All Praise And Honor And Glory Go To Him

Special Sessions Riverside, California
We are not working according to the methods of man, but according to the methods of God, and the same methods outlined by the Master before His ascension have to be put to work now or it is nothing. Peter and Paul were the ones who came mighty close to wrecking the work of Christ on earth. It has taken 1900 years to get to a point where we can start what should have been started then. We have covered a lot of ground. I praise the Lord. When these things are realized we begin to be in position to do something. Until they are realized, the great distinctions between the Right Way and the way that was followed in the days when Peter took the reins cannot be seen, and until they are seen, people are going to go right on making the same mistakes that Peter and the others made. When the other disciples refused to follow through on the plan that Jesus inaugurated and refused to recognize the place of John in the plan, John had to follow the way which Jesus took. If he had not done that, this cycle would not have come. On the Isle of Patmos, he wrote the Book of Revelation and reopened the way for this cycle of manifestation, but if he had not carried through there, and set the pattern, there would not have been any way to build any salvation out of the wreckage that Peter and Paul had wrought. That would have been complete failure. John did speak up but they would not listen, even to the extent of there being no record. Luke wrote the book of Acts, and he furthered the leadership of Peter and Paul. Luke was not even a disciple and yet he wrote one of the Gospels.
The important thing is that you have learned to know Jesus Christ better than the disciples did then. Because John loved Jesus, and because John understood Him, and the rest did not, so those in the School today know Jesus better and understand Him more fully than the disciples did as a whole, and it is not until we know and understand Jesus Christ and recognize what His Life and Ministry meant, and realize that what He said is true: “Lo I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world”—that is, the end of the world of evil—that we understand what the Gospel of the Kingdom was and is. When there is a recognition of Jesus Christ, of Who He is, of what the real Gospel is, of what His Life and teaching is, of what it means to reveal that Gospel as it is in Reality, and of the Way by which that Kingdom that is at hand may come into manifestation for us, then we know the true purpose of Jesus’s Life and Ministry.
It is all done, all accomplished, and all achievement is possible through the Love and Power of Jesus Christ. The honor and glory are His, and while I appreciate recognition of my Ministry, the greatest recognition of it and the most pleasing for me, is the recognition of Him, and the proof that that Ministry means anything is the manifestation of an increased Love for Him.
I wonder if I could convey something to you. It is a little difficult sometimes for human beings to comprehend—and it is certainly difficult to put into words—but when I talk about Jesus and His Life and His Ministry and His teaching, it is not just talking about the Bible. When I say “I”, I am not talking about this outer form which came into manifestation forty years ago. I am talking about that which I Am within the form. “The Father Who dwelleth in me, He doeth the works... The words I speak unto you I speak not of myself.” The reason my Ministry has meaning for those who have ears to hear and eyes to see is because that is just as true of me as it was of Jesus, and only from the standpoint of that Inner Reality, can there be appreciation of what I mean, or what I feel, or what it is I am seeking to convey—that it is not just the words of a human being. Unless there is a recognition of that, as far as that Inner Reality is concerned, no one can realize that I stood there at the cross when He was crucified. I am not talking about a record from the Bible. I am talking about something that I saw, something that I shared and experienced, I am talking about days and months and years of living with Him while He was on earth.
There should begin to be some comprehension of the fact that all that I have done in Ministry is primarily because I love Him—because I want all praise and honor and glory to go to Him. He, the LORD of Lords and KING of Kings, went through that mockery of the trial, and went to the cross under the world’s rejection, and His disciples followed afar off, so that when He was on the cross there was only one disciple there. There was only one disciple standing by Him when He was on the cross, and I was there—and concerning that, after His Resurrection, the third and last time He was with the disciples, He made that statement, “If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to thee? follow thou me.”
The only one of the disciples that could bring this, of which the Bible is a record, back into a vivid expression of Reality, was the only one who stood by Him when He was on the cross. When I say these things I am not saying them because it is anything special to me that they be recognized, because it is not. It makes no difference to my Reality, one way or the other. It only means that unless that is recognized, and unless the spirit of that which I am seeking to convey is appreciated from that standpoint, the true reality of the Master cannot be comprehended, the true significance of His life cannot be realized, because it is not just someone talking about it theoretically, someone taking the Bible and reading it and deciding that it means this, that or the other thing. It is something that is. As you have recognized that there is not anyone else on earth who has opened the Bible to you as I have, there must be that recognition that it is only because there is, from the Inner standpoint, a recognition of my sharing that with Him, before there can be a comprehension of what He means to us today, so that what He did will not be in vain.
