00:00:00.680 --> 00:00:05.280
Hi everyone, and welcome to this
episode of The Secret Teachings of Jesus Christ.

2
00:00:06.040 --> 00:00:08.880
And you know, as you know, he is the reason for the

3
00:00:08.919 --> 00:00:13.320
season. It's Christmas season, and
this is the last podcast that we're going

4
00:00:13.400 --> 00:00:19.160
to do before Christmas, So the
next time you'll be hearing from me will

5
00:00:19.160 --> 00:00:23.440
be after Christmas. And I'm not
going to do a whole new program.

6
00:00:23.519 --> 00:00:28.079
I've just done a I've just done
a recording. Or actually, no,

7
00:00:28.160 --> 00:00:31.120
it wasn't a recording. It was. I mean, it's it is recorded,

8
00:00:31.399 --> 00:00:37.039
but it's actually it was a live
broadcast on the Bread of Life programs.

9
00:00:37.079 --> 00:00:43.200
So I'm not going to do another
whole hour here. I'm just going

10
00:00:43.240 --> 00:00:49.000
to use that because it's really for
the season. It's my Christmas, my

11
00:00:49.159 --> 00:00:55.439
Christmas broadcast for the year, and
I just love you. If you've already

12
00:00:56.079 --> 00:01:00.439
listened to Water into Wine, which
we do on the Bread of Life program,

13
00:01:02.000 --> 00:01:04.560
then you know you don't really need
to listen to this again because I'm

14
00:01:04.640 --> 00:01:11.760
repeating that program. So I'm just
putting this little intro for my Secret teaching

15
00:01:11.879 --> 00:01:17.560
guys. Oh, which reminds me. We got a letter last week from

16
00:01:17.719 --> 00:01:23.439
Dale. Hi. Dale, I'm
really glad that you listen to the program

17
00:01:23.519 --> 00:01:27.560
and not getting so much out of
it. It's true, it's the word

18
00:01:27.599 --> 00:01:33.760
of God. You know that God
is in everything you see. The only

19
00:01:33.840 --> 00:01:38.680
reason that we get together is of
course to remember God. And you know

20
00:01:38.239 --> 00:01:44.480
what a better time than Christmas time
to remember that. Christmas is all about

21
00:01:44.519 --> 00:01:49.040
you. Really, Christmas is about
the birth of Christ in you. It's

22
00:01:49.159 --> 00:01:53.480
really your own rebirth, so to
speak. It's your real wakening. You

23
00:01:53.480 --> 00:01:57.719
know, as Jesus says in the
Course of Miracles, the journey to God

24
00:01:59.400 --> 00:02:05.640
is me the reawakening of the knowledge
of where you are always and what you

25
00:02:05.879 --> 00:02:12.240
are forever. It's a journey without
distance to a goal that has never changed.

26
00:02:13.080 --> 00:02:19.159
Right here, right now, what
we really are tasked with doing is

27
00:02:19.280 --> 00:02:27.639
experiencing God, experiencing our own Christhood, knowing that that birth, that rebirth

28
00:02:28.080 --> 00:02:34.560
is occurring in us. Christmas is
the sign of peace. It's the sign

29
00:02:35.080 --> 00:02:38.039
that the light has come. But
you are the light of the world,

30
00:02:38.680 --> 00:02:46.560
and so we seize the opportunity of
Christmas to remember to be the light and

31
00:02:46.639 --> 00:02:52.919
to experience everything that goes with it, which is of course far beyond anything

32
00:02:52.960 --> 00:02:57.759
that words can ever describe. So
I read a couple of lessons, I

33
00:02:57.800 --> 00:03:02.360
read a couple of prayers and and
I just really want to share this moment

34
00:03:02.520 --> 00:03:07.240
with you. I'm being to share
that again. So Dale, you were

35
00:03:07.280 --> 00:03:12.479
asking about me, my name is
Jubi. You can always write to me

