Dining in the Great Hall, The Mount of the House of the Lord.
The inhabitants of Philadelphia can but say they have never witnessed a more beautiful Peace Demonstration in their city or anywhere else, than that of FATHER'S on Saturday and Sunday. The parade on Sunday, commencing at Olympia Athletic Club Auditorium, down South Broad Street to Christian Street, to 16th Street, to South Street, to 22nd Street, to Dickinson Street to the starting point, brought out thousands of interested spectators who crowded the streets and some even broke through the ranks of the paraders just to get a look at HE Who had aroused the enthusiasm and the curiosity, the mind and the attention of every citizen in the City of Philadelphia. Some who could get closer, they thronged around the Deusenberg, not only to get a good look at FATHER, but to shake HIS Hand.
The City of Brotherly Love itself was taken by storm, and as FATHER rode through each street, HIS Beauty and Handsomeness fascinated each and every bystander and as HE passed by, many of them stood spellbound, for some were seeing FATHER Personally for the first time. "The New Day" was given out by the followers all along the line of march, and the people were not only glad to receive them and appreciated having them, but most of them were actually hungry for them, so to speak. Many even swarmed around the Deusenberg to receive a "New Day" or a handbill from FATHER Personally. So much was going on, it is impossible for one person to tell all of the happenings for the two days.
So much for the demonstration, so far. In order that the people could get a better view of FATHER Personally, as the followers were disbanding and marching into the hall, the top of the Deusenberg was taken off and FATHER stood up on HIS Seat and viewed the marchers as they marched in very orderly and Peacefully into the auditorium. For the benefit of the many visitors who had just about packed the auditorium, FATHER condescended to remain on the rostrum for a while before leaving for the Hotel to serve a Banquet. After remaining a while, FATHER left the hall and went to the beautiful Hotel.
Along the line of march, as "The New Day" was given out to the bystanders from the Deusenberg, it was made mention to them that the meeting would be at the Olympia Hall, and as FATHER gave out some handbills to a group, HE told them HE would tell them whom to vote for. Well, in this beautiful and dynamic Message, given at the Banquet Table and the one HE delivered in the auditorium, FATHER reveals in plain English the Mystery of whom we should vote for and whom we should represent! The politicians may not have expected it in this manner as was brought out by FATHER in both of the Messages mentioned, but they asked for it and they got it! For all who are not fortunate enough to hear these Lectures proofread, they may find them recorded in this week's issue of"The New Day," Thursday, October 31st, 1940 A.D.F.D.
(The foregoing statements come from the transcriber, after which FATHER speaks as follows:)
PEACE, EVERYONE! Good Health, Good Will and a Good Appetite and the very spirit and the energy that will give you Life and Liberty! This evening once again we are here in this great City of Brotherly Love, demonstrating and manifesting that which we are preaching and teaching and we are putting it forth into expression and causing others to become to be partakers of this great contagion!
Oh, how glorious it is to know you have something the world can be proud of! This is not a supposition, for I have not been teaching you the superstitions of a suppositional version but I AM teaching you and stressing the actuality and the reality of that of which I AM actually experiencing and I AM causing you and others to concentrate on it and become to be partakers of this of Which I AM stressing!
When I speak into your consideration and into your conscious conviction, the realization of the tangibilization of GOD HIMSELF, I have given you the keynote to salvation that will solve every problem. Aren't you glad? No longer walking in the darkness and misunderstanding, but by such a recognition your problems are solved and your understanding advances and you become to be superinteligent by such a recognition.
When I say Good Health, Good Will and a Good Appetite--this is not merely as an assertion, this is not as a salutation alone, but as a declaration to you I claim; I bring into your life, into your business and into your affairs, Good Health, Good Will and a Good Appetite; I cause you to express that which I stress and cause you to recognize the tangibilization of that of which I AM teaching, for I have tangibilated, materialized and have personified MY fondest and most exaggerated assertion. I will not say any thing that I cannot materialize!
Anything that can be surmised can be recognized and that which can be recognized can be materialized and that which can be materialized can be realized!
