Chapter 125:
The Sword That I Came Bringing
<< Previous | Home | Next >>
1. BELOVED, be counseled! . . .
2. I have told you of old that I came unto men to bring peace of a quality, but behold I told you also that I brought a sword unto man, that brother should be set against brother, and father at son.
3. What think ye was meant? Should I come as a conqueror, slaying mine enemies? Verily Mammon would have it so in false teaching.
4. But behold I came ennobling: I came summoning the warriors, calling up the mighty men, saying unto the righteous, Make the world beautiful, put down these workers of iniquities, hoist them on your banners, cast them down into chasms of blackness!
5. The wicked say, Not so! it is vile to lift the arm, even to succor the bodies of the stricken; behold we want peace among all peoples that they should be defenseless against our deft onslaughts!
6. I say I will have none of them. Peace hath her auguries, that men should buy her at a price.
7. Verily I know these schemers of old. They cry Peace! Peace! when there is no peace but their unhallowed doctrine.
8. I am Lord of the Righteous. I come to save sinners from their own folly. But thus do I save them, that they do perceive the vigorous man's task and perform it at my behest, that they raise a proud standard unto noble deeds and do them.
9. And he who sitteth in his door with his eyes turned heavenward and maketh no move to rescue his brother when his brother crieth out for succor from the evil one, joineth the adversary in his heart and performeth a lechery unto the cohorts of Mammon!
10. Thus say I this hour. I am tired of these preachers who say, The Lord of the Righteousness proclaimeth us to silence! . . . .whenever gave I the commandment that men should not do good, even at the cost of physical sacrifice?
11. Let the matter rest there. Presently cometh the chariots of Mammon, riding down the thinkers of pleasant thoughts, but the mighty men shall save them, those who have valor as their shibboleth and wield a strong arm to give the earth probity.
12. I am he whom ye love. I have rendered you my speaking.
13. Lift up your eyes to the bright gates; perceive ye the throng that ever battleth upward. . . .
14. Unto them is the Blessing who fear not to push upward; behold the gates await them, for by their acts they conquer them! . . .
