THE BOOK OF THE HIGH PLACE
1Elohim Heavenly Mother: Ponder the deep, Elohim. Is it not a great question?
2Elohim Heavenly Father: Look out into the deep, Elohim, and tell Me what You see.
3Elohim Heavenly Mother: I see space there – space to fill, space to build, space to do a great thing. Long have I pondered the deep and wondered why it remains so dark and empty. Should it not be filled with light? Should it not be filled with wonder and beauty? Where We are, there is light and truth. Our own parents provided this for Us and We rose up by line and by precept to become like them. Why do We look out upon the deep and see emptiness? It is a thing that should not be.
4Elohim Heavenly Father: We look upon where We are and see what is real. Out yonder there is no one to see Us. Indeed there is no one to see at all. What need then, has the deep of light, and wonder, and beauty? Our work is for the world in which We find Ourselves. Why should We ask for more than what is?
5Elohim Heavenly Mother: I am not “no one,” Elohim. I look upon the deep and I would see what I would see.
6Elohim Heavenly Father: That is right, Elohim. Now, because someone sees the deep, I perceive that there is substance there which fills the expanse and the emptiness. It is matter but it has no order.
7Elohim Heavenly Mother: It is the same as the world in which We now labor except that, unto the matter with which We do Our labor, someone has given order. Therefore, the question still exists – why should the deep remain so? What ought to be done with the matter? Why should not We venture to do the same there as has been done heretofore? Or shall We remain always here to act upon another’s work?
8Elohim Heavenly Father: To act upon what has always been is not a bad work, Elohim. Indeed, it has brought Us to exaltation. In this way all spirit children do arise, line upon line and precept on precept, even unto the state and stature of their parents. This is the Everlasting Covenant. Do You think to rashly abandon that which We have learned from Our own experience?
9Elohim Heavenly Mother: I do not wish to abandon anything, Elohim. But let Us cause light and truth to expand and grow. Else, why should We be endowed with power at all?
10Elohim Heavenly Father: It is right, Elohim Heavenly Mother. Let Us leave that which We now know by virtue of another’s work and make works of Our own.
11Narrator: Then Elohim Heavenly Father and Elohim Heavenly Mother separated Themselves from each other for a season and set about the work of 10 organizing matter. Elohim Heavenly Father found the task easier than Elohim Heavenly Mother, for His endowment was to create by combining matter into organized unions. He made stars, worlds, moons, and other astral bodies. He caused all of these to coalesce into great swirling formations and clouds. He experienced all this creation first hand by placing Himself within the creation – giving of His own substance by way of pattern and form, and the deep matter willingly obeyed. Then He stood back and observed His work and pondered it.
12Narrator: Elohim Heavenly Mother found creation more difficult, for Her endowment was in becoming a wellspring of life unto matter. She caused the deep matter to recognize itself as a living soul, and taught it to seek patterns of order, and the matter did live; but, without experience, it could do nothing but ponder itself. Then She too stood back and observed Her work and pondered it.
13Elohim Heavenly Father: See, Elohim, that I have been able to cause the matter to become organized. I have made moons, worlds, and stars, such as We have heretofore seen. But the bodies have no life. Organization alone brings no real order to the matter.
14Elohim Heavenly Mother: It is so, Elohim. Look how I have given self knowledge to the deep matter and it does seek patterns of order. But the matter does only ponder itself and is confused. Life and existence alone brings no real order to the matter.
15Elohim Heavenly Father: Our work alone does not accomplish anything. Our previous work was fruitful because there was organization and life brought together by fathers and mothers. When one is without the other, the matter remains in chaos.
16Elohim Heavenly Mother: Why should We work thus alone? Why should We not combine Our work together?
17Elohim Heavenly Father: It is right, Elohim. I shall work by the endowment of My power to bring together the deep matter and organize it into all the astral bodies We have heretofore seen, and I shall consecrate all that obey Me unto the endowment of Your power.
18Elohim Heavenly Mother: I shall work by the endowment of My power to give Your organizations self knowledge and they shall become living beings capable of perception.
19Elohim Heavenly Father: I do covenant with You, Elohim, to share all My creative works with You, that the endowment of My power may be combined with the endowment of Your power.
20Elohim Heavenly Mother: I do covenant with You, Elohim, to share all My creative works with You, that the endowment of My power may also be combined with the endowment of Your power.
21Elohim Heavenly Mother: Then were Elohim Heavenly Father and Elohim Heavenly Mother bound by Their covenant one to another, and They 11 became one in heart, one in mind, and one in purpose. This is the first covenant made by our Heavenly Parents. We desire that all do likewise. All arise.
22Elohim Heavenly Mother: Each of you do solemnly covenant to share your work in this life and in the life hereafter with your own spouse. Each of you bow your head and say “Yes.”
23Elohim Heavenly Mother: It is enough. That will do. You may be seated. things of the Father and of the Mother, and all things were one.
26Elohim Heavenly Father: Elohim, behold My relations!
27Elohim Heavenly Mother: Elohim, behold My relations!
28Narrator: And They stood back and observed Their creation and saw that a portion of the deep was now filled with light and beauty in abundance, and They rejoiced in Their accomplishment. _(The participants now pause in their re-telling or re-enactment in order to receive instruction from the Peli about the nature of the covenant and bond between men and women in this creation.)_
24Narrator: Then did Elohim Heavenly Father and Elohim Heavenly Mother become truly united, essentially bringing into being living things in the deep that could both perceive and be perceived, beings that could act and be acted upon - the Father, by causing deep matter to coalesce into astral bodies such as He had theretofore seen, and the Mother, by giving the bodies life. Thus, they were bodies indeed because of the Truth bestowed by the Father, and they were bodies indeed because of the Light bestowed by the Mother.
25Narrator: The Father placed His own matter in the bodies so that all things became His. The Mother placed Her own understanding in the bodies so that all things became Hers. Therefore, were all
29Narrator: Then the Father and the Mother begot spirit children after Their own kind and They did populate Their creation and They did begin to teach them to become like unto Themselves by line and by precept. From the smallest particle to the largest astral system, the Father and the Mother taught Their children to learn and to grow by participating in the creation personally. They bestowed upon Their own children portions of Their own endowment of power, that they also might create worlds and thereby progress toward the state and stature of their Parents.
30Narrator: And when they had received these great gifts, and when they had each undertaken the work of creation, the children no longer enjoyed the presence of the Father and the Mother. For, they had all entered into the Everlasting Covenant and the matter of their creations could not abide the presence of Beings until those creations had progressed into that glory. Should any of them come into the presence of a Celestial Being before such progression had taken place, their matter would 12 disintegrate and they must begin that portion of creation again. Therefore, the Father and the Mother refrained from making Their presence known unto them, but waited upon the plan to bring them together once again. Notwithstanding, They could still observe from a distance the creations and works of Their children without disrupting them.
