                     THE POWER
OF THE ETERNAL PRIESTHOOD Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â
by Dr. Wesley Swift   Â
7-17-61 Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â We are turning this
afternoon in our discussions of the power of the Eternal Priesthood, and the
responsible relationship you have with God which belongs alone to your race,
belongs to the offspring of the MOST HIGH.Â
When we talk about this Priesthood, we want you to recognize that you
are out of a race and are a part of a nation that makes up God’s Kingdom. That you are a part of a nation of Priests
and Kings in the process of development of a full understanding of the
responsibilities of those high orders.Â
If you would turn to the book of Revelation, you would note in the 6th
chapter of Revelation, that one of the great declarations concerning you and
the people of God’s household, generally is that the earth and those on it, all
of those who enter in it, are singing a song of praise unto the Incarnate
revelation of the man Christ Jesus as the High Priest of our race. Saying, ‘Thou are worthy to take the book,
thou art worthy to break the seal, thou wast slain and has redeemed us unto God
by thy blood OUT OF EVERY KINDRED AND TONGUE AND PEOPLE, AND NATION. And thou hast made us unto our God, Kings
and Priests, and WE SHALL REIGN ON EARTH.’ The declaration in
translation is not as clear as it might be.Â
But it is that He has taken us out of the kindred, and that word is
relatives. The word used here for
kindred means, out of all of the relatives, the families, and wherever in earth
that this kindred is found, the people of God---to restore them to what they
possess---is assured. The great
climactic time here in Revelation is that HE (Jesus the Christ), has made us
unto our God, Kings and Priests. And
the administration of such priesthood and such kingship is not far off removed
in distance and space, but is going to take place here in the earth. For we have been made a nation of Kings and
Priests and we shall reign upon the earth. One of the great
significant facts as you reside here in a physical body is that this body has
become your residence. But it is more
than just a body surrounding a living ‘Being.’Â
For you are told over here as St. Peter writes in the 2nd chapter of I
Peter, (he is here talking about your race) and he says, ‘Ye are lively stones,
and you are built up into a lively house, a Holy Priesthood, to offer up
spiritual sacrifices to thru His incarnate revelation as Jesus the
Christ.’ Therefore it is also contained
in the scriptures, ‘I reign in Zion, a chief cornerstone, elect and
precious.’ And this is the part
identifying this ‘Living Stone’--the man Christ Jesus. The Apostle Paul, by his
writings, has also thrown light on this symbolism and this meaning is carefully
contained here. The Apostle Paul speaks
concerning you who are a part of the Church, the living organism of His
Kingdom, and you who constitutes the same race he is addressing in his
Epistles. For he wrote those Epistle
and addressed them to the twelve tribes which were scattered abroad. And he was writing to the Children of
Israel. When the Apostle Paul wrote, he
told the people of Corinth, the Corinthians, that they were all a part of the
same household, the same race. Had all
taken of the same spiritual food and had all taken of the same water which came
out of the ROCK. And they were all a
part of the same history, the same migration of the children of God’s
Kingdom. And the Apostle Paul knew that
these people, the Corinthians, were a part of the people of God’s family. He knew that they were a part of God’s
Covenant people, and also the people of this Book. Peter, when he wrote to
these twelve tribes which were scattered abroad, knew that his Epistles would
eventually reach them and their process of development was the program of
God. Thus he speaks again to you as the
people unto whom he addressed this Epistle and he also said that ‘Ye are Living
Stones.’ The Apostle Paul said that you
know this, ‘THAT YOURS IS THE TEMPLE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.’ It is translated as the Holy Ghost, and this
phrase is used somewhat interchangeably.Â
But the pattern is sometimes marked by only a change of words. And the intelligent meaning just identifies
your relationship and makes it identifiable with God. This is clearly understood when we realize that we are the
children of the MOST HIGH GOD and we say, ‘Our Father who are in heaven,
hallowed by Thy name.’ We recognize
that this is the prayer that Jesus the Christ taught us to pray, and we also
realize as we study the scriptures, concerning what God has to say, concerning
these prophecies for us, that we are His Kingdom. And because of this, once again we turn back to the evidence
supported by Paul in the 2nd chapter of Hebrews, that God, Himself, knew that
we were his kinsmen, and since the kinsmen of God, all the children of God were
in bodies of flesh, He took on Himself the same body out of the same race, so
that He might be just like His brothers, His kinsmen, and His relatives. There is thus a
significant factor here which is contained here in what Paul said.  And what is said here by Peter, mainly that
you are the children of God and that He is your Father, and He is a God of
Spirit altho He has been embodied in flesh.Â
Still He begot you IN SPIRIT BEFORE THE WORLD WAS FRAMED. You are the children of His Spirit from the
very beginning of His purpose and plan.Â
And He begat each one of you as the Apostle Paul told us in Ephesians,
and in the testimony of other Epistles,---of the existence of the spirit, and
God’s purposes for you, that you have been blessed with ALL SPIRITUAL BLESSINGS
IN HEAVENLY PLACES, WITH THE FATHER BEFORE THE WORLD WAS FRAMED. There is nothing you can
know this afternoon concerning your race and its responsibilities in the earth,
