       I AM THE WAY                           Â
                                              Â
  By: Dr. Wesley A. Swift   Â
                                         2-19-61
We are speaking this afternoon on
the subject taken from the words ofÂ
Jesus ...I Am the Way.   There
is probably among the important things men should know, nothing that should be of more significance to us
than...that we should understand our
relationship to the great plan of God as to why we are here, how we are to accomplish the objectives which He has in
store for His Kingdom, for you can be
sure these objectives will be accomplished. Also to realize our relationship
both to God, and to His purpose for as we have a similitude between ourselves
and God to understand..it is most significant we realize these things.   We turn to these words of Jesus in the 14th., chapter of John
in which Jesus makes this statement:...'I
AM THE WAY, THE TRUTH, AND THE LIFE.' AndÂ
then He makes this statement:..'No man can come unto the father but by
me.'Â It is most important for us to
understand this strange and enigmatic condition of God not only dwelling among
men, but of the fullness of YAHWEH, GodÂ
dwelling among men. This is one of the reasons why today there is a lot
of disturbance among men and among men
of theology. This disturbance is due toÂ
the fact that men don't understand God, even tho they may be His
children. Still in this enclosure of
flesh, this dwelling here in physical bodies,Â
and being subject to instructions, and to the teachings of their
individual churches, and in this
instance a great number of Clergy even..are blind..to the very nature of God, to the structure of God, and to how He
exists, and how He consists. Because of
this as they have translated the King JamesÂ
Version of the Bible, and as men have studied it they have become
confused as to the very nature of
God...as embodied He walked among men.  Â
    Â
When Jesus said:..'I AM THE WAY,
THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE, AND NO ONE CANÂ
APPROACH THE GREAT CREATIVE SPIRIT WHICH FILLS ALL THINGS, EXCEPT HE
COMEÂ UNTO ME, FOR I AM THE WAY.' Then
people didn't understand that, and theyÂ
didn't even know how to translate it. The fact is still sustained because if we turn to the Book of Colossians the
Apostle Paul had learned something by
experience. He had been carried into the heavens and been introduced thru a revelation concerning the Universe,
and all that it consisted of, and all
that was in it. He had been told things which his Epistles would later contain. He had been told, and he
wrote concerning Christ:...'All things
were made by HIM.' He was talking about Christ Jesus, he was talking about His person, he was talking about the
Deity of whom the Universe is utterly
dependent, and by whom it had been made.  Â
So we listen to these words:..'For
by HIM were all things created that are
in the heavens, and in the earth. Visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities,
or powers: all things were created by
HIM, and for HIM.' He was before all things, and by Him all things consist. He is the head of the
body..the church, who is the beginning, the first born from the dead...or the
first resurrected out of the inner-earth
forces coming with the spiritual life power within. And of His own power, indwelling, without any other
assistance...first born of the dead, as
in all things He might have pre‑eminence. For it pleaseth the flowing creative spirit...Agra‑Pneumas...Father
of all substance, of all things which
exist. That in this body, the man Christ Jesus, the fullness of this Deity would dwell.  Â
You see even when they translated
Colossians the Ecclesiastical interpreters were faced with tremendous
statements, but they were trying to balance it with ideas which they already
had. Now: the Apostle Paul had made a
tremendous statement and they couldn't quite translate it away, and their intent was not necessarily to translate any
truth away. It was the fact that they
could not at that time contain truth in which they had no background in the fullness
of it...to understand. They had heard many, many times the words repeated to Israel:...'The LORD thy God is One
LORD.'Â Â Â They knew and understood that
there was only one supreme and mightÂ
being, and they knew that they were His offspring. This particular
prayer which Jesus taught as He
said:...When you pray then pray in this manner:Â 'Our father which art in heaven, hallowed be thy name.' In some
translations it is:...'Our father who dwelleth in planes of Spirit..hallowed
by thy name.' And they used the Eternal
name ...YAHWEH.. the name above allÂ
names. But the fact is that as they prayed they were so taken with the
promise of yesterday which said that:..Emmanuel would dwell among us. A virgin would conceive and bear a child and his name
would be called Immanuel meaning God
with us...and when they conceived these promises to which related to Jesus,
they saw Him therefore as the offspring of God. And when they saw Him thus then their concept now was
that God had a son, and the son was
distinct and apart from the father. Â Â Â
Now:...they had 2 people in their theology, and then in time thru the
ecclesiastical structure because of the
Holy Spirit of God which is a great dynamic energy of force of His creative being, moving out of the Universe then
they had this Holy Spirit to contend
with...as a separate being. Even tho in their interpretation as Jesus talked to His disciples He made it
quite clear that it was expedient that
He go away, but that He would not leave them alone. He said: He would send upon them the spirit of truth that the
world could not receive. TheÂ
word..Paraclete..means the creative conscious spirit of Deity. And He
was to send this, but they translated
this as comforter, and said:...now thisÂ
is someone else. So they translated...I and the Father will come unto
you ...but Jesus said:...the fullness
of the Father..the great spirit will comeÂ
unto you. If you will go back and take your lexicon you will see what
it says:...Jesus didn't say...I and the
father are going to come to you, twoÂ
people, but He introduced the fact that when the Holy Spirit came it
was ...THE FATHER. And it was the
manifestation of Deity, the fullness of itÂ
which was dwelling in His being.  Â
When we say we are the children of
God we mean that we as the children of
God were begotten by His Spirit before the world was framed. The tremendous
phenomena of this being begotten by His Spirit before the world was framed is as the Apostle Paul tells us:...we
are His children, because we were
begotten of His Spirit, thus we are the children of God. Therefore we are joint heirs in our earthly inhabitation
with the very embodiment of God. That
is one of the reasons why that the Book of Colossians contains these very passages...deep passages. People
many times become the absoluteÂ
followers of the letter of the translations. And the translations may
be the best these men can deliver with
the knowledge and the opinions thatÂ
they had. One of the most important things which we face with theology
today is that the sheer essence of God's Truth must make a vast Mosaic of Truth which is uncontradicted. But opinions
when translated into theology in many
