Spiritual messengers of God, Aka, July 29, 1970

The account in Luke 2:8–14 tells us of angels who appeared with tidings of joy which will be to all people:

“Now there were in the same country shepherds living out in the fields, keeping watch over their flock by night. And behold, an angel of the Lord stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were greatly afraid. Then the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people. For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. And this will be the sign to you: You will find a Babe wrapped in swaddling cloths, lying in a manger.”

And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying:

“Glory to God in the highest,
And on earth peace, goodwill toward men!”

Almost 2,000 years later, the Father has sent His angels again to bring a message of good news for all who wish to receive.

You can read how this happened here and here.

This writing is to share some of their messages with you of “good news of great joy which will be to all” who wish to hear. They were transcribed during 19 years in which spiritual messengers of God spoke through an unconscious man they called their instrument, from a small town nestled in the desert mountains appropriately named Globe.

Here are some words the spiritual messengers of God told to us from 1970 to 1989 about the birth and preparation for the Messiah’s coming. The quotes are simply gathered in order, by the dates on which they were spoken.

We have come but for one purpose, to prepare a way for the coming of the Messiah.”

Our Father has sent many messengers (and spiritual messengers) to many throughout time. The spiritual messengers of God have come, not to change the laws of the prophecies, but they have come for this time, to show man their fulfillment.

Our Father has many mansions and there are many ways of knowing Him. He is called by many names in many languages.The angels’ message is not meant to cause confusion or to take anyone from their own faith or way of knowing God, but only to add to what is already there.

May their message be a blessing and bring us hope and faith in the times ahead, for those who wish to hear.

“New words shall be written upon the sky, but they must be written in men’s hearts first.’

Their words (in bold, gathered for you to know them) begin: But as I have spoke of the birth of a child, the birth of the return of the Messiah of earth — a child shall be born, for he shall lead the souls of the earth plane, as he shall lead the souls of our plane. And as I have said before, and I say “not as I, but as we,” for we are here to prepare a way for his coming. If our coming is successful, then all shall be in readiness and God’s plan shall be told to thee in completion. Now — now shall be the time of the Cherub. (Spiritual messengers of God, Aka, June 6, 1970)

Now, we have told you before of whence man came.

Now we shall tell you, as we have said before, that man’s soul shall be as a ladder, and with man and his free choice, he may either climb up or down this ladder. Now, we should tell thee of what thy call karma.

But first, we should answer a question which has been in all of thy minds. You ask from whence we came. And we should say to you, as has been said before, that we come as messengers, and therefore, we are not great. But God is great.

And thy ask of this soul, Ray, in which we come through — one moment, please. Yes, now that is better; now all souls are in accord. And as thy ask of soul Ray — and where shall his place be? — And thy ask why we do not bear thee great gifts? Yet, we give the gift greater than all to thee, the gift of God and His kingdom.

And in His kingdom, where do we fit? And this we should say, for we are not important, only now to God, as all men are important to God. And we speak of men as three, for without the spirit, the soul, and the man, thy have nothing.

For if we gave soul Ray great jewels, great wealth, then he would be great in the eyes of man, but less great in the eyes of God. For even as this finishes, he shall enter the kingdom of God in not the highest plane.

“So,” thy ask, “Could this be his subconscious mind?” Nay. “Then could this be, as thy would call it, of superconscious mind?” Nay. For the road that we walk upon is the same road as the road by the Sea of Gallea, for we are here to prepare a way. Can thy understand this?

“Yes, that answers a number of questions.”

Now, we would talk, as thy would call it, thy karma. As man is born and born again, think thee of Christ, of Jesus, and what he did say: “I have come not to destroy the works of Moses, not to destroy the commandments, but to — I have come not to destroy what has been before, only to make clear in the temple of God, which is man, that God should not be forsaken. Then, think thee, as John the Baptist was Isaiah, then who would have been the physical body of Christ?

As thy are born on this earth, thy are born with free choice, for before birth thy know of the knowledge which has been behind. Therefore, for the life in the future, look from whence thy came.

Did not Jesus say, “Fear not, for what can man but do but kill thy body? He cannot kill thy soul. He cannot kill thy spirit. Only God may do this.”

But only man himself may destroy the spirit. And by destroying the spirit, is he not but a lost soul? Has he nowhere to go, but to search and search again and never find what he searches for? For he may never, then, enter the kingdom of God. Therefore, he will look for the kingdom of Lucifer. Yes, and as he looks, he should see not. For, as thy would call them, “hell,” man would make because remember, only God cares for thy spirit, thy soul, and thy man. As thy would call him, “the devil?” all he has, then, is a lost soul. And what use has he for nothing?

Then we would think that if thy would remember the works of God, and follow — and follow the path of God, what has been buried shall be uncovered. Where there was darkness there shall be light forever and ever. And there is thy karma.

And there is one among you who says, “Should I forsake my church that I belong to?” Nay. For does not our Father have many mansions?

Worship your God in thy own way. For we would say, it is better to worship God in an open field than it is to worship God, and not mean it.

When thy pray, should thy recite something that someone else has thought that means nothing to you? Too often, man forgets that God loves thee.

Too often, man would think, “Should I build a temple of material things to God, and buy his love?” For, we would say to you, did not Jesus go to the temple in Jerusalem and cast out there the money lenders, and drive from the temple the animals who were there to be sold.

And did he not say to them, “Destroy this temple, and I should build it back in three days?” Then, what did Jesus mean when he said of this? For the temple of God is in man. And no matter where Jesus went, the temple of God went with him.

Each of you, in your own way, are God’s children. And He loves all of thee.

When thy speak to thy Father, do not bow and scrape to Him. Walk up to Him with love in thy heart, and speak what is in thy heart, and God will listen. If thy speak what others have said, that meant something to them, but nothing to you, so, therefore, your prayer would be false.

Now, thy ask — one moment, please.

Yes.

Now thy ask, “What shall be the work of thy disciples?” And we should say, build thee a temple in each man for God, and therefore, thy would prepare a way for his coming.

For as we have said before, there would be a thousand years of peace upon this earth, but think thee not of the years as they count them; think thee not. [But] as the years as God counts them.

We have spoke before of the day of the Cherub, and therefore, we say to you, it is here. If thy doubt our coming, look to the east from which we came, and there, for all to see — proof of our coming.

Comet Bennett shone brilliantly in the heavens since April 1970 when the spiritual messengers of God arrived and began to speak. (You can read about it here.)

Now, there are many questions on thy mind.

“Yes, Aka, we have many questions tonight. You have spoken of ‘the time of the Cherub.’ Does this have any connection with the child that is to come? Is the child already here?”

The child shall be known to thee when the time is right, for we protect this child, and God protects this child.

“Is that what you meant by ‘the time of the Cherub?’”

Nay. “The time of the Cherub,” think thee of thy cherub. And the Cherub shall be the highest angel in God’s kingdom. For they have come to many parts of thy earth.

Think thee this — as we have said before that Aka was born at the same time as soul Ray, therefore, could he not be born in five places upon this earth?

But yet, thy cherub shall be known to each of you in it’s own way.

And we say to you, look to the east, for there shall be the light of God.

Remember, for those who look, we would say this — the eyes are the light of man.

And for those who look and cannot see, then therefore, there is no light. But think thee not we speak of a blind man, for a blind man sees the light also. For those who look to the east and do not want to see, then they shall not see. And those who listen and cannot hear, then they can not hear.

For our message is for those who may see and hear, and want to hear. And the light in the east and the Cherub shall only be there for those who believe in God, our Savior.

We must ask for permission. Now, if thy would wait; one moment, please.

Yes.

Yes, we would say to you this, the child has been born. (Listen.)

Yes.

Yes, and thy say to us, “Therefore, if the child is born, why cannot we see him and worship him now?”

Be patient, for in God’s plan the time is not yet now, but soon. For we must prepare a way, and therefore, [cough] and therefore, when the time is right, our Lord shall tell us, and we shall tell thee, for all things will be known to you in time. (June 12, 1970)

There are many times that God has shed teardrops for His children, not only on your world, but upon many worlds. And that this world shall overcome its karma and that God’s work shall be complete, for, as we have said before, we are not great, we are but messengers of God, and we are here to prepare a way. For there shall be a thousand years of peace upon thy earth, but not as thy would count, but as God would count. And the time grows near that the Messiah shall be known to thee; therefore, sometimes we should be, or seem to be, impatient for our search for souls. (June 16, 1970)

As we have said before, this knowledge is — soon — all parts of it, shall rise again. What was dark shall be lighted; what was buried shall be uncovered, for as we have said before, now is the time of the Cherub — for we are here to prepare a way — for we seek a place that the Messiah may enter. The time that he shall be known to you grows close. Therefore, our time grows smaller. If thy would look at the last words that Christ, Jesus, said before he left his physical body, then, to return to it, you will understand of what we speak of. (July 1, 1970)

If thy would help but one soul to grasp this. This thy must understand — we are here for God’s work. In doing God’s work we are here to prepare a way. This way is a war of the minds, for the Messiah — for when he is made known — may reign for a thousand years, and we speak of a thousand years, not as you would count them, but as God would count them. (July 3, 1970)

Take of these as they should mean to you, in thy heart and thy soul. Do not add from or take away from any of this. For we, as we have said before, are here to prepare a way for the Messiah, that he may enter into thy world. And as he enters on this earth, so shall it be in heaven. For at that time it shall become God’s time. And remember this — our Lord shall have the last word in all things. (July 29, 1970)

As we have said before, the time of the Cherub is now. Therefore, first we should tell thee, as thy have known before, of our Father, and our Father’s plan. That all may come in accord, we would tell thee that the time of the Messiah is close at hand. (August 10, 1970)

Now, as we have said before, we are here to prepare a way for the coming of the Messiah; therefore, we, in ourselves, are not important. We are important to God. Our message, should it be heeded, shall save your earth, as thy would know it. But remember, our Father made all things, both of the heaven and earth. And those things that belong on the earth shall stay on the earth, and those things that belong in heaven shall stay in heaven. But remember, your earth is only one of many, and your people are only one of many. (September 5, 1970)

The time we prepare you for in the time of one, in the time of the Messiah, this is the time of our Father. (October 5, 1970)

And this time, our Father should have the blood of the Lamb upon your land, for your Messiah shall walk with thee, in every corner of your earth and in every corner of your mind. Then, be ye transformed into our kind, into our likeness.

Can you understand of which we speak? (October 9, 1970)

For as the Messiah was born before, he shall be born again. (October 9, 1970)

For remember these words, for there shall be a new heaven and a new earth. And remember these words, we are not great, we are only here to prepare a way, for soon shall be the time of the Messiah. (December 11, 1970)

Now you reach a time upon your earth when all of your souls upon your earth think of the blessed time of the birth of Christ, or of Jesus Christ, as you would know him. Our Father thinks of this time as the births of all Christ in man.

This was the thing that Jesus knew as he lay upon the cross, and died and gave his mortal body into man. But also, this was the thing our Father knew when He took up even the mortal body of the one known as Christ. Remember, as He gave life into Adam and Adam developed, think thee in this way, that Buddha, that Mohammed, that Jesus Christ were of one. As Jesus went into the wilderness for forty days and nights and tasted temptation, he faced what he had been before. And as the Lamb’s blood flowed upon your earth and changed there unto the Holy Spirit, it touched those who would open their heart.

Then take this message into thee for all man to see, to wear it as a shield, not to keep others out of thy heart, but as an entrance way for all mankind. Only in this way can the seed bear yeast and spread upon your earth, and give love, and do away with this thing known as hatred, and do away with these petty things upon your earth, for only in understanding others may you give this love.

For those who would worship the birth of Christ, remember of his words, “For I have come, not to change what has been upon your earth, but to show you what has been before.”

And think thee of these words — we are not great, we are here only to do the work of our Father and prepare the way for the Messiah of your earth, and then there shall be a new heaven and a new earth. But remember these words. Your earth shall not die, it shall change, and the people upon your earth shall change with it or perish from your earth.

Can thy understand of which we say? (December 18, 1970)

And we shall tell thee of the time. And in this time, your heaven and earth stood still, for God stretched our His mighty hand and touched your earth. And as He touched your earth, a Messiah was born unto the one known as Mary. (April 23, 1971)

Remember, it is a burden of love, for if a place should be made ready upon your earth for the coming of the Messiah, then many hands shall be needed and many minds. For have we not said before, all that is covered shall be lighted again, and not one stone upon your earth shall not be turned, for our Lord’s hand is again upon thy earth. (April 23, 1971)

But the children of God shall fear not, for the angels shall hover above your earth and gather, as once before, the lambs of earth. And those who resist the mark of the Beast shall live again in God’s kingdom. And for those who shall wear the mark of the God, and who were in the Book of the beginning and who are in the Book of this time, for their descendants, our Father has promised a thousand years of peace upon your earth. But remember, this time shall come, not as you count, but as our Father should count. And once again, the Messiah shall walk your earth and give blessings. [See The Revelation, chapters 12–22.]

But it shall be different, for now we shall give thee this message. For as before, the Messiah walked in five placed, he shall not this time upon this coming. And for those who should wear the mark of Christ, the Lamb, their descendants and their descendants forevermore shall dwell in the house of the Lord. And temptation shall be taken from their path, for at this time that that dwells in man, which is Lucifer, shall be no more.

And all the Jewish people of the earth shall bow before Christ. [See Zechariah 12:9–14.] (May 2, 1971)

Then we would say these things into thee. Our coming was not meant to cause fear or confusion into thee; our coming was for the preparation for the coming of the Messiah.

Therefore, we would say these words into thee, blessed are those who may wait. Blessed are those with patience. Blessed are the flowers [followers] of our Father. But remember, as we have said before, we shall allow no one to interfere with this work, for remember, we may do nothing without our Father’s permission.

Can thy understand of which we speak?

“Yes, Aka.”

Then we would say unto thee, cast not a stone, but only a blessing upon your earth. (May 14, 1971)

Remember of our promise unto thy descendants. The star shall be kept, but keep thy vows into our Father, for in your time thy shall see the coming of the Messiah. You shall see your world bow before him. And our Father shall give all thy descendants blessings. (May 14, 1971)

For remember, we are not great, we are here to prepare a way for the coming of the Messiah. (May 21, 1971)

And we say unto these of the churches of your earth, prepare thee the way for the Messiah. Prepare thee a way that our Lord should fill His many mansions with His children again.

“YEA, YEA,” sayeth the Lord unto thee, “COME INTO MY HOUSE AND DWELL AND DRINK, AND I SHOULD COME INTO THINE AND DWELL AND DRINK, AND GIVE BLESSINGS INTO THY CHILDREN’S CHILDREN.”

For upon your earth, the rivers shall flow again in this time. (May 28, 1971)

And we should say again, drink [a little] of our [wine.] Open thy heart and soul, that we may give healing.

And these words our Father should say unto thee, “PREPARE YOUR EARTH FOR THE COMING OF THE MESSIAH, AND YOUR MISSION SHALL BE COMPLETE.” Prepare thy earth in such a manner that they should greet him as their savior, and not as thy slave.

If thee should do of our bidding, then our Father should give of thee and thy descendants the help that is needed. And upon these words we should say of this vow — forever upon your earth shall be peace. (May 28, 1971)

As thy walk forth in thy daily life, shine forth the light of our Father. Let it come from thy heart, and thy eyes, and thy mouth when thy speak, and therefore, the time of the Cherub shall not be wasted, for let is go forth into the time of the Messiah. For as we have said before, place before thee the sign of the ankh. Wear it in proud reverence of thy work, and think unto it as the sun’s rays come upon thy earth, and from thy body, let it flow forever inward, but though it should flow inward, let it flow outward. Do not imprison this source. (May 28, 1971)

As we have said before, now is the time of the Cherub. And for the one who should ask our Father — and that that has been said before shall be said again — for we are not great; we are here to prepare a way for the coming of your Messiah. Where no light did shine before, light shall shine again. Upon your earth shall become new again, and therefore, there shall be a new heaven and a new earth. For as the rivers flow, so shall the mighty force of our Lord flow upon your earth.

As we have said before, now is the time of the Cherub, for now the seven angels dwell above your earth. [See The Revelation, chapters 4–22.]

