Blessings be unto you, beloveds. We have lifted you into attunement so that you all be as one in higher consciousness. We shall strengthen and replenish the channel as we proceed. There has been great concentration of power, energies moving through which put a strain upon the physical body, because it is of a greater concentration than previously. The body will become better conditioned to stepping into further dimensions, for the soul is being led into far greater light than at earlier times. Thus it is God's mercy that develops a soul to go out to meet the frequencies of Light, rather than have those from other realms go into lower vibrations, There is a meeting place, a meeting point, but at the same time the soul must reach out in development and expansion of its own-- that of the Christ nature within. This makes the contrast even greater, more painful in the third dimension when the soul returns, but it is part of the developing and unfolding of a. soul being brought into the higher nature and finally sustained in its eternal state.

Each of you will experience more as you develop further. Many times this seems to bring difficulties on the Earth plane. This is part of the price one pays, part of the sacrifice that love and desire will bring as the soul moves through in fulfillment. But love lifts and one finally becomes stable and is sustained in the higher nature--that body which shall be invulnerable when all is accomplished. Just as the physical body stands up under many tests and strains, so must the soul-body. That which was read previously is exactly the realization that you must come into: that the foundation was laid by the Father sending you forth, begetting of His nature. This, the "begotten son", is the Christ nature of God. So realize the foundation is there, the Divine Mind is in you. Then build upon that foundation.

If your desire is truly the fulfillment of God's plan for that which He sent forth, then it shall be done. If your desires are for human selfexpression through the mortal mind, or the animal or emotional natures, then you shall move in that direction. You have choice, but the motives that stem from your heart, the desires from deep within--your true desires--these are the ones that shall open the gates. As long as you have that in your heart you may expect fulfillment, Love your God with body, mind and soul--every part of your being--and you will be filled with God's love.

God's love builds, and it lifts the powers and energies that are the creative force of God--yours to use under His direction. The atoms of energy are there; the pattern, the blueprint is theres God's power is in you if you claim it. It does no good to store away treasures and never use them. You have all the treasures of Creation in the sanctuary within you. Think of it, realize it; then come together and ponder over that which the Lord has given, The creative forces of Divine Energy are shared with you. You are created from them and have access to the storehouse for a never-ending supply.

If you come into alignment with God's will and open into the Light, He shall reveal to your consciousness greater truths, greater concepts, greater parts of His plen than you Imow. There is the power that will bring this into fulfillment. The God-power is a feeder-line to you and you may distribute it, use it and direct it wheresoever you will. But woe unto one who directs it

through human selfishness with ulterior motives! But as you who have desired tho way of your Lord go forward with greater expectancy, the capacity to receive expands. There is great energy flowing through each one that will open and let God fill the temple and all the cells within--over two-billion cells of intelligence in the temple called "you",

What an amazing revelation! You are sons of God also, as well as the Master Jesus who went before and became the head of the great host of sons. He overcame the Earth and opened the door to let them come through his consciousness which had reached fullness. Enter with him and you are partakers: sons of God coming into the fulfillment of maturity and the development of that which God's plan will reveal, All His supplies of energies, the energies of Light, the spiritual food which you were told to eat in the Paradise State are once again being given unto your soul bodies. These are the fruits of the Spirit, building blocks of Creation. You have them in your hand, in your heart, in your soul, In your human self you have no wisdom to use them, so it was merciful that there was &@ cut-off, that you could not steal and use them for self-centered gain. Now you know to reorient around your God-center. Turn within to that center.

God has given you the direction of Jesus, the Christ. As you are one with him in consciousness, he becomes your direction, That was the meaning of the great law of “Love one another". As you love, you expand, you open and unite with one another in soul rapport, blending and fusinge And you literally become one body of consciousness, one body of love, forgetting your separate human selves. Souls in the Light are not afraid of moving into oneness. There is nothing to fear in God, there is nothing to fear in uniting in love with your neighbor. But this is apart from becoming involved with each other humanly. Then there is a clashing of wills, clashing of habits and personalities--chaos ?

