Oh Man Oh Woman
It is granted unto you to contain the symbol
of the trinity of Being, picturing forth the union of the TWO that are ONE, and
the RESULT thereof. In the beginning POSITIVE GOD joined to NEGATIVE GOD, and
the CHILD of that union was CREATION. We see POSITIVE MAN (male) joined to
NEGATIVE MAN (female), and the result of that union is the CREATION of CHILD.
Man is a Three-Phase Being: namely, Physical, Mental and Spiritual Expression.
The secrets of these three vibrations in man are these:
Impregnation of NEGATIVE MAN by POSITIVE MAN
results in a PHYSICAL CHILD. Impregnation of POSITIVE MAN by NEGATIVE MAN
results in a MENTAL CHILD. Impregnation of POSITIVE MAN by NEGATIVE MAN
simultaneous to impregnation of NEGATIVE MAN by POSITIVE MAN results in the
BIRTH OF PHYSICAL MATTER INTO THE SPIRITUAL WORLD, and THAT is a SPIRITUAL
EXPRESSION CHILD. To produce a Spiritual Expression Child, both parents thereof
must be both Father and Mother. This is that which is called ART. ART, in any
manifestation, is a physical REFLECTION of a SPIRITUAL EXPRESSION CHILD.
Know also that they who manifest upon this
plane are but HALF of those who are of the plane next higher, and thus do they
continue on till all Beings conjoin in Highest God. Therefore TWO from this
plane must join to be ONE on the plane above, and they who dwell upon that
plane, who are as TWO, must become ONE before entering the plane next above.
This also know. They who are as ONE on this plane must join THE HALF from which
they separated on entering this plane, before they can again be ONE upon the
plane above. In that SPIRITUAL UNION each must join to his own HALF, and no one
can take your Spiritual Half from you in the day when you are to be joined
together. The TWO of this plane, that are ONE on the plane above, taking the
parts of what we on earth speak of as male and female, must always incarnate in
the sex which they first made manifest.
It is SELDOM that both HALVES are incarnate
upon the earth at the same time. Thus it is that the USUAL procedure is for the
Male-Half to be in Earth Life while the Female-Half acts as his Guardian Angel,
followed by an incarnation of the Female-Half while the Male-Half acts as her
Guardian Angel. When BOTH Halves are incarnate at the same time for any reason,
which happens rarely, they are usually kept APART by circumstances, because,
unless their Carnal Minds are COMPLETELY under control and they have both
attained MASTERSHIP IN THE FLESH, the joy of union would be so great that the
human beings would cease to function from the Higher Realms, and their bodies
would be lost to the world that is to come. Thus it must be, else carnal man
would lose that Inner Urge which draws him ever upward.
The supreme thrill of creative expression on
the Inner Planes, where union is a thousand times more vibrantly delightful
than the greatest thrill of physical union, is sacred to the Spiritual Realms
and must always remain so, else man would cease to seek salvation and forget to
find forgiveness. That these truths might be made manifest to those who are worthy
did you enter earth life. For this purpose did you come into the world, that
you might show forth the secret things of God and prove that the Spiritual
Phase of Being may be comprehended by man.
Take heed, therefore, unto these precepts,
contemplate upon them, govern each thought, word and action thereby, and show
forth to the world the results of an Understanding Heart:
Oh MAN, take care that in all things you
shelter, protect, uphold and appreciate the FLESH CHILD which you fathered in
the woman who is the Mother thereof, that she may feel that IT, her child, is
safe in your care.
Oh WOMAN, take care that in all things you
shelter, protect, uphold and appreciate the IDEA CHILD which you fathered in
the man who is the Mother thereof, that he may feel that IT, his child, is safe
in your care.
Oh MAN-WOMAN, take care that in all things
you shelter, protect, uphold and appreciate the SPIRITUAL EXPRESSION CHILD
which you both fathered in the other as the Mother thereof, that you both may
feel that IT, your mutual child, is safe in the other's care. Thus may the INNER NATURE of you both express
freely in art, in music, and in LOVE.

This Body Is The Body Of Shekinah
This Body Is The Body Of Shekinah
The Altar and the Shekinah #2
Martin Cecil January 10, 1971
"Have you been so long time with the body of the Son of God and have not seen Him?"
The altar
of the Lord is being rebuilt on earth in this day, the body of the Son of God
coming again into form in the world. Who has really seen this? So many claim to
have seen it with respect to Jesus, or at least the story about Jesus; but how
little meaning that has if the real body is taking form on earth and is not seen!
How many
of you have seen the way, the truth and the life, by reason of this body which
is taking form? have seen Shekinah, so that you could say, "I have seen
the Father"? The Father is here through Shekinah—through the fire that burns,
the light that glows, and the cloud of glory. Shekinah can only be known when
the form, the body, of the Son of God, the altar of the Lord, is present, to
whatever extent it is present. At what point shall a person recognize that the
body of the Son of God is present on earth?
Those who
know Shekinah through the body of the Son of God on earth are Shekinah. If you
know the truth, you are the truth. If you are merely looking for it, expecting
to find it one day, you do not know the truth. The only way to know the truth
is to be the truth, and the only way to know Shekinah is to be Shekinah.
How
vividly are you aware that this body is the body of the Son of God, the body of
Shekinah? This is the way it's built. This is what it is. Do you know it? Do
you really know that, that the Father is revealed on earth through the Shekinah
of His body? That Shekinah is not separate from His body. The Shekinah builds
the body and shines through the body. What do you see?
Some
people see what they call a ministry. What is the ministry? Ministry is a
function, isn't it? There must be someone present who ministers if there is a
ministry. Are you the one who is present, that ministers? You are not then the
ministry, are you? You are the minister. Those who are associated with whatever
it is should know better than to speak of the ministry in this way, as though
it were something you could join or leave. What we are really talking about,
and seeking to experience, is the body of the Son of God.