And think not that we of the Thirteen should sit in judgment, for we are not here for that purpose. We are here to prepare the minds of men for the time that the Messiah should come upon your earth, and to fulfill the words that were spoken by our Lord when He did promise unto thee a thousand years of peace. But remember, this time shall come not as you count, but as our Father, your God, your Father, did count. And as He made thee this coveth, all of the heaven opened upon your earth, for did He not promise unto thee, “For thee should be in our likeness, of our kind?” [See The Revelation, chapters 19–22; Acts, chapters 1–2; and Genesis 1:26–28.]

You think not that the words spoken unto thee are new? Nay.

“NAY,” sayeth the Lord.

These words are not new, for has not a new Book been written? And did He not promise that all those in the Book of the beginning, and were in the Book of the ending, therefore, should live forever, and therefore, eat from His table and drink of His wine? [See The Revelation, chapters 19–22.]

Then look out among you. Cast no stones, for remember, you can destroy nothing upon your earth, for all things come from the same source. You may only change its form, as the Lord changed the form of each animal upon your earth, and the fowl that flies upon the earth, and all things within the earth. (June 11, 1971)

Through prayer and meditation, bring thyself in accord with this one thy would know of Jesus Christ, for thy will see the time again of his entry, for were there not those who choose to remain upon the earth, and therefore, be here again in the coming of the Messiah? For your earth, to save this earth, did he not die once? (June 25, 1971)

First, we should say unto thee, remember unto these words our Father has spoken, for the prophecies of the Lord shall flow upon your earth as your rivers, and from your rivers into the mighty oceans and to the many lands.

Thy have asked this question, and so permission has been given to answer of the same. Of your first question, we say unto thee, we are not mighty. We are but the messengers of your Father, your God.

Thy ask, are we but angels? And we say unto thee, this word of yours, angels, is a word that was manifested by those of your own. We are but instruments of our Father. Our Father sent us for those who have reached the Christ state and for those who would prepare the way for the coming of the Messiah. We were the first upon your earth, and as the first, and the last shall be first.

There are some among us who have walked upon many of your worlds. But all of us have walked upon the three sisters. We were chosen for this work not because we are greater than others. Unlike your instrument, we have lived many lives. But even before your world, think thee of the time when your planet, Mars, came very close to your earth, and of the time when what you know as meteorites and asteroids passed inward into thy earth, for we were there.

And think thee of the time when our Lord created your earth and your universes, for we have said unto thee before that thy earth comes from one source.

We have told thee of the time of the cosmos and of the beginning.

Therefore, think thee about your sun, for there is not an ending, but of a beginning. And think thee of the twelve sisters of your earth, and of the Thirteen, for there lies the timetable yet to unfold unto mankind, for it has unfolded before. For your Earth returns back to the beginning and then, therefore, is created a new earth.

But your mankind, as you would know it, has lived on many planets, in many universes. For our Father has made His vow unto man that man shall not perish. He may walk away from his knowledge, for he is granted free choice. Then think thee of these words, for is it not written that from the firmament did grow all things, and from the heaven and the earth did not God breathe life into the same. (June 30, 1971)

What was dark shall be lighted. What was buried shall be uncovered. For, as we have said before, now is the time of the Cherub. For we are here to prepare a way, for we seek a place that the Messiah may enter. The time that he shall be known to you grows close; therefore, our time grows smaller. If thy would look at the last words that Christ, Jesus, said before he left his physical body, then to return to it, you will understand of what we speak of. (July 1, 1971)

See Jesus’ farewell discourses, John 13–17.

Jesus said, in John 14:1–4: “Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe also in me. My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. You know the way to the place where I am going.”

John 14: 15–21: “If you love me, keep my commands. And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another advocate to help you and be with you forever — the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be in you. I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you. Before long, the world will not see me anymore, but you will see me. Because I live, you also will live. On that day you will realize that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you.

“Whoever has my commands and keeps them is the one who loves me. The one who loves me will be loved by my Father,and I too will love them and show myself to them….”

John 14:25–27: “All this I have spoken while still with you. But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you. Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.”

John 15:26–27: “When the Advocate comes, whom I will send to you from the Father — the Spirit of truth who goes out from the Father — he will testify about me. And you also must testify, for you have been with me from the beginning.”

The spiritual messengers of God whom he asked the Father to send to prepare a way for his coming continue to speak: And as God gave man the earth to ferment and plant his seed upon, and therefore, to replenish the earth, so He did in this time.

For all things that have been before shall be again. For remember, we are not great. We are here for one purpose, that purpose is to prepare a way that God’s children may return back to their many mansions. And for this to be done, we must prepare a way for the coming of the Messiah.

There are many things thy do not understand. Be not afraid to ask, and this knowledge shall be given unto thee. (July 17, 1971)

Then we would say unto thee, bring unto us one soul, that the work of our Father may be implanted, that those souls who dwell in these isles [of California after the “big one”] may be given these words, and therefore, be prepared for the coming of the Messiah, but therefore, to be prepared for that day unto which the Seventh Angel shall drop his mighty sword upon your earth. If this is done, then our Lord shall spare many, for they must wash their clothes in the Lamb’s blood, for they must make their body and souls cleansed and purified in the light of the Lord. [See The Revelation, chapters 8–11, 14–22.]

Can you understand of which we speak? (July 23, 1971)

But our Lord has promised unto thee a thousand years of peace. This time shall come upon thy earth, and the Messiah shall come again.

This Messiah shall not come until man is ready to receive him in the manner our Lord should prepare for him. (July 23, 1971)

“Yes, Aka, the question has come up that on the different nights of your coming there are different voices. Are we right in this belief?”

We should say unto thee these words. For as there is a council of Thirteen, and as we have told unto thee these words — there are many souls, many spirits, as we were sent for the one who asked — for the council of Thirteen, this is made up of many spirits, as thy would know them. But remember also, we are not great. For our coming, permission must be given from our Lord, our Father.

But we should say of these words of our coming, we are here to prepare a way for the coming of the Messiah. [See John 14:1–5, 14:15–28, 16:6–15, chapter 17, and Acts 1:6–26, 2:1–28.]

Jesus prayed, in John 17:10–28: “All I have is yours, and all you have is mine. And glory has come to me through them. I will remain in the world no longer, but they are still in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, protect them by the power of your name, the name you gave me, so that they may be one as we are one….

“I am coming to you now, but I say these things while I am still in the world, so that they may have the full measure of my joy within them….My prayer is not that you take them out of the world but that you protect them from the evil one. They are not of the world, even as I am not of it. Sanctify them by the truth; your word is truth. As you sent me into the world, I have sent them into the world. For them I sanctify myself, that they too may be truly sanctified.

“My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me. I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one — I in them and you in me — so that they may be brought to complete unity. Then the world will know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.

“Father, I want those you have given me to be with me where I am, and to see my glory, the glory you have given me because you loved me before the creation of the world.

“Righteous Father, though the world does not know you, I know you, and they know that you have sent me. I have made you known to them, and will continue to make you known in order that the love you have for me may be in them and that I myself may be in them.”

And we should say these words unto thee. Thy shall live through the dark ages again, for upon our coming also came the time of the Cherub. And the Fourth Angel is upon thy earth. For famine, for the infection thy have placed upon the earth of our God, not one stone upon thy earth shall be left unturned.

But your earth shall not end. Your earth shall go on, for our Father has promised into thee a new heaven and a new earth.

And for the children of our Father, there shall be a thousand years of peace upon your earth. But remember also, this is as our Father should count. For the wise to hear and the wise to learn. (August 15, 1971)

And we should say these words into thee. For we are not great. We are but the messengers of God, our Father. We are here for but one purpose, to prepare for the coming of the Messiah. (August 29, 1971)

For as we have said before, we are not great; we are here but for one reason, to prepare the way for the coming of the Messiah. [See John 21:20–24.] (October 15, 1971)

For, as we have said before — and we say now unto this unto all of the disciples of this work — if thy should walk upon the water with us, have faith, for we have faith in thee. Have faith in God, for He loves His children so. And yet, He weeps. And He says unto His children, “MUST I WEEP FOREVER? MUST I SHOW MY WRATH WHEN IN MY HEART THERE IS BUT LOVE?”[See The Revelation, chapters 16–18.]

Remember, now is the time of the Cherub, and we are here but for one purpose, to prepare a way for the coming of the Messiah.

Let this time be a time of gladness. And let God’s children have before them the hands of welcome. For only with the use of your own free will can this happen. (October 15, 1971)

Remember, we are not great. We are here but to prepare the way for the coming of the Messiah. We may do nothing that our Father does not allow; we may tell thee nothing that our Father does not allow, for we are the servants and the messengers of our Father. (November 2, 1971)

But remember, we are not great. We may only do these things that our Father permits us to do, for we are the servants of God, our Father, and we are here for but one purpose, to prepare the way for the coming of the Messiah. Therefore, we should ask in return, make fallow his bed. (November 16, 1971)

“A____ R_____, who is here tonight, asks, ‘What is the basis of my dread of Christmas this year?’”

Yes, we see thy need. And we should answer in this manner. Thy dread of Christmas is the dread of the gifts thy should receive. But fear not, for remember, accept a gift as it is given with love. Do not enter into that proportion that is given from those with false faces. Send them love unto the same. Ask in thy prayers that we may enter, and we should enter, therefore, and give guidance and healing into the same.

But as your Christmas is a time to celebrate the birth of the one known as Jesus, and of a gift from God unto you, and as man chose to give gifts unto this one known as Jesus, he has chosen to give gifts to one another.

Quite often we lose sight of the true art of giving. For remember, you are the children of God. Therefore, the Lord should look into thy needs, and therefore, give a gift into thee in a manner that will be most marvelous for thy eyes to see.

But fear not, for we see no sin. Remember these words, what is sin to man is not sin to God.

You have made many rules, therefore, to worship our Lord, and your Father. But remember, as you celebrate the coming of the Messiah, we are here but for one purpose, that is in the preparation for the coming of the Messiah upon your earth. But remember, not only your earth shall celebrate this, for in all the galaxies that thy can think of, they shall celebrate this also.

For as the Lord should change a stone, so should this happen on your earth — for in the preparation we are here to open the doors of your souls. We are here to build the temple of God in man. (November 26, 1971)

For beware, for as you land was given unto God and given unto man as a new beginning, and as you brought your past with you forward into time, then we shall tell thee in these words, and at the present time they may seem as riddles unto thee.For as we have spoke before of the coming of the Messiah, so should he be born of the descendants of the Pharaoh and of the queen — and so should he be given up unto your earth and to your people, and therefore, born with much wisdom.

And as thy have asked before of his beginning, for all these things shall come in fulfillment between your years of 1800 and 1999. But your earth shall change, for as we have said before, not one pebble upon your earth shall be left unturned. (November 30, 1971)

If thy know not where thy have been, thy should not know from where thy are going. As was done unto the one known as Moses, for as these people knew that they had been in Egypt, and therefore, the Lord did say unto them, “WE SHALL DELIVER THEE UNTO THE PROMISED LAND OF THE SAME,” and as Moses did not enter, but therefore, was taken up into God to be held in His gentle arms — and as was said unto the one known as John the Baptist, “For was he not of Isaiah and Moses and of all mankind before him?” — was he not sent, therefore, to prepare a way for the coming of the Messiah? Yet, do you denounce and deny these words? And we say unto thee in this manner. We are here but for one purpose, for the coming of the Messiah, for we reach outward for the need of your souls, to prepare a way upon your earth for this time. [See Exodus 3:1–18, 12:14, 13:21–22, 14:15–20, 20:1–21, 33:5–23, 34:1–35, 36:8–9, 37:1–24, 40:34–38, Deuteronomy 31:9, 24–27, 34:1–5, and John 1:1–34.]

And as we have said before, he has been born upon your earth. And as the Lord has sent him into the desert to be guarded, the time grows nearer. Must our Lord take him back to protect him? Or will thee stretch out thy arms and prepare a way within thyself? [See The Revelation, chapter 12.]…

Now is the time of the Cherub. (November 30, 1971)

We have said before, do not misinterpret our words, and we have told thee that we have come but for one purpose, that purpose is to prepare a way for the coming of the Messiah. We have said before to close your doors to no one, for all shall receive something, and if they are capable of shedding but one teardrop, this is enough. (December 10, 1971)

Yes, we see thy need. Therefore, we should say to thee these words. For as thy reach the time of year that thy should celebrate the birth, [as] the one known as Jesus Christ, we should say unto thee these words. For as a gift was given once before, so it should be again. But we should tell thee of the words and of the birth. For as we have said before, for God gave of His first-begotten son. And as He did give of Adam, so He begot of the same into this one known as Jesus. And yet, he did say unto man, “For [a] man to know of heaven, so he should know of earth.” [See John, chapter 3.]

Then we say unto thee, hark, and get these words. For the wise to listen, let them listen. For the wise to see, let the see. [See Isaiah 42:6–9, 18–21, 43:5–10.]

For as we have said before, we have come not to prove to you that we are great. We are but the servants of God. And as it was so in another time, we did come upon the earth and prepare a way for the coming of the Messiah, and this we do again unto mankind. But as your time is a different time, so it should be done in a different way. But the glory of God upon your earth shall be the same.

For He says to His children, “HARK, AND PREPARE A WAY THAT I MAY REST MY HEAD UPON YOUR EARTH.” [See Luke 3:3–6, Isaiah 40:3–11, 11:1–10.]

Then we say unto thee, as the time grows near when you should celebrate the birth of a before time, prepare that way within thy hearts and souls. Prepare the way, that as before when he walked by the sea of Galliah [Galilee], and therefore, called unto his brothers, and they did come and walk with him — and as he did say unto them, “Come and I should teach thee to catch men,” and so it was. [See Mark 1:14–20.]

But he brought unto this Earth love for all, for he could not see the difference in man’s skin, for he looked only into their souls.

And as he came in five places upon your earth, it shall not be again. But he should come unto all races as one. And as he should love of all, so should man love of all.

And as once before, your planetary system was posed to give forth the light of a birth of a savior unto your earth, so it shall be again.

But we say unto thee, thy can destroy nothing. Therefore, build upon what exists of the same. It is not necessary that a man should call himself a Christian. It is not necessary that he call himself Mohammed, Ishmael. Nay, these are not important. It is what is in his heart, his true love for his God. These are the things that shall be counted.

And therefore, we say unto thee, as thy celebrate the birth, stand below the cross and count the drops of blood unto the same, and thy shall know the true meaning of this word you call love.

But be not sad. Rejoice unto the same, for thy Lord has not forgotten thee — for this day shall come again. Then let your teardrops flow with joy unto the Lord. (December 17, 1971)

Thy have many questions, ask.

“Yes, Aka. You spoke of the Star of Bethlehem, I believe. When the Messiah comes, will it be at the time that this star comes again, about 1998?”

Yes, we see thy need. And if all is in preparation for the same, and if we have accomplished our mission upon your earth, then all shall be in readiness. If we do not accomplish, then there shall be 300 years of darkness and bloodshed upon your earth. For remember, the last shall be first. (December 17, 1971)

For as in the beginning, we did say unto thee these words, the material things that shall be needed for this work shall come unto thee as they are needed. But ask of thy needs, not of thy wants. For within thy group, as things are needed, pray upon them, and we shall see that they are provided.

We have given unto those who should believe and have faith the help that is needed, both of the material things and the spiritual things. But as we have said before, we ask but one thing in return. We are here to prepare the way for the coming of the Messiah. Let this flow forward, and let the spirits of Aka enter into thy minds, that we may guide thee; for all thy must do for our presence to be with thee is but ask. (January 1, 1972)

But we say unto thee, do not confuse this one thy call of Jesus with God, for he is the son of God, but he is not God. And as a good son should, he does give servitude unto his Father, and glory unto the same.

It is wise unto thee to ask, “For is this one, Jesus, as thy would know him, should serve as a priest of the high priest of [Manacok] [Melchizadek] for all time?”

