Let human minds and hearts be still, yielded and open to the spirit of the living God. You hear these words, but you are not present merely to hear them. As angels we speak them together. I might say that if you merely hear them, hear the words, you are not with me; and if you are not with me you are against me.
Let minds and hearts be still, those that are present in this Dome, and consequently the invitation is extended, to the extent that it is accepted here, to all people everywhere, to all the human minds and hearts the world around. Let these minds and hearts here present, being still, be filled with the golden substance of love. Let human thinking cease. Let human emotions be still. Let minds and hearts, being filled with this golden, peaceful substance of love, consequently be the gates of heaven, the gates through which the angels of heaven may come into the earth. In this, minds and hearts may experience a reversal of polarity. They are no longer trying to achieve anything, certainly not to get anything. Let minds and hearts be still. Then the angels of heaven may be present and known by human minds and hearts. Be still and know that I am God, revealed in experience of mind and heart by the one I am.
Human minds and hearts are indeed designed as the gate of heaven, through which the hosts of heaven may come into the earth. They have been a barrier to this, filled with their own thinking and their own emotions—no gate of heaven, no angels in experience. But now we hear the command in this setting: Let mind and heart be still. Let them be filled with the golden substance of love, because there has been repentance from human thinking and human emotion; these are the character of human nature. Repentance, that human nature has been allowed to occupy our own hearts and minds, is required of those hearts and minds. Let heart and mind be still. Let them be filled with the golden substance of love. Let them, consequently, be the gate of heaven. Let the angel who I am come forth to be known by heart and mind.
Let each heart and mind say, “Forgive me, Father, for I have not known what I was doing.” Each heart and mind may know now, in this moment, that what they have been doing has wreaked havoc in the world. Now, being still, yielded and opened to receive and be filled with the golden substance of love, the gate of heaven opens and the one I am comes forth, in the vivid awareness that, as the Psalmist put it, “The earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.” The hosts of heaven may indeed emerge through these yielded and still minds and hearts. Who shall be the ones who permit this to happen? Who shall be the ones, in their human arrogance and rebelliousness, to continue to prevent it? This indeed shall be revealed.
But here, surely, there are minds and hearts who yield, repent, receive the golden substance of love, and consequently come to know the truth. As the truth is known because the angel is present and in expression, the fantasy of the human-nature world becomes obvious. The angels of heaven know that they come into the world through human minds and hearts and bodies, because this is the only means by which it can be done. There is no other gate but mankind; a gate that, as angels, we recognize has been so firmly closed. But unless there are those human minds and hearts that say genuinely, in deep humility and repentance, “Forgive me, Father, for heretofore I have not known, clearly at least, what I have been doing,” the gate of heaven cannot be opened.
Is there anything more important than that this gate should be opened? The angel of heaven, and heaven itself, have been excluded from the earth, and because of that exclusion the state of affairs on earth is the way it is. Human minds and hearts are totally responsible for this state of affairs. “Forgive me, Father, for I have not known what I was doing, but now I begin to know. And because I begin to know what I have been doing I repent, and yield in stillness to receive the golden substance of love.” Be still and know what it is that is thus received. I am the angel who may be in expression on earth, as the mind and the heart of my physical form yield to me. We see the world around us in chaos and disintegration. We see the very planet itself lonely and bereft, longing to come unto the focus of creative spirit, unto me as I am. And, again, I am not speaking to you—if that is all you know, you know nothing—but you are speaking with me. I am present on earth because of this physical body with mind and heart. Mind and heart have stood as a barrier, but now exhibit some willingness to yield, in deep repentance and humility, from their arrogance and rebelliousness heretofore. So, as an angel I speak, and you as angels speak: I am the one who is present on earth in this form, individually speaking and all together, having heard the cry of the earth, the planet itself, and the world which is present, surrounding the planet. I have heard the cry: “Let me come again to you, you the angel in heaven.”
But, rather naturally, the earth, the world, is somewhat hesitant. These have been betrayed by human beings for countless centuries, generation after generation. There was always the willingness, the longing, of the earth and the world—except the world of human beings—to come again to heaven. But this barrier, this human barrier, has stood in between. Now, somewhere in this barrier of human nature, a few hearts and minds are revealing a willingness to yield, to repent, to be still, to relinquish all their supposedly wise thinking and their supposedly important emotions, that they may indeed, in a sense at least, shrivel down to nothing and provide space for heaven, space for the angel who is still present in human form, as evidenced by the fact of life itself. Let there be repentance and yielding and stillness, before the opportunity that life provides is gone. These words are spoken to the hearts and minds of all mankind, but particularly the hearts and minds that are here present.
Yielding and repenting and being still, letting the golden substance of love flood in, the gate of heaven opens, and it is known that I am present. There is only one who has the right to speak the words, I am. That one is not the self of human nature. The human-nature self continually may be said to take the name of the Lord in vain, because all people are inclined to say, I am, usually qualified with some subsequent words. But I am is the name of the Lord, not the name of any human self. What arrogance there has been, in our own experience, obviously in the experience of people everywhere. But that's their experience; what is ours? I am present, and when my mind and heart are willing to yield and be still, to repent, to be open, I come forth. My thinking, my ways, are as the heavens, higher than the earth and human thought and ways. Let human thought and ways vanish from the face of the earth, that my thought and my way may be known by human hearts and minds once more. I am come, in each human form and in all human forms, that I might bring life and bring it more abundantly. But human minds and hearts have been hooked to death, addicted to death and all the qualities and characteristics of human nature which bring it.
