The Hidden Secret Of God
It will come suddenly upon you – the Holy Spirit. It will come like a storm wind, and when it comes, you will wake to find yourself entombed, and then you will have the innate wisdom – for Christ is also the wisdom of God, not only the power of God – to move that stone from where it was. That was the seal. Break it by pushing it from within, and you will come out, and you will find surrounding you the witnesses to the Great Event that God succeeded in His purpose, which was waking you as God. For this is the birth of God, “not born of blood or of the will of the flesh or the will of man, but of God.” And you come out, and the sign of your birth is present, and here is the sign wrapped – as you are told – in swaddling clothes. And you pick it up and in the most endearing manner you say, “How is my sweetheart?” and the whole thing vanishes, including the three witnesses who witnessed the birth. Then comes the second Great Event, when he stands before you, and you fulfill Scripture, the 89th Psalm: “I have found David, and he has cried unto me, ‘Thou art my Father, my God, and the Rock of my Salvation.’” And then he stands before you. And this relationship is forever. It’s the returning memory, for you do not have the feeling that it happens now. It’s simply that your memory has returned, just as though you had suffered from total amnesia. It’s not something that startles you; you have always known he was your son. That’s the feeling that I had. So, all of a sudden, he comes back. What comes back? Well, “the Holy Spirit is upon me.” Well, who is the Holy Spirit? He “who brings to your remembrance all that I have told you.” “And did not David, in the spirit, call me ‘my Lord’?” Well, when he calls you “my lord” – which is the name of my Father, for all sons called their father and spoke of their father as “my lord” – so, “David, in the spirit, called me ‘my lord.’” He does it in spirit, not here on earth. And then comes the grand severance of your body from top to bottom, and your ascent into heaven, separating the event called “Resurrection” from the “Ascension.” And you can count them. It’s not any forty days. You can count the whole thing up. It’s between – mine was on the 20th of July of ’59, and, the Ascent took place on the 8th day of April of 1960, and that’s when one ascends – ascends into Heaven. And the whole thing, as you are told, reverberates like thunder. And then comes the Seal of Approval on the twelve hundred and sixtieth day. And that is the descent of the Holy Spirit in bodily form as a dove. And here he rests upon you. You bring him up, and he is smothering you with kisses when the whole thing fades.
The Promise unfolds through a series of distinct mystical experiences: first, the sudden coming of the Holy Spirit, leading to an awakening from an entombed state (Resurrection) and the birth of God (signified by a babe in swaddling clothes). Second, the encounter with David, who recognizes you as Father, a restoration of ancient memory. Third, the severance of the body and ascent into Heaven (Ascension). Fourth, after 1260 days, the descent of the Holy Spirit as a dove, signifying the Seal of Approval. These events are personal, internal, and precisely timed.
Who Am I
The pattern begins with an event called the resurrection. In my own experience, I actually awoke from a sleep of which I was totally unaware. ... On your turn around you awake, and where do you think you are? In your skull! ... The next grand event came a few months later, when a similar vibration resulted in another explosion within me. And when it was still, David of Biblical fame stood before me and I knew he was my son. ... Then, for the first time, I knew who I really was. ... Jesus did not start his ministry until that fourth and final act, which was the descent of the Holy Spirit in the embodied form of a dove. He didn’t start with the resurrection (his birth from above), the discovery of David as his Son, or the splitting of the temple (which was his own body) from top to bottom. These things are awe inspiring, but he waited until the final act, which took exactly three and one half years.
The "Promise" is a series of specific mystical experiences that unfold within the individual, revealing their true identity as God the Father. These events include: 1) Resurrection (awakening in the skull), 2) Birth from Above (coming out of the skull), 3) Revelation of the Son (David appearing as one's son), 4) The Splitting of the Temple (the body), and 5) The Descent of the Holy Spirit (as a dove). These events occur over a period of three and a half years.
