115th Street Peace Mission Extension, New York City
Though the hour was late, thousands filled with Merriness, Love, and Devotion, filled FATHER'S New York City Headquarters. In the clear bright Atmosphere, they waited patiently and happily for the one thing that would give them Joy above all else, to look on the Holy Body of their Savior. Since GOD had come to them in Bodily Form, and transformed them to Angels, they would gladly wait all night if necessary, for one look at His Beautiful Body.
As they waited on this occasion they sang, and one of the Songs they sang with positive conviction was,—"I know I'm living in Heaven, around the great White Throne." The Song so vividly and sincerely sung was literally true, for they were in reality living around the Great White Throne. They were not only living around it, but they were actually a part of it. Their hearts were its fundamental substance. Since FATHER had come with RIGHTEOUSNESS, JUSTICE and TRUTH, Ruling in the hearts and minds of millions, and they had been purified, made white and tried, and welded into one, His Great White Throne had manifestly covered the whole Earth. And So, from around the shining Throne of beating hearts made white, another song came forth with Love to Him Who Rules in Majesty and Might, and thousands sang as one,—"GOD Alone shall Reign, man's day is done."
Thus in this last Day and Dispensation FATHER has opened the seven seals, and in His Personal Coming all Prophecies have been fulfilled. John, on the Isle of Patmos, saw HIM Ruling on His Great White Throne, and he wrote in verse eleven of Revelation twenty:
"And I saw a Great White Throne, and Him that sat on it, from Whose Face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them,"
—and again,—
"I saw a New Heaven and a New Earth, for the first Heaven and the first Earth were passed away; and there was no more sea."
So on this occasion in the Invisible Heaven made visible, and the visible Earth made Heavenly, the Angels continued to Praise and Sing, and await the Person of their Lord and King. At last He came to the great Banquet Table, and the Love and Devotion of the True and the Faithful burst forth in a mighty Demonstration at the sight of the Beloved Form of Him Who has made Himself Visible as well as Invisible.
Many Testimonies and Demonstrations followed, in which one of the Heavenly Host who had come from the West Coast, asked FATHER to Say whether she should go back to Seattle to carry on the work she had been doing, or remain in New York. Many other issues were brought to consideration also, until that pure River of the Water of Life, clear as crystal, commenced to flow from Him Who sat upon the Throne, and FATHER rose to His Feet revealing Mysteries hidden from the foundation of the world, Speaking Words of Spirit and of Life as follows:
"PEACE EVERYBODY! RIGHTEOUSNESS, JUSTICE and TRUTH! I wish to call your attention once again to these three expressions, RIGHTEOUSNESS, TRUTH and JUSTICE. The time is coming and it is nearing, when you will be voting. I would just like to call your attention to the fact that we have not ceased our endeavors to bring about RIGHTEOUSNESS, TRUTH and JUSTICE. We mean to bring it about as I have aforesaid from time to time, not by violence but by RIGHTEOUSNESS; not by the bullet—but by the ballot. For this cause, everyone, if you wish to and your intuition leads you to, you should be ready and qualified to register and to vote.
Nextly I wish to Say for all of your consideration, if every individual will deny himself wholeheartedly and concentrate on the Fundamental, and keep his mind .stayed in the positive direction, through self-denial and consecration your intuition will be your Leader and Guide, and the Spirit will inspire you what to do, the way to go, and what to say.
When one of the Speakers was testifying a little while ago, I Thought of the freedom individuals have in these modern days. In such a freedom you can have under your own individual personal jurisdiction as being called yours, so many suits of clothes, so many dresses and shoes, you are so free you just, don't know what to do. But if you only had one, you would know exactly what to do, for that one you would put on.
There are those of you interested to know just what I have to Say concerning you, and what you should do, where you should go, when you should go, etc. If you are true, if you are real, if you have received your real Emancipation, you are free to go, you are free to come; all you must needs do is to be honest, competent and true, and be governed by your highest intuition; why should I usurp Authority as a Person, when My Spirit and My Presence are within you; when My Spirit within, as being termed Me, is your Intuition to guide and to direct you, and by Inspiration to cause you to move by your own volition and go in the direction according to the direction of your intuition?
This is the Mission of the Spirit, and. My Presence, to free each and every individual and cause them to be absolutely independent, saving to be governed by their highest intuition and to be moved by their own volunteer volition unselfishly, fully consecrated to the Spirit. It will Teach you, it will tell you, the direction you should go.