Oh, how glorious it is to live in such a recognition, knowing definitely, the tangibilization of GOD is a living reality made real, tangible and practical, that GOD might tangibilate and materialize the desirable blessings of HIS creation and bring into your experience, your fondest imagination and verify that of which was spoken of by the apostle saying--
'Now unto him that is able to do exceedingly abundantly, above all that you could ask or think...'
It is a privilege to know, you cannot think more than what GOD can do! From whence
cometh your thoughts of your advanced civilization? From whence cometh your human
advanced light of this civilization and from whence cometh your wisdom, knowledge
and understanding? From wheresoever such hails, even from the selfsame place
can come forth into expression the tangibilization and the materialization, yea,
the personification of your fondest imagination!
As I was saying this afternoon or this evening, in your religious infancy, you thought many things, even as the children did in your early days of your early life. You thought there was a Santa Claus. You believed in such falsity that had been handed down to you orthodoxly and traditionally, that had caused you to be prenataled in falsehood, dishonesty and untruth; but oh, how glorious it is to know--when you became a man and a woman, you no longer looked for Santa Claus as something that would only come on Christmas Eve.
You found out all of your parents; and other teachers' teaching was a superstitious falsehood handed down traditionally, but GOD from those cursed evasions and deviations has actually lifted you and given you your real emancipation! You lived in that state of consciousness and believed sincerely (until you knew better) that Santa Claus was something that would come on Christmas or Christmas Eve and climb down the chimney and bring you many presents.
You have been taught that from your infancy, in an effort to cause you to do better, to live soberly as a child and free from disobedience and free from the spirit of dishonesty and mistrustfulness; but oh, how glorious it was when you learned the truth concerning the mystery! But a good many of you endeavored to reproduce and re-convey and transmit and hand down to your children traditionally, the same falsehood that had led you erroneously!
But oh, how glorious it is--the light has truly come as Isaiah said concerning this Mystery--
'Rise and shine, for your Light has come and the glory of GOD has risen upon us.'
That is the Mystery! Then, since this light has come concerning Santa Claus,
allow that little simple fairy tale as a story of falsehood, to teach you a lesson
concerning your Heaven and your GOD! You thought your GOD was up in Heaven some
place and would come on judgment day, and Heaven was some place geographically
further away than any other place could be, for it was above everything else
described or surmised!
You could not imagine anything to be above Heaven and GOD. In such a superstitious version, you groped in darkness and in ignorance, even though GOD had said through the prophets, the sages and the seers--
'GOD is not a GOD afar off, but GOD is a GOD at hand!'
Telling you definitely, GOD was not far away as described by man, but GOD is
a GOD at hand. Aren't you glad? By this you should have learned and should have
known GOD as a Living Reality made real, tangible and practical, some day would
be as you are, even as the Gospel said--
'As HE is, so are we in this present world.'
Find yourself! Wake up out of your nightmare of human superstition, out of
the mortal version and I will give you liberty and I will give you a privilege
and will give you happiness, success and prosperity and will lift you physically,
socially and economically and give you real emancipation here and now!
That is what I came for, to draw from your fondest imagination of that imaginary Heaven to the earth plane, your conscious recognition and the realization of your fondest suppositional version of GOD and of Heaven; to bring into your own experience and into the experience of the children of men, that of which was spoken of by the angels as they sang while the wise men were going down to Bethlehem--
'Glory to GOD in the highest and on earth PEACE, Good Will to men.'
This is it for which and of which I came, to bring Peace on Earth and Good Will
to Men and to establish that which was in the fondest imagination of the children
of men of all of the religions, right here on earth, that which they had surmised
as Heaven!
Aren't you glad? Taking your eyes out of the sky, for I have long since declared and I re-declare the same--the sky is nowhere and is nothing, but is everywhere where there is nothing!
Tell your educators I said it! Tell your critics I said it! Tell all of them who are trying to get you to draw your mind into nowhere and into nothing, into superstition so you can get nothing. I said, take their eyes out of the nowhere and that nothing and place their minds on the immaculate and infinite omniscient Presence of the INFINITE ONE here and now among the children of men!
