If You Will Allow Mortality's Version to Make You Unhappy, If You Would Be Sitting On GOD'S Lap You Would Not Be Happy

FATHER'S Message at the New Paltz Extension, The Promised Land
Sunday, January 8th, 1939 A.D.F.D. Time: 3:12 P. M.

 

Truly might one of the composers said in a composition by inspiration, speaking of the Body called Jesus, "I gave, I gave My Life for thee, what hast thou given for Me?" The same sentiments can be voiced today, for FATHER has said on one occasion in words to this effect, when He was in the Sonship degree, He gave His Life for us, but now in the Fathership degree, with all Power, Dominion and Authority, He is giving His Life to us. And though He continues and continues to give to us, some are never satisfied, and the more He does for us, the more dissatisfied and ungrateful some become.

That is why we, in this dispensation, should cause the Heaven and the earth to ring with praises for His Glorious Condescension, for we have never known such Love before. Precious Saviour, we thank Thee.

(The foregoing statements are those of the transcriber, and FATHER'S Song and Message are as follows:)

FATHER and MOTHER DIVINE Serving Us

FATHER and MOTHER DIVINE Servin
"Praise GOD, praise GOD,
Everybody should praise GOD!
The song I sing is what I say,
Every body should praise GOD.
Each and everyone should obey,
Everybody should praise GOD."

Peace, Everyone!

That little composition is well worth considering, if you can conceive the idea concerning the mystery and will be happy eternally in reality. You can be substantiated in faith and unshaken in confidence, but if you will allow mortality's version to make you unhappy, matters not where you are, as I said years ago, if you would be sitting on GOD'S lap, unless you have ME in your heart and on your mind, and have this Peace within, you would not be happy then.

This is quite an experience for you all, to see and know there are thousands of people the height of their ambition is to come all the way from Australia, New Zealand, and other far distant places just to have the privilege one time to sit at one of MY banquet tables. Just think of it! And here it is I do everything materially for you, and lift you and free you from all obligations, every responsibility, and from every tie, and take you right with ME, and then you can't be happy. Now what is the matter? It is wonderful.

This is a true saying, unless you get this peace within, you will not have peace. Unless you get this happiness within, you will not have happiness. Unless you get love within, you will not have love. All of these blessings and attributes, characteristics, and even the spirit and the mind,, and the love, and the protection of GOD must be within. If you do not get both it and them within, you will have none. It is indeed wonderful!

Of course, it is true at times, there may be a sense of compromise of which it is not in reality, for the Scripture must be fulfilled; but yet there may be a sense of compromise at times when I do things for you, more than what you might be entitled to. But as I said, I must fulfill that for which I came, from every angle expressible and prove to the world conclusively, GOD is a living reality and His Love is unlimited. Truly might have one declared,

"He rules the world with truth and grace, and makes the nations prove the glory of His Righteousness and the wonders of His Love."


Hence I cause you to prove My Love, I cause you to prove My glorious, wonderful righteousness and the glory of My Love. Aren't you glad?

By this you can see here and now, there is a reality in GOD'S actual Presence and what He is doing among this people. Aren't you glad? I need not say more, as I AM speaking more distinctly in deeds and in actions. Words of the divers languages of our advanced civilization are inadequate. They cannot bring out the significance of the Allness of GOD and the nothingness of matter among you.

For this cause I will speak in actions and more daily until you all will see Me, and see Me more distinctly. Aren't you glad? It is a privilege to live in such a recognition where the Spirit of My Presence can and will eternally be with you, and will lead you on to victory, if you will allow it to, but just be true. Call on the name of FATHER; I will answer you.

Then I say, build upon this foundation, in accord with same and I will be here and there, and wheresoever you are, if you will recognize MY Presence at all times. I thank you.