36
00:03:12.599 --> 00:03:19.199
directly. You can write to me
at Jubi at acimi dot com, jub

37
00:03:19.360 --> 00:03:24.960
at acimi dot com. And of
course I played the beautiful music of Mitch

38
00:03:25.879 --> 00:03:30.319
and I will playing you. I
mean, get ready for a treat because

39
00:03:30.879 --> 00:03:36.879
most of the carols that we're going
to be playing are carols that Mitch and

40
00:03:37.120 --> 00:03:40.240
John put together for me last year. I just said to Mitch, Mitch,

41
00:03:40.319 --> 00:03:46.280
please sing me some carols that I
can use for my program on the

42
00:03:46.400 --> 00:03:51.319
radio, and he did. So
we're going to use this carols again this

43
00:03:51.439 --> 00:03:57.599
year. And oh my God,
just pure love, pure beauty. See,

44
00:03:57.639 --> 00:04:03.240
Mitch is really he's not just reciting
Christmas carols. He is singing the

45
00:04:03.360 --> 00:04:09.400
truth to you, and it's the
truth of his own experience. He's singing

46
00:04:09.479 --> 00:04:15.639
from his own experience, from my
experience, from your experience, of our

47
00:04:15.759 --> 00:04:21.160
shared Christhood, of our sonship of
God, of the fatherhood of God.

48
00:04:21.800 --> 00:04:30.160
Here and now, so without further
ado, I'm just going to go to

49
00:04:30.199 --> 00:04:36.360
the podcast I did earlier today.
I love you with all my heart and

50
00:04:38.160 --> 00:04:43.360
have the most extraordinary Christmas. Thank
you for joining me in this moment.

51
00:04:43.879 --> 00:04:48.639
Thank you for remembering with me today. It's the winter Solstice, isn't it.

52
00:04:48.639 --> 00:04:55.800
It's just it's the perfect day.
I love you, and Merry Christmas.

53
00:04:56.240 --> 00:05:02.879
God bless us everyone. So here
we go. Hi, good afternoon,

54
00:05:02.959 --> 00:05:11.959
and welcome to this episode of Water
into Wine. So without further ado,

55
00:05:13.279 --> 00:05:16.000
we're of course getting to start with
a piece of music that's you know,

56
00:05:16.240 --> 00:05:20.759
tells you what the theme is in
case you haven't guessed. So here

57
00:05:20.839 --> 00:06:33.639
we go. So deck the halls. It's Christmas time. This is going

58
00:06:33.680 --> 00:06:40.720
to be our last podcast of this
particular program before Christmas. We will of

59
00:06:40.759 --> 00:06:45.399
course continue after Christmas, because as
you know, Christmas is this week.

60
00:06:45.480 --> 00:06:49.519
Christmas is on Friday, and we
do our podcasts on Monday, so the

61
00:06:49.519 --> 00:06:54.600
next time I see you it will
be after Christmas. So all we're going

62
00:06:54.600 --> 00:06:59.639
to do today is celebrate Christmas.
We're just really going to take this whole

63
00:06:59.680 --> 00:07:06.240
week and celebrate, but truly celebrate, feel the joy the peace that is

64
00:07:06.360 --> 00:07:15.199
Christmas within us, because Christmas is
something that happens to you personally, that

65
00:07:15.279 --> 00:07:21.000
has happened to you personally, individually
within your own mind. For Christ is

66
00:07:21.160 --> 00:07:26.319
born, it is your birth,
your own rebirth, if you like,

67
00:07:27.040 --> 00:07:33.639
into your own Christhood. We recognize
in this moment Christmas is nothing more than

68
00:07:33.920 --> 00:07:41.839
recognizing the fatherhood of God, our
sonship of God. Isn't that extraordinary?