31Elohim Heavenly Mother: Each of you created worlds in the pre-earth life. In the creation of these worlds, you participated in every step of development.
32Elohim Heavenly Father: When the first atoms combined to form the clouds of matter from which worlds were made, each of you lived in that creation. Your matter was part of it, and it was part of you. Because of this, in the face of great faith, the atoms respond and miracles take place. They know you, for they are your relations.
33Elohim Heavenly Mother: When the first atoms combined into molecules, each of you lived in that creation. Your matter was part of it, and it was part of you. Because of this, in the face of great faith, the molecules respond and miracles take place. They know you, for they are your relations.
34Elohim Heavenly Father: When the first molecules combined into cells, each of you lived in that creation. Your matter was part of it, and it was part of you. Because of this, in the face of great faith, the cells respond and healing takes place. They know you, for they are your relations.
35Elohim Heavenly Mother: When the first cells formed into tissues, each of you lived in that creation. Your matter was part of it, and it was part of you. Because of this, in the face of great faith, the tissues respond and rejuvenation takes place. They know you, for they are your relations. In every stage and step of development – from mineral, to plant, to animal, to human being, each of you lived in that creation. And, in every advancement in development, your matter was part of it, and it was part of you - particles, and worlds without end - lives and deaths without end - joy and sorrow without end - light and darkness without end. All this because the Father gave organization to the matter of creation, and because the Mother gave thought to the organized matter. Because of this, an atom may recognize itself as well as that part of you in it. Because of this, all the matter of creation may recognize itself and that part of you in it.
36Elohim Heavenly Father: This is the continuation of the deaths and the Everlasting Covenant, for through it all things become subject unto they who transcended from the matter into the fullness of light. And ages and ages of lives of men, even eternities, are consumed in this everlasting progression. And immense is the joy, and also the suffering. Nevertheless, eternal life is finally attained in this way, line upon line, precept on precept.
37Narrator: And the Father and the Mother knew that Their work was good, for it is by this Everlasting Covenant that They attained to Their stature and to the endowment of Their power. 13
38Narrator: And Elohim Heavenly Father and Elohim Heavenly Mother were not alone in the bosom of eternity. There were others like Them, as well as Their own Spirit Children. But a time came when all Their children were occupied in making their own creation and following the path of the Universe. It was in that time that Elohim Heavenly Father and Elohim Heavenly Mother took counsel with each other:
39Elohim Heavenly Mother: It is long since I have traveled about and observed the many creations of Our children. I know that We will not be able to speak with any of them personally, lest We destroy their work because of Our own glory, but would it not be interesting to go and watch them in their labors?
40Elohim Heavenly Father: It would be interesting.
41Elohim Heavenly Mother: Perchance, We may see something different.
42Narrator: Then Elohim Heavenly Father and Elohim Heavenly Mother traveled for a long time observing the development of Their children and of the new worlds they were building. This gave Them much joy in the knowledge that each creation was one of Their children in the process of becoming like Them.
43Narrator: After a very long journey and much observation, They came to a place where They did not expect to find people (for They knew the creation, and were acquainted with the nature of things), but They were surprised and delighted to find a small group of people living next to a river. The people had built rude huts of the sticks and of the reeds that grew along the edge of the river, and they were subsisting on fish and mussels from the river and on roots and tubers from the river banks.
44Narrator: As They watched these surprising people, They saw a curious thing. Moving about among them was a Being that the people evidently could not see. From one person to another, this one darted, whispering in their ears. Then one of the men of this small family group took down his hut and moved it to higher ground. He also began gathering edible tubers and planted them extensively along the shoreline of the river and in the swampy places. As They watched, Elohim Heavenly Father and Elohim Heavenly Mother noticed that most of the people began to do the same thing. When the river flooded, only a few of the people who were left on the river bank lost their homes and belongings. This They found very curious. For, They knew that the people were developing well ahead of that rate of development They had heretofore seen.
45Narrator: On another occasion, and on another world, They observed two opposing armies readying for battle. The defiant people were all on horseback and arrayed for war, each believing themselves justified, each ready to face death to prove it. Then once again, a Shadowy Figure, visible only to Elohim Heavenly Father and Elohim Heavenly Mother, moved from the one great leader to the other, whispering something to them. 14
46Narrator: Suddenly, one of the leaders rode out into the middle of the field of battle accompanied by two of his companions. They stood there like statues until the leader of the opposing army rode out with a small party of his men. After a lengthy discussion, the stern faced warriors turned and rejoined their ranks. Then all at once the two hosts began to break up and go in opposite directions. The discipline gone and with it all need to justify their position. The conflict was over.
47Narrator: Elohim Heavenly Father and Elohim Heavenly Mother decided to follow this Shadowy Being as It moved from one project to another. It looked here and looked there and They followed It. They called the being Holy Ghost and for a long, long time They watched Him change and influence all of the men and women who would listen to His whisperings. They began to notice that it was only at crucial points of emergence that Holy Ghost intervened, and that His actions had the effect of reducing the time it took for societies to move into that point where self-mastery and discipline is attained. Not once did Holy Ghost speak to the children of the Father and the Mother while they were yet in states of development in lesser kingdoms. Never did Holy Ghost suggest to the stone that it change its position. Never did Holy Ghost suggest to the willow that it alter its course. Never did Holy Ghost whisper to the lion, the bear, the horse, or any other being other than a man or a woman. It was only in the final stages of development that Holy Ghost sought to alter the course of progression.
48Narrator: Finally, Elohim Heavenly Father and Elohim Heavenly Mother decided the time had come to make some kind of contact with Holy Ghost.
49Elohim Heavenly Father: This is a thing not seen anywhere in the Everlasting Covenant.
50Elohim Heavenly Mother: Surely, this is a new and a curious thing.
51Narrator: As They thus counseled together, They realized the impact Their discovery would have on all aspects of human existence and progress. Surely, if one knew an unknown thing could exist, could not many? The cosmos is a place of immenseness and, although such a thing might not overturn all things as they stood at that time, was this not an indication that alternatives do exist? That a thing had always been done one way no longer required that it must always be done in that way. Such a thing does not unmake the Universe, but it does remake it, in terms of the infinite possibilities and alternatives to action.
52Narrator: So, They approached Holy Ghost and spoke to Him.
53Elohim Heavenly Father: Lo, Shadowing One. We are the creators of these with whom You meddle. What are You and where do You come from?
54Holy Ghost: I greet You. I am as You see, and I am just as You, from this very place.
55Elohim Heavenly Mother: Look, Elohim, this One is intelligent. Tell Me, Shadowy One, who of Us created You and sent You? 15
56Holy Ghost: I am not made by any such as You, but I am.
57Elohim Heavenly Father: Elohim, this One is not as We are, but I perceive that He is a personage of Spirit. Observe how He does interact with Our children, yet He disrupts them not in their progress. This thing surely is new in all the world.
