THE GREATER WORLD CHRISTIAN SPIRITUALIST CHURCH
THE ZODIAC MESSAGES
"THE COMING OF THE MESSIAH"
An Address given by Zodiac at Skegness Christian Spiritualist
Church on 8th December, 1929
-
"The Master wishes you to know that He has you under
His care. But remember that although God is the Lord
Creator, He cannot interfere with the gift of freewill
bestowed upon man. So even though I am sent with a
message, it is up to you to receive that message according
to your understanding. The future is open to me and
I see that great things must come to pass, so I would
impress upon you that if you turn from the truth now,
a time will come when although you may seek the truth,
you will be held back by obstacles that you have erected
between you and the light that never fades.
-
"I was an old man when I came face to face with the
great Life-Bringer, the Messiah, the One who should
save the world. Still the Spirit of God came upon me.
I looked upon Jesus of Nazareth and consciousness came
to me that He was indeed the promised Messiah, the
One sent by God to lead the erring generation into
the protection of truth and all it means.
-
"Those of old prophesied the coming of the Christ.
Bound by physical restrictions, pleased with their
own ideas and theories, many scorned the prophets and
few believed and chronicled what had been told to doubting
man.
-
"So it was that the Babe was born in Bethlehem. Those
who were the teachers of the day, who acclaimed themselves
as instructors, refused to believe their own sacred
records and the Child was overlooked, the Boy was forgotten
and the Man was crucified.
-
"The Bible records in detail the incidents of that
time. Mary was chosen because of the purity of her
heart and because she sought to follow the law of God.
Into the world came the infant Jesus, filled with Holy
Spirit, the Spirit of God that was promised to raise
humanity, to cleanse the earth and to bring light into
darkened places.
-
"Joseph played his part in the protection of Mary and
the infant. For that he was blessed indeed, for when
he left the physical body behind, God showed him how
the past could be rectified and the blessing enhanced
again and again.
-
"I remember those times, and Joseph and many more gather
around to give you their gifts, their powers, and to
seek to impress upon you that the Christ, the Messiah
- Who came over two thousand years ago - walks the
earth plane today. For God never leaves His children
forsaken. God, as the Christ, demonstrates Himself
in the life of everyone who seeks to do their duty.
-
"If you could see the manifestation of Holy Spirit
that is upon the earth today, then you would not need
me to tell you that the Master walks among you, for
you would see Him. In your hour of trial or of sorrow,
the Christ - the Bearer of the sorrows of the world
- draws close, throwing over you the balm of His illimitable
love. Yet again, those who receive do not recognise
Him.
-
"There are those who believe that the Master shall
come again in glory and rule all hearts and minds.
This is a promise of the Most High. This law, this
rule is worked out on every plane where life dwells
and man has existence. The earth is but one condition
out of countless conditions, worlds, spheres, planets,
where the children of God are going through various
experiences. Some are greatly advanced in comparison
to those upon the earth. Others are even more bound
than you today. Alas there are some who have lost all
semblance of so-called human form. They are repulsive
in every sense of the word. But within the casket there
is the Holy Spirit of God and although now they bear
no resemblance to the children of God, in time they
will return to their Divine inheritance and all shall
be as God intends.
-
"In all those worlds, when the appointed time comes,
Christ will be manifested for all to see. These conditions
are being prepared on earth today, by the dedication
of those seeking to serve their fellow creatures. In
the body or free from the body, they shall witness
the coming of the Christ in all His glory. Before the
coming of the Christ the earth must be cleansed of
its materialism, its selfishness and its greed for
possessions. Those who turn from the truth, who ignore
the teachings laid down in the sacred book and fail
in their duty towards others, are keeping back the
coming of the Christ in all His glory. When the earth
span is over for them they will, with sorrow and anguish,
have to work out the past.
-
"So little instruction is available to you because
the teachers and the preachers have not followed the
pathway of sacrifice laid down by the Christ. The time
has come when those who will, must take up the cross
and follow Him. They will be beacons of light for countless
thousands upon the earth. In time their numbers shall
increase to thousands and millions because God is not
mocked and the Spirit within cannot be denied forever.