This portrayal [in John 14, 15, 16 and 17] of what was supposed to be the manifestation of His Body on earth, the means by which He could continue to function on earth in outer form, the means by which the necessary works could be accomplished, cannot be understood just from an intellectual, outer standpoint, or someone’s thinking or reading. There have been brilliant men down through centuries who have had these same passages to read and study. They have gotten certain things out of them, but though they read them and studied them and preached about them, they did not make manifest that fundamental Reality which the Master Himself was seeking to convey to mankind. He came into the world and did these things, and lived among us because He loved humanity, because He loved each man, woman and child upon the face of the earth. He manifested His Love for us in many ways, and when, in the recognition of that Love for us, we learn to really love Him, then we can begin to be a part of His Body on earth, and being a part of His Body on earth in actuality, we can begin to let His Love work through us into the world.
Human beings approaching it from an intellectual standpoint, cannot comprehend that depth of love, let alone let it work through themselves into the world, and unless that love becomes such a living, vital, constant and utterly complete, thing, so that it is that which fills our expression and holds us in oneness with Him, our words will continue to be just words and will accomplish no more than what a lot of other good people have accomplished.
My saying some of these things does not prove that they are true, and yet if my Ministry and my expression of the Word, and my portrayal of Him, do not prove it, I do not know what could. I could not help you to know Him unless I knew Him. It is because I know Him as He was, and as He is, that I can help you to come to know Him. I have outlined these things because there cannot be a true realization of the fact that I know Him unless there begins to be an understanding of these truths, and the more vividly the individual knows that I know Him, the easier will it be for me to introduce the individual to the LORD of Lords, so that each one can know Him, and so that these things can be such vital, living realities in relationship to us right now, no longer separated by two thousand years—something that is just as real and just as vital for us as it possibly could have been for those disciples; and in fact it must be a lot more vital and real than it was for any of those disciples, save one. And unless that vividness can be conveyed to the One Christ Body, so that it is just as real as it was to John, then there is no means whereby this outworking can take place now.
We have got to know Him and love Him. Time, in that sense, has utterly no meaning—because if the Master had ascended yesterday it could have no more meaning than it does. Until we get away from this tendency of thinking of ourselves as being separated from Him by 1900 years, it cannot be done. It must be just as if He had walked every step of the way here with us, or as if we had with Him then, and then the possibilities of fulfilment for us are really greater than they were for the disciples after He returned to the Father. That is why, while I appreciate your recognition of my Ministry, it really makes me feel very uncomfortable when you express so lovingly—and I am not criticizing you for it—unless the praise and honor and glory go to Him. Yes, I know, it goes to Him through me.
I have said these things because I have tried to convey to you how I feel about it
so that you emphasize in those recognitions the love and response to Him.
I am not finding fault, but I am just trying to convey how I feel about it.
Let us remember that mankind is still crucifying Him on the cross of human self-activity in the body and mind, just as surely as they were back then. When we begin to see these things as they really are and we begin to become a part of His Body in that true sense, then we find that as we look into the world of unreality we are all standing at the foot of the cross. We begin to realize that this world is still crucifying Him; and that until we, in oneness, come to stand at the foot of the cross and begin to carry it on from there, as He intended, it is as nothing, because all of the sermons and preachings and everything else that could be accomplished by an intellectual consideration of the Bible, even though the individuals loved God sincerely—all these things—until they transcend time and space and distance, and it is recognized here, we cannot fulfil that in which the disciples failed then. What I am seeking to bring into manifestation as rapidly as possible is to go back to the point before the failures, right back to the foot of the cross, and go from there without regard to any of the rest of it, and unless we can do that, as branches of the One Vine, we are not going to succeed. These are partial truths man has used, and you can work from now till doomsday and get nowhere. We have got to stop trying to build on the cycles that have gone and let the thing come into manifestation the way it should have come into manifestation then, and set new precedents, and once we get that going He will be able to do the works and get it done—but that is the only way.

THE GREAT PYRAMID
It's Message To The World
Uranda 1936
“In that day there will be an altar to the LORD in the midst of the land of Egypt,
and a pillar at the border of it to the LORD.
And it shall be for a sign and for a witness unto the LORD of Hosts in the land of Egypt.”
Isaiah 19:19-20
In the Great Pyramid of Giza all secrets are made known, and he who understands the mysteries thereof has been initiated by the Master Self within, that he may know all the Laws of Life. In this 'Bible in Stone' man's three-phase nature is revealed, and the Way of Salvation and Ascension is shown. The state of the worldly wise who depend upon riches is made manifest, and the fate of those who turn not to the Lord is made known—for them the Bottomless Pit is prepared, and those who fight against God shall not escape. The Cosmic Laws of Being are sure and certain, and no man can change them.
Let the Blessed Ones give heed to the revelations contained in the Stone Bible of the earth, which scheming men cannot erase or alter for their own selfish benefit. Behold the Bible in Stone, which has stood through these thousands of years, unchanged—An Altar Unto The Lord.
“And Jesus saith unto them, Have ye not read in your scriptures,
The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner.”
