Almighty  God

“Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.” The will of God is done in heaven, in the pneumatomenal world. When man is in place what occurs in heaven instantly occurs in earth. The human view of God's will has tended to be a second-hand concept. If it is done in heaven, someone needs to find out about it so that at some later date it may be instituted on earth. This idea is partly consequent upon the fact that with man out of place what happens in heaven takes some time to show up on earth, and when it does show up on earth it has been so thoroughly mutilated and distorted that the heavenly original is scarcely discernible at all. The impact of what occurs in heaven upon man is considerably delayed because of his insensitivity, his coarseness, his uncomprehendingness. Eventually a little of it gets through subconsciously and it hits him. He reacts to it, and the result is the action of man on earth. While the heavenly original was intelligent, purposeful, and had meaning, by the time it comes out on earth, at least what there is left of it, it may be a century or two late and an entirely different thing altogether. There has been this lag between the heavenly doing and the earthly result consequent upon man's delayed reaction to the heavenly doing. So perhaps it is because of this that the idea of letting God's will be done on earth has merely assumed second-hand proportions.

It is possible to examine earthly events in order to trace them back to the heavenly original, not that very much would be gained by such an undertaking, because it's all several centuries out-dated. But if we see that the things that are occurring in the external sense in the phenomenal world are of this nature, then again it emphasizes the utter futility and nonsense of trying to deal with the phenomena. Human beings rationalize what they do, but we have already become aware of the fact that what they do springs from something out of the past, something that erupts out of the subconscious mind for instance. Now we may begin to see that while there was a heavenly impact of some kind, the earthly result through man has become a garbled portrayal of what is long out-dated. All the grandiose efforts of human beings today are of this nature. The activities of men result from something established in heaven in the past but reacted to in a disorderly way by unpolarized man.

I have pointed to the larger field of world events, but exactly the same thing is true from the standpoint of personal experience in the little things of life. The Plan of God, the Heavenly Plan, is designed so as to bring this lagging state of affairs up to date. The evidence of this being done was spoken of as the shortening of the days. There is a thinning out of the dense cloud that has surrounded man, so that the heavenly impact penetrates more quickly and the reaction consequently comes more quickly. The delay between the original action and the reaction is not quite so lengthy; there is not so much of a lag as there has been in centuries past. We ourselves can see something of the change in this regard on the basis of our own experience; for we have been participating, to whatever degree, both unconsciously and to some extent consciously in the heavenly action, what is being done in heaven. Our association with this has permitted us to share a much more immediate experience than has been true in the general sense for most people. We have a keener awareness of what is happening in the heavenly sense, closer to the time that it happens, than most people do. And in the case of most the awareness merely is of the reaction that more or less automatically occurs in the person according to his polarity, according to his response.

We have noted various expressions that have been used from the standpoint of our ministry that are being reflected by people who have no awareness of our ministry in the world. We come across these things more frequently these days. Those who express such things presumably have no real consciousness of where they originated, any more than we have tended to have with respect to our expressions, as to where they originated. They originate in heaven, in the pneumatomenal world, and have been given the opportunity to take form on the basis of response rather than reaction.

Where there is response it very rapidly becomes an instantaneous thing. Where there is reaction it tends to be delayed because of the wrong polarity in those concerned. But the faster the reaction appears, the more destructive the experience. As the days are shortened and quicker reaction occurs to what is being done in heaven, the destructiveness of this becomes increasingly apparent.

We look around us in the world and we find destructiveness of all kinds, recently in the form of murders and kidnappings and such, taking form in the experience of the most unlikely people. In examining such things, or any other realm of destructiveness, the minds of the world are applied to try to find some way of handling the situation. Nowadays we are told that we are going to have to live with it. I'm quite sure that's true, because the destructiveness is not going to get any less as the days are shortened.

The lag is reduced, and the intensity of destruction is increased, therefore, wherever there is reaction. It can be easily seen how futile and indeed ridiculous it is to wrestle with the destructiveness, because this destructiveness is merely a reaction to something else. This something else is happening and there is nothing that anyone can do to stop it happening. God's will is done in heaven; the happening occurs in heaven. If the polarity is wrong the individual will react, and that reaction will be a destructive experience. There is nothing that can be done in the external sense to stop it being a destructive experience. The only way the external change could come, so that there might be a creative experience, is for reaction to change to response.