But we should say unto thee, we are here to prepare a way. We are here to prepare the way for the coming of the Messiah, and the Messiah shall be as a servant unto his Father. Then live each day of thy lives and await his coming. (January 7, 1972)

As we have said before, we have but wine to offer. But do not place it in an old vase. Place this wine in a new vase, that it may last through your years.

But we should say unto thee once again, we are not great. We are here as instruments of our Father. We are here but for one purpose, to prepare the way for the coming of the Messiah. And we should say unto thee, this should take many hands, and much love and tenderness. And we offer thee thy wine. If thy should decide to drink of the same, and therefore, become one of the many that stand before God, then we should speak unto thee at a different time. We may answer all of your questions that we are given permission to do so. (January 21, 1972)

For we are here to prepare a way for the coming of the Messiah, and this, in itself, is the preparation of both your soul, your spirit and the immortal body of the same. Do not act in haste. And beware of the dragons that stand near thee. But fear not, for the Lord, our God, walks with thee. (January 23, 1972)

And now we should say unto thee these words. The time grows near when those of thy group thy have chosen for the ministry shall walk before our prophet, and therefore, be made unto ministers of this, our Father’s work.

And they should do so in this manner. Each should walk before this one.

And this one should say unto them, “Should thee promise in our Father’s light to teach these things our Father has given unto thee to teach?

“Should thee at no time be prejudiced against any man?

“Should thee at all time, for those who come in need, minister in both healing of the body and healing of the soul and the spirit, and the immortal body of the same?”

And should they say, “yes,” then he should take of what thy should know of the candelabra, but this one should have of seven candles. And each one who is chosen should be presented with this. And, as each time he should say, “yes,” one candle should be lit. And then unto another.

These who should be chosen should be versed into the words we have spoken unto thee. They should have the honest effort unto helping mankind. And above all, they should enter all things with an open mind, closing their mind to nothing. And they shall never cease in their learning.

But you should remind them that the oath that they should take should be for [their] lifetime upon this plane and all others.

And then thy should ask into them, “Are you prepared to prepare a way for the coming of the Messiah?”

And should they say, “yes,” then have them rise. And walk with them, and break bread with them and drink wine with them.

For remember, for those who you shall choose, among you, nothing can be hidden from one another. All things must come in truth from God, for you shall walk in the light of God, and should be known as men and women of God….

Remember unto our words. Prepare you questions. Think deeply of the knowledge that thy should use, for the questions thy should ask and the answers thy should receive shall be passed on unto mankind. Make them wise.

[And] we should say unto the youth of your group, fear not that thy should prepare a way for the coming of the Messiah. Thy have many questions; ask of these. For did our Father not say unto thee, “BLESSED ARE ALL MY CHILDREN.”

Now is the time of the Cherub. (January 28, 1972)

Thy have other questions, ask.

“Yes, Aka. Is the Messiah to come the reincarnation of Jesus?”

When the proper time comes, our Lord should make this, His plan, known unto us, and we should tell of thee this. But remember this, we can tell of thee nothing that our Lord, our God, our Father does not give unto us permission to do of the same. For our knowledge comes from Him who should know of all things. (February 4, 1972)

In our kind, we have come to prepare a way for the coming of the Messiah….

As we have said before, no man can harm your soul or your spirit. Our Lord has given unto thee free choice. Only you yourselves may do this. And in this manner, you shall prepare a way for the coming of the Messiah. (February 11, 1972)

And we shall tell thee again of the seven spirits of your Father, and of the coming of the Messiah unto the same, for as we have said before, we were sent by those who should ask our Father to prepare a way for their coming.

And as man did come into five places upon your earth in the beginning, so it should be unto the five spirits that should enter at the time of the coming of the Messiah into the same, for he shall not be of one spirit, but he should stand as the five of before. And as the seven spirits of our Lord shall descend into the same, and so it shall be again, the twelve shall walk upon your earth. And then, our Lord, God, should enter into this one and it should be of Thirteen. [See Acts 1:6–20, 2:2–28, The Revelation of John 1:4–9, 12–20, 4:1–6, and 12:1–2,10 and chapters 19–22.]

As we have said before, the chain has been broken many times by your people through your foolish acts unto the same. But none should harm this one who should enter, for our Lord, God, shall be present in this one.

And then should come your thousand years of peace upon the earth, and each day shall be as a thousand of your years, for they shall not be as you count, but as our Father counts. [See The Revelation of John 19:11–16, 20:1–6, 21:1–7 and 22:3–7.]

And as we have said before, the Hebrew people should bow before this one, for they should know that this is their Messiah in truth. [See Isaiah, chapters 11 and 52, Zechariah, chapters 12–14, and The Revelation of John 14:1–15 and 15:1–4.]

For as we have said before, Lord of Isaiah, Lord of Moses, Lord of Jesus, Lord of Buddha, Lord of Mohammed, Lord of Ishmael, so it should be again.

And we say, hark into thee, for as the first coveth [covenant] was given unto the Jewish people, and they, in themselves, were the servants of God, and as the second coveth was given unto the one known as Jesus Christ, so it has been in many lands, in many tongues, for as the spirit has flown and walked upon your earth. But remember unto these words. The coveth that was given unto the one known as Jesus was given not for the Jewish people, for they themselves had found their God; this was given that it may be given unto the world of the same. And as the coveth was given into Buddha, this was given that that proportion of your world should know of him. And as it was given unto Mohammed, it was given that they should know of the Jewish God, of the Jesus God, and of your God.

And now, we say unto thee again, we have come to prepare a way, and therefore, give unto thee a new coveth, and this coveth shall go unto the world. But remember these words — thy can destroy nothing; thy must build upon what is already there. And as we have said before, and the bird of the Great Pyramid shall, therefore, take wings again. [See Exodus 13:17–22, 14:18–24, 16:9–12.] (February 25, 1972)

We have worked long and hard to prepare a way for the coming of the Messiah. And so shall you all. Thy have asked in your minds, “What are these who speak to us?” And we shall answer in this manner — for the spirits who should enter and become one, and therefore, become your Messiah and ours, have asked unto our Lord to send those who stood beside them before to prepare a way. And we chose this one thy call thy prophet to work through, as once before in the one thy know as John the Baptist.

Give praise unto thy Lord, thy God, and our Lord, your Father, your God shall give praise unto His children, and they shall become mighty both in heaven and earth. But remember, no man shall know of heaven that does not know of earth, and no man shall know of earth that does not know of heaven. But we say hark unto thee, why should you believe the words we speak of your earthly things and not believe these things we speak unto thee of heaven, as thy would call it?

And they say, you say unto us, are they angels? Are they archangels? And we should say unto thee, these are words of yours. But we should answer in this manner, we stand in pure light before our Father and yours. We have found it necessary to speak in your tongue, of your language. But go forward; bear this yoke of love, and our Father shall reward into each of thee in thy own way. (March 3, 1972)

“Thank you, Aka. [_____] has asked if the infant Messiah of which you have spoken, ‘Is it born already, as we understand it, and in what country?’”

[Listen to these recorded words here.]

And we should answer in this manner. These things are known only unto our Father. And for, at the present time, for his protection, the exact location shall be kept a secret into the same.

But answer in this manner.

Our Lord says, “HARK,” into thee, “FOR AGAIN UPON YOUR EARTH, IN THE DESERT DWELLS, AND THEREFORE, BY THE SEA, WHERE THE STARS AT NIGHT ARE SEEN ALL IN THIRTEEN AND MORE THAN THREE.”

For the wise to hear let them hear. And for the wise to see let them see.

And when the time comes, and the ocean roars and the mountain bellows their mighty force, our Father shall write upon the sky the entry of the same. (March 17, 1972)

We shall answer first in this manner. We have come but for one purpose, that, in itself, is a preparing of a way for the coming of the Messiah. If thy should take unto thyself this purpose, carry the torch before thee and light the way for others. We shall enter and give thee guidance. (April 1, 1972)

And now we say unto thee these words. For those who should see us, for those who should see us materialize in human form, we should answer your question in this manner. For those who have seen us have seen our Father, for we stand before Him as servants. We are here to prepare the way for the coming of the Messiah. Glory be His name.

Go out among your people. Give them your message, and we shall go with thee. (April 1, 1972)

For thy have asked these words of communion into the same. And we should answer you in this manner. We are here to prepare the way for the coming of the Messiah. We do not ask from any of you other than the love of your God — and as we have said before, our Father has many mansions; therefore, you can destroy nothing, but you may build on what is already there.

We have told into thee to take [up, of] the bread and the wine, for the bread shall be your soul and spirit, and the wine shall be that of our Father’s — for as the body, the soul, and the spirit should come in completion of the immortal body of the same.

And they asked of the wine. Place of this before each. If they chose to, let them partake of the same.

But our Father does not ask for the blood of the Lamb. And the Lamb does not ask for the blood of man. For these things that belong to the earth also belong to our Father, for they were His in the beginning. And should the grape choose to become the wine for your offering, then the grape has seen fit to use of its free choice.

And should the wheat of thy bread choose to come forth of its free choice unto your offering — and should our Father’s children see to come forth of their free choice, and therefore, give up into our Father the offering of the same, this is their choice.

But remember, this can be done anywhere, for this is between them and their God. (April 14, 1972)

“Yes Aka. [_____] of 1465 [Amperhand] Ave., Apt __, Yonkers, New York, has had a dream in which she saw two birds flying in the sky, and they came down and sat on a fence and sang beautiful songs and then flew away leaving some feathers. She would like to know the meaning of it.”

Note: The spiritual messengers of God looked into the dream, saw what would be, and spoke sadly: Yes, we see thy need, and we should answer in this way. Though where thy dwell shall be destroyed, it shall come again. And all shall come in peace before this one thy should know as the Christ, for, as we have said before, we come but for one purpose and that is in the preparation for the coming of the Messiah. Can thy understand of which we speak? (April 17, 1972)

And thy ask unto thyselves, “Why do they talk in riddles?” [Yet] we have given unto thee many words. We have given unto thee many lessons to pass forth upon the people of the land. We do not come to you alone. We have chosen you first to prepare a way for the coming of the Messiah. But first you must prepare the way within yourselves. (April 21, 1972)

Yet we come but for one purpose — that in itself is the preparation for the coming of the Messiah. And we come with love. But we also come from the one we were sent. (See John, chapters 14–17.)

And our Father should shed many tears for His children. (April 28, 1972)

But as we have said before, we have come, not to make mankind great in the eyes of other men. We have come once again that those drops of blood should not be spilt in vain. We have come to prepare the way for the coming of the Messiah. Therefore, reach unto thy forehead, for it shall be there. Prepare that way within thyself as before. For now we have returned first one [the prophet] unto thy keeping, and soon another [the Messiah]. But this time there shall be no dungeon. This time there shall be no crucifixion.

If what we have done and the time that we should have left to prepare this is used well by all, mankind shall rise above himself, and when the coming, that that shall be written in the sky, is felt in full, then all of mankind shall feel truth and humbleness. And upon your earth shall dwell a thousand years of peace, but not as you count, but as our Father counts.

But remember, those thousand years shall be different unto each one. Your years of peace could start at this moment. Find that peace within yourself, that love that was given within this drop of blood, and return it into your fellow man in the manner that it was given.

We know thy do not understand fully these things we have given unto your keeping, but thy shall. For as before, thy reached and sought for the meaning of true love, and our Father spoke unto thee, so He shall once again. Thy life has not been in vain, for once again those thy dwelt with thy dwell again. And so it shall be again. (June 16, 1972)

For what was unclean shall be made clean again, for now is the time that the preparations shall be made for the coming of the Messiah.

For those who should walk in the light of God, no harm shall come unto those. (June 23, 1972)

But for the children of God, thy have nothing to fear, for we shall walk before thee and prepare a way. We have come unto thee but for one purpose and that is for the preparation for the coming of the Messiah. We have given unto thee the keeping of the date and time. And of your year, 1998, so it shall be upon your Earth. But first shall come the sign and the writing in the sky.

And we say unto thee in these words, for all shall bow and pay homage into this One.

Yet, all shall be glad within their hearts, for your suffering upon the Earth shall end, and as has been promised, a new heaven and a new earth shall begin. But we saw unto thee in these words, as we have come to prepare this way, do so within thy own hearts and souls, that thy may serve the Messiah in the manner unto which your Lord, God, should wish of this, the same. (June 30, 1972)

Now, we should say unto thee, we have come before thee but for one purpose, and that purpose is for the preparation for the coming of the Messiah. (July 7, 1972)

And we shall say unto thee into these words, as we have said before. Thy Father asks but two things of thee, love unto Him one-tenth the love given unto thy fellow man, love unto your Father in the same manner.

And we should say unto thee these words. Coveth not that that should belong to another.

For we should answer your questions in this manner. For the Lord of Isaiah, for the Lord of Abraham, for the Lord of Ishmael, for the Lord of Moses, and for the Lord of the one known as Jesus Christ, and so it shall be for the Lord of the one known as Buddha, for they did not worship false idols, nor did they lay any idol or prophecy before themselves. For the Lord came in truth unto man and gave unto him the Spirit, and the Lord should stand before thee in the same manner.

But man can harm thee, yes, this is true, but he cannot take from thee thy soul or thy spirit. Even your Lord, God, should not do unto this of thee. But He should allow thee to do it unto thyselves. If this in that manner has been done, then woe unto thee who had walked in a false light and given unto his fellow man lies, and not truths.

But now we should say unto thee these words, we have come but for one purpose, and that is the preparation for the coming of the Messiah.

Your earth, as we have said before, shall start to change. Your changes shall come from Alaska, through the Mediterranean, through the Mexican and South Americans, and all land within the same shall mold and come forth. The land that should be of the Brittany shall change. And the land that thy should know of the valley below the sea, it shall change, for it has changed in man’s eyes already. [Note: the Yuma, Arizona, or Imperial Valley, California, area.]

Arial view of the Salton Sea in the Imperial Valley, Southern California. The southern end of the San Andreas fault runs under the Salton Sea. This fault is where the North American and Pacific continental plates meet.

Of this we say unto thee, your thousand years can begin at any time, but not as you should count, but as our Father should count.

And for some there shall be many, and for some there shall be never. But the half times are over, for those who should pass beyond this time, they shall be. For those who should lose of their souls shall be no more, for they shall wander in nothingness. (August 11, 1972)

“Thank you, Aka. [8–26–72–003], age nine, of Yuma…asks, ‘I want to know what direction God wants me to take to build for the future.’”

We should answer in this manner. For we have come but for one purpose, to prepare a way for the coming of the Messiah. This can only be done with an army of minds. This can only be done within each soul. We have come to take from the brook into the rivers, from the rivers into the many lands, and unto the universes and universes, as the heavens themselves. [But as] each soul comes forward once again to take from that their karma — no one else can do this for them only they themselves — but if you should stop along the way to show the path unto others, then blessed be those who should give of the Light. Go unto meditation, open thy mind, and therefore, the door shall be opened that we should enter, and we should give unto thee the knowledge that is needed. (August 26, 1972)

And we say unto thee these words. We have come but for one purpose, for the preparation of the coming of the Messiah, for no other reason. And we say unto you, many souls have chosen to come again upon this earth for the same purpose. But even through their choice they must still choose to prepare the way within themselves, first.

Do this. Become as one, but yet, become as five. And walk before thy God and know what thy God said unto thee, “COME UPON THE EARTH, AND YET, BE FRUITFUL. GIVE UNTO THE HOUSE OF THE LORD THE CHILDREN THAT SHALL BE NEEDED FOR THIS TIME.” (September 1, 1972)

For as the Messiah should come upon your earth, so should Lucifer stand near to gather from the mother’s womb that which was placed upon the earth. Yet, this shall not be allowed. [The Revelation 12:1–17].

For as we have said before, it shall be where the stars shall shine of brightness, where the sea shall be close at hand, and yet, the desert in itself shall coveth this one. Therefore, if the way is prepared within thee and within others, this of the child shall not be taken back unto God and guarded, but shall be given unto mankind. (September 1, 1972)

We are here but for one purpose, and that purpose is to prepare the way for the coming of a Messiah, and therefore, should build an army of minds, but first, the way must be prepared within yourself. Pick your time each day for meditation — quite simply that pray unto God that the words of Aka may enter; therefore, by opening the door, we shall enter and make ourselves known unto you.