Matthew 24-42

The Way Of Ascension
Represented In The Symbolism In Stone Within The Pyramid
1. The Entrance Passage that leads to the Choice of the Way. This Entrance Passage is easy in that it takes no effort on the part of the individual in order to pass through it. As the Entrant looks back along the passage he sees the Light of the Pole Star, which symbolizes External Light and Guidance. The Entrant is as yet polarized to External Things. And if he is to turn Upward at the Choice of, or Dividing of the Way, then in order to keep from going Down the Descending Passage, he must begin to attune himself to the Light within through the action of self-confidence and initiative, else he will feel that he is lost, and without any guiding Light when he turns on the Upward Way.
2. Here, at the Choice of the Way, is a great secret. At this point, fitted into the lower end of the First Ascending Passage, is a Granite Plug which completely fills the First Ascending Passage entrance, and it has defied all modern attempts to move it. Since the opening of the Pyramid within the last few hundred years, there was a long time that there was no knowledge of any Ascending Passage. All that could be seen was the Descending Passage that leads to the Chamber of Chaos. Finally a passage was dug through the rock around the Granite Plug so that entrance into the Ascending Passage was gained. This Granite Plug, at the time the Pyramid was used as a Temple of Initiation, could be easily moved by secret means. Those who did not know the Secret could not ascend—they could only go down to the Chamber of Chaos. The Initiate was given a Secret Key, or Hint of the Way, but he himself had to work out the secret and apply it in order to move the Granite Plug and thus begin to ascend on the upward Way. Here is the Secret Key by which thou may remove the Granite Plug that prevents thy Ascension: Turn to the Light that is within thyself, even “the Light which Lighteth every man which cometh into the world,” and in so doing shalt thou find that all that is required by thee is already provided for thee within thyself. So it is that thine own Divine Initiative and Assurance shall allow thy Ascension in the Way. The Power of Love is the only Force which will remove the Granite Plug for thee, so that this “mountain” may be “removed and cast into the sea” of Truth. Peace be unto thee.
3. The Descending Passage. “Broad is the way, and wide is the gate, which leadeth to destruction, and many there be who go in thereat.” This Passage symbolizes the state of the vast majority of the people of the world, for it is the Easy Downward Way.
4. The First Ascending Passage. This is the realm of physical and mental attainment, which is fine as a First Step, but the world has come to look upon it as the Ultimate of Attainment. Herein is the kind of progress and attainment that the world sees and recognizes, but the one who has ascended thus far must not content himself with the Easy Way to the Queen's Chamber. He who has ascended this First Upward Passage finds that “straight is the gate and narrow is the Way which leadeth” past the Well and up the Grand Gallery to “Life Everlasting.” The Choice comes next, either the easy way towards the allure of the Queen’s Chamber at the Dividing of the Way or continued Ascension.
5. The Dividing of the Way, and the Well. The Well is a large, jagged hole that tends to prevent the Ascent into the Grand Gallery. The Well symbolizes fear, hate, and all the other destructive emotions, which may cause the Anomon to descend to the Chamber of Chaos and the Bottomless Pit. The term, Anomon, means Upward One, and it is used throughout to signify the Initiate who has begun ascent on the upward Way.
6. The Well which carries those who fall into it down to the Chamber of Chaos: This is the “Pit” of pride, hate, fear, and all other destructive emotions.
7. The Grotto, which is an enlarged place in the Well. The person who falls into the Well has some slight chance of stopping his downward fall when he reaches the Grotto; yet he finds that it is virtually impossible for him to climb back up through the Well, for it is almost perpendicular, and there is nothing solid to hold to, or climb on in the pit of fear, hate and pride; therefore, the individual must go on down the Well, which has a more gradual descent from this point downward.
8. The Chamber of Chaos, or the Chamber of Upside-Downness. Although the ceiling of the Chamber of Chaos is smooth and well finished, the floor is most uneven and is absolutely Unfinished. In some places the floor comes very nearly within a foot of the ceiling, and those who climb up on-these “hummocks” think they are better and “higher” than those who are further down on the floor, but high or low it is all the Floor of the Chamber of Chaos, proving that the world standard for measuring attainment is all Upside-Down. Few there are who ever work their way out.
9. The Bottomless Pit. In the floor of the Chamber of Chaos is a Bottomless Pit, into which one may very easily fall.
10. The Passage to the Queen's Chamber. Here is pictured the highest possible attainments of the outer man who follows the dictates of his or her own mind. Here is the way to the goal of all wealth, fame and worldly position, and the ends thereof are revealed as death; for there is no progressive passage out of the Queen's Chamber.
11. The Downward Step in the Passage to the Queen's Chamber, showing the “Fall” which is taken by the individual who seeks to find security in external and material things, such as wealth, and the satisfaction of the physical desires on what the world calls a “high plane.”
12. and 12a. The Unfinished Vents of the Queen's Chamber, showing that here are those who depend on the “Letter of the Law, which Killeth.” In this Chamber it is impossible to receive and know the “Spirit which giveth Life.” These two unfinished vents form the “horns” of the “devil.”