There is nothing wrong with what is being done in heaven; it's God's will, after all. But the result of God's will being done in heaven has tended to be destruction on earth simply because man was out of place, didn't know what was happening, hadn't a clue. Things were triggered in him by what was done in heaven, and he reacted and translated them according to his concept on earth. Now his concept on earth might have seemed to him to be a very worthwhile thing: this was good; this was a pleasing experience. But regardless of his judgment it proves to be a destructive experience because it was based in reaction. It was not based in response.

“Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.” The only way that this is possible is through response, through a willingness to let it be that way regardless of anything that may be felt on earth, because all the things that are happening on earth are simply the lagging results of impacts out of heaven that eventually penetrate sufficiently to hit people on earth. When they are hit they react, and so it is all translated in this destructive fashion.

Something that at the point of origination is creative and perfect becomes something terrible and tragic on earth, both in the larger sense and of course in the smaller, individual sense. To the extent that anyone begins to open up in yielded response to God, the gap between lagging reaction and instantaneous response begins to close, so that there may be a participation in the heavenly action now. The heavenly action now will for the most part produce results in the experience of human beings in the world tomorrow—not necessarily in the next twenty-four hours, but maybe next week, next month, next year, depending on how rapidly this lagging process is being dissipated. All this is resulting from what is happening in heaven.

God's will is done in heaven, and the gap is closing. When it reaches the point where it is in exact alignment, that's it!—instantaneous destruction for reaction and instantaneous revelation of God's will on earth through response. All the things in our experience in the external sense that come to us day by day—all of them—are the result of heavenly action in the past. They are distorted and disordered, because they have come into the world through distorted and disordered people on the basis of human reaction. Our responsibility when these things come to us is not to judge them and say with respect to some, “This is most displeasing; I don't like it; let me escape!” or, “This is most delightful; I do like it; let me grab hold of it!”

The things that are appearing in the external sense are old stuff. They are absolutely meaningless, all of them, until someone who is letting God's will be done in earth as it is in heaven updates them. This is what we are here to do: to let the things which come to us be the means by which God's will can be done in earth now, as it is being done in heaven now. Then the thing is updated. When we do that we find that the things we handle are not what we thought they were. They are transformed by the creative action of God's will which is allowed to work in the earth now, as it is in heaven.

This brings everything up to date

within the range of our own field of responsibility.

What a lot of foolish nonsense has gone on, and goes on, because the things that occur in experience day by day are translated as though they were meaningful of themselves! Anything of this nature only becomes meaningful in its transformed state when there is someone present in whom heaven and earth are one. Then whatever it is that comes to such a person is updated and it ceases to be what it was. It becomes something new. "Behold, I make all things new." The key in all of this of course centers in that familiar word “response”. The measure of response determines the measure of creativeness. The measure of reaction, which is a rejection of what is being done in heaven in the moment, is the measure of destructiveness. Properly speaking, emphasis is placed upon the idea conveyed through the words, “Glory to God in the Highest.” Too many get hung up on the following words, “On earth peace, good will toward men.”

Glory to God in the Highest

My Spirit To Yours Dear Brother, Dear Sister

My  Spirit  To  Yours  Dear  Brother,  Dear  Sister

David Barnes  March 31, 2024  Salmon Arm, B.C.

We leave behind religious conditioning that surrounds Easter commemorations, and move into a New Heaven that imbues our meditations with life and vitality, because of the presence of the Sons and Daughters of God right here right now. And thus everything is brought up to date, in the present moment of resurrection and possibility for the Christ Body. We remove the grave clothes, fold them carefully and leave them in the darkened place, and we move out into the Garden experience that is available to everybody who attunes to the spirit moving in the New Heaven.

When I use the term Christ Body I mean qualities of spirit that are being expressed through human beings—human forms with capacities of consciousness that each God Being created for a specific purpose, as part of the Archangelic Body and purpose. This, now emerging as the Christ Body, is a vehicle through which Creator Beings express and create, bringing the government of the spirit into the world.

I will read a few verses from a poem by Walt Whitman titled, “To Him That Was Crucified”. I'm not wrapped up in the crucifixion story at Easter; but I am very interested in what occurred spiritually at that time, when a seed was planted in the Garden consciousness, and over time it grew and became something quite different than the original seed itself. Now, we are aware that it is our responsibility to tend and keep the Garden, and let the planting flourish under our hand. Here is what Walt Whitman had to say about 150 years ago in a poem that is a direct message addressed to Jesus the Christ. He begins, “My spirit to yours dear brother”.