58Elohim Heavenly Mother: That is right, Elohim. This is a new being, indeed, and fortunate are We that we may hold concourse with Him.
59Holy Ghost: I am. Neither new, nor old am I. But My kind is many and we have always been.
60Narrator: Holy Ghost was not surprised by Elohim Heavenly Father’s and Elohim Heavenly Mother’s curiosity. He had also been curious about Them, but it was not His way to openly address anyone. His way was one of more gentle influence. But once the Three began to counsel together, Elohim Heavenly Father and Elohim Heavenly Mother realized that there was a great deal yet to be learned about the cosmos and that there was much that needed to be done about it.
61Holy Ghost: Your children have I always loved. For, of all the physical creations, they are capable of sensing My influence. I know that not all unto whom I whisper will respond. Nevertheless, I have learned that the men and women, although they are alike to the other creations in their corporality, yet they seem to posses a more refined center than their physical bodies alone. Should they be moved upon to exercise it, they do expand and grow until that center can be made to fill their whole creation. I have seen this produce such a transformation in them that they become easy to influence to do good one to another. Behold, I have made this My own work.
62Elohim Heavenly Mother: These, Our children, are striving, through almost endless toil, to become like unto Us. They are passing through their creative works utilizing a portion of the endowment of power within Us. Indeed, this is the nature of our race. We are all engaged in it until we progress to that point wherein we may command matter, of our own selves. This is Exaltation. All people like unto Us are so engaged.
63Elohim Heavenly Father: Thus has it always been unto us, even to act and to be acted upon in the body, but striving to gain that glory wherein we may act and be not acted upon only. Thus we pass from one state into another. Yea, thus we emerge into the exalted state, after worlds without end.
64Elohim Heavenly Mother: Tell Us of Yourself, Shadowy One. Who are You, and of what kind of being are You? Are You an unfinished being, like unto Our children before they begin their creative work? For, they are born in Spirit and have no ponderable matter until We loan it to them of Our creation. Thus are they placed upon the road that leads them to the acquisition of their own matter. Are You like unto them before they took upon them Our matter? 16
65Elohim Heavenly Father: Nay, Elohim, I think the body of Holy Ghost is discernible only to those of us whose spirits are bound to their bodies. Our children cannot see Him. He is, I perceive, like Us, and yet unlike.
66Holy Ghost: My people are able to act upon matter in certain ways, but we are unable to organize it or give life unto it. We can cause Your children to act upon their power to create, but we have no creative power of our own.
67Elohim Heavenly Father: You do cause Our children to learn and grow at a remarkable pace.
68Elohim Heavenly Mother: You cause them to advance in their progress. This is something different, Elohim Heavenly Father. Let Us stay with Holy Ghost and have joy in watching Our children grow.
69Holy Ghost: Why do You not do as I do?
70Elohim Heavenly Mother: We cannot interfere without great risk to the bodies of Our children. Should We interfere when they are not prepared, their bodies cannot withstand Our glory, and they disintegrate. They then must begin again and even more time is required for them to become like Us.
71Holy Ghost: The Law of Restoration is a cosmic verity. No matter whether your nature be ponderable or spiritual, that which is begun anywhere has physical consequences everywhere. It is probable that the process of progression You have described to Me originates much discord and disharmony in the cosmos. For every singularity of harmony and order, how many singularities of discord, disorder and disharmony are created as your children struggle for eons through the process of emergence?
72Elohim Heavenly Father: In consequence of the Everlasting Covenant, a great many errors are made which, eventually, lead to one singularity of truth.
73Holy Ghost: It is a way that attains the desired end. That much is proven in abundance, if only by the fact of Your own existence. But consider, You were unaware of Me and of my kind. That You knew not of Me is no commentary upon Your intelligence. It cannot be forgotten however, that I did nonetheless exist, even though You had no knowledge of Me. You speak of things that have always been thus and so. And you speak of a plan that causes much suffering. I tell You that this suffering is what caused Me to come from the place of My abode even out into the deep to ascertain the source of it. It is this suffering that I strive to relieve.
74Elohim Heavenly Father: The Everlasting Covenant is the Way of Heaven. It has always been and shall always be. If it causes much suffering, We are comforted in the knowledge that, in the end, Our children do emerge out of the suffering to become like Us.
75Holy Ghost: I am not convinced that because this Everlasting Covenant has always created vast amounts of suffering, but in the end Eternal Life, that it must 17 necessarily signify that there is no other way to attain Eternal Life.
76Elohim Heavenly Mother: What has always been is changed. What We knew to be true of a surety was true. But here is a truth We knew not of, but is also assuredly true.
77Elohim Heavenly Father: The World is a very big place.
78Holy Ghost: Let us make an experiment. I am always alert to the opportunity to meddle for good. Look at Me, Elohim Heavenly Father and Elohim Heavenly Mother, I am not corporeal in the same sense that You are. I have often, as You have Yourselves witnessed, made My sort of contact with Your children without any ill effect to their bodies.
79Elohim Heavenly Mother: Indeed no. We have witnessed the contrary. Your influence has only been for the good in all that We have observed.
80Holy Ghost: Let Me whisper what counsel You might have to whichever of Your children You might choose. Let Us observe conditions as a result of that personal interference. It may be that We can work together to fulfill the Everlasting Covenant and, at the same time, overcome some of the disorder it causes in the cosmos.
81Elohim Heavenly Father: It is well. Our Firstborn Son is very near to finishing His work already. We will take You to where He is laboring. If such interference harms Him, less of His creative work might be affected.
82Elohim Heavenly Mother: This is the World of Our Firstborn, who has progressed almost to the end of the mortal cycle. Everything in this creation will become part of Him. The very elements which We have loaned Him for a season obey His voice because He is in them, He having descended through them all. At each crucial point where evolutionary change has taken place, He has been there in the life of the entity making the change. In this way, the Creator becomes part of the Creation. It is the only way that the Natural Man may be subdued and the Spiritual Man, or Man of Holiness, arises out of corrupt matter and becomes master of it. In the final phase, the Firstborn will take on mortality one last time to overcome it. In the last of the Lives and the Deaths, He will become exalted with all of His Creation. Then shall all of this matter become His.
83Holy Ghost: Now is My understanding made clear. This does fill Me with sadness. Nay, I repent of the experiment that I first proposed. You have shown Me a hard thing. To become like You, countless many lives end miserably without hope. In all the cosmos, I have never encountered an end so good require means so bad. Do You not see that this is the very beginning of misery? In this beginning is misery made immense. For, as it proceeds out into the deep, it gathers and gains until it returns again unto its own, manifold greater. It is doubtful that what little help Our experiment might provide will prove any great difference in this constellation of pain. 18
84Holy Ghost: You have shown Me much about You and Your kind. Now, come with Me. I will show You my people.
