Man
is the Key by reason of which God can unlock the Doors of Heaven on earth. Let
us consider Man. We find joy in considering God, and the things of God. Of all
the things of God on earth, Man is the most important. Man is of God, and when Man is restored to his
true relationship to God, Man becomes the Expression of God on earth. In the
beginning, Divine Man was the Expression of God on earth. The negative
aspect of Man listened to the whisperings of the serpent and thought to be as God. Man is now being restored to
his position as the Expression of God on earth. That process of mind and
feeling reaction, by reason of which the fall took place, was based upon a
desire to be as God, not of God. There is a great distinction, a great
difference, and the result brought forth a great gulf between the two.
Human beings today are still inclined to function
in the same manner that originally produced the fall. Many human beings try to
be as God without being willing to
be of God. This understanding of the
fall, this understanding of the processes of eating of the fruit of the tree of
knowledge of good and evil, as it continues down to this present day, provides
us with the Key to the Restoration. Man fell—and man must let himself be lifted
up. Man, by evil reaction, was removed out of his place—man, by right Response,
is restored to his place. The steps of fulfilment, the processes of
accomplishment, by which the Restoration takes place, were revealed on earth by
Jesus Christ, our LORD and our KING, and those who truly follow Him must take
those steps in the Way. They must see and recognize and rejoice in the Truth
and the beauty of the Truth. They must follow Him in the Life—man must be restored
to the position of being the Expression of God on earth.
Man is positive and negative in his aspects of
Being. The negative aspect initiated the cycle of the fall. The negative aspect
must stand in the Focalization of the return to the Divine Estate. The Mansions
of our God, though they have been so long unused by men and women, have been
kept in perfect condition. Though thousands of years have passed, and though
cycles of disintegration and decay have worked out in this world, those
Mansions are Eternal. They are as beautiful as in the day they were first
brought forth. They are as complete in manifestation as the response of man will
allow. We recognize the essential requirement of Divine Manhood on earth, that
the true Nobility of Being may find positive expression in manifestation on
earth. Likewise, Divine Womanhood is essential on earth. What is Divine
Womanhood?
Before we undertake to answer this question, let us
first give further consideration to the question, “What is Divine Manhood on
earth?” We recognize, according to the Law and the Principles of Being, that
all manifest things are established within the scope of specific Focalizations. A specific Focalization provides
the Center for all things that manifest in relationship to that focalization,
and provides the Divinely ordained means of control with respect to all
formations in the base of that particular Creative Triangle. As all things were
brought forth by the use of the Creative Triangle in the Creative Cycle, so are
all things maintained in Being by reason of the Creative Triangles through
which they were brought forth.
We have, for instance, spoken of the Life Ray that
relates to the vegetable kingdom, and we have recognized that all the different
types of vegetation on earth have a specific Focalization in the Currents of
Reality which provides the connecting link between the visible and the
invisible. On the surface of the earth we see the forms of these things. These
forms constitute the base of the Triangle and all that is contained therein is
held within the scope of that particular Focalization. The same is true in the
animal kingdom. However, it is not needful that we undertake to understand
these things beyond a point of recognition of the Principles involved. Insofar
as man is concerned, there is a recognition that the absolute focus of all
Being, whether of God Beings or of man, in the Whole Holy World, is established
for this world in the LORD of Lords and KING of Kings. There is no Being in the
Whole Holy World, visible or invisible who does not properly come within the
range of that specific Focalization, and any Being that attempts to function on
earth without respect to that Focalization is violating the Principles of
Being, and begins to move toward death. That which finds manifestation within this
Creative Triangle which does not harmonize with the principles of Being in the
Creative Triangle is, of necessity, excluded therefrom in season. Only that
which correlates with the Triangle, and the principles established therein, can
find permanency of Being.
At the Apex of this Triangle we have the manifestation
of Jesus Christ, the LORD of Lords and KING of Kings. We recognize that, insofar
as manifest Formation is concerned, there is likewise an apex of the Triangle
of manifest Being. That Apex provides in manifest Form complete representation
of that which is invisible to the human eye, and, insofar as the manifest world
is concerned, there cannot be any proper division between the manifest Focalization
and that Inner Reality and Supreme Focalization which is represented thereby.
Man is positive and negative in his manifestation
of Being. The positive aspect provides the Force of Function. The negative
aspect provides the Response of Function. The Supreme Manifest Focalization of
Positive Being must necessarily be that which dominates all that focalizes
therein. If there is not a dominant Vibration, then there is no Focalization.
