1 of God as All Reality and Light and Life and Truth, withdrawing Himself from their Souls as Life, that caused Adam and Eve to hide themselves from the Lord God-to seek Darkness and Death. It was the consciousness in the Soul that God was withdrawing Himself as the Light and Life from the Soul that made the Soul conscious of Darkness and Death. When God was manifested in the Soul as Life, the Soul had the correct conception of God as Life. When God was withdrawn from the Consciousness Soul as Life, the Soul worshipped the senses as gods. And in all days as men have indulged the Lust of the Flesh, the serpent-Sin-they have felt God withdrawing Himself from their Souls as Life; and have heard the voice of the Lord God-the Absence of God as Life from their Souls speaking unto them, and their Souls have wandered in outer Darkness and Death, ceasing to reflect God as the only Life, and have worshipped the Senses as Death. It was the Lord God and not God-the Absence of God as Life in the Soul-that called unto Adam and Eve to answer for their sins. It was the Absence of God as Life in the Soul that caused them to realize that they were dead spiritually. When their Souls ceased to reflect God as the only Life, they were conscious of Death-Gen. 3: 9-13. It was the Lord God and not God, that cursed the serpent and the earth, sin and the flesh, and put enmity between the woman and the serpent; and the seed of the woman and the seed of the serpent, and said unto the woman, "She should bring forth children in sorrow" and unto Adam, that the ground (flesh) was "cursed for his sake; and unto dust he should return." Gen. 3: 4-19. It was the Lord God, the Absence of God, as Life in the Consciousness of the Soul as the result of Sin, that pronounced the verdict of Darkness and Death upon man. It was the Lord God-the Absence of God, as the All Life in the consciousness of the Soul, and not God the All Life in the Presence of the Soul, that turned them out of the Garden of Eden-from the Presence of God as Life into a state of the Senses-where Soul ceased to reflect God as the only Life. It was the Lord God-the Absence of the Presence of God as the All Life in the Soul-that placed the flaming sword at the Garden-Lust of the Flesh, which turned every way, and the cherubims (the Sex and Lust Senses) at the East of the Garden to keep man from the Tree of Life, from the conscious realization of God as Life within the Soul; and not God the ever Present and all Life-Gen. 3: 23-24. Since the creation of the Unreal, the Sex-Lust Senses of the Flesh-as result of Sin, all Mortal creation has travailed and mourned, and waited for the day of deliverance from the Sex Senses-waiteth for the day when the Father shall again manifest Himself as the All Reality and Life. Since rebellion and sin, when God withdrew Himself as Life and Reality-Darkness, Death and the Unreal have hovered over the Souls of men spiritually dead-the serpent-sex-the lust of the flesh has poured its poison into the Souls of men and they are unconscious of God as Life do not reflect Him as the only life. The Christ came to call them back to Life from the Unreal to the Real, from outer darkness to the Presence of God as Life. His Church is composed of the souls that have been called back to Life-to the Presence of God as Life. The word church comes from the Greek term Ecclessia-to call out-the Souls that have been called out from Darkness and spiritual death of the Senses to the Light and Life of Spirit, into the Presence of God as the only Life, constitutes the Church. They are elected-they are the "elect" -they have been called out from the Unreal-the Senses -Death, to the Real-Life-Spirit-and that old serpent, the lust of the flesh, "that would deceive the very elect if it were possible," would call these souls back from the Presence of God as Light and Life, into outer darkness and death of the Senses of the Flesh. The Soul that has been called out from this Night of Darkness and Death of the Unreal into the Presence of God as the All Reality and Life lives in the conscious realization of God as Life, and has complete power over the serpent, lust, sin, sickness and death. Such a Soul is of the seed of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob-is a Christian. The Christ said "In my name ye shall tread upon serpents, (carnal thoughts) heal the sick and raise the dead." In His name the Unreal-the Senses-Darkness and Death, surrender to the Real-Spirit-Light and Life, to God-the Divine Mind- the only Life. "The Heavens and the Earth shall pass away"-the Earth that the Lord God "cursed"—the Flesh-the dominion of