Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly. But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speak- ing. Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him. After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. They kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we for- give our debtors. And lead us not into tempta- tion, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen. "Behold, I Make All Things New" Rev. 21:3 The present evil world shall pass away, With it goes the fruits of evil strife, Behold the new has come on earth to stay, With glorious blessings of true life. The old world its evil can no longer stay, Our Father's promise is to bless mankind, The fruits of false ideas shall pass away, Man shall know the truth of the Father's mind. Ecclesias, with false ideas of inind Shall know, the truth shall cancel power of sin, No longer their wickedness shall find, A place in the heart that truth shall win. Ecclesias who have preached the false ideas, Shall be ashamed what in life they have taught, Their scheming lore shall forever cease, The light of truth shall bring their fruits to naught. Autocracy is doomed to pass away from earth, Aristocracy with its idle scheming plan, Plutocracy with all its evil dearth, Shall be removed in the Father's glorious plan. This triune evil in false ideas of life, Is sustained by anti-Christ in evil snare, Shall perish, no longer mar the earth with strife, No longer shall Ecclesias preach its hellish fear. 10 W BEHOLD, T MAKE A"LL, THINGS NEW" The world that was, with all its evil dearth, Is giving way to the world of peace to come, the fierce war of nations now on earth, Shall be the means for man to have a happy home. Home blessed in wisdom of God's love, With everlasting life to bless its hearth, Sustained by grace, in the true ideas above, Fulfill the promise "Peace, good will on earth." These are the teachings of truth and love, That Jesus taught, our pathway here to shine, Our Father's purpose is, all sin to remove, Bestow upon man, fruits of live divino. The nations shall awake to do the Father's will To bless its families all, in truth and love, Heaven's peace to bless, the promise to fulfill, The heart of stone from man, He shall remove. Long ages the earth has suffered in false ideas, Through kings and rulers sustained in life, By Ecclesias annointing in false ideas, To rule the people in evil strife. Their daring, cruel rule of life, Shall be destroyed, earth shall have peace, With Heavenly wisdom the nations now are rife, The kingdom of truth and love shall seize. The words of Jesus, they are our light, They are our guide to conquer evil snare, They shall comfort the nations this dark night, Shall lead mankind, the Father's wisdom share. "BEHOLD, I MAKE ALL, THINGS NEW" 11 His words and works shall puige the earth, Of false ideas with its scheming lore, Shall be the means to banish evil dearth, In the Father's true ideas death shall be no more. In everlasting life man's mind shall here live, This is the promise of Jesus' loving word, Within our heart, the germ of life shall give, Blest in the Father's love in truth accord. "If a man keep My sayings, he shall never see death/' These are the words of Jesus that shall bless us all, That shall remove the false ideas, its wrath, "Man shall never die," is the Heavenly call. The nations shall be the Lords and of his Christ. The kingdom of Heaven shall come on earth, And shall bless man in the power of Christ, Shall live Eternally, in Heavenly mirth. These are the promises that shall be fulfilled, The earth in glory shall blossom as the rose, The Father, the principle of life, hath willed; Man shall be free of false ideas, woes. The darkness on the earth that now prevail, Shall soon be turned to day of glorious light, And man through its healing rays, shall avail, To live for ever more in truth and right. Democracy of the world, God shall use, To remove autocracy and its cruel strife. No longer shall its evil scheme abuse. Nor shall it longer destroy human life. 12 "BEHOLD I MAKE ALL THINGS NEW" Our nation's flag of Liberty, is unfurled To save the nations of earth, in peace to live, Restore its amity, throughout the world, With might of truth, Eternal victory give. We hear the cry of nations now at war, Pleading for existence here to live, The cruel works of evil shall soon be o'er, God, our Father, shall Democracy victory give. Our nation is created, true ideas to bear, Its fruit of righteousness shall remove the sin That all the people of the earth shall share, The blessings of true life to win. The sword of autocracy with its cruel hate, Has been lifted up to conquer earth, In false Idealist's scheming state, To further its power of evil dearth. The call of democracy, to smite this evil sword Is the call of Heaven sweet harmony, Fulfill the promise of the Father's word, To restore on earth tranquility. "He that lifteth up the sword, must be killed by the sword," Are the warning the Spirit of God did give, Man shall receive power to fulfill His word, To fight for peace and harmony to live. True men shall awake, false ideas to