Now there is a question,—"But do I know my intuition?" Your intuition is your In-tutor, the One Whom you have declared to be Me, but intuitively teaching within, or guiding and instructing you by your highest leading. That which is within, is the inner expression of that which is without. Your intelligence merely means your "In-teller". In expression manifested, it is your intelligence. Your "In-teller" should tell you this, that or the other. Your intuition should direct you the way you should go. It is indeed wonderful! What is, or in other words, who is that intelligent person? The person that has an "In-teller" expressly manifested in the expression of telling him something very enlightened, something that will enlighten him and others, that expression of that "In-teller" is your intelligence.
It is a privilege to realize, your Emancipation came by the sacrifice of One, that you might gain yours. By the en-slavery and bondage of One, many have been made free. The freedom comes through that One without and within, Who has sacrificed His Freedom for you. Then I Say your intuition should tell you exactly what to do. If 'you are governed by it, by and through self-denial and sacrifice, when you shall have dethroned every other version, every other idea and every other opinion saving CHRIST, the Redeemer, then and there that In-tutor within you will tell you by Inspiration, of whom in reality is your intuition. When you are governed by same you will be in perfect Harmony with My Mind.
Now if you cannot trust Me in you, and if you cannot trust Me in ME as it may be termed, you are not substantiated in Faith and unshaken in Confidence. Now learn to know for yourself where you can step out on the Promise and rely on just what the Spirit tells you. When you come to Me and say, "FATHER, is my Name this, or is my Name that ?"—I usually Say, your Name is your nature. If you are doubtful concerning your Name, it must not be made plain, it. must not be your real name, for when it is fully made plain and clear, if it is, there would not be a question from the external. You would not be ashamed, neither afraid, nor fear to tell Me just what I have told you.
Hereafter your Name means your nature, but you should get that from your own experience. It should come from the within. If it does not come from the within, bearing witness to the same without, it would not be convincing to others. No doubt it would cause, others to doubt. They may catch YOUR thoughts. It is true, it is good to wait patiently, "meekly wait and murmur not", nevertheless when the Spririt reveals anything convincing to you, you should be substantiated in Faith enough to know for yourself. Now if the Spirit tells you your Name is John, or whatsoever it may tell you, especially if you are self; denied in your endeavors, you can rest assured through self-denial when the Spirit brings something, it must be the Spirit of Truth. But through self-exaltation, through self-honor and self-praise, your own conscious mind quickened by your conscious thinking in that direction may tell you something that would be negative.
Individuals are quickened by the Spirit at times, and awakened in an expression that is negative. That expression may be negative, that expression may not be true, because it is a preconceived thought of yours. You notice those, the majority of them, who with self-exaltation desire to do different things through selfishness, through preconceived ideas and opinions, when the Spirit quickens them they will endeavor to carry out their own mortal pleasures. They do such at times, thinking they can hide behind the Spirit. At times the Spirit may actually quicken the self-exaltation, and cause them to express their preconceived ideas and opinions, the pre-fancies, pleasures and tendencies which have been conceived in them and planned through selfishness.
As I look and behold from time to time at the outward expression of the positive and the negative, there are those who are expressers of positive thoughts through the quickened and awakened emotions, and others may copy after them, but through preconceived ideas and opinions, and negative thinking. Now isn't that something to consider?
Therefore upon this Foundation it is essential for you to learn to deny yourself whole-heartedly, that through your self-denial, sacrifice, and then consecration to the service, the Spirit of My Presence will quicken within you, for there will not be another to be represented. So long as you are representatives of yourselves in act or deed for a selfish purpose, such an ex-pression, preconceived idea or opinion, or other versions from the mental realm, might be quickened in your expression and cause you to endeavor to do something spontaneously by the Spirit when you are quickened,—something that would be negative, contrary, and conflicting to the Fundamental. Now isn't that Wonderful!
There are some among you who have preconceived ideas and opinions, self-exalted ideas; you will get under the influence of the emotions and expressions, and endeavor to carry out your own mortal pleasures. Nevertheless such an expression does not altogether condemn the expressions of emotions, for emotions are expressly manifested at times by the TRUE and the FAITHFUL. Therefore the counterfeiter will copy after the likeness of the expression of that which is Perfect. If there was no real Perfect expression, the imperfect and counterfeit expression could not be exhibited, for the counterfeiters will copy after the fashion, and endeavor to bring out something in the likeness of that which is Real and Perfect.