85Narrator: Then Elohim Heavenly Father and Elohim Heavenly Mother went with Holy Ghost to the place where the Holy Ghost People dwelt. There They found an innumerable host of Holy Ghost People.
86Narrator: Now Elohim Heavenly Father and Elohim Heavenly Mother observed that these were not corporeal beings. They had no flesh and bones, as Elohim Heavenly Father and Elohim Heavenly Mother have, but were personages of spirit. Each of them had a recognizable form, but, though their presence could be discerned, their substance was not physically ponderable. They could only be seen by the spiritual eyes. Nevertheless, Elohim Heavenly Father and Elohim Heavenly Mother could feel their proximity in every particle of their tangible bodies.
87Narrator: They remained with the Holy Ghost People for a long, long time, for they were fascinating and complex beings. They discovered that each had the ability to enter into very close association with matter, even dwell within and around the ponderable matter of corporeal beings. Thus, their presence could be discerned by the very matter itself. In this way, Holy Ghost was able to be such a great influence in the progress and development of the children of Elohim Heavenly Father and Elohim Heavenly Mother. Nevertheless, they were unable to command matter and take on physicality themselves.
88Narrator: Because of this close association, many of the Holy Ghost People grew to love Elohim Heavenly Father and Elohim Heavenly Mother, and some began to desire to experience physicality.
89Holy Ghost Elders: Elohim Heavenly Father, we would that You might take of matter and make a physical world wherein we might experience physicality.
90Elohim Heavenly Father: I shall take of the matter of the Deep and make a world wherein you may dwell for a season. I shall put in this world all manner of life and command it to fulfill the measure of its creation. This is all part of the world which Elohim Heavenly Mother and I did create in the beginning. I give it unto you for your own experience. Yea, I shall cause the elements of this new world to allow the Holy Ghost People to enter into the bodies and dwell therein for a time.
91Elohim Heavenly Father: Look, Elohim, at what We may learn from the Holy Ghost People in this way.
92Elohim Heavenly Mother: Yes, We do learn intimately of them. I perceive all there is to know of the individual when one of the Holy Ghost People enters into one of Our creations. All that they are becomes part of Me through that matter which obeys My will. All that they are becomes part of You through that matter which obeys Your will. 19
93Elohim Heavenly Father: That is correct. A great measure of the past, as well as the present experiences of that person are imprinted upon the matter of the corporeal body which We have loaned unto him. Since that matter belongs to Us, all these experiences become Ours also.
94Elohim Heavenly Mother: Through this association, Elohim, We are greatly enlarged, having gained many of the experiences of countless finished and complete beings who have lived perhaps even longer than We have.
95Elohim Heavenly Father: The Holy Ghost People are also enlarged by the experience of corporality, for they take upon themselves experience that can only be obtained through the body. They also gain a measure of Our experience by that same imprinting whereby We gain a measure of their experiences. All are greatly enlarged.
96Elohim Heavenly Mother: This is a good thing, and yet I am troubled in My heart.
97Elohim Heavenly Father: It is true. I, too, am troubled. This thing must cause Us to pause and to ponder the Everlasting Covenant and all that it entails. I feel the suffering and disharmony that the covenant causes in the Cosmos.
98Elohim Heavenly Mother: Surely, the lives and deaths of Our children, as they labor through the almost endless process of exaltation, causes immeasurable disharmony and even destruction throughout the cosmos because of the Universal Law of Restoration. The Holy Ghost People felt this disharmony and sent Holy Ghost to investigate it. What one sets loose upon the cosmos, be it even the smallest thing, for good or for ill, traverses the Universe and is amplified by it so that it returns to its origin magnified for good or evil. This is a Universal Law.
99Narrator: The Holy Ghost People who participated in the world Elohim Heavenly Father made for them also gained from Him an understanding of the Everlasting Covenant and of the manner in which the children of Elohim become exalted. They became more aware of the suffering caused by the plan. After that fewer and fewer of the Holy Ghost People came to participate with Elohim Heavenly Father in the world He had created for them and His heart was downcast. The elders of the Holy Ghost People dissuaded their people from it.
100Elohim Heavenly Father: I have pondered the Everlasting Covenant. Holy Ghost is right. The process of exaltation for Our children’s sake brings about great suffering.
101Elohim Heavenly Mother: It is evidently true. To bring about the transition of man from spirit to Exalted Being, from natural to spiritual man, causes the creation of evil and pain. Opposition must be overcome so that transition may be made. It is the way it has always been.
102Elohim Heavenly Father: Yes, You are right. But, We must ask again, does it follow that because a thing has always been, that it is the only true way that it can be? We have found things in the 20 cosmos that We never knew existed. This contrasts with what has always been. The Holy Ghost People have taught Us this. Because Holy Ghost brought Us to meet His people, and they have experimented upon physicality through us, I see the way to a New and Everlasting Covenant. I see a way to bring about the immortality and eternal life of man without the creation of endless torment in the cosmos.
103Elohim Heavenly Mother: What is it that You propose, Elohim?
104Elohim Heavenly Father: The endowment of power that We have attained – to organize matter and to give it life and perception may be combined with Holy Ghost’s ability to influence the actions and development of Our children without disturbing their bodies. When We allowed some of the Holy Ghost People to occupy the bodies We created for them, a measure of our experiences was added unto theirs. All that we know has been imprinted upon them, worlds without end. All that they know has been imprinted upon us, lives without end. Do you begin to see the endowment of power of the Holy Ghost People?
105Elohim Heavenly Mother: I do see it. Let Us speak to Holy Ghost and see if He will not covenant with Us to assist Our children.
106Elohim Heavenly Father: Holy Ghost, I have learned that when You whispered into the ears of My children Your influence was imprinted upon the very matter of their bodies. They do not so much hear the whisperings but the influence became part of their being, felt in every fiber, undeniable.
107Holy Ghost: That is true.
108Elohim Heavenly Father: I have also learned that My own life’s experience, everything I learned through the Everlasting Covenant, was imprinted upon the souls of the Holy Ghost People who participated with Me in the world I created for them.
109Holy Ghost: That is also true. Though we may not be creators without corporality, yet the light and truth which motivates each individual was added to that provided by the Creator. The Holy Ghost People gained experience thereby which they could never have expected to gain. Because the elements are part of their Creator and obey His will, those Holy Ghost People who participated in the experiment with You gained some insight into the relationship You have with Your children. They have learned to desire the ability to create. It is because of this that the Elders of the Holy Ghost People begin to dissuade many from participating in the world You created for them.
110Elohim Heavenly Father: It is not well. For I love all of the Holy Ghost People and despair that I might have caused them grief. The desire to create without the ability will bring hardship and sadness to the Holy Ghost People.