69
00:07:42.319 --> 00:07:48.480
And so all we're going to focus
on today is that experience of joy of

70
00:07:48.720 --> 00:07:59.680
peace within our own hearts and really
feel it radiate through the entire universe because

71
00:07:59.680 --> 00:08:26.480
we really are the light of the
world. So here we go. For

85
00:10:35.799 --> 00:11:11.080
this game shining cold. So the
lighting the lasting Father, the bad Chahda

86
00:11:13.080 --> 00:12:22.720
doesn't for onto us. A child
is born? That is of course from

87
00:12:22.960 --> 00:12:30.399
Handel's Messiah, and that I believe
is actually quoted from Isaiah. And thank

88
00:12:30.440 --> 00:12:35.480
you so much David Clifton and the
choirs of Peterborough Cathedral. I just my

89
00:12:35.679 --> 00:12:41.440
heart, my gratitude goes out to
all these guys who make beautiful music and

90
00:12:41.679 --> 00:12:48.399
put the music in the public domain
so that we can all enjoy it without

91
00:12:48.519 --> 00:12:54.840
fear. Interestingly enough, I was
looking for Joy to the world, a

92
00:12:54.120 --> 00:12:58.759
free version of it that we could
play, and it's very very hard to

93
00:12:58.799 --> 00:13:01.679
come by. Well, let me
put it this way. I wasn't able

94
00:13:01.720 --> 00:13:09.360
to find. I found an electronic
version, which was a little too electronic

95
00:13:09.399 --> 00:13:15.919
for the occasion. It sounded like
somebody had done it with a cheese grater

96
00:13:16.159 --> 00:13:22.960
or something. I mean, you
know, kudos to them for making music.

97
00:13:24.080 --> 00:13:31.000
I completely appreciate the effort, but
it just wasn't quite right for our

98
00:13:31.039 --> 00:13:37.039
little podcast here anyway. So it's
Christmas time. This is the season that

99
00:13:37.080 --> 00:13:46.480
we all wait for. The whole
entire year really kind of culminates in this

100
00:13:46.720 --> 00:13:56.240
one enormous celebration, this festival of
lights, this extraordinary event in the history

101
00:13:56.000 --> 00:14:05.519
of mankind, the coming the advent
of the Christ, the remembering within the

102
00:14:05.639 --> 00:14:15.279
individual mind of my sonship of God, my remembrance that God is my father,

103
00:14:15.919 --> 00:14:20.919
the glory of that event, the
coming of the light, the recognition

104
00:14:22.120 --> 00:14:26.960
of the light, my seeing of
the light, my knowing the light.

105
00:14:26.679 --> 00:14:31.240
This is what Christmas is. So
we're going to start with a prayer.

106
00:14:31.639 --> 00:14:35.519
There isn't going to be a huge
amount of talking because I want to play

107
00:14:35.559 --> 00:14:43.320
you all the Christmas carols. Since
this is my last class before Christmas,

108
00:14:43.519 --> 00:14:46.679
I'm going to just spend all out
there. I'm going to give you all

109
00:14:46.720 --> 00:14:52.039
the songs. Mitch, of course
sang a few songs, a few Christmas

110
00:14:52.080 --> 00:14:58.440
carols for us. I used them
last year when I did that little recording.

111
00:14:58.039 --> 00:15:03.559
The Time of Perfect piece, which
is available on Spreaker, kind of

112
00:15:03.559 --> 00:15:09.279
starts from the from Christmas Eve through
New Year's Eve, and it's just an

113
00:15:09.360 --> 00:15:13.480
eight day period of just prayers.
I believe I might have played one of

114
00:15:13.519 --> 00:15:18.159
them, or you know, played
one of them last week. I think

115
00:15:18.200 --> 00:15:24.559
I did, probably not for this, oh now I remember of the disaster

116
00:15:24.720 --> 00:15:33.960
of last week's recording. I did
this extraordinary, extraordinary class. It's extraordinary

117
00:15:35.080 --> 00:15:39.360
because you know, it's always just
the episode of remembering our true nature,

118
00:15:39.399 --> 00:15:43.639
remembering the love of God and remembering
the light. And it was really quite

