FATHER delivered a beautiful Message after singing the song,
“I waited patiently until CHRIST came,
Until CHRIST came
Until CHRIST came
I waited patiently until CHRIST came,
(I heard you say)
And now He dwells in me.”
Thank You, FATHER Dear, for Your Love.
(The forgoing statements are those of the transcriber and FATHER’S Lecture follows.)
PEACE, EVERYONE!
That little composition I composed many years ago, speaking in the minds and in the hearts of the children of men, according to their religious conviction. They also declared in ME, they waited patiently until I came. This was an assertion from the very depths of the convicted religious soul, as a committee of one, representing each and everyone who did wait patiently and who desired to rely on the Fundamental whole heartedly.
When this was fulfilled in their experience, they declared with the composition,
“I waited patiently . . .
And now He dwells in me.”
At times there are things that continue to exist and from time to time appear and disappear on the scene, to be considered and reconsidered, but after a while an issue is made of the thing.
When those who were called wise men, as they came from the East to Jerusalem to worship or to seek the Babe of Bethlehem, as astrologists they came. They were known as wise men—as the Wise Men of the East today. They had studied astrology, they had studied metaphysics, they had studied the divers philosophies and the recognition of the transmission of GOD to the earth plane to teach and to dwell among men. For this cause they were somewhat deeply inspired by Him to seek out the Babe of Bethlehem by the stars and by what they had seen by astrology.
When they came on this memorial, as it is set apart as a day commonly known as “Christmas Day,” they sought diligently to find One Who would bring Peace to all mankind. For this cause, as they were deeply convicted according to their religious conviction, they sought Jesus diligently. They sought the One Who would save the nations of the earth from war, from pestilence, from disaster of every kind. They knew, outside of this realm, of this One of Whom was to come, there was no Peace, neither was there any rest among men.
For this cause, by being sincerely convicted that there was a Savior to be born in the land, naturally they sought Him, and going down to Bethlehem, or from the place nearby, they were thinking vividly in the Positive direction according to the astrologists and according to the scientific, spiritual inspirations they were given. They heard as though there were angels singing, from Heaven, yet being according to their conscious religious conviction, saying,
“Glory to GOD in the highest and on earth
peace, good will towards men.”
They heard as though there were angels singing, although it may not have been as men consider angels to be. Nevertheless, it came from the hearts’ sincere desire and the conviction of those men who sought Jesus as the Babe of Bethlehem; therefore it has gone down on record:
“Glory to GOD in the highest and on earth peace, good will towards men.”
At this Christmas, nineteen thirty-eight, GOD through His condescension, after many years of being veiled, I have openly appeared again on the scene. I must be recognized and considered by all mankind! For the time cometh and is near at hand, GOD will not tolerate deterioration in your conscious religious conviction and advances towards Him, for there is enough of My Spirit and My real Mind on the earth plane to supply every man through the Spirit of Honesty, Competence and Truth, and to deeply stand in defiance to any opposition and lift up a standard for them that they might not be afraid among this people.
Oh, it is a privilege to observe what GOD has actually done, for there shall be no Peace among the children of men until the King of Peace shall have been recognized, selected and elected and enthroned on the minds of them. Thus to them as a CHILD CHRIST came, One declared in the prophecy;
“Unto us a Child is born; unto us a Son is given;
And the government shall be upon His shoulder.”
It did not say the government is upon His shoulder, but the government shall be upon His shoulder; for as a Child He stood—He did not carry the government upon His shoulder, but it is the same One of Whom the angels sang,
“Glory to GOD in the highest, and on earth
Peace, good will towards men.”
Bringing it a little nearer in this dispensation, I have declared—in 1938, A.D.F.D.
“Glory to GOD in the highest, and on earth
Peace, good will to men.”
What a privilege it is to live in such a recognition, but as the Child was born, time rolled on and a Son was given but it was the same One,
“He shall be called, . . .”
It did not say “He is immediately called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty GOD, Everlasting FATHER and Prince of Peace.
This was a degree advanced, as a prince is the son of a king but the time did come in the inspirationic prophecy when the Prince did grow up to be the King. Aren’t you glad! For what said Christendom?
“The Son took the book out of the FATHER’S hand.”
Aren’t you glad!
Therefore, the Son as the Prince grew up to be the King to rule on the throne of the minds of the children of men in the fulfillment of the advanced inspirationic prediction of Isaiah in Isaiah 32, 1:
“Behold a King shall reign!”