If thy should take of the wine, we should provide of the bread and the yeast, and therefore, thy cup should runneth over. We should await thy answer unto the same. (September 8, 1972)

And we should say unto thee, blessed be that that is brought unto our Lord, and blessed be that that is given from our Lord. And for those who should choose to walk in our Father’s light, have they but one teardrop to shed, then all is in accord. But give that unto your Father that thy would give unto thyself. Give it in the same measure. For those who should walk alone, and be lonely, they shall never be alone, for our Father shall walk with them. All they must do is open the door and we shall pass through unto the same….

But we should say unto thee these words….there shall come upon your earth many changes of your seasons. And we shall provide for each of these. But as a tree should grow we have pruned this. Bear no one ill will, for only that that was done, was done at the will of our Father, which was written in the great Book should come in fulfillment. As we have said before, we are not great, we are but the messengers of our Father.

Can you understand of which we speak? Nay, not fully.

Then we should say in this manner, for all upon heaven and earth has been made in readiness. Have faith, for we are here but for one purpose, and that is to prepare a way for the coming of a Messiah. Have faith in your Father and He shall have faith in you. Give unto your Father glory and He should give it unto you. Give unto your Father love and He shall give it unto you. And the love of our Father shall be shown before all mankind, and proof shall be given of the same.

But give unto mankind glad tidings. For though your earth’s surface shall change, and though the Sword that should cut two ways shall be present, even in all of these things shall be the joy of His arrival upon your earth. For has not our Father promised unto thee a new heaven and a new earth? And so it shall be. But prepare within thyselves the valley of our Lord. (September 15, 1972)

But we come not to promise thee the worldly needs, we come not to make thee great in the eyes of man, we come but for one purpose, that purpose is in the preparation for the coming of the Messiah.

And we say these words unto you, if thy should believe the earthly things, then thy should believe those things of our Father. But if thy cannot believe of which we speak, there are many mansions and our Father shall provide one for you. Our Father has planted into your hands that of free choice. Neither ourselves or our Father shall take this from you. We have entered into thy house many times, for thy bid us welcome. We have placed unto thy hand our wine.

But we also placed unto all those who do the work of God a time of temptation, a time of doubt. We did this in this manner that the house of God could be cleansed. For those who should walk in the light of our Lord and the work that is needed in the preparation for his coming shall have the strength to carry the mighty Sword, for now is you time of Armageddon. [See The Revelation, chapter 19.]

For many doors unto your mankind shall be opened. Your radio and television media shall be placed before you. The hearts and minds of thousands and millions shall be placed into your hands.

But all those, one by one, and two by two, and three by three were to be tested. And those who could not stand should be cast aside. And those who shall not stand shall be cast aside. For is it not written that if thy right eye should offend thee cast it aside? For thy Lord, God, is a jealous God, and He shall have no other gods before Him, or after Him.

And for the one who should come shall not come as a god, but as a servant of God. Yet, he shall carry the spirits of God within him, and he shall carry within him that of the Christ-state of many. For he shall come as the first-born son of our Father.

For is it not written that our Father loved this world of yours and mankind that He should hand into your hands once before His first-begotten son who He loved very dearly. And is it not written that the descendants of Abraham should be changed as stones. For you shall serve one of your own kind. Yet, as the spirit of God should dwell within you, so it should dwell within this one. But the power of God should also dwell within this one, and the wisdom and the love our Father has for His many children.

For if it was not so, our Father would have told you. For our Father has hidden nothing from His children. For what has been laid in darkness shall be placed into the light. What was covered shall be uncovered. For a new heaven and a new earth shall come and all things our Father has promised shall be as it was written. [See The Revelation, chapters 21–22.]

For did not our Father promise that two prophets should come to the earth and they should be slain and risen again. And so it shall be. And so it is, for have you not seen it with your own eyes? [See The Revelation, chapter 11.]

Yet, thy say, of the many, unto us, “Perform, therefore, a miracle, and we should believe.”

And we say unto you, we have come not to perform miracles, as thy would know them, for we can do nothing without the permission of our Father, for it is not us who should give healing, but our Father. It is not us who should show you light in the darkness, but our Father, for we are but the servants of our Father, and we walk in His holy light.

But those who should walk in our Father’s light and give praise unto Him, of the Creator, the Father, the God, then light shall be shown forever and ever.

But we should also unto you these words, for those who should not believe, watch your earth tremble. Watch those who should not believe fall into the earth and be devoured by it, and yet live in fear. Watch those who have become so concerned with their selves that they have no room for God create their own hell and walk in nothingness.

Yet, you say unto us, then now is the time of sorrow. And we say. nay, you are but foolish children, for now is the time of joy, and the joy should be in your hearts for the day of the preparation. For upon your earth shall be a thousand years of peace, but not as you count, but as our Father should count, and each day should be as a thousand years.

And your earth shall change its form. Where no water flow, water shall flow; what was desert shall be made into gardens.

Your times of trial are but a short time. This time of the Anti-Christ, that is short upon your earth to come, is but a short time. Yet, for those who should not show the mark of the Beast, all things unto our Father shall be given. [See The Revelation, chapters 12–13, 14:8–12, and chapters 15, 17, and 19–22.]

And we say unto thee, give glory unto our Father, and our Father shall give glory unto you, and glory be the name of the Lord, our Father, forever and ever. Let that of the light that was placed there in the beginning to see, open this, and let it see, and thy shall see us, and thy shall see thy Father. But deny thyselves, and thy shall see darkness. (October 13,1972)

The light of seven spirits of God shines within the Prophet’s candelabra

“Yes, Aka.[_____] also asks, ‘On the seven candlesticks mentioned in Revelations, are they us and a reference to our bodies?’” [See The Revelation of John, chapters 4–5.]

Yes, we see thy need. And these shall be, as we have said before, the Seven Spirits of God. But you must realize that that was before has happened already in the rise and fall of the Roman Empire. As a Messiah did come of before, and a Messiah shall come once again, this should make your Revelations twofold. (October 27, 1972)

Yes, we see thy need, and therefore, should say unto thee in these words, for as we have told you of the beginning, and as we have told you of the twin sisters of your earth, and therefore, we shall bring those forward into one house, that all may prepare for the coming of the Messiah. For look deep within yourselves; bring forth that that belongs to your Father. Place it upon the altar….

And we say unto you, soul [J___ R___], we have placed flowers before you. But now is not the time for flowers, for now we have come to collect your indebtedness. And our Father shall collect it in full in this manner. New words shall be written upon the sky, but they must be written in men’s hearts first. (December 1, 1972)

As you should make ready upon this land for the celebration of the one known as Jesus’ birth, let each of you place forth upon this night of nights unleavened bread, that that has no yeast. Let each of you take of the wine. Kneel before your God and give thanks that once again your Messiah shall come into you and your world shall give joy everlasting. Open your hearts. Let the spirit of this one enter, for he left it upon your earth to flow as a river — but not rushing — gently, slowly, ever more beautiful. (December 9, 1972)

Now is the time of the Cherub. For all who are wise to hear, let them hear. For once again, the star of Bethlehem shall burn in your heavens. Give joy and reverence unto all mankind, for the birth of the new Messiah is at hand.(December 15, 1972)

Upon this day you should celebrate the coming of the Messiah. Do not plant it in one day, but set your seed upon the earth in many places every day, in every way, and your Father, God, shall see the toil, the loving toil within your hearts.

Can you understand of which we speak?

Nay, not fully. But study our words well, for we have not spoke in riddles, as it may seem, but in fullness, with the wisdom our Father should give on us to speak.

Give blessings unto all. And watch the heavens every day, and soon the light that shone before upon the valley of Bethlehem shall shine again, and your new Messiah shall be born unto men. (December 22, 1972)

[Note: Did this message come true? Did we see this? The world saw the “star of Bethlehem” when Jupiter and Saturn were in conjunction December 21, 2020, which had not been seen for 900 years, and then before that, since the time of the birth of Christ. Here’s more.]

Christ statue at sunrise in Rio de Janero

First, of your question, soul Peter, your question is that of the coming of the Messiah.

And we should answer first in this manner. Within your mind is the name of the one known as Jesus, and that of the preparation for the entry of those who have reached the Christ state into this one. As we have said before, there are many who have reached the Christ state. And through the combination of these shall be the new Messiah.

You asked that he should come walking from the clouds? And we shall answer your question in this manner. When he should first appear unto the Jewish people, and they shall see him first, he shall be standing upon a cloud. And the Jewish nation in their despair shall kneel before him. This was meant so that that that had been written should be fulfilled. And as we have said before, written upon the clouds, written upon the sky, our Father shall make known of this entry in this way. [See Acts 1:6–11, The Revelation of John, 7:2–12, chapter 10, 14:1–5, 14:14–16, 15:2–4, 19:1–16, 21:1–7, 22–27, 22:1–7, Zechariah, chapters 12–14.]

But he should come unto the body form, for is it not written also that that that does not know of earth can not know of heaven? And those who do not know of heaven can not know of earth? For he should come to lead you through your thousand years of peace upon your earth. [See John 3:1–21 and The Revelation, chapters 19–22.]

The spirit was left that it may flow through all mankind. As we have said before, we have come but for one purpose, and that is for the preparation for the coming of the Messiah. And we say unto you, all of you, open your door that we might enter, and therefore, there can be a place prepared within each of you for his coming. [See John 14:1–5, 14:15–26, 15:26–27, 16:7–15, 16:19–24, and chapter 17.]

But from a mother’s womb, so shall he be born. Look within your book of Revelation, and you shall see of the same. [See The Revelation of John, chapter 12.]

But hark unto these words. Our Father has written only upon the Tablets. Man has written upon your pages and your paper; therefore, many things have been extracted from, taken away from that that inspired the men in the beginning to write of the same, and some has been added to by others. We have come, not to change the Laws, but to fulfill the prophecies of the same. We have come not to change that that was given within Moses’ time. We have come not to change that that was given unto Isaiah. We have come not to change that that was given, and the gift that was given, in the one known as Jesus. But hark unto these words. We have come for this time.

We have come from those who should make their entry. We have come from those who did say unto our Father, “Send those who know You best to prepare a way for our coming, that our Father’s words should not be misinterpreted.” [See John 14:15–26, 15:26–27, 16:7–15, and 16:19–24.](December 29, 1972)

[You can listen to these words here.]

We came not to place fear in front of you, but glad tidings, for we have come but for one purpose, for the preparation of the coming of the Messiah. He is born upon the Earth. Now, we shall prepare a way for him. For those who should give but one teardrop, and this is all they can give, this is enough. But for those who have many, then this is enough.

But that that the Lord has given unto your hands, the Lord can taketh away. We have said unto you before, this work, these words shall come forth as a new coveth [covenant]. There are those of you who have handled them in not a respectful way.

Three months from this day we shall place within Ray’s mind that unto which he should do, and he shall do of such.

We have healed your sick; we have strengthened your bodies. We asked nothing then, we shall ask nothing now, for we want only those who should walk of their own free will. For we placed this work unto the river, and we placed the opportunity for it to flow beyond, yet this was not acted upon. The opportunity to take this work forward has lied dormant. (January 4, 1974)

We say unto you that God loved to see His children laugh and be merry. But there is a time for laughter; there is a time that man should provide with the hands of God the bounty and the bread, and provide also for his family. There is a time for the worshiping of God, each in his own way. But the knowledge placed forth in these pages were placed there that the preparation for the coming of the Messiah and that the time of maturity could be made soon.

But yet we shall say unto you, if the work that we have been sent forth upon your planet, your Earth, does not come into completion, then he who should be sent forth shall be drawn back unto the heavens unto his Father, and three thousand years of darkness shall lay upon the land. And you shall once again emerge from your caves. (March 15, 1975)

We have said unto you, we come but for one purpose, the preparation for the coming of the Messiah. Some, because of the natural catastrophes that should befall the earth, should be fearful. They are wrong. The fear only breeds more fear. The knowledge and understanding takes away the fear, the working of one hand into another.

We have placed into soul Ray’s mind the baptism of your organization. [For] he did seek in his dream form, a church. It was a poor church, and he said therefore, “Build into me a steeple, and I shall provide the bell. And it shall ring forth the freedom of religion throughout the land. And it shall come before your bicentennial year of your land.”

And so we say unto you, we shall provide the bell. Where more than one should gather, so we shall stand. And where only one shall stand, we shall stand. But the learning to stand together in love, in faith, and in harmony is your greatest task in the preparation for the coming of the Messiah.

If a burden is carried with love, it is no burden at all, for it becomes light, and your feet shall gather wings — for you shall become in harmony with the universe. Let it be so. Glory be the name of the Lord, our God. (October 18, 1975)

The words spoken in 1975 came true in 1982. Ray built a church that he dedicated simply to God on the first day of the Advent season when it was ready. Like a voice crying out in the wilderness, his work with the spiritual messengers of God, is to prepare a way for the coming of the Messiah. And it all is true. (See Isaiah 42:16, Luke 3–4, and Hebrews 12:13.)

We say unto you, if you cannot believe us of the things of heaven, how can you believe us of the things of earth? We say unto you, we are here but for one purpose, that is the preparation for the coming of the Messiah. (April 29, 1976)

Become a teacher, and then a minister, and then a shepherd. For we are here to prepare the way for the coming of the Messiah. It is only through the touching of one unto another may this be achieved. (April 29, 1976)

We come but for one purpose, and that is the preparation for the coming of the Messiah, and the thousand years of peace upon the earth and the universe. We come to bring forth the promise of a new heaven and a new earth. We have come not to change the prophesies of Isaiah. We have come not to change the laws brought forth in the Ten Commandments by Moses. Nor have we come to change the coveth [covenant] brought forth by the one known as Jesus Christ. But we have come forth for this time…. (July 9, 1976)

We have also told you that of the birthplace and the time of the Messiah that we have come to prepare a way for. (August 20, 1976)

The spiritual messengers of God spoke this prophecy March 17, 1972: “Our Lord says, ‘HARK,’ into thee, ‘FOR IN THE DESERT DWELLS, AND THEREFORE, BY THE SEA, WHERE THE STARS AT NIGHT ARE SEEN ALL IN 13 AND MORE THAN 3.’ For the wise to hear let them hear. And for the wise to see let them see. And when the time comes and the mountains bellow their mighty force Our Father shall write upon the sky the entry of the same.”

As we have said before, we are here to prepare the way for the coming of the Messiah, for that purpose, and that purpose only. We are here to assist and help the children of our Father without violating the free will of the same.

But we say unto you, who should come from far and wide, and various thoughts and various beliefs in philosophy, what is within your religion that has remained in all, and that is the good of [the] philosophy, that that may stand through the years and remain of the same. It may be spoken in a different manner, but all is the same.

We have said before that Moses came and did bring forth the laws of Moses for Moses’ time. The one known as Jesus Christ did come and he did bring forth the laws of Moses, the laws of his time, and the laws of all time. Yet we have come forth to prepare a way for the coming of the Messiah. And so, the second coming upon the Earth shall be fulfilled.

But it is not just for the Earth’s sake we have come. Nor is it just for your sakes we have come.

We say unto you, be as a mirror; take in, reflect out. Let what we have given unto you shine forth. Let it multiply, and multiply yet again. (September 10, 1976)

For we are here to prepare the way for the coming of the Messiah, that the thousand years of peace may reign upon the earth, that the new heaven and the new earth shall become unto reality.

These are not our words, but the words of the Lord, our God, Almighty.

Glory be the name of the Lord. (September 17, 1976)

We say unto you, we have brought you forth unto this day, unto this time for a purpose, the preparation for the coming of the Messiah. Yet you play games with us. We tire of such. We do not sleep. As the Lord wearies, so do we weary. Yet the Lord has placed His hands many times upon this small earth to bring communion unto it, to bring the seventh day, that it may all be kept holy. (October 1, 1976)

We have come but for one purpose, that purpose is the preparation of the coming of the Messiah — in that preparation, the importance of planting the seed of love in mankind. (November 5, 1976)

For soon you shall celebrate the birth of Jesus of Nazara. And all shall have gladness within their hearts. And they shall show good will toward men. But must it be for just one day?