119
00:15:43.679 --> 00:15:54.399
extraordinary. Everything I said did not
make it onto the podcast because Hewlett Packard

120
00:15:54.600 --> 00:16:00.879
decided to update the microphone software on
this Peter. I have no idea why

121
00:16:02.840 --> 00:16:08.720
that they made everything go away.
And it was only after the class that

122
00:16:08.879 --> 00:16:14.200
Microsoft Windows told me that, you
know, HP had done something and that

123
00:16:14.360 --> 00:16:19.720
my microphone wasn't working and it needed
to be reset. So it got reset.

124
00:16:19.799 --> 00:16:25.799
Unfortunately it was too late, because
you know, this is a live

125
00:16:25.840 --> 00:16:30.639
broadcast. I'm doing this right on
the Spreaker live broadcast console on spreaker dot

126
00:16:30.679 --> 00:16:33.840
com. So what doesn't make it
doesn't make it. You know, there

127
00:16:33.879 --> 00:16:37.360
isn't a do over. This is
what I love about this. It's just

128
00:16:37.440 --> 00:16:42.360
it's now or never, and there
is only now So anyway, without further

129
00:16:42.399 --> 00:16:47.399
ado, I'm just going to get
back into the mood of this class.

130
00:16:48.879 --> 00:16:52.399
Let's start with a prayer, one
of my favorite prayers in the Course of

131
00:16:52.480 --> 00:16:56.440
Miracles, and the one that is
perfect, you know, for this for

132
00:16:56.480 --> 00:17:00.360
the season, you know, for
the season of peace and goodwill to all

133
00:17:00.440 --> 00:17:06.000
men, the season of joy.
So here we go with this prayer,

134
00:17:06.799 --> 00:17:11.680
and it is of course lessen to
twenty one of the workbook of a Course

135
00:17:11.720 --> 00:17:18.200
in Miracles, which interestingly enough comes
before lessen to twenty two, which we

136
00:17:18.319 --> 00:17:22.599
sing a lot. God is with
me, I live moving him. So

137
00:17:22.759 --> 00:17:26.519
this is a prayer that comes just
before that one, and it's peace to

138
00:17:26.599 --> 00:17:36.799
my mind. Let all my thoughts
be still. Father, I come to

139
00:17:36.839 --> 00:17:44.400
you today to seek the peace that
you alone can give. I come in

140
00:17:44.599 --> 00:17:51.680
silence, in the quiet of my
heart, the deep recesses of my mind.

141
00:17:51.920 --> 00:17:57.480
I wait and listen for your voice, My Father, speak to me

142
00:17:57.599 --> 00:18:06.160
today. I come to hear your
voice in silence and uncertainty and love.

143
00:18:07.359 --> 00:18:15.039
Sure you will hear my call and
answer me. Now do we wait in

144
00:18:15.200 --> 00:18:22.440
quiet? God is here. Because
we wait together, I am sure that

145
00:18:22.559 --> 00:18:30.559
He will speak to you and you
will hear. Accept my confidence for it

146
00:18:30.680 --> 00:18:40.319
is yours our minds are joined.
We wait with one intent to hear our

147
00:18:40.440 --> 00:18:48.359
father's answer to our call, to
let our thoughts be still and find his

148
00:18:48.599 --> 00:18:56.079
peace, to hear him speak to
us of what we are, and to

149
00:18:56.240 --> 00:19:23.599
reveal himself unto his son. Wow, said the night wind to the little

150
00:19:25.039 --> 00:19:37.200
land, Do you see what I
see? Way up in the sky,

151
00:19:37.000 --> 00:19:49.799
little land, Do you see what
I see? A storm? A star

152
00:19:52.440 --> 00:20:02.559
dancing in the night with a table
less big as a ki, with a

153
00:20:02.799 --> 00:20:25.000
tail as big as a kind sid
a little lamb. To the shepherd boy,