I will lead them out and will assure them that they will have something! But the reason for a good many of the so-called religious people talking about, "We poor `so-and-so' people don't have nothing!"--you will not have anything as long as you keep your minds and your attention in the invisible, supernatural (as you term it to be) sky, which is nowhere and is nothing; therefore you are going nowhere and going to nothing!
I came to bring all of that of which was termed religion, into your conscious recognition and realization and cause you on earth to live soberly, righteously and Godly and happy and have all of the spirituality that your fondest imagination had brought you suppositionally, and cause it to be made real, tangible and practical for you! Aren't you glad?
Oh, that all mankind, not only those of the inhabitants of this democracy, would but accept of MY Message--I would emancipate not only the Western Hemisphere as MY proposal by uniting the three Americas, but I would emancipate every living creature in civilization and give them a happy admittance around the Throne of GOD where GOD is, in the abundance of the fullness of the consciousness of GOOD!
Tell your friends and your neighbors and all of the under-privileged, I came to emancipate them and to give them their real freedom from all superstition and from their suppositions and cause their fondest suppositional version to be made a recognition and a realization for them, by bringing it down from their imaginary Heaven for which they long have prayed!
You know you have been taught to pray from your early existence--
'Our Father Who art in Heaven, Hallowed be Thy Name.
Thy Kingdom come,
Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven.'
I came to bring it down here on earth for you! That is what I came for! I came
to bring your fondest imagination concerning Heaven, to the earth plane and to
make it real, tangible and practical and good for something, instead of remaining
in your supposition and in your mental concept in superstition and bringing into
your efforts every effort made something as nothing, as someone beating the air
and getting nowhere!
Humanity in orthodoxy and even partisanly, they are as men getting on a merry-go-round; they may go on today and they do not get anywhere. I came to take you somewhere! Truly might have Jesus in the Son-ship Degree said
'Come unto ME all the ends of the earth, for I AM GOD and beside ME there is none else.'
The same Spirit is speaking today! I Came to take you somewhere! I Came to
emancipate you from superstition and give you your real emancipation and especially
those of you who need ME--the under-privileged and the non-privileged and the
mistreated and the down-trodden, the unfortunate and unprofitable servants of
men--I came to free both you and them!
I have declared, by the unity of Spirit, of Mind, of Aim and of Purpose we will bring an abolition to all division among us! By bringing an abolition to all division among us, we will also bring an abolition to all undesirable conditions, to all lacks, wants and limitations and will establish your going in the land of the living and will give you a-full and a-plenty, as I do MY true followers!
All who will live according to MY Teaching by living soberly, righteously and Godly as true followers, I will give you your real emancipation from every lack and want and limitation. I will give you peace and joy and happiness and I have brought Heaven to you for which you have prayed! Aren't you glad? Jesus taught you to pray and Christendom has been praying it from the time Jesus said it--
'Let Thy Kingdom come and Thy Will be done, on earth...'
calling GOD'S Kingdom from that Heavenly version and from the Heavenly concept
concerning the Mystery. That is why I disapprove of any person or persons when
they use the words, "Your Heavens,"
because they are in mortal consciousness and are speaking discountingly concerning
ME; they are speaking ignoringly concerning ME, saying, "Heavens!" I
came to bring the kingdom out of the heaven!
I brought the Kingdom out of the Heaven! The Heaven as described by men is only a superstitious version according to their suppositions, and the sky, as I have afore said, is nowhere and is nothing, but everywhere where there is nothing! Therefore I Came to bring the Kingdom out of that place and the place is here on the earth! I AM not bothering about politicians--I have brought the kingdom to the earth and none can hinder ME! Matters not who is elected and matters not who is rejected, matters not who is defeated and matters not who accepts of election and is enthroned--I have my kingdom and I have your own!
What said Jesus to Peter concerning the Mystery on the mount of transfiguration?