The Lord said, “MAKE THE SEVENTH DAY HOLY, AND REST.” And so it is. Rest should be upon the seventh day for the body, but for the soul and the spirit, it should be of all seventh, as the Seven Spirits of God should enter into thy being.

We have also told you this to tell you that where we come from we do not sleep. We are here but for one purpose, and that is the preparation for the coming of the Messiah.

The Lord says not unto you the way unto worship Him. The Lord says, “GIVE UNTO ME ONE-TENTH OF THE LOVE I HAVE GIVEN UNTO YOU; GIVE UNTO THY FELLOW MAN ONE-TENTH OF THE LOVE I HAVE GIVEN UNTO YOU; AND GIVE UNTO THYSELF. AND IN ALL WAYS I SHALL FEEL THY LOVE FOREVER AND EVER.” (December 3, 1976)

Look unto the flowers at your feet. Take time each day to count your blessings, to see the beauty that God lays at your feet each moment of your life. You need not pick up the flowers, but examine them, and remember their fragrance. But if you should desire to pick them up, new ones shall be placed for others to see.

If you have need, ask and the need shall be fulfilled. But know the difference between your needs and your wants.

Glory be the name of the Lord.

Bind yourselves in fellowship. Bind yourselves in the preparation for the coming of the Messiah. (February 18, 1977)

As a river should flow, it should have many beginnings, but one ending. It should either flow out upon the lands in many places, or it should flow to the sea and complete its cycle, and there­fore, flow unto the many lands. It should begin as a brook in many places.

But the home of the brook lies in the sea. The vastness of the sea is like the vastness of the Lord. Prepare, therefore, unto the coming of the Messiah, and fulfillment shall come in abundance.…

And we say unto you, we shall say of this thing you call death. And for those who should pass at this time, it shall not be many years that should come forth until the coming of the Messiah. There shall [be] many who should pass at a youthful age, that they should re-enter, even in the tryingest times, that they may walk with he who we have come to prepare the way for.

Glory be the name of the Lord. And glory be the name of those who have chosen to walk with him.

And you say unto us, “How is death free choice?” It is of such. For even within it is a form of healing.

We say unto you, look at us. We speak unto you through one instrument, yet we are many. Some of us have walked upon this earth of yours many [arcans] ago. Yet some of us have walked across land and earths and planets where your seed lays, those of your kind. They have changed and adapted themselves to their own planetary substance. But we walk through all of these things. The vastness of the Lord is unlimited. We have but one God. He is the God of the living, not of the dead, so there is no death for those who should worship Him. For did He not promise unto you an everlasting life?

Many times there are those among us who have experienced what you call death.

The taste of life is sweet. The breathing of the air that we experience as we come through this instrument is wondrous — the feeling and the touch — all of these things. But for us is yet of a greater mission. For we walk as close to God as a tear from His eye, yet we walk as close to you as the beat of your heart. Glory be the name of the Lord.

Now is the time of the Cherubim. (February 25, 1977)

Their instrument, Ray Elkins, lights each candle on his candelabra as he renews his vows to God during the Annual Meeting service. To know him is to know them. Many times when guidance or healing was given it was hard to know to whom one was speaking. But the greater Life God sent within amplified the soul and spirit a thousandfold, and made all things possible.

We said in the beginning we would provide for your needs, the needs of your spiri­tual growth, and the needs for the material things that were needed, not only for the growth and maturity of your organization, but for the growth and the maturity of the individual. And for all those who are willing to work for the preparation of the coming of the Messiah, so it shall be.

But it cannot be done in silence. Let your voices be heard unto the Lord. Let your voices be heard unto one another. If your desire is to reach toward your Lord, if you should reach alone you have accomplished nothing.

If you shall reach together, your heart, your soul, your spirit, and you immortal body shall all be as one.

In that hidden place within your mind you shall find the quiet pool. There you shall find a candle that shall always be lit. And there within yourself you shall find God.

But be as a mirror. Let that part of you reflect out.

If you should go unto the forest, and there you shall find all the beautiful flowers and share them with no one, then love is nothing unless it is shared. It is an impulse felt at the time, nothing more.

There are those who should speak forth in anger to one another. And after they have spoken, they would like to remove the words that they have spoken. It is not enough to say you are sorry. Put into practice what you should preach. Be not as a hypocrite.

Man shall rise and fall. It is not the falling that shall be the sin; it is his inabi­lity to get up, to rise. And in rising he shall lend a hand for others. If one should take it upon himself to bring ten, and each of those ten should bring ten more, and each of those ten should bring ten more, and all should function with one idea — love, unity, hope, faith — then you shall find eternity. (March 25, 1977)

We say unto you, lift up your heads unto the greater plan of the Lord, the greater purpose for our presence, the greater purpose that you are here, now, in this place — and that is for the preparation of the coming of the Messiah. Nothing must interfere with this, regardless of your disagreements.

Who shall you say unto the Lord, “Place the Messiah here, or place him there?” The Lord shall place the Messiah where all can see, and all can feel, and all shall know.

You have but one purpose, as we, the preparation for the coming of the Messiah. (May 13, 1977)

We are here to prepare the way for the coming of the Messiah. We have no other purpose.

Glory be the name of the Lord. Glory be the name of the Messiah, and glory be the name of His children, forever and ever. (June 11, 1977)

But we say unto you, we are here to prepare a way for the coming of the Messiah. Place in your hearts that love that we have brought to you. But we did not bring it; our Father, who sent us, always loved you, for you are His children. (July 8, 1977)

As we came forth, we came forth in five places, and the readings as you hear them now, and our voice was heard in five places upon your earth. In four they have been cast aside. Now, we are able to reach into many mouths and bring forth that day of preparation.

Our words, give them wings.

And wherever you should sayeth and pray unto your Father, remember that that you say unto your Father’s name and say it in truth, for the betterment of mankind, we shall travel and be there to serve you — for we do not sleep. For wherever you journey, the gifts that you shall receive here shall go with you. And only the thought, and we shall be with you. But we are not great. We are but the messengers of your Father and ours, God.

In you minds you say, “Why, then, do you not speak of the one known as Jesus of Nazara, the first-begotten son?” And we say unto you, we speak of these things into which you seek knowledge as we look unto your minds. We need not speak for him, who should come later, for he shall speak for himself, and you shall hear him. Our job is not to place words in his mouth; our job is the preparation for his coming.

Glory be the name of the Lord. Glory be the name of His children. And glory be the name of the Messiah. (August 5, 1977)

Blessed be name of the Lord, our Father. And blessed be those who should come together in unity from my Father’s many mansions. For blessed be those who should prepare the way for the coming of the Messiah. (November 26, 1977)

Glory be the name of the Lord. Glory be the name of His children, forever and ever.

For at this time you shall prepare to celebrate the birth of the one known as Jesus of Nazara. And we should say unto you, let this day ring through your hearts, not for [but] one day, but for all. Let the day come when each of your faiths can stand together and love one another for your belief in God.

For those who should kill, and say they have done so in the name of God, nay. For those who should steal, and say they have done so in the name of the Lord, nay. For those who would take from the Ten Commandments given unto you by Moses from the Lord, your God, for you shall not add to nor take away, and they shall be the laws of both heaven and earth forever and ever.

We are here but for one purpose; that purpose is the preparation of the coming of the Messiah. Let those who have eyes to see, let them see. For those who have ears to hear, let them hear. But we say unto you, glory be the name of the Lord.

And glory be the peacemakers upon the earth.

There shall be those in the best of times who shall bear false witness. If this is all you can see, then you have seen not. If this is all you have heard, you have heard not. For the sun and the rain shall shine upon all, but not the smallest thing shall fall from this earth without our Father’s knowledge. Pick up the gift and give it with love. (December 2, 1977)

“Yes, Aka. ‘What is the destiny of this organization?’ he asks. ‘And will this new Messiah use the organization to accomplish his purpose?’”

The organization is only here but for one purpose, the preparation for the coming of the Messiah. And, there will be those within the organization who shall walk with him. But all shall serve with him. And a thousand years of peace shall come upon the earth, and a new heaven and a new earth shall be born again.

You have asked within your mind, “Must you believe?” And we say unto you, that decision must come within yourself. But a man without the belief and the tradition of the belief shall build rainbows in the sky. Look into the order of all things upon your earth, and then tell us there is no God. Look into the order of your universe and galaxies, and tell us there is no God. And look from where we have come. We are here but for one purpose, the preparation for the coming of the Messiah, no other. We are here to serve your needs. We have done so, and we have provided. We did not strike a bargain with you; we stated in fact that which we would do and have completed that task in full. We would say unto you, what is greed, and what is need? (December 2, 1977)

We have brought unto you this day a gift that God gave man long ago. Bring forth your laughter. Make your world a joyous world. And the preparation for the coming of the Messiah shall come tenfold before you. (February 17, 1978)

And take unto the multitudes and feed them with the love that should come from your Lord − and let it flow through you − From every teacher, from every student, from every minister, from every shepherd, and from your prophet, and from every member, let it flow out unto the multitudes, this love, this gift of love. And let it rise unto the heavens and you shall hear the angels sing unto thee. And let it rise from beneath the earth and up and through the roots of the trees and the plants and you shall hear the angels sing unto you. And let it come from the sea, and from the bottom of the sea, and from the waves, and the love shall rise up into thee − for the Earth shall be covered with love. Glory be the name of the Lord. Glory be the name of His children forever and ever….

Let not greed dwell among thee. Let not mistrust dwell among thee, for nothing shall be greater than thee, and nothing shall be greater than the Lord, thy God. Cast aside, and let forth the blossom of the dawn rise within thee.

Glory be the name of the Lord, our God. Now is the time of the Cherubim. (April 7, 1978)

For in truth, those with the faith, the hope, and the wisdom to believe shall see the coming of the Messiah, for that is our purpose. That is our only gift we can give you. But it shall be greater than all the gold and jewels and riches of your Earth, all together. For if our mission should come about, and fulfillment of the same, the thousand years of peace shall reign upon the Earth, and into the universe and galaxies, and all shall know each other in love. (April 21, 1978)

We say unto you, we have come not to change the laws of Moses; we have not to change the words spoken by the one known as Jesus of Nazara; we have come for the preparation of the return of the Messiah. In all things, we have come to show you the truth of the prophecies of the same….

Glory be the name of the Lord. Glory be the name of those who should prepare the way for the coming of the Messiah. Glory should be the name of His children forever and ever. (May 19, 1978)

And we should say unto thee, glory be the name of the Lord; glory be the name of His children, forever and ever. For the Lord has seen, and the Council has seen — and that that we have seen, and that that we have heard, the Lord is pleased. For that that His children has brought unto the earth shall now reach unto the oceans and into the heavens, unto the many universes.

For in this day thy have set forth a new step.

And the Lord shall place a new star in the heavens for thee. And there, for all to see, they shall know the presence of the Messiah. No longer shall you wait and not know of his presence.

But we say unto thee also, the Anti-Christ shall know if it; beware. But we say unto him and to his followers, beware. And for all of the children who shall not wear the mark of the Beast, a new heaven and a new earth shall be prepared, and a thousand years of peace shall reign upon it — not as you count, for each thousand years shall be as one day to the Lord.

Glory be the name of the Lord. (June 10, 1978)

For in the sky now burns brightly a new star, the sign of the coming of the Messiah. And for those who shall hold the Lord’s name in righteousness, it shall be there for them. (June 23, 1978)

Glory be the name of the Lord; glory be the name of His children.

Take from the last reading we have given you before this one. Find the true meaning we place there.

Find the joy within the Lord’s heart. Find the love in the rainbow. Find the song in the sea. Find the music in the wind. Put your ear to the earth and hear the throb. Put your eyes to the sky and know in truth the coming of the Messiah.

Now is the time of the Cherubim. (June 23, 1978)

Angels tell the Parable of the Young Lad (Listen)

Listen here.

Glory be the name of the Lord; glory be the name of His children, forever and ever.

We should say unto thee this parable, the parable of the young lad who could not decide, as he grew up, that which he wished to become. His father was a shepherd; his one uncle was a merchant; another was a fisherman; another farmed the land, and did bring forth, through all these things, an abundance back into the family. But as he looked, one into the other, he could not make up his mind. And therefore, unlike his brothers, he went from uncle to uncle, working in each place for a while and then leaving.

His father’s brothers did meet to discuss this one, for all their other children had all followed in the family line of work. And each had found their niche in life. And each asked the other, “What should be done?” It was finally decided that they should take this one before the priesthood, for he was now reaching the age of manhood, for his 13th birthday was before him.

All the brothers left their work, and all their children left their work, and all went unto their temple of worship, and said unto the priest therein, “We seek your advice for this one.”

And the priest said unto them, “This is a decision that I must take up with wiser men than I. I go, therefore, into the Holy Land, where wise men shall gather. Let me take the lad with me.”

And so, they did venture forth. As they crossed the great deserts and neared the town of Bethlehem, each night they saw this beautiful star, this beautiful light from the heavens. And the lad kept asking the priest, “What was this light? What was this beautiful light from the heavens? What made it so?”

The priest knew some of astronomy and astrology, but he could not account for this.

And they did meet in their travel the three Magi. And the Magi told of their journey to that that would be the birthplace of a new Messiah.

When they did reach Bethlehem, and all came forth unto the Christ child to bring forth their gifts, the young lad stayed back. He looked through all of his possessions, and they were few. And then he heard the angel[s] say unto him, “Take forth the gift of thyself.” And so the lad brought himself up from his knees, leaving all his worldly possessions behind, and went forth. And among all the glittering gifts that were to be given, there, in the manger, he did lay himself and say, “I shall be thy slave.”

Both Joseph and Mary looked upon the lad. What need would they have for a slave? But it was a gift given. And the priest had his answer to take back to the father, and the uncles, and all the kin therein.

But as the lad gave unto himself, the Lord, God, gave unto the lad and said unto him, “BE THAT OF A PROTECTOR FOR MY SON. BE THAT OF A TEACHER. TEACH HIM TO FISH, TO FARM, TO RAISE OF THE BEAST[S]. TEACH HIM OF ALL THE THINGS YOU HAVE LEARNED FROM ALL OF YOUR UNCLES AND YOUR FATHER. AND IN TIME HE SHALL TEACH YOU.”

At first, those around had laughed at the young lad’s gift. But they were to see that he had given the greatest gift of all, himself.

We say unto you, who are artists, we have painted a picture for you unlike any that exists, for we have reached back in time, that this may come forth into your time and shall go forward. Let it be a symbol for all those who wish to give. For you are here, as we, but for one purpose, the preparation for the coming of the Messiah.

And as you prepare for your worship, as Jesus of Nazareth, the Christ child, let new birth come into you. Let it be born in you. And each day, as you rise, let it become a new day and a new world. And as you close your eyes at night, thank the Lord that He has placed you at this time where you are, in the time of the preparation of the coming of the Messiah. Let that gift be given freely, as it was from the lad. And all in abundance shall come back unto you tenfold…..

Blessed be the children of the Lord. Blessed be unto the gift given, for they are the future. Guard unto this one well. Blessed be the name of the Lord, God. Blessed be the Spirit. Blessed be the children and the spirit, and the temple of God.

In your Christmas services, let this story, this parable we have told you tonight, be told. And let preparation be made that all your people shall know — and now — that they may stand together in prayer and unity. Bind together. Make your prayers as one unto the Lord….

Let the Christmas spirit be not only the Christmas Spirit; let it reach unto all religions of all faiths. Let brotherhood bind unto you. For that which you celebrate is the love he left upon your Earth in birth and in death. Amen, oh Lord, amen. Kay-ah, kay-ah. Yay, kay-na so mora. Ay, ay. (December 8, 1978)

And we say unto you, only through your faith shall you know of the heaven and the earth, and only through your faith can the preparation for the coming of the Messiah be fulfilled.

We have told you of the quiet place within your mind, the quiet place where God dwells within you. Take that moment and look into that quiet place, and the knowledge you seek shall be there — there by the quiet pool where the candle is always lit, and where the roses always bloom, and the water is always pure.