     “My spirit to yours dear brother,

     Do not mind because many sounding your name do not understand you,

     I do not sound your name, but I understand you,

     I specify you with joy O my comrade to salute you, and to salute those who are with you, before and since, and those to come also,

     That we all labor together transmitting the same charge and succession …

     We walk silent among disputes and assertions, but reject not the disputers nor any thing that is asserted,

     We hear the bawling and din, we are reach'd at by divisions, jealousies, recriminations on every side,

     They close peremptorily upon us to surround us, my comrade,

     Yet we walk unheld, free, the whole earth over, journeying up and down

     till we make our ineffaceable mark upon time and the diverse eras,

     Till we saturate time and eras, that the men and women of races, ages to come, may prove brethren and lovers as we are.”

Here is the voice of one speaking to an intimate spiritual comrade, a friend who was as immediately present to him in that moment as if he had been back there 1900 years ago with the Master Jesus. But I particularly want to emphasize two things. First: “Do not mind because many sounding your name do not understand you. I do not sound your name, but I understand you.” The Name—recognizing that we are in heaven and on Holy Ground, we could say that the Name is the Body of the Son of God. We are “in the Name”. We are in the Body of the Son. We are in the Body of the Sun, that great orb that centers this solar system; and as human beings we are in the Body of the Son—the Body of the God Being within, and the Body of the Archangelic Son. Second: Whitman expressed, “My spirit to yours dear brother.” I could say that to each of you, in thanksgiving for what you bring of your own spirit: “My spirit to yours dear brother, dear sister.” I could say that to Stewart or to John, recognizing the fine stature and largess of spirit: “My spirit to yours dear brother.” Or I could say to Anne, “My spirit to yours dear sister.” We may not go about speaking those words out loud to each other, but walking on Holy Ground we acknowledge that, really, it is always so. And there are other phrases too, that we might use in the Body of the Son. Uranda mentioned that his preferred term to use, when speaking of the God Being, would be, “My Prince.”

When we move in a sacred atmosphere together, conscious of being on Holy Ground, and aware of the Burning Bush at the Core of the Body of the Son of God—the orb of the Sun is a symbol of the burning bush—there is opportunity for holy greeting, sacred interchange and acknowledgment, before we get down to business, the Father's business. Uranda gave a beautiful service in 1954 titled, “Co-owner In The Father's Business.” In the Body of the Son we are Sons and Daughters in our Divine human beingness, and from the standpoint of the God Being we are Lords of our creation, male and female, Lords who love the design of being that is evident in the clarity of the New Heaven and the New Earth that we know. We live in this Body of the Sun at the level of the outer world; but we also live in the Body of the Son that is the formation of God Beings coming into differentiated manifestation of the design in heaven, revealed through you and me and others.

I watch the news and the public affairs programs on the internet and on TV. I've been surprised and delighted to see and hear the radiance beginning to emerge through many of those who are reading the news, and many who are being interviewed. As well, I can see the brutality and the destructiveness, and the inability to recognize the sanctity of life, and to say in attitude, “My spirit to yours dear brother, dear sister.” But I have been noting how the radiance is coming through many in the Body of God—for example, our head CBC news anchor, in whom there is such an abundance of competence and stability, compassion and deep care. It pours out of her and through the screen, and I say, “My spirit to yours dear sister.” She is just one among many. I mention this because here is evidence of what is taking place in the Body of the Son—not what is taking place in the tomb, but evidence of those beginning to emerge into the Garden experience.

A broader spectrum of representation is evident in this emerging New Nation, this part of the Body of God that is the focus of Son consciousness. It isn't visible to the same degree in and through each member in the exactly same way that it may be present in the conscious mind and heart of those who provide that focus, but the radiance of it permeates the Whole Body—those who are somehow catalyzed into agreement with its spirit, finding some measure of union with it. It is easy to see that the illumination of the Whole Body is showing, catalyzed by the illumination taking place in the focus pattern lodged in the Head of the One Body emerging on earth. And that is us in this service pattern; that is us in the Tone of Life service pattern; that is us through all the attunement gatherings; that is us and others. We have been called to this time, called to recognize and know, called to let the radiance of the Light of the City in the Son—and the City in the Sun—increase here on earth; not so much through increasing numbers of people, but through enlarging and amplifying the radiance of those who already know that this is why I am here.

We are the Holy City. Angels incarnate are a Holy City in the Son; the Body of the Son as it relates to this world—all of humanity being resurrected and moving in this restoration cycle—is a Radiant City in a larger Body of the Son. And so each of us can say, “I am a Holy City within a Greater City, within the Body of the Son”—the Body of the Son of God, and the Body of the Sun of the whole Solar Entity.