111Holy Ghost: You speak the truth. Now those who became part of Your creation, as well as those who still wish to, are sundered from the rest of the Holy Ghost People. Some only desire to 21 experience physicality. These would not shun participating in what might be learned in Your creation, but they are satisfied to remain as they are. Others desire to become like You. They are no longer satisfied, as I am, to be the complete being which they already are. They wish to become Your children. Thus, my people are divided into three groups; those who are satisfied with who they are, those who want to experience physicality but desire to remain incorporeal, and those who wish to become Your children. All may be satisfied, if You wish it.
112Elohim Heavenly Father: Tell Us how it might be accomplished.
113Holy Ghost: One who has finished the Everlasting Covenant may do it. Then, having completed the work, if that One were to receive Me prior to the ending of one last creation, I would receive all the experience necessary for Your children to overcome the natural man. Then, unto those of Your children who receive Me, I will imprint that knowledge in the same way Your experiences were imprinted upon My people who participated with You in the world You created for them. Let a covenant be made between Us such that every person who receives that Chosen One and the Holy Ghost might through this atonement be made perfect like You through the transference of experience like that which You have seen take place in the world You created for the Holy Ghost People. But, the Chosen One must allow this transference to take place before that last death. Then, because of this great gift, it may be possible for many of Your children to attain to Your stature in but one lifetime. But One so chosen must make the sacrifice freely. It is the only way that all of the experiences may be brought together.
114Elohim Heavenly Father: This is the thing about which We desired to take counsel with You, Holy Ghost.
115Elohim Heavenly Mother: If this thing were possible, it would prevent eternities of suffering.
116Holy Ghost: There are many of my People who wish to become like You. You have given them a taste of a new way and they see dimly a new path. I will be for Your children an Holy Ghost. Be You for My people who wish it a Creator, even a Father and Mother.
117Elohim Heavenly Mother: We cannot. Once exaltation has been attained, the exalted one may never die again.
118Elohim Heavenly Father: That is right, Elohim. We will present this New and Everlasting Covenant to all of Our children and, if they choose this plan, We will appoint one from among them to be their Savior and Redeemer.
119Narrator: Then did Elohim Heavenly Father and Elohim Heavenly Mother and Holy Ghost summon all the people together into one Great Council. And this interference suspended all the progress each of the sons and daughters of God had made in the life in which they were laboring when they were summoned. Elohim Heavenly Father and Elohim Heavenly Mother called all of 22 Their children out of their creations, and Holy Ghost called all of the Holy Ghost People from their place of habitation, and then Elohim Heavenly Father presented the Plan to them.
120Elohim Heavenly Father: Behold, you are all aware that the Everlasting Covenant requires that Our children must pass through all things living and gain an understanding of all things before you may attain to that endowment of power which makes of the matter that We have loaned unto you your own substance to command as you will. This is exaltation, and We do desire all of Our children to attain to it. We have become aware also that, because in order to do this, you must experience both the life, joy and happiness, but also the death, pain and suffering of each of those lives, in accordance with the Universal Law of Restoration, the suffering created by Everlasting Covenant does move outward into the deep and is magnified by that movement. When it reaches other beings, it is greater than when you experience it in your creative work, causing others to experience disharmony and commotion.
121Elohim Heavenly Father: This commotion has reached a people of whom we knew not, a people who are not corporeal as we are, a people of spirit. We have learned from them a new plan whereby you may gain all of the experience needed to attain to exaltation, without causing universal suffering and strife. We will call this plan the New and Everlasting Covenant. This covenant requires that one of you, who is near unto completing the Telestial cycle, shall take upon you the combined experience of all of Our children who wish to participate and that you take upon you one more life in the Telestial sphere. Before you give up this last life, you must render unto the Holy Ghost the combined experience of your creative work, as well as all that which you have taken up from Our children. You must be left entirely alone and return again even to the beginning of your work for a moment. Then the Holy Ghost will once again reveal all things to your remembrance and you will attain to that exaltation to which you would have ascended. You must do this of your own free will, without any compulsion at all.
122Elohim Heavenly Father: There are those of the Holy Ghost People who wish to participate in this covenant and thereby gain the experiences that can only be attained through corporality. I will command the elements to accept these into the bodies that are created, except those of men and women. There are those who wish to become Our children and gain exaltation. I will adopt them into Our family and they will have the same opportunity as Our true children.
123Narrator: The Holy Ghost People then separated themselves and held Council together. Some of them wanted to become like Elohim Heavenly Father and Elohim Heavenly Mother. Others were satisfied with who they were and only wished to experience physicality. Still others were satisfied to remain as they are. Holy Ghost went back to Elohim Heavenly Father and Elohim Heavenly Mother to counsel with Them and told Them of the wishes of His people. 23
124Elohim Heavenly Mother: The Spirit of the Creator is the very energy through which corporeal elements are organized. Let those of the Holy Ghost People who wish only to experience physicality submit their wills to the will of the Creator. There are many physical bodies in the Creation.
125Elohim Heavenly Father: This is well. They must submit only to the will of the Creator. Their bodies will be quickened by the Spirit of the Creator. They will gain in experience but that experience is not sufficient to make them like Us. For those who wish to progress and become a new thing in the cosmos, I shall become their Father and they shall be numbered among My children. And if it so be that their spirit is able to expand and grow so that the natural man may begin to be overcome, even as Our own children do begin to overcome the natural man, then We will judge them worthy, and through the power of the Holy Ghost they shall receive all things pertaining to exaltation. But if their spirit is not able to expand, then they shall return unto that manner of being that they are now.
126Narrator: Then Holy Ghost returned to His own people and, when He had repeated to them all the counsel of Elohim Heavenly Father and Elohim Heavenly Mother, they rejoiced, for the covenant was a miracle to them. _Elohim Heavenly Father and Elohim Heavenly Mother council together, Lucifer rebels against them, Jehovah, the Firstborn, is chosen as Savior._
127Narrator: And all the children of Elohim Heavenly Father and Elohim Heavenly Mother were assembled into the Great Council. Now some had just begun their labors and others were very much under way. Some few were very near to finishing, but there were few indeed who had but one life left to live. One of these was the Firstborn of Elohim Heavenly Father and Elohim Heavenly Mother and he was mighty indeed.
128Elohim Heavenly Father: My children. You have heard the plan which We propose, that each of you shall take of your creations and consecrate it unto a New and Everlasting Covenant. This shall greatly foreshorten the time your labors will take to accomplish and it will do away with eternities of suffering. This is according to the Universal Law of Restoration. This new thing will bring the necessary experience together for all to receive exaltation in as little as one life more.
129Elohim Heavenly Mother: It is true. In this New and Everlasting Covenant, all of the creative experience can be drawn together into one life. Every individual, through the organizational power of the Creator, the instrumentality of the Chosen One, and the peculiar power of the Holy Ghost, and through the atonement of the lives, can attain the Celestial Glory – even that glory possessed by Us, your Heavenly Parents.