I know, the mortal mind at times they desire,—the different minds of the mortal versions desire,—to find a place whereby they can criticize and ignore the true expression of emotions, but the true expression of emotions cannot be altogether criticized,— could not be criticized at all,—for the Spirit moves spontaneously in the hearts and lives of the consecrated ones. But the counterfeiters may copy after the fashion, even though they have preconceived ideas and opinions to be quickened within them.
Those of you whom the Spirit uses so vividly should be expressions of Perfect Love and Devotion in deeds and in actions, more expressly than any other person. If you do, then and there you are telling Me and telling others, you Love Me. But if you are merely expressers and manifestors of emotions and words, and refuse to bring the results of the Spirit, of Love, of Truth, of Competence and of Obedience, Faithfulness, and other desirable expressions, you are telling Me plainly, and others, you are counterfeiting. You should be just as positive in your endeavors to express Truthfulness, and Faithfulness, and "Devout-fullness," and Realness, and Service, and Servitude for GOD and for man, as you would endeavor to serve YOURSELVES through emo-tions, through shouting, yelling and dancing.
Take these Thoughts to consideration. Such expressions have been in the past through your ignorance, as a veil for selfishness, for slothfulness, for un-realness, and other expressions of the undesirable version, but they have no longer an existence concealed for if I had not come you would have had a cloak for your sins. But since I came I have made everything clear and plain even to GOD Himself in this Holy Name. One declared,
"No man has seen GOD at any time, but the Only Begotten of the FATHER, He has Declared Him."
The Declaration of GOD, by the transposed version and by the true interpretation, could be termed, He has CLEARED Him and made Him PLAIN, and clearly to be seen by the eyes of men.
"How careful then ought we to live."
Those of you who are endeavoring to express emotions, and those of you who are emotional without endeavoring, you should be consecrated, self-denied, and Sacrificed to GOD, that your emotions may be the expressions of the Spirit or sponsored by the Spirit. According to the sacrifices you have made the Mind of GOD would be enacted in your emotions and expressions, and you would express My Spirit in actions through your emotions, intelligently.
My Expressions, though being super-emotional, must compete with the light of Civilization to the standard of Perfection, to express the Perfect expression sufficient to balance My Emotions and Expressions of that which is termed fanaticism. Because of this we can comprehend with all Saints. Every flower, and every bloom, the bees with the bee-knowledge or understanding, can get the substance there-from,—in other words from them,—for the purpose of making honey. From all of the different emotions and expressions, as being termed blossoms, and buds and blooms of the different versions of the different Religions and Organizations, I will get the substance from each and every expression, but I will bring each and all of them into subjection to make fit meat for the Master's use. Now isn't that Wonderful!
It is a privilege to live in the ACTUAL PRESENCE of GOD,—to bring your bodies into subjection, that the Spirit of My Presence with all Divine Intelligence, might Teach you Wisdom, Knowledge and Understanding that cannot be criticized. Then I Say once again, the person or persons who are self-exalted in themselves from the within by preconceived ideas and opinions, when you get under the influence of the Spirit, if you are quickened and those emotions cause you to act spontaneously what you had endeavored to do before, it is an outward expression of your preconceived ideas and opinions and I can plainly see them.
Take these Thoughts to consideration. As I have said from time to time, here is the space and place for service for the waitresses and waiters. There are those who claim to be so far carried away in My Spirit, and , that Spirit causes them to violate My Rules and Regulations continually. What kind of spirit or mind is it? If it IS the Spirit quickened, the body, the mind that is controlling it may be as an individual who is destructive and ignorant with an automobile. If he is not a chauffeur and cannot drive, he may destroy himself with the same gasoline and with the same automobile that another may save lives with.