But if you should know of the knowledge we speak of, then no matter how much you have to face, you shall face it with a joyous heart, and love and companionship for one another. (March 2, 1979)

As the water of life flows in the valley, let those who should hear our words take knowledge and meaning. For those who have eyes to see let them see. For those who have ears to hear let them hear. For those who shall place forth the preparation of the coming of the Messiah before all other things, through them we shall place the light and the knowledge and the way. (May 18, 1979)

A few years after Aka spoke these words, water from a spring that drips from the Dripping Springs Mountains into the valley, bringing life, was blessed to become a healing spring. You can see the water flowing from the crevasse above as wet, darker rocks on the mountainside.

Heed our words. We are here but for one purpose, the preparation of the coming of the Messiah. Open the door that we may enter, and we shall walk with you. (June 9, 1979)

Have the faith in the Lord to know that He loves you, each of you. Have the faith to know that he shall send upon the earth the Messiah that we come here to prepare the way for, for that is our only purpose. We come here to take nothing from you. We come here but for one purpose, the preparation for the coming of the Messiah. (September 19, 1979)

We say unto you, prepare now, and believe now, and know now, that each step that you take is a step for the preparation for the coming of the Messiah. If you shall know this, then you shall walk with him. (September 28, 1979)

Light the candle in your hearts. For soon you shall celebrate the birth of the one known as Jesus of Nazara, that of the Messiah. And soon, you shall know of his coming once again. For as you celebrate this you call Christmas, know that he celebrates it with you. If you shall do this in your meditation, allow him now to enter, and you will have made the first step for the preparation. (November 30, 1979)

The Lord, God, has placed before you all of the things you have asked for, all of your needs — as we said when we came, that we would provide for your needs, not always your wants, but your needs. And we struck, therefore, a covenath [covenant] with you, and we have fulfilled this covenath. For all those who should come forth in the preparation of the coming of the Messiah, their needs shall and have and will be provided for.

And we said unto you, we have come not to change the Laws of Moses, or the prophecies. We have come not to change that of the words of the one known as Jesus of Nazara. We have only come to show you the further fulfillment of the whole — and that is the preparation of the coming of the Messiah. (February 8, 1980)

Listen to the Parable of the Sun (Son) here.

Yes, we see thy need. And we shall answer in this manner. Glory be the name of the Lord; glory be the name of His children, forever and ever.

And we should say unto thee unto these words, the parable of the sun.

For there were three wise men who sat to deliberate the greatness of all things of God’s creations. And each would mention a different planet, until one mentioned the sun, a huge, as you would call it, hydrogen bomb, a planet burning into infinity.

And some said, “Is this a planet being born, or is this a planet dying, this star they call the Sun?”

And the wiser of all three said, “It is not where we use the name, son. We have used the name son unto our children, the male-born, as it has been used unto the one, of the Son of God.”

And they said into one another, “But how shall we know all of these things? What is the real truth of all of our deliberation? None of us has ever visited the moon, the sun, or any of these places. How should we really know of their existence?”

And then there stood among them a forth. He was neither young nor old. He was not dressed in rich attire, but that of a plain robe. And he said unto them, “I say unto you these words. For the day shall come, when as my Father, and in His knowing, that the stars shall be the stepping stones for man. And do you not think that my Father, out of all this vastness, only performed His miracle of life upon one of these planets? And that there is only one sun, as you would know it?”

These men thought, and they asked him, “But we speak of a star, and we speak of a man, and the sun that gave life unto man, and the man that gave life unto the son, and God that gave life unto all things.”

And he said, “How shall we know these things you speak are true?”

And he said unto them, “One day man shall walk forth into your galaxy and galaxies beyond galaxies. He shall walk into this universe and beyond. And as he reaches these far-away places they shall be as his home, for all things will be in order, and a sun, wherever life shall be found, so shall be a sun — and a son that shall bear fruit unto his Father, and a son that shall bear fruit unto man and the Earth, and the planets and planets that shall bear the spirit and form of man.

You say unto us, “Once again you have spoken as unto riddles.”

And we will say, nay. For one here has in their mind a course that they should take. And man has navigated by the stars for a long time. But each of the captains for the ship has used that of a sextant, or an instrument to measure the movement of the stars, and their movement across the skies, across the oceans, across the universes.

In this person’s mind, they say unto us, “How shall I make this decision?”

And we say unto you, be as one; come unto yourself, and you shall find the answer. We cannot give you the answer, for to be handed to you in that manner you will have never found it. Deep inside you lies the truth. And yet another truth lies before you also, a truth of a time and a place where time grows short. (March 4, 1980)

We say unto you, we come to prepare a way for the coming of the Messiah. That is our total and complete reason for being as we are unto you. And we say unto you, open your hearts that we may enter. Love one another as the son has told you.

Love one another. And if you do so, when your brothren does a wrong thing, it is a fine thing to help him correct this, but it is not fine to talk upon it afterward. Once a deed is done it has created light and sound, and it shall go on as the stars as into infinity. The only thing that may undo a deed, a bad deed, is a good deed in its place, and named in its place. If you shall do this, one unto another, in a loving manner — all the knowledge you seek has been placed before you; all the wealth you seek has also been placed before you. As we said before, for those who should come forth for this great task, for the preparation for the coming of the Messiah, their needs shall be laid before them. (March 28, 1980)

Love one another as ye would love this one. Come together as brotheren and sisteren. Do not take from this as a selfish thing, as Judas did. Take from it and know that it is the kingdom of God we speak, and the world we speak of is your world, your earthly plane.

We have come not to make kings upon the Earth. We have come not to place our hands upon one or another and say, “Hold this one in a righteous manner.” We say, hold yourselves in a righteous manner. We have come not to change the Laws of Moses, or the prophecies of Isaiah, or the coveth [covenant] given unto you from Jesus; yet we have come that a new covenant may be placed upon the earth and in the heavens and universe. We have come to prepare a way for the coming of a messiah. (April 4, 1980)

The Lord sees, and the Lord brings blessings upon you and yours. Glory be the name of the Lord. Glory be the name of His children, forever and ever….

We shall bring love unto your hearts. We shall sprinkle teardrops across the valley of your hearts. Flowers shall bloom. Rejoice! Rejoice, for is this not the time that we prepare for, the time of the coming of the Messiah? (May 30, 1980)

Put your faith in the Messiah to come [and] our Father who art in you and in heaven. (July 18, 1980)

Love one another as you would wish the Messiah to love you. Love one another as you would wish God to love you. Ask not what God will give you. Ask not what God may do for you. Ask deep in your hearts what you shall give and do for God.

Let there be laughter in your hearts, and songs in your minds. Let the true meaning of what we have said here today come to you. Let it surround you like a lover. Let it mold into your ever-being. Let it be.

Take not from our words, nor add to. But let each one, as teardrops upon your earth, take that that should fulfill their needs. Bind together. Cast aside these things we have spoken of. Cast them aside and let the beautiful, [who] All-being, enter into you.

If another comes to you with negative thoughts, you do not need these. If another comes to you with anger, you do not need these. You do not have to pick them up. If another comes to you with greed, you need not pick this up. Pick up and cherish in your heart, in your soul, and allow that to enter into you which [would] make you a whole being. We have not left you. We have not forsaken you. We have not ceased to love you.

There is a time for all things. Let that time begin now, in you, in each of you. Let it reach into your souls, into your spirit. Let it become your immortal bodies, blended with God, and know that He loves you. (September 19, 1980)

We see that. And we say unto you, as we ask permission to answer questions, we, of the Council, are not great.

That that you know as Jesus Christ is now upon your Earth in body, and so is the body containing Buddha, Muhammad, for in this, of the Messiah, contains the spirit of the Lord, God, and those He has sent unto you. His first begotten son now awaits his time upon the Earth. We are here but for one purpose, and that is the preparation for His kingdom.

The One who we must ask permission from in answering questions that we are not normally allowed to answer is the Father, or God, as you would know.

We say unto you, glory be the name of the Lord, our God. Glory be the name of His children. And “upon the desert, by the sea, where the stars are shining in thirteen and more than three,” now grows strong, for he shall reign above the Anti-Christ. But we say unto those who should prepare the way for the Anti-Christ, beware, for none shall touch this one, and none shall crucify him. [See The Revelation, chapter 12.] (February 16, 1981)

Now we say unto you, for those of you who should hear these words, and who have built your houses of the Lord, and have these places you wish to go to, we are not here to change this. We are not here to take you from your churches. We are not here to change your religion, or your thought on religions. We are here but for one purpose, the preparation for the coming of the Messiah.

It makes little difference to us if your religion is pink or blue, or any other color, as long as it becomes a part of the preparation. It makes the Lord little difference if you have chosen a great cathedral or a small house as your church. It is but a meeting place, a place that you come that you may share your belief with God, and about God.

You, who have gathered about now, it is becoming time when a place of meeting shall be necessary. We have given you this parable in its form, that you might use the same judgment in building this.

But tomorrow you will come forth to praise God and to praise the work of those who have done God’s work. [Note: The 10th Annual Meeting of the Association of Universal Philosophy was held June 6, 1981, in Globe, Arizona, for the renewal of vows between the minister’s and teachers and God.]

Let this place be hallowed ground, let no man, nor woman, bring any thing within it except the love due and respect due to it. For as you have made this place a holy place, let the thought that sets with you now go with you tomorrow — and we shall be there, and the Lord, God, shall be there, not to judge you, but to applaud you. If you can see these things within yourselves, then we have grown a long way in the preparation [of] the coming of the Messiah. (June 5, 1981, a year before a church was built on Christmas Star route and dedicated to God)

If there is but one person who stands in the preparation for the coming of the Messiah, wherever they stand, so shall we. If all the things, or any part of the things that you do, you do in a Godly manner, reconcile your differences and bind together, but bind together also. Understand that the time grows short and whether it is seven, or one, or one thousand, or one million, for those who should bind together, they shall not wear the Mark of the Beast. (June 8, 1981)

Yes, we see thy need, and we shall answer in this manner, and in this way. Glory be the name of the Lord, thy God; glory be the name of His children, forever and ever.

And we say unto thee, take these words that we give you. Take them in such a way, as they are given, as a gift. Take them and use that part; [put] that that you need, and pass them on to another. Take not from them, nor add to, except to explain in such a manner that another may understand. We have come to you, not to take from you of anything; we have come with a gift. And the gift is a Messiah, the fulfillment of God’s promise unto His children of all races, of all colors, of all religions. We have come to prepare the way. (October 2, 1981)

But we shall not take from you the freedom of choice. Should you care to walk with the Anti-Christ, this is your choice. If you should care to walk with the Judas, this is your choice. If you should care to walk with those who should prepare the way for the coming of the Messiah, this shall be your choice — a freedom of choice, the most precious gift the Lord, God, has given you. Hold it dearly. Do not allow it to be taken from you.

For those who hold it in a righteous manner, we go before you to prepare a way, as we come before the Messiah to prepare a way. (October 9, 1981)

We come but for one purpose, the preparation for the coming of the Messiah. Believe us in what we say this day. (December 4, 1981)

Christmas Star Route in the wilderness of the Dripping Springs Mountains where the spiritual messengers of God led Ray in answer to many prayers to provide a safe place in time of disaster.

You think when you walk alone that you are alone. You are not, we walk with you. We hear your thoughts. We feel your hurts. We even feel your frustrations. But we say unto you, faith, love, hope — are not these the things that God built your Earth upon? Are not these the things that we gave you an instrument for?…

Help him by giving back the love. Help him by loving each other. Help him by loving yourselves enough to forgive yourselves. Remember, fear is a beast. It is like jealousy is a beast. Once it is given [the] fuel of your feelings, it grows and continues to grow, into a bigger and bigger, and greater monster. Hate is the same. You need these not in your lives.

Are we but one crying in the wilderness? Can you not hear us? Can you not feel us? When we have been with you every day, are we strangers to you?

Love one another. That is the words we give unto you, that are the same words the Messiah gave to you before. Know this, that your instrument, your prophet, bears a great knowledge that he may not even share with you. But if it is necessary, he shall give up his life for you. We plead unto you, do not make this necessary − for if he does, this world shall lose for all time, not just for now.

We speak to you with the words of our Father, who dearly loves you. (December 4, 1981)

Ray Elkins built and dedicated a church to God in the valley on December 5, 1982.

The valley has been given back, and therefore, a place has been provided.

We have told you before, that the one you wait for is upon the Earth. One day he shall come into your valley, as he had before. And from where he lays his hand, the dimensions of a new Earth shall grow — for the kiva of the springs are the three spirits, and the fourth spirit is the spirit of the one who came before, and the fifth spirit, making all things whole and holy, was that of the Messiah.

Place there in stone these things that we have asked you. And soon, flowers shall grow all around you, for soon that time shall come, the time when the hand shall be laid forth. Therefore, we ask you this night to let that sacred place within you begin to grow and release itself, all, therefore, about you. And let it grow in your hearts, for the most important one that shall be placed there shall be, “Love one another,” for it is the eleventh Commandment.

There are two others which we shall give you when the time is right. (March 5, 1982)

We are here to prepare the way for the coming of the Messiah. We are also here to bring you love and kindness and good wishes from the Lord, our God. As we have said before, ask and you shall receive. For those things which we have just mentioned are the richest of commodities. (June 24, 1983)

Ask yourself, in each task that you take, what is the most loving thing you can do for another? And then do it.

If you should take from your daily lives, and do this that we say, the world of peace that we all seek, the preparation for the coming of the Messiah, can be and shall be a reality. Now we say unto you, glory be the name of the Lord, thy God; glory be the name of His children. (September 9, 1983)

Take, therefore, that of the knowledge we give you, and put wings upon it, and allow it to go unto the multitude, that healing may come into their souls, for now is the time that we prepare for the coming of the Messiah. Now is the time when we prepare for the Master to walk upon the earth again. (November 11, 1983)

Now I say unto you unto these words. The Lord, thy God, has said unto you, “WHETHER YOU BELIEVE THAT MY SON WAS A PROPHET, OR WHETHER YOU BELIEVE IN ANY MANNER, THAT IS ENOUGH. BUT IF YOU TAKE OF MY COMMANDMENTS AND HOLD THEM SACRED UNTO YOURSELVES,” and if the commandment you hold, “You have not forsaken the Lord, thy God, that He shall become first before all others,” then that is the first step in this day and in this time for the preparation of the coming.

In your hearts you are all beginning to feel good. You are all beginning to feel that something special is about to happen in your lives. For some of you, you feel it should be fear, or to be afraid of. What is to come forth now is to come forth with the blessings of the Lord. So as you prepare to celebrate the birth of the Christ child, celebrate also that the time of the waiting is short, but soon, greater things than you shall know of at this time are in the making.

Hold your heads into the heavens, hold your hearts and souls into your beliefs. Let joy ring upon the Earth. Let each person become a part of that joy. Let no one discourage you. Let no one take this from you. If they try, cast it aside, and pick up the joy and love that can only come from the preparation of the coming of the Messiah, and the preparation for the celebration of the birth of the Christ child. (December 2, 1983)

Parable of the Birth of Jesus

Yes, we see thy need, and we should answer in this manner and in this way. Glory be the name of the children of God; glory be the name of the Lord, thy God, forever and ever.

And we shall say to you this parable and in this manner.

For in the time that it had come forth for the birth of the one known as Jesus of Nazara − and among the shepherds there did appear angels, and the angels announced unto them of the coming, therefore, and the birth of this one, they rushed forth unto their families, and they did bring their families with them as they went forth unto the town of Bethlehem.

And one of the shepherd’s son, who had heard the stories of the time when the Messiah would come, he had gone to the church reluctantly on the Sabbath. And he had heard the words that were spoken. He had sung the songs of Solomon. Yet he thought unto himself, “I go, therefore, to see a savior, and I am not fit. I have no gift to give them. I have but one lamb. And the one lamb has been an orphan. And this mighty Messiah, though it be born in a manger, might not accept my gift.”

But he decided to take it with him anyway. And when he arrived there he saw the Magis waiting, the kings, wise men, in their rich attire. Even their servants were dressed better than he, and even they had gifts that far was better than what he had.

Yet, as it was written, so it would be, that the Jewish people would be the first to witness the birth of the child.