instances shade that until it is hard to understand.   When we recognize that the Almighty God came to earth in the
flesh, and dwelt in the flesh, among
men, and that the fullness of God dwelt in this Man Christ Jesus bodily, then no man could ever approach unto the
Father except he came during the period
of The Christ's life, because the fullnessÂ
of God was here.  Â
In His humanity He was brother to
every man of the Adamic Household.Â
Every man of the Adamic race which had been begotten out of the
Household of Adam...because He took
upon Himself a body just like you had. TheÂ
Apostle Paul in the Book of Hebrews spent so much time trying in the
second chapter to make you understand
that physically God became your Kinsman. HeÂ
became your kinsman since all the children of God by this course of
their entrance into the world, in their
mission of building God's Kingdom wereÂ
dwelling in bodies of flesh. Therefore God, Himself, took upon Himself
a body of the same, and when He came
into this earth..by the process which is birth, then He emerged...INCARNATE
DEITY. In otherwords Incarnate..clothed with flesh.      Â
Now:...there are certain qualities
that are significant for us to understand. That therefore Christ was making
this very clear and John in hisÂ
writings was making the declaration concerning HIM...that He was the Eternal WORD..the form, the mind, and energy
which held every atom together and by
which the whole Universe was framed. The Apostle Paul declared, this is the constructive Eternal Spirit..Logos in
the Greek. This is the energy, mind‑intelligence
of YAHWEH‑God holding the very purposes of God together, creating, making, this is form and energy.
The Apostle Paul said:..HE was the
WORD, the living WORD, the abiding, creating force. Then more than that John tells us: HE is the Light which Lighted
every man who came into the world.  Â
Now:..I think it is significant
that you understand that there is a difference in this word..Man..both in the
New Testament as it is used as well as
in the Old Testament...there is a distinction. When we say every man who cometh into the world we are talking about
Adam‑man. incidentally this isÂ
'Brotherhood Sunday', so I can make that statement on Brotherhood
Sunday and it disturbs some people. But
the Household of God, the Family of GodÂ
can stand lots of brotherhood...however don't think, my friends, that you can violate the dimensions of Divine Laws of
God or the order of Divine Law to
assume that everyone who walks upright on this earth, from any creation, in any time period, is...your brother. This
of course would not be right. You
wouldn't classify all the creatures that God created as your brothers. You might say that there are around you many
creatures who if they would let you,
that you would become friendly with but they are not your brothers. All of
these many creations are not your brothers because..your brother has to be your
Fathers son. Your brother has to be the offspring of the MOST HIGH, and you are the children of YAHWEH, God, after the
Spirit but before the foundation of the
world. And you are the children of AdamÂ
after the flesh who was the son of God in the earth.   In the Ancient teachings of Enoch and Job
and of the Patriarchs they knew that
Adam was the son of God, and that in Adam was the Life of God, the breath of God, and the Holy Seed. Ezra
knew this, the Prophets realized this.
Their concept was not excluded by your concept that the parables and the symbolism had covered these mysteries.
They personally knew these things, and
only modern theology of today was carried away by the story of the eating of an apple. Actually the
symbolism of the apple was the symbolism of the Life of the Tree of
Life..planted in earth, and it was referredÂ
to under that symbolism by the Ancients, and it meant the Stream..the
race ..the life..and as such was no
disturbing factor. It was the sign of multiplication for there wasn't anything
wrong with people multiplying. WhenÂ
Adam was placed in earth he was to have dominion over earth and to
multiply and help re-populate earth.
But actually God was transferring thru this process, from heaven to earth, this
spiritual seed of God, and it was thru theÂ
medium of this Adamic race that God's Kingdom was to be transferred
from heaven to earth. That is why every
son of Adam on to your time was a son ofÂ
God.        Today we have a fetish around words...and when you cite that
this race of which you are a part has a
spiritual quality and has within it theÂ
Divine Seed, and that God had a purpose in transferring the children from heaven to earth..to build a kingdom..this
was accomplished by the process of
putting them in bodies of flesh..when you say this a lot of people have been caught in the semantics that as you use
the word...son of God...they think that
this is Blaspheme, or replaces the work of Christ whom the think is also just a son of God.  Â
Let me tell you this:...The Man
Christ Jesus dwelling among men was TheÂ
Incarnate YAHWEH..The Everlasting Father walking in your midst. You
say:... can you establish that? Yes...Remember
the words of Isaiah? 'His name shall be
called wonderful, the Almighty God, the Everlasting Father.'Â Â Â Â
Now, you are well aware that from
among the fetish ancients and thruÂ
superstitions came this idea of a multitude of gods, and the family of
god, and the positive and negative...father
and mother principal, and offspringÂ
uniting into a common deity was an old Babylonian theology. And this is
why in some of the intensity of old
Babylonian theology they have given it substance without waging war on an
branch of the Christian Church because theÂ
church continued to absorb some of the Babylonian doctrines. This
which first moved into the church at
Rome has continued down thru the reformationÂ
and protestantism to some extent, and we have words..words which became
a whole foundation of thinking, a whole
pattern of Semantics. The word forÂ
Trinity for instance...we have songs which became enshrined in the
church:......Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God Almighty...God in 3
persons...blessed trinity. Some of you
say:...I was raised on that and you can't take that away from me. I don't want to take it away from you, I just want
you to see the Light.   'Hear O Israel, the LORD thy God is One
LORD'.   God is not 3 persons...if you
want to talk about Omnipresence then GodÂ
is in everyone of you so He is millions of persons. But that is not what
He intended to convey. YAHWEH‑God is Spirit. God in full pattern of His
soul can be embodied as He was in the
Man..Christ Jesus. Spirit, Soul, and BodyÂ
is the phases of the Image of God, and you are also spirit, soul, and
body and you are made in the Image of
God and you are one person.   But when
trinitarian theology out of Babylon is set up the theology concept of the Trinity...is set up as 3
individuals. They have the old man, an
ancient, and he is god. They have a young man, and he is god, and then they have the Holy Spirit which is sort of
an effulgent glowing glory off at one
side, and he also is as the others, a separate personality, and there IS NO TRUTH IN THIS. You say:..what is
that? Because the effulgent Spirit is
the Life energy of God. Because that body was the body of God, because the nature of God and the fullness
of His Spirit has existed in all times.
