My dear Dr. Burton:

Your communication as posted on the 17th instant, together with the enclosure, have been received; and I AM glad to observe that you have been Spiritually awakened into the consciousness of a Higher Life -- a life to be attained by all mankind; that is, all who live. For as you dwell on things of the Spirit, keeping your mind lifted to contact the vibrations of a Higher Law, many mysteries which were hidden through the ages will be revealed to you: and the Knowledge of the TRUTH of Life is, indeed, a priceless pearl. It was predicted that this would be, however, for JESUS the CHRIST said:

'When HE, the SPIRIT of TRUTH, is come, HE will guide you into all TRUTH." (St. John 16:13)


Thus, when the SPIRIT of TRUTH has come to you without and within, there and then I will make known the riches of My Mysteries as was Biblically declared:

'Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to His Saints: "To whom GOD would make known what is the riches of the Glory of this Mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of Glory." (Col. 1:26, 27)


The Christ in you is the Hope of Glory and is the Fount of all Wisdom, Knowledge and Understanding. And through My Great Resurrecting POWER I have resurrected the Christ in the hearts and lives of millions, converting them to a state of being wherein they are no longer subject to the law of mortality, but to the Law of Righteousness and Peace instead of violence and destruction. So then I say, I have a Law above all laws, yea, this Law of which Paul the Apostle spoke as a committee of one for all humanity, saying,

'For the Law of the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from sin and death." (Romans 8:2)


By this Law I have harnessed the mentality of humanity! And when the mental, spiritual and physical forces are harmoniously combined, focused and exerted in the Positive Direction, the inevitable results are Peace, Life and Happiness with the Abundance of the Fullness of all Good Things for the upbuilding of one and all. Through such I AM manifesting Myself in the actuated words of expression, for I AM Spiritualizing the material and materializing the Spiritual. I AM bringing into outer expression the things which were and always have been, but were not revealed to the conscious mentality of the children of men until I condescended to come in a Tangibilated PERSONIFIED BODILY FORM to loose the ties that bound them to mortality and to lift them to the realms where they could receive the inspirations as transmitted from the Mind of My SPIRIT and the Spirit of My MIND. I have the Key to the hidden mysteries of the world, yea, the universe; and through ME all inspirations come.

I AM the Way, the TRUTH and the Light.'
Therefore, when My RIGHTEOUS LAWS are heeded, lived and practiced, then and there


My Limitless Blessings are in evidence, as I AM the Source of all Supply. Now, the inventions of men, such as mentioned in the newspaper article you enclosed, are something unique as far as man's understanding is concerned, and they are good for those who are not above the mortal law and have not been born again into a Higher Unfoldment, yea, the Christ Consciousness; for they may lead them on to this Perfect State of Expression whereto I AM calling all the kindreds of the earth. It is written in the Scripture in verification of this:

'Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith "But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster. "For ye are all the Children of GOD by faith in Christ Jesus. (Galatians 3:24-26)


Hence, anyone who is spiritually inclined will be able to observe that the many scientific discoveries and inventions on the material plane are but a parable of the mystery of that which is invisible and is on the spiritual plane. Thus, science and invention are proving the reality of that which is invisible.

Just as men of skill and ability in science are delving into the hidden recesses of things unknown to the human mind and bringing out many inventions and discoveries for the comfort and convenience of man, so will the mystery of GOD be revealed on the material plane for the benefit and advancement of humanity universally. It has been said, and truly it is so, that

'There is nothing new under the sun.'


Things are merely brought forth from the invisible realm to the visible expression of things materially manifested. And when one X-rayly beholds the visibility of things and penetrates the outer shell of the expression of things they will see that the invisibility of it and them is actually the reality of them. The invisibleness of them is the intangibleness of them and the impracticalness of them, yet they are just as real in their dormant state as in the visible state. For whether men continue to live or whether they cease to function, the reality of things on the material plane will still remain -- even though they lie dormant and inexpressive. Yet, in their latent state, they are just as available and capable of being brought forth and into outer expression as they were before their discovery of man.

The progress and advancement of mankind cannot and does not hinder or retard ME! If all creation would go into oblivion, My SPIRIT could recreate it over again without any other expression to help!

According to your request I AM returning the enclosures you desired to have. Thus, with best wishes, this leaves ME as I desire all of the peoples of the earth to have the privilege of becoming to be, for I AM Well, Healthy, Joyful, Peaceful, Lively, Loving, Successful, Prosperous and Happy in Spirit, Body and Mind and in every organ, muscle, sinew, joint, limb, vein and bone and even in every ATOM, fibre and cell of MY BODILY FORM.


Respectfully and Sincere, I AM,
REV. M. J .DIVINE, Ms. D., D. D.