the development of God’s Kingdom, and the responsibilities resting upon it, and
the antiquity of God’s plan and purpose----the days in pre-Adamic pattern, this
spiritual pattern which dates back into the antiquity of yesterday, which goes
before the creation of the earth, and the rolling forth of this solar
system. You are the children of God
from the hour that you were begotten of the Father in the Eternities of
Yesterday. And the essence of His life
and His spirit was also incorporated into the offspring of the MOST HIGH, and this
was the essence of God’s spirit, with spiritual capacity. Everyone of God’s children begotten by His
spirit, has in the wavelength of their Celestial existence a capacity to think
the thoughts of God and to receive the wavelengths of the vibratory field of
God’s thoughts, and have erected in the seat of their consciousness the same
image or picture of God’s purpose and plan out of his mind so that it can be
reflected in yours. Because those of a
different origin and who do not have this essence of God’s spirit as a begotten
issue in them and have not emerged as Celestial children of God, cannot and
will not think or receive the same image pattern as you do by inspiration of
the Holy Spirit. It is because of this that God Himself marks this difference,
in His disciples and promised to pour out His Holy Spirit, this spirit which He
said that they could receive but the world could not receive it. Now, it is then a very
foolish thing to try to go out into the pagan nations of the world, to the
other people of different races and tell they that you can bestow upon them the
revelations of God’s mind by some process where they will receive it direct
from God, when God said that by the wavelength of inspiration, they do not have
the capacity to receive it. It can only
be by the instruction and the light and the continuation of a New Work that
they can understand the things of God and receive it, by His Spirit. I think it is most
significant then that since you know that inside of you, in essence and being,
that you are one with God. That you are
a personality spiritually as well as physically. You have come forth out of God and you are alike unto Him. And deep inside of you is light and energy,
and specific knowledge which belongs to your Father, and belongs to you because
you are a child of your Father, which does not exist in the nations round
about, which did not receive them. It
does not exist in natural men, which do not possess this spiritual capacity. At no time and under no circumstances should
a child of God’s Kingdom be classified as natural men of men without
spirit. There is no time when your race
was without the essence inside of your Celestial nature of God’s spirit, even
before it is quickened to do His work, and even before they have answered the
call of cognition as to their Father.Â
There may be even one in ignorance throughout the nation, and throughout
the world. But they are still children
of the Father, and none of them are outside of the capacity of His Holy Spirit
to gather them. There are many people
inside of your nation of God’s Kingdom, and there are many people who come and
go who are not acceptable to the call of God’s Spirit, nor are they responsible
to come to it, nor would they hear it if He would call. This is also evident in the days when the
Apostle Paul who in the process his name was changed from Saul to Paul, and tho
he was an Israelite and of the tribe of Benjamin, and was trained in the
contemporary knowledge and science of his day, had been misguided by the power
of the false Jewish priesthood, who assumed they could use him to destroy and
wage war against the Christians because he desired to serve God. But he had not come to a full interpretation
by revelation of what this all consisted of.Â
But deep down in the Apostle Paul, was the essence of Christ, was the
very element of the Holy Seed. And
because of this, when he was on the road to persecute more disciples, when he
was about this, suddenly, on this road, God spoke out of the heavens and a
light shown down around this company with Saul and those who were with him. Now, who did he have with
him? He had a whole company of Jewish
soldiers with him going out to persecute Christians. But Saul was not a Jew.Â
He was a Benjaminite of the Kingdom of Judah. He was of the race of the Kingdom of God, a begotten offspring of
the spirit. And tho he did not know
these things, and even went out to wage war against the principals of God, but
when God spoke to him, he stopped and was thrown virtually from his horse by
the shock of what he heard. And he
looked into the heavens and he heard the voice and he beheld Christ. And the Christ said, ‘Saul, Saul, why do you
persecute me?’ Remember he heard, but not
one single Jew with him heard the voice.Â
They just thought it thundered.Â
And this is evident in what Jesus said to the Jews, when He was
identifying them with their father. He
said that they had a different background and origin than He had. He said, ‘I am of God and ye are of the
devil.’ More than that He said, ‘You cannot
understand my speech because you cannot understand my words.’ Thus if the word comes
forth from the spirit, and is on a spiritual wavelength, of audible frequency
to one possessing the spirit, then he who does not have this spirit within him,
is not the begotten offspring of the Spirit of God. And the Jews of that day did not have it either. You say, ‘What has this to
do with this Eternal Priesthood?’Â
Remember that there is an Eternal Priesthood that belongs to every one
of the children of God, because they are God’s children. This follows thru with something that can
never be put away and never be destroyed.Â
And you have the total revelation in the completion of God’s plan for
each one of His children. If you go
back into the whole structure of the Old Testament, you will discover that