remove, They shall smite autocracy sin, Establish on earth in wisdom and love, Freedom for all forever to win. "BEHOLD, I MAKE ALL THINGS NEW" 13 Freedom to live In the Christ of God, Freedom to love and to bless, Freedom to dwell in truth's abode, Freedom, true life to possess. Forever to live in peace on earth, Forever abide in God's word, Forever enjoy true wisdom's worth, Forever one with the Lord. This is the fruit the nations shall win, Its people be restored to life, No longer shall false Idealist sin, Cause the earth to suffer from strife. Rejoice all ye people of earth; rejoice! Your day of salvation is here, Times of refreshings, with Heavenly joys, Shall bring to us all Heavenly cheer. Fruits of False Ideas The world is full of darkness, In false ideas of life, The people love and lifeless, Are lost in evil strife, The war and its commotion, Fill all with evil fear, They are lost in hell's creatioa, To fiendish deeds adhere. Man left the true creation, He made his heart a stone, He knows no true emotion, He gropes through life alone. To guide them they have chosen, Vile cunning men to lead, With hopes that they might loosen, A better life to heed. These leaders work their cunning, Are organized for pelf, The masses seek to winning, Honors for their self. They trust in vile tradition, They twist the word of God, They go straight to purdition, In false ideas abode. Long ages the world have suffered, The masses of mankind, Their honest aim been pilfered, To suit their leaders mind. The priestcraft of all nations, Their life have filled with ease, Have caused through their contention, Its wealth and comfort seize, 14 FRUITS OF FALSE IDEAS 15 The day of false idealist, Is coming to a close, Who grope the world in hellish mist, In toils of death repose. The selfish arms of rulers* In the nations of the earth, They fill the people with their curse, Of fear and evil dearth. The light of truth and equity, Is shining, man to save, Remove the false iniquity, To save him from the grave. Democracy is awakening, The nations to restore, In the life of recreating, With blessings of love in store. Our Father who is in Heaven, Will give His peace to all, Fulfill the promise given, To bless in heavenly call. The words and works of Jesus, Are now a light to shine, His presence now is with us, To make the world divine. True men now are awakened, To lead the people all, Away from paths that blackened, In false idealist fall. The people all shall glory, In the love of God adhere, Who in His truth and mercy, Shall bless all nations here, 16 FRUITS OF FALSE IDEAS A glorious time is coming, All men and beasts shall be; Blest in the light that's shining, Its healing rays shall see. The glorious truth of Jesus, Shall remove the curse of war; With heavenly love shall bless us, Vile nature to be no more. The cleansing of the nations, Will first take place on earth; Remove the condemnation, Remove autocracy's dearth; All fiendish men as rulers, Shall be cut out from life; No longer cause to suffer, The nations in evil strife. The promise it is given, That men, both great and small; Their sorrows shall be riven, Prom death to life recall. The times of sweet refreshing, From the presence of the Lord, With healing streams a gushing, Fulfill His promised word. Our Saviour, He will lead our way, To realms of pure delight; He'll turn our dismal night to day, In democracy's glorious light. The earth shall sing with gladness, Life's prospect that's in store; When man shall cease his sadness, Be alive for ever more, Isms and Schisms of Anti-Christ Isms and schisms in false ideas of life, Are a menace to man is fraught with evil strife; It fills the mind with doubts and fear, Makes life a gloom no hopes to cheer. This is the condition of the earth today, The enemies of truth in wild dismay; Are struggling for mastery to control mankind, Thru vicious deeds in false ideas of mind. In foolish arguments, in schisms galore, Are lost to reason their creeds adore; Each claim they have the easiest way, To save mankind in truth they say. They rely upon traditions of man, They ignore the truth of the Father's plan; They make a discord of what Jesus told, For pelf and honor their soul have sold. Their arguments and doctrines they are far, From the teachings of Jesus, what they are; Their theory of doctrine are a conglomeration, Jesus never taught in such was salvation. 