He never had a beginning, or an end. And that is why they could say of Jesus Christ:... He is the same yesterday,
today and forever. He was before all things,Â
by HIM all things consist.   How could you say that about any man who was
born at any given time? ButÂ
here...embodied in that birth was the fullness of God entering into a
physical body so that He might be just like His kinsmen, for the work He
came to do.   If there is any one great truth today which should have great
importance in your mind to make you
understand your responsibility, and your Destiny, it is for you to know that you are the kinsmen of God. To know
that you are related to HIM, to know that you are not an abstract group
that He created along with other
creations, and that you like them having something which He reached down just to save, to set you on a higher order.
This my friends may sound like a whole
great story to general Evangelism, but IÂ
want you to know that God sent His own Household into the world to
build His Kingdom. You are children of
that Household..kinsmen with God...offspring of the MOST HIGH. When you
understand that then you understand DavidÂ
the Psalmist as he said:...(82)Â Â Â
'Ye are gods and all of you are the children of God.'Â Â Â
Then why do you die like these
other beings who are subject to lawsÂ
which have enveloped them in the catastrophes of endless yesterdays?
You as a people have a great destiny
before you, and Jesus taught you of thisÂ
Destiny as He taught you how to pray, when your kinsmen asked in the
days He walked among you. He taught you
how to pray, but this did not mean thatÂ
He was separate from the fullness of the Spirit. He said when you
pray, then pray in this
manner:......'Our Father which art in planes of Spirit (Heaven) Hallowed be
thy name.' Then He taught you
thus:.....'Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, in earth as it is in heaven'.   The only way this project could be carried
out was to transfer the children of His
Spirit from heaven to earth. The children of His Spirit... to see them increase and multiply in the
same physical world like the elements of creation. And to see them move
forward, to carry forward and toÂ
transform the world as they moved into it with the power of heaven, and
the power of spirit...with the great
creative forces of life and energy, ofÂ
vision, and of Light.  Â
When we talk about the fact that He
is the Light that Lighted every man who
came into the world, we have mentioned how in the Hebrew there are two meanings for the word man...Adam and Enosh.
One means the white man...the Adamites,
and the other means the Enosh or the others round about. But when it is talking about Jesus being the Light of
every man as He came into the world,
then it is talking about the children of His Kingdom.  Â
Do you know what is the Light of
Life? It is the great creative
Divine, vibrant, energy of God Himself.
It is a seed of life deep down in everyÂ
last one of your race...the sheep of His pasture, the seed of His
pasture.   You will note that in the
declarations of the MOST HIGH that He says: 'IÂ
AM THE WAY'. Therefore in what a
son of God does to fulfill his responsibility there is something which Christ
introduces both in his life and living
in his knowledge and wisdom, which is God's knowledge and wisdom transferred to earth as God's life is
transferred to an earthly area. This isÂ
why the Apostle Paul said:...When He came to the land of the inheritance
of the household He had selected...the
occupants of that land received HimÂ
not. But to everyone of the sons of God, for whom He came, He gave power
so that they might live like sons of
God. That they might be re‑empowered,Â
that there might be a restoration to them of everything from whence
they had fallen.'  Â
We hear so much about the fall of
man, but we don't hear nearly as muchÂ
as we ought to about His restoration. IT IS THE RESTORATION WHICH IS THE
 WORK OF GOD. It is the restoration for
which the Atonement was an importantÂ
factor. God Almighty does not want you as a people with less power than sons of God are to possess. He does not want
you as a people to be still carrying a
guilt complex, still finding that as one of the most important factors to ill health, and the great
disturbances which effect yourÂ
society.  Â
You say:...why is that? I will tell you why, because as men think
so they live. And when they stay under
guilt complexes and self condemnation,Â
individual fears, these tensions effect the whole nervous system.
These little imputes of miliamps of
electricity that goes down thru the nervousÂ
system effects every phase of it, both the conscious and subconscious.
The activity of the whole body and the
health of the being is tied to how menÂ
think, and how they react to the way they think. The whole nervous
system responds to the way they think.
