The Communion Cup of the Everlasting Gospel
Thanksgiving Day Address 1996
Part 4
Let us consider the parable that I put forth concerning the mystery of the tares among the wheat:
| The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field: But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way. But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also. So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, “Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares?” He said unto them, “An enemy hath done this.” The servants said unto him, “Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up?” But he said, “Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them. “Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, ‘Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.’” - Matt. 13:24-30 |
When you give the Judgment Call, <1> untold numbers of my angels form a V around you; and they march in formation as they prepare to bind the fallen angels whose time is up. At that moment it is up to you to deliver my Judgment Call in the full power of the science of the spoken Word that the Messengers have taught you.
Use this call, as I have commanded you, so that my angels might gather the “tares” and bind them in bundles and burn them, and then gather the “wheat” into my barn. In this wise, my angels will bind the fallen angels and remove them from the earth!
Now call to the hosts of the Lord and the Seven Archangels, and empower them in your name to take the fallen angels to other systems of worlds or to the Court of the Sacred Fire, where Divine Justice shall be meted out to them. The deliverance of the people of earth from the seed of the Wicked One has been coming for tens of thousands of years. And today this deliverance is upon you!
Only give the Judgment Call and my legions shall bind them and take them from the earth! The Great Law requires that the citizens of the world call forth the judgment upon those who make war against the remnant of the seed of the Woman. These are they which keep the commandments of God and have my testimony. <2>
Guard Your Threefold Flame
Think of it! Think of the unlimited energy God gives you every day! And think of what can happen when earth’s people return to the daily ritual of the quickening of heart and mind, of the spiritual path and of the self-knowledge of their immortality.
Without the flame of immortality, which is another name for the threefold flame that burns on the altar of your heart, you have nothing to fall back on but the dust of which you are made. Therefore, guard the flame of your immortality, for it is your life–the only life that you can take with you into the kingdom of God. And from the I AM THAT I AM, that life is fed to you drop by drop over the silver cord from the very heart of hearts of Almighty God.
Know, then, what is real in you and what is unreal in you. And know for a certainty that your permanent reality resides in your threefold flame. Keep the flame. Do not snuff it out, whether in pride or in anger. If you lose your threefold flame, it may take you many centuries to gain it back. For until your Holy Christ Self reignites it and you have balanced the karma of snuffing it out, no Ascended Master will sponsor you on a one-on-one basis.
I know of a number of devotees in this Community who, through numerous episodes of pride and anger, snuffed out their threefold flame a long time ago. They felt the flame go out when it happened. Immediately they asked God for a penance, and ever since they have prayed without ceasing for that flame to be restored. These have seared in their memory that in an unguarded moment it is possible for one to lose this essential element of being. And their greatest concern is that they might come to the end of this life without having regained that divine spark.
So you see, beloved, the flame of your immortality is the most precious gift God has given you. And though it be God’s, he has given it to you to tend and to fan.
In the course of her service, the Messenger has noted that a number of people who have left the Path have coincidentally snuffed out their threefold flame. They had repeatedly played Russian roulette with their divine spark. Observing this phenomenon, the Messenger has grieved profoundly. Think about this, beloved: how many times can one play Russian roulette and win? It is impossible to know. Therefore when one plays the game, one plays to lose.
In your present state, you cannot know when a specific deed of darkness you commit will result in the loss of your threefold flame. If you want to be on the safe side, take nothing for granted. Once and for all, establish a path of humility and walk that path daily. Be the servant of the flame in all, even as you tend the flame upon the altar of your heart.
Guard the citadels of your nations. Guard the Union and guard the fifty states for Saint Germain. For he is still the father of our country and the sponsor of our Union, and in his sponsorship he truly bears the burdens of the nation.
From my heart, I send fire to the heart of every son and daughter of God. I do this now, beloved. Mark the time.<*> For as El Morya knows, the hours and the minutes tell the story of each astrological configuration. And I shall not soon take again from the fire of my heart and give it to those who ought to have tended their own flame and had it trimmed and burning brightly in honor of my coming. This I do once and possibly no more, for my service as avatar of the Piscean age is coming to a close, as I have said.
Thus if you have lost elements of your threefold flame, I give you hope that you might regain those elements year upon year as a tree increases its rings. Once again I give you opportunity, but only you can atone for the loss of a fragment of your flame. Beyond this, I say, you must take responsibility for your every vibration, word and deed.
Balance the ch’i<**> in your chakras, beloved, and strive for the goal of eternal life. All the good you may do on one side of the scale may be undone in a moment of being out of alignment with your threefold flame. And if you lose it, the loss you will feel will be heartrending.