'Tis not what the body does that brings us salvation, 'Tis the change of mind into true creation; The body is governed by the soul within, The mind of the Father is the means life to win. "Let this mind be in you" are the words of Paul, Who gave no thought in falsehood's call; 'Tis the mind of the Father in Jesus did dwell, That's the means of salvation, in truth to be well. ISMS AND SCHISMS OF ANTI-CHRIST Those blest in true ideas of life, Shall conquer the power of evil strife; No longer concerned over traditions of man, They adhere to the truth of the Father's plan. They abide in the vine, its fruit they bear, The kingdom of heaven its life they share; With Jesus annointed in wisdom above, Their life is absorbed in the Father's great love They do not concern what traditions do say, They are one in the spirit of the Father alway; They do not rely on the teachings of man This does not lead them to the Father's great plan. The words of the Saviour alone is their guide, In truth of the Father to always abide; Who warned them to evade the evil traditions, And lose not the way to the Father's salvation. Abide in me, my words to believe, This is the condition truth to receive; Repent the falsa ideas of mind, Is the way the Father's truth to find. He never spoke of His birth or death, To be the means for man to be in the truth; His body bore the fruit of love, In action to his living thoughts above. The way to salvation is to change our mind, Ask, seek, knock, is the means to find Salvation from sin in false ideas of life, Salvation from anti-Christ's evil strife. ISMS AND SCHISMS OF ANTI-CHRIST 19 This is the plan of our Father's salvation, Repent in our thoughts false ideas creation; This is the only means we can find, To establish within us the Father's true mind. By grace we are saved in true ideas of life, More than conquerers we shall be over strife; One with the Father in Jesus to be, This is the salvation mankind soon shall see. No longer shall anti-Christ with its schisms galore, No longer the earth be subject to war; It shall be removed from the nations of earth, False idealist no longer shall further its dearth. This is the promise the Saviour did give, New heavens and new earth for man here to live; In life everlasting, in truth they shall shine, The families of earth be made all divine. No longer shall fruits of false ideas, In autocracy's power the nations to seize; Aristocracy and plutocracy are doomed to die, Who are the weapons in anti-Christ lie? No evil shall harm in the day of the Lord, Mankind shall be blest in the truth of His word; The nations shall rejoice, forever shall be, One with the Father through eternity. Anti-Christ and Its Deception Thy very nature now is known, Thou art false in word and deed; Thy venomous spirit it is shown, Thy life in evil seed. Thou has ruled the worrd with tyrant hand, Thou hast bled the people's heart Hast killed all those who dared withstand, Who lived from thee apart. The fruits of evil thou hast here, Has caused the nations all To suffer from thine hellish fear, In thy cunning, scheeming call. They have felt thine iron hand, That crushed their life away; Thy evil power in every land, Done in thine evil day. The spirit of truth now makes it known, What thou art here in life Thy evil ways shall all be shown, Thy cruel vicious strife; Religion is thy camouflage, To hide thy evil shame; No words in any language, Can describe thy very name. The hypocrites that Jesus met, The language to them ascribed, For all true mind shall not forget, How well their life described. More so in thee, True God defamed, Our God of love and life; For thou hast in thy life proclaimed Him God of evil strife. 20 ANTI-CHRISTDECEPTION 21 The Father who is our very being, Our very soul and life, Thou hast made a stupendous being A fiend in evil strife. "Our Father" whom Jesus taught us say, According to thy word, Is not a Father, in such evil way, Such life true nature can afford. Thou dost teach God lives on high, The only way for man to know, Is through your creed here to draw nigh, Heaven's future life to show; What vicious scheeming, all for pelf, All for ease of life and gain; All to glorify thyself, All for this the masses slain. The day has come, the words of life The words of truth and love, As told by Jesus, reveals your strife, Your false ideas shall move, The day has come when camouflage, Shall not hide your evil name, The spirit of truth doth now engage, The hearts you once did maim. The promise is that all shall know, The truth shall make us free; Your cruel viciousness shall show, Your life in truth does not agree. The true idealist you have killed, His fair name you have harmed, God's promises shall be "fulfilled, The earth by you no longer charmed. The Evil of Anti-Christ An-ti Christ are those who believe, The traditions of false ideas, Its fruits of error they receive, That mars the true ideas; They know not love that Jesus taught, They abide not in the vine Their life in errors ways are fraught, They know not truth divine. The time is here and they shall know, What falsehood they are teaching, The Spirit of truth in them shall show, The errors of their thinking; They'll know how far from truth have gone, They'll know their foolish ism, Has no power to depend upon, No hope in evil schism. The words of truth that Jesus taught, Are far from what they are teaching, The Father's true ideas he brought, In them are not abiding; They see in words that Jesus spoke, No promise of new creation The true ideas they all revoke, They preach hell's condemnation. Our Saviour spoke of love and life, Right here on earth its blessing, To remove from man the evil strife, New heart in Him creating; They claim that all mankind must die, To own the heaven of Jesus, In traditions of men they all rely, If we don't believe they curse us. THE EVIL OF ANTI-CHRIST 23 We must believe their hellish creed, If we want heaven hereafter; They are in error thoughts indeed, The meaning of truth to alter. 