Jot these Thoughts down in your vocabularies. Remember, GOD is Omniscient and His Intelligence is transmittable, reincarnattable, reproducible, and can and will be re-Personified as you allow it to be. Oh it is a privilege to realize these Truths. I am not criticizing My Emotions and Expressions, but the criticism is of the mind of selfishness. Preconceived ideas and opinions from the mortal consciousness, self-exaltation,—the person or persons who desire to set themselves up above the other fellow,—your preconceived ideas and opinions may be quickened within you. They WILL be quickened within you if you stay around Me, for I Am the RESURRECTION and I Am the LIFE. GOD causes the rain to fall on the just and also on the unjust. Therefore as the Resurrector I will quicken and awaken that which is within you. Even though it is negative, contrary and conflicting, the Spirit of My Presence will quicken it. That is why the great essential is, to get that which is termed Understanding.
Through Faith and Consecration, and self-denial, get the CHRIST Mind,—the Mind that was in Him,—get that Mind of meekness, lowliness and obedience, and if you deserve being exalted GOD Himself can and will exalt you. Take these Thoughts to consideration. Watch your steps, and be careful how you entertain strangers, for these strange ideas and opinions conceived within you may bring negation to you and cause you to be mixed in mind, confused and overthrown mentally, and cause you to be mentally afflicted at times, and unbalanced in mind. Oh it is something to consider. You will notice yourselves now, hereafter, those of you who have preconceived some mortal idea and some mortal opinion in selfishness and self-exaltation, concerning yourselves and others,—"I have as much right to be there as this one, or that one, or the other one,"—with your selfish, preconceived ideas and opinions when they are quickened in you, they may cause you to do something that is a SIN AGAINST THE HOLY GHOST.
"Thou shalt not tempt The Lord thy GOD, but Him only shalt thou serve."
Many are conceivers of such preconceived ideas and opinions, and substantiated selfishness that have been in them. They re-conceive the preconceived ideas and opinions, they re-conceive them in their conscious mentality, for they have been lying dormant within the sub-consciousness. They re-conceive the preconceived ideas and opinions of such selfishness and self-exalted expressions. When you re-conceive those pre-conceived ideas and opinions, or such self-exalted expressions, they will quicken in your physical body in expression, and come forth and do your endeavors according to your preconceived ideas and opinions. Oh it is something to consider!
You notice the majority of them who are self-exalted in their ideas and opinions, those who have not denied themselves wholeheartedly, and those mortal tendencies are quickened within them, they usually will get overbalanced; but the great essential is for every person if he is enquiring after Me, to deny himself firstly. Deny yourself whole-heartedly! Remember, your body is the Temple of GOD. Your temple should not be brought to consideration in your conscious thinking, neither your well-being nor anything for yourself as for a selfish purpose; but as a living sacrifice your body, your spirit and your mind should be offered. When this is established in you, you can relax your conscious mentality. You can still yourselves whole-heartedly. You will move spontaneously by the Spirit within you, and it will be according to My Mind, to My Will, and to My Pleasure.
Oh it is a privilege to realize it! But notice that spirit in you! Firstly notice your self-exalted and bigoted mind; notice your preconceived ideas and opinions of self-exaltation; something in you desiring to be great in the sight of men, something in you desiring to be seen and heard by them, something in you desiring to be exalted above your fellow brother, and something in you desiring to put another down and put yourself up. All of those tendencies, and fancies and pleasures are destructive to you. They may express destruction to others apparently, but they are more destructive to you. The outward expression is but the mental and spiritual conception. Therefore your physical bodies, in words, deeds and actions, are but the outward expression of your mental and spiritual conception.
Jot these Thoughts down in your vocabularies. I could Talk from this angle of psychological Truths that are logical for you, all night and all day long. Nevertheless, I believe I have said enough to stir up your pure minds, that you might relax your conscious mentality, still yourselves in your preconceived ways of expression, and refuse to desire to be seen and heard, and allow GOD to Speak and Act as He Wills. Oh it is a privilege to cleanse yourselves of all filthiness of the flesh and SPIRIT. There is a filthiness of the spirit as well as a filthiness of the flesh. There is a filthiness and selfishness of the mind, as well as that of the flesh and spirit. Therefore cleanse yourselves of all filthiness of the flesh, and spirit, and MIND. Your mentality should be cleansed from everything of that kind, such as expressing self-exaltation, self-honor, self-praise, and such selfish expressions. Your mentality should be cleansed from them completely. Then and there I will express scientifically in you, and you will be recognized by Me. Oh it is something to consider!
