The House of the Lord
It is a grand and glorious privilege to be living in the Presence of the LORD and to be the "eye-witness" of His Glories and even more than that, to be the partakers and the fulfillers of His mysteries and the receivers of His blessings and the observers of His secrets. It is truly wonderful to be living in this Dispensation, whereby the redeeming Grace of GOD confers upon us, the right to become the Sons of GOD.
Truly might have the early Christians declared by the way of composition:
'GOD does not speak like a natural man,
GOD does not speak like a natural man,
HE speaks so plain, so that all can understand,
GOD does not speak like a natural man.'
As we sit and stand daily in the Presence of the LORD and listen to the great
Truths, the supreme Wisdom of GOD, as they come forth from the "Secret Place
of the Most High", surely are we convinced that the Voice we hear, is not
the voice of man, and the Body we discern, is not the body of man, for HE speaks
unto us, not like a natural man, neither does HE appear unto us like unto a natural
man, but lo, we behold the Tabernacle of GOD, dwelling in our very midst, and
the Words that proceed forth from His Mouth penetrate the heart, and are like
a burning fire within our beings, burning up the dross and refining the gold.
Read this very beautiful Message, if you wish to and learn the hidden mysteries of GOD. By adhering to these Truths, you will understand that the beginning of a New Dispensation has dawned; therefore, "We are in another Day", as verified by the song which FATHER so often sings, and we have become citizens of Heaven on earth among men, under the rule and reign of CHRIST, our LORD and our KING, FATHER DIVINE. This is a rare and most beautiful Message and worth everyone considering it. These are the exact Words of our great Teacher, the Dean of the universe as HE imparted them to us, as we assembled around the Banquet Table.
FATHER preceded His Message with the following song:
'I have entered in the Room where the POWER is given,
I have entered in the Room with the LORD our GOD;
I have entered in the Room where the POWER is given,
I have entered in the Upper Room.
'There is Power, Power,
Giving Victory over sin, and Purity within.
There is Power, Power,
There is Power in the Upper Room.'
(FATHER speaks as follows:)
Good Health! Good Will! And a Good Appetite, with a heart full of merriness, everybody filled with enthusiasm, Joy and Happiness and Love beyond measure.
That little composition, the little song, "You are in another Day"; this is not merely a composition as a formula to be repeated and reiterated from time to time, but it is an actual fact. These are actual facts and figures too stout to be denied. The time and the times that have been, shall be no more, for "You are in another Day."
I mean this is a reality, and I verify the same from shore to shore and from land to land, and I shall cause all of the nations of the earth to understand the time that has been, shall not be again, for "You are in another Day."
Oh, it is a privilege to realize, the time has truly come,
'GOD has actually glorified His Son.'
I do not mean to say, GOD has merely glorified His Son mystically and in an imagination,
but GOD has glorified His Son in actuality and the very action of His Son is
observed, for the actions are observable. Then I say, "Shout the Victory" the
victory over sickness, over diseases, over sorrow; victory over pain and death.
By getting the victory over sin, over vice and over crime, dishonesty and self,
you have won the victory over sickness, sorrow, pain and death. Then I say, "You
are in another Day", because you are not in a day of misery; you are not
in a day where your sorrows, your worries, your shortcomings and your handicaps,
adverse and undesirable conditions can get the better part of you. You are in
a day wherein GOD has actually glorified His Son, by bringing His Son into actuality,
causing mankind to consciously realize GOD is a Living Reality, and a Living
Factor in the hearts and lives of humanity.
This is the mystery of the victory of which I AM speaking, not merely these emotions and expressions, not merely the power of speech as a philosopher; not merely the words at My Command from the earth's vocabularies, but the Power that gives victory over all adversities, then I say, "You are in another Day." Each of you, if you realize it, can and should shout the Victory. We shall not merely shout the Victory in words, but as words are inadequate and insufficient, we shall shout the Victory in Deeds and in Actions.
In the producing and bringing into actuality and into our conscious realization the limitless blessings of Victory over limitation, is not this a symbol of a sketch and a reflection of a percent of a percent of a percent of a fraction of a grain of this wonderful Mystery of which I have been speaking and of this wonderful Victory of which we are now shouting? Then I say, "Shout the Victory." Victory over every difficulty, victory over every limitation, Victory over all adverse and undesirable conditions, victory over every barrier; victory over sickness, over poverty; victory over shortcomings, victory over every detestable and undesirable expression. The very Name of GOD in itself is victory over sorrow, pain and death and everything else that spells the curse.
That is what I AM talking about! You need not doubt, neither need you fear. I heard the song in the composition that I sung say, "For JESUS CHRIST, your LORD is here."
'All rivers are crossed There is no more sea. You are in this land to stay.'
For the Tabernacle of GOD is with men, and HE is now dwelling right here with
them, and GOD is wiping all tears from your eyes.
'There shall be no more sorrow and there shall be no more crying, for the former things have passed away.'
Now isn't that wonderful?
'I, John" declared he "saw the Holy City and the New Jerusalem, coming down from GOD, out of that imaginary heaven, for the first heaven and the first earth have passed away.'