You are to rise above that just as you did here: many coming together from different backgrounds, different religions, or church groups, different standards of living. Yet you obeyed the Spirit, came together and merged as one. In love you united and in harmony you have functioned. This was rising above to a degree, transcending certain things, rising above the human selfishness or the human ways or personalities or differences. You did not come to argue over the differences among you (which are many); you came together to focus upon the highest goal and to merge in the Christ consciousness, coming together as one body of love for God's service and purpose. Thus you md harmony and the loving Spirit. Each felt that he was part of the other--a blending of the souls in Christ love that made you want to come together as one in His name.

A loving spirit offered unto the Father can bring forth, through the spirit within, great works, great fruits when self is forgotten. There is a struggle, a floundering sometimes, and when this is so the love of each one can lift and sustain the other, because each knows what the other is going through. ‘hen one is sinking for the moment, or is in distress--needing more love, more help, more sustaining--each of the others will feel it as though it is hurting them, because they are one and must all be at peace for each one to meet the highest attainment. One cannot be joyful until all that are in the oneness are sustained in that same spirit and joy.

Those of the “outside”, we would say, have the choice at any time to enter into the oneness with those who have chosen the Kingdom; no one would leave them out. Many come near and draw away; they cannot meet the conditions of the higher Spirit, the power of the Light, the Love and of the union of all in One, When they are not ready for this they depart from it. There must bo a giving up of self, a giving up of former ways, and all must be oriented if they are to come into a group such as this. This is an example; there will be more

It took place here. Sone oug you into one body of love and Christ consciousness, in hours of oving meditation and prayer.

All who would enter are welcome, but if they cannot leave self out and fuse with other souls as one spirit, then it is not for God's purpose and would defeat it if allowed, So the Spirit draws those away who cannot lose Sight of self-will and set ways enough to enter His kingdom with His disciples through the Christ consciousness, This is the key to the way the Kingdom is being built. You are as one, and because you have been feeding on spiritual food you are expanding, growing. You practice this just as you would practice baking bread--one loaf and then another, and another, and another. These loaves shall feed many; you are the leavening that brings about the lifting.

Greater love hath no man than that he put aside self for his brother or for the Christ, Love shall lift to the heights. If done in the name of the Christ, the greater the sacrifice the greater the reward. Nevertheless, it is not done for that, but to glorify the Father, that His Kingdom be established, His plan be brought forth. You are the builders in this, you are the temple, you are the trustees of the temples. Some of you are the trustees of this phase of the Christ work, It must be preserved and continued in greater expansion in the same purity with which it has previously been carried forth.

In the past man has taken every revelation and put an organization around it, and he has interpreted and brought forth (according to the human mind) that which was revealed to a soul by Spirit. Thus distortions and deceit and discrepancies crept in. Each channel down the line has tried to bring forth from pure revelation--concepts and understandings--and yet his followers would organize or misinterpret or commercialize.

God moves through those who offer themselves, who trust, have faith in Him and are obedient to His way and His will. Then all truths, all light that come into the soul must be guarded well, Many prophets have come and gone; some remain true to the goal, to the Christ purpose, but these are few. You are being raised to be channels and workers for the Father in His vineyard. You will be part of the Kingdom and will work under Christ's direction as you, in your Christ nature, are attuned to your Lord of Earth and his purpose. As you expect him remember that he promised that his spirit would be poured out over the Earth, and now indeed it is. Many have failed to believe that he will return as he went--in the clouds, and from the skies unto the Earth. He will return in his glorified body, that which is incorruptible. Yours shall be raised up to be like his. Have faith in this, for it is a promise of your Lord who fulfills his promises. Ileet the conditions by desiring God's will above all else. Watch that you do not deceive yourselves in the small things which you believe are for God, yet which are only human. Do not try to justify discrepancies as they are revealed by the greater light of the Spirit working in you, and the cosmic sun.

eee all your inner motives. Can you stand the Light?

