The Ark of the Covenant
Truly, it can be said, "There is no love or wisdom greater than that of GOD." We who are blessed to be living in this day and time with the Body of GOD, find ourselves without words of the English language to express what we would like to say in reference to the beautiful Words which flowed from the Mouth of our LORD and Savior on this occasion. We humbly thank FATHER for His Words and appeal to you all to read them so that you may obtain a slight sketch of His Love that HE is so freely giving to one and all!
(The foregoing statements are those of the transcriber, and FATHER Speaks as follows:)
PEACE EVERYONE! Here we all are again; there I sit and stand, in the Unity of the Spirit, of Mind, of Aim and of Purpose and bringing you up to this place in consciousness where I AM Personally, to realize as I have said, yea, as we have said by composition, "One Eternal Merry Christmas and One Eternal Happy New Year."
I do not believe in saying or doing anything through formality, for formality put forth into expression in your conscious mentality, is but an expression of carnality.
'To be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace!'
For this cause, I AM informal (Aren't you glad?) in words, in deeds and in actions
and in My everyday transactions. Aren't you glad! ("So glad, LORD!" came
the reply.) By this we shall have a Righteous Government and the kindreds of
the earth shall be eventually partakers of this great contagion of the Consciousness
of GOD'S Presence and the Magneticness of it!
I would like to say before I further go, as this day is commonly known as New Year's Day, that is, to the Christian world, it is even commonly known by all men as Christmas Day for the Christian world; but by the Christian world, it is worshiped and revered as a day of celebration for the commemoration of the 25th of December just past, representing Christmas, but realizing GOD is One and is Eternal, we realize there is One Eternal Christmas Day; in other words, One Eternal CHRIST MASS DAY, and One Eternal New Year!
We shall live in this recognition! By the Spirit of My Presence transmitted in the composition in the actuated words of expression, by rehearsing and by reiteration, by repeating over and over again we shall commit this Truth to memory. It shall be made a living reality; One Eternal Merry Christmas and One Eternal Happy New Year!
This is the day, as afore said, as being termed New Year's Day, but it is commonly considered as a day among the superstitious, taking it superstitiously, whatsoever you do on New Year's Day, you will be doing all the year. It is further considered and often rehearsed as true, that the twelve days of the first month of the year, they represent the twelve months of the year. Today being January, a beautiful cold day here, but in some other parts it may not be quite so cold. Nevertheless, superstition among the world of superstitious phraseology, they say, "Whatsoever you do on the first day of the year, New Year's Day, you will be doing all the year." Whatsoever nature puts forth as weather on the first day of the year, is a sample and example of the first month of the year, and from thence on until the twelve days have passed.
But oh, how glorious it is to realize over and above superstition, we are no longer living in such a recognition, but in the consciousness of what I Am telling you, GOD Is Actually Present! When I say, "GOD Is Present," I mean in the actuated words of expression, GOD is Present, functioning and operating in every field of endeavor, ruling and having His way!
But, as I say, this "One Eternal New Year Day" should not merely be a phrase, a motto, or an expression, but you should realize every day characteristically and dispositionally, yea, devotedly and reverently, you should revere GOD, your Great Creator and love one another and express love brotherly, even as you are doing it today! - - of every nation, of every language, every tongue and every people! I AM bringing you all together in the Unity of Spirit, of Mind, of Aim and of Purpose, where there will be no more divisibility among us!
I cannot stress that thought too vividly, for I have long since declared Scripturally,
'He that puts his trust in ME shall never be confounded!'
I have further declared,
'Together you stand, but divided you fall!'
The cause for the great failure in the earth today among the nations, and the
cause of the great warfare and bloodshed from shore to shore and from land to
land, it is all because of being divided among yourselves and among themselves
as the children of men. But, I have come as an abstract expression, causing you
to recognize GOD'S Actual Presence and have made this declaration, and you have
declared, I AM YOUR FATHER! ("So true, LORD!"
sanctioned the joyful assembly.)
I could not be your FATHER, unless I would be the FATHER of one and all! Those who are living in mortal consciousness and observe limited lineages of families, they are made subject to divisibility of the children of men and to their diverse divisions and confusions, because they are divided in heart and in mind and they bring about inharmonious conditions by being divided and mentally conflicting. They also conflict physically, economically and otherwise. For this cause, I have come and called for the Universal Brotherhood of Man and the Consciousness of the FATHERHOOD of GOD, and you have recognized MY DEITY and realize MY Presence; to you I AM at least as much as your FATHER and MOTHER COULD BE!
