The Second Coming of
Christ
"Then if any man shall
say unto you, "Lo, here is Christ", or there; believe it not. For
there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall show
great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they
shall deceive the very elect. Behold, I have told you before.
Wherefore if they shall say unto you, "Behold, he is in the desert";
go not forth: "behold, he is in the secret chambers"; believe it
not. For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even
unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be." -
Matthew 24:23-27
For, He shall come as
ye have seen Him go, in the Body He occupied in Galilee. The body
that He formed, that was crucified on the cross, that rose from the
tomb, that walked by the sea, that appeared to Simon, that appeared
to Philip, that appeared to John.
He Will Return
Again
Again we find individuals raised in certain sections for specific
purposes. As the cycle has gone about, time and again has there
arisen in the earth those that Manifested these forces in a more
magnificent, more beneficent, way and manner. And, as has been
given, again the time draws near when there shall be seen and known
among men, in many places, the manifestations of such forces in the
material world; for "As ye have seen him go, so will He return
again."
Be thou faithful
unto those words He has given while yet with you. He that shall be
abased and remains true shall wear the Crown of Life? Does it become
unreasonable, then, that ye are being chastised for that which has
been builded within the material forces of the body itself, that
must be tried so as by fire? for the chaff must be burned out! Even
as with the use of those sources of information, the abilities to
become a portion of those elements that were the creative forces Of
the compounds or elements within the universal forces, at that
period brought about those forces that made for destruction of the
land itself, in the attempt to draw that as was in man then back To
the knowledge; and these brought about those destructive forces
(that are known today) in gases, with that called the death ray,
that brought from the bowels of the earth itself - when turned into
the sources of supply - those destructions to portions of the land.
Man has ever (even as then) when in distress, either mental,
spiritual Or physical, sought to know his association, his
connection, with the divine forces that brought the worlds into
being. As these are sought, so does the promise hold true - or that
given man from the beginning, "Will ye be my children, I will be thy
God!" "Ye turn your face from me, my face is turned from thee", and
those things ye have builded in thine own endeavour to make manifest
thine own powers bring those certain destructions in the lives of
individuals in the present, even as in those first experiences with
the use of those powers that are so tabu by the worldly-wise, that
are looked upon as old men's tales and women's fables; yet in the
strength of such forces do Worlds come into being! This is what
psychic force, and so called occult science, Did mean, Has meant,
Does mean in the world today.
The Dawn of a New
Era
The needs of the world for the new message, which is in keeping with
the needs in the present - as then. There was the looking forward to
the coming of the Messiah.
Today there is the looking forward to the coming of the Prince of
Peace, the New Era.
When Jesus the
Christ comes the second time, will He set up His Kingdom on earth
and will it be an everlasting kingdom?
"Read His promises in that ye have written of His words, even as I
(John) gave.
He shall rule for a thousand years.
Then shall Satan be loosed again for a season."
The Preparation
First, study to show thyself approved unto thy consciousness of the
indwelling of God in Christ in thee; rightly divining (and dividing)
the words of truth, putting proper evaluation upon the experiences
in the activities of individuals and groups; keeping self unspotted
from that which ye would question in another.
Minister to those in many places; gentleness, kindness, patience.
For in patience ye become aware of thy relationship to Patience as
shown by thy Saviour, with a world that might have been eradicated
by only a word - yet He wept, rather than found fault.
Do thou likewise. Weep with those that weep; rejoice with those that
do rejoice; for in humbleness, in patience, ye may find thy true
relationship to thy fellow man; and in thy ministry to thy brethren,
to thy neighbours, yea to thy enemies, ye show forth thy concept, ye
show forth the love ye have of thy Lord till He comes again!
In the Lord's house
are many mansions. In thy mind and heart are many possibilities,
many opportunities. Lose not a single one to make known the love
that the Master has for the children of men. For He, too, was one of
them. So in thy ways of grace and mercy, show forth the Lord's
death, the Lord's life, the Lord's love, until He comes again.
Pray ye that the Lord of the harvest find ye not idle but up and
doing, with a might, that thy mind, thy heart, thy hands find to do.
For the Lord will not always tarry. For He will come as a thief in
the night. Are ye ready for His coming? Hath ye fulfilled that as
has been purposed in self to do? Why tarry ye in the waitings -
tomorrow - tomorrow - tomorrow?
Let thy heart, thy mind, be comforted. For the Lord is in His holy
temple, and is merciful to those that show mercy; patient with those
that show patience.
It is never too late to mend thy ways
For life is eternal and ye are today what ye are because of what ye
have been.
For ye are the co-creator with thy Maker, that ye may one day be
present with all of those who love His coming.
The Resurrection
of Christ
Why did Jesus say, "Touch me not," when He first appeared to Mary
after the resurrection?
For the vibrations to which the glorified body was raised would have
been the same as a physical body touching a high power current. Why
do you say not touch the wire?
If ye are in accord, or not in touch with the earth, it doesn't
harm; otherwise, it's too bad!
The
white horse and rider in Revelation 19
This is
the Christ in that it, as the horse, in the experiences of the
awakening is the symbol of the messenger; and this is Christ, Jesus,
the messenger.
The first and second resurrections
The first is of those who have not tasted death in the sense of the
dread of same. The second is of those who have Gained the understanding that in Him there Is no death.
The meaning of one thousand years that Satan is bound
Is banished. That, as there are the activities of
the forty and four thousand - in the same manner that the prayer of ten just should save a city, the deeds, the prayers of the faithful will allow that period when the incarnation of
those only that are in the Lord shall rule the earth, and the period is as a thousand years.
Thus is Satan bound, thus is Satan banished from the earth. The desire to do evil is only of him. And when there are - as the symbols - those only whose desire and purpose of their heart is to glorify the Father, these will be those periods when this shall come to pass.
Be Ye All Determined within thy minds, thy hearts, thy purposes, to be of that number!
Purifying of the Body
Through
the purifying of the body in thought, in act, in certainty, it may
make for a peoples, a state, a nation, that may indeed herald the
coming of the Lord.