154
00:20:26.640 --> 00:20:41.000
do you hear one ringing through the
sky? Shepherd boy? Do you

155
00:20:41.160 --> 00:20:53.680
hear what a song? A song
high above the tree with a voice,

156
00:20:53.960 --> 00:21:04.440
a as big as the sea,
with a voice says big as the sea,

157
00:21:17.599 --> 00:21:27.000
said the shepherd boy to the mighty
King, do you know what I

158
00:21:27.079 --> 00:21:40.640
know? In your palace? Warm? Mighty King? Do you know what

159
00:21:41.079 --> 00:21:52.079
I know? The child? The
child shippers in the cold. Let us

160
00:21:52.200 --> 00:22:08.839
bring him silver and gold. Let
us bring him silver and gold, said

161
00:22:10.000 --> 00:22:23.960
the King to the people everywhere.
Listen to what I say. Pray for

162
00:22:25.160 --> 00:22:38.759
peace, people everywhere, listen to
what I say. The child, the

163
00:22:38.960 --> 00:22:51.000
child sleeping in the night, He
will bring us goodness and light. He

164
00:22:51.240 --> 00:23:10.319
will bring us goodness and lone.
Thank you, Mitch, thank you so

165
00:23:10.599 --> 00:23:14.680
much. That was Mitch and John, everyone, I love you so much.

166
00:23:14.920 --> 00:23:21.200
Thank you. In this season Christmas, which celebrates the birth of holiness

167
00:23:21.240 --> 00:23:26.119
into this world, join with me, who decided for holiness for you.

168
00:23:27.720 --> 00:23:36.240
It is our task together to restore
the awareness of magnitude to the host whom

169
00:23:36.279 --> 00:23:42.319
God appointed for himself. It is
beyond all littleness to give the gift of

170
00:23:42.440 --> 00:23:51.039
God, but not beyond you,
for God would give himself through you.

171
00:23:52.079 --> 00:23:59.519
He reaches from you to everyone,
and beyond everyone, to his son's creations,

172
00:24:00.240 --> 00:24:06.960
without leaving you, far beyond your
little world, but still in you.

173
00:24:07.839 --> 00:24:15.119
He extends forever. Yet he brings
all his extensions to you as host

174
00:24:15.799 --> 00:24:21.799
to him. This is Christmas,
dear one. This is how you must

175
00:24:21.839 --> 00:24:26.799
begin to experience yourself now. This
is the reason for the season, for

176
00:24:26.960 --> 00:24:34.359
you to recognize your own Christhood.
Angels, we have heard on high.

177
00:24:36.279 --> 00:24:48.799
Here's mitching John again. Angels,
we have heard on high sweetly singing all

178
00:24:48.880 --> 00:25:12.119
the plains and the mountains reply calling
the joy strange Aria inn excelsius dayo claw

179
00:25:18.279 --> 00:25:33.440
oia Innaxcelsius, day o, shepherds, Why this Tubli, Why your joy

180
00:25:33.920 --> 00:25:53.240
strains prolong? What the gladson tidings
be which inspire your hevenly song? Clowia,

181
00:25:55.240 --> 00:26:22.559
innax Clsius dayo, Hello, Excelsius, Gloria in exjealsice Dale. See

182
00:26:22.599 --> 00:26:27.119
I say it like a Catholic,
I say, exjalsis, this is how

183
00:26:27.160 --> 00:26:32.720
we learned it. I love that
she says, Excelsius with that very soft

184
00:26:32.839 --> 00:26:38.799
sea thank you. That was just
beautiful. So let's continue here. I

185
00:26:38.839 --> 00:26:44.039
mean, this is chapter fifteen of
the text of A Course and Miracles.