there was a certain Patriarchial rule that the man, the husband, was the Priest
of his family as long as he lived. And
the father of the household had enough of the intellect of God until he could
understand and know what he was supposed to do. Thus we see the evidence of this in all of the Patriarchal
age. Even in the days of Adam,
when God continued to commune with Adam, to contact Adam, and as he did with
Seth. Then going back to the early
Patriarchs of Enoch and Job, these two men were not only spoken to by God,
administered to by Angels, but each one of them had a High Priesthood. They were not only Priests unto their own
families, as we see in the conditions of Job, you go back and read the book of
Job, one of the oldest periods, and you will discover that Job offered
sacrifices for the transgressions of his sons, even for some they might have
committed, but he guessed that they might have, and for everything which he
thought that he might need adjustment with God. Job was the High Priest unto his family. Now, we know that this
Patriarchal Priesthood existed among your race and it continues down in all
generations and has been their responsibility.Â
And it rested there whether they understood it or not, for this to pass
from one generation to another. That is
why in the early days of your nation, and back down thru the history of your
own nation, the father, the grandfather, if alive, and even the great
grandfather became almost a spiritual measure in a man’s family, continually
relating and pointing out their relationship with God. Generally the older they became, the more
wise they became and the more spiritual impact they had.  The younger they were they were being
instructed in the patterns of life and living and being instructed by their
father, or grandfather, or even their great grandfather. In fact, as men became more wise and
adjusted to the things in their environment, there was a quickening process
also which adjusted them with this structure of what we call the Patriarchal
Priesthood. This has continued to exist
and can be proved with every one of the basic leaders of Israel. With Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob,
each one in his lifetime, as he obtained the position of Elder of the family, was
responsible for spiritual contact, instructions and guidance. Of course, this has been enlarged upon since
the days of the atonement. Because it
has been classified here as to the former work of the High Priest that this is
not longer essential. What do I mean by
that? Come over here to the book of
Hebrews and to the work of the High Priest, and you are told that High Priests
are taken among men. In the first
thing, a Priest is ordained for men in things which pertain to God. This is that which pertains to God, to his
to His work as a High Priest, pertains to His family, and the upholding of His
Kingdom. That is what a Priest is
for. A Priest, a minister, one who is
supposed to be serving before the MOST HIGH, is supposed to be responsible to
inform and who has recognized this authority in the things which pertain to
God. Now, in the instance of
the High Priest such as we had in the Old Testament, not only did he instruct
in the things which pertained to God, but he made sacrifices for sin. I want to tell you today that there is no
Priest that is responsible before God, to offer up his sacrifices for sin,
because that has been taken care of once and for all times. Thus Christ in His one Atonement as Christ
the Incarnate One of God, became the High Priest, the Patriarchal for your
race, became also the atoning Lam by His own decision and put aside for all
times, the guilt complex from your society. More people are sick today
from hypertension and nervous disorders and mental disturbances because of the
overlaying of guilt complexes which is a realization that some how would swing
from their subconscious mind into their materialistic views. And they get a guilt complex. They start to feel the pressures upon
them. It upsets their whole pattern of
life and thinking, and it gives them trouble in their body. It turns loose toxic forces and you have the
resulting processes in their bodies and their nervous systems and there is
nothing today which can re-balance minds, and tear away this toxic condition
for any part of the body which breaks down, or the glands to stop being
actively patterned, all of this is probably activated more by not recognizing
and not being balanced in relationship to God as to His Grace, as to the
consummation of His atonement, as to the fulfillment of His priesthood, and as
to the things which are born by natural heritage because of who you are. We have told you that
every last child of Adam and then from Abraham down to your time, and from the
days of Christ to your time, and into the tomorrows, that their transgressions
have consummated, and the supreme sacrifice has been finished. And the atonement has been made, for the
principal of their violating law under the guidance of Lucifer in this
continuing warfare. Practically everything
done wrong by your race is done in a mental warfare which operates out of the
patterns of suggestion and out of the panoramas of communication in some
fields. That is one of the reasons why
he can place in your mind the actual thinking of the world order, and permit
you in the process of your own dwelling in your own body to be more enveloped
in your thinking with the way the world thinks than to direct your course of
destiny by the superior law of the Household of God. And therefore, captivates them.Â
He even gives them defeat complexes.Â
He suppresses their spirit and by this process, he seems to have
accomplished a partial victory over the earth. Even tho the children of
God started from one man’s family, and today are one-sixth of the worlds population,
if the children of God were to exercise their spiritual power and Glory, they