'Tis done in false ideas of mind, 'Tis done in evil scheeming, In truth of God we all shall find, The errors of their believing. They, themselves, shall know ere long, What falsehood they have taught us, They shall know where they belong Misapply the words of Jesus; They must believe and shall believe, That God so loved the world, That all the nations shall receive, In the flag of peace, unfurled. Our Saviour did not once declare, That death would bring salvation That heavenly blessings we would share, As taught in false creation; He taught us to abide in him, Believe me, "shall never die," Notwithstanding, ecclesias whim, We must die to 'never die.' What isms schisms do we find, In anti-Christ believing, What conglomeration in their mind, The fruit's of evil scheeming; "I am the door, I am the way," Our loving Saviour told us, Abide in me to live always, This is the truth of Jesus. 24 THE EVIL, OF ANTI-CHRIST But soon this anti-Christ shall see, What evil mind they have, They shall be known the heavenly ways, See no merits in death and grave; No power but the truth of God, Shall annul the power of sin, Believe and abide in truth's abode, Everlasting life to win. All nations soon in truth shall be, Enjoying heavenly blessings, Eternal life they all shall see, In truth its power receiving; Our hope of heaven is in our heart, The Father's life within us, From His great love, shall never part, These are the truths of Jesus, Organization in Anti-Christ In organization anti-Christ are formed, Claiming humanity thereby are reformed; In conflict they are with truth of our Lord, "Come out from among them," is the truth of His word. No reformation can come from such ideas, That fosters in scheems mankind all to seize; Such as is in anti-Christ's vicious lore, The wealth and honor in life they adore. With boastful words claim truth of God, While their minds in false ideas abode; Their leaders, a scheeming set of men, Catching the weary with their bold amen. God doth not deal with organization, The life of our Lord is the true direction; To acquaint ourselves with the Father's love, The only means to be in truth above. The parable of "the tares" gives us the guide, In organization we are not to abide; "Abide in me" are the truths of our Lord, The wheat class are those faithful to His word. When boastful men with bold acclamation, Declare to the people they have the salvation In schemes and contention, beware of their sin, All they are after is self-honor to win. They have nothing of truth to offer mankind, They have not the merits of truth in their mind; To cry, "Lord, Lord," is no means for salvation, Shall never bring men into true creation. 26 ORGANIZATIONS IN ANTI-CHRIST The words of our Lord are words of salvation, Truth of his mind removes condemnation; Removes that which offends in organization, Removes anti-Christ's loud acclamation. The great war of nations now on the earth, Is the fruit of anti-Christ in evil dearth; They have ruined mankind in ages gone by, The day of their judgment to remove them is nigh. The faithful in Christ, His truth now they see, The doom of the ecclesias of anti-Christ to be; Dissolved into oblivion forever to stay, No longer on earth their evil shall slay. Their boastful ecclisias claim they can win, The families of earth from the power of sin ; When they in themselves are blinded to truth, Their mind filled with hate in language uncouth. The boast they can bring to man truth from above, They claim they dwell in the Father's great love; But Jesus has told us, "Beware of the scribe," For honor and wealth the masses they bribe. Anti-Christ has thousands of organizations, All claim the best way to obtain salvation; All claim the Father's great love all their own, The greatest of light in them it is shown. They control our birth, our marriage, our burying, Good job for the dead is the Lord's true saying; "Let the dead bury the dead," "Follow thou me!" These are the truths the faithful now see. ORGANIZATIONS IN ANTI-CHRIST 27 Follow the Saviour is the way to be sure, From schemes of the ecclesias our soul to abjure; The haven of rest from power of deception, That anti-Christ offers in its false salvation. The masses of humanity soon they shall be The deception of evil of anti-Christ shall see; Their ecclisias no longer to further their way, In torment as done in their past evil day. The ecclisias of anti-Christ are deceptive through life, They have caused the dissentions among us in strife; Their long holy face shall not save them from wrath, God has condemned them for their hatred of truth. For any to write the words I write here, In ages gone by would go to hell sure; And the cruelest mode they would use they say, Would be warning to others their actions to stay. They are shorn of their bluffing to do any harm They no longer have power the masses to charm; The people have turned them away from their life, No longer the earth to rule with their strife. Now they are busy great wealth to procure, They scheme all they can their existence make sure They are to be pitied such weakness possess, Deny in their life God's truth to confess. The power of anti-Christ on the masses they had, Was given them through vile statesmen they made; See how the truth removes all their schemes, No longer shall men believe on their themes. 