To establish the Universal Brotherhood of Man and the Conscious Realization of the FATHERHOOD of GOD, we are happy to bring you all into the Unity of the Spirit, of Mind, of Aim and of Purpose and to cause you to be conscious of GOD'S Actual Presence. Not only suppositionally, but to be conscious of GOD'S Presence Personally! It causes your persons, yea, your personages collectively, to be unified together and to live in unison and speak and act thus accordingly. By this, we have a Righteous Government and there shall be no more confusion among the Nations. When all of you, MY adherents adhere to MY Teaching effectively and Unite Universally together, there will be Peace on Earth and Goodwill to Men!
When you speak of the Brotherhood of Man this is not just a superstitious theory, as it may be termed, but we have brought these things into actuality. We have made those things to be a reality, because I have impregnated you with the Spirit of Love, of Unity and of Brotherhood until you are closer to each other than you would have been to those of your brothers!
This shall go down on record; this, the First Day of January and the First Day of the Year 1951; as a Day that I have drawn all Nations together in the Great Congress of the Infinite One, to bring about that which you and all Nations sought for and mourned because they found it not!
This is the Country Seat of the Universe! (Aren't you glad!) I have called you together to recognize your inheritance and to come into possession thereof; for truly, this, the Country Seat of all of the countries of the Universe, all Nations, Languages, Tongues and People shall recognize It, for truly this, even in the beginning, was set apart as the Cradle of Democracy, being the Cradle of Democracy, where True Democracy was born (Can you not see the mystery?) and its offspring coming into the consciousness of GOD'S Presence and laying the foundation for the Kingdom of GOD, as being termed the Kingdom of Heaven.
Many events have taken place in this as was once the Cradle of Democracy, but, in the Country Seat of the World I AM bringing you all together from shore to shore and from land to land and those who are conscious of GOD'S Actual Presence, they will not live in lacks and wants and limitations again. Aren't you glad!
For as by composition many years ago, I have declared,
'The Spirit of the Consciousness of the Presence of GOD is the Source of all Supply and it will satisfy every Good Desire!" --
not only it will satisfy every good desire, but it actually does satisfy every
good desire, for the Spirit of GOD'S Presence and the Consciousness of it is
the Satisfier of all Desires!
GOD would not create a Desire that HE cannot or could not satisfy. So long as your Desires are legitimate, evangelical, democratic and unselfish, GOD will build upon your Desires in bringing about a Righteous Government. For I did declare prophetically, yea, I declared it in the Psalmic prediction of David,
'Righteousness and Judgment are the Habitation of His Throne; the earth saw and trembled!'
That is where I AM dwelling, that place there in consciousness where Righteousness
abounds and where Righteousness has access among the children of men and equity
and justice on every hand. There is My Throne!
I have long since declared,
'Wheresoever a king reigns, there is where his kingdom is.'
Just think of enthroning CHRIST on the Throne of your minds, by firstly being
impregnated and converted with, and becoming to be the personification of Righteousness
of heart and of mind, of will and of your Desires, of your ideas and of your
opinions -- all of your mentality becoming to be converted into Righteousness,
into Truth and into Justice and into Equity for all! There is where the CHRIST
has been enthroned and shall reign as LORD of Lords and KING of Kings. NOW WILL
YOU LET ME IN?
By becoming to be as though you are Righteous women and men, wheresoever Righteousness has access for expression, there is where CHRIST will be enthroned and there is where He Shall Reign. I AM Raising up a Righteous Government in the land! My People will live Soberly, Righteously and Godly and will reproduce the Nature and Characteristics and the Disposition and the Mind and the Spirit of the ALMIGHTY, and no longer observe it suppositionally far away, but realize it is a tangible ecstasy, incarnated and personified in the hearts and lives of men. That's what I AM talking about!
When you pray as a repetition and as a reiteration of the Prayer Jesus taught the disciples to pray,
'to let the Kingdom come and the Will be done on earth as it is in Heaven,'
I hope you did not one time, or continue to think since I came that it was something
coming down out of the sky as a Government supposed to be the Kingdom of GOD
as you once observed things; but it would have been explicitly depicted and you
could have definitely observed it, that the Kingdom of GOD is the Government
of Righteousness, but it's transmitted and reincarnated and your bodies are the
temples of the living GOD. GOD has said,
'I will walk in them and dwell in them.'
If I walk in your bodies and dwell in them, the often rehearsed quotation of
Jesus will be fulfilled where I said,
'He dwelleth with you and shall be in you!'
