God is known by experience or not at all. I have experienced God. I can no more deny it than I can the humblest evidence of my senses; so I feel qualified to tell you how you are going to experience God. There is only God in the world. When you say, “I AM,” that’s God forever and forever.
Tonight you will know why the term “Judeo-Christian” came to be hyphenated. The story as told in the Old Testament is a prophetic blueprint; that which is told in the New is its fulfillment. They are really two parts of one book: the prophecy and its fulfillment.
“God became as we are, that we may be as He is.” [Blake, from “There is No Natural Religion”] Every little child born of woman is aware that it is. Before it is aware of what it is, who it is, where it is, it is aware that it is. That’s fundamental. That is God-in-that-child. It’s the same God in the adult. It is the Dreamer in man. It has to be awakened; and when it awakes, it is the being in whom it awakes, and then he knows Who-He-Is.
We are told in Scripture that: “The hour is coming when all of those who are in the tomb will hear His voice and come forth.” They hear the voice of the Son: it’s called the voice of the child. And the voice of the child, like a tuning fork, sets the tone; and then the Dreamer awakes and knows that he is God. It’s entirely up to the voice of the Son.
“When the time had fully come, God sent forth the Spirit of His Son into our hearts crying, Father.”
He is crying “Father,” but we do not hear it . . not until “the fullness of time has come.”
We are told in the 44th Psalm: “Rouse Thyself. Why sleepest Thou, O Lord? It is God who sleeps in man. It is God-in-man who does everything that man does . . good, bad or indifferent. He actually became as I AM . . that’s His name . . that I may be as He is. And He is Father.
The day is coming; everyone will know the experience that I have had, for there is no other experience in Eternity that can convince you that you are God the Father, other than this experience. His Son must call you, and you must respond; and when you actually hear it and then look and see what is calling, and it is your “son” David, then everything returns. Memory returns, and you know exactly Who-You. Are: that you are God the Father, and you “son” is David.
This secret is told us in Scripture in the words “Jesus Christ,” and you take it as one being , one being only, if you that “I and my Father are one;” but if you do not know that that, here you find two beings.
Jesus is I AM. That’s the Lord. “No one can say that Jesus is Lord, except by the Holy Spirit.” The Holy Spirit is called the “remembrancer.”
“I will go, and I will send the Holy Spirit who will bring to your understanding all that you have heard from me.” So he brings back the memory that you lost. But “No one can say that Jesus is Lord except by the Holy Spirit.” So when the Spirit comes and memory returns. but you will never know that you really are until you hear the voice of your own “son,” for you are suffering from complete and total amnesia. You do not know that you are God the Father! And you will never know it until you hear the Son’s voice; he is calling and calling, but only when the moment is ripe do you hear it. Just as we have told you, like when the moment is ripe do you hear it. Just as we have told you, like the tuning fork it sets the tone, and it wakes you, and you hear it. When you awake, standing before you is your “son;” and memory returns . the Remembrancer, the Holy Spirit. And then you know exactly Who-You-Are, and you are God the Father!
It is going to happen to every child born of woman. And therefore, every child born of woman is one with the speaker who has had that experience, because it is the identical “son” who is calling him “Father.” And there is only one God, one Father of all, and only Son. So when he calls you “Father,” and you know it because memory returns, and he has called me “Father,” and I know it. then you and I are one.
So “There is only one body, one spirit, one hope, one lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all, who is above all, through all, and in all.” That’s the mystery of Scripture. It hasn’t a thing to do with secular history. It is all salvation history. It has not a thing to do with history as the world teaches it.