13. The Queen's Chamber, from which there is no outlet except by retracing one's steps. He who wastes his time here finds that it is almost impossible to summon enough strength and courage to pass the Well again and ascend the Grand Gallery. This is the Chamber of High Intellectual Attainment and great riches and worldly power. This seems to be the Safe Way to the one who stands at the Dividing of the Ways, but the end thereof is death. “It is easier for a camel to pass through the Gate of the Needle's Eye, than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of Heaven.”
14. The Grand Gallery, the Chamber of Internal Light, or the Chamber of the Ascension. The primary process of Ascension must take place herein before the final step of Ascension may be attained. The final step is all the average person thinks of as Ascension. The Seven Corbelled, or In-steps forming the wall of the Grand Gallery symbolize the Seven Planes, and show the degree to which the Anomon can perceive the presence of the Seven Planes. As the Anomon ascends through the Grand Gallery, the Ceiling of the Gallery farther down is at a level with his eye, and he can see it—that is, the Seventh Plane, to the degree that he functions in the Inner Light which alone can penetrate the darkness of the Grand Gallery.
15. The Great Step. This Step is three feet high, representing the Three Phases of human Life, and taking the Great Step means to uplift the whole life expression into Fourth Plane of Being. This Jesus did in the Garden of Gethsemane. He had taken the Great Step when He said, “Thy will, not mine be done.”
16. The First Low Passage, which symbolizes the Crucifixion, that is, the Crossing by which a complete blending, or Union, of the outer and the inner is attained.
17. The Antechamber, representing the Medulla Oblongata at the base of the brain, in which the Christ Principle prepares the Anomon (Initiate) for passage through the Abyss of Nothingness after the Crucifixion has taken place. This is symbolized in the Life of Jesus by the period of time He remained on the Cross—before He was placed in the Tomb which proved to be Open.
18. The Last Low Passage, which symbolizes the Abyss of Nothingness. He who has passed through the Abyss of Nothingness in his own life has nothing to fear from the world, or the world passage through this Abyss. Behold, the whole world is now passing through the Abyss of nothingness, and it will emerge there from on September 16, 1936. After this date, the inch-month basis of time measurement in the Pyramid will change to the inch-week basis. During this period all who turn fully to the Father shall know and experience the Mysteries of the Open Tomb.
19. And 19a are the Two Air Vents Leading to the King's Chamber. Air symbolizes Spirit; therefore, the Anomon is “bathed” in an abundance of Spirit for the first time after his entrance into the Temple of Initiation. The two vents represent the perfect harmony of union between the Positive and Negative phases of Spirit which the Anomon experiences on entering into the King’s Chamber. In other words, the physical substance which enters into the body (the Temple) from the outer world (as food), and responds to the Christ in Ascension, does not reach a point of complete freedom from the influence of physical things, and does not see with the perfect vision of the Father, until it enters the King's Chamber, where it comes under the full unhindered influence of the Spirit.
20. The Open Tomb, or Sarcophagus, in the King's Chamber. The Open Sarcophagus symbolizes the Spiritualization process that takes place during Ascension. Here is the secret of the Way in which death is overcome, for he who enters in shall never more be subject to birth or death. The whole world will reach the center of the Open Tomb, directly under the Symbol of Completion (^).
21. The King's Chamber, sometimes called the Chamber of The Open Tomb—the Secret Place of the Most High, the Throne of the Almighty, the Realm of Final Attainment, corresponding to the Pineal Gland. This is that which is spoken of as “Heaven”, even the consciousness of the Father within, in which we may dwell here on earth. He who enters herein is free from all attachment to material things, and all unresponsive physical things are removed from him, that he may abide in the Truth of his own God Being.
22. The Seven Slabs of Stone above the King's Chamber, with the two top stones forming the symbol of Completion over the five horizontal slabs, represent Mastery of the Five Senses of Perception, as they relate to the Seven Planes of Being. In this is the final secret of Ascension, and the Way thereof for he who harmonizes completely with the Father Within knows the Union of the Inner and the Outer in the fullness of Completion, through the activity of the Five.
The Time Measurement
The Great Pyramid itself shows why the inch week basis is in effect in the King's Chamber, and it stands as its own authority. No man can add anything thereto; or take anything there from. It is the Truth revealed for all who have eyes to see.
The Seven Slabs above the King's Chamber show that the full release into Seven Plane Being is experienced by all who enter therein, whether from an individual or a world standpoint. All that is truly of the King, or God Being within each individual must by the very Nature of that Being have unhindered action and reaction in all Seven Planes.