A King reigneth now! And all of the nations of the earth must accept of Him if they expect to live and inherit Eternal Life; for GOD, through His condescension, has been resurrected, and descended to reign on the hearts and minds of men, as they have selected and elected Him. Oh, it is a privilege to observe the mystery! Then I say,
“. . . everlasting FATHER, Prince of Peace!”
Hence, the Prince of Peace, as He was, grew up to take the book out of the FATHER’S Hand, and the Prince of Peace is no longer bound as an individual to that Prince-ship degree, but the
“King shall reign in righteousness and princes shall rule in judgment.”
Oh, it is a privilege to observe the mystery and to see what GOD is actually doing among this people. When they speak in opposition to the word “Peace” used over the telephone in their homes or any other place, just tell them I said to tell all of the nations of the earth, those who refuse and reject and rebuke and ridicule this Peace, they shall have no Peace until they recognize the very King of Peace Who shall reign in Righteousness throughout all Eternity!
Oh, it is a privilege, I say, to observe it! For what said the minor prophet concerning the mystery? Malachi said:
“And He shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver,
and He shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge
them as gold and silver.”
Oh, it is something to consider!
Then I say, without the recognition—not only of the Prince of Peace, but the King of Peace and the Princesses of Peace and the Princes of Peace—they shall not inherit Peace on earth and they shall not enjoy themselves! The time cometh and is near at hand, Peace must be recognized by all mankind; for when they refuse to recognize Peace, confusion, pestilence and disasters result—even the cosmic forces of nature become to be disturbed. There are many disturbances in the cosmic forces of nature and in the creative forces of nature, by the spirit of disobedience, unrest and ignorant pride rising in opposition to the ALMIGHTY GOD, the Prince of Peace and the King of Peace. Aren’t you glad!
Then as a sample and as an example, as a slight sketch and a reflection of what will be, I let them see last summer when that storm came throughout the east coast here—I let them see and know, where they did not want Peace and Harmony, they could get Confusion! Now, tell them I said it! They did not want Peace and naturally the cosmic forces of nature worked according to their minds and according to their antagonistic tendencies and ideas and opinions and played all sorts of confusion among them because they did not want Peace. They were running! Many of them—houses floated out in the ocean and many houses were blown down and the water came and did for them and by them, what man could not do and get by at it.
They may try to do many things at times and think they can get by at doing something to the insignificant, by suppressing the insignificant, as they appear to be to them; suppressing them to prohibit them from expressing volitionally and according to the dictates of their own conscience inspirationally; but when the suppressions of theirs cease, at times even before they cease, the cosmic forces of nature take up your battle and fight your battle for you.
If there is a question as to whether it is true or not, tell them to retrace their thoughts back to all of the demonstrations I have had Personally in the City and elsewhere for the last eight or ten years. Tell them to retrace their thoughts back and see how the cosmic forces of nature worked in harmony with ME. Tell them to retrace their thoughts back to how the antagonism of the violent and malicious minds of men in demonstrations and in other places where they had been malicious and destructive, by being violent with the intent to kill and to destroy, at all times those minds became to be calm at My Command!
Tell them to retrace their thoughts back to the different experiences of My followers as they have gone through the land commanding Peace on earth and Good Will to men! Where the crooks and the robbers and the underworld men were violent, My Spirit and My Mind have calmed them. My Spirit and My Mind and My Personal Activities in this community and throughout the City have curbed crime at such a rapid rate of speed, the police department can bear witness of ME! Tell them that I said I work scientifically; accurately and yet I work socially, intellectually, industrially and I work economically and educationally. All of these points I bring into actuality and produce Perfection among this people, even politically.
They all shall recognize My Presence and the Presence of Peace among this people and I shall so contagionize the atmosphere with it until those who open their mouths, even if they desire to speak, unconsciously and unwillingly they shall say, “Peace!” If they continue to rebel against this Peace, they will see as I afore said, they can have violence if they want it. If they do not want Peace, they can have war, they can have riots, they can have revolutions in the act of violence and in the act of warfare! Not only so, but remember when GOD does not speak and is prohibited from speaking in Peace and in his own Nature otherwise, He allows something else to speak out of His Nature, according to the cosmic forces of nature when they work destructively to the people.
Then I say, I have long time holden My Peace, but at times I consider it may not be long before I will release publicly to the universe a Message that will shake all creation! This must be done in the fulfillment of the inspirationic prediction of a composition quite often sung:
“GOD is making up that number for that Great Day!
They may think politically; socially and legally, they have all power—I mean those who are in opposition and are trying to oppose or curb or suppress My Spirit; but I say,
“GOD is making up the number for that Great Day!”
Aren’t you glad! If I do not speak politically, if they will not accept of ME legally, I demand the respect of the people universally and I will speak morally and will control the masses. Aren’t you glad!