would flood the earth with Majesty and would reel back every evil and bind
every devil and force Lucifer to surrender and go out of business. He knows that thus he wages a war against
you in the seat of your consciousness.Â
He wages a war against the world, but the world order was not
established with Celestial seed, it lacks the capacities that you have. The reason God sent you, His children into
the world from outer space, from the creations of God, is because He knew the
elements and the quality of this spiritual nature which He placed in you. He knew that you were spiritual children
before you came. And He knew that
embodied in earth bodies, that ultimately that indestructible spirit was going
to accomplish its purpose. You look back over the
history of the race and you say there have been hundreds and hundreds of
thousands, and millions who have died and they did not accomplish the fullness
of their Priesthood. But they
accomplished some purpose in God’s plan for the multiplication of race, for the
spreading forth the element of faith.Â
And eventually even they will be resurrected to finish the work they
were sent here to do, because I am going to tell you that every son and
daughter of God, is going to finish, in the world, the work he was sent here to
do if God has to raise him up and make him do it in the millennium. There is not defeat in God’s Kingdom. And you need to understand now that it is
important for us to bring to you the fact that there is a responsibility that
rests on every father and every mother to carry forth the instructions which
pertains to race and to culture, and to God’s relationship to them, their
responsibility in earth and what they are here for and to pass it on to every
generation. If there is a break down
today in Patriotism and Nationalism, and racial self-respect, until it ends up
in socialism and degeneration, the responsibility lies first that the parents
must sow permanently into the minds of their children these cultural and basic
facts concerning who they are and what they are. These then will bear fruit in the face of every other catastrophe
that might be leveled against your nature.Â
Someone said, ‘What about sin offerings?’  You cannot make any sin offering today. They are all atoned for.Â
Someone said, ‘What about spiritual sacrifices?’ We have accepted ONCE AND FOR ALL TIME THE
SPIRITUAL SACRIFICE OF THE CHRIST. And
there is nothing to be added to it or taken from it as far as the CONSUMMATED
ATONEMENT FOR TRANSGRESSION. But there
are many spiritual services and many spiritual activities, and Divine
operations which your spiritual Celestial is acquainted with, and which your
spirit knows more about than your physical brain. Did you know that the spirit prays while you sleep? And it prays for things that the physical
body does not even know about. The Apostle
Paul tells us this. Now, listen. Your body is the Temple of the Holy
Spirit. And that Holy Spirit is the
essence of God’s spirit. But the
occupier who lived in this Holy Temple is you.Â
Therefore, each one of you are inside a moving element, a unit of God’s
Temple. Therefore, this Temple is the
Temple of God’s Holy Spirit and you are the occupier. So you preach in that temple all the time, every day. And some priests have not done a single
thing of Divine service, conscious of their knowledge in their lifetime as
yet. So you see that the mighty
elements must be activated and the only ones who can activate it are those who
possess God’s spirit, under the direction of God’s Spirit itself. Some say that there is a lot of hope for
some who look incorrigible. But some
people in some denominaitons have already confined them to some type of
religious torture. But my God does not
stop there. For my God will activate
that spirit, will awaken, and bring him out and make him perfore. For if anyone was performing in the wrong
direction it was Saul, altho he did ot know it. But God stopped him right there and transformed Saul to Paul in
the fulfillment of his ministry and you cannot say that it was Saul that chose
the Father, for it was the FATHER who chose the son, and extracated him out of
the Jewish influence he was in and established him in the position of the great
Apostle which he was destined for from the beginnning. Probably no man had a
greater experience than this man. For
he was taken into the heavens, and he walked into the presence of the MOST
HIGH, was educated and developed, as God developed him to become the Apostle to
the churches and the nations of His Kingdom.Â
I tink it most significant as to some of th efacets which surround some
of this Priesthood, that as you recognize that you are the Adamic household,
the Adamic seed. (Must remember that
Audaum means White man.)Â We have told
you this before. But we will tell you
again, Audaum or Adam means White man and Enosh means beings. And they also walk around but were created
and they live in houses, but most of the things they have gotten for this living
in the world they have gotten from your race in the last 7400 years. But the fact remains that Adam means White
man. And these Adamic children have a
responsibility in the earth. For you
were sent here to do certain things.Â
Therefore, when we say to you that these bodies of White men are temples
of the Living God, that is exactly what we mean. Someone said, ‘But Dr. Swift, what about the Negroes? What about the Chinamen?’ There are no Negroes or Chinamen on the face
of the earth whose bodies are the Temple of the Living God. ‘Oh,’ you say, ‘but what
about all the Evangelization, what about all the development that takes place
when they see religion, or accept Christ?’Â
Anytime you can convey to the Negro or to the Chinaman who the right God
is, then make him recognize the majesty of God’s purpose, the atoning work of
Christ. Then you find that this was to
redeem His children so they could finish the task from which they fell, and