There are many things that could be considered in relationship to the design as we begin to discover it emerging in our own consciousness. It relates to our own specific purpose for being here; and no one can bring what the other one brings. There may be overlap in some who are working together within specific groupings of angels in the Body, but each of us brings something quite unique. The whole Body needs to be filled out, so that there is a functioning Being and Body here.

The Bhagavad Gita speaks about the nine gateways of the body; gateways for radiance and for response, gateways for assimilation and gateways for elimination. There are also three other primary gateways, related to the consciousness of the mental level, the heart or emotional level, and the spiritual expression level, in their responsive and radiant aspects. So we have twelve primary gateways in the Body of the Son of God, and the thirteenth is the Son Himself, the Wonderful One Within, who created the Body with its twelve gateways for the reception and release of spirit in accord with the purposes of the Father. And of course, in the Body we have seven other primary gateways, representing the Archangelic focal points that are present in the City in the Son. So we have the seven and the twelve in our individual makeup, and in the makeup of the developing Body of the Son of God. All these things begin to dawn on us.

I am sharing some of what I am becoming aware of, flooding into consciousness through this crossover point, this human being; and each one of us will have different things coming into consciousness from On High, thoughts and ideas that relate to our specific responsibility; and ways will naturally appear to blend with other members of the One Body who share related fields of function. This is happening. The little tribulations that arise between us from time to time are no big deal really. The development of this Body is well underway! It is not going to disappear. And what appears as points of difference or misunderstanding can quickly dissolve as attention is given in the right place, and we proceed. We will have to make adjustments, but these things that come and go in the purification that we share in this resurrection cycle, these cloudy areas will pass away. And we can help them pass away more quickly—or maybe not. Sometimes it is best to leave them alone for a little bit, and not misinterpret what's going on.

We continue to move in a purification cycle, allowing more of this Body of the Son to come forth and be effective in function through each individual member, and through the whole. And every person, all of the creation—animal, vegetable, mineral; and the crowning creation, the human being—all of it is moving in this one grand restorative cycle, with its purpose being to bring as many as will come into a totally new experience from what has heretofore been known in the state of “fallen man.” Although we are in the world of mixed up, confused and imprisoned human beings, we ourselves do not have to be imprisoned. As Whitman said:

     “Yet we walk unheld, free, the whole earth over, journeying up and down

     till we make our ineffaceable mark upon time and the diverse eras,

     Till we saturate time and eras, that the men and women of races, ages to come, may prove brethren and lovers as we are.”

This is the Word of the Third Sacred School. This is the Word of Emissaries of Divine Light. This is the Word extending from the Temple of Light. This is the sounding of the Tone of Life and Love. It has never been exclusive; even though I know that in my human makeup I've been exclusive in times past. One of the greatest blessings the Master brought throughout His Ministry was a continuous spirit of forgiveness. His last words were, “Father, forgive them.”

That phrase, that Word, is resounding in my soul over this Easter season. “Father, forgive me, for I did not know what I was doing in those moments. My human soul speaks these words directly to the Father of All, and to the Mother of All, for not being the true Son of Father and Mother God—or for not being the true Daughter of Father and Mother God. “Father, Mother, forgive me, for I did not know.” And there is forgiveness for what may yet transgress in the future, as we move onward through the cycles of purification and regeneration together. But the word is, “Father, forgive them”—forgive all those that we can see in the world who slip and slide in the mud of human nature.

And it is so, as we move ahead together. It is One Spirit, One Body, no matter how many formations emerge, formations that are differentiated aspects of this Body, formations that are required to accomplish certain things in the world, through the release of the spirit of this Body. We're in a new time. This is the time for the Sons and Daughters of God in this Body to come forth, and bring what is theirs to bring into the body of mankind, with whom each one has particular connections and responsibilities that maybe others don't know anything about; and don't have to know anything about just yet—but you know that it is so for you. There is One Vine, One Vehicle, One Body differentiated to enfold and serve multiple opportunities that are at hand—and more will come as we use these ones rightly.

This is some of what I feel emerging in the Garden experience—out of the tomb, and into the experience of the Son, who was never in the tomb but is always in the Garden. It is only the human facilities that have been entombed. “Imprisoned Splendor,” Robert Browning called it, the human condition—imprisoned splendor now released from the prison, walking out of the tomb and into the Garden. And so, may these words provide assurance that we are working together no matter what formations we may find ourselves a part of. We each bring the spirit of the angel into the Body just as it is right now. My spirit to yours, dear brother, dear sister. Forgive me my trespasses. I see you and I know you.