When I come into you aright and you are in ME aright, the Scripture is actually
fulfilled:
'The Kingdom of GOD cometh not by observation, but behold, the Kingdom of GOD is within you!'
When you realize this, you will live soberly, righteously and Godly. You will
regulate your thoughts and your mind, your ideas and your opinions, soberly and
unselfishly, but democratically and evangelically!
Oh, what a privilege to live in such a recognition and to build upon such a Foundation as this one for truly, you can see the ushering in of the Kingdom of GOD, the Government for which you all have prayed under the LORD'S Prayer, as it may be termed,
'Let Thy Kingdom come and Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven!'
Then you will know that you will no longer need feel as if though you must needs
go to the Kingdom some place far above the sky, for I have further declared scientifically,
'The sky is nowhere and is nothing, but everywhere where there is nothing!'
But, behold, the People is one! I have made you ONE! No longer to have you believe
as the ignorant individuals did at the time of the building of the Tower of Babel,
when they became one, to try to go up into the heaven or up in the sky some place,
but go to now, and I will show them! I will show them something! Even at that
time, even though they were in ignorance and trying to go up into heaven erroneously,
trying to build the tower up into Heaven, I said,
'Behold, the people is one and this they begin to do, now nothing will be restrained from them to do that which they have imagined to do!!
For this cause, I confounded their language and speech. Can you not see the mystery?
And they had many speeches or tongues and could not understand each other. But,
this time when I Came as I come this morning, I said,
'They shall have one language and shall be of one speech!'
When they all have one language evangelically, democratically and harmoniously
and live soberly, righteously and godly,
'nothing will be restrained from them to do that which they may imagine to do!'
The different languages, and different tongues were confusing to each other.
Can you not see the mystery? But even diplomatically, nationally and politically
I have called for One Language, One Tongue and One Speech so that we could be
One in reality and recognize the Ever Presence of the ALMIGHTY!
This is a beautiful Day -- a day to behold, as afore said, the nations from every country, from every land and from every clime coming to this, the Country Seat of the World!
We, the people, are dramatizing in all sincerity the dramatization of that of which we are believing and that of which we are actually teaching. One Eternal Merry Christmas and One Eternal Happy New Year! As we dramatize it dramatically and sing it consolidatedly and in all sincerity, and get it perfectly, others will get it from this, the Country Seat of all countries! And upon this day, from here on, let us sing it with one accord! That is why we have it in music, so that we can sing it with one accord; those who know music and those who do not know music -- we all might sing it by the melody and sound thereof (Can you not see the mystery?) and realize this is One Eternal Merry Christmas and One Eternal Happy New Year!
Realizing this One Eternal Merry Christmas and One Eternal Happy New Year, you will also find in it, and even in the wording of the composition, the Consciousness of GOD'S Presence will give you the Abundance on every hand! By singing it and stressing it in your minds continually, I will plant it in your minds and in your memory, and it will be a matter of impossibility to forget it, and then I will ever be with you! Aren't you glad? ("So glad, LORD!" came the instant reply.)
For this day and for the next week, until thousands and millions of others get it, let us sing it conscientiously and sincerely! Every one of us should have a New Day as a textbook and also as a song book with your notes in it, if you please. You should carry your textbook, your notebook, to the table with you in the Churches and Auditorium with you -- in your classrooms. You can even have the opening and closing song as that of the One Eternal Merry Christmas and One Eternal Happy New Year!
When you sing it and stress it continually and stamp it vividly and indelibly in your memory, it will be a living reality! Truly, GOD will be with you! Why I say, "stress it vividly and constantly," is because the thing you vividly visualize, you tend to materialize; and when you are conscious of One Eternal Merry Christmas and One Eternal Happy New Year, you will be just as the old-fashioned Christians are; those of whom have been dug up by the plowshares of the Gospel and have been set free by the Holy Ghost, in the old-fashioned way!
They remember the time and they remember the day when their dungeons shook and their chains fell off! Every time they begin to think about the Time and the Day when they were dug up by the plowshares of the Gospel and set free by the Holy Ghost, they get the witness of this mighty Holy Spirit! It reacts upon them and naught can hinder them because they have been revived again and renewed by the selfsame Holy Ghost! Aren't you glad! ("So glad!" came the reply.) Remember the Day, remember the Time when your dungeons shook and your chains fell off, and when this is done, you will get the witness of the Spirit again, for it is at all times in the same place where you find HIM! I thank you.