Sex-the consciousness of the Soul that God as the All Life is Absent from the Soul as Life. The consciousness of the serpent and matterthe Unreal shall cease; and we shall behold a "New Heaven and a New Earth"-a Spiritual Heaven and a Spiritual Earth-Spirit and Life the consciousness of the Presence of God as the All Life in the Soul as Life. The Real-Spirit and Life-shall be ushered in and the Unreal-Senses-matter and death-the Sex Sensesshall be banished from consciousness of the Soul. God as the All Mind and Life shall be Present in the Soul as Life, and not the Lord God-the Absence of God as the All Light and Mind form the Soul. The Creation of the Lord God shall pass away-Sex-the Senses—that which appears and is not Real, and the Creation of God, that which is Real-Spirit and Life, shall be ushered in as Eternal Day, and there is no Sex and Death in that land of Life. The Unreal-the Senses-the Consciousness of Sin-Sex-sickness, matter and death in the Soul, cannot exist where the Reality of God as the All Life and Light is Present in the Consciousness of the Soul. The Unreal gives way to the All Life. Error is the Absence of Truth; Darkness is the Absence of Light; Death is the Absence of Life; Sin-the Serpent-can only exist in the Consciousness of Soul, in the Absence of the Consciousness of God as the All Holy and Perfect Life from the Soul. The Presence of the Deity as Jehovah (the Lord God) in the Consciousness of the Soul is Life-the Absence of the Deity as Jehovah (the Lord God) from the Consciousness of the Soul is the Sex Lust Senses-Death. Man has not any inherent Life. But in the Conscious Presence of God-man reflects God-the All Life. The Serpent-Lust-is the veil that separates man from the Conscious Presence of God-the All Life-which is Spiritual Death. Truth is Reality and the correct association of Ideas. When the Serpent is absent from the Consciousness of the Soul, man realizes God as Life and conceives God as Mind-Spirit and Life. When the Serpent is present in the Consciousness of the Soul, man is conscious of the senses as Death and conceives the senses to be real and worships them as gods-as Death. This is the incorrect association of Ideas. It is the conception of Life in matter in the senses. The misconception of the Unreal for the Realthe senses for Spirit. The Sex and Lust Senses (Mortal-Mind) conceives Life to be in Matter. This is Error-It is the Incorrect Association of Ideas-It is the Conception of God as Material-It is Idolatry-All Idolatry is within the Sex and Lust Senses. Idolatry is Sex Worship; and Sex Worship is Death. There were no Sex Disease and Death, until Sex Worship was conceived in thought, desire and Consciousness of the Soul. CHAPTER II. Creation is of dual nature-Spiritual and Physical. There is a mental and a physical; a spiritual and material man; a physical and a metaphysical man. The spiritual man is immortal; the physical man is mortal; the spiritual man is made in God's image; and the physical man is contrary to and the opposite of the spiritual man. The spiritual man cannot know the material universe. Neither can the material man know the spiritual universe. The physical and material man has his physical universe. The physical and material man has his physical senses by which he knows and realizes the physical universe-the senses of touch, sight, hearing, smell and taste. Likewise, the spiritual man has his spiritual senses through which he knows, understands and realizes the spiritual universe. In reality there is but one man, and he is spiritual, and one Creation and that is spiritual. The physical man and Creation is the result of sin. The Absence of the real in mind and the Consciousness of the Soul. The Physical Man and Material Creation-are Mortal Concepts and were produced in Consciousness, when Sin-Sex Lustwas manifested in Consciousness. When Sin-Sex LustShall cease to exist in Consciousness, Mortal Concepts and the Material Creation will not exist in consciousness. It is impossible for the spiritual man to understand, comprehend or know the physical and material universe through the spiritual senses. Likewise, it is impossible for the physical and meterial man to know, comprehend and understand the spiritual universe through the physical senses. The physical universe is controlled by sex, and there is no sex in spirit Life. The Physical Life is Cell Life-Soul or Spiritual Life is Mind-there is no Mind in Matter-All Real Life is beyond the Material Senses and Cell Life-and is in Mind. The spiritual and the physical creations-or rather the spiritual and physical worlds, for each is separate and |