You are being refined as you pass through . more ight. God, in His mercy, does not give it all at once; that is why you must be patient. In your impatience you would like to drive ahead, but i not only lack the wisdom, you do not know the plan. Therefore, trust your ig and this shall increase your patience, for you are being conditioned gradually. e does not give you more than you can bear at once. At each point along the way, you do not know how much you can bear, put God does. Infinite intelligence, infinite wisdom shall feed you with the power according to your capacity. It does not always mean that you will meet it properly, but you will if you hold true to the integrity and motives of the soul and the desire which you have expressed. Know that you have the capacity for this. God will bring you into alignment; do not fret, do not worry but let your motives be honest and pure. Your sincere desires shall not be for the gratificaI tion of self but for the fulfillment and the satisfaction of the soul, in order H to glorify the Father. Because you are part of the Harvest you can trust God to , keep His word. Remember to keep yours, reminding and disciplining yourselves, bringing under control your emotions and thoughts, your reactions. This is important, but let it not be with great strain or human effort; let it be as you sit in stillness and gather strength from within. Then ( you will recognize certain areas that you must control. Give them unto God that as they come in line with His plan. Thus you deliberately go about guarding and guiding that area, put without strain, Strain and worry defeat the purpose. Out of your struggles comes growth, but when you learn more of God's ways, you will be quiet within as you approach your problemse Then there will not be bodily tensions that distract, nor human weariness; the physical will not then get in the way, as is usual with human beings. The Christ nature in you will use the temple in quietness, and confidence and strength shall comee Remember this. This has been. preserved in your Holy Writings down through the agesSe

With body, mind and soul at ease, you shall have divine confidence (which is faith), assurance that God is with you, and the knowledge that the Christ nature is one with the Father and that you are of the Christ nature. In the stillness your faith is increased and divine strength comes. Then there is replenishment, feeding, nourishment, power. This is God's holy power, in the temple, waiting to come forth when you come to the full realization of the Christ in you and you take authority. In your Christ nature you shall command His power and direct it, for in that Christ nature you are one with the will of the Father. Therefore the Father directs you, but it is you claiming that for which He created you. Wo longer shall you hold back.

Visualize the beautiful rosebud. Imagine that its consciousness had deceived it and that it believed itself to be a thorn or a weed, thus holding back the bud from opening. In higher consciousness one would look upon it in love and say to it, "Come forth into full blooms be the beautiful rose that you are. Cast out the erroneous thoughts which tell you that you are a weed rather than a rosee Banish those false ideas! Come forth into flowering, into the beautiful rose, fragrant, vibrant with life and color. Be beauty unto the eyes of the beholder." :

Page 195

You have been deceived by your human perspective. Your humanity is nothing in itself. Come out of that false concept, turn loose selfish motives, know your beautiful soul unfolding in the Christ nature so that it not be held back longer. Release it to reach its destiny, Then marvelous things shall the Spirit of God do through spiritual man begotten of the Father. You must claim this and move into it. This is your heritage. You have been living under deception. In thanksgiving and love, open and flower; step forth in the Christ nature and accept the gift of the Father--the Divine nature in you. Consciously guard the temple well. Let power flow into it so that it not be a temple unusede

Your realization of your Christ nature is the “capstone”, the finishing, The Father doeth the works through the Christ nature of His begotten. This is the message of your Lord. He directed eyes not only unto him but to the Father demonstrating through him, This was to show you a reflection of yourselves, in your true natures. That begotten of the Father must, of necessity be of Divine Nature. Accept this, believe it, and in gratitude and love open, flower into the fullness of God's Life.

His Spirit shall manifest in many, many ways, through His Life, in the vessel that He sent forth with the gift of freewill. But give up your will, that the Father's will be accomplished in you. The foundation is laid; it is there. Of this have no doubt. Consciously come in line with this and know your identity; have faith in the Power that moves that identity. Then shall you be ready for the change “in the twinkling of an eye", and all will fall into place with perfect synchronization. The angels shall rejoice and your Lord shall come to receive the host that finally came into realization of the great law of the Father--One in Christ, One in that nature through love, One with the Father.

The Father doeth the works through the son.

Bless yous. Bless you, beloveds. Your Lord is leading each one into this fulfillment, That is his mission. Learn to experience and feel his presence and it will help sustain you. This is part of the Great Change when Heaven shall be on Earth. In the presence of your Master, experience oneness, in love and thanksgiving with him.

None come unto me, save the Father send them. I come; my own shall know mee Feed my sheep!
