Chapter 109:
Matter Defined
<< Previous | Home | Next >>
1. SPIRIT is not Matter.
2. I say ye canst have Matter without Spirit and Spirit without Matter, but Spirit hath the capability to clothe itself in many forms of Matter for special manifesting, or rather,
3. It is Spirit manifesting that causeth Matter, or is Matter through causation.
4. Spirit itself is invincible above all forms of Matter as ye know them, being in the abstract the Thought behind Matter.
5. Ye canst not make any manifestation of Matter without utilizing the Matter of some form or substance; thereat do ye have the incarnation principle. . . .
6. It is Spirit descending into Matter, or taking on Matter particles, that it may first see and conceive in terms of Matter, or etheric energy in pattern.
7. Be not misled: Matter of any kind is Ether in action, different kinds of Matter being different performances of Ether in action.
8. Ye know not that which Ether is while in mortality, in that there is no mortal analogy, or physical analogy, by which it is pictured unto the mind.
9. Thought is the force which deploying on Ether produceth that which ye call Motion; this Motion when obstructed, resulteth in that which is known as Force, and the concept by which all of it is rendered real unto your senses is Love.
10. Love is not an emotion, beloved; I say it is Transition; it is the essence of constructiveness which existeth in Thought or of Thought, when Thought hath any form of Matter on which to disclose itself.
11. Beloved, I speak unto you in symbolisms that are difficult of vision in that they are so limited; mistake me not, beloved.
12. Ye have concepts of Love which ye do term rapture.
13. What is rapture but the essence of Thought beyond translation in any form of symbolization known as words?
14. But there are symbols which define the thing called rapture in a higher spiritual realm; thus rapture is always relative, and is truly limited by the essence of its form.
15. I present for your logic that which is difficult in that all these terms and phrasings have a different meaning the higher ye enter the stratospheres of Love.
16. Men have that which they term Conscience.
17. I say Conscience is the aspect of God as each perceiveth it himself; thus Conscience is of Light, and Light is of Love.
18. Men have a light; it brightened the household, but behold they know not that even such phase of light is Love in its performance.
19. I say that the light which ye see with your eyes is only one phase of Light in its essence, verily a narrow phase of real incandescence.
20. Ye do have in life a condition called Death; have ye not spoken of the going out of the light in the physical body?
21. I say that ye speak truly: the Light Body moveth out permanently and cometh not back into that literal organism, no matter how many incarnational excursions the Light Body taketh.
22. Would that I could make you understand Light verily as I behold it from my stature and position.
23. We do make ourselves understood by Light, or Light in a form; ye do call them ideas;
24. Ye do speak of light breaking into the brain;
25. I say again that ye utter correctly: that Light cometh to you in a form beyond the radiant.
26. The nature of Light is twofold, beloved. . . the incandescent and transcendent; transcendent light doth the work of the universe, behold it existeth in all forms of matter, the true essence of Spirit perception though ye recognize it not.
27. Matter maketh Spirit to know itself as itself; when ye have said this, ye have uttered the universe.
28. And yet the confusing idea obtaineth that matter is the abiding-place of spirit, that when matter perisheth the spirit goeth likewise.
29. I say that it is error and the opposite of Truth.
30. Men have deceived you, being sluggards in their wits; they will not lift their eyes. They have looked upon matter and beheld it with their senses; they have said unto themselves, Were not our senses given to perceive the truth that is? behold without our sensings, naught is that seemeth to us!
31. They speak of the senses only of the body.
32. I say the soul hath senses; that which is seen of the soul is spiritual; that which is seen of the body is mortal.
33. Behold the mortal hath its place, that the spiritual rise above the mortal and be known for what it is.
34. The body is real but the soul hath its moment, verily the soul hath its transcendence, thereby proving the body to be mortal.
35. These are the things that I say with my lips: except ye disclose unto yourselves that soul transcendeth body and useth matter wantonly, then are ye blinded to the drama of the Infinite.
36. Verily, beloved, I would not have you blinded; I would give you the preachment that enableth you to manifest, yea in your godhood that transcendeth Reality. . . .
