On the Balcony
at The Circle Mission Church
The following words of Spirit and Life delivered by our beloved Lord and Savior expound many wonderful thoughts for consideration. How wonderful it is to realize that the Words our Redeemer speaks to us are Spirit and they are Life, and through the imbibation of them we gain all the abundant blessings of GOD in our daily lives and affairs.
Therefore read this significant Sermon and you too will realize just how Democracy being impregnated in the hearts and minds of the people through FATHER's great Work and Mission, is accomplishing a constructive clean-up throughout the world at large!
(The foregoing statements are those of the transcriber, after which FATHER speaks as follows:)
Peace, Everyone : Good Health, Good Will, a Good Appetite with Good Manners, Good Behavior, All Success and All Prosperity, Life, Liberty and the Reality of Happiness! These and all other such blessings to you I bring. I speak them into outer expression and I put them into action by impregnating you with them.
It is a privilege to live in such a recognition where God's Actual Presence can and will produce every good and desirable blessing to and for those who are true and faithful. The very Words I speak to you, they are Spirit and they are life! Those of you of whom are susceptive to the Message, to My Words and to My Thoughts I convey, whatsoever I say, you do conceive as you perceive the idea concerning the mystery, and thereby be the reincarnators of the Spoken Words. Hence, Health, Good Will, Good Appetite, All Success and all Prosperity I AM developing in you! I speak them into consideration, I speak them into action. If you are susceptive you will be healthy, you will be happy! Can you not see the mystery?
The very Words I speak, they are Spirit and they are Life because you believe it because you believe ME! That is the mystery! For this cause the Words of Life as spoken daily, as being termed MY Salutations, are Words that are the true impregnation of Life into the hearts and lives of millions and therefore they are filled with Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness until they acquire it even as these have: and then, they too, as well as you will have it.
It is a privilege to live in the Actual Presence of GOD with such a conviction!
'As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he.'
Then I say, think on, beautiful thinkers! Just keep on thinking beautiful thoughts,
beautiful ideas and beautiful opinions and live in them, produce them and transmit
them to others, for it is more blessed to give the constructive, the positive,
than the negative!
For this cause we do rejoice! Just the thoughts of MY Mind, through concentration, you feel Something Supernatural transmitted, and if you are susceptive you will get it! Aren't you glad!
This is a Beautiful Life a beautiful Life to live! It is written in your Scripture:
'Evil communications corrupt good morals; ill qualities are catching as well as diseases and a man is known by his company keepers.'
The positive is equally true ! It looks something like it here, does it not?
Just think of those with whom I have kept company for lo, these many years, not
only those with whom I have dwelt Personally but even our nation is becoming
to be more democratic!
When the speaker mentioned a little while ago of his paper, I recall coming here from New York, and held a meeting, I think it was in 1938; I believe I have it on record somewhere in some of the papers that carried My Message at that time, around about 1938, and I preached a Sermon and I appealed to the City of Brotherly Love that was filled with prejudice, division and strife, and I stressed the fact that I came to not only crush the head of the Serpent Prejudice but I came to cut it off!
I noticed the next year after I came, or shortly thereafter, there was a Civil Rights Law passed here!
I am contagionizing the atmosphere! Aren't you glad! I AM not confined to those who are called MY followers alone. This may be the nucleus but the Influence of this Contagion is just as operative and expressive as diseases that are contagious. Therefore it is a privilege to know from whence cometh a true expression of Democracy! Aren't you glad !
With or without MY Body, as said the speaker down the Table there, if anyone has democracy, it came from, I think he said FATHER DIVINE! Whether I use the personal pronoun or not I speak very positive concerning the fact because I have universalized MYSELF! Therefore as I AM impersonal, it is something that is universal Democracy is ! It is the same as the Principle of Mathematics; the Principle of Mathematics is not bound to a mathematician, though he may be a perfect mathematician. It is just as operative and expressive for others as it is for the first one who gave it ! I thank you.