then finish the task set before them until they complete it. They were to gather the nations of the world
and bring them back to the Right God, so that they will recognize the Right God
instead of Lucifer and all of their idol worship. When you save a Negro from his devil ways and a Chinaman from
worshiping his devil gods, you have brought him the salvation which God
ordained you were to bring him. And
eventually when the world is brought into place and is in perfect orbit with
your God, you are going to bring in the greatest era of development that the
world has ever seen. But you are not
going to make them your brothers, you cannot organically do that. You cannot make someone who is no my
Father’s son, your brother, one of your own household. Your Priesthood does not extend in this
particular creation in this time in which you live. Your Priesthood does not extend to the point of transforming a
man of another race into the household of the MOST HIGH GOD. Nor does it extend to you a process by which
you are going to turn certain individuals from earth to heaven, or into such a
dimension in which you once existed.Â
This is why Christ said that no man could ascend into the Celestial
heaven unless they came down out of it.Â
Therefore, the fact remains that when things are good, then these other
people are in the place God created for them to be, in perfect balance with
Him. SALVATION is the matter of
saving men from error and from transgression, from the way they operate when in
error, for when not in conjunction with God, they are in error and violating
Divine Law. We have an ugly little word
‘sin.’ You cannot take it out of your
vocabulary. It is there. Now, it then becomes
important for us to know that the one great and redeeming work of God, was not
only to take away our guilt complexes, and our fears, but it was to establish a
victory for us over sin. That is what
God came into the world to do, to save himself from sin, not from himself. We have too many people today who think that
God is trying to save people from His own wrath, their own judgement and their
peculiar thinking as to what God is like.Â
They have been trying to translate that kind of thinking into theology
and even translate it into the scriptures.Â
They have no business in trying to make God as narrow minded and as
superstitious as the pagen thought they have gathered up around them, and still
incorporate in some of the phases of their religion. When we tell you today that you in this body, are a Priest of th
eLiving God, spirit of His Spirit, life of His Life, and dwelling in this
physical body, then the Apostle Paul has given us other clarifications on
this. While we have discussed this
under other subjects it becomes important that we consider this again. Since your bodies are the temples of the
Holy Spirit, then it is for this reason that in the 6th chapter of Corinthians,
that the scripture says, ‘BE YE NOT UNEQUALLY YOKED TOGETHER WITHE
UNBELIEVERS.’ You are not to be joined
with them for WHAT FELLOWSHIP HATH LIGHT WITH DARKNESS, and what communion hath
light with darkness. Strictly speaking he
follows this out with, WHAT ACCORD HATH CHRIST WITH BELIAL, OR WHAT PART HATH
YOU BELIEVING WITH AN INFIDEL, OR WHAT ACCORD HATH THE TEMPLE OF GOD WITH THE
TEMPLE OF IDOLS? Now since your body is the
temple of the Living God, and you are the walking temple of God, then those who
come frm other cultures and backgrounds and races, from followers of devils or
witchdoctors, or totem poles, you have no communion toward that. You are not to be joined in with them, you are
not to marry among them, you are not to be socially absorping them. You have nothing in common, and you cannot
fulfill your destiny, or carry out your Divine responsibility as one of God’s
family unless you are separated with a complete hued line, simple from the
races and people of other cultures and background in the earth. Now we will support
this. What agreement hath the Temple of
God with idols, for you are the temple of the Living God.---and God has said,
‘I WILL DWELL IN THEM AND I WILL WALK IN THEM, AND I SHALL CONTINUE TO BE THEIR
GOD, AND THEY SHALL CONTINUE TO BE MY PEOPLE.Â
Therefore, come out and be ye segregated, or be ye separate, and touch
not the unclean things, so that I can receive you. You cannot move into the Holy of Holies carrying the world order
with its philosophies of error. You
have to come in with faith, and with vision before the MOST HIGH GOD, until you
have learned to throw out superstition and be enlightned. Now, then the Father says,
I can be a Father unto you---and yo9u can act as my sons and my daughters, says
YAHWEH the Almighty. Again, you are the
temple and they are not the temple.Â
They are of the temple of Belial. When we talk about this
Eternal Priesthood, it involves certain things which develop the moment your
consciousness develops concerning these purposes as they develop. Suppose I tell you that here are great
mysteries inside the scriptures and probably none more important than the life
and the mystery of the seed which is inside of this temple which you are a part
of. When the scripture is being used
the Apostle Paul tells us in the 4th chapter of II Corinthans, that God who
commands the Light to shine out of the darkness, the Creator and Author of all
things,---also has shined, stirred, vibrated, in your heart to turn loose in
the seat of your Celestial consciousness of the light of the knowledge, of the
glory of YAHWEH---that shown in the face of Jesus the Christ. Wherefore you in this body, like Christ in
His body,---God hath shinned in your heart, to charge that light battery of
your Celestial being, with the light element of His creation, the great
vibratory forces of energy which move thru spirit, and illuminated the face of
Christ, and covered Him on the Mount of Transfiguration, this power which was