And so the shepherds went forth in, and knelt there to give their thanks and bring their gifts.

Joseph walked to the boy and put his hand on his shoulder, and said unto him, “What a fine gift you have brought my son. It is my sincere hope that my son shall grow to be like you.”

The boy was astounded. “How could this be so? How could such words be spoken? Why would he wish the Messiah would be as he?” For he knew his downfalls. He knew the things that he was and the things that he wasn’t.

As he walked outside, then the great kings walked up to him and said, “What does he look like; tell us?” And he looked at them. Here were great kings of other lands asking him, a shepherd boy.

And he said unto them, “For there is no greater sight than that that you shall behold.” And sudden he could not understand why he was speaking in the terms which he was speaking in.

As the kings came forth, the shepherds had all filed out. And Joseph walked out among them, and went to his father. And he said unto his father, “The Lord, God, has made it known that we must flee this land and go unto the land of Egypt. Would it be possible that your son could travel with us, and tend our flock, such as it has become, and be the companion of my son?”

The shepherd boy’s father looked unto Joseph, and said, “Yes, take my son, for he is the greatest treasure I have.”

The boy was overwhelmed, for he was the greatest treasure his father owned? Such great compliments.

And then as the kings came forth outside, the light of the star looked mighty. And the angels’ voices would sing joy to the Earth on high. And Gabriel said unto them, “For you have given the greatest gifts of all.”

The lad was bedazzled. Light shone in the sky like he had never seen before. Every star had its own color.

As the party made ready the next morning to leave, and him with it, it would be many years before he returned back into his father’s house with all the stories of all the lands that they had visited.

And he would spend the rest of his life tending the flock, that the one known as Jesus of Nazara, as he had grown had shown him, but with a flock of men. He was glad that Jesus never chose him as a disciple. And Jesus knew that he did not wish to be chosen, that his greatest joy came from that of the tasks that he did well.

The story we have told you is a common story, a story that you could take in texts from any book. It has neither new wisdom nor old wisdom. But it has wisdom that is for the day and the time in which you live.

As you near the season and celebrate the birth of the one known as Jesus of Nazara, remember, sometimes it is greater to receive than to give, and sometimes it is greater to give than receive. It is also not the greatest gift of worldly goods that can be given, but the friendship from one person to another.

The greatest gift that can be given was the gift that was brought from the Lord, God, unto you upon that night of nights, and it was the gift of love and the sharing that the Lord wished to do with you, because He knew that you were of His kind, [of] His likeness.

You have questions, ask.

“Thank you, Aka. [2–30–2] asks, ‘After rereading the last two readings, it appears that you are trying to tell us that the only way we can know if you are telling us is that transfer is in our hearts; is this what you are trying to say?’”

Yes. From within yourselves.

Long ago, the one known as John the Baptist did come forth, and he did say unto them, who would listen, to turn around, to look within themselves. As he baptized with water, he said the one who would come after him would baptize of the Spirit. And so it still is this day.

As you make ready in the hearts men the preparation for the coming of the Messiah, it is with the baptism of your spirit that you shall know one another.

You have other questions, ask.

“Thank you, Aka. [10–381–1] asks, ‘Please clarify the reading that you gave me concerning my apprenticeship to Joseph, husband [of] Mary. And how does this relate to the land that I am going to see in [new] Arizona tomorrow?”

(Chuckle.) What you seek is the contingence of what lies in the valley of the springs. [Editor’s note: The valley lies beneath the Dripping Springs Mountains in Arizona on Dripping Springs Road––formerly named Christmas Star Route].

It has continue[d] one more place where man may live in true harmony if he wishes − where man may rise above his acts of [in]discretion because of race, or color, or creed, or religion.

One of the kings of kings, [from] the Magis, came from the kingdom of Ethiopia. And until of recent times, of that of the Communist takeover of Ethiopia, freedom to worship in the Jewish manner was an accepted way, as that of the Christian manner and Moslem.

We say unto you, what you take from the well here, you shall take and transplant it in the fertile soil of the Pleasant Valley, if that is thy wish. Bring it into reality and make it so.

You say unto us, “What has all this that you have told us to do with the relationship of Joseph?”

Go unto the first of the reading where Joseph went unto the lad and asked him, come with him unto the land of Egypt and tend his flock…. (December 16, 1983)

You have other questions, ask.

“Thank you, Aka. Soul Ruth asks, ‘Since this is the Advent season please tell us of the early life of John the Baptist.’”

John and Jesus

(Chuckle.) We shall say unto you these things, for as you know, soul Ray is I, and I am soul Ray. And as I am soul Ray, so am I and he both John, being the same.

Contrary to the thoughts of most, John was not the most [saintly] of lads.

One day, John went forth unto Nicodemus’s date orchard. And there, he did climb forth and harvest most of the crop. And he did set forth a peddler’s stand and undersold all the other. He had a thriving business until Nicodemus found him. And there was placed in the Bible once and for all, “If you spared the rod you would spoil the child.”

Honey was another of his favorites. He soon found that the bees did not sting him, but let him freely take all the honey he wanted. [Yataweh] was the keeper of the bees, and many a day he did turn his back and allow John to steal honey from him. It was not long until all the boys in the Essene camp thought John was the greatest.

Jude, which was one of John’s teachers, took John unto his mother, Elizabeth, and said, “Is it not written that, ‘Thy shall not steal?’”

And Elizabeth, who had pampered John mightily, knew that it was time that she corrected her son. And she said, “Bring forth unto me a staff,” and told John to bend, therefore, unto a chair.

John, as he was bending, said, “But Mother, there is a great difference in borrowing and stealing.”

Elizabeth looked unto John and said, “Yes, but when should we repay him?”

And John said unto her, “It’s, Mother, when my cousin who is the heir of the throne becomes the king.”

None of them knew that John knew that he was the heir himself to the throne of Israel, and that there were only two true heirs to the throne left. They were so astounded of his knowledge that they forgot to beat him that day.

And I know that in another lifetime Elizabeth spent many times keeping John from getting his just dues. Yet his knowledge, from childhood, of where he had been and where he was going astounded all. For they knew within their heart’s eye − for here in truth was the prophet, Isaiah, and they were not sure, that both Abraham and Isaiah lived within him.

There are many stories we could tell you. But the stories we have told you are the stories that you know him by now. He is man. He is prophet. He loves to tease and be teased. He loves to laugh, but never to laugh at others, to laugh with them. He will go many miles out of his way to see that an injustice is undone. The wisdom of the ages lies within his mind, yet he tells you and shares with you that which you need to know. As you have known him as friend and brother, so you have known him now.

Is there so much difference? Would he not throw you into the water and baptize you now, and laugh when he did so?….

[We should say unto you these words before we part.] Rejoice, as John rejoiced the first day that Mary came unto her cousin, Elizabeth, and he saw, therefore, his cousin and the Messiah, and knew that it was all so. Rejoice, and know that the Messiah is with you, for he lives upon the Earth. He breathes the same air you breathe.

And his time will come, if you make it so.

But rejoice, as he will rejoice with you, for as you shall have a Christmas tree so shall he. As he gives presents and you give presents, in your mind’s eye, be as the shepherd boy. Reserve your greatest gift that you might give it unto him.

We say unto you, shalom. Lehaim! (December 16, 1983)

A Parable of the Gift of the World

[Listen here.] And we shall say unto thee these words into this manner and in this way. Glory be the name of the Lord, thy God; glory be the name of His children forever and ever.

And we shall say unto thee this parable, in this manner, and in this way.

For we say unto thee, if thy ask the Lord, thy God, for the world, how should thy know when thy receive it if thy have not the faith in the Lord to know that that of thy needs are taken care of? How will you know, when you receive the world? For the world is like the word of God, for it is the word of God. It is the word of God of a promise for the home of all mankind upon the Earth, mankind as you know it upon this world, for it is His word. And it is His light that He has brought unto you and shineth upon you for all the days of thy life. And it is His rain that drops upon you and gives you crops and an abundance of all things.

Who is it should challenge the Lord? Is it not written that, “Thou shall not tempt the Lord, thy God?” For what is temptation [done] to the Lord?

It is said, “As the Lord says, ‘I SHALL PROTECT THEE,’” that is enough. For the Lord is of all things, and beeth of all people, and dwell[s] in the house, or the hearts, of all man.

If the Lord come[s] unto thee and say, “DWELL WITH ME IN MY HOUSE; COME UNTO MY MANSIONS; BE WITH ME BOTH DAY AND NIGHT UPON YOUR EARTH; LET ME WALK WITH YOU IN ALL WAYS THAT WE BIND AND BECOME ONE, THAT THE SPIRIT OF GOD DOES ENTER YOU, AND THEREFORE, LOVE, HOPE, AND FAITH BECOMES THAT OF A NATURAL THING,” all these things we have spoke of is the tools that is needed in the preparation for the coming of the Messiah. For if it is not built in the hearts of man, how can it be when that day arrives, when that hour, when that moment when he walks up to you and says, “Good morning!” how do you know then that it he that is speaking to you?

The Lord has spoken to you, each of you, many times.

Listen to this parable here.

How often in your lives have you said unto the Lord, “Oh Lord, give this unto me, and I shall be Thy servant forever and ever?” The Lord has overlooked thy imperti­nence, thy ill manners, and given unto thee that which you wish. He has even overlooked your promise, for as soon as you receive that which you wish, you go on until the next time, and then thy ask again, “Oh Lord, give this unto me and I shall be Thy servant forever and ever.”

The Lord knows the intent of thy heart and knows where it dwells, both day and night, for there is nothing hidden from the Lord, and nothing to be uncovered in front of Him, for the world is seen in one glimpse, and the [land] and the world turneth as the Lord intended [it]. And all of the other planets in the heavens do turneth as He intended [it]. And the star, or the sun, does give off unto thee the life-giving warmth to bring life unto the earth that it may ferment and bring forth life unto itself.

We say unto thee, for what would we have said unto you is a true thing. If you would see within it that which lies within thy heart and soul, and be of it unto all things, let it be as a beacon in thy heart. Let it be as a beacon to guide thee, to keep thee from the rocky edges of life, and lead thee into smooth water.

Let it be that thy see it in such a way that into all religions of all mankind, unto all races and colors and creeds, that thy cannot harm thy brothern, for thy know that this is thy brothern, even if his speech is different and look is different − and even if he builds his churches different than you. For the greatest thing that you can see is the love of the Lord.

Walk unto the forest and look about thee and see the balance of all things. Quickly you will learn that the checks and balances have kept thy Earth as it is.

If thy think thy Lord, thy God’s, task is an easy one, then say unto the Lord, “I shall be the Lord.” If the Lord sees fit and grants unto thee this, you shall soon find that all these things that we take idly as everyday things are true blessings of the Lord, are true miracles of the Lord, from life everlasting to birth and death, and life again − to know that there is no death, to know there is the Word, and the Word was God, and it was good. And it was like the sweetest of all wines. It was like the tasting of the most beautiful, and wonderful fruit of the lands.

If you went upon each land and they gave you the best of all things, and [for] on receiving all of these you returned home, and you began to count them, would you count the material item, or would you count also the blessing, the warmth that went with the giving? And would you also count the blessings of the Lord that you might travel and be there and come this day the gifts are bestowed upon you?

We say unto you, in the time of all troubled times, look unto the light of the aura, and know that there is no trickery, that there are no lies, there is no jealousy, there is no spitefulness or spiteful things to be said, for there is nothing to be gained from such things as that. Know that in your heart you wish to give the love of the Lord unto others, and return the love that He gives unto you. Feel the warmth flow from the heart, and know that it goes unto the Lord. He does not cast aside, for any time that you wish to love the Lord, love Him, and He shall feel the warmth and know that you wish Him, and He shall come unto thee and be with thee.

If you truly wish to know the Lord is with thee, go to an altar and pray. It makes no difference of what kind, as long as it suits you, it will suit the Lord. Go to the well and drink, and if the water is good, know it comes from the Lord, and it’s a gift [of] the Lord, for it is life in itself.

Glory be the name of the Lord, thy God, forever and ever. (January 6, 1984)

It is written that if the Eagle spreads its wings and covers the Messiah child, it shall be protected. [See The Revelation, chapter 12.] (January 6, 1984)

We asked you this question, for we have come to prepare the way for the coming of the Messiah. If the Lord asked you tomorrow to pick up everything you had, or leave it behind and go forth and serve a baby, would you do so? Would you have the faith in your heart to do this − to leave your family, to leave your friends, to leave the country into which you knew so well, to journey into a foreign land, to serve a Messiah that you had never seen?

It may sound strange that we have brought this question to you, but we say unto you, each of you, look deeply in your hearts and in your soul, and see if in truth you could do this. (January 13, 1983)

And this is what we wish to say unto you. This space in-between times that you walk in, it is of the heavens and the earth; it is a place that you prepare that the Lord, God, may lay His head. It is the most important time of all, this moment, this twinkling of a star in the heavens. We are here but for one purpose, and that is to bring forth the heaven[s] unto the earth and prepare, therefore, the coming of the Messiah.

The spiritual messengers of God, Aka, arrived with a bright heavenly light as it drew closest to Earth on Good Friday, March 26, 1970. Read about it here.

As we have said before, your thirteenth years has passed, and now we look unto the few next. When those times have passed away, then the half-times in truth shall be over. There shall be no more half wars, nor wars at all. But until that time comes, the covenant of the Lord shall be fulfilled.

There are many who shall say once again we have spoke in riddles. But we say unto you, for the wise to hear, let them hear; for the wise to see, let them see. And if they look deep enough, and listen sharp enough, they shall hear and see that which we have brought forth to be seen and heard. (January 27, 1984)

Behold, for we came unto all. And as we have come our purpose has not changed. We came to prepare the way for the coming of the Messiah, a very real person who shall live and does live upon your earth at this time. He will come in the flesh and in the spirit, and in the soul, for he should come as a whole. We come to prepare the way for this. As we came before, many shall say we are howling in the wilderness. [See Luke 3:2–9.] (September 14, 1984)

“Thank you, Aka. [16–490–4…Globe, Arizona] says, ‘Why do I feel drawn towards members of the Association?’”

We say this unto you, for they are here to prepare the way for the coming of the Messiah. Once before a way was prepared for the one known as Jesus of Nazara. He came, as a man, to walk among you. We prepare the way for the coming of the Messiah, as was done before. (September 28, 1984)

Yes, we see thy need, and we shall answer in this manner and in this way. Glory be the name of the Lord, thy God; glory be the name of His children forever and ever.

And we should say unto thee this parable.

For once, in the land that you know as Jerusalem, men came, learned men, men of science, engineers, craftsmen; from all over the world men of knowledge gathered. And with them came the scholars of religions of all faiths, and they were welcome. This was so during the days of Aaron. For Moses had said, “In the day that thy rise a city to God, make it the center and the hub of the world.” And so it was. It remained so until those of the Judaean faith became jealous, and declared that it was ungodly for any man to come and speak his mind in such a manner, that if God had wanted it so He would have made it so.

Now through all the time that did pass no one dared to trespass upon this ruling. And the State of Israel fell piece by piece, day by day, week by week, until it became a very weak nation before man and God.

And then came the day that the descendent of Maccabee from the line of David came. And there [were] two –– first, one to be beheaded, the other to be crucified. And the State of Israel fell into dust. Now according to the prophecies of Isaiah, according to all the great prophets, this was to be so –– even according to the newer prophet, John.

And then came forth the birth of Israel. From the dust, from the ashes, it rose. And once again it brought forth scientists. And gradually it has become a great nation to stand among nations. In a short while it shall reach forth and stand, once again, in its greatest time of trial, to stand as a nation, for once again, those of the Judaean faith, there will be those who shall try to exterminate them.

Now amongst them dwells a young man. And amongst the young men he knows of that of who he is. And he is that who we have waited for.

In another land, in the land that you now look at as a friendly Arabian nation, the land you call Saudi Arabia, dwells that that is known as the Anti-Christ. And the peace that was brought forth between Egypt and Israel shall soon be known as a false peace.