Nobody can
have a separate will in the body of the Son of God. There is the one will, the
will of the Father, which is the expression of Shekinah. One cannot know this
truth as long as a personal will is maintained. We have a growing consciousness
of the reality of Shekinah. We know Shekinah just to the degree that we are
that, so that there is no separation, no separate will certainly.
The body
of the Son of God built by Shekinah for the expression of Shekinah—no other
reason for being! He that has seen this, not just as a fanciful theory but as a
present fact, has seen the Father. This body, the body of the Son of God on
earth, reveals the Father, just as the body of Jesus did, but obviously, to see
this truth there must be a seeing which looks beyond the physical form. Many
knew Jesus as a physical form but never saw Him, never saw Shekinah.
We know
that only as the altar of the Lord is built on earth does it become possible
for the temple of God to be built on earth, for mankind to be restored as the
temple of God—filled with Shekinah, built by Shekinah, Shekinah manifesting
through the altar of the Lord, through the body of the Son of God. Those who
actually participate in this are themselves Shekinah, the evidence of the
presence of the One Who Dwells in His body.
The truth
is here now; the body of the Son of God is here now. Do you respect it? Do you
behold Shekinah because of it? Or do you just see it as nothing particularly
out of the ordinary, just as many people saw Jesus as nothing particularly out
of the ordinary. What do you see?
The body of the Son of God is taking form on earth because there are a few who know it, because they know Shekinah, because they are Shekinah—there is no other way of knowing it—are the evidence of the presence of the One Who Dwells in form on earth. To those the body of the Son of God is beautiful, precious, because through it Shekinah is seen. Shekinah is the minister, and there is a ministry because of the minister. The invitation is extended not to become a part of the ministry, whatever that is, but to become aware of being a part of the body of the Son of God—this! The fact of being proclaims that each one is a part of that body, but scarcely anyone has known it.
Our concern is with the One who ministers. The One who ministers is Shekinah. Our Master said, "I am Shekinah. I am the way, the truth, and the life. He that hath seen Shekinah hath seen the Father." He was not saying, "He that hath seen my physical form has necessarily seen the Father." No! When you look at the body of the Son of God taking form, what do you see? Just the form? Do you think that there is something wrong with the form? You don't think much of the form of the body of the Son of God. You're hung up. You don't see Shekinah. If the body of the Son of God is here, if it is emerging, it is because Shekinah is here. There couldn't be any body without Shekinah. "Without him was not any thing made that was made." How could one possibly come and go in the body of the Son of God? One either knows Shekinah because one is Shekinah or one knows nothing. One can mouth platitudes and follow out personal desires, and die!
Here are
some other words of Shekinah: "He that findeth his life shall lose it: and
he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it."
How much
do we cling to our personal lives? How much can the things that happen
supposedly in our personal lives throw us? How much can we be caused to deny
Shekinah by the things that occur in our personal lives? We are associated with
something, whether we have consciously realized it or not, that is absolute. Finding
one's life in the human sense is losing it in the divine sense. Now there isn't
really any such thing as life in the human sense; there is only life in the divine
sense. The fact of the matter is that the only life that is available to human
beings is the life of Shekinah. "In him was life." There isn't any
other.
The body
of the Son of God is on earth. The very fact that it is on earth reveals the
fact that Shekinah is here, because Shekinah creates the body of manifestation.
And so the body emerges because of Shekinah. When we begin to know this, this
body is seen with new eyes. It is the most precious thing conceivable to us. It would be beyond the bounds of imagination
even to consider trying to separate ourselves from it. We do try to
separate ourselves from it every time that we inject a personal will. We are
saying in effect, "I want to keep my life, my human life"—my subhuman
life actually. And on this basis I can keep it for a while. But I lose it,
because it is not mine, in the subhuman sense. It is part of Shekinah, and it
will never be disassociated from Shekinah. You can't get life away from
Shekinah. Being Shekinah, it is inconceivable that one could be anything else;
and that's the truth of the matter, because one can't be anything else, at
least not for very long.
Have you
been so long time with the body of the Son of God and have not seen Him? As I
say, it is utterly inconceivable to a person who has actually seen the Father
through Shekinah in the body of the Son of God to separate himself from that;
it can't be done. The altar of the Lord is being rebuilt on earth—that's my
total concern—just with this one thing: rebuilding the altar of the Lord that
is broken down. It is the only thing that has any meaning whatsoever. If there
are those who will associate themselves with this rebuilding of that altar, I
receive them with rejoicing. I have patience, as most of you know, but
fundamentally, if a person fools around and doesn't accept this priceless
invitation, I don't care what happens to that person! Those of you who offer
yourselves to Shekinah agree with me in this. Yes, there is patience, there is
understanding, people are given time; but self-indulgence in personal nonsense
is of no value, and those who undertake to follow out such courses are of no
value to themselves or to anyone else.
The body of the Son of God is taking form on earth because Shekinah is here. Because this is so, the whole world has the opportunity of making a choice. The time is at hand for everyone. It's here now for many.

Rejoice In Your Present Setting
Rejoice In Your Present Setting
Martin Cecil 1975
Any environment in which you find yourself is the setting for the development of the jewel. Don't object to it, don't downgrade it, don't complain about it. Rejoice that your present setting allows you to develop the expression of the true jewel which you are in reality.
Those who have become aware of greater significance in their fields of ministry can look back and see how the circumstances of the past were absolutely essential to the development of the jewel of the present, and how the present circumstance is absolutely essential to the development of the jewel of the future. So we move together, thankful for this setting that provides us with the opportunity for the greater emergence of our shared spiritual expression.