revealed in His Resurrection and shown by His contenance that this was the
fullness of God dwelling bodily. ‘Oh,’
you say, ‘He just came into my heart when I spoke some words, when I heard some
evangelists.’ But this is a wavelength
of some activity given to you that is like a radio wave to your television set
and locks into your channel. This is
Divine light, set by electricity with the essence of God’s own being. Now turn to this next
verse, for this is for the Priesthood of the MOST HIGH.----YE HAVE THIS
TREASURE IN EARTHEN VESSELS inside of this body right now, that excellency
which is of the power of God---already resident in you, for we have it in these
earthen vessels, because God sent it to us.Â
This is what we want to save.Â
This Melchesidic Priesthood which is without beginning or end, is the
Eternal Priesthood of God. We are told
over in the book of Hebrews, how the ministry of Christ was this ministry of
this endless Priesthood because he was one whose spirit was without beginning
or end of days. And He had met Abraham,
we are told, in the 7th chapter of Hebrews.Â
Melchesidic, this King Priest, Incarnate MOST HIGH GOD---He met Abraham
returning from the slaughter of kings and blessed him, to whom Abraham gave a
tenth part of all. First being by
interpretation being King of Righteousness, and after that, being King of
Salem---KING OF PEACE. Now, we are told that this
King of Salem, this Priesthood, was without father, mother, without
descent. Neither the beginning of days
or the end of life, but was the Incarnate Being, the Son--Issue of God and
abideth a Priest King continually. Now, consider who this
Melchesidic, this King of Salem, was because this patriarchal Abraham, whom God
had selected was to not carry forth the responsibility of the highest plain of
the White race. But Abraham that day,
paid his tithe to Melchesidic,---that day as he gathered up his spoils from
this battle of Chedorlamer, and of all the loot, the gold and everything else,
he paid a tenth to Melchesidic, the King of Salem, who met him in this
revelation upon this field. We are told
that this Priest was greater than Abraham because Abraham gave him the
tithe. He was ahead of Levi, who would
be turned loose for the Priesthood for Israel.Â
But Levi not yet born, was in the seed of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Thus Abraham and Levi who was to come---was
written in the heavens as tithe to Melchesidic thru Abraham, his great
grandfather. Now, as you recognize
this, the fact remains that this was a Divine Priesthood which belongs only to
the Deity and to the Incarnate sons of God.Â
And this Priesthood was to be passed down on to each one of God’s
children, when they became aware of their sonship. And when they served as sons of God, they are saviors among
men. You say, ‘Oh, I cannot accept
that, Dr. Swift, for there is only one Savior.’ Well, if there is only one Savior, then, my friends, I am going
to tell you that the scripture has been very much misunderstood, because the
book of Isaiah says that He is going to send and they will be savior. And they are going out to the ends of the
earth and they are going to set the captives free. Every time you get yourself into a problem and you need to get
your self extracated from this trouble, and God raises up one of His mighty sons
to save you, think again. You have had
them in your mighty Generals, and had them in the form of great leaders. And you are the race that God used to remove
the problems. Â And they save
people from compete destruction in the earth.Â
God, Himself, visited you as the Greatest Savior of all Saviors. And He took upon Himself thru the things
that He suffered in His humanity, the right to assume the highest of all
Priesthoods. This Priesthod which
belonged to Him in the spirit WAS NOT PUT ON THE FLESH, and from that time on,
upon a man in the flesh and a physical body, born of woman, this heaven born
without descent, this Priesthood. I
want you to know that with perfect justification, that the moment that took
place on Calvary, at the sixth hour, that mighty Priesthood of God---thru the
Holy Spirit---descended upon each and every one of His sons living in this
physical body---doing the acts and works of God---bringing them closer each day
to the time when they are going to think as He thinks and know as He knows, and
act as He acts. And you are going to
find out that you are Kings and Priests. Often some people try to
make Christ a division between the spiritual rule and the physical rule of men
in the earth. And they are greatly
disturbed. For instance, David was a
man after God’s own heart. But he was
also a great and mighty warrior. And
because he was involved in great and mighty battles, he could not build the
temple for the MOST HIGH. And this was
left for a following King to build who was a great man of Peace, and known for
his great spiritual wisdom, and his longing for the building of a house for
God. This was only significant
in the great understanding and the responsibilities theser men assumed as they
moved in their destinies, but has nothing to do with climactic events of your
time. For God has placed this
responsibility of Priests and Kings upon your race. Some are being developed for Kingship, others are being developed
for Priests, for the essence of portraying the things which belong to God, to
men. Some say, ‘But if they cannot make
something which pertains to God by offering, then how can the Priest
serve?’ Of coursc, there has been, all
over Christendom, a constant Celestial offering brought before God’s people to
lift this complex from them. Any time a
minister can get across to someone in the congregation that he is not under
condemnation, that he is not carrying on his back, all the transgressions and
errors that he has committed, and that this atonement was consummated by Christ
at the Cross, and that he absolutely believes now and for all time, that person
