I am often challenged about how I know what I know and how I know that some things, whether in Scripture or not, are True or not true. This is my answer.
God has not stopped revealing himself and inspiring us. Note: My quotes are from the King James Version.
Luke 17:21 "...the kingdom of God is within you." God is not somewhere "way out there". God is your heartbeat. God is your breath. God is in every particle of your being. He knows you intimately because he is you and you are him.
Jer 31:33 "But this [shall be] the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people."
Psa 51:6 "Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden [part] thou shalt make me to know wisdom."
The TRUTH of God's WISDOM is within us waiting for us to discover that Truth and that Wisdom. This is a part of who and what we are. Those who wrote Scripture drew on this Reality and they were no different than we are, but perhaps more "in tune".
1 John 3:2 "Beloved, now are we the sons of God..."
Gal 4:6 "And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father."
Who are we and what is this Spirit in our Heart of hearts? "...God is a consuming fire..." (Deu 4:24, Hbr 12:29). 1 John 1:5 "...God is light, and in him is no darkness at all." AND we were created in the image and likeness of God (Gen 1:26). Mat 5:14 "Ye are the light of the world." All of Creation is built by the Light of God and formed by the Word. The Word is Christ, the Logos, the Son, the Light, sound, vibration, frequency. Light is self luminous, innately intelligent, conscious energy.
We are a soul, a living potential of God, and a Spirit which are temporarily housed in these "Physical" bodies of which there are actually Four: Etheric (Fire, Memory), Mental (Air, Mind), Emotional (Water, Desire), and Physical (Earth). Our Fire body has organs which, in Sanskrit, are called "chakras" which means wheels (Ezekiel's "Wheels within Wheels"). These chakras act as step down transformers for the Light and Fire of God that we receive over the umbilical cord which is "a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb" (Rev 22:1). Luke 4:4 "And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God." And I have already shown that the Word of God is his Light, his Christ.
Within our hearts is an "Interior Castle" (St Terese of Avila), which is also called The Secret Chamber of the Heart chakra. Within this Secret Chamber is the abode of "the Spirit of his Son" (Gal 4:6). This Spirit is a Spirit Spark, a Flame of God's Fire (Deu 4:24), an Unfed Threefold Flame of Power (Blue, Father), Wisdom (Yellow, Son) and Love (Pink, Holy Spirit) which proceed out of a White Cube (Purity, Divine Mother). This Flame is the portal, the "open door of the I Am" (Exd 3:14) to the kingdom of God within us (Luke 17:21).
This "Spirit of his Son", this Unfed Threefold Flame, is like a seed and a seed, when it germinates and grows, becomes exactly like the parent of the seed. Our soul must nourish and water this Flame with Love and Devotion to help it grow, expand, and intensify because this Flame is what enables us to "let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus" (Phil 2:5). This Flame is Christ, it is the Light that we must not hide but let shine before men. Mat 5:16 "Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven." When our soul has united with that Flame and has "put on Christ" (Gal 3:27, Gal 4:19) then we will be a unique manifestation of Christ. 1 Cor 12:27 "Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular." We must put on and become Christ in order for us to fulfill our unique purpose and position in the one body of Christ. And when we have put on and become the unique Christ that we were intended to be, then we shall be able to do those things which Jesus did and even greater things (John 14:12). When at least 51% of the souls of this planet have done this then we shall be in a Golden Age of Enlightenment and Peace "...and the government shall be upon his shoulder" (Isa 9:6), the shoulder of the Christ of all of us.
How do I know all of this?
John 14:26 "But the Comforter, [which is] the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you." Rev 11:3 "And I will give [power] unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy..." Joel 2:28 "And it shall come to pass afterward, [that] I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions." Rev 10:7 "But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the Prophets."
In my Blog, http://carltonnewman.blogspot.com I talk about the events prior to and subsequent to my quickening and awakening by the Light of God in 1972 (click on Older Posts at the bottom and start with Chapter One). To summarize, I was on my knees (almost involuntarily) in prayer when I finally asked God what it was that I could do to help him solve the problems of the world. It was then that a Brilliant Light came upon me and that Light was not like any light on earth; to say that it was brighter than 10,000 suns does not do it justice. That Light was Pure LIFE: Joy, Love, Peace, Comfort, Illumination, the Holy Spirit; the list would be endless. As a result I can relate to what Paul experienced on the road to Damascus (Acts 9 and 26) when Jesus spoke to him out of the Light and blinded his eyes. And just as Paul was led to Ananias to be healed of his blindness, so to I sought one who could teach me what I needed to know so that I could help God. After two years of searching I found that one; and guess what; her surname was Prophet. I have been with her organization ever since. You can learn as I have by going to http://www.thesummitlighthouse.org and study these things which are the Everlasting Gospel of Jesus Christ as delivered by Jesus Christ through the Comforter, the Holy Spirit, to the Two Witnesses, Mark and Elizabeth Clare Prophet.
