FATHER DIVINE
PEACE EVERYONE! I would just like to say at this instance, those of us who are under the Divine Teaching in this advanced Spiritual Civilization -- they realize that the Word was made Flesh; they realize, if after the manner of men in Hebrew tongue and in the Hebrew language according to the Scripture, since we have both the Teaching of Moses and the prophets and also the Teaching of Jesus -- we know that GOD formed man out of the dust of the ground and we know according to the Scripture, all of GOD'S Creation was invisible in the beginning.
It was essential for GOD to visibilate the earth, for it was void and without form. So long as it was without form it was void, it was impractical, it was unprofitable, it was not good for anything so long as it was void and without form; but GOD formed the earth -- in other words, said,
'Let dry land appear.'
GOD brought into outer expression and into tangibilization and into visibility
the things of the invisible realm, that those things might no longer be impractical,
unprofitable and good for nothing but that they might be made profitable, practical,
tangible, and become to be living factors.
By this, GOD, through His condescension, has brought HIMSELF into visibility; for if intelligence is something supernatural and yet invisible, it would still be impractical and good for nothing; but the tangibilization of the practicality and the practicality of the visible, it causes you to observe the Wisdom, the Knowledge and the Understanding that is commonly known as Intelligence!
Without the visibility of things, Intelligence cannot be brought into outer expression and it cannot be understood, neither can it be practical nor profitable. We might have the principle of mathematics, but unless there is someone to visibilate, tangibilate and personify the principle of mathematics, the principle is impractical, it is unprofitable, it is good for nothing. Therefore it was essential for GOD to tangibilate and materialize HIMSELF that you might realize the rest that you have not yet observed!
Speaking after the manner of men in Moses I told Moses to go down and tell Pharaoh to let My people go! "Go down there and be GOD." I told Moses to go down there and be GOD! "Tell Pharaoh I AM that I AM! If he asks you WHO sent you -- I AM sent you."
Oh it is a privilege to observe the mystery. And aside from all that Moses told you and what Jesus told you, I AM TELLING SOMETHING TODAY! Aren't you glad? I AM bringing into outer expression your fondest imagination concerning Heaven. I AM visibilating and tangibilating and personifying your fondest imagination and I AM causing both it and them to be a living reality.
Something that is merely mythological and superstitiously observed or understood is impractical, unprofitable and misunderstandable; but when, through the condescension of Divine Law and Divine Intelligence, that which was invisible is made visible and brought into outer expression, GOD through His condescension has made it a living reality to this people!
Then I say, those who do not know, when they come in our divers audiences they speak from the world wherein they stand. A good many of them are sincere and conscientious according to their own understanding, but My followers could not take nor will not take the teaching of a man to teach them that I AM a man, nor to tell them that GOD cannot be seen!
GOD IS GOOD! GOD cannot be seen then? GOD IS LOVE! You cannot be loving then? According to those thoughts you can plainly see the misconception of the Truth. GOD IS GOOD! GOD IS LOVE! GOD IS WISDOM, KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING! But all of these combined and any other desirable expression of your spirit, body and mind -- unless you have something to tangibilate it in, it will profit you nothing in My Opinion!
Life is no good without something for it to be in! Life itself, I say, is no good. Wisdom! What good is Wisdom? What good is Understanding? You only know Wisdom by it being in something. A wise man! How can a man be wise? He is wise because he has tangibilated through reincarnation, the Wisdom that has been given, and the reproduction of that Wisdom when it is personified, that man is a wise man!
The Invisible Spirit of life or any other expression you might claim, would profit nothing unless it has something to express in. GOD, through Love and Mercy, came that HE might express and explain HIMSELF to the children of men as a Redeemer and as a Savior of them!
As I said last noon -- I did not say this noon but the last noon, "I AM not a race nor a creed, nor a color; but as a Supernatural Power, as Infinite Spirit, as Universal Mind Substance I CAME! I AM redeeming the children of men, those of the downtrodden and the under-privileged especially, and those of the non-privileged. I CAME TO SAVE THEM!"
It happens to be, those who are commonly known as Jews as a nationality, or as being termed a race -- they have been under-privileged in a great measure throughout all lands and countries. For this cause it happens to be that I AM doing a Work among them because they need My Help; but just as it is right here in this dining room and as I have all access and all dominion under My Personal Jurisdiction, so shall CHRIST and His Domain go from shore to shore and from land to land and all of the peoples of the earth shall have an equal chance!
Those who have been under-privileged and non-privileged, they have called on ME in a great measure; therefore they are called My chosen people, those who have sought ME diligently. It is not because they are especially better than any other people, saving because of the oppressions and the suppressions that they have been brought into subjection to, to prohibit them from expressing among other nations and among other people; therefore they called on ME diligently and I heard and answered their prayer!
As I said some time ago, "As a nation oppressed and mistreated, if those who call themselves Jewish people will but accept of My Message and come believing, I will give them their real emancipation from those undesirable conditions and will give them an existence and an access in the land of the living, on equality with all other people!" Aren't you glad? But this is not confined to a nationality, race nor color -- it is free for each and everybody, those who will but accept of the Message. It is applicable to each and every person, but it happens to be -- those who have been under-privileged and mistreated and non-privileged, naturally My Spirit came and I Myself, which are ONE, to emancipate the under-privileged, the mistreated and downtrodden, and given them a Privilege where they did not have one.!
