Test On Sincerity

The master said, “The Logos will give heed to what I say: No man can enter into light till he has found himself. Go forth and search till you have found your soul and then return.” The guide led Jesus to a room in which the light was faint and mellow, like the light of early dawn. The chamber walls were marked with mystic signs, with hieroglyphs (symbols and pictographs) and sacred texts; and in this chamber Jesus found Himself alone where He remained for many days. He read the sacred texts; thought out the meaning of the hieroglyphs and sought the importance of the master's charge to find himself.

A revelation came; He got acquainted with His soul; He found Himself; then He was not alone.

One night He slept and at the midnight hour, a door that He had not observed, was opened, and a priest in somber garb (dull and gloomy dress) came in and said, “My brother, pardon me for coming in at this unseemly hour; but I have come to save your life. You are the victim of a cruel plot. The priests of Heliopolis are jealous of your fame, and they have said that you shall never leave these gloomy crypts (tombs, basements) alive. The higher priests do not go forth to teach the world, and you are doomed to temple servitude. Now, if you would be free, you must deceive these priests; must tell them you are here to stay for life; And then, when you have gained all that you wish to gain, I will return, and by a secret way will lead you forth that you may go in peace.”

And Jesus said,

“My brother man, would you come here to teach deceit?

Am I within these holy walls to learn the wiles of vile hypocrisy?

Nay, man, my Father scorns deceit, and I am here to do His will. Deceive these priests! Not while the sun shall shine. What I have said, that I have said; I will be true to them, to God, and to myself.”

And then the tempter left, and Jesus was again alone; but in a little time a white- robed priest appeared and said, “Well done! The Logos has prevailed. This is the trial chamber of hypocrisy. And then he led the way, and Jesus stood before the judgement seat. And all the brothers stood; the hierophant came forth and laid his hand on Jesus' head, and placed within his hands a scroll, on which was written just one word, SINCERITY; and not a word was said.
The guide again appeared, and led the way, and in a spacious room replete with everything a student craves was Jesus bade to rest and wait.

Lessons From The First Examination

1. The children of God should cultivate the habit of patient study.

2. They should take the earthly and heavenly education as very important.

3. They should cultivate the habit of patient meditation. They have to observe quiet time and meditation, because that is the door and pathway to their Father’s house, the Kingdom of Heaven.

4. Nobody is able to know much about God and life, without observing quiet time and meditation.

5. The works of the ministers of God is not just praying and delivering messages. The ministers of God should master every aspect of human endeavour, and by so doing be able to direct all humanity in the ways of doing things, according to the word of God and by doing the will of God.

6. Transfiguration took place while Jesus was in the secluded place, Jesus experienced Himself as the God Almighty. That is why the account stated, “A revelation came; He got acquainted with His soul; He found Himself; then He was not alone.” To discover oneself means self-realization, to know oneself as a God. Man is a perfect God, in seed-form, sent to this world to develop, just as a seed is sown in the soil to develop and unfold into a full parent tree.

7. Transfiguration is not only limited to Jesus. Everybody can experience his own transfiguration. That is why you should remain steadfast in the Covenant System Of Worship established by God Almighty, pray for your own transfiguration, and observe quiet time and meditation.

8. Then He was not alone. When you become spiritually developed, you shall discover that nobody is ever alone, because God Almighty is there with the person and the Hosts of Angels and Saints of Heaven visit and encamp around the children of God. That was why Elisha said to his servants, Gehazi, “Do not fear, for those who are with us are more than those who are with them." And Elisha prayed, and said, "Lord, I pray, open his eyes that he may see." Then the Lord opened the eyes of the young man, and he saw. And behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha.

So when the Syrians came down to him, Elisha prayed to the Lord, and said, "Strike this people, I pray, with blindness." And He struck them with blindness according to the word of Elisha.” 2 Kings 6:16-18

9. The same tempter that visited Jesus in the seclusion is the same deceptive spirit that misleads the ministers of God into establishing each person his own religion, churches, ministries and fellowships. This fact is evident in the following words of the tempter, “Now, if you would be free, you must deceive these priests; must tell them you are here to stay for life; And then, when you have gained all that you wish to gain, I will return, and by a secret way will lead you forth that you may go in peace.”

10. The moment you establish your own church, ministry or fellowship, you have deviated from God, because you have excluded yourself from the one true church of God. Besides, it is not everybody that God gave the authority to build or establish church. Majority of the founders of the various religions, churches, ministries and fellowships are guilty and bound to hell fire, for establishing another church, ministry or fellowship, whereas they were called to remain steadfast in the one true Covenant System Of Worship.

11. The only reason why you were given any spiritual talents is for you to work with the FirstSon of God, Jesus Christ. The moment you establish church, ministry or fellowship, you have separated yourself from God and shall end up inside the hell fire. It is only Jesus that is the way, the truth and the life.

12. Jesus demonstrated the fact that all men should prove themselves trustworthy before God, by remaining steadfast – “What I have said, that I have said; I will be true to them, to God, and to myself.”

Do you know that most of the churches, ministries and fellowships you see today were established out of jealousy, greed, selfishness, disobedience and competition?

13. The expression, “and not a word was said,” shows the importance of sign language. The children of God should learn how to communicate by signs, because the Kingdom of Heaven is a kingdom that exists in silence. The Hosts of Angels and Saints of Heaven often communicate in silence by the use of signs.

14. The instruction, “Take then the vow of secret brotherhood,” means that you should not go about telling everybody you see about the spiritual realities of life. You tell only those who are ready and willing to do the will of God. That is why Jesus often spoke in parables to the multitudes, because He knew that many people followed Him just to get miracles, solutions to their problems and provisions to their needs. Many were not yet spiritually developed, and they were not earnest to worship God in spirit and in truth.

Also, the purpose of evangelism is not to preach to everybody. The Gospel of Truth and Salvation is meant for the children of God only. That was why the Holy Spirit was directing the apostles and disciples of Jesus on where to go and whom to convert.

Today, religions, churches, ministries and fellowships go on evangelism, inviting everybody to their church. That is how the agents of darkness entered, overpopulated and conquered the church. And for many years, it has being very hard for Christians to drive out all these agents of Satan. That is one reason why the religions, churches, ministries and fellowships have failed humanity.

15. The highest grade of the spirits are the Elohims, the Cherubim and Seraphim and the Orphanims. Everybody can attain such heights in God, by earnest interest and personal efforts - “The greatest heights are gained by those who reach the greatest depths; and you shall reach the greatest depths.”

Do not be among the blind and ignorant majority, who refuse to keep he everlasting covenant laws of God, because of their laziness.

16. Jesus demonstrated the importance of bathing with holy waters - The guide then led the way, and in the fountain Jesus bathed; and when He had been clothed in proper garb He stood again before the hierophant.

17. Regularly bathing with holy waters is necessary, both good and compulsory, because the spiritual life is quite different from the physical life.