That is why we have hypertension andÂ
tension, and the reason we find under these...whole energy vibrations
of all the forces which are struggling
for the world at this time is thatÂ
people are living under greater tension today than at any time in
history. In fact they have even
developed a Medical Science because of being aware of this, for a whole phase of medical science called Psychiatry
has come forth.       Now...we
are not too sympathetic to psychiatry because a great number of Satans own children have taken on this great
phase of thinking, in order to use it
to effect the people who come to them for help. I think some of the craziest people in the world today are
psychiatrists. In fact they all needÂ
more treatments than they can give. But the fact is that there is a
principal that they are working on. They are trying to find what there was in
the background of complexes, fears, and
guilt, or what experiences they mightÂ
have had, shocking or otherwise which had such an effect on people,
whether in childhood or otherwise which
effects their thinking. This process tightens up the whole nervous system, it
creates toxins and poisons and effectsÂ
their lives. In fact we do not know but we think that from the very
beginning that the guilt factor may have had more to do with the life factor
problem than any one thing. That is why one of the most important things
in the mind of God was to lift that
guilt complex off this race. To destroyÂ
forever this guilt complex...HE would do this by the only legal procedure which would absolutely substitute Diet...and
take it away forever from man. The
process of disintegration and death were violations of principal and law, and once upset, were to continue to
reach down thru the ages to carry out
this toll. The Scriptures contain without any question that the violation of
Divine Law in any form has an impact. Thus it is:...THE WAGES OF SIN IS DEATH.  Â
The work of Christ in one of the
things He came to do was always toÂ
remain staggering for men to know. One of the things He came to do was
to lift this guilt complex off of men.
Being YAHWEH‑God, He alone could doÂ
anything in His Universe, consistent with His being. We have mentioned
in the past that the rebellion of
Lucifer, the catastrophe which took place inÂ
the heavens, the isolation of all of the forces of darkness, and all of
the progress of negation in all the
Universe was finally gathered together andÂ
corralled in earth. This earth you live on with the mountains, its
hills, and its oceans, and plains....everything
you have learned to love since you have
been here contains all the opposition to God in the whole Universe. It was all corralled right here on earth.  Â
We can read that the Archangel
Michael and his hosts rounded up all theÂ
rebellious forces of Lucifer in the Universe, the fallen Angels and all
of their hosts, people who were
gathered to Lucifer were in those ships ofÂ
yesterdays. All of them were surrounded and pushed to earth and then:...
God said to the Archangel...Now you stay, this is when I hold you back. Keep them in the earth and don't let them
out, but you can't touch them there.
Even the Great Archangel Michael couldn't bring a railing accusation against Lucifer...but here he was. Thus it
was that the earliest races of earth,
and even some who were brought in under Lucifer's rebellion were subject to he who had captured their mind,
and directed them into error.  Â
Every false religious system, every
pagan power, every catastrophe whichÂ
swept the antediluvian world was the by‑product of forces both
wrong in idea and brought about by the
rebellion of Lucifer, and now concentrated inÂ
earth.   But if you want to see
Grace...then realize that God isolated the earth as it was filled with these things, just as you might isolate a
family who have a contagious disease.
Here it is on the earth, and the Angels lookedÂ
down on this situation. All the Universe looked at this theater for this
is the spectacle of time. And into this
earth with the catastrophe that theÂ
next millenniums produced, the catastrophe, the revolutions, the
violence, the mongrelizations, the
idolatry, the false gods that set themselves up as Deities, and yet this was the world that still demonstrated the
very nature of God. He said:...I
created the Universe, I created everything in it. IÂ created Lucifer and I knew exactly what he would do, but I also
knew that there would come great value
out of all this. But I have now isolated thisÂ
in earth, and the whole Universe can now look at earth as a spectacle
and see what is going on in this world.
But now....WE ARE GOING TO REDEEM IT.  Â
You say:...But why do this? Do you
know that no one would have appreciated GRACE. No one would have appreciated
Righteousness, no one in the Universe
could have appreciated it until they had something to compare it with, because you only understand by comparison.
No one would, My Friends, have known
how right righteousness was, and no one would have the standards of Divine principal..ethics, and law and its
value, unless they had some comparison
and could see what results it made, and what catastrophes were made.  Â
Someone said:..but we see what it
did to the whole Universe. It didn't do
that to the whole Universe, but of course this part of the Universe is inter‑related to other parts of it,
but when you get down to it, thisÂ
little Solar System where you are is just a little grain of sand in
the vastness of God's Great Universe.
But it was also the educational center ofÂ
the Universe, to discover why wrong, why violations of God's law is
what sin is constructed of. These
Divine laws are the way things are put together. They are the way things are
made. Violating any process of this lawÂ
brings you destruction. So it is that into this whole structure then
God says:...NOW, I am going to redeem
it. Now we are going to pour Light andÂ
Righteousness and the concept in tune with, into this situation. Now we
are going to pour the spirit of my
children into it. We are going to put themÂ
in earth and watch them grow and develop..MY KINGDOM..in the midst of
all this completely evil center in the
Universe.   Remember that He
said:..'Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool.' This is the one
spot in all the Universe where the testing goes on. It was here that the children of God said:...we can take care of
that. We were the children of God before
which the endless patterns and cycles ofÂ
earth has passed, and we watched the rolling forth of this part of
the Creation. We have the evidence of
this conversation as God talked to JobÂ
and said that we were with Him before all this was formed. And when
the morning stars sang together that
was the Archangel's fulfilling their responsibilities, and the sons of
God..that is you..were all shouting forÂ
joy. And then the day came when you were sent down here to put things
in the right order. The Kingdom of God
was put into the world to bring orderÂ
and put things right, to meet all of these problems. To do that it
required Divine nature. It was
definitely going to require Divine nature to redeem a fallen world, and that is why He sent children of His own Spirit
to do the work. And He told you also
that you were going to fall...in the sameÂ
pattern that the other nations fell. You were going to surrender your
Glory and your power, and your impact
in your first contact with these forces ofÂ
evil. But He assured you:...I am going to redeem you, and restore you,
and I have already declared a Destiny
for each and everyone of you. FurthermoreÂ
you are going to conform to my own Image as I would be...embodied in
the earth. You are going to be
developed with Glory..with Wisdom..with knowledge, and with power, and you are
going to put the world in order.   Now...that is a big order, but that is your
Destiny.   I think it most significant
then that in the whole course of prophecyÂ
and its History and development that man started to fulfill this
Destiny. Adam‑man followed the
events in which God was continually pouring in the necessary elements to fulfill this Destiny. But the most
important element was when God Himself
became embodied in your own midst to fulfill the promises He made before He
permitted you to come here. That is why...when your name was written in the Lambs Book of Life, before the foundation
of the world, that He told you that He
would also be your Savior and Redeemer inÂ
the earth...and this was before the foundation of the world order too.