has accepted a spiritual sacrifice which took place years ago. A one time Spiritual Sacrifice was
offered.  But the important thing of our
time, is the conveyance of LIVE GIVING POWER.Â
You see the spirit of God is the spirit of Life. And when God visited the earth and was born
of this race of which you are a part, and took upon Himself the full
responsibility of His Priesthood, remember what the Apostle Paul said. The Second Adam was A LIFE GIVING
SPIRIT. Therefore, out of the Spirit
that dwelt in the man Christ Jesus, went Life.Â
It went to those who contacted it.Â
And it went to those who came near it.Â
Even those who touched the hem of His garment drew life out of it. I want you to know that
since you have passed the atonement, as you have moved into the hour when you
are justified by His Spirit, when He, Himself, was fully Immaculate in His
Righteousness,---as far as God is concerned, you stand justified before Him
with not one charge against you. He has
moved those transgressions against you as far as the East is from the
West. And they are remembered against
you no more. For this cause, there is
nothing a man can say or do to stop what Jesus said as a Father speaking to you as a Shepherd,
‘ALL THAT THOU (spirit) HATH GIVEN ME SHALL COME, AND I WILL IN NO WISE CAST
THEM OUT.’ There is not cause for which
God will cast out a son. When this is
understood, ALL THAT THE FATHER (spirit) HATH GIVEN ME SHALL COME. This it the mighty work of God’s spirit
combing His Universe and developing His purpose as He consummates His plan. Now, as your
responsibility as Priest in your Temple becomes a life giving spirit because of
the energy of Life in the face of Christ, the power that dominated Him is also
resident in you.  Someone said, ‘Well,
there is not much light in me.’ But
that is just because it is doemant for lack of use. The only thing today which stops your White race and Christian
civilization from just stepping in and putting everything back in order like it
belongs, is this lock on the brain placed there by listening to what the ‘world
order’ has to say. Do you know that
brain blockage rolled away and you started to think like former citizens of
heaven, as you should, then you would immediately start every spiritual process
working in your body. Do you know that
there are a lot of people academically sick who are facing this New Age when
the New Mortality is here for them, and the price has already been paid. They have already accepted the fact tha
twhen Christ comes, then immortality will descend upon all of your race. And they have already been promised that all
this is given to them now. But they
say, ‘But I don’t think I am good enough.Â
I think that I have fallen short here.’Â
But everybody has fallen short of the Glory of God. But everybody of the race has been
reinstated to an equality with God, by His own Spirit. And His Spirit justifies you. I am going to tell you
something. If you believe God, tonight,
you would be more praised than if you held back on this point. Some will say, ‘I am not satisfied that I am
justified by His Spirit to stand before HIM, and I do not need to be justified
again.’ Let me tell you something. If you believe God, it is counted for
righteousness. If you don’t believe
HIM, you do not get even what is imputed.Â
I want you to recognize that if you will stop taking this brain
block,---you know there is trouble in America today---and the reason for this
trouble is that we have too many people in America who are of the temple of
Belial. This the scripture tells
us---they are Satan’s offspring. They
are activated by one great war against God’s Kingdom. And their promises are all materialistic. And none of htem have spiritual life. Some are evaluated by emotion, and none by
spiritual response in a physical body.Â
They have come into your nation, and you should have never let them
in. But they have now moved into
positions of authority. They use the
mighty power of their purse. And they
surround the Presidtn, and today, there are more non-Christians around the
President. And that is why we are in
trouble. You find this out and yet most
of this nation is against Communism, most in this nation are against double
dealing. Most of this nation wants to
get along and yet resist Communism. Most of the nation is against high taxation, and
donot want to use your money on the pagans all over the world and want to stop
it. So why do they not rise and stop it? Why don’t you move? Why do you not tell your Congressman what to
do? Why do you not let them know that
140 million of you want them to run this nation right? You say, ‘I want to do this, but I am
waiting for some one to start it.’ This
is a brain block. For you have been
told that you cannot have it. They have
told you that you better look out, there will be government forces. There will be the army, the air force, and
the marines to contend with. But these
forces are made up of your sons. When
you start to release the power of God’s spirit, when you start to proclaim
truth, it is going to sweep from one end of this nation to the other and it
will become current.  One of these days
you are going to stand up and say---’you are not going to run us any more.’ And we will have Presidents that will open
their thinking for the day with a request for the guidance of God. And there will not be any Communists that
will talk up to us because we no longer are going to take that kind of
thing. We are going to occupy the
earth, and we are going to rule for our Father and we will be Kings and Priests
in the earth. Someone said, ‘But we will
have to fight.’ That is right, but then
we have always had to fight to even exist in the earth. Before we are thru we are going to fight
evil to a standstill. We are going to
banish it from the earth. We are going
to see that the laws of God are enforced, and the world will see its greatest
day. Someone said, ‘But, Dr.
