The Ancient Word Series: The Gospel of Peace
Excerpt for the Month of June:
And the Elder (Christ Yeshu) said to the Brothers: "I would speak to you of peace, for of all the Angels of the Heavenly Father, Yehovah, peace is that for which the world most yearns, as a tired babe longs to put his head on his mother's breast.
It is the lack of peace that troubles the kingdoms, even when they are not at war.
For violence and warfare may reign in a kingdom even when the sounds of clashing swords are not heard. Though no armies march one against the other, still there is no peace when the Sons of Men walk not with the Angels of God.
I tell you truly, many are those who do not know peace; for they are at war with their own body; they are at war with their thoughts; they have no peace with their fathers, their mothers, their children; they have no peace with their friends and neighbors; they know not the beauty of the Holy Scrolls; they labor not through the day in the kingdom of their Earthly Mother (Wisdom); nor do they sleep at night in the arms of their Heavenly Father, Yehovah.
Peace reigns not within them, for ever do they thirst for that which in the end brings only misery and pain, even those trappings of riches and fame which Sataniel uses to tempt the Sons of Men; and they live in ignorance of the Law, even that Holy Law by which we live: the path of the Angels of the Earthly Mother (Wisdom) and the Heavenly Father, Yehovah."
"How, then, may we bring peace to our brothers, Master?" asked some of the Elder (Christ Yeshu), "for we would that all the Sons of Men share in the blessings of the Angel of Peace."
And he answered: "Truly, only he who is at peace with all the angels can shed the light of peace on others.
Therefore, first be at peace with all the Angels of the Earthly Mother (Wisdom) and the Heavenly Father, Yehovah. For the winds of a storm stir and trouble the waters of the river, and only the stillness that follows can calm them once again.
Take care when your brother asks you for bread, that you give him not stones. Live first in peace with all the angels, for then your peace will be as a fountain that does replenish itself with the giving, and the more you give, so the more you will be given, for such is the Law.
"Three are the dwellings of the Son of Man, and no one may come before the face of God, The Eternal Almighty One! who knows not the Angel of Peace in each of the three.
These are his body, his thoughts, and his feelings.
When the Angel of Wisdom guides his thoughts, when the Angel of Love purifies his feelings, and when the deeds of his body reflect both love and wisdom, then does the Angel of Peace guide him unfailingly to the throne of his Heavenly Father, Yehovah.
And he should pray without ceasing that the power of Sataniel (known as Satan) with all his diseases and uncleanness’s may be cast out of all of his three dwellings; that Power and Wisdom and Love may reign in his body, his thoughts, and his feelings.
"First shall the Son of Man seek peace with his own body; for his body is as a mountain pond that reflects the sun when it is still and clear; but when it is full of mud and stones, it reflects nothing.
"After this manner, therefore, pray."

Peace be with you!