Then I say, at this Name Every knee must bow and every tongue confess; for Jesus the CHRIST was born out of wedlock that He might come under the Law and be subjected to it and yet have victory over all adverse conditions and prove Himself Victorious! GOD is victoriously a Conqueror over all oppositions; therefore,
“Fret not yourselves because of the workers of
of iniquity, for they shall be cut off.”
GOD HIMSELF shall be reckoned in all of the land. Wheresoever man is found, they all shall eventually seek diligently the Peace you all are representing.
I mention this stressfully because, as I said, it continues at times until I make an issue out of those things. Those who do not want Peace and do not want My Spirit and My Mind, the time is near at hand they shall not have even one of Mine! They shall not have even the service of one of Mine! Now aren’t you glad!
They need not think to say within themselves that they can control us from an economic point of view. They cannot do it! Aren’t you glad! As without a letter of the English alphabet, so without a penny of the American or English money, GOD is Infinite and Super-intelligent and yet I mean to say GOD is Wealthy and Super Wealthy!
“The earth is the LORD’S and the fullness thereof.”
As a Person and as in the Name of GOD from a spiritual point of view, GOD does not claim anything legally or Personally or individually, for GOD is Impersonal; therefore HE cannot have anything individually and Personally, but yet having the earth and the fullness thereof and all they that dwell therein or thereon shall obey GOD’S Command, for they are all the servants of Him.
Uncle Sam, consciously or unconsciously, said,
“In GOD we trust.”
He may not have known the mystery when he said it, but it has gone down on record as an inscription that cannot be forgotten.
“In GOD we trust.”
Well, of course it is true they had never seen GOD, for they did not know GOD had a Body, did not know GOD would come in a Body and take unto Himself His own Domain, but yet even though He came in a Body and is recognized by millions and millions universally, He is not claiming a thing! Aren’t you glad! That is why He can be everywhere at the same time and have all Dominion in all of the places wheresoever man is found and yet not claiming a thing and not having anything as a Person—yet all things are Mine!
If Uncle Sam did not mean that, he should not have said it. He said, “In GOD we trust,”
And you said, “U. S.”—US—the United States of America—U. S. A. Now, it is only a matter of time and GOD will prove to the world conclusively, those who oppose and criticize or refuse the Message of Peace the angels are singing, as they sang to the Wise Men of the East when they were going to Bethlehem, before they had Peace, they shall not enjoy the blessings of Life that we are now enjoying.
Before you all had any bodies, when you were invisible according to the religious or metaphysical version GOD in the Name of you as angles sang,
“Glory to GOD in the highest and on earth Peace, Good Will, towards men.
because the first-born among many brethren had come. In the composition brought out of recent years—about thirty years ago—
“One by one I saw the angels coming,
One by one I heard them sing—
One by one I heard the Spirit humming,
‘Hallelujah, praise the King!’
They are coming seeking new bodies
On this earth to dwell among men—
They want bodies somewhat like their FATHER’S
Hallelujah, praise the King!”
The Wise Men heard the angels sing when they were going down to Bethlehem. They were invisible then, apparently, because they could not see them, but they were coming seeking new bodies somewhat like Jesus’ Body at that time. That is why they said,
“Glory to GOD in the highest and on earth
Peace, Good Will towards men.”
This was a message given by you all then when you as angels were invisible, having not had bodies to be seen. But you were coming then seeking new bodies on this earth to dwell among men! You wanted bodies somewhat like Jesus’ Body of Whom would be represented as the FATHER—“Hallelujah, praise the King!”
That is the reason you as individuals individually, collectively, nationally and internationally, yea, Infinitely are singing, “Peace.”—because it is the repetition of the Peace that had been spoken into existence before you had a body. You are reiterating that which has been iterated by the invisible realm of the host of angels.
“Glory to GOD in the highest and on earth
Peace, Good Will to men.”
For this cause, the very nature and the spirit and the characteristics and the life and the teaching and the love and the mission of the angels are a living reality among you, and your bodies are the reincarnators of the angels that were singing. Aren’t you glad! That is why you are representing the Angelic Choir, the invisible Angelic Choir, as described by the Wise Men when they heard the angels sing. But GOD has given them bodies as it pleases Him, even as He had given His Son a Body in the Name called “Jesus of Nazareth,” or of Bethlehem.
For this cause we shall have a Righteous Government! . . . Because the government is upon His Shoulder now and we shall universally establish it in Righteousness, Truth and Justice, according to the Scripture, the Gospel and the Epistles, yea, even according to Jesus. I thank you.