Recall that when you were immortal and abode in the realms of light, there came a time when you made a conscious decision to follow the allure of fallen angels, who led you to the paths of mortality and death. And by and by you snuffed out that flame. And in good time Sanat Kumara took pity upon you and reignited your threefold flame so that you might once again pursue the goal of your immortality. <3>
Thus I have called you to return to the mountain of God, to Maitreya’s Mystery School, that you might realign your heart with Maitreya’s heart. Yes, I have called you to the heart of my father Maitreya, and I have called you to the very heart of your being.
What it all comes down to, beloved, is this: Do you or do you not have the rocket power to make your ascension in this life? That is the question. Ponder it. Ponder your immortality. Ponder what you have lost. And ponder how you can regain that which you have lost.
I, Jesus, seal you in your divine destiny in God, your Mighty I AM Presence. Your destiny will be challenging, as is everyone’s, and in some areas exceedingly hard. But where you have sown light, you shall reap light. And that light will uphold you hour by hour to the day of your victory.
Return Swiftly to the Altar
Thus, beloved, I also celebrate this Thanksgiving Day as a benchmark of Community achievement in your restructuring and reenergizing project. I look to individuals and I look to the Community as a whole. I desire you to fulfill your individual and Community destinies and to access the components of your being to that end.
And if you must go out from the Community for a season, then I pray that you will go swiftly and return swiftly. If you must be in the world for a number of years, then be not of the world except for the opportunity it gives you to balance karma, to serve to set life free, to espouse the cause of Saint Germain and to complete your education. Above all, secure your place, if possible, close to a Teaching Center, for there is spiritual, as well as physical, strength in numbers.
We have not established the Royal Teton Ranch and Maitreya’s Mystery School for naught. We have secured it because the day will come when you need it. And when you need it, beloved, I pray you will make your way back to Montana, to your Home of Light on earth and to the heart of your Guru Ma.
I, Jesus, bless all of you who are my disciples who find yourselves going out for a season. We enter a cycle of going out and a cycle of coming in, of sowing and reaping around the world and returning again to the altar of the Holy Grail. And as Guenevere blessed the knights of old when they went forth and when they returned, so receive the blessing of the Mother of the Flame when you go out. And when you return lay upon Maitreya’s altar that which you have sown and reaped.
All of you have the potential for greater things. All of you are potential candidates for the ascension. Do not lose sight of this, beloved. For although you have a timetable, God is also calling you to move on in the cycles of your victory. But in the final analysis, many are called but few are chosen for the ascension.
May the joy of my heart fill your heart this day–the joy and the laughter that know that God is in his holy place and that he is calling you to return to that place when you shall have fulfilled your reason for being on earth.
Do not fear the demons or the fallen angels. For in my name you have power over them. But you must exercise that power. Do not fear at all, beloved. For I will walk with you–you who take your leave of this ranch, and I will be with you along life’s way unto your return.
Again I remind you, there is a profound reason that we established this Ascended-Master retreat. Call it home. And in your home away from home, know that the starry bodies of the celestial hosts will guide and guard you each step of the way.
I, Jesus, call you to return to my Sacred Heart when you have fulfilled all things necessary to the completion of your cycles in the world. Come back to me, beloved! Meet me at the altar. And when you do, remember that I made you a promise that I would be with you in your goings out and in your comings in. I will fulfill that promise. And I pray fervently in your behalf that you will return to Maitreya’s Mystery School at the Royal Teton Ranch and at the appointed hour make your ascension, having fulfilled all things that the Lord thy God has required of you.
Now, beloved, I say to you who are able to carry Saint Germain’s message of the violet flame and of the age of Aquarius, go for it! And let my message of the Everlasting Gospel finally bring to the Christian world my teachings on karma and reincarnation. Therefore, I command you to go out two by two to the nations. For all must hear the Word of the Everlasting Gospel.
I salute you from the beginning to the ending of the ages that we have been together–from the golden ages of Atlantis to the abject darkness of the hour. I am your Elder Brother. Know, then, that the love flame of my Sacred Heart is always accessible to you when you love one another as I have loved you.
Truly, I AM your Jesus. I love you. And I shall be with you unto the end of the age and unto the fulfillment of the God-Victory of your soul.
So be it, beloved. Peace be with you in the name of the Holy Spirit. May you so internalize that Spirit that you walk and talk with him in the person of the Maha Chohan day by day, hour by hour.
Pax vobiscum.
