Chapter 189:
The Raiment of Logic
<< Previous | Home | Next >>
1. PERCEIVE that ye do war against your spirits in that ye say:
Behold am I created whole, and in that I am created whole, as
a whole will I manifest!
2. I tell you that ye do charge yourselves with obligations not
intended by the Father, for were ye of truth created whole then
wouldst ye have no need of those rigors that assail you.
3. Ye do grow as a vine that is planted in a garden. Ye do
take stature unto yourselves as corn upon a stalk, first the stalk
and then the ear, and then the corn upon the ear;
4. Thus attain ye unto your statures, and the Higher Worlds
receive you.
5. But say ye unto yourselves, Behold we are created whole,
then do ye mischiefs unto yourselves, for the spirit hath
knowledge of that which it encountereth; it perceiveth its destiny
and great is its confusion.
6. My beloved, be of one flesh until I come again. Know ye
your missions, each unto the other. Arise and be exceeding
glad that ye do grow even as corn upon its stalk, responsive to
the sunshine of that knowledge which refresheth you.
7. Thus come I again when the vine would be pruned and the
stalk would be garnered.
8. Abide in me, beloved. Know my sweet husbandry.
9. For except as ye have knowledge of that which happeneth,
ye cannot be sowed as seeds in a field;
10. Except that ye have knowledge of that which is Written,
ye cannot be numbered as sons of the Host.
11. The time cometh in when these matters shall be as
common report amongst you, when those who have
understanding shall bear witness unto their neighbors, when
those whose ways are dark shall be dazzled by the splendor,
yea even that light which maketh the face to shine as a mirror,
reflecting the truth of that which is eternal.
12. I say the time cometh when that which is good shall be
shown unto men, when that which is evil shall be purged from
their spirits, when that which is gross shall be winnowed
from the wheat and that which is noble shall be sung as an
anthem.
13. Are ye puzzled, beloved, by that which confronteth you?
Ye have comings and goings that savor of dread, ye have dire
executions of that which hath blackness, ye perceive not the
road by which ye would travel.
14. I say unto you: yet a little time endure and the track shall
be opened, yet a little time suffer and your redemption cometh
unto you.
15. Whereof have ye suffered? hath wisdom not been in it?
16. Whereof have ye endured? have any serpents stung you?
17. Wherefore have ye met tempests? hath calm not followed
tumult?
18. Persevere, I tell you, and know your redemption. Give your
hands unto the plow and perceive that ye have harvests.
19. Hath it not been said unto you that the Son of Man
cometh in a cloud of exceeding long glory in the making?
Think ye that he cometh of that which is sterile, of that which
hath perishment, which doth not nobly, which riseth not up to
give alms unto the intellect?
20. I say unto you that it hath been of common knowledge to
the ancients that man should follow man, and woman follow
woman, but whosoever followeth Him who cometh, receiveth a
blessing like unto those of saints.
21. Yea, it cometh unto him that seventy times seven he
knoweth the tumult, that seventy times seven he knoweth
tranquillity.
22. Arise and be wise! Perceive that even as ye do have me to
guide you, ye do make a great progress not known of the
worldly. Even as ye do come and beggar a blessing, ye receive
of the Host the bright garlands of wisdom.
23. I come not among you to cast evil into your intellects.
I come as a dove that would bring you those garlands.
I place them upon you. I say that ye have honor in that ye
receive it.
24. Arise and receive a goodly blessing, casting not from your
spirits the garments of reasonings but clothing yourselves in the
raiment of logic, that ye perceive why things be of which
Wisdom hath warned you.
25. Arise and count that moment lost which displayeth no
intellect, which marketh no reason, or which perceiveth not the
beauty of that which ennobleth even as it becloudeth, giving no
alms to circumstance for bringing experiencings.
26. Declare unto yourselves a new firmament, in which each
new sun riseth on blessings of speakings, making no evil
moment of that which transcendeth the bile of the spirit
encased in mortality, proposing no evils that undress the figure
of mortal approachments unto your divinities.
27. Arise and know a new God, a new Father, a new Son, yea
even a new Holy Spirit, that all these in One make a new
address unto you, opportuning you to privilege, to cast out old
devils yet to bear them no malice, believing that the Holy One
hath His providence toward them, that those who are unclean
may be clothed in new bodies.
28. Thus I address you, thus I adjure you. Ye have knowledge
of me that transcendeth the wayward, ye have wisdom of the
Father that bestoweth a victory. Gain ye unto wisdom that the
Holy Spirit triumph in you and the majesty of Pain have its
complement in Reason.
29. See to it that ye sin not against the Doctrine but embark
with sure faith on a sea of black doubtings, believing that your
craft hath an anchor to windward, and that under the tempest
there ruleth a conqueror. . . .