So see how far back in the plans and
purposes that you go? It just shows youÂ
how far back you as an individual in spirit go...and your embodiment
in earth is a part of that as well. I
think it is significant therefore thatÂ
to bring this fact to human consciousness is important, for man now
embodied in earth...man now dwelling with his brethren embodied in earth has
been subjected to a catastrophe which
did something to his remembrance. It lostÂ
for him great spiritual guidance which he once had, but which God
promised him to restore. That spiritual
knowledge, that Light, which is the Light ofÂ
men must be restored.   He
said:...'I am the Life which Lighteth every man which came into the world.' But he has to see it shine, he has
to know it. This comes forth in great
spiritual force, and great vibrant power. Did you know that this Light is knowledge??? It is also vibrant
illumination that shows on theÂ
countenance of individuals as that knowledge becomes purposeful in
practice. Do you know that one of the great elements of that life is the
quality you have within you which is belief?Â
Yes...one of the most importantÂ
factors that you have is to believe God. Do you know that the ability
to believe God is not possessed by
everybody? Do you know that it requires aÂ
wave length deep down within your speaking nature which is in tune
with that of God? A spiritual energy
from that is capable of believing Him andÂ
His Word.   That believing power
is life power that does great things. We might say that believing and knowing become one and the same thing before
you are thru because as you are
transformed from Glory unto Glory even unto His own Image, it is because you know and you believe, and you use this
power. And then the second great wave
length of this Light of God is FAITH. Well,Â
Faith is more than believing, it is the directing of that force to get something done.        There are two things
about God when He dwelt among men:...He not only knew all things, but He knew how to do all things with what He
knew. You say:...how can we do
that? Well! He said:...'I AM THE
WAY.' There is no question about that fact that God dwelling
with us was in all things, allÂ
powerful. There was not a single force of nature round about that was
not under control, for even the winds
and the waves obeyed him. There wasn'tÂ
any disintegration that could take place in the human body, which of
all things becomes the greatest
catastrophe for us. The blindness of eye, theÂ
blindness of men, the lethargy that hits them, or the attack of
disease that hits them or even death as
it went by in the wake of him. All of Â
these things were subject of HIM, for He raised the dead, He opened
the eyes of the blind, He unstopped deaf
ears, and stilled the wind and theÂ
waves. All things obeyed HIM. But the most important thing about this
was that He proved...that altho He was
enclosed in a physical body, able to beÂ
touched with all the infirmities that you are subject to..that still
all the Deity which was resident in His
consciousness was fully active and HeÂ
was fully in command.  Â
You say:...but what was because He
was God. Well He said:..I fathered aÂ
whole race of children like this, and I want them to conform to my
Image. IÂ want them to see, I want them
activated to accomplish this purpose. So theÂ
first thing which is holding them back is this whole creation of their
capacity of destruction, disintegration, sickness, disease, death...all of these things are a result of...their guilt
and its impact upon them. But HeÂ
says:...I am YAHWEH, I will be responsible for this. I will assume,
altho I have violated no law, and I
have created and put together, but I willÂ
assume upon Myself all this guilt. Altho I am the Creator having known
from the beginning and having known the
values, and having known the experienceÂ
this world give the Universe....I have permitted this. I along am
YAHWEH, God can put it back in order, I
alone as God can assume the responsibility as well.    Â
This is one of the reasons why as
at Calvary Christ drank that Cup thatÂ
this was a ceremonial Cup and the symbol of all the error that men
committed. In otherwords God said:...Every error, every violation of law, every sin, every transgression, I will take all
this upon Myself and I will absorb this....every bit of it. You say:..but how could He do this?