28 ORGANIZATIONS IN ANTI-CHRIST They are the has beens, no longer have power, To rule in the nations in evil to gather; Our Father has awakened great minds in the earth, To remove forever ecclesias vile dearth. All nations of earth shall be in God's love, Conform all its families in truth from above; See the great struggle in anti-Christ lore, No longer the nations their doctrines adore. The day of restitution is here to stay, Our Father in mind shall bless us always; He'll teach all mankind to live and to love, Bring blessings of truth on earth from above. We shall not be troubled with anti-Christ's lie, Its power of deception shall forever pass by; Humanity all shall live in true life, That will remove all that offend in cruel strife. The struggle among us on earth today, Is the means all power of sin pass away; Remove from the heart the deception of sin, Life everlasting in our God we shall win. The promise of our Father is ours for aye, No longer to fall into sin by the way; Restored in the mind of our Saviour to live, This is the promise our Father doth give. Anti-Christ's True Nature" In the days of Jesus false idealist was rife, In religion binding themselves in evil strife; The same today, they have left the word of God, Their whole reliance is in false ideas abode. The members of the churches who are in false ideas of life, Are anti-Christ, are steeped in evil strife; The ecclesias they engaged to preach, they seek to win Those like themselves, who are steeped in hypoc- racy sin. This class is found in business world for gain, They leave a trail of vicious cruel stain; They use the church to hide their evil shame, A selfish, scheming class, seek mankind to maim. This class of evil men, they know not true life, Their very being is steeped in evil strife; A cunning mastery with no respect for love, They live a life far from truth above. The different denomination, they maintain, A class of men steeped in evil shame On Sunday meet in church with vicious eye, Seeking whom to devour in thoughts that lie. To further their wicked schemes, they belong, To different secret societies to lean upon; Their heart is narrow, full of viciousness, Their aim in life is to curse rather than bless. 30 ANTI-CHRIST'S TRUE NATURE They exercise what little love they have, Toward themselves in selfishness to save; They care not for the people of the earth, They love to bring on them their evil dearth. This is the fruit of anti-Christ in them all, Who joins each other in any selfish call; They never train their mind to love and bless, Their evil narrow creed they in life confess. This power of anti-Christ shall soon be destroyed, No longer shall ecclesias evil mind be employed; To fool mankind, its prosperity on the earth, No longer shall they its families fill with evil dearth The light of truth that Jesus taught, Shall bring their vicious mind to naught; The ecclesias they employ shall die, No longer fill the earth with wicked lie. They shall not fool the masses as they have done, The light of truth shall remove them every one; They must accept the heavenly life and love, And exercise the same in truth above. That is the purpose of democracy on earth, Remove the power of false ideas dearth; To bless mankind in wisdom, grace and love, Restore in them the truth of God above. "False Ideas Shall Be No More" False ideas with its scheming lore, Shall trouble nations of the earth no more; The truth of God shall banish all its dearth, Shall bless the nations with heavenly mirth. Our heavenly Father's purpose is, To save the nations in heavenly bliss; Remove forever all false ideas, Make known to all His truth to seize. Statesmen and politicians who in life, Are Scheming in selfishness and cruel strife Shall be cast to oblivion there to stay, No longer shall their wiles lead men astray. The men who aspire to govern man, Must conform to truth of the Father's plan; Must show in their heart their zeal for right, Must walk through life in heavenly light. No blare of trumpets, no red light fire, Shall be the means the earth to inspire; The heart in truth must be to shine, The blessings of love in life divine. Note those who cling to false ideas, How one by one their power shall cease, They'll find no place for evil thought, Their mind must change, in wisdom fraught. The nations of the earth shall be, United in the Father's love, to see; The truth, life's pathway here to shine, To know the power of love divine. 