130Elohim Heavenly Father: Each of you must subdue your own desire for eminence for one lifetime and set self aside, submitting to the will of Elohim Heavenly Father, Elohim Heavenly Mother, the Chosen One and the Holy 24 Ghost. Each of you must give up all that you have already created and become as one just starting out, a little child at the beginning of the long and arduous labors. Nevertheless, though you shall be as one only just embarking on the journey, because of the New and Everlasting Covenant, you may be blessed with all that I and your Mother in Heaven have.
131Elohim Heavenly Mother: One of you will be required to take upon you all of the consecrated experience and descend to the very beginning, to condescend to give up all that you have already accomplished, to accept the aggregate of all the creative experiences into one, and then to sacrifice it all for the good of all. The result of this consecration, sacrifice and atonement will bring about a new thing in the cosmos, a new order, a New and Everlasting Covenant. Through it, all who are willing will become like Us, even Your Heavenly Parents.
132Holy Ghost: Therefore now are my people become one part of the Hosts of Heaven who rejoice and do consecrate to the work. For even the Elders of my people see that the intentions of Elohim Heavenly Father and Elohim Heavenly Mother are good. And see! The greater portion of the children of Elohim Heavenly Father and Elohim Heavenly Mother also rejoice, and they became a second part of the Hosts of Heaven and they consecrate to the work.
133Narrator: But there was a lesser portion of the children of Elohim Heavenly Father and Elohim Heavenly Mother, and among this third part was one who wished to attain the Celestial Glory without subduing his own will to that of any other. And some few joined with him and were of like mind. They counseled against the New and Everlasting Covenant. He was one like unto the Firstborn of Elohim, having nearly completed his work and was known to all as a child of light, even Lucifer.
134Lucifer: If the Holy Ghost People wish to become like us, let Holy Ghost perform His function as a gift. We need not submit to anyone. Let our Father use His power with the Holy Ghost people, as He has heretofore done, and then let this Holy Ghost imprint the aggregate upon us. Let Holy Ghost write this glory upon me. If the Everlasting Covenant is to be discarded, then let the glory of the Father be imprinted upon me and be it thus for all people, or let us withhold ponderable matter from these lesser beings.
135Narrator: Then the Firstborn of Elohim Heavenly Father and Elohim Heavenly Mother came forward.
136Jehovah: Nay, let it be as Elohim Heavenly Father and Elohim Heavenly Mother wish it. For, we do nothing but what we receive of Them. Even our own creative works and experiences depend upon that portion of Their endowment of power that They may loan unto us for that purpose. Therefore, let us be grateful unto Them and have joy in the new thing that we shall bring to pass because of Them. 25
137Narrator: And He was chosen to be the Creator and Savior for the Hosts of Heaven.
138Narrator: Then Lucifer rebelled against the Hosts of Heaven and Elohim Heavenly Father Himself and vowed to frustrate the work, and to force the Hosts to return to what had always been. And then was Elohim Heavenly Mother grieved by the wickedness of Her child, for She knew that he might not ever be able to subdue self-will enough to gain exaltation in either the Everlasting or the New and Everlasting Covenant. This grief was added upon as She reflected upon the third part of the Host of Heaven who had been drawn away by the rebellion of Lucifer. So great was Her grief in the knowledge of the great suffering his rebellion would cause that She withdrew from the Council and seldom would return to it. From that time Elohim Heavenly Mother only met in council with those who would be mothers in order to give them that power which men never have and to ordain them to the fullness of the priesthood. _Elohim Heavenly Father, Elohim Heavenly Mother, Jehovah, and Michael create the earth._
139Narrator: Then did Michael stand forward and speak for the Hosts of Heaven.
140Michael: Lucifer has rebelled against You. He has not simply disagreed in Council, which would have been his right, but he has vowed in his arrogance and jealousy to destroy the atonement of the lives, and to draw as many back unto their own as he can. Therefore, Elohim Heavenly Father, withhold from him and to all those who follow him, the power to organize matter, lest they do something to our great hurt. And surely You can do it, for You are our Father and we must make our way within Your creation. Wherefore, all matter that pertains to us obeys Your will, being Yours. Withhold it from them who would destroy your work.
141Elohim Heavenly Father: You are a mighty man and valiant and I call your name, Michael. But Lucifer may easily leave My creation and seek some other part of the cosmos. Howbeit, he may find someone who will give him the power to create. It is better that we strive with Lucifer here in our own vineyard, if only to prevent his taking his rebellion away. I shall send you, therefore, to do battle with him. You shall subdue him and the elements will obey you and forsake him. Then shall he be restrained here with us. Yea, we shall restrain him here with us for a season.
142Elohim Heavenly Father: The rebellion of Lucifer will provide opposition upon which faith may take form. Go therefore, my Chosen One, whom I call Jehovah, take Michael and all those who wish to take part in the New and Everlasting Covenant, and the power of creation will be with you. Take of ponderable matter, yea, matter upon which both I and Elohim Heavenly Mother have worked in Our endowment of power, and make a world as has been done so many times before. Subdue Lucifer and consign him to that world. Then I will command the matter around that world and limit it so that one may go 26 to and from it only by the peculiar power of the Holy Ghost upon the Way. I will seal this section of My creation so that none may travel to and from it unless they be sealed up unto Jehovah by the peculiar power of the Holy Ghost. Lucifer desired power without cost and cause without effect. Now let Us use Lucifer to test My children.
143Jehovah: Elohim, we will go down and do as You say.
144Michael: It will be a good world and the good will overcome the evil of Lucifer.
145Elohim Heavenly Father: Look! There is matter unorganized. Go you down and create a world such as we have heretofore created. Divide the night from the day and bring Me word.
146Jehovah: We will go down.
147Michael: We will go down.
148Narrator: Then all the true Sons and Daughters of Elohim Heavenly Father and Elohim Heavenly Mother, who had not rebelled and followed Lucifer, submitted their own will to the Father and consecrated with a covenant all that they had made and learned in the Everlasting Covenant unto the Son. These are they for whom Michael speaks. Each of you made this great sacrifice, consecrating all that you had received through the endowment of power of the Father and of the Mother, and of the matter given you, from the beginning even unto the moment you made the covenant. And the Holy Ghost took the accumulated experience and caused it to be given unto Jehovah.
149Narrator: Then Elohim Heavenly Father endowed Jehovah with His own power and Jehovah, Michael, and all the True Sons and Daughters of Elohim Heavenly Father and Elohim Heavenly Mother went out into the creation of Elohim, and the Father commanded it to obey the voice of Jehovah, and they made a world.
150Jehovah: Michael, here is matter that the Father and the Mother have brought together for our use. The Father organized it and the Mother gave it life, but it is yet unused and unorganized according to that organization we have heretofore seen. Let us make a world of this matter such as the worlds we have heretofore created. We shall divide the light from the darkness. The light we shall call day and the dark we shall call night. Then we shall return and report our labors.