Because He is YAHWEH God. And I will
tell you this...the moment He assumed it thenÂ
it was off of you. The moment He assumed it He said:..I have assumed
every error in the whole Universe, the
whole world, thus it was off of everybodyÂ
but they didn't know that.  Â
Then He said:..'The wages of sin is death, therefore I assume that price. Of all the great impact of time and
all the events of history in theÂ
Universe, this was one of the most important. For as Christ the
Incarnate Deity, the fullness of
Heaven, hung at Calvary and paid the price, there was a greater power than the body hanging on that Cross. The
power of Spirit, the very essence of Deity,
and the sheer form of His Will and HisÂ
Mind, and the fullness of the impact of His Nature still would set you
out from all of His creations. That He
had established His kingdom in the earthÂ
thru this race of which you are a part, and then received it by even
going thru an experience that was only
for creatures in mortal planes...death.Â
Altho the fullness of God dwelt bodily on the Man Christ Jesus He had
not retained His immortality. He had
very definitely not enveloped Himself withÂ
a wave length of Light and Glory that would have immunized every atom
of His body, and made His crucifixion
even impossible. He did several timesÂ
demonstrate it, and He showed it to the disciples on the Mount of
transfiguration. They saw the radiation and Glory which had passed off of
Him, or death could not have taken
place. And when they crucified Him and HeÂ
said:...'It is finished', the only thing which was finished was the
responsibility and the accountability that would hang on men for their
error. When He was nailed to the Cross
He didn't nail to the Cross and removeÂ
forever the laws of righteousness, but He took every cursing
condemnation which would be the impact
of violation of this law against the consciousness of man in the seat of his
thinking and took it to the Cross with Him.Â
So the hand writing of every ordinance against you was nailed to His
Cross. Do you know what is the matter
with the theology of today? We have beenÂ
tearing down the ordinances from off the Cross and giving them back
to everybody. Giving them a bigger
guilt complex than they had, and saw we areÂ
trying to get a burden on them, and get them under conviction. Did you
ever hear that expression used? The
evangelist saying:...we have to pray thatÂ
people get under conviction? Well one of the things for which Christ
hung on Calvary for was to get the
guilt complex off of them, to remove theÂ
conviction away from them, to set them free. But to understand what they are free from, to understand the
Great works of God which made this
possible, so that they might carry out their conception and responsibility
without this hypertension of a guilt complex.  Â
When Christ rose from the dead He
came out of the netherworld with allÂ
the power of Spirit and all the energy of being..to raise the body,
and then used that body to break bread
with His disciples, and even to eatÂ
fish. Someone said to me one day...there isn't supposed to be anyÂ
communion. I said:..what is that? He said...because Christ said that as
far as His Kingdom was concerned, its
coming in was geared to the time when HeÂ
would break bread with His disciples again. Therefore they felt that
they shouldn't take communion until
Christ broke bread with His disciples rightÂ
after His resurrection and there would never have been a communion is
their way of thinking...if they were
correct. The Communion was not geared to anyÂ
individual time when He would break bread with His disciples. The
Communion was only a statue which He
gave His disciples to impart life to them andÂ
the church from that time on. 'I
shall not break bread with you againÂ
until I break it with you in my Kingdom' Let me assure you of this,
God broke bread with His disciples, and
He continues to do that. He is alsoÂ
talking about the day when He will again in the earth break bread with
them apart from this continual table
which He set before them.  Â
I think one of the most significant
things we face is that when Christ came
up out of the grave, a price for all transgression was paid, and that they shouldn't hang one condemnation of
guilt, or death on one individual. All
you have to do is start thinking straight..to recognize your relationship with
the Father and let the Light of relief and Faith operate and function because He said:..I give you all
power. All power is given unto me, and
I give all power unto you.  Â
Now:...lets turn to this a moment,
all these things Christ did declareÂ
...'I am the way'...'the truth and the life'. Then He makes the
statement ..'no man can come to me except
this great spirit 'Agra‑Phenuma' which is in me draw him', ..unless this great creative spirit draws him.
Then.... 'IÂ will raise him up in the
last day'. Then He said...'not every man who has learned of this Great Creative Spirit, the father of all the
essence of creation, comes to me. But
verily I say unto thee..He who believeth on me, hath everlasting life.' This is the will of the Spirit which
fills the heavens and the earth (the
father). This is the reason I have been bornÂ
into earth that all that belonged unto the spirit before, has been
given unto me, and this is the will of
YAHWEH‑God, that I should lose absolutely nothing and raise it up at the
last day. This is the will of the
spirit which embodied me in the earth,
that they might have everlasting life, andÂ
I raise him up in the last day.  Â
      Â
Now: I want you to note here that
Jesus said:..'I am the vine, and youÂ
are the branches. The essence of
the spirit and the life in Me is essential for you to carry out what you must
do. For the spirit which is in you is
the spirit in Me. So therefore...I am the vine and you are the branches and if you bear fruit it is because you
abide in Me.' The great Family Tree of
YAHWEH, God from Heaven to earth is the vine with its life and vitality and the very essence of life and spirit that
was in Christ is the life and spirit
which produces fruit on the vine of every individual believer.   Jesus said:..'I am the shepherd of the sheep,
I call my sheep by name. IÂ lead them
out and I give them eternal life and they never perish. But for these sheep to enter into the place where
greater spiritual blessings andÂ
substance, and protection dwell, otherwords, to enter into the sheepfold then Jesus said:...'I am the door. I am not
only the way, but I am the door. I am
the sustaining life.'Â Â Â Some people
say:...why does Christ continually refer to this by saying:Â ...'I am the sustaining life...I am the way,
the truth and the life, I am the
door,.. I am the vine?' Why? Because God wanted a constant knowledge of the relationship of the children of the
Kingdom..to HIM. He wanted an actual
origin..spiritual concept being relationship to HIM that they not only thought as He thought, could vibrate
with knowledge and wisdom as His great
creative spirit operates in the Universe, but they were of the essence of His being transferred
individually into earth. This is why ChristÂ
in you is the Hope of Glory. That is life..illumination..radiance..and power.  Â
The world we have of course is filled with a lot of problems, but
these problems are yours to solve, you
have never found any of the problems solved by the people who are not the
children of God, or by the great westernÂ
nations in your time. You don't find Africa, or Asia, or India
solving their problems, they are just
getting in deeper in, all the time. SomeoneÂ
said:..but Communism is solving their problems. Do you really think so?
