LIGHT 2
As
we begin to have a deeper conception of God, the musty veil of darkness is drawn
to one side, and destroyed by the divine light and illumination of Christ.
The
Christ Light is the LIGHT which illumines every man--bringing into focus the
desires, thoughts and ideas of the Creator.
Appropriate
work calls forth this phenomena--the true Light which enlightens every man
coming into the world. He also states that that Light is the Light of man.
Scientifically
speaking, light is a form of radiant energy that acts upon the retina of the
eye. This energy is transmitted at a velocity of about 186,000 miles per second
by wave-like motion, or vibratory motion. This is its relative speed in its
travel in our earth’s atmosphere.
This
light is mainly from the Sun of God, that which causes things to grow. Light
moves at a very high rate of vibration.
In
St. Matthew 5:14, Jesus says, "You are the light of the world." A city
cannot be hid. Jesus is telling us that our spirituality is the very life of
nature--that Light power of our magnetic structure demonstrates the force and
power of God to all the universe.
Being
the Light of the world, we must demonstrate Christ to all beings. This is truly
the Light, which enlightens every man coming into the world.
Jesus
said if your eye be single, your body will be full of light--meaning if all your
vision, all your understanding, all your knowledge, be one in spirit, then that
great Light of Christ will surround you with its loving power and keep you
healthy, wealthy, and wise.
Practice
seeing this Light by using the knowledge given to you in the lessons on
Meditation.
In
Paul’s experiences, in Acts 9, it records that suddenly, a light flashed from
heaven; he fell to the ground, and he heard a voice. Paul had received the first
degree of Illumination. His mind started to become spiritual, and he was now
born of the Light.
This
Light is what is need in us. Then, all other things in our rate of vibration
will begin to glow and grow. For light, even spiritual Light, is issued forth
from the solar ray. It is this ray that gives life to the planet Earth.
By
understanding this, we understand how God spiritualizes the Earth through His
perfect manifestation--Man--who, in reality, is the image and likeness of the
Creator--God.
In
the 1st Epistle of John, this message is given, "We have heard from Him,
and proclaim to you, that God is light, and in Him there is no darkness at
all."
If
we say we are in fellowship with Him, and we walk in darkness, we lie, and the
truth is not in us. Walking in Light is walking with God in that we are in tune
with the infinite Mind--our Father/Mother Creator. The Word of Power--the
spiritual word--is our light and our lamp.
King
David mentions this fact in the most scientific book of the Bible, Psalm 119,
where he states, "Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my
path."
If
we follow this Light, and become children of the Light, we shall have
fellowship--one with another. It is the purpose of the Holy Order of MANS (and
the
1st
John concludes, and so do we, with these words, "And we know the Son of God
has come and has given us understanding to know Him, who is true, and we are in
Him, who is true, in His Son, Jesus Christ. This is the true God and eternal
Life."
Now, students...Find the Light. Share it with humanity. Watch, and pray.
Amen.