It is evident to all Spiritually Directed Students that the whole world will enter the King's Chamber this coming September. In the Last Low Passage, where the world now is, the inch-month basis of time measurement shows how it is that these experiences relate to the three phases of the outer man (30 days in a month), and that man can only be directly conscious of the first four Planes of Being (4 weeks in a month). When entrance is made into the King's Chamber, the time measurement must correspond to the Seven, which dominates the King's Chamber, and the only possible and available cycle, which meets these requirements, is the week, in which there are seven days. It may be argued that a change might occur in the unit of measurement, namely, the inch. However, it is at least logical to consider the fact that a world-recognized unit would be used so long as the world as it is now known was, and is, involved, and a fraction of a unit would hardly be satisfactory.
The two top slabs form the symbol of Completion. The Open Tomb symbolizes release from death, and the limiting evils of the outer world. One hundred eight inches (which adds to nine, and is another symbol of Completion), takes one from the entrance to the King’s Chamber to the Center of the Open Tomb, directly under the apex of the symbol of Completion formed by the two top Slabs.
Conditions will continue to get worse, as the world continues through the Abyss of Nothingness, and in that time all the things and activities of the outer man will be proven to be nothing. At that time the great explosion will take place, and the destruction of evil by evil will continue, till it will be complete. World turmoil will necessitate our working under entirely different conditions. This Service is heralding the coming changes amid the full release into Spiritual Expression; therefore, the Water Symbol of the past Age is no longer held as necessary, although it is allowed, and administered, where individuals feel the need thereof. With the Voice of this Service sounding the Call in the Abyss of Nothingness, a new Realization is established—that which goes beyond the use of Symbol to the Actualized Expression in spirit here and now.
The Cosmic Call Of The Pyramid
To the Blessed One (Blessed because of his love and trust in God) the Great Pyramid stands as a symbol of the Sacred Trumpet through which the Cosmic Call to Union in God is Sounding. Even as the Pyramid stands upon its foursquare base, and ascends upward to an Invisible Point, where all four sides blend into perfect oneness, so is it required that the four phases of Being, which are the sure Foundation of man's Life, are now to be lifted up through the Christ into perfect Union in God.
As the Pyramid has no Visible Capstone, so it is that the fleshly eye of man cannot see the Capstone of his own Being. The Blessed One is aware that the God Being within himself—whom he knows was represented as Jesus Christ—is his Capstone, the Stone that the people of the world have rejected. With the Voice of the Spirit sounding the Call to Union with Christ in the Abyss of Nothingness, all who have “eyes to see, and ears to hear” are awakening to the Truth that “man, of himself, can do nothing,” but that in perfect Oneness with God “All things are possible.” Even as Love is a realization of the sense of Oneness with the one loved, so it is that all who truly love God have a realization of the sense of Oneness with God.
In Our Image, after Our Likeness, for As above, So below. So it is that the Blessed One knows that the physically visible part of himself is not his whole and complete Being. Let us, with one accord, in one vibration of Being, turn to the Lord within, our invisible Capstone, that we may receive and know the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. That which pours out must come from within. It is only as we, individually and collectively, let the Spirit of God pour out through us in Selfless Service of Love to our fellow man, that we will be able to accomplish our mission and purpose in the earth.
Even as the Inner physical expressions of Truth in the Pyramid are invisible to the world, so likewise the world knows nothing of the Invisible Capstone. Let us, with one accord, prove the Truth which we profess by allowing the Radiance of the Christ within us to make manifest our Oneness in God, that through us the Secret of the Invisible Capstone may be revealed to the world. Praise the Lord and let it be so.

Everything Is Happening
Because This Point Of Orientation Is Here
Bill Bahan and Martin Cecil April 15, 1981 Assembly
Bill Bahan — None are free if any are bound. This was a statement made many years back by Uranda. At the time that these words were spoken there was the vision of the fact that the ones who were bound were going to be offered their freedom. The outer facility as to how that would be done certainly wasn't in form, but the vision of the fact that it would take place was certainly in his consciousness.
This morning I noted words that were mentioned, two words: binding and loosing. Well we have the responsibility in this process which is going on—the loosing is taking place. And I thought that we might refresh our pure minds in relationship to the process that is involved so that this flood which is coming, which is now, may be handled by those of us who have the responsibility intelligently, deliberately, so that we go about it as professionals, one might say.
We have the words in Matthew 18, the eighteenth Verse, “Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.” Now this loosening process is taking place. It is taking place because of the fact that there are those who are loose—have been for some time now—and there is the facility to provide the focus to begin to unloose those who are tied down in the mass subconscious mind. Human beings have been bound by convention. They are in the habit of tying themselves in knots. We know in our own experience that conventional behaviour, and how we found ourselves tied in knots—probably not too tightly or we wouldn't be here—but there was the binding in our own experience, and the offering of the Lord which allowed that loosening to take place.