The great revolution hit China and it
is worse off than before, they don't haveÂ
enough to eat now. All they have of Soviet Technology was set to work,
and they can't get the ground to
cooperate so they can get enough to eat. TheyÂ
were better off when they were under the feudalistic government they had
in the past, and they had Emperors and
Mandarins and local town Mayors, andÂ
small feudal Kingdoms. But as least they had rice, they raised in
their paddies, and they had a roof over
their heads and they had a family and itÂ
was theirs. So you see they are not solving their problems, they are
going backwards. The process of world
order thinking goes backward..not forwardÂ
to life. If there is life and progress then it comes out of the children
of the Kingdom, from the nations of
God's Kingdom, for there is a plan for theÂ
world.  Â
Suppose I told you that the plan of
God for the world reaches out to aÂ
restoration of every thing in it, to its proper relationship with God.
It calls for an era where people in the
proper balance are serving the rightÂ
God. It calls for an era where people in the proper balance are serving
the right God, acknowledging only His
person, His truth, His life. ThrowingÂ
away of superstitions and darkness, because the Light is shining where
they live. This is the great power of
the Kingdom, and because you are the Kingdom of God in the earth, that Light is
going to reach every corner of thisÂ
earth. And that Light is going to dispel the darkness. There isn't
going to be any shortage of food or
anything else that people need. I want you toÂ
know that the most important thing people need is...Truth..in the seat
of their consciousness, on whatever
level that they have the capacity to thinkÂ
in. That is more important in some ways than the physical level because
if they were in balance in that one
they would have all they need in earth.  Â
When you look out over the world thru the magazines and major
publications, such as 'Look' and 'Life', you take a look at the Congo and you
see the revolution and upheaval they
turned loose to try to show their superiority, and that their equality is that
they wanted to govern themselves. But
you see that they turned around and destroyed every thing constructive the white man had built which was so much
higher than they had ever made, and
when they go thru with it they didn't have anything left, and their children were starving. And they destroyed
the very fields where the white man had
showed them how to plow and raise their food. And they have been so busy with bloodshed that they haven't discovered
the every secrets of how to sustain
life, of which they were taught. The result is that now you see  nothing but starving children in the
situation.
Now, something else stands out for they don't have the know how to help
one another or to take care ofÂ
themselves, or one another physically. Now, you can say Oh!, but you liveÂ
under a better environment. Well you came out of the best environment
possible for you came from heaven to
earth, but I want you to know that as farÂ
as earth is concerned, the natural man who tries to weigh things out on
a natural plane would have to admit
that these Negroes have been in the earthÂ
thousands of years longer than there is any record of the white race,
and so it is not a matter of
environment or opportunity, it is only the lack of the capacity to produce and do things which the spirit in you can
produce. There was a time when in other
places they possibly knew more than they doÂ
now, but this disintegration comes from violation of Divine Law.   The Kingdom of God is a Kingdom of Divine
Law, and its operation is on how things
are put together. Superstition and ignorance has people operating and living
not under Divine Law and how things are taken apart by error. When Jesus said:..' I am the way', He
demonstrated that this knowledge of spiritual power which He had and which He
could use at all times could be
directed and sent by the very activity of His thinking to the very areas which needed it, whether it was an
individual, whether it was some where
close or over the hill somewhere else. Thy thinking made thy sons or they daughters whole..'As you think, so be
it unto you.' The capacity to direct
and to send the great creative energy is what we are talking about. Is this hard for the great creative God who
holds the whole Universe together?? Every vibrant atom related to the other
atoms of substance in His Universe
having the energy form of its being, to the great molecular masses and the great and mighty creative forces of
God are all set in motion. So we tell
you that when He said:...'I am the way', there was something that He wanted you to start thinking about. At
all times the Christ knew that He was
the embodiment of Deity. At all times there is nothing more important for you to remember as a people..than
this:..you are the children of god,Â
from heaven to earth, there is nothing more important than that.   When Jesus prayed He prayed concerning the
fact that you were the children of God
from Heaven to earth..God's in Heaven and God's in earth. You belonged to Him in the heavens and you
belonged to Him in the earth. There was
nothing more completely that He wanted to bring to your memory than that you were destined to conform to
His own Image in the earth. I can read
this in the Book of Romans and you will note that the Book of Romans contains a lot of mysteries concerning the
children of God...the sons andÂ
daughters of God. And we have talked to you in the past about the
great hour of the expectation of the
creature...waiting for the manifestations ofÂ
the sons of God. And that God's Spirit bears witness with our spirit
that we are the sons of God. We turn
here in the Book of Romans to His declaration:...'Whom He did foreknow'.