Be still, and know that I am present. My word is truth, my word is life. The earth, the world—all but the human world—long to come again to participate delightedly in the one creative process. They long to come again to the one who provides the focus of spirit for this creative process as it relates to this earth and this world. There is angelic understanding that there would be some hesitancy on the part of the earth and the world—what I suppose human beings would call the natural world, which excludes human beings entirely—to come in response to this invitation, because they have become so accustomed to hearing a false invitation, which has always inevitably resulted in rape and destructiveness. Human nature demands the earth to serve human nature, and the world to serve human nature. Repent!—not by trying to do something about it in human nature, as so many struggle to do, good people no doubt, to try to restore some sort of balance to what is occurring on earth. It can't be done by human nature, because human nature itself is out of balance.
So, always, the word comes: Yield and be still (a creative command, if you will, offered to every human mind and heart present on earth), that you may come to know me and know that the earth is mine, the world is mine, all is mine. That is true when the words are spoken by the angel in heaven through a still human mind, heart and body. This invitation is then extended to the natural world and to the earth, to the planet itself: Come home. And in these days there is a sensing on the part of the angel, through mind and heart, that the earth and the natural world are beginning to hear what it is that is being extended in invitation. But it's too much to believe! It has been so long that this state of aloneness and loneliness has been in effect because there was no man on earth, just a collection of animalistic creatures who have destroyed almost all semblance of man.
Be still, mind and heart. Be still and receive the golden substance of love. Be still and know that I am present. I am present in each little human earth and world, but being present there I am present in the whole of the planet earth and in the whole of the natural world. And I come forth to live and be on earth, providing all that is necessary and possible to let the gates of heaven be opened everywhere in mankind, so that the hosts of heaven may come into the earth and so that the whole population, insofar as man is concerned, is an angelic one. This, we have come to know, through our own experience of the coming forth, is what is happening. And it shall be finished.
The quote has come down to us out of the past as having been spoken by the One called Jesus on earth, “I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do.” The fact was established back then. It is now emerging to prove itself out, to prove that He spoke the truth amongst other things. Of course that proof is only of value to those who didn't think He spoke the truth. He knew what it was He said, and why He said it; and as the angelic experience begins to flood human hearts and minds, that knowing comes too. The truth is known, and all this fantasy is seen as nothing. The fantasy of this present human state is seen as nothing, just a mist which is blown away speedily by the rising of the sun, the coming forth of the hosts of heaven into the earth.
We share some understanding of this. Why? Because there has been some coming forth. To that extent we know, maybe not fully as yet, because there hasn't been the fulness of the coming forth. But let it continue. As there is constant repentance and yielding of mind and heart there is an openness to receive the golden substance of love; and that is very real. Only where that is present can it be said that the light is shining. “Let your light so shine.” And I heard tell, also, of something or other referred to as Emissaries of Divine Light! There is no such light without mind and heart being filled with the golden substance of love, and occupied by the one I angelically am.
This morning we have had opportunity to participate in this creative process by which the hosts of heaven—rather small in number insofar as those present in this Chapel are concerned—may in fact come forth. It's not something to be dreamt about or thought about: “Well is it true, or isn't it true?” Who knows? The only way to know is to let it happen; otherwise one can have beliefs pro and con. They mean nothing! Alone does the truth have meaning. That is the fact of the matter, which one is only capable of experiencing for oneself. You can't hand it to anybody else, and nobody else can hand it to you. It must happen in the way that it happens; the creative process works this way. And human minds and hearts and bodies are designed to accommodate the angel of heaven; in fact they already do. But, for millennia, while accommodating the angels of heaven the evidence of that fact has been absent, because minds and hearts have been closed and busy with their own damned business. And it is damned! There isn't anything you can do on the basis of human nature which has the slightest value in the end. That should be obvious to anyone. It should have been obvious in every generation.
But still there is a persistence of plugging away with human nature to get things done the way human nature thinks they should be done; and hence, disaster—perhaps a final disaster close at hand. But even in the midst of that it may be said, “I am come. I am present.” That's something that has to be proven out, of course, by each one. It certainly means human nature gets put on the spot. There can be no more of the old controls allowed to operate in human expression: the control of emotion, the control of intellectual thoughts and ideas, no matter how good and exemplary they may seem. That is the control of human nature. That is the control of the devil. It's been rampant on earth everywhere, through everybody. Because of this, most people have never seen it, because it's what they are. But now there begins to be an emergence, a yielding, a repentance, a willingness to be forgiven and to receive the golden substance of love into mind and heart, that that may be all that is present. That is the evidence of the angel, the one of whom it may be said, humanly speaking, I am. Here is the way, the truth, and the life. I am the way, the truth, and the life. These words may be spoken easily through a still mind and heart, which accommodate the expression, the living Word of the one I am.
Lillian Exeter — Martin, my Word is, I am, because I am living, and I dare—I dare!—because there has been emergence of the angel, to come near unto you and to be with you. So I actually express that invitation, all of us express that invitation to all, “Come near unto us,” in these days.
Lord Exeter — And the earth, and the natural world, longs to do just that. But at the moment there seems to be only a little crack to which to come. Let the gate be flung wide open, that all may come again into the oneness made possible by the union of heaven and earth, the angel of God and the human being.
