Scripture Reading: John, 14th chapter

Blessings, children of the Light. We would speak with you this evening on the great contrast between the belief in the mortal mind and the knowing of reality in the soul. There has been such confusion between these two. One cannot know the difference until he experiences it. That which the Master left with his close disciples, that which he gave to them before he left physically, was the ability to know the difference, to be able to discern between that of the world and that of Spirit.

We brought about the reading of these words that you, as disciples, could have a closer identification with the words that Jesus literally left in you and for you, so that you would not lose faith, that you would hold true to that which you had started. The commandment to love one another could not be understood until the higher commandment was understood--that of loving the Father with all your heart and being, to be filled with the lmowledge of your Lord within every cell of your being. When you know your Lord you can love one another.

Jesus demonstrated the great law before the eyes of the disciples; he did not try to tell the multitudes of these things. He told them many other things, but he told the inner mysteries to the close disciples, that they be faithful throughout, and realize when all went according to the Father's plan, not being disappointed if it were not as they expected, Yet they promptly forgot this after the crucifixion and went away sad and disillusioned, thinking it had failed. (See that you do not forget now, that you do not become disillusioned with Heaven-and your Lord. Rather let your disillusionment come from seeing the world for what it is. You must want no part of it.) When the disciples could recognize that the power that worked through Jesus was the Creative Force functioning through its instrument, then that Life Force worked through them ard angels walked with and ministered unto each,

The beliefs of the mortal mind are an accumulation of the facts that have been brought forth in many writings and books, thoughts entering through the intellect. Jfany must approach through the intellect; they seem to know no other ways. But they must know that there is another way amd finally move across the gulf between, letting it sink deep within the soul so that it become reality, and then they will know the true from the false. Only the spirit of God within can recognize, identify and know for a certainty.

Man has relied upon all other ways, other individuals, rather than trusting that deep within. He has learned that he cannot trust the superficial, outer shell of his being, or the intellect, or the emotions, but he has not taken the time nor the prayerful desire to go deep, to see beyond the mask on the surface so as to bridge the gulf between reality and unreality--the mortal beliefs of unreality, or the soul knowing of cosmic truths in reality. When one reads, converses or meditates, it must be with the knowing of which is which, or deception shall enter in. When one desires with all his heart to know, and he prays and prays and prays, God begins to reveal, in ways that oan

be recognized, the difference between, and the contrast becomes greater and greater,

We have brought you through many concepts up the steps (you might say) of a great, great pyramid leading unto Heaven, with the Christ the capstone--that designed by Gods Keep your eyes upon the Christhood of Jesus, the Master and Lord, with faith in that which he gave unto your souls--that through you the Father would do even more and would raise you, up to the fulfilment of His Plan for the begotten--that you too would move into Christhood in the capstone of the pyramid, walking up the steps through initiations, on and on, with your eyes on the goal rather than on yourselves. Then these concepts that we have presented to you (and brought into the soul as much as possible) will become a living reality to you.

Many times we have bypassed the curiosity of your mortal minds to allow the pleading soul to be so fed. It enters the cells of divine intelligence in your being, that soul remembrance be brought to the surface. The Master promised that all things would be brought to your remembrance in the days at the end of the age. Before he left in the flesh he gave all the answers that you could possibly ask for, but they sound as nothing to your intellect until, in the dawning of. consciousness, in your expanded awareness of soul, greater light reveals the meaning and you know that he has spoken truths unto each of you.

You are the branches of the vine, as he saids you are part of his body. As these truths are revealed in greater light your souls will begin to know the reality of being. Then these concepts shall mean more to you, become reality. Then you will believe your Master. He has shared with you, has given you of his spirit, has laid down his life for yous; he has explained over and over, has called you his friends, sharing the great mysteries with you. He said, "Bq still and know," and when he said, "I am the way," he was saying, “I am the road you travel; I am the law being demonstrated." It is in action before you. See the cause, see the effect, the results. Cause and effect, always. Know that that which is born of God becomes the fruit of God--the reality of the eternal life.