Knowing you in the Heavens before theÂ
creation..there He knew you and did determine or pre‑destined that
you would conform to His Image of His
own Incarnate form. He did pre‑determineÂ
that everyone He called would come, and that those He called would be
justified, and those He justified He would glorify. Or empower with Light
and Majesty.   I turn to the Book of Ephesians and I see that the whole family
in heaven and in earth have been named
in the Father. I see that He who descended to earth also ascended and He
brought many sons unto Glory when HeÂ
did that. But here in earth He gave some sons to be Apostles, some for
disciples, some for prophets, some for evangelists, pastors and teachers,
and when He did that...this is for the
perfection of the offspring of God. TheÂ
word Saints means the believing offspring. For the work of the
ministry, the work of the edifying of
the body, or the whole physical race in whichÂ
the Spirit of Christ dwells..this...the body of Christ today are the
children of the Adamic race in which His Spirit dwells. As they are consciously aware of this the body of Christ is to be
strengthened and edified until we all
come to the unity of Faith. This is the power to put what we believe into action, and the knowledge of the
Incarnation of the life of God, andÂ
unto the perfect man. And unto the measure of the stature of the
fullness of Christ. I want you to know
that there is no greater Destiny ahead, noÂ
greater expectancy that what God has ordained for your race. I want you
to know that one of the great secrets
is that with responsibility of, for it,Â
the highest of all under which you live and learn is the law of life
and love. This is the great
commandment, for He said:...you..love one another. Here He was talking to the Israel brothers...your race. The great
problem before us is the creative
translating of this into the meeting of everyÂ
human need. We haven't the time to discuss all the things related to
this but I want you to know that God
has given you greater creative genius thanÂ
any race ever possessed before. And you are proving this by
restoring everything you lost by the
fall. When man fell everything that would haveÂ
been his by wisdom, technological application and knowledge came
now... with the hard work of his hands,
and the seat of his brow, as he sustainedÂ
himself by the production of his food.   Do you know that where you stand today is..that by your
knowledge you have lifted this burden
and this part of the restoration has already come? For now it doesn't take all the straining effort of every person
to make his own living. If it does,
then it is because of the system under which we operate has permitted the enemy to gear its economy.   I read this article about a great steel
plant we are building...we have taken
our brains and put everything together until it is all automatic, and now it only takes 5 men to run that whole
giant operation. 5 men...one handles
the input, one man handles the machinery after the steel has been poured, one man covers the electronic part,
one man in the master nerve center, and
one man in the master computer level. And these 5 men will run this plant where before 870 men would have
been required to run this plant. But we
have reached the point where only 5 men are needed to do this. If we were to divide these men up into 200 working
hours which they would produce in one
week, we could say 200 men worked for 1 hour, but still the fact remains that
these 5 men can still operate this whole plant.  Â
Now:...what has this to with us?
Well, I want you to see that there areÂ
some of the perplexities that have come as our knowledge and technology
has  increased, but there is still a
responsibility which dwells in you that youÂ
are concerned about your neighbor. Everyone who is of the household of
God ...everyone who is of the family,
your brother, is your concern. The problem of this hour is to direct all the
blessings and the benefits that ourÂ
knowledge has produced, until they are blessings and not curses. Because
if you let the rascals run this thing,
then they aren't geared by the laws ofÂ
the kingdom, and they aren't geared by the laws of God, and are only
interested in their self interest and they own personal relationship to
this, and pretty soon you find one of
the greatest of catastrophes descending onÂ
your society. That is one of the reasons why I tell you that the most
awe inspiring, overpowering law, is the
law of life, and the law of understanding. But now our society has to be geared
to spiritual law and not to materialism. We will discover that we can live in a
physical plane as well as a spiritual
plane when we operate it under spiritual law.   When you say:..the Spirit of the Law of Life in Christ Jesus
makes me free from the Law of sin and
death, it also makes you free in all your operations. Yes it is a good thing to
have a brotherhood week,..if we recognize who our brothers are. I think it is
an important thing today that weÂ
recognize that the great strength of God's Kingdom and its rising
Destiny inevitably is going to come,
but one of the most important things whichÂ
must take place is for the Kingdom to be knit together solidly, and
for everyone of the Kingdom to be
interested in the welfare of every element ofÂ
that Kingdom. Interested in its healing, its supply, its health, its
vitality, its necessity. To acquire this...that the Kingdom is going to have
to have a great spiritual basking in
the Light of YAHWEH‑God. This is why oneÂ
of the great developments in God's Kingdom for this age, is the same
enveloping Glory..Christ had at His Resurrection, and this is promised for
this Kingdom. With this the problems
can be solved, the more we can relieve menÂ
from the production of these substances we use as instruments, the more
men can start to use his time and
energy for developing of spiritual law, in aÂ
physical world.  Â
There is an awful lot of people who
never have much to do with God noÂ
matter how much time they have. That is why the Spiritual Life in you
must catalyze that. There were a great
many people who probably never paid muchÂ
attention unto the form of their orthodoxy...until Christ challenged
them and said:..'Follow Me.'  'For never a man spake like this man'.   Â
I am going to tell you in bearing
witness to the truth, that truthÂ
awakens a quality of remembrance and recognition. It starts to lift you
up, and He said: 'if I be lifted up, I
draw all men to me.' I tell you that youÂ
are going to start to draw all men unto truth, and to watch that
truth catalyze until it transforms your
whole generation. I believe the most important thing you can do is preach the
Kingdom with all the love of God. His
animosity is not toward the individual in the earth but it is directed against the evil.   Don't become unbalanced in your thinking concerning the Law of
God, and think that the Law of God, the
Law of Life, and the Law of Love does notÂ
destroy evil when it becomes embodied to the point it upsets
everybody's welfare. You turn to the
Book of Revelation and Christ says:...I returnÂ
with a mighty army...to do what? To destroy evil, and for that cause
the powers of darkness wage war against
Him. And finally the powers of theÂ
Beast System...the false Prophets of Darkness...and Anti‑Christ
are broken and the people are set
free.   There is something for which
you will have to use a rod of iron...weÂ
read here that even unto the Kingdom of the Most High...the King of
King's shall come and He will rule over
the nations with the firmness of a rod ofÂ
iron. But the Grace of God added to this is the Light of Life, the
healing of their sicknesses, their
bodies, their diseases. The restoration and the Light of that is going to come forth out of you...because you are
His children.  Â
There is so much that God has
prophesied about His Kingdom that I thinkÂ
one of the most important things we can recognize is that we should
think more and more of who we are. We
should realize more and more as the children of the Most High, and know of our
Sonship, and know that inherited in us
is the Light of the Glory and the Power. Then start to translate that into some operation to our benefit, as well
as the benefit of the world. Start
thinking, believing, commanding, and then watch the powers of darkness
dispelled.    Never will there be a
greater opportunity that you have today in this great day of Transition.                               (End of this message)       .