32 FALSE IDEAS SHALL BE NO MORE Autocracy shall rule on earth no more, Aristocracy, their cruel vicious lore; Plutocracy's evil is doomed to pass away, No longer shall their evil work be here to stay. Earth shall have peace, is the promised word, As taught in the mind of our Saviour Lord; No vicious man shall find a place, To harm the families of our race. They have had their days of evil here, They've used their power in hellish fear; Make slave of man, God's precious being, On earth no more evil to man shall bring. The Father's plan is to save the earth, Remove forever all evil dearth; Unite the nations in truth above, The peoples home be blest with love. The earth shall never, never more, Be subject to false idealist lore; The Father the principle of life within, Shall remove from man the power of sin, "The False Idealist" In false ideas man in life, Has made himself a fiend; His heart is full of evil strife, Away from truth is weaned. Filled he is with ills and woes, In selfishness is lost Unkind he is wher'er he goes, In life he is a frost. He thinks of self alone in life, Wealth is his chief delight; To rob and cheat his heart is rife Defies all truth and right. His soul is dead, his heart is cold, He thinks of naught but pelf, In all his days he seeks for gold, To satisfy himself. This is true of false ideas, In it man forgets his God Forgets in life the true ideas, He dwells in vile abode. For fellow man forgets to live, His heart is cruel and cold; He loves to rob rather than give, He loves the most his gold. This is a false foundation, That man in life partakes, His life is contamination, Of sorrows, griefs and aches. He is lost to all fair dealing, He knows no acts that's kind His soul and heart are failing, In fruit of evil mind. 34 THE FALSE IDEALIST He cloaks himself in isms, In narrow whims and creed; He glories in false schisms, To satisfy his greed. He cloaks himself to appear, A man of true ideas, In his heart is vile with fear, And cold as zero freeze. He joins the church to appear, As a man who walks with God; But in his heart is filled with fear, He dwells in false abode. His hobby is, believe in hell To all who don't believe, The future state the churches tell, Its tortured life receive. The world today is wiser far, Than the churches he belongs, They are nearer true, and blessings share, More joyous happy throng Hypocrites soon shall Be, Destroyed, no more on earth, The nations all, truth shall see, Removed all evil dearth. "God moves in mysterious ways" To those in false ideas, God's kingdom is nearer every day To those in true ideas. The false creation now on earth, Shall know in this great war, Shall have no power in heavenly mirth, Its* evil -to he no more. Awakening of Mankind The Spirit of "Our Father," Shall awake mankind to life, In the folds of truth shall gather, Away from evil strife; He calleth now the nations, In truth and love devine, In the power of new creation, In Liberty's light to shine. The world that's now in sorrow, Shall be in love and life, No longer evil borrow No longer suffer strife. The Spirit of Our Father, Shall guide the nations on, To win the heavenly favor Its truth to lean upon. That's why the earth's on fire, To rid the dross of sin, To remove all false desire, The heavenly truth to win; The nations in democracy, Shall win this cruel war, It shall destroy autocracy, No longer earth to mar. Hope of joy and pleasure, Shall come to earth to stay, Enjoy the heavenly treasure, That turns our night to day; Our noble men are fighting, To lay the enemy low, To gain the promised blessing In wisdom here to grow. 36 AWAKENING OF MANKIND The families of the earth, Shall heavenly blessings share, When false idealist's dearth, No longer nations snare. The death of their vile nature, Shall be to bless mankind Bestow on every creature, The heavenly Father's mind. The nations of the world, Shall be the Lord's in love, The flag of freedom now unfurled, In harmony with truth above ; To bless the world of mankind, Bring peace in all their land, In words of Jesus all shall find, Liberty's peace command. Evil Shall Disappear The power of evil shall soon disappear, No longer the nations to fill with its fear; The power of truth to the nations shall give, In freedom of life, its families to live. These are the promises "Our Father in heaven" Will bestow upon man, his sins be forgiven; In truth be blest to know His love and life, Forever remove autocracy's strife. None of the promise our Father did give, Shall be withheld, true life man shall live; The nations of earth, in truth all shall shine, To spend all their days in graces divine. The nations of earth shall be ruled in love, All of its families in truth from above; The words of our Saviour shall be their guide, In life everlasting, all shall abide. The Doom of Plutocracy "Go to now, ye rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon you. "Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are moth-eaten. "Your gold and silver is cankered, and the rust of them shall be a witness against you; and shall eat your flesh as it were fire; Ye have reaped treasure for the last days. "Behold the hire of the labourers who have reaped down your fields, which is of you kept back by fraud, crieth; and the cries of them which have reaped are entered into the ears of the Lord of sabaoth. "Ye have lived in pleasure on the earth, and have been wanton; ye have nourished your hearts, as in a day of slaughter; ye have condemned and killed the just, and he doth not resist you." James 