The Unofficial Infinite Way - A Parenthesis in Eternity

"Glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory I had with thee before the world was."

"A Parenthesis in Eternity" by Joel S. Goldsmith

Except the Lord build the house, they labour in vain that build it. -- Psalm 127

Illumination dissolves all material ties and binds men together with the golden chains of spiritual understanding; it acknowledges only the leadership of the Christ; it has no ritual or rule but the divine, impersonal, universal love, no other worship than the inner Flame that is ever lit at the shrine of Spirit. This union is the free state of spiritual brotherhood. The only restraint is the discipline of Soul; therefore, we know liberty without license; we are a united universe without physical limits, a divine service to God without ceremony or creed. The illumined walk without fear -- by Grace.