'Peter (or Simon), I give you the keys of the Kingdom
that which you shall loose on earth shall be loosed in Heaven;
that which you bind on earth shall be bound in Heaven.'
I have the keys of the kingdom! I have brought the kingdom down from heaven and
those who are in Heaven shall hear MY Voice and shall come down from that imaginary
version in the superstitious, suppositional kingdom of men and shall come to
the earth plane in the recognition of the materialization and the realization
of things.
I would like to say to the City of Brotherly Love: although there is much prejudice existing here as elsewhere in a great measure, I came to emancipate the people and give them their real emancipation! If they will trust ME, I will lead them out and give them victory over every undesirable condition and lift them up and establish their going in the land of the living!
Although they may be called under-privileged, may have been called under-privileged, I have declared to you and to others, if you will allow ME to, I will enact the Bill of Rights in every community for you, even as I have for these of Mine under MY Personal Jurisdiction and go forth conquering and to conquer and will continue to conquer!
The sky I say, is nowhere and is nothing! You are beating the air, trying to go to Heaven--going nowhere up there! In your infancy I say, you have been taught to believe in Santa Claus and believe in many things, merely according to the suppositional versions of your ancestors handing down those superstitious versions traditionally, causing you to grope in darkness of misunderstanding and in ignorance, thinking the sky is some consolidated ceiling as the ceiling of a building! Thinking you can go up there and crack the sky and go through into Heaven!
The sky is nowhere and is nothing, but everywhere where there is nothing! So long as you live in that version, you are in the superstitious mental concept of things and you cannot make your advances and especially on earth, because you cannot build on earth and live in Heaven! I mean, in that suppositional Heaven!
Oh, how glorious it is to realize, I have brought down from the imaginary sky and from your imaginary Heaven, your fondest imagination and now as you thought you loved Jesus in the sky, you love ME better! What said Jesus concerning the mystery?
'No man has ascended up to Heaven, except HE that came down from Heaven--even the Son of man which is in Heaven.'
Now where are you going? How did you get your dear old mother up there? How could
you put her up there when HE said--
'No man has ascended up to Heaven, except HE that came down from Heaven, even the Son of man which is in Heaven."?
The apostle puts it, and makes it quite explicit--
'The first man Adam was of the earth, earthy,
but the second Adam is the Lord from Heaven.'
Then I say, no man has ascended up to Heaven from that suppositional, superstitious
version of men. No man has ever ascended up into that suppositional version of
Heaven in the superstitious ideas and opinions of men, but HE that came down
from that version, for they said that Jesus came down from Heaven. Aren't you
glad?
Upon this foundation you may build; if you will stand, I will give you the victory over all superstition, I will cause you to recognize GOD'S ACTUAL PRESENCE--not only GOD'S Omnipresence.
I know you metaphysicians say GOD is omnipresent, but I AM going one step further and many if you please, no doubt--I AM saying, the Ever-present GOD is Ever Present now, henceforth and forever; will forsake you nor leave you, no, never! That is, if you will live Evangelically and abide in MY Spirit and MY Mind forever. Now, if you do not abide in MY Spirit and MY Mind, I may leave you as a person and go get another and reincarnate you in her--someone who will love ME and will obey ME and will forsake all others for ME! Aren't you glad?
I say, it is a privilege and a pleasure to be here. I want to emancipate this people! Now is the time the different ones are speaking for Willkie and for Roosevelt. But there will be no lasting peace until they recognize ME! I heard Isaiah say--
'Unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given,
and the government shall be upon His Shoulder;
He shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty GOD,
Everlasting Father and Prince of Peace!'
I say, there shall be no lasting peace until they recognize ME even as I AM,
insignificant as I may apparently be! At this Name every knee must bow and every
tongue must confess that GOD Himself has actually come in the flesh to emancipate
this people, especially all of the under-privileged and the non-privileged and
the mistreated who need ME!