As I say, just as I have it here and just as I have free access in this dining room for expression, so shall I give all people their real emancipation if they will LET ME! They shall not be mistreated and downtrodden and be under-privileged, but all shall have a Privilege -- such a Privilege that no man can give -- if they will but accept of ME! Aren't you glad?
I stress this dining room. I would like to say to our visiting friends, those who do not know -- this is a matter of course with us. I AM daily administering the Spirit of My Presence, of Wisdom, of Knowledge and Understanding to this people wheresoever I assemble, and I CANNOT KEEP THEM AWAY FROM ME!
We go back to the Book of Moses for your consideration, one of the books well worth considering, the Book of Genesis --
'The law shall not depart from Judah nor the law-giver from between his feet, until Shiloh come; but when Shiloh come, the gathering of the people shall be unto Him.'
Can you not see it is fulfilled this day in your hearing? If you take the old
Bible commonly known as the Jewish Bible, you can see, first the Jews and also
the Greeks or the Gentiles, the Message is so freely given! AS A REDEEMER AND
SAVIOR I CAME TO THEM!
Truly might have one declared even in Israel under Judaism:
'Tell Israel her transgressions and the House of Jacob her sins.'
That is what I have done and that is what I AM doing! That is the purpose for
which I Came. Now this is it of which has been spoken by the prophets, the sages
and the seers. Many may desire to prohibit it, but it is something ON that cannot
be prohibited!
As I said the other day, GOD, even in the name of Moses, did overcome Pharaoh and his host. GOD will overcome all of your foes and will give you victory wheresoever you go, if you only know the Truth concerning the mystery and allow GOD to be at all times in reality with you! Tell Moses, in other words,
'Moses, go down and tell Pharaoh, let My people go!'
Tell him, if after the manner of men in speaking in our language -- I could have
said to Moses, "Tell Pharaoh that you are ME, that you are GOD Who has come
to free the people."
It was verified by this that has been spoken and heard down through Judaism to all of the Christian world --
'I AM the LORD your GOD Who has brought you out of the land of Egypt and out of the house of bondage.'
He did not say, I AM the LORD your GOD Who sent Moses down there to bring you
out of the land of Egypt and out of the house of bondage," but,
'I AM the Lord your GOD Who has brought you out of the land of Egypt and out of the house of bondage!'
Although GOD did put on a BODILY FORM in the name of a man in the likeness of them as being called a Hebrew son, to lead those out that were there -- HE used the likeness as a Sample and as an Example, but yet GOD was not confined to the Hebrew son, but HE appeared at that time to them for the purpose of leading them out.
'I will make you fishers of men," Jesus said.
The bait you bait your hook with, may attract and catch the fish. You may
not eat the bait yourself but the fish will attempt to eat the bait, but if you
get the fish you will eat the fish.
GOD brought you out of the land of Egypt and out of the house of bondage. Although humanly speaking you may term it as a bait, GOD came in the likeness of the Israelites, although they did not know HE appeared there; but when they found out HE was there in the likeness of them and brought up with them to lead them out of bondage, and then GOD turned around and said,
'I AM the LORD your GOD Who has brought you out of the land of Egypt'
-- then how did Moses do it if GOD did it? That is, if Moses was not another
one!
But because GOD was the ONLY ONE Who could do it, GOD did it, and even if HE looked as a man, it was GOD Who led them by the hand safely out of the land of Egypt and out of the wilderness across the Jordan, in sweet Canaan land!
Take these thoughts to consideration and build upon this Foundation and I will be with you and give you the victory, for I HAVE IT! I say, I will free those who are bound, if they will allow ME to and will do as these do by harmonizing with ME -- but if you have your ideas and your opinions and try to make ME something invisible, why, then I will see, can the invisible Spirit save you without a Body!
GOD may allow the invisible Spirit to save your invisible spirit, just as thousands of invisible spirits are saved, invisible minds, ideas and spirits. The visible bodies are being lost for the lack of understanding. I thank you. I thank you. I thank you.
PEACE EVERYONE! Just before I leave that thought I wish to say, so long as you make GOD something impractical, unprofitable and a non-reality, why, they will always do you as they wish to do you. They have been doing that until GOD CAME IN A BODY!
I was just as much here and AM just as much there where I AM not seen and where I had not been seen, as I AM and have been where I have been seen! I say this because you may think I AM speaking of matter, and yet I AM speaking of a Tabernacle. I AM speaking of the visibility of things for the Redemption of the visible bodies as souls, of the children of men!
I AM speaking of this very distinctly because you know definitely, with the people praying to GOD in the sky or some invisible substance without any concept concerning the tangibilization of GOD -- their spirits may have been saved as being termed the souls, but they have suffered many hardships, My brother, and are still suffering. THEY NEED A REDEEMER! THEY NEED A SAVIOR!
If they are in bodies, they need a SAVIOR Who is in a Body! Hard saying but yet it is true. So long as they can get you, My followers, to believe that GOD is merely something as they always have been saying -- they have always been saying GOD IS SPIRIT and something invisible, but they can do as they please. They can murder, steal, they can put you in bondage and put you in the concentration camps and still have you thinking you are going to Heaven some place. If GOD is not made Real to you, you will not have your real emancipation from the undesirable conditions that are and have been existing. I thank you. I thank you. I thank you.