Man has been led in the extreme opposite direction to Life, Truth and Happiness. That is why mankind has been in misery from the early existence of the human race upon the face of the Earth. They have lived in misery, because their minds have led them and others in the negative direction. Their minds have caused them to go in the way of conflicts and conflictions for themselves and for others, for their minds have led them in the extreme opposite direction to the positive. Those of you of the human race who have not been Born again, have been born wrong. CHRIST, in the Person of JESUS as a Sample and as an Example, came and WAS Born, to show mankind how they all should have been Born. LET GOD COME IN. That is why Eve said concerning Cain,
'I have a man child of The Lord'
as if though this man child was conceived by the Spirit of GOD through and by the 'beget-tion' of the Holy Ghost as JESUS was. Because he was not conceived or born, or begotten that way, it was essential for JESUS to come and show mankind how they all should have been Born and tell them,
“Except a man be Born again, he cannot see the Kingdom of Heaven.“
Then I Say, those of you who have not been Born again,—Born out of that Adamic state of consciousness completely,—you need to be Born again.
'Born', does not merely mean an emotional expression of Spiritual ecstasy, but born again means especially to be born out of that mortal consciousness or preconceived ideas and opinions wherein you were born. Oh it is something to consider! All of your preconceived ideas and opinions, and your human intelligence transmitted to you through others as tutors and instructors,—all of those things, you must relax them, lay them down, let go, and let GOD come in.
Man has declared, the first thing you should do, you should respect self, and look to self, seek self-gains, and other selfish expressions, for such is the nature of Adam in humanity. But the Nature of CHRIST is the extreme reverse to such, therefore CHRIST in the Person of JESUS Said,
“A man must deny himself”.
“Except a man he Born again, he cannot see the Kingdom of Heaven.”
“If you hear of any man enquiring, —or asking for Me whichever,— tell him I Said first deny himself.”
Therefore the Nature of CHRIST was an expression to the extreme reverse of that of man's. Even through the Conception, it was the extreme reverse to the versions of men. The Conception of JESUS was an expression according to Christendom, conceived by the Holy Ghost, conceived by the Invisibilization of GOD without a visible expression without a physical or visible expression as being termed an intercourse. This was the extreme reverse version and expression of Adam's.
Mankind since Adam, has lived,—they all have lived,—in the expression of Adam, according to his version. Therefore JESUS came as a Sample and as an Example, to show mankind how they should have been born. If mankind would have been born, after the making of Adam and Eve by the Hand of the Maker, as they should have been born, JESUS as CHRIST would not have had to come; but as they were conceived as Cain was, by deception through selfishness, a n d through and by their mortal tendencies and physical expressions, it was essential for CHRIST to come through the Perfect Virgin. It was essential for Him to come as I aforesaid, through the Perfect. Virgin,—not only so, but to come by the Spiritual version and not by the physical conception after the manner of the mortal version.
Therefore as a Sample and as an Example GOD'S Understanding came; the visible-ization of the CHRIST, visible-ated and manifested was an outward expression of GOD'S Intelligence. The visible-ization of CHRIST in the Person of JESUS expressly manifested, was an outward expression of GOD'S Version, and GOD'S Idea, and GOD'S Opinion concerning being born as humanity should have been born. Eve said,
'I have a man child of The Lord'.
The man child SHOULD have been from GOD—for the Invisible-ization of GOD, from the Invisible Realm of the Holy Ghost. As it was with Mary and Joseph as an abstract expression of the sample manifested, so should it have been or would it have been, had Adam and Eve been pure and clean in mind. She would have had a man child of The Lord, the same as Mary did.
The Birth of CHRIST as a Person, abstractly expressed and still expresses the mystery of GOD'S Presence, and of the real Birth of humanity as the Sons of GOD. As the First-born among many Brethren, the Person of JESUS came as a Sample and as an Example for all mankind, to show them just how they all should have been born, and Eve should have told the truth, for it should have been a real saying, she had a man child of The Lord, instead of having a man child of the serpent. Cain was of that wicked one, 'the other fellow' better known by the Religions, the Devil. Cain was that 'other fellow's' son and Eve knew it, through the conception by participation and correspondence with 'the other fellow'. Therefore Eve knew Adam knew, or thought, or would know, it was not his, and she said,
'I have a man child of The Lord'.
JESUS Said,
"Ye are of your father, 'the other fellow',"
did He Not ?
Do you not see the mystery, how the conception came about and how Eye was a deceiver, the same as women are to-day?