The first heaven and that imaginary heaven where all of the Religions have kept
their GOD shut up in a box seat, and made laws, not as laws of prohibition of
beers and liquors, but they have made laws I mean the different Religions have
made laws of prohibition to prohibit GOD from coming from Heaven; but the law
that was to prohibit GOD from coming from Heaven, HE has broken that law.
GOD is a law-breaker and a law-violator; especially of the detestable and hateful, selfish laws that the Religions have set up by their imaginations, to keep GOD in that imaginary heaven, the prison of conventionality, the prison of theology, the prison of the theories and doctrines of the versions of men, which have striven to keep GOD and CHRIST there bound within; but John caught the glimpse of it, and he said,
'I saw a new Heaven and a new earth, for the first
Heaven and the first earth have passed away.'
Do you not see the mystical and imaginary heaven of the mortal people's version
passing away? ("It is true, FATHER," sanctioned the assembly.) You
know it is true! That mystical and imaginary heaven and the mortal people's versions
with all of their Religions, are passing away.
'I John saw the Holy City and the New Jerusalem,'
he declared. All of these desirable expressions coming from that mystical and
imaginary heaven that had been created by the different Religions, to keep HIM,
and to prohibit HIM from coming to the earth plane to reign, for that mystical
and imaginary heaven is the heaven that was created by the mortal versions and
the imaginations of the different Religions, to keep CHRIST and GOD bound therein,
as a prison, that HE could not come to the earth plane to Reign and have Dominion
over them.
That is why they have striven to keep HIM in that mystical and imaginary heaven of which was in reality, a mental and a spiritual prison, that HE might not come to reign on earth, according to the Scripture. David caught a glimpse of this, of which I AM speaking. He said,
'The LORD reigneth. Let the multitudes of the Isles be glad thereof . .
Let the trees of the field clap their hands.'
(A beautiful picture was presented with the thousands of clapping hands, upward
stretched, and the rumble of other thousands up in the Auditorium, was plainly
heard.) He said:
'The Light has shone for the righteous,
and gladness for the upright in heart.'
Now aren't you glad? ("So glad!" assured the throng.)
The righteous and the upright of which we are now speaking, and of whom we are now reflecting, they are rejoicing and they observe the Light, and they are glad the LORD Reigneth. Let us recognize and realize the Reign of GOD on earth, for HE declared:
'The earth saw and trembled.
'HE rules the earth and HE Rules the
world with Truth and with Grace.'
Worship HIM, all ye gods, for HE has truly come.
You have kept GOD in prison long enough in the imaginations of the versions of all of the Religions, each and all of them, even the instigation through which GOD, the great Creator, the Maker of earth and of Heaven, has been kept in that mystical and imaginary prison, better known as "Heaven", but GOD has broken the chains as an abstract and outward expression concerning this Mystery, and this version of which I AM speaking. They have taken the case of the trial of Jesus to the Appellate Division to get a new decision. Have they not kept CHRIST in the mystical and imaginary prison up until this day in which we are now living?
But "You are in another Day"; therefore, praise GOD, for the case of CHRIST and GOD has gone to the Appellate Division of the CHRIST Consciousness, in the real HEAVEN, and they have reversed the Decision, and given GOD and CHRIST their FREEDOM. Now HE has been FREED from that mystical and imaginary heaven, so that HE can come down to the earth to Reign. This is the purpose for which I came.
These are hard sayings, but yet they are true if not to others, they are to you. Then I say, "You are in another Day; oh, shout the Victory," for the Victory has been won and the battle has been fought. The Victory has in reality been achieved on Israel's side, and CHRIST is Free, although HE died. I think I had better stop. (Oh, it's so wonderful!" emphasized the assembly.)
Then, as the speaker was speaking a little while ago, My thought ran to the mystery and the reality of the composition:
'You have entered in the Room where the Power is given.'
The original composition says, or in other words, it says,
'I have entered in the Room where the Power is given.
'I have entered the Room with the Sanctified";
(But the transposed version, speaking in the name of
this speaker here I said, in the name of you,)
'You have entered in the Room where the Power is given,
You have entered in the Room with the LORD your GOD;
You have entered in the Room where the Power is given,
You have entered in the Upper Room.'
(Then it goes on to say:)
'There is Power, Power! Giving Victory
over sin and it's Purity within,
There is Power! Power!
There is Power in the LORD, your GOD.'
Oh it is a privilege to live in the actual Presence of GOD, where the transposed
version of every composition becomes to be a living reality, as you are transformed
by the renewing of your mind; then "Enter in the Room where the Power is
given." This does not merely mean power in expression to holler as loud
as a whistle can blow, as I do; but it means Authority . . . Power means Authority.
Is not this a Power beyond degrees? ("Truly so!"
remarked the people.) Power and Victory over all misery. Power and Victory over
all adversities; Power and Victory over all undesirable conditions; Power and
Victory over poverty, lacks, wants and limitations. This is the Power of which
I AM speaking, and not merely the power that will give you strength to speak
loud as a person, but Power with Dominion and Authority over every adversity.
I thank you.
Peace Everyone: I will not bore you longer. ("Oh, FATHER!" exclaimed the multitude.) Pass your plates up, please; those of us who have dined, will pass out and pass on and pass away quickly and quietly please, and allow others to come forward and take our seats, if they wish to eat. I thank you!