152Narrator: Then the dust of creation gathered and suns and planets and moons and other astral bodies formed. And the light was divided from the darkness, for the bodies that formed could discern themselves from the deep. And the morning and the evening were the first measured time, for the morning and the evening marked the passing of the first day of creation.
153Jehovah: Look, Michael! We have made a world like unto the worlds we have heretofore created. There are suns, planets, moons and all manner of astral 27 bodies. Matter is organized and the light shines in the deep. The light we shall call day and the darkness we shall call night. Let us return and report.
155Jehovah: Elohim, we have been down as You commanded and formed a world like the worlds we have heretofore created. There are suns, planets, moons and all matter of astral bodies. We have divided the light from the darkness even as You commanded us to do. This is our report.
156Elohim Heavenly Father: It is well. Go down to the world we have created and cause astral bodies to be organized in systems and to have order. Set the Sun to rule the day and the Moon and other lesser lights to rule the night. Divide the waters from the waters. Cause the mists to rise up and form the first firmament. Cause the dry land to appear and the great waters to gather. Make rivers and small streams, valleys and mountains, and the lakes to appear, to give variety and beautify the Earth. Then return and report.
157Jehovah: We will go down and do all that You command, Elohim.
159Jehovah: Michael, we will cause these planets to gather around this star which we will call the Sun, and we shall also do likewise with all the astral bodies found in the world we have created. The Sun shall rule the day for the planets that belong to them and shall also be stars for the planets which belong to others. We will cause many of these planets to have moons. The Moon and the Stars shall rule the night.
160Jehovah: We will cause the waters from above to divide themselves from the waters from below so that there may be a firmament of air between the Earth that we have made and the Firmament of Heaven wherein the Sun, Moon, and Stars dwell. We shall cause the dry land to appear and the waters to flow. We shall make great rivers and small streams, lakes and seas. We shall cause mountains, hills and valleys to form to beautify and give variety to the earth. Then we shall return and report our labors to Elohim Heavenly Father.
162Narrator: Then, the matter that had formed into a world, and had gathered together into stars, planets, moons, and other astral bodies were gathered together into systems and they had order in their creation. And as the dust of creation settled, the sun shown through and the heat of the sun caused the mists to rise up and a firmament was made between the earth and the heavens. As the waters of the earth divided from the waters of the air, dry land appeared and the great oceans formed. Great rivers and small streams began to flow from the earth into the seas. As the waters rolled forth upon the land, valleys formed and the Moon caused changes within the earth that raised up the mountains. The waters deposited soil in layers upon layers and many forms of topography were made that beautified and gave 28 variety to the earth. And the morning and the evening were the second measured time, for the morning and the evening marked the passing of the second day.
163Jehovah: Look, Michael! The commotion of creation has settled so that the light of the Sun may penetrate to the Earth. And the energy of the Sun has moved upon the Earth and the waters have divided themselves, as we have devised, to form a firmament of air between the Heavens, and the waters that cover the earth. And this division has caused the dry land to appear and the streams to flow and valleys, plains and prairies to be created. Lakes and seas have appeared. And the pull of the Moon has caused great changes to take place within the Earth and hills and mountains have risen up. Already the Earth is a place of beauty and majesty.
164Michael: It is so Jehovah, it is so.
165Jehovah: Let us return and report.
166Michael: We will return and report our labors of the second day, Jehovah.
167Jehovah: Elohim, we have been down to the new world You commanded us to make. We have set the astral bodies in their order and have caused the waters to divide themselves and the dry land to appear. Now there are great rivers and small steams, lakes and seas, hills and valleys and mountains. All this we have done according to Your command.
168Elohim Heavenly Father: It is well. Jehovah, go down to the new world we have created. Plant seeds of every kind in the waters and in the land, and command
169Jehovah: We will go down and do as You command, Elohim.
171Jehovah: Michael, let us place seeds in the waters that they may grow and multiply after their own kind. And let us plant seeds in the earth that they also may grow and multiply in accordance with the power in them of the Father to bring together and organize the matter of creation, and also according to the power in them of the Mother that quickens the matter and gives it life. This they shall do each after the manner of their own kind. Let us command them all to multiply in their own sphere that they might have joy in their creation.
172Michael: We shall do all these things, Jehovah.
173Narrator: Then did the plants begin to grow in the waters and they breathed out into the first firmament and the air changed because of them. Then did the plants also grow upon the dry earth and all the land began also to change. And the morning and the evening were the third measured time, for the morning and the evening marked the passing of the third day.
174Jehovah: Look, Michael! The seeds that we have planted in the waters and in the earth sprout and prosper. Let us return and report our labors.
175Michael: We will return and report, Jehovah. 29
176Jehovah: Elohim, we have gone down unto the new world and have placed seeds of every kind in the waters and in the earth. We have commanded them to grow and multiply in their own sphere, that they might have joy in their creation.
177Elohim Heavenly Father: It is well. Jehovah, go down to the new world that we have created and place water creatures of every kind in the waters. Place animals of every kind to walk upon the earth and flying creatures of every kind to fly amid the winds. Command them to multiply in their own sphere and have joy in their creation. Then return and bring Me word.
178Jehovah: We will go and do all that You command, Elohim Heavenly Father. Come, Michael, let us go down.
180Jehovah: Michael, we will place water creatures of every kind in the waters that they may ply the waves. We will place animals of every kind that they may walk to and fro upon the earth, and we will place flying creatures also, that they may fly amid the winds. We will command them to bring together and organize the matter of creation according to the power given them of the Father, and also according to the power given them of the Mother that quickens and brings life to the matter. This they shall do in the manner of their own kind and in their own sphere that they might have joy in their creation. Then we will return and report.
182Narrator: Then the water creatures appeared – the great whales, the fish and all manner of creatures that live in the water - and they prospered in the seas, in the lakes, in the rivers and in the streams. Animals of all kinds began to walk to and fro upon the Earth – the elephant, the horse, the lion, the tiger, the bear and all manner of animals that walk upon the Earth. And flying creatures did begin to fly amid the winds – the eagle, the swan, the sparrow and all manner of birds and flying creatures. And the morning and the evening were the fourth measured time, for the morning and the evening marked the passing of the fourth day.
183Michael: Look, Jehovah! There are water creatures of every kind in the waters, animals of every kind upon the land, and flying creatures of every kind in the skies. They begin to multiply and prosper.
184Jehovah: There are, Michael. Let us return and report.
185Michael: We will return and report our labors of the fourth day, Jehovah.
186Jehovah: Elohim, we have gone down to the new world and done all that You commanded us to do.