“Forgive them Father, their trespasses—this is now my responsibility. My responsibility is to release the spirit of forgiveness, and then the prison doors may open, and people make their choices. We know we've gone in and out in times past; not so much anymore. “My spirit to yours”—to each one here, the ones I'm with right now. “My spirit to your spirit, dear brother, dear sister.” On this Easter day—in this Grand Easter Day of the Ages—where the resurrection and the restoration of the Body of the Son of Father and Mother is happening, and we're a part of that happening. On this Grand Easter day, “My spirit to yours, dear brother, dear sister.”

Gary Courtland-Miles — Greetings Angels, brothers, sisters. Thank you Father for this strengthening, this powerful spirit that has been with us, strengthening us in our Priesthood, our Priesthood that blesses the whole earth and also blesses each other. We bless each other, we lift each other up, we recognize the beauty and radiance of each one. So let us continue to do a new thing, let a new thing be done. Turns out that new thing is that Glory we had in the beginning with Father and Mother God before the foundation of this world. So let us continue to rise up and let it be done. 

My spirit to yours, Dear Brother, Dear Sister

Heavenly Government—Earthly Government

Heavenly  Government — Earthly  Government

Stewart Berger  March 31, 2024  Norwalk, California

It's very special to be together on Easter Sunday to consider the process of resurrection, transformation, transmutation—the experience of Jesus having the victory over death and by reason of what He moved through, making possible this opportunity that we find ourselves in now, to find our union with God, the divine, and to manifest that in all our ways.

I've really been enjoying our recent services, and it seems to me that there is an extra level or dimension of vibrancy and life that you and we are allowing to be brought forth, and it's the love for the LORD that is at the heart of that. The web of connection that we share transcends our human activity, permeates it, and is protective; my image of that connective, energetic material is as a strong and fine yet flexible mesh, and I find it's evidence of greater union between us, which consequently allows the opportunity for greater unified radiation. Martin spoke about this in 1981 in “The Mind That Was in Christ Jesus”: 

“Unified radiation relates to what is experienced in an outward direction. The human mind and heart of all those who are participating in the accommodation of the expression of the spirit of God, of the Word, find themselves associated in that expression. Unified in the radiation, there is an increasing perspective of wholeness and awareness that this which is finding expression of the Word is doing so on the basis of a unified whole. As these various stages consequent upon response of heart and mind are experienced, the nature of the form of one's response changes. It is the response of the heart and mind which should never stop responding, but the experience is different because there is more and more of the Word in expression being accommodated by the heart and mind. As there is movement through these creative stages, attraction, union, unified radiation—what happens at each stage is not left behind but is rather amplified by subsequent changes.”

That's what I've been experiencing in these services. The crossover point where we find our being and which we share is expanded and has greater dimension: it's pretty exciting! 

I work reporting, writing and reading news on an L.A. radio station, which certainly keeps me in touch with what's happening in the world.  Sometimes I see stories about various individuals acting in crazy ways—maybe you do too—and I have a feeling these incidents may increase. I think it's a sign that life is intensifying and certain structures are falling away, and some people don't know how to handle that. In a Temple service given in January, Jae Hyoung Lee said that after a meeting somebody asked, “Is there hope for humanity?” And of course a number of people all over the world wonder about this. Jae Hyoung said there is hope for humanity: “As long as we are in our place and doing our part, I think this world is safe. And as long as the Lord can be in this world through us, and as long as the Lord is in this world, this world is safe. Long ago, the Lord Jesus had to do it all alone. Most of the disciples weren't with him, but now we are here, for the glory of the Lord.” We are here, and it's up to us. About what's happening in the world, various ones have at times felt fear. But remember what Moses said to the Children of Israel as they were being chased by the pharaoh and his gang when the Red Sea parted: Fear not! “Fear not, stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord.” We have much strength, each of us and together, and that provides a foundation.

Maybe you've seen some polls on the U.S. election in November in which a majority of Americans on both sides say they don't want to see the rematch of the two current front-runners for president, and there's tension because of this. One poll asked people how they would describe what they feel about the election, and one of the top words was “dread”. This issue has made me think about heavenly government and earthly government.