When there is a dominant vibration which provides a true Focalization, it
becomes evident that all things harmonious to the manifestation of Reality on
earth must correlate with that dominant Focalization. It is the nature of the
positive aspect of Being to provide the dominant factor of life expression. When
there are human tendencies to resist the acceptance of the dominant vibration
made manifest in Focalization, conflicts develop, and that dominant note in
Reality cannot be moved out of its place—therefore, that which contends against
that dominant note in Reality is moved out of its place. It is the function of
the Law. When we see and recognize the operation of the Law as it manifests
with respect to the Focalizations of Being, it is easier to recognize the
principles of Reality as they relate to individual human beings.
The dominant Focalization of the manifest
expression of Reality on earth provides the Center with respect to a
re-establishment on earth of Divine Manhood. Jesus Christ revealed Divine
Manhood on earth, but He did not require that any one individual should, alone
and unaided, make manifest all phases of Being, aspects of Expression in
Reality, essential to Divine Manhood. Although He did it, He did not require
that it should be individually done by all those who should follow after. He
established the Laws and Principles of Being by which the One Body should
permit the manifestation of true Divine Manhood and Divine Womanhood. It was
enough that He revealed Divine Manhood on earth and completed the Cycle which established
in manifestation a revelation of the principles involved. It remained for those
who would follow after to complete the picture and to allow fulfilment. He, as
the Supreme Focalization of Being in the Whole Holy World, contained within Himself
the Essence of the Whole, and He made that Focalized Essence manifest, so that
those who would walk in the Way according to the Truth, and live the Life,
should have a true Center around which they might move in establishing the manifestation
of the fulness of Being on earth.
Until every man, woman and child on the face of the
earth is included in that One Body, or perfectly correlated therewith, there
cannot possibly be a full, complete and entirely adequate manifestation of
Deity on earth in relationship to the necessities of function in the whole
world. When every man, woman and child upon the face of the earth is perfectly
coordinated in, or with, the One Christ Body, the machinery necessary to the
adequate manifestation of Deity on earth in relationship to the rest of
Creation will have been established. That is the fulfilment toward which we are
moving. We cannot begin with that Fulfilment. We must begin with that seed
which is the Focus of Reality made manifest which shall, in season, like the
Stone cut out without hands in the Vision, grew and fill the whole earth.
When the Positive Aspect of Being made manifest
provides the keynote for the Wholeness of Being, it is evident that those who
wish to correlate in Reality must Respond to and accept that dominant Focalization.
There is no such thing as a Focalization without a dominant vibration which
functions in relationship to all that is Focalized. Those who refuse to accept
a dominant Vibration and think to maintain a segregated expression of some
dominant nature in relationship to themselves are doing exactly the same thing that
produced the fall in the first place. They are trying to be as God without being willing to be of God. They are trying to eat of the
fruit a the tree of knowledge of good and evil according to their own concepts
without respect to the Cosmic Plan. Only that Focalization of Being which
provides the dominant vibration by which the fulness of Reality may manifest,
is capable of determining the correct application of the principles that are involved.
Either there is acceptance of Reality or there is
not. Either the individual is willing to be of God on earth, or he is not. If he tries to be as God and to determine his
own course according to his own idea, the sentence of death rests upon him,
even as it was written in the beginning: “In the day, or life cycle, in which
thou shalt eat thereof, thou shalt surely die”. From those human beings who
stop eating of the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, and begin
to accept the dominant Focalization of Being which the Lord has established on
earth, so that they cease trying to be as God, and are willing to participate
in that Expression of Being that is of God, the curse of death is removed, and
for all such there is the promise of Life.
These are key points in relationship to the
Restoration. There is, then, a central Dominant Point of manifest Being and
Expression provided in the Postive Aspect, around which the formation of Divine
Manhood begins to take place in manifest form. That manifestation of Divine
Manhood, correlated to the Center, is made up of many members. It is the
Positive phase of the one Christ Body on earth. The One Christ Body on earth
cannot be either just Positive or just Negative. If there is a Body, it must have
within itself its points of polarity—Positive and Negative. The manifestation
of Divine Manhood on earth, in its Focalization and in its Formation through
many members, is not enough to allow the Restoration, no matter how perfect
that manifestation of Divine Manhood might be. There is, also, the necessity
that there be the manifestation of Divine Womanhood—but no one woman is
required, by and of herself alone, to reveal in manifest form all the aspects
and phases and functions of Divine Womanhood.
The Negative Aspect of the One Christ Body is made
up of many members. That manifestation of Divine Womanhood properly has a point
of Focalization provided of the Lord. In conjunction with that Focalization,
there are drawn into a coordinated, balanced, symmetrical Formation the many
members, that, all functioning in Oneness according to the Divine Plan, may
reveal on earth the Perfection of Divine Womanhood. The Perfection of Divine Womanhood
on earth in actual manifestation and consistent function is absolutely requisite
to the Restoration. Without that Focalization there is no means by which the Positive
Expression of reality, no matter how it may be made manifest, can be caused to have
true, effective and lasting meaning to the Whole of creation.