5:1-6. Plutocracy are those made powerful by wealth, Usurping their schemes in vicious stealth; A product of false ideas of mind, Uncouth in nature, cruel and unkind. All for self "the public be damned" Is the policy in life they have jammed; With cruel deeds to rob and cheat The meek and humble of mankind they meet. Humanity in general they love to crush, Make slaves of all in their mad rush; The filthy lucre is their god of power, The wealth of the world themselves to gather. THE DOOM OF PLUTOCRACY 39 Cruelty is the developed trait of their life, Have corrupted the nations in evil strife See them today in power of might, To further their selfishness this evil night. Ecclisias have dolled them with power and grace, To slave all those who are meek of our race; ''Obey your masters," is their familiar quotation, The scriptures they use in evil flirtation. The scheming of plutocrats is known of the Lord, Who declares their evil shall no longer afford, To enslave the people, their cruel way Shall banish from earth to oblivion to stay. What sorrows, what troubles, what anguish of heart, Have caused the people in the gain of their mart; They consider themselves far superior in life They see in the masses fit subjects for strife. When the poor seek shelter in organization, The plutocrats are mad, they better their condition. They denounce their Unions as anarchists bold, While themselves are organized the masses to hold. Thus the earth is encumbered with bold evil men, Who make of the masses, their homes in a pen; Their animals are housed far better in life, Than men who serve them in cruelty and strife. Know ye, ye plutocrats your days of vile snare, Are close to the end, your lives are made bare; The truth of our Father shall remove your sin, The families of earth in democracy shall win. 40 THE DOOM OF PLUTOCRACY The false ecelesias upholds your sin, They quote in the scriptures the masses to win; You have dwelt in vile actions man to enslave Your riches nor glory you no longer can save. Democracy is not fighting autocracy alone, Your viciousness is included in the war that is on; Aristocracy as well receives its death blow, Forever vile nature from earth all shall go. Man is the highest creation of God, With spirit and mind in wisdom's abode; The meek ones are those whom you make your slave, Usurp through power that anti-Christ gave. Democracy to you is a farce on the earth, The idea that man is born equal at birth; Your nature is exalted in you through vile bluff The Father of nations shall your evil rebuff. Know for sure the day of restitution is here No longer ecclesias in anti-Christ fear Shall force on the people to be your slaves, Your vile nature will soon be put in the grave. The heart within man that causes vile dearth, No longer be powerful to hurt in the earth; Vile nature shall change God's love to obey, In truth of being to live all their day. Thus soon the end of your evil shall come, The masses of mankind shall be blessed with a home; Not tortured and burdened in your evil strife, But supported to live in blessings of life. There is nothing can stop the power of love That the Father has ordained in truth from above; Mankind shall be saved to live here on earth, Be they ever so humble or poor at their birth. THE DOOM OF PLUTOCRACY 41 The ecclesias of anti-Christ shall be shorne of its power, Their hypocracy shall torment the masses no longer; Their heart of stone shall be changed to love, Conforming their being in wisdom above. This is the victory democracy shall give, Remove your vile nature for all here to live; In peace and contentment in true life to shine Be made one in truth and wisdom divine. Love your neighbor as yourself is the law of life, Not "Servants obey your masters," in evil strife; Ecclesias in false ideas shall know the truth, The light of heaven in democracy forsooth. The masters in evil of false ideas shall know, The truth o'ur Lord in democracy bestow; They shall be ashamed how they have treated man- kind When evil is removed no longer in their mind. Ecclesias have used God's word in shame, They have boldly supported you in evil claim; The power o'er the humble ones to be your slaves Quite to the contrary God's love to all gave. Democracy shall remove all evil strife, Man shall live in peace throughout his life; He shall be blessed in wisdom of God Forever to dwell in heaven's abode. Plutocracy shall know the law of life to live They shall no longer man their viciousness give; They shall deal to others as they would be dealt by, Their very existence shall in justice rely. "The Earth's Jubilee We are in the day God shall save the nations, Establish within the heart of man the true creation; Remove forever the power of evil dearth The day of restitution is here to bless the earth. Truth shall work within the mind of man Revealing to all the Father's glorious plan; The darkness of false ideas shall be removed, Its evil power in the nations be destroyed. The true idealists are now on the throne of love, Shall lead mankind to grace and truth above; The mind of the Eternal shall bless the mind Shall teach all people to be merciful and