The LORD has always offered the word, “Don't be too much in a hurry to unloose them,” because if we do have a large influx of those who have been cut loose and we are not in position to handle them, well we know that they go out and tie themselves up tighter than they were before. And in the next verse which follows this one on binding and loosing is the answer to handling this particular situation, something that we are very aware of and alert to. The next verse: “Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.” Now, in our recent services we have been looking at this “two in agreement” and we have seen that there must be two—that is the minimum. I think there are some who consider it the maximum. But there must be two: the Conscious Mind and the Father initially. We have seen in our own experience how that representation of the Father has been provided for us, and in our conscious mind being in agreement with it, regardless of the state of our subconscious mind. We didn't have to be concerned about that. “If two of you shall agree on earth.” There is the representation of the Father—and in our conscious mind we are in absolute agreement with it. “If two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven. For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.”
The third one will come along. I would suggest that this which is opening up is the third one coming along, which is the subconscious mind. It is coming along. Here are those who are putting in an appearance out of that particular level, and I think it is very interesting—the responsibility that we have towards it. Hugh Malafry mentioned something about the subculture; about the subculture being something on its own because it doesn’t trust the greater culture. Well this is just a reflection of the conscious and subconscious minds. The subconscious mind of man distrusts the conscious mind of man, rightly so, because the conscious mind of man has the responsibility of being the guardian angel, of protecting what it is that gets down into that subconscious mind. It has been a very negligent angel, as we know, and consequently all of this stuff has come down on the subconscious mind.
Our responsibility, really, is to work with that subconscious mind, and to develop the trust. This is beginning to happen because the Son consciousness has been expanding and revealing the fact that it is a guardian angel, and we have had the opportunity—whether or not we have recognized what we are doing, what we have been doing—we have had the opportunity of offering something consistent from the Father through the Son consciousness into the subconscious mind of mankind which says to the subconscious mind of mankind, “You can trust.” So it begins to open up, and it is opening up now. And woe unto those who have the responsibility of representing the Son consciousness who, when this heart begins to open up, this subconscious aspect—the subculture of the mind begins to open up—and we offer any defilement into that, because it will close like a clam.
So here it is, opening. We begin to see the release of real power—and change comes when this subconscious opens—particularly through those of us who represent the conscious aspect of the mind, and if it is a true representation there is the Holy Ghost. The third aspect will follow along which is the Holy Ghost. It is the Holy Ghost which does the work—there is where the power is. It is the Holy Ghost being made manifest through the Son consciousness which allows us to begin to work with the Holy Ghost of the body of mankind—which hasn’t been a Holy Ghost, but it is a Holy Ghost aspect. This is where the work is being done. We realize that none of that could have been done unless there had been the presence of the Son consciousness, and nothing could have been done if there hadn’t been the representation of the Father.
I was thinking this morning how things of such magnitude are taking place, and how few see what it is that is taking place. How few saw what was taking place at the time of Moses. How few saw what was taking place at the time when our LORD and KING was on earth—even those close in as we read the record. There was just one or two really, who saw something of what was being offered, the greatness of it. And this particular Divine Line which opened up through Uranda—he was the only one who could have come out of this subconscious mess, because of who he was—because he came out he opened the door so that all of us could come out. Now you and I have the opportunity because of that representation of the Father, and those who responded to it initially, with their conscious mind in agreement with it. Now the whole thing is here, and we the have the opportunity of taking advantage of it because the light is on, the surface is there, everything is clear. We can’t see all the ins-and-outs, but we do know what is required.
We can do what is required, as I say, intelligently and deliberately. And one of the things that I would emphasize—that we need to be alert to—is that initially when people begin to move in the pattern of transformation they want to help mankind. We are not here to help man! We are here to serve the LORD. That is first. I think we have reached the point where there has been that clarity in consciousness—where the do-good syndrome has been cleared out of our particular expression. We serve the LORD. Now in the particular gathering that I mentioned that we had in New York, so many of them that were there—and there was a wide spectrum of representation, from political activists, to so-called spiritual people, to environmentalists—and they were all concerned with saving mankind. They were all concerned with serving man. Perfect! That’s where they are—but it isn’t where we are! We serve from heaven, and serving from heaven we serve man, but our first responsibility is to serve the LORD.
So I delight to serve the LORD with you. Isn’t it wonderful to know what we know and to see what we see. And in knowing what we know and seeing what we see we move forward, on that absolute path. It will be done. [greatcosmicstory.blogspot.com/2014/07/from-sacred-period-bill-bahan-september.html] If any heart should open to the Lord, to us, we know that we will take care of that. It has been offered into our hands. We are stewards of that heart, and we will bring that one to the place where the LORD would have them in His Kingdom, right here on earth.
Martin Cecil — The Word of the LORD is powerful and beautiful. “If two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.” That is an absolute statement. “For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.”