It was so easy for you to believe the unreality of your enemy, Satan. Why do you not believe, in the depths of your souls, that your Lord is and is one with the Father as the first of the begotten, which the Father raised up according to His Plan, to manifest the perfect state of being? The Father is in each one. His Spirit existed before that which was begotten, but as the power is increased, is magnified, this is indeed the glorifying of the Father in you--multiples of energies expanded into greater consciousness, greater realization, greater functioning of the Spirit--love transforming into that which the Plan will reveal,

This is the whole mystery of the Trinity operating in you, whether you say the principle of the Father-Mother God bringing forth sons, or whether you say Father, Son and Holy Spirit. It is the love which begets; the light is that which is the energy of Creation going forth in rates of vibration, according to purpose, revealing all that is within it as it expands and ideas, plans go forth. Love reproduces of like kind, puts the plan in action, into formation. That is why the "Begotten" bring forth, create upon the planets-- an unfolding, never-ending reproductive system of creative forces--energy going forth in greater expansion, greater action, producing those who shall govern that action. This is “worlds without end"--no beginning, no ending--expansion of everlasting consciousness functioning in intelligent plan, with love sustaining it

This is but a glimpse of the Infinite; with the finite mind you cannot comprehend fully the Infinite. But you will move from that finite mind

< into greater expansion (ascending), and when you realize the large, large Picture of Life you. will throw away all the. preconceived ideas and beliefs of the mortal mind. You picked them out of nowhere; turn them back. Empty the temple of self and all that it accumulated along the way, Pray, with great desire, to be:filled completely with the Holy Spirit of God in action in you-- love. in action, using the temple prepared for its use in the great Plan of Creation.

If you do not understand it trust it anyway, and begin to bridge the gulf. Let concepts that enter the mind come on through into soul experience and become knowledge. Then you have something to hold to. Or better still, turn within and pray that God reveal more and more to you. Ask that the Holy Spirit of God guide you in everything you read or Say or do, being conscious of that Presence, and of the Kingdom of God within you. As you read and ask you Open a focus, Then you will cultivate that habit of turning within to God every time, for every answer. If only young people could start out with this they would never become confused adults living in chaos. Place your faith in this, not in what anyone else would say, and go deep within the center of your being. Know: and know that you know.

Finally, as the contrast becomes greater and greater, the sword of the Christ shall sever, as Jesus said. That within you shall grow into the fullness of the Christ nature, and you shall know who you are just as surely as Peter recognized the Son of God in Jesus. This is a great awakening. When you know fully that in the Spirit, in the Plan of God, you are His son, growing into Christhood, you kneel in joy and thanksgiving. Then in gratitude you stand up and say, “I go unto my Father." When you reach a point of fulfilment you

: ascend, in greater expansion, to the farther realms of Infinity, but you are ry still aware of all parts of all Creation because you are one with it. Then you have access to it and function fully in His name. Of necessity you must move in His will that this take place, or you remain forever earthbound, or worse. The very principle of Creation itself calls for that condition to be mete It is the functioning of all that is the Creator within yous then you become cocreator with the higher direction.

This is why we have led you up the steps for so long--that it finally sink into, your souls and you truly become one with it. After leading you so far we had faith that you were ready to go through new doors, so Spirit prompted you to assemble at Wastena (this place of retreat from the world) and open doors into Heaven. As you are being prepared to move through the portals from the third dimension into the fourth, you begin to see, in part. Then in this next phase of your life experience, through choice and desire, you move willingly into the Kingdom prepared for you by the one who went before and is coming to claim you as his own. This is the overall significance of each step that you climb.

With love and desire to minister unto you, we have been mercifully bearing with you until you move straight through the doors and on up the road, following in the steps of your Lord. We would suggest that you carefully read and listen tv this series of lessons brought forth here at this retreat, putting aside mortal beliefs, letting the spirit within bear witness to the truth as you are exposed to it in the Light and in higher consciousness. They are for all those who have progressed up the ladder to higher steps of initiation, soul growth and dedication to the Lord's service.

, We ask that these lessons be put into three volumes: The Fourth Dimension Discipleship, The Upper Room with the Master and Entering the Door into Paradise. There is both symbolism and reality in these titles. Throughout ( the long series it has been our purpose to show you the parallels in these Concepts so that you see that'there is the same law governing the microcosm and the macrocosm, all within the small and the great.