186
00:26:44.400 --> 00:26:48.640
This is everything you need to know
and experience in this moment. This is

187
00:26:48.680 --> 00:26:56.160
what Christmas is. It's your recognition, it's your experience of the divine light

188
00:26:56.279 --> 00:27:03.039
of God in you. The Holy
Christ is born in you. You are

189
00:27:03.119 --> 00:27:08.799
the Christ. So here we go, Holy child of God. When will

190
00:27:08.839 --> 00:27:17.200
you learn that only holiness can content
you and give you peace? Remember that

191
00:27:17.240 --> 00:27:22.200
you learn not for yourself alone,
no more than I did. It is

192
00:27:22.240 --> 00:27:29.319
because I learned for you that you
can learn of me. I would but

193
00:27:29.559 --> 00:27:34.920
teach you what is yours, so
that together we can replace the shabby littleness

194
00:27:36.319 --> 00:27:41.559
that binds the host of God to
guilt and weakness with the glad awareness of

195
00:27:41.599 --> 00:27:48.640
the glory that is in Him.
My birth in you is your awakening to

196
00:27:48.799 --> 00:27:55.920
grandeur. Welcome me not in a
manger, but into the altar to holiness

197
00:27:56.400 --> 00:28:02.480
where holiness abides in perfect peace.
My kingdom is not of this world,

198
00:28:03.000 --> 00:28:07.720
because it is in you, and
you are of your Father. Let us

199
00:28:07.880 --> 00:28:22.359
join in honoring you, who must
remain forever beyond littleness. Wow. Come,

00:31:17.680 --> 00:31:25.039
Christ is born in me today.
Watch with me, Angels, watch with

214
00:31:25.319 --> 00:31:33.480
me today. Let all God's holy
thoughts surround me and be still with me

215
00:31:33.519 --> 00:31:42.799
while Heaven's son is born. Wow. Let earthly sounds be quiet, and

216
00:31:42.960 --> 00:31:51.279
the sights to which I am accustomed
to disappear. Let Christ be welcomed where

217
00:31:51.359 --> 00:31:56.880
he is at home, and let
him hear the sounds he understands and see

218
00:31:57.039 --> 00:32:04.240
but sights that show his father love. Let him no longer be a stranger

219
00:32:04.319 --> 00:32:10.519
here, for he is born again
in me today. Your son is welcome.

220
00:32:10.680 --> 00:32:15.359
Father. He has come to save
me from the evil self I made.

221
00:32:17.079 --> 00:32:22.480
He is the self that you have
given me. He is but what

222
00:32:22.640 --> 00:32:28.640
I really am. In truth,
He is the son you love above all

223
00:32:28.920 --> 00:32:37.200
things. He is myself as you
created me. It is not Christ that

224
00:32:37.400 --> 00:32:47.119
can be crucified, safe in your
arms. Let me receive your son.

225
00:33:00.160 --> 00:33:23.640
Lent Night, Holy night, oldly

is all I seek today? What but

232
00:36:21.400 --> 00:36:27.199
Christ's vision would I use today?
When it can offer me a day in

233
00:36:27.320 --> 00:36:35.559
which I see a world so like
to heaven that an ancient memory returns to

234
00:36:35.719 --> 00:36:44.480
me. Today, I can forget
the world I made. Today, I

235
00:36:44.599 --> 00:36:51.599
can go past all fear and be
restored to love and holiness and peace.

236
00:36:52.239 --> 00:37:00.760
Today I am redeemed and born anew
into a world of money and of care,

237
00:37:01.679 --> 00:37:09.199
of loving kindness and the peace of
God. And so our Father,

238
00:37:09.960 --> 00:37:17.960
we return to you, remembering we
never went away, remembering your holy gifts

239
00:37:19.079 --> 00:37:27.519
to us in gratitude and thankfulness.
We come with empty hands and open hearts

240
00:37:27.559 --> 00:37:34.199
and minds, asking, but what
you give. We cannot make an offering

241
00:37:34.360 --> 00:37:42.039
sufficient for your son. But in
your love the gift of Christ is his

242
00:37:50.920 --> 00:38:02.960
Oh and balm and balm thou tree, most fair and lovely, ou tan

you, John, thank you,
Father, thank you you, thank you

251
00:39:42.400 --> 00:39:49.000
all of you. Thank you.
This instant is the only time there is.