In a great service by Martin, he talked about the ordinances of heaven and the ordinances of earth; and how so many people are really caught up in what's going on in the earth but there's a natural control that originates in heaven: through heaven and through us. Martin addressed this in a few different services, and in one he said: “The Priesthood, in the true state, constitute what may be called government. The government of God on earth is extended through the Priesthood.” In another service he said: “We were considering the matter of ministers last Sunday. By the way, ministers is rather a good word because it doesn't confine the experience to what is deemed to be spiritual. Generally speaking it's called religious. There are ministers of religion, but there are also ministers of government.” So the job is to minister—you've been doing it, as have I.

In the last year, I posted several times about the election on a social media platform and conversed there with others about that. I enjoyed seeing that many people are open to a new and more creative experience politically, while others seem very rigid and insistent on sticking with the way things have been going, and in some cases refused to even consider the idea of change. A good portion of humanity wants to keep going along in the same old ways, and yet we know it hasn't worked.  I think this is a time in which the world finally needs to choose as to whether it will stay in that stuck state or find freedom and solutions by being open to and accepting the natural working of life which originates with God: Father God and Mother God.  And aligning with that, we may each reveal the Divine masculine or the Divine feminine. 

Going back to my mention of the crossover point that we share, I think some who live from that place naturally find their function more in generating heavenly substance or atmosphere, while others are more attuned to service in earthly matters and with people in those arenas. And many operate fluidly in both these realms. Being flexible in spirit and attitude, we can no doubt serve easily in any capacity, as needed; no doubt you have. And because of our web of connection, it all gets covered.

Right now in the U.S., several issues are top of mind; a few are climate change, the National Debt, and wars or conflicts happening elsewhere but which officials take action on. How much more quickly and creatively things might be resolved if those handling them abandoned divisiveness and greed and instead honored our oneness and recognized that, rather than serving ourselves, we're here to serve God, and the greater purposes of life.

So on this Easter Sunday it's wonderful to be with you, providing a place from which a strong and clear blessing may move out through us into the world, to touch whomever is open to receive it; to know that vibrant life is possible now and in all the days to come. I'd like to close with some words by Jesus, spoken just before the events that would lead to his crucifixion and resurrection. These words really spoke to me. There is magic in what Jesus said, and I think the magic was in His love for the Father. We may each know that personal connection and allow it to enliven our beings—our first love. This is from the Book of John, Chapter 17, Jesus speaking with His Father:

Stewart Berger reading John 17

“I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do. And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was. I have manifested thy name unto the men which thou gavest me out of the world: thine they were, and thou gavest them me; and they have kept thy word. Now they have known that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are of thee. For I have given unto them the words which thou gavest me; and they have received them, and have known surely that I came out from thee, and they have believed that thou didst send me.

“I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine. And all mine are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them. And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are.

“While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition. And now come I to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they might have my joy fulfilled in themselves. I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil. They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth. As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world. And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified through the truth.

“Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word; That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one: I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.

“Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world. O righteous Father, the world hath not known thee: but I have known thee, and these have known that thou hast sent me. And I have declared unto them thy name, and will declare it: that the love wherewith thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in them.”

Yujin Pak — As I hear what you have shared, what comes to me are the final words of the Master, “Be with me where I am.” Eternal words. “Be with me where I am”, and in this day we have the opportunity to fulfill the resurrection and fulfill these eternal words to be with Him now, where He is, in oneness with His Being as His princes and princesses. As we are forgiven of the trespasses that we each have known of each other—ways in which we may have trespassed upon each other—asking forgiveness, releasing in forgiveness, we come back into that place that the Master asked, “Be with me where I am, O my princes, O my princesses.” And we have the opportunity to greet each other in this day in the fulfillment of those eternal words and stand now as Sons and Daughters of God, present in this final hour of fulfillment that all that He did may be magnified, glorified. In whom? In us. Stewart, you spoke about Jae Hyoung's words, “Is there hope for mankind?”  As long as the Lord is present through me and you there's hope for mankind. How more true could words be? As long as the Lord is present through me and you; as long as His princes and His princesses are present through me and you today. And the resurrection is not of the past but is now. There's absolute hope for humanity and isn't this the glorious hour in which to fulfill that. To serve the LORD in a kindly human way? Do we want to do that any longer, as individual separate human beings? Why not in these essential hours enter the full surrender that our Master did, released of separate human self, one with the Father, and be the Father present on earth now as He was. This was His prayer for us, that the Father may be present on earth in these final hours, through me, through you. O my princes, O my princesses, I greet you, released of all the trespasses that we may have known of each other.