As you move in the human nature, realize that you have all the potentials, all the attributes of the Divine in your divine nature. As you walk part of the time in one you can be aspiring to the other until finally you dwell only in the higher nature. That was the simplicity of what Jesus gave: to put down self, that you could live in your eternal nature--toj put down the ego, that the higher being could rise up--that which has been sleeping. This is what the Master demonstrated with Lazarus. He said, "He shall not die. This is not a true illness; this: is something unto the glory of the Lord." Lazarus was in 4 sleep state--in a coma, dormant--and Jesus knew that he would remain thus until he got there. He called him forth to show that the dormant spirit could come forth, be resurrected from that sleeping state. This that he gave while yet on Earth, before he went on to the greater parallel of his own resurrection, was an example of the resurrection to take place in each one. He showed that one could appear to be dead and still come forth and live in the Spirit of God.

He now calls you forth. Arise and walk! ye that are born of the Christ, ye that are the holy temple begotten of the Father in His likeness, ye that are destined to come into the perfect state of being. The time is at hand for you to recognize this and stand up in the Christ nature. Put aside the idea that this is presumptuous. Jesus, your Lord, has gone before you. He shall rule in the hearts of all. You have the nature (by the same Father) and are to grow into that by recognizing the Christ mantle*’on your shoulders. This transforms you, for then you are love, you are mercy, compassion, light, when you Z realize who you are. This great law was shown in so many ways, repeated over and over. You (the soul) have been dormant, have been imprisoned, have been sleeping. Your soul was promised freedom from bondage; you were to be brought forth to be your own, for you were created by the Father, with your own heritage, your own rights. Be not deceived by the one who refused God's will. The human nature is to drop away; you cannot live in two natures or serve two masters. You say you have chosen: then become that which you chose. You are growing up in it, are being raised up in it; then become that. Be ye perfect, as your Father in Heaven. This is not as you measure perfection; it is fulfilment, coming into the maturity of that for which you were designed. You. have mistakenly tried to make yourself that; you already are that in reality. “erGn Remind yourselves to put down the old ways and the old nature. Turn loose of them, stop craving them, stop feeling insecure without them. They give you no security. Put down the old natures; grow limp and prostrate before God. In your weakness His strength shall rise up in you, and you shall be the son of God manifesting according to the Plan. It is He that shall do it. You give consent and then let go of that to which you are holding. That is the key. As the contrast becomes greater you begin to see that the beliefs of the mortal mind are of the human nature. In reality this is the monster that has kept you from your God. This monster rises out of the sea of consciousness and takes you over because you are still allowing it to gain the ascendancy, It has no power over you and shall fade away once you have seen through the mirage, once you have seen it as unreality. Be alert so that you know the difference. Above all else, pray for discernment. That is the key to what Jesus said.

You pass over this so lightly, this separation of reality from unreality. Allow the sword of the Christ in yeu to sever forever that false nature, just as ycu would take off a mask at a masquerade. Through your desire you are coming closer to this understanding of reality. Hold on, in faith, until you literally fallin. You fell out before.. Fall into reality through the acceptance of that which your Lord gave you when he promised you the fullness ef abundant life. Be alert and cut out the strong will of the human nature, the obstinate one that insists on its own way. This is the human nature. The positive and steadfast direction of the soul shall be strong and forceful, but with divine love of the divine nature--selfless, impersonal. Reach upward for the impersonal life, that you rise above personalities, egos that interfere, that hold you earthbound. Rise up into the Light, that you be purified as you move through the firey furnaces The soul then comes forth because being of Light it is refined through the process and is not destroyed by it.

Read more the words your Master gave unto his disciples, slowly letting their reality sink into your souls. This will be your entrance into Paradise, and from there on into greater, greater life. Open to the realization of that which Jesus left with you--the demonstration of the law in him, around him, and through him--and his assurance that the same was in you. How can you possibly doubt it? And how can you think that all this would be manifested in one small incarnation upon Earth?