252
00:39:50.639 --> 00:39:53.960
I have conceived of time in such
a way that I defeat my aim.

253
00:39:55.360 --> 00:40:02.440
If I elect to reach past time
to timelessness, I must change my

254
00:40:02.719 --> 00:40:10.280
perception of what time is. For
time's purpose cannot be to keep the past

255
00:40:10.360 --> 00:40:19.320
and future one The only interval in
which I can be saved from time is

256
00:40:19.480 --> 00:40:27.119
now, for in this instant has
forgiveness come to set me free. The

257
00:40:27.280 --> 00:40:32.760
birth of Christ is now without a
past or future. He has come to

258
00:40:32.880 --> 00:40:39.039
give his present blessing to the world, restoring it to timelessness and love,

259
00:40:40.280 --> 00:40:51.159
and love is ever present here and
now. Wow. Thanks for this instant,

260
00:40:51.280 --> 00:40:58.440
Father, It is now I am
redeemed. This instant is the time

261
00:40:58.679 --> 00:41:06.400
you have appointed for your son's release
and for the salvation of the world in

262
00:41:06.719 --> 00:41:19.960

272
00:43:58.559 --> 00:44:02.880
Father, would I spend you as
you have chosen all my days should be.

273
00:44:05.440 --> 00:44:12.039
And what I will experience is not
of time at all. The joy

274
00:44:12.159 --> 00:44:17.000
that comes to me is not of
days nor hours, for it comes from

275
00:44:17.199 --> 00:44:25.159
heaven to your sun. This day
will be your sweet reminder to remember you,

276
00:44:27.440 --> 00:44:32.320
your gracious calling to your holy son, the sign your grace has come

277
00:44:32.400 --> 00:44:38.320
to me, and that it is
your will I be set free to day.

278
00:44:40.440 --> 00:44:46.039
We spend this day together, you
and I and all the world joins

279
00:44:46.159 --> 00:44:52.760
with us in our song of thankfulness
and joy to him who gave salvation to

280
00:44:53.000 --> 00:45:00.039
us and who set us free.
We are restored to peace and holiness.

281
00:45:01.000 --> 00:45:07.159
There is no room in us for
fear today, for we have welcomed love

282
00:45:08.360 --> 00:45:29.440
into our hearts. Away a manger, no crib for a bend. The

283
00:45:29.719 --> 00:45:42.559
Little Lord Jesus laid down his sweet
head. The stars in the sky looked

284
00:45:42.639 --> 00:45:52.800
down where he lay, the Little
Lord Jesus. The sleep warm the head,

290
00:47:12.039 --> 00:47:29.880

end to all the peace and joy and

291
00:47:30.119 --> 00:47:36.440
all the miracles that I will give
when I accept God's word? Why not

292
00:47:36.679 --> 00:47:42.519
today? Why not now? Why
should I wait, my father for the

293
00:47:42.679 --> 00:47:46.480

will keep your word you gave your son

294
00:47:46.599 --> 00:47:52.159
in exile. I am sure my
treasure waits for me, and I need

295
00:47:52.320 --> 00:48:00.599
but reach out my hand to find
it. Even now my fingers touch it.

296
00:48:00.400 --> 00:48:06.960
It is very close. I need
not wait an instant more to be

297
00:48:07.119 --> 00:48:14.000
at peace forever. It is you
I choose, and my identity along with

298
00:48:14.239 --> 00:48:22.280
you. Your son would be himself
and know you as his father and his

299
00:48:22.599 --> 00:48:30.320
creator and his love. Thank you, Father, I love you with all

300

says all the things and asking ass
souss a goal it's all the time he

303
00:50:52.559 --> 00:51:24.079
saw see. I am God's Son, complete and healed and whole, shining

304
00:51:24.360 --> 00:51:31.800
in the reflection of His love.
In me is his creation sanctified and guaranteed.