187Elohim Heavenly Father: It is well. Jehovah, take Michael and go down again to the world we have created. Command all the Spirits of the Holy Ghost People who wish to participate in this New and Everlasting Covenant to possess for a season the bodies we have created. Surely they shall quicken all things, and all things shall have their spirit. And behold, we shall prove them 30 herewith, whether they will be obedient to the commandments We shall give them. If they do, then shall they receive the true intents of their hearts. Take also all My children who did not rebel against Us and make war upon Lucifer and his followers. Subdue him and all of my children who follow him and consign them for a season to the planet upon which You will finish Your own work. I will cause the elements to obey the voice of faith so that Lucifer and his followers may witness this New and Everlasting Covenant, but have no part in it. In this, they may see and understand. When We are finished with Our work, they shall be released unto that glory they would abide from the beginning. Yea, they shall return unto their own even according to My word. Go down and accomplish these things, then return and bring Me word.
188Jehovah: It shall be done, Elohim.
189Michael: We will go down, Elohim.
190Jehovah: Michael, we will command now the Spirits of the Holy Ghost People to come down from their habitation and dwell in the corporeal bodies we have created. Behold, this is not as in the worlds we have heretofore created, for it is a new thing. But, through the endowment of power of the Father and the Mother, they shall have joy in their creation.
191Michael: It shall be done, Jehovah.
192Narrator: The Spirits of the Holy Ghost People possess the bodies of the astral bodies, as well as the plants, animals, and other mundane bodies in
193Jehovah: Michael, we will now contend against Lucifer and the third part of the Host of Heaven that follow after him. Take all the children of our Heavenly Parents and lead them against our common enemy. Behold, the Father has commanded the elements that they will obey us and not Lucifer. Therefore, go now and consign him to the earth we have created. Yea, they shall remain to observe and witness the great plan of our Father before they may be permitted to return unto their own, even outer darkness.
194Michael: It shall be done, Jehovah. _Michael and the Hosts of Heaven battle Lucifer and his hosts, Lucifer and his followers are cast out of Heaven to the earth_
195Narrator: Then there was a great conflict in Heaven and Michael commanded the children of the Father and the Mother against Lucifer and his people, and Michael prevailed. Yea, then there was a contention in the heavens and Michael prevailed against Lucifer and cast him down into the Earth which the Council had made. Elohim commanded the elements and they obeyed. From that time, Lucifer and his people have been restrained to the Earth, a physical world within the world, worlds without end, and being without form and void, they have been miserable seekers of evil ever since. Only through those who have ponderable matter can Lucifer and his people accomplish their rebellious design. Lucifer was cast out of the 31 Heavens and made his habitation, with all of his people, in the Earth. He ruled over his people and was chief among them, and they moved freely upon the face of earth. _Elohim Heavenly Father, Elohim Heavenly Mother, Jehovah, and Michael continue to create the earth, Michael as spirit is placed into his body as Adam, the First Man._
196Narrator: And the morning and the evening were the fifth measured time, for the morning and the evening marked the passing of the fifth day.
197Jehovah: Michael, we have done all that the Father has commanded.
198Michael: Yes, Jehovah. Now that there are mountains, hills and valleys, rivers, streams, lakes and seas and also now that the waters, earth and skies are filled with creatures of all kinds, multiplying in their own spheres and now that the living things have within them the Spirits of the Holy Ghost People and also now that Lucifer is bound, the earth is glorious and beautiful.
199Jehovah: It is, Michael. Let us return and report.
200Michael: We will return and report our labors of the fifth day, Jehovah.
201Jehovah: Elohim, a new World has been created, and we have populated it with worlds of its own order. There are plants of all kinds and animals of all kinds upon the Earth, and the Spirits of the Holy Ghost People possess the bodies of all living things for a stewardship, worlds without end. Lucifer is bound to the Earth that we have created and cannot leave it. We have done all that you have commanded us. This is our report.
202Elohim Heavenly Father: It is well. Jehovah. Is man found on the Earth?
203Jehovah: Man is not found on the Earth.
204Elohim Heavenly Father: Elohim, Jehovah, We will go down and We will take of the matter that We have organized and We will form a body like unto Our own body. And We will put into this body the Spirit of Michael. And man shall become a living soul.
205Jehovah: We will go down, Elohim.
206Elohim Heavenly Father: Look, Jehovah! This is the Earth, even the world where You will finish Your own work, the work that will bring together all the work of My children into one. It is also the place where you have consigned the spirits of my children who followed Lucifer. We will take now out of the stuff of this earth, the same which has been endowed with some of My power and also of the power of the Mother, and fashion a body like unto the body which You see that I have. Make it of ponderable matter. We shall give the body a head and in it place the seat of understanding. We shall give the body a neck to join it to the head. We shall give the body a left side with arm, torso and leg. We shall give the body a right side with arm, torso and leg. In all ways, We shall make the body of the man like unto the pattern of My body as You know it to be. Let its organs mirror My organs, only we shall make that which is vital to the 32 life of the body in this creation be in accordance with the matter of the world. We shall do all this, in accordance with the last of the creations which You were about to make, even that final creation that would have caused You to become alike unto Us. This shall be the body of man and it will be for his good that he receive it.
207Narrator: Then Jehovah took of the clay and made a body for Man. But, because Michael had been so valiant in defending the right of choice when Lucifer rebelled against the New and Everlasting Covenant, Elohim and Jehovah gathered and commanded more particularly that part of the creative matter that Michael had consecrated and this constituted the more part of the body of First Man. And Elohim breathed in him the Breath of Life, or in other words, the body, having been organized according to the Power of the Father, was quickened according to the Power of the Mother, and Michael did possess the body as his own.
208Narrator: Then Elohim Heavenly Mother came once again to speak to the Council.
209Elohim Heavenly Mother: The cosmos is about to change forever. We have learned that all things are not static, that the cosmos must progress, and when it does, that which We knew to be true does cease to be for Us. In the past our people followed a path that created much evil and suffering for the sake of just a little good, and in the orthodoxy of our own self-interest we were for an unfathomable period of time, entirely insensible of other people that are like us, yet not like us. Let this be instructive to us all. When we become orthodox, let us seek for alternatives.
210Elohim Heavenly Father: This is right, Elohim Heavenly Mother. Lucifer was not wrong in his desire to remain in the Everlasting Covenant, for that was his right. His error was in trying to take away the freedom to choose from our children, and in trying to enslave the Holy Ghost People. Let all choose the way they wish to follow. Should Our children choose the New and Everlasting Covenant, let the Holy Ghost imprint upon the very matter of their soul the continuation of the lives. Should they choose the Everlasting Covenant, we will allow them to return to that labor with all those that follow Lucifer after Our work is finished.
211Narrator: Then Elohim Heavenly Father and Elohim Heavenly Mother spoke to the Man.
212Elohim Heavenly Mother: Adam, you are a living soul.
213Elohim Heavenly Father: Adam, awake and arise.
