FATHER DIVINE
In speaking about the ministers, FATHER said:
"If they get their minds out of the skies and begin to teach the people the Presence of GOD they will be all right. Yet, they did not find themselves in readiness to die for the purpose of bringing into conscious realization the fruition of the materialization of GOD, and for this cause they could only preach GOD spiritually, unless haply they would fear to make themselves equal with GOD. They were afraid to sacrifice their lives and lay themselves liable to the evil, and lay themselves open as a sample and as an example. So Mr. Lanyon says he is so glad to be able to bring the true light of Truth to the people and that he can convey to the world the Presence of GOD or the conviction of the Presence of GOD, and it is a great blessing, for he had striven to convey it to the world."