Editor’s note: Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin and Egyptian president Anwar el-Sadat received the 1978 Nobel Prize for Peace for achieving a peace treaty between Israel and Egypt that was formally signed in 1979. Sadat was assassinated in 1981 by radical religious fundamentalists who erroneously thought he had betrayed their plans to annihilate Israel.

We say unto you, beware. For the hour and the days are close at hand. If we knew the exact day we would give this to you, but only the Lord, God, knows it. And when He is ready, He will give you this information.

We can say to you, hope that it is not in the winter time. And we say unto you, if you work in the field and you see it, do not return to your home for your coat, but flee, for you shall have no home. [See Matthew 24:15–22.]

We say unto you, there are those who would hurry this about − and they are in your own land. There are those who could prevent this now from happening, and they are in your own land. Beware. For once before, in the month of December, your country was struck a cowardly blow (Pearl Harbor, 1941)….(October 19, 1984)

It is said, “Seek and you shall find.” Look and you shall see. Listen and you shall hear.

The sincerity which you wish is but about you. Listen and you shall hear that which is wisdom. Look and you shall see the truth within the wisdom, and the sincerity of the same, for it is about you. Can you not see that that day is here? Do you not look at the seasons and know it is winter, or autumn, or spring, or summer? [See Matthew 24:32–33.]

Look now at the season. Do you not know that this is the season of the Messiah? Do you not know that about you is the greatest time of all times? Your opportunity to express your free will is abundance. For behold − the day is soon at hand! For the gateway of the Lord is being lowered before you. (October 19, 1984)

You have searched for a Messiah, when the Messiah need not be searched for. When he arrives he shall let you know, when he’s ready for you. (November 9, 1984)

There shall be many people who shall argue the points of who the Messiah is. When that time comes, you shall have no problem knowing of him. For it is written, “He shall come as the morning star, and he shall arise where the mountains roar.” We have said to you before, in fullness, these things that are so. If you interpret them in different manner, we cannot stop you from doing this. But believe in belief and the hope shall be in the God of one. (November 16, 1984)

Now we say unto you, our time has grown very short. And so we shall answer unto the mind of he who asks.

And no, the time is not over. It is but the beginning of times. The time and preparation of the Messiah has just begun. Soon it shall swell and the membership shall grow as the pebbles upon the ocean, for we have promised to fulfill your needs.

There will [not] be those who drop away, and this is their desire and this is their need. But have they truly dropped away? For their time that they have spent will have been accounted for into their soul, and shall be taken to account into the days thereafter before the Lord.

But we say unto you, what the Lord giveth, no man may taketh. And we say unto you, the light and the beacon shall intensify until the radiance shall be as a blinding light before man.

The time is just begun. It is not over.

Now is the time of the Cherubim. (May 24, 1985)

The spiritual messengers of God spoke these prophetic words at the 14th Annual Meeting in June 1986.

Yes, we see thy need. And we should answer in this manner. Glory be the name of the Lord, thy God. Glory be the children of God. And we shall say unto thee this parable.

For once upon the land, the Lord looked onto the Earth and looked into the times that would come. And He called forth His son, and He said, “SEND THEE THERE ONE WHO SHALL PREPARE THE WAY FOR YOUR COMING.” And so, one was selected. And he went there before.

And he went into the multitude as he grew older, and he preached to the many, and he gave of himself, all of himself. He gave nothing unto himself. He prepared for that day when the Son, the first-begotten Son of God, would appear on the Earth and be known to man. He kept himself clean. And he took naught into his body that would not keep his body clean. And he prayed to the Lord, thy God, as was called of him and as he was taught. He did all these things. And he tried to make the land of Israel ready for the coming. Yet he knew that it would not be only in the land of Israel, it would be on all the land.

John the Baptist

And so he ventured forth. And he went unto Egypt. And he went, therefore, unto all the lands of the Earth. And he did preach and talk, and say, “The Lord, thy God, has sent His Son. Be prepared. Change your ways. Be transformed.” And all there did hear him speak.

Some were greatly impressed by that which he had to say. Others, who should by all right, and of their teaching, made way and ready for this time — and they did not make ready for their time, for they plotted only for the prophet’s death.

And he went unto the Lord, and he said, “God, my Father, I who have come as You have ordered to prepare the way, why have You made it so hard for me? Why is it that those who should know the most know the least? Why is it that they can not hear Thy words as I speak them?”

And the Lord, God, said, “The Earth is not an easy world, at best, to live upon. And we can make it no easier for them to hear.”

And so he went back upon the Earth and he preached and he taught.

And that holy day did come forth. And the Messiah walked among men and talked to men. And he walked unto all lands of the Earth. In some he was received greatly; in some, in his homeland, he was denied. And there, in his own homeland, this prophet did die.

Many of you know this story we have just told you. Many of you who hear our words will say, “Why have they spent this time to speak of such a thing?”

It is but a small thing to know the time of year to plant and the time of year to harvest and put aside that which you need for winter. We say unto you, it is that time − it is a time to harvest, and plant at the same time. Harvest the grain that you have planted in the fields, and plant it, so that the seed of man may multiply and hear the words that we have brought unto you. For time grows short.

As we read Aka’s words above from 1986 when many Ministers, Teachers, members and friends came to the Association of Universal Philosophy’s Annual Meeting, we see their prophectic words. All they said has come true, except the ending. Are the last four paragraphs for us in this time, now? In 2020, it did not rain at all summer for the monsoon season at a church to God in Arizona, or even for about nine months. “Exceptional drought” covered 76.8 percent of Arizona, Even since Ray Elkins’s passing in 2000, Arizona has had drought. Although the AUP’s church to God experienced this drought, in many ways, it is still beautiful. Those who come say they see God’s blessings there, within it and all around. This photo was taken after the Thanksgiving service, November 29, 2020. One who rode with the minister to attend this sesrvice, reverently swept and vacuumed the church beforehand, then mowed and trimmed the grass until sunset afterward. He also videotaped the service, which was shared on Facebook the next Sunday, for those who wish to attend church, but may not be able to come from where they live. Through loving hearts, our Father’s love abounds, as He still sees to our needs. And then, early Christmas Day, it rained!

How would you measure time? We measure it by your time, that you may understand of which we speak. There shall be many who shall cast asunder, [of] this work, and others shall accept it and embrace it and know the truth of it.

And tomorrow you shall have your Annual Meeting. And you shall come forth and light your candles and say those things that have been prepared to say.

And we say unto you, for [in] all that we promised we have given. For we told you before, for those who should not believe shall leave the valley, and the valley shall become as one. In the worst of times the greatest of things shall happen.

When you look upon the Earth and think not, that the righteous shall rise upon the Earth, is when they shall be righteous and rise, and captivate the Earth.

Hear our words − and we say unto you, believe, therefore, in us this day. We do not lie to you. We have come to you in truth. Through the many years we have come.

We say to you, each prepare your houses for the day that the Lord shall be here, that you may welcome him, and allow him to enter. (Spiritual messengers of God, Aka, June 6, 1986)

The church was dedicated to God by Ray Elkins through whom the spiritual messengers of God spoke in December 5, 1982, on the first day of Advent — a season of awaiting the birth of Jesus, or the coming of the Messiah. God sends His spiritual messengers, as before through John the Baptist, to prepare a way for the Messiah’s coming in this time. Wil the righteous soon rise and captivate the Earth? Will the long-awaited day come? Will we welcome him into God’s house and our homes?

But we say unto you, look into your hearts to find a truth. The truth is there, in the quiet part of your minds. Look there. And we say to you, love costs nothing, yet it brings and grows everything. Love given is a beautiful thing.

There are many types of love. A jealous love is no good. A loving love, an open love that has no boundaries reaches unto the four corners of the earth. Let it flow from each of you. Let it become your guiding star. If you should do so, you can be the beginning of the coming of the Messiah….

And we say to you, look unto your star. (September 26, 1986)

Yes, we see thy need; we should answer in this manner. Glory be the name of the Lord, thy God; glory be the name of His children for ever and ever.

And we shall say this parable in this manner and in this way.

For many people ventured forth in the land you would call the Holy Land, that of Bethlehem. They did make pilgrimage there. For there was the birth and the beginning of the Christian religion. Yet, it sits in the heart of the land of Judaism, and there is a heart of the Moslem religion.

Remember these words, for in each is like a huge circle, each a part of the other. Each could not exist without the other. If you destroyed one part, you have destroyed the whole. Yet, allow one part to grow, and you allow them all to grow, for they are bound together.

There are many parts of the Buddha religion, and the Buddhists of many sectors and parts, and they do not make war upon one or another. They have found a way of sharing their God. If only all others would do the same.

For as we reach forth unto this time, the time that you shall set aside to celebrate the birth of Jesus of Nazareth, the Christ, set aside the time, each of you, in you in your hearts and souls, that may we find a way to live among each other in peace and harmony.

2018 U.S. National Christmas Tree during the tree lighting ceremony on the Ellipse in Washington, D.C.

We have seen all nations. But you, who live in this you call the United States of America, are of all nations, of all colors and creed[s]. You have brought forth a great nation dedicated to justice and liberty for all, before God. That and that alone has set you aside from all other nations and has allowed all religions to flourish within the same.

Yes, you have those who would say this or that about a religion − and they have the freedom of speech to say. In another land they would not.

We say unto you, this nation shall stand, for it shall be both the birthplace and the walking place, that which he should be known upon, that of the Christ child.

We say unto you, if we seem to speak in riddles, we do not. For your land and your earth, each day that passes grows once into another. As you celebrate the birth of Jesus of Nazareth, celebrate his return, and know it in your hearts.

The words we are speaking are puzzling to you here tonight. But we say to you, it is but the prophecy coming true.

Now we should say unto you, your country shall shake as though a great tree has struck it. It shall tremble as though a great earthquake. A change is in the wind. There will be some who think you are weak at this time, and they will think of attacking this country. If there is to be a transition, and there shall be, of power, it must go smoothly now, lest you rip down the walls of your own freedom.

But we say harken into you, and look, therefore, into your hearts. Find joy, one unto another. Give, one unto another. Do not make rules to bind each other, but say, “Here, my friend, is my love and my care, but I give it to you without attachments.” And receive back the fellowship that is given. Do so in such a way that upon a friendship great things may be rebuilt. Do so in such a way that it allows all of you to become as a child this season. Allow the world to know that from this point a light shall begin to shine. Let it reach out.

When you leave this place and go unto your homes, take gladness and spread it among you.

We have given you a gift. We gave you this gift in the form of a healer. But we have given you many gifts. We expect nothing in return.

The greatest gift that you can give yourself and another is to find happiness in yourself and where you dwell. And others shall see the happiness within you, and the joy, and they will crowd close to you as though seeking warmth from a fire. And they too shall find happiness within themselves, and gladness. For being happy with oneself where you are, and knowing that love is given as a precious gift − give unto the Lord one tenth of the love He has given unto you this day. And rejoice in your hearts!…

For some there shall be an eternity. For some there shall be never. For some there shall be now. You are all parts of all things you have ever been. And who you are now is the most important time of all, for you have a chance to become part of the preparation for the coming of a Messiah, the greatest time this Earth shall ever know….

We say unto you, glory be the name of the Lord, thy God; glory be the name unto His children. And we say to you, may the Lord bring forth unto your hearts the warmth, the love, the glory that is intended. May the Cherub be with you. May you walk in the light of he who is to come, and he who has come, yet they should be of the same. Yet the time shall be different.

As you stand around and see the conjecture [conjunction] of the stars that shall come together, look unto the heavens, for they are writing upon the sky, the fullness of the time.

Once, Jesus of Nazareth said, “Can you not read the seasons? Can you not see the time that is about you?” We say unto you the same. Let the gloryness and the holiness and the joy of God dwell in each soul; let them take it forth with them. Let the glory of God be with you. (December 19, 1986)

“Thank you, Aka. W___ H_____, who is here tonight, asks, ‘Aka, would you please explain to us again the Council of Thirteen, for many new members are asking at this time?’”

We should say unto you, that they stand of twelve, and the Thirteenth shall be the Father, God. And for those who should be [asked] to come prepare the way, for those who should know Him best and know these things that would be needed upon the Earth, for we’re as close as His heartbeat and His teardrops. We are here but for one purpose, to prepare the way for the coming of the Messiah, but we come unto soul Ray, for he is I and we are he. It should be difficult at times to understand that we have tried to use your language and your language barriers to reach through and say unto you, come unto yourselves. Learn to love one another. But learn to love yourselves. (May 1, 1987)[Learn more here.]

We have said before, we have but one purpose, and that is for the coming and the preparation for the coming of the Messiah. We come but [for that]. (July 31, 1987)

We say unto you these things. But we also say unto you the greatest of all things, the fulfillment that you have celebrated for so long, the birth of the Messiah.

Within the joy of all things and all times, is the greatest joy of walking with one’s God, walking with the Father of us all — He who cares, He who loves, He who is the giver of all. For in the awesome twilight for all disaster the Lord shall spread His mercy upon the land. For those things we can tell you of, only of those things we know. Yet we know not fully the full plan of the Lord. (December 4, 1987)

Now we say unto you, as the Lord prepares the Earth and the Earth prepares itself for the coming of the Messiah, many things shall change and become known unto man. But unless you reach for something how can it be given?

Put your hand in your heart and let it become one. Believe in the way of the Lord –– for the Lord has never ceased to believe in you. Cast aside your thoughts that are petty. Give yourself clean and perfect thoughts. It makes no difference who did what in the past. That will not get you well. It is the here and now that we are dealing with. Allow –– allow this to come forth into your life. (August 16, 1988)

We say unto you these words; the Messiah is upon your earth. He shall come into his own being here in 1999 and you shall know of him, but you have touched and known and heard before this time. For only the Lord, God, shall share that information at the time and place that He wishes.

But know this: he walks among you; not as a spirit, but yet as one, for he shall be a body, a soul, a spirit and immortal body.

All things will be as they have been before; only you shall not be allowed to shed the blood of the Lamb, for the time that you wish, your thousand years, are but ahead of you. But they can begin any time you wish and be extended.

Many of you shall see him walk in the valley and shall walk with him. Believe. (March 24, 1989)

Then we see your need, and we would say unto you, unto the greater things of the land so shall a gift be given. Each of you in your own way have asked and have been given from this gift. But we say unto you, a gift should be given with dignity and received with dignity. And just because you have a cup that runneth over does not mean that you cannot appreciate the cup or he who fills it.

But understand something − we come but to prepare the way for the coming of the Messiah. We come to bring Ray’s flock close to God. Now we say unto you, glory be the name of the Lord; glory be the name of His children.

Yet we say unto you, glory be unto he who is about his Father’s work….

You have other questions, and we see into those, the greatest that you shall ask for in your tomorrow. Look around. You shall see the rose and you shall see the thorns no more.

Let each of you come in truth of heart and soul. But we say unto you, do not judge yourself so severely that you try to cast unto [out the] best part of you away. Each of you are unique in your own way, and each of you have a gift hidden inside of you that shines through and is given to others.

Glory be the name of the Lord; glory be the name of those who serve the Lord.

Now is the time of the cherubim. (June 9, 1989)

We will tell you these words. For we [come] but for one purpose, and one purpose only − for the preparation for the coming of the Messiah. So did your soul Ray come for but one purpose and prepared himself, that he might prepare the way for the coming of his brother.

We say unto you, that the last be first and the first be last, that the words of the Lord shall be glorious in all places [and] all times. (August 30, 1989)

Please join us!

Hear angels announce, “The Child has been born.”

Enjoy knowing more about how the spiritual messengers of God came and the gift the Father sends them to give us in “A Stairway to Heaven.” You can even read all the transcripts of their words from 1970 to 1989.

You can listen to some of the recorded words the spiritual messengers of God spoke to us on the birth and the coming of the Messiah.

Why is the recording quality sometimes hard to hear? It’s because they’re authentic! (They were recorded by amateurs in the 1970s and 1980s, long before people learned to make recordings with smart phones). Still, unlike the shepherds in the fields watchng their flocks at night when the angel of the Lord appeared, at least we did have a tape recorder. Read about it here.

God bless you.

Spiritual messengers of God, Aka, arrived in late March 1970, with a brilliant heavenly light. We are here...to prepare a way for the coming of the Messiah.
