The Spiritual Christmas part 2

The world will accept the Christ when the world is sufficiently in need of It: The Hebrews under Pharaoh accepted Moses, but their need was great; the Hebrews under Caesar accepted the Christ, also because their need was great. And so this entire world will accept the Christ when its need becomes great enough. Some evidence of this is becoming apparent because in those countries that have experienced the greatest problems we have found the greatest receptivity and response.

Christmas – New Year’s Message

Abide in this Word. Abide in It, live in It. You have meat that the world knows not of. This is the Christ message: You have meat, wine and water and resurrection. You have within you a Presence that was planted there by God that you might have life and that you might have it more abundantly. And if you live in this awareness morning to night and night to morning, the crust of the human demonstration will break, and the spiritual demonstration will come through. Continue reading Christmas – New Year’s Message

The Religion Of Mysticism (4/4)

In this very moment, relax, so that the word “Peace” can reach and touch you. Let “My Spirit” guide and enrich you. Let “My Spirit” be a Presence going before you to make the crooked places straight. Learn to rest, and rely on this assurance of “My Presence.” Let the peace that passeth understanding descend upon you and envelop you. Let it be the love unto your life; let it be the Presence and the Power unto your life. Continue reading The Religion Of Mysticism (4/4)

The Religion Of Mysticism (3/4)

If you are called upon for a healing and you know only one statement of truth, pour it, voice it, think it, and it will be followed by another. If you have only one dollar, break it, spend it, dime by dime, quarter by quarter: know that as each coin follows the other, so will one dollar follow upon another. God is your only capacity, and God fulfills Itself moment by moment. Even God cannot live the next hour—just this moment. Even the sun cannot shine tomorrow—this is the moment of its shining. Out of the infinite nature of God flows this universe, minute by minute, hour by hour, day by day, on into eternity. Continue reading The Religion Of Mysticism (3/4)

The Religion Of Mysticism (2/4)

“Illumination dissolves all material ties and binds men together with the golden chains of spiritual understanding; it acknowledges only the leadership of the Christ; it has no ritual or rule but the divine, impersonal universal Love; no other worship than the inner Flame that is ever lit at the shrine of Spirit. This union is the free state of spiritual brotherhood. The only restraint is the discipline of Soul, therefore we know liberty without license; we are a united universe without physical limits; a divine service to God without ceremony or creed. The illumined walk without fear—by Grace.” Continue reading The Religion Of Mysticism (2/4)

The Religion Of Mysticism (1/4)

  Only as love becomes embodied within our consciousness, and only as we learn not to condemn, judge or criticize others, to hold no one in bondage to his errors of omission or commission, can we realize the power of love. Only as we learn to pray that the eyes even of our enemies be opened to the Christ, praying that God be the light, wisdom and understanding governing all men, friend or foe, regardless of race, color or creed, are we lifted into a consciousness that frees, not only ourselves but all those who come within range of our thought. We free others from their errors even as we are freed from our own. Continue reading The Religion Of Mysticism (1/4)

Today you begin the rebirth. You “die” today. You “die” today to the human being seeking good. You must be reborn of the spirit of God into the realization of good flowing forth through you. Pray? Yes, yes! Pray without ceasing, but do not ask, beseech, or beg God. No, no. Prayer must now be an inner communion with the source of all good. It must not be asking for things; it must be a recognition that at the center of your being there is this invisible vine which has been placed there in the beginning in order that you might be fulfilled. Then your good will appear in the outer realm in whatever form is necessary. Continue reading Open Out a Way