Divine Womanhood provides the supreme Focalization
of manifest Creation. Divine Manhood provides the focalized Expression of Deity
into the earth. The manifestation of Divine Manhood would be a manifestation of
Deity on earth but that manifestation of Deity would be as meaningless as
invisible Deity is to the self-active world, unless there was a point of connection,
a means of unification between Creator and Creation. Therefore, as Jesus Christ
provided the Absolute Focalization of Deity on earth, and as the continuing Cycle
provides the manifestation of Deity on earth through the Positive Aspects of
the One Christ Body, so must there be, if these things are to have meaning in
the true sense, a manifestation of the Negative Aspect of the One Body, so that
there may be, not only a manifestation of the Lamb, that is, the Christ Body in
its positive aspect, but the Lamb's Wife or His Bride—the manifestation of
Divine Womanhood on earth.
If any one woman were required to manifest all
phases and factors and functions of Divine Womanhood at the present time, with
the world as it is, the world would have no hope. The positive aspect of Deity,
to various degrees, has been made manifest on earth many, many times but,
because there was no adequate Focalization of Divine Womanhood on earth, or no
adequate Focalization came into being in relationship thereto, the meaning of
these revelations of Deity on earth has been comparatively small. The effect in
relationship to the world as a whole has not continued in the sense of Divine
Control being established in the lives and the affairs of men. The one factor that
Has never before come into manifestation, which is absolutely essential to the
fulfilment of our Goal, is the manifestation of an adequate Focalization of
Divine Womanhood on earth. Without that Focalization, the positive Aspect may
be able to accomplish a certain amount of good
which may influence the world to some degree, but it cannot bring about the
Restoration. Therefore, the Way to the Salvation of man rests in the Negative
Aspect of man. The fulfilment of that toward which we are moving depends upon
an adequate Focalization of Divine Womanhood on earth. In relationship to that,
Responsive women should recognize that woman was, actually, the cause, or
provided the initial step of the fall in the beginning.
It has been said that woman has carried the brunt of
the sufferings of this world. Since she is primarily of the feeling realm, that
is no doubt so, but she brought it on herself through deliberate disobedience
to God, and she has utterly refused to allow God to change that condition. Actually,
all of the sufferings which women have endured, they nave brought upon
themselves, and hugged to themselves, and refused to be separated from those sufferings. In the face of
such facts, no woman with any recognition of the Principles of Reality can
properly be overly concerned about immediate personal fulfilments. If there
cannot be found upon the face of the earth a sufficient number of women to coordinate
unselfishly for the Restoration of mankind, than those who have had the opportunity
with the rest of womanhood must continue to suffer.
Usually, concern about suffering on earth has been
with respect to the women and the children. Little thought has been ever been
given to the sufferings of men—and it is just as well. I do not think that the
men are concerned about having their sufferings recognized. That makes some of
the women laugh. Nevertheless, the whole record shows that much less consideration
has been given to the sufferings of men than to the sufferings of women Men
have always been ready to move into the battlefield to suffer whatever may be
necessary to protect their homes and their children and their women. The
sufferings of men have primarily been on the basis of undertaking to make it
possible to keep their womenfolks from suffering; but the fact is that, in the
world, the women love to suffer, and they imagine that if they did not suffer
they would not be women. So, of all things, they have clung most tenaciously to
their sufferings.
God offers a way of release, but the true
manifestation of a Focalization of Divine Womanhood requires that there be found,
and drawn together, and harmonized correctly according to the laws of Being, a
sufficient number of women who are unselfish, who are willing to stop thinking
about themselves, who are willing to stop trying to get something for
themselves, who are willing to give themselves utterly and fully to the Lord,
to allow a beginning of manifestation to take place, whereupon other women will
surely be found to cause that Body to expand and grow until the Negative Aspect
of Man on earth is sufficient to allow the Expression of Deity to have meaning—not
only to all the people of the world, but to all the creatures of the world and
to the whole vegetable kingdom—in other words, to all created things on earth.
This does little more than introduce the subject of
Divine Womanhood, but it establishes points of Truth which must be considered,
recognized and accepted in order to allow mankind to find that Fulfilment which
is ordained according to God’s Plan on earth. The essential beginnings to the
manifestation of Divine Womanhood on earth have been made. That beginning is an
established, manifest fact. The opportunities that are afforded whereby the
essential members of that One Body of Divine Womanhood may be drawn together
and established in true coordination and adequate function, has been provided.
The Way is open, that Fulfilment may be realized for all who are willing to accept
the Way, the Truth and the life, that they may be truly of God instead of trying to be as
God.
Heavenly Father, we thank Thee that it is so, and
that we have the blessed privilege of letting Thy Kingdom come, of letting Thy
Will be done on earth as it is in Heaven, for Thine is the kingdom and the
Power and the Glory forever. Aum-en.