Swift, I am just praying for a great revival.Â
For Soviet Russia is going to sweep China and it is going to sweep
Africa. So I am praying for this
Revival which shall come any minute now.’Â
I said, ‘Who told you that?’ He
said, ‘Well, I heard it on this broadcast and I have heard it on that
broadcast. And I have heard this
preacher and that one telling us this, saying that a great revival is going to
sweep the world and then all are going to be Christians and we will all live
happily ever after.’ I said, ‘Well,
they must have a different Bible than I have.Â
Mine tells me that you can preach day after day and year after year, and
you have bben doing this for almost 2000 years. And you can say, yes, we White Christians are one sixth of the
worlds population, and that is right.Â
But there is more of them than there was before, because that population
is also building back up again to where it was before the Ante-diluvian
catastrophe. And you are not making
much headway. A few years ago, the
United Churches of Christ were joining with other movements to form a
denomination. But the United Churches
of Christ does not need to be a denomination. The great and mighty Christian
Church is an institution and does not have to conform to any Ecclesiastical
hierarchy in the world. And we sure do
not need a new one. What we are waiting
for is the day of One Faith, one Baptism, one LORD, when all the children,
Priests in their Holy Temple, serve before the world. Let me tell you this. The
Churches of Christ have been falling for this ‘brotherhood’ program of
Jewry. And like the Pentacostal group
which went down to the big conference which they held down in Jerusalem, and
the Jews paid the bills, and then they paid to have a conference set in
America. And they had about three or
four Ambassadors before they were thru.Â
Having treated them well, and paid for all their spaces while they
Evangelized, all these churches thought this was wonderful. For it had been paid for by Jewry. And everything related to it ever
since. But they got a lot of press
agents for a little bit of money. But I want to tell you
something which is very interesting.Â
This is that you do not make any headway when you deal with Satan’s
children. If these Churches of Christ
which have spent quite a few million dollars for Evangelization----they have
been gathering up a lot of money and pouring it into missions down in
Jerusalem. And now this is the
result. The Church of Christ has ceased
having missions in Jerusalem because the Jews have been hurling stones at them. This has been brought to question and an
extraordinary meeting has been called for tomorrow. The commissioner of Jerusalem called the meeting. The minister of this Church of Christ in
Israel, had asked for police protection.Â
And alto theey have been engaged there for six years, they only have
thirty more people coming after all those years, to join with the minister and
his wife and six children, for services, after all the time and the money spent
in Israeli. And I will wager that all
those outside of the minister, his wife and their six children, are Arabs. I will wager that those who come to church
are Lebanese and not Israeli’s. Last
Sunday night, there was great blast and it broke up the congregation, and the
minister said that there would be no more services there unless they have
police protection. Can you imagine any
Christian service getting police protection down in Israeli? So the paper said that all
of the animosity of the Jew against Christians was because of all the
advertised publicity of this trial. But
they should not be mad at the Christians, for after all, it is a Jew on the stand. I do not know about the original Eichman,
but the fellow down there now on the stand, is a Jew. They have brought him back to Israeli and they say they will hang
him if he does not take up Judaism. But
I think he is a phoney from the word go.Â
And if he is not a phoney, he is someone who has been given a
lobotamy. For anyone who would turn Jew
in any circumstances, is utterly touched in the head. Whether they are movie stars or anything else. I even think that Sammy Davis Jr. went down
hill after he became a Jew. I think it is significant
for us to recognize that the Priesthood is a family affair, that the kingship
in God’s Universe in every sphere of it is a family affair. I think that you should recognize that this
is a family affair. We say, ‘Our Father
which art in heaven, hallowed be thy name.’Â
   We have no time to finish this
subject, but when we say, the children of the Heavenly Father, those nations
are most loved. And your responsibility
is greater because of who you are. (End