-
"Although this may sound stern, you must realise that
this is not the time for soft words. All around you
are others, careless, heedless of the unseen enemies
who are working for their downfall. It is the time
for warning, the time for giving out the truth: 'Beware,
take care.' The Messiah shall come again so that those
still in the physical body - and with the limited sight
of that body - shall witness the coming and the brightness
of those who accompany the great Joy Bringer. But the
coming of the Christ is hindered by the doubts of those
on the earth. Those who are similar to the ones of
old deny the coming of the Christ in His glory. You
have your records and they have their records. No one
can claim ignorance for the promise is laid out for
all to read.
-
"Children of the light and children of the half-light,
do not shirk your duty and do not turn from the message.
The servant is honoured by the message that he carries
to others. You in turn can be messengers of the Christ
and others shall bless your name. Go amongst your friends,
the doubters, the ignorant ones, the careless and thoughtless,
and speak the truth which is of God. Warn them that
great things are coming to pass upon the earth so that
the conditions can be purified sufficiently for the
coming of the Christ.
-
"As you go, although others may laugh and turn your
words to scorn, you shall be aware that those of old
will return to encourage and recharge you. The seed
that you have scattered shall bear flower and fruit,
if not during the earth span then in the condition
into which the individual shall pass.
-
"Some plough, others cast the seed and others reap
the golden grain. Who shall say which act has drawn
the greatest blessing? It is not for us to choose our
part. It is ours to do the next thing - and the next
- and leave the rest to God.
-
"In these conditions the plough is needed and a few
seeds shall be sown. Workers, do not think of the harvest,
for you are sowing for God, and the reaping - you shall
see and find when the physical body is no more - shall
surpass your highest expectations, on condition that
you go in faith, if you force the plough where the
ground is hardest and do not weary under the toil and
strain. Then the harvest will be plentiful.
-
"When the earth garment is cast from those who refuse
to listen, they will recall the words of the preachers,
the teachers and find the Christ they forgot to seek.
Think not of the messenger but of the message. Christ
is here! Lift up your hearts. Let the past go, and
if yesterday held selfishness then tomorrow let it
be sacrifice.
-
"I bless the seers. Hold up the lamp of faith and fear
not, challenge your enemies and prepare the way for
the coming of the Christ. Raise the hearts and minds
of men and show them that they are children of the
Most High
-
"Awake! Give out but do not seek nor ask return. God
is so generous that the return is there before you
begin the work. When you sacrifice, you are drawing
upon the power of the Christ in order to make that
sacrifice. In the Hereafter, joy comes because the
power was there and the guidance was followed. The
Christ walks amongst the people of the earth, blessing,
healing, recharging, urging them on, and entreating
them to seek for better things.
-
"Seek for better things. Let your homes be temples
of peace, demonstrating the Spirit of God, and the
golden rain of Holy Spirit shall fall upon you. Your
gifts shall be increased and your powers enhanced.
You will laugh at the sacrifice and call it joy, for
the release has come within. No longer are you merely
human, you are children of the Most High, and the King
gives to each child that which is of His Holy Self.
-
"The message of love, of healing and of consolation
goes out throughout the earth and to planes of consciousness
far beyond. The Christ is coming! But the Master cannot
come as He has promised until His children are willing
to receive Him. Your part is clear. Seek to cleanse
your hearts and minds. As you strive so shall you become
conscious of the messengers of light who keep step
with you. However mundane your daily work, however
humble your task, the angels of the Most High regard
it as an honour and privilege to help you, to guard
you and to keep you under the Light which is of God.
-
"Our Father and Mother God is very generous. By seeking
to battle with your lesser self, you are making it
possible to gain happiness and peace hitherto unknown.
The way is being opened to you to allow the gifts of
the Spirit to enter your home, and once Holy Spirit
is there, sorrow must take its departure. The troubles
of daily life no longer cause dismay or despair. You
think of the Christ - His poverty, His work, and the
many betrayals of others - and realise that the road
of the Master is the best and the sweetest.
-
"The Spirit within you will lead you into truth in
unending measure, truth without barriers and which
never ends. Leave the harvest to God. The ploughman
has gone in front. I have scattered a few seeds, and
God shall hold the harvest of that which you seek to
do.
-
"I bless you in the name of the Christ, the Beloved
of our hearts. I bless you in the name of the Messiah,
and of the little Babe born in a manger in Bethlehem.
I bless you by the power of Holy Spirit and place upon
you the mark of the children of God. Peace be within
and peace be all around. Take up your cross, not as
a burden but as a support that keeps your shoulders
firm. Thus you can meet your enemies undismayed, no
longer a shirker but a soldier, one of the great army
under God."