'I have a man child of The Lord.'
She thought Adam would think it was of The Lord. Maybe Adam did, and maybe he was deceived and thought HE was The Lord, as many self-exalted minds do, of to-day. Now isn't that Wonderful! She SHOULD have had a man child of the Invisible-ization of The Lord. She should have had a man child of the Holy Spirit, or the Holy Ghost, even as Mary did, without a visible contact with a visible expression. Therefore the man child would have been of The LORD, and He would have been the real Son of GOD; but to the reverse, Cain was of that wicked one, 'the other fellow'. Therefore it has been handed down through the Ages, yea even through and by the Sages. Through misconception and misunderstanding they have endorsed and verified such expressions as mortal human conception. They have endorsed the mortal version of begetting and rearing up children in selfishness,—selfish tendencies, fancies and pleasures. Therefore the mortal version came all the way down through the Ages to this Generation, and your mortal human fancies and tendencies are nothing less than self-exaltation.
To get the Victory over those conditions, you must be born out of that Adamic state of consciousness, and become to be New Creatures through self-denial and sacrifice, by putting off the old man Adam and Adam's versions, ideas and opinions, with all of his deeds. Mankind declared Adam's deeds, and human affection, and human conception, were just and right and good, so long as they came through legality, or such an expression as would be classed as legality; but what Said the Scripture ? When you shall have put off Adam with all of his deeds, and shall have put on CHRIST JESUS, the New and the Living Way, then and there you will be able to say,
'He has taken away the 'first that he may establish the second'.
The first was leading in the extreme opposite direction to the positive and to the way to bring Peace and Harmony, but the second bringeth an expression that leadeth in the positive direction continually, to Peace and Harmony, Success and Prosperity, for this is the Way of GOD.
Then I Say, as New Creatures putting on the CHRIST Characteristics, the CHRIST Nature, and the CHRIST Disposition, you become to be New Creatures in reality. You are no longer children of 'the other fellow', but you are the Children of GOD. JESUS was the First-born among many Brethren. As an individual born through and from mortal consciousness, even so should you be Born out of that Adamic state of consciousness completely. JESUS was not born from the mortal version, not by the will of man, neither by the will of the blood, nor by the will of the flesh, but by the Will of GOD. Now isn't that Wonderful! As a Sample and as an Example, the very Body of JESUS came as an outward expression of meekness, and obedience, and self-denial. Each and every individual should copy after this Fashion I have shown them in JESUS. This is the only way to Victory, the only way to show you, he that denies himself wholeheartedly shall be abundantly blessed fully, in spirit, soul and body. But he who exalteth himself as an individual, and desires blessings for a selfish purpose,—they may bring disasters and misery upon themselves. They may be overbalanced in mind, and may cause themselves as individuals to be failures. Oh it is something to consider!
It has been declared by the world of drunkards as I may term it, `Many mixed drinks will run you wild'. They have declared it! Hence if these words are true in such an expression as in the underworld, consider the thought as a sketch and a reflection of a parable of the mystery of trying to mix Truth and misunderstanding; and the falsity of mortal versions, human fancies, tendencies and pleasures, with GOD and with Heaven. Harmony comes by self-denial and consecration, and by the sacrifice of yourselves as individuals wholeheartedly. Harmony will come firstly, within your consciousness, but Harmony will be expressed without. Your physical bodies will manifest it, and others will enjoy it as they see it.
I Thank you.
Now aren't you glad! Fret not yourselves, neither be dismayed because of the workers of iniquity. Fret not yourselves, neither be discouraged because of the misconception and the misunderstanding of some or part of the people, neither be discouraged because of the misunderstanding of those who are called Angels. I have put before them an Understanding. It is your privilege to copy after the Fashion I have shown you, by self-denial and consecration continually; but watch that thought carefully, in other words ignore it completely, that desires to exalt you. It will DESTROY you instead of exalting you. It is indeed Wonderful! WATCH it! It will tell you, 'I will show them'. I have heard that spirit, that thought in you say it—'I have as much right up there where FATHER is, as they have',—I heard you say it, and I will show them, they can't keep me away'. You don't know, you have as much right in the HOSPITAL as others, if you are a citizen of the City, but I am trying to keep you from it. You have as much right in the grave as others, and other miserable expressions such as others are experiencing, but I am trying to keep you away from negation, and from other negative expressions, that you might enjoy My Presence in the Land of the Living, and have Peace on Earth in Heaven.