305
00:51:32.000 --> 00:51:40.599
Eternal life. In me is love
perfected, fear impossible, and joy

306
00:51:42.039 --> 00:51:49.320
established without opposite. I am the
holy home of God himself. I am

307
00:51:49.440 --> 00:51:55.639
the heaven where his love resides.
I am his holy sinlessness itself. For

308
00:51:55.840 --> 00:52:02.199
in my purity abides his own.
That is true. That is you.

309
00:52:05.199 --> 00:52:10.880
That's the truth about you. That
is your identity. That is the experience

310
00:52:12.039 --> 00:52:20.280
of Christmas, that realization, that
remembrance deep within your own heart and mind.

311
00:52:21.440 --> 00:52:30.679
You know that unequivocally you are the
Holy Son of God himself. Our

312
00:52:30.840 --> 00:52:36.199
useful words is almost over now.
Yet in the final days of this one

313
00:52:36.360 --> 00:52:40.920
year we gave to God. Together
you and I we found the single purpose

314
00:52:42.039 --> 00:52:46.440
that we shared, and thus you
joined with me. So what I am

315
00:52:46.880 --> 00:52:52.400
are you as well. The truth
of what we are is not for words

316
00:52:52.480 --> 00:52:59.800
to speak of nor describe. Yet
we can realize our function here and words

317
00:52:59.840 --> 00:53:07.039
can speak of this and teach it
too. If we exemplify the words in

318
00:53:07.519 --> 00:53:15.119
us we are the bringers of salvation. We accept our part as saviors of

319
00:53:15.280 --> 00:53:22.320
the world, which through our joint
forgiveness is redeemed, and this our gift

320
00:53:22.599 --> 00:53:30.320
is therefore given us. We look
on everyone as brother and perceive all things

321
00:53:30.760 --> 00:53:37.920
as kindly and as good. We
do not seek a function that is past

322
00:53:38.000 --> 00:53:45.800
the gate of heaven. Knowledge will
return when we have done our part.

323
00:53:46.000 --> 00:53:57.079
We are concerned only with giving welcome
to the truth. Ours are the eyes

324
00:53:57.239 --> 00:54:01.039
through which Christ's vision sees a world
read deemed from every thought of sin.

325
00:54:02.599 --> 00:54:07.880
Ours are the ears that hear the
voice for God proclaim the world as sinless.

326
00:54:09.639 --> 00:54:15.679
Ours the mind that joined together as
we bless the world, and from

327
00:54:15.760 --> 00:54:22.119
the oneness that we have attained.
We call to all our brothers, asking

328
00:54:22.239 --> 00:54:29.960
them to share our peace and consummate
our joy. We are the holy messengers

329
00:54:30.000 --> 00:54:36.559
of God, who speak for him
and carrying his word to everyone whom He

330
00:54:36.679 --> 00:54:40.679
has sent to us. We learn
that it is written on our hearts,

331
00:54:42.800 --> 00:54:49.840
and thus our minds are changed about
the aim for which we came and which

332
00:54:49.960 --> 00:54:54.760
we seek to serve. We bring
glad tidings to the Son of God,

333
00:54:55.239 --> 00:55:02.400
who thought he suffered, now is
he redeemed, and as he sees the

334
00:55:02.519 --> 00:55:10.840
gates of heaven stand open before him, he will enter in and disappear into

335
00:55:10.920 --> 00:55:19.360
the heart of God. Wow.
And on that note, my dearest brother,

336
00:55:19.800 --> 00:55:25.800
my love, my friend, my
savior, my oneself, we will

337
00:55:25.920 --> 00:55:32.639
bring this podcast to a close,
and we will close with the song with

338
00:55:32.760 --> 00:55:38.239
which we opened, Deck the Halls. But now we are going to have