This is MY Coming and the purpose for which I came: to bring PEACE on earth and Good Will to men, such as I have here among these of Mine! Aren't you glad? Now I say, live in this recognition, harmonize with ME if you wish to! If you do not wish to come and go with ME and harmonize with ME and take on the CHRIST Characteristics, the Spirit and the Mind of GOD, you will just be left behind--for I AM GOING ON! Aren't you glad?
We shall have a Righteous Government and as I have it under MY Personal Jurisdiction and wheresoever I have Personal dominion, so shall it be universally, if the people will but trust ME. Take these thoughts to consideration! I know they are hard sayings to the superstitious, the materialists and the unbelievers, but the time is at hand for you to know--the arms of flesh will fail you! I dare you to trust your own! I DARE YOU TO TRUST YOUR OWN!
Matters not how great and high, matters not how lofty they may be, I dare you to let them in you overbalance or outbalance ME! I AM the scale of justice for the people! I AM judging the people with equity Every American citizen could be as independent as I AM. I AM making MY true and faithful co-workers who harmonize with ME whole-heartedly, equivalently the same. The Spirit of MY Presence will do it and will lift you out of lacks, wants and limitations and will give you an access in this Grace wherein I stand and will cause you to come into possession of your rightful inheritance, as heirs and joint heirs together with your Savior!
To talk of Heaven and be in lacks, wants and limitations and preach of GOD and Heaven for years and years, what good is it in that suppositional version? But I AM bringing into your recognition and into your realization, your fondest imagination and I Came to emancipate the under-privileged!
Every person in this City, if they would follow ME whole-heartedly, I would lead them out of lacks, wants and limitations and would give them their real emancipation and free them from every undesirable condition, for I have crossed the line of demarcation. The Mason and Dixon Line nationally, I will tear that down! I mean politically and legally I will break it; even as I have broken it socially, spiritually and religiously, I will break it politically!
We shall have it throughout the length and breadth of this land as I have it on MY immediate Staff right here where I AM! Aren't you glad? As I said today, I will have it in every auxiliary of the Peace Mission Movement, as I have it on MY immediate Staff and under MY Personal Jurisdiction in MY Personal, Private Office!
We shall have it in every business place and in all civil service work, just as I have it here, and the spirit of EQUILIBRIUM shall be in evidence politically and legally among the nations, for the Mouth of GOD has declared it! Aren't you glad? Matters not what the politicians say, I know Roosevelt, in opposition to MY Teaching--and he knew MY Teaching well--in order to ignore the Fundamentals for which the Bill of Rights stands, instituted Jim-Crowism in the army and the navy, the greatest school of our government!
These are hard sayings for him, but yet they are true; and yet I have not said I AM representing Willkie--I AM representing GOD! THAT is what I AM Representing and that is WHO I AM representing, GOD ALMIGHTY!
Millions have declared it and I have verified it--they shall have no lasting Peace until the PRINCE of PEACE is recognized, and the FATHER of the PRINCE of PEACE--you know Who HE IS! Who is the FATHER of a PRINCE? The KING is the FATHER of a PRINCE!
'Behold a KING shall reign in Righteousness,'
said Isaiah, 32:1-2,
'and princes shall rule in judgment!'
I HAVE MY PRINCES WITH ME! I HAVE MY PRINCES WITH ME AND I HAVE MY PRINCESSES
WITH ME. Aren't you glad? For,
'A KING shall reign in Righteousness,
and a man shall be as an hiding place
and as a covert from the winds and the tempests that blow
and as rivers of water in a dry place,'
a place you would not think or you would not even so much as think, much less
than know! A dry place, rivers of water. "How can rivers of water be in
dry places? That is impossible!" How could GOD be in the insignificant,
in someone who looks as if though he is under-privileged? How could that be?
If HE was a great big, nice looking, tall, broad-shouldered man, and a good many
of you would say--with long blonde hair--why, you may think I AM there.
That would look like it would be a wet place, would it not, for a river parably speaking concerning the mystery? But as rivers of water in a dry place where you would not think HE would be, there is where HE is, so declare you concerning ME. I thank you, I thank you, I thank you!