Take these Thoughts to consideration. If you know you are innocent of self-exaltation; if you know you are innocent of trying to do something selfishly, and other expressions to be seen and heard by Me and` to be seen and heard by others; if you are willing to lose your identity and yourseIves completely in the Infinite, and allow your service, your energy and your mentality to be the servants of GOD completely, and no longer to be seen as an individual, you need no fret nor worry about what others say. But so long as you desire to be seen and heard, so long as you desire to be noticed by any person or persons,—by Myself or by others,—you may know you are doing something for a selfish purpose.
Take these Thoughts to consideration! Deny yourselves whole-heartedly for your own Salvation, for your Salvation lies in losing your identity completely in the Infinite, once and forever. Oh it is something to consider! Why should you desire to be seen or heard by GOD or by man? Deny yourselves, and hide your cursed self from the Face of the Presence of GOD. Now isn't that Wonderful! Your cursed self is antagonistic and conflicting, confused, and negative, and undesirable. Therefore I Think, and actually KNOW combined with Thoughts, it is essential for you to HIDE.
Now the Spirit of unselfishness, RIGHTEOUSNESS, TRUTH a n d JUSTICE must come forth into expression, no longer to be held hid behind the mortal versions for all mortal versions must go. I WILL DISPEL THEM AT MY PRESENCE. They shall have no longer an existence among us, for if they appear slightly in an individual who is expressing the preconceived ideas and opinions of selfishness, they will be discerned by all of us. From henceforth, mortal mind with all your mortal tendencies, fancies and pleasures, STAY IN YOUR PLACES. Oh it is something to consider!
The Spirit in you has declared from time to time, and you all apparently have declared the same, GOD ALONE SHALL REIGN. If this is established, relax your conscious mentality, let go completely, and let GOD act in you, but you had better be sure it is not selfishness expressing, f r o m, and through, and by preconceived and self-exalted ideas and opinions, and selfish mortal tendencies. I Thank you.
PEACE EVERYONE! I have Talked enough, Said enough; stressed enough, explained enough, to refuse and cease to Speak at this time, nevertheless what I have Said I wish to leave it stressfully stressed on your minds. Now this is not for the condemnation of the Emotions of My Spirit in Faithfulness and in Truth through self-denial, but I am especially Speaking of those of you who express in selfishness according to what I aforesaid; and especially those of you who will come up here behind Me, and stand purposely continually all the time, if you can, when the Services are going on, expressing it in emotions in the pretence of trying to deceive GOD. I hope you all remember,—one once endeavored to deceive GOD concerning some coins. They deceived themselves, and others who were concerned were all deceived with them. Now isn't that Wonderful! You cannot deceive GOD. You will only deceive yourself. So I Say to all who endeavor to do such in selfishness, GOD Knows who they are. GOD knows when an individual is moving selfishly, by selfish ideas and self-exalted opinions, human fancies, pleaures, or mortal tendencies. GOD Knows your thoughts GOD knows your disposition! GOD Knows your makeup, your fancies, your pleasures, and all of your tendencies. At least He Knows what these expressions in you consist of, whether they are of Righteousness, and self-denial, and sacrifice, or of selfishness. Now isn't that Wonderful!
We shall have clear-sailing. Some may destructively express an action that may cause destruction or disaster to themselves mentally, but I am Telling you it is not essential, it is not necessary to be mentally unbalanced. Not a bit of it! If you become to be mentally unbalanced, you are mentally unbalanced by selfishness, or some such expression. It matters not how much My Spirit and My Emotion may develop in you; it matters not how much enthusiasm and expressions of emotions you may manifest, it is a matter of impossibility for you to be mentally unbalanced if you are lost in CHRIST and hid in Him completely, and if you will die completely to the flesh and all selfishness.
Take these Thoughts to consideration! I have stressed it vividly for your Salvation. If you will allow My Spirit, and these Words I have Spoken this Morning to adjust matters satisfactorily for you, all things will be adjusted and you will become to be in harmony by self-denial. You will lose your identity and hide it completely. You will be seen no longer, nor heard, save in the Infinite, and in Him you will find Harmony, for GOD will be in harmony with you, I Thank you."