It has been growing from the seed planted long ago--from the breath of life--and that which was restored to power, literally released in the blood of Jesus. Energies, creative powers went forth into the atmosphere of the Earth, restored souls to their new realm, new life, and have been feeding energies ever since. The souls were being brought together again as one great body, under the direction of the Lord of Earth, to fulfill the Creator's plan. The Father became the son, the son became man on Earth, the Word became flesh. The crucified one went into the lower realms, into Beelzebub's realm, that of darkness, all the way through to the lowest. Light and energy entered into the very center of the Earth and opened the way. Those who were ready then, and accepted, were led out into Paradise of the fourth dimension, awaiting the rest who were to be gathered in, all who want to move into that higher, eternal state--all those who followed their Lord.

All the begotten having that divine principle within were to be called out from the world, gathered together to accomplish that which the Father in them would accomplish before the end of the age, thus moving into the next,the thousand-year millennium of light and peace, where there is no deception. Remove deception and you have reality; remove hate and you have nothing but love and constructive building. Follow the Christ within, follow the greater that went before, the Christ who became the Lord of Earth, becoming father unto you. In following the one who goes before, you become like him and you begin the greater magnification, reproducing like kind.

You are of your Father's nature, but you cannot have two fathers or two masters. You disclaim one and claim the other whom you desire to be like. Thus the law cannot but be fulfilled, and the Plan of God comes forth, This is your assurance, your hope and expectancy. Expectancy shall quicken you and lead you into that which you anticipate, which in turn shall become reality jn your consciousness. It is reality, but your consciousness has not yet opened, expanded to accept this. Let it expand mores; open your eyes. Do not have a closed mind so that you are blind to the truth and narrow minded, mortal mindede God is in you--expanding consciousness--that you walk the way the Lord has provided for yous. There is no other way, for he is the Lord of Earth, and you are to follow in the principle of the law in which you were begotten.

It is not a matter of whose teachings you accept; it is a matter of the God in you unfolding and coming forth, returning that begotten unto the Begetter. In the fulfilment of that you become perfect, as your Father in J Heaven (in you) is perfect, This is the Plan matured--those begotten in His image coming into a perfected likeness. You have no other choice if you desire to follow, and because in the past you had already chosen, your Lord then chose you, called you out becatise you were ones bearing some fruit. You were beginning to flower, as the fruit trees in early spring were beginning to show signs of bearing fruit. You had not withered away.

Thus He called you out of the world to continue in His purpose and Plan, that you not be contaminated by the deception of the world kingdom, for you are not your own, But you need not be conceited about this. You are your Father's; He shall make you perfect in His plan. Be thankful, and in praise and thanksgiving enter ye through the gates. Turn within, in the spiritual centers of your being--the solar plexus, the heart, the soul. Rejoice!

Give thanks in your hearts. Know that God is within you and you are in Him.

The temple is filled with His light and love. Power radisetes from the door of } the temple (the solar plexus) again, and when you have surrendered unto the will of the Creator, He directs that which goes forth.

It is gradually dawning upon your consciousness, so be thankful for the repetition. We shall not leave you until you come into the fullness of the Father's abundant life for you. In love, we walk with you, help lift you out of the human nature to emerge and expand as a free soul of divine nature-- glories that you have forgotten but will enter into once mores Then shall you remember the words your Lord left with you, shall see how merciful he was as he prepared everything possible for you before he left the Earth. He did this so that you would have it in your heart, so you would know that he would make the contact in Spirit and you would hear. p

Soon he is to come in the glorified flesh to receive his own, so ( it is no wonder that he is to come in the clouds (as he went) with his hosts who have been serving and ministering unto the children of Light. In love, we identified ourselves with our channel, without startling her, letting her know that the Plan was going forward, and that there were those already near at hand to help fulfill this. It came to a soul, simple in trust and love, who believes that the Lord will indeed lead the way oute It is to the meek that we comee

Again your Master is in your midst. His love is lifting you into the higher realities, that you experience and know the truth, that you become accustomed to His presence. Then you shall know when he gives the call in the heavens that you rise up to meet him according to plan. Yes, you are being prepared.

I have chosen you. Walk in faith until the greater call comes. It shall be done according to the Plan of my Father in Heaven. Ye shall’ be one with me in realization.

We have seen the glory of our Lord, and it becomes greater each time. Let your faith be increased, that you rise up to meet him in reality. Come out of the dream, awaken from your slumber. Know the truth and it shall set you free. Many are with you. Selah.

So be it! Send forth the light in the name of the Christ, that it go forth exceedingly well. Selah.
