
Remember, he's your brother, you both are free;
And you are sons of a Living Democracy.
For side by side you fought and died
To make this world a better place In which to reside!
It is your blood and his in the red stripes of Old Glory;
His guiding star is right by yours in the blue;
Both your veins are filled with GOD'S Blood;
Your hearts are filled
With GOD'S Love,
And you are brothers now!'


(FATHER speaks as follows:)

PEACE EVERYONE! Good Health, Good Will, a Good Appetite, Good Manners, Good Behavior, All Success and All Prosperity! Life, Liberty and the Reality of Happiness! These and all other Blessings to you I bring. By the Unity of the Spirit, of Mind, of Aim and of Purpose through harmonization and by co-operation and participation I AM impregnating you with them! That which you vividly visualize, you tend to materialize. Here and now I have declared by transmission as you heard in that last number, that composition, "Every day is Brotherhood Day!"

Aren't you glad! ("So glad, FATHER Dear!" exclaimed the masses.)

We are not talking about some special set day for Brotherhood Day, for ye are brothers now! Out of every nation, language, out of every tongue and every people from every land and from every country, I AM drawing you together to prove to the world conclusively once and forever, You Are Brothers Now! Your are brothers by the virtue of the fact that

Out of One Blood GOD created all nations of men for to dwell upon the face of the whole earth.'


If the scientists can go down in the mineral Kingdom and bring out something through science and invention destructively to destroy all mankind, I can go down in the man kingdom -- in the hearts and lives of men and bring out something by invention to let them know they are brethren and brethren in reality! Aren't you glad! ("So glad, LORD!" came the enthusiastic response.

 

One Nation Indivisible

I have heard you say by declaration,

'We are One Nation, Indivisible!'


Few believe it, but since our document and inscription have said it, why, we believe it and we will make it a reality! You are truly one nation indivisible, when I get through with you! Aren't you glad! ("So glad, FATHER Dear!" again came the response.) By this, as it is right here, so shall it be all over this wide extended plane! None shall lack in GOD'S Abundance, for I have a-full and a-plenty for all!

By the Unity of the Spirit, of Mind, of Aim and of Purpose and by the recognition and the realization of GOD among you, such a conviction will solve your every problem and will adjust matters satisfactorily for you; will bring an abolition to all warfare and bloodshed as well as to all race riots and lynchings and every sort of an uprising, and envy and resentment! Aren't you glad! ("So glad, LORD!" came the eager reply.)

You do not see very much of it around here, do you? An expression of LOVE materialized, reproduced and personified, and the universality of this shall be known from shore to shore and from land to land and all kindreds of the earth eventually shall live in peaceful and quiet resting places where there will be no more warfare and bloodshed and no more panics, famines and not even any more depression! I shall stop the eruptions in the volcanic zones after a while! Aren't you glad! ("Oh, so glad, LORD!" shouted the multitude.) No more tornadoes, and no more floods and no more storms playing havocly through the land! Aren't you glad! ("So glad! So glad!" again shouted the masses.) For GOD shall move as he is moving right here under this jurisdiction, with a mighty powerful and infinite loving hand, and the cosmic forces of nature will be destructive no longer! Aren't you glad! ("So glad, GOD Almighty!" echoed the assembly.)

 

 

Atomic Energy

Get a-hold of this mental and spiritual Atomic Energy and bring it out effectively and we will have flood control without legislation! Aren't you glad! ("Yes, GOD Almighty!" came the response.) We will have storm control without legislation and we will have tornado control without legislation! We shall have volcano control! The volcanic control of the universe is here now! Aren't you glad! ("So glad, GOD Almighty!" shouted the masses.)

We shall have, in outward expression, the mastery over every situation, for GOD, in His Mighty Presence, automatically brings things into subjection and these that hear, believe HIM and let HIM, naught will hurt them nor harm them! It is a wonderful place in which to live, is it not?

I say, you are Brothers now! Aren't you glad! ("So glad, LORD!" came the response.) It is no longer a supposition, no longer to be emphasized superstitiously and suppositionally! "Well, maybe some day we will be brothers." But we are brothers now! By this, all men shall live in peaceful and quiet resting places, for I have brought an abolition to localization! Aren't you glad! ("So glad, Almighty GOD!" shouted the happy assembly.) Bringing an abolition to localization, there will be no slum conditions in our respective vicinities! Aren't you glad! ("So glad, LORD!" again came the happy reply.) Hence, there will be no more lacks and wants and limitations, for GOD in the midst of you is mighty to save, and truly, I did say,

'The Spirit of the consciousness of the Presence of GOD is the Source of all supply!'


You may believe it if you wish to, because it is a fact, and what I have said, these are facts and figures too stout to be denied! The Spirit of the Consciousness of the Presence of GOD truly is the Source of all supply and HE can and HE will, as HE does, satisfy every good desire! >

 

Where the Body Is

By this, I can emphatically and definitely say, you are brothers now! And I have the Abundance of the fullness of the consciousness of Good, and you find no space vacant of the fullness thereof! You cannot find any space vacant in this Holy Communion Hall because of the Presence of your GOD; for where the BODY is, there shall the eagles be gathered together! Even this was predicted back in the prophetic age; even through the Law it was predicted:

'The Law shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver from between his feet until Shiloh comes; but when Shiloh comes, the gathering of the people shall be unto HIM.'


It looks something like it here now! And GOD has also Prejudice Control! Aren't you glad! ("So glad, FATHER Dear!" shouted the eager assembly.) Talk about Food Control, Control the Water and the like by legislation and other control, but oh, how marvelous it is to realize, Someone is here now Who has the Mastery over every Situation and has Prejudice Control! HE also has Bigotry Control, if you take it from a Religious point of view! Aren't you glad! ("So glad, GOD Almighty, so glad!" again shouted the assembly.) I Control the bigotry in the hearts and lives of men because of their Religious Prejudice as being termed Bigotry! I Control those things and bring them into subjection and unite them together and we stand now as one man at Jerusalem; Americanism, Democracy, Christianity and Judaism as Synonymous!

 

All Men United

Then when this is done, all of My fellow citizens of every national, or would be called as a racial abstraction shall be united together as I have them here jurisdictionally, and all over wheresoever I preside! Aren't you glad! ("Yes, LORD, so glad!" came the happy response.) Americanism, democracy, Christianity! But it is even more than that! Americanism, Christianity, democracy, brotherhood and Judaism as synonymous!

So then I say, let us continue to realize, you are brothers now! You do not have to wait until, as some have thought and said, until the time you come down and quarter arms with death, but we shall enjoy brotherhood now! Aren't you glad! ("yes, lord, so glad!") shouted the masses.)

By this we shall have the abundance of the fullness of the consciousness of good from every angle expressible and find no space vacant of the fullness thereof. And as afore said, e pluribus unum I stand in the name of GOD and of man. I thank you.