We have begun to understand what agreement is. Many more than those who are gathered here have this understanding and experience, but we provide a focus of representation in this regard in a particular sense, and I am sure all of you are most willing to accept the responsibility of it. We accept it together because we are in agreement. We don’t have to discuss the matter, pro and con—we are in agreement. This is a remarkable state of affairs on earth, isn’t it? Because of this what needs to be done is done. We are constantly being encouraged that this is so by the opportunity to observe what is being done, to see what is happening. We have sufficient vision to be aware, at least in part, of what it is that is going on. We are content with the vision that we have, but at the same time I am sure all of you are aware that there is more to see. We haven’t experienced a complete vision, complete understanding, yet.
As Bill said, “While any are bound, none are free.” There are various levels of the experience of freedom but never complete until it is experienced wholly. This is more or less obviously so, but most human beings have tried to think that “wholly” meant “just me completely", whereas it doesn’t mean the individual alone. The individual participates certainly, but the freedom is the freedom of the whole. What has been bound has been mankind as a whole; therefore the reality of freedom in the experience of mankind includes the whole. Therefore the statement is seen certainly to be true: “While any are bound, none are free,” because the freedom of the whole is not known. Until the freedom of the whole is known, the freedom of the individual cannot be known—only perhaps hints of it. We have hints and delight in those hints ourselves, and this gives us sufficient freedom to move and to act, and to see so that we may be useful in the creative cycle which is already at work by which the fulfillment of freedom for the whole comes.
Now as individual human beings certainly we didn't have anything to do with this creative cycle. It was moving before ever we were born anyway—but as angels maybe we had something to do with it. As the human form awakens to the angelic consciousness, then there begins to be an awareness that we certainly as angels have had something to do with what is happening. It becomes quite apparent to us, for instance, that this cycle in which we now participate, while there was something moving before, was initiated in a very specific sense by the One whom we call LORD and KING, when He was on earth. And there is something that has been happening ever after. It appeared in various ways, and we have a record which we can read as to what occurred with the disciples way back, but this was only a little thing that conceivably could have led to greater things—but didn’t. So what was initiated was something above and beyond that. That may have been evidence that something had been initiated, but there has been this unfoldment which has been taking place consistently down over the centuries until we were born on earth in physical form to play our part in bringing what had been initiated to its ultimate conclusion. We are aware of what that conclusion is. We call it the restoration of man, freedom for the whole. The truth makes free. The extent that we see the truth at this point, to that extent we are free. But we know that that freedom is not total as yet.
So we are moving in this process and various things occur because of this. First of all there needed to be a conscious awareness established on earth, and this particular aspect of the matter was brought to focus through Uranda. Here was a conscious initiation, re-initiation, or an initiation at a new level of consciousness, of what had been at work all the way down since the Master set it in motion. And it emerged at this point in human consciousness. We have had the opportunity of awakening to this ourselves at various times in various ways to whatever level of conscious awareness we now have, and this has provided an expanded focus of true awareness in the consciousness of mankind on earth. And because this has been established a certain measure of agreement, as Bill has put it, between Father and Son has emerged. It has emerged to the extent that the Son consciousness has emerged. We participate in that.
We see what we see. We know that there is a lot more to see, and for that seeing to occur much needs to happen with respect to those who do not see. Now we see because something has been happening with respect to those who do not see. You can all look back to a time when you did not see, when you did not understand. And I am sure no one has the view that it was by some special efforts on their own part that they finally reached the pinnacle of success. We have noted that in some ways it has been a painful process, chiefly because from the standpoint of mind and heart there was a certain amount of resistance to it. But to the extent the resistance has been dissolved, we have come a long way and we have what we have now, and we see what is happening on a much larger scale than we originally understood. What we originally understood probably simply related to the confines of the Emissary ministry which was somehow or other supposed to take in everybody else. But it didn’t happen just that way. It isn’t happening the way it may have been set up in the structures of human consciousness, our own included. It is happening the way it does happen, and we are quite willing in these days to allow it to happen that way rather than the way that we had it set up in consciousness.
There is the conscious awareness, some measure of the reality of the Son consciousness, providing a focus of orientation in the consciousness of mankind. At the same time the spirit of God has been moving not only to produce this focus, but to achieve what was properly related to the bringing forth of the focus in the subconscious levels of the mind of mankind. Now, being conscious and aware of what it is that is at work, we begin to see what is happening from the standpoint of the subconscious mind of humanity. We realize that this is not separate from ourselves because we would not be in the position to have a conscious awareness if it had not been that something had been happening in the subconscious mind of humanity—and what was happening was happening by reason of the sending and the consequent coming of the Comforter.
It has taken almost 2,000 years to reach this point, which gives some indication of the crustiness of the human nature consciousness of mankind. It has taken this length of time, but things are showing themselves more in these days than they have in the past and it seems as though there is a quickening of the pace. However, we would have to acknowledge that the LORD has a great amount of patience. He has waited so far 2,000 years, quite apart from what went before that. Maybe patience is a very important quality in the development of whatever is needful in the creative process on earth.
So we are not in any great hurry from the angelic standpoint. We see that the human aspect of the matter may feel that time is of the essence because it is apparently hovering on the brink, so to speak. The control however is present on earth. I think we have a greater sense of this now than heretofore. If the working of the spirit of God could have produced what has been produced to allow for what is now present over these thousands of years, it is not about to bow out of the picture and say, “Oh, well—couldn’t really bring it to fruition.” It is coming whether anybody likes it or not. We have been learning to like it. A lot of people haven’t been quite so sure. We have learned to like it because we begin to understand that it is necessary, and it is beautiful really, when we see what it is that is being brought to pass.
So we have a balanced view here. We are not taking some sort of arrogant stance to say, “Well, we did all this.” No—but we have something to do nevertheless, and we have been doing something—but because the spirit has been at work and certainly not through any human brilliance or effort. We find ourselves a part of what is happening. There is something in focus in the conscious sense and we see this now in particular focus, today especially so. Let us not fool ourselves into imagining that it is the only thing that is happening. If it was we would be in a bad way. There is the necessity for the provision of the continuing point of orientation. There is a point of orientation, whether it has been clearly seen by all or not. It has been acknowledged. It is the fact whether anyone likes it or not. So there is a point of orientation which is the reason why something can come together. If it wasn’t there, it wouldn’t come together, obviously so.
Because there was not an adequate point of orientation heretofore, it has never come together before—just enough to maintain life. Here is a form appearing which is capable of encompassing other forms and of allowing them to participate in a living organism in form on earth. There will be more to the form—and there will be more to the spirit than is now seen as the Emissary ministry. In other words, the spirit has some expanding to do relative to the form that is being brought forth. This is obviously so—we see the expansion necessary in ourselves as individuals to encompass what is putting in an appearance by reason of the form. But seen in this light, I am sure we can recognize that everything is really under control because all that has happened so far has happened because of the working of the spirit of God, and as I say, the spirit of God is not about to throw up its hands at this point and say, “No more; I can't do anymore.” It is just getting started, just finally something is beginning to emerge and here it is. I am sure all of us who participate in this spirit by which the form is being brought forth find ourselves rejoicing that this is happening at last. It’s been a long haul, but now it’s here. How thankful therefore we may all be, both angelically and in mind and heart, for what is transpiring. There are many very practical things to be taken into consideration and done.
Here is the spirit bringing forth at all levels. And we are here as angels to let it happen, and to provide our facilities on earth to let it happen. We all have minds and hearts and bodies by which these things take place. We all have responsibility in it, but we are constantly aware that our individual responsibility is not disassociated from the responsibility carried by others. So we always have this in consciousness. We never act unilaterally. If I offer something to you during these sessions that we share, I trust you realize that I am not acting unilaterally. What I offer comes because of you. We are both required and we share the positive and negative aspects of the truth of love in the expression of living, and behold, what is needful is born on that basis. Being born on that basis it is natural to all of us; we're none of us being imposed upon by anything. We delight to share whatever it is that is being born. Now this same delight needs to be known throughout all this developing form of the body which at the moment can be seen. It all comes together because there is one spirit, and in fact the representation of that one spirit.
We see this clearly enough for ourselves so that we never surrender that focus to anyone else, any other gathering of people who may in themselves be offering something that is all right, part of what is working out. We are always at the point where we belong. We have been trained for this reason. Now we don't need to say to people, “Well, the Emissaries provide the focus”—because maybe many of them don't in fact. But there needs to be those individual angels who form one focus of spirit to provide what is necessary—and they never relinquish that position. There must be this point of orientation. Everything is happening because this point of orientation is there. [greatcosmicstory.blogspot.com/2016/09/special-martincecil-september-16-1981.html] It wouldn’t happen if it wasn't there, and if we see this we see our own responsibility in the matter surely most vividly. We are absolutely essential to what is happening. This doesn't make us any better than anybody else because everybody else may participate in being essential, and they are beginning to awaken to this fact.
So we rejoice in all these things, but hold firmly the agreement that we know so that the point of spiritual focus on earth is steadfast, unwavering. And all who are coming may sense that point of orientation. For most it will simply be a sensing. For some there will be a seeing, and for those who see no doubt in season a greater participation in that point of orientation. We are to provide what is required of us by the Lord and we do that. And whether someone thinks it is good or bad makes very little difference. There are those who think the Emissaries are a focalization of the devil. Do you know that? Well it doesn't matter what anyone thinks, good or bad. It is what the fact is that matters, and as long as we keep the fact clear, that's it. We've got the job done from the standpoint of our own responsibility. This is not to say that we don’t have many things yet to do and many people to encompass—and a great deal of expanded understanding necessary in order to encompass them. But we do it from a firm foundation—the spirit of God. I am sure you have seen many areas of consideration that have arisen because of what we have been looking at that will necessarily need to be expanded in our consciousness in the days to come. So praise the Lord! This is the way the door is opened in fact for others, because it is opened in ourselves.