kind. The overcoming that Jesus did while here on earth, Is the very means for us to remove evil dearth; To be the means for all to enjoy eternal life, Far from the reach of false ideas' strife. "Our Father," who is our very being in love Shall save all people in His truth above; Shall save the nations from evil fear, Shall reveal His blessings in heavenly cheer. Jesus walked the path of life here below Revealed the blessings He shall on us bestow; He overcame, as we must, to conquer sin, Within our heart the power of truth to win. His works, His words, they are our guide, In Him alone to win, we must abide; His very presence is here to lead us all, Enjoy the blessings of the Father's call. THE EARTH'S JUBILEE 43 We cannot turn away from the call of love, The Father's truth is with us to remove The power of darkness that has cursed our life, It shall remove forever the false ideas' strife. Watch! and we shall know the power within, That shall destroy the power of cruel sin; Our Father within us in wisdom, grace and love, Shall save us all in harmony of truth above. The nations saved to dwell forever more, The name of Jesus they shall all adore They shall praise Him for His faithfulness, Who lived for us in tEe Father's blessedness. He lead the way for us, Eternal life to win, He showed us how to conquer the power of sin; His works and words are our guide while here, That shall destroy the spirit of evil fear. We all shall live to love and bless The true ideas of life we shall confess The fruits of love shall within our soul, Conform our being to the heavenly call. 'Ye Will Not Gome Unto Me that Ye Might Have Life" John 5:40 Through long ages man has suffered from strife, His heart is lost to hope of eternal life; Within him is the source of all his ills, In false ideas his life with error fills. He left his first estate of love's creation He sought his own ideas that brought corruption His very being is filled with evil stain, His days are those of sorrow, grief and pain. When born into the world man as babe is pure, "For of such is the kingdom of heaven," assure; 'Tis the mind of man that brings the woe, That makes of him the truth of being a foe. The false ideas form within that leads man astray, That removes from him the hope in truth to stay; He schemes through life with others of same mind, Between them they are at sea each in trouble find. They grope along in darkness full of fear, They seek in their surroundings a place to cheer; The weaker mind the greater ones abuse, Make of their lives in slavery to use. This is the fruit of false ideas misdeal Develop themselves in selfishness with zeal; That cause the earth today being filled with sin, With evil sword the nations of earth to win. Jesus, our Saviour, while here in life Foretold to us of such evil strife, Portrayed to us the viciousness of false ideas Who also showed us the way to true ideas. YE WILL, NOT COME UNTO ME 45 The parable of the Prodigal Son makes it clear, How sin of false ideas fills man with fear; Corrupt his being that once was love, A cast away from true ideas above. When sin did work within there came A remorse to him when he saw his evil shame; He remembered his tender loving days of youth, That awakened new life in him forsooth. He found himself steeped in false ideas of life Within him, without him, naught but evil strife; He changed his mind, "I will arise," and rose, To return to the Father, in love and life repose. This is the condition of the world of man today, In cruel vicious sin his families all doth lay; The power of reason shall be given soon to all, For all shall return to the Father's heavenly call. The fruits of true ideas shall be restored on earth, Shall remove from all its families the evil dearth; Jesus the true idealist of life is here To restore us all in the promised heavenly cheer. Mankind has begun to reason, why this war? Why the earth is on fire in autocracy's lore; They shall find that in false ideas it is done, The power over the nations the false ecclesias won. Democracy the true ideas of life of heaven, Comes down to earth in the promise given Nations shall become nations of the Lord, Conform their laws to rule in love's accord. 46 YE WILL NOT COME UNTO ME All families of the earth shall be given, The heart, the mind, to live in peace of heaven; Restored, the earth shall be in true ideas, For man in narrow selfish life shall cease. The darkness that now prevails upon the earth, The power of false ideas in vicious dearth Shall be removed, man in truth shall shine, For all shall live forever in love divine. The spirit of the Father shall remove From man all evil, his soul to be in love; No longer to be lost -in power of cruel strife, For all shall live in harmony of eternal life. This is the fruit of true ideas the earth shall share, Among mankind the Father's loving tender care; Prepare the minds of all to think aright Remove for aye the power of evil might. The great war here on earth shall do away With the power of autocracy no longer stay; The false ecclesias with their cruel creed, No longer find lodgment in vicious greed. Mankind in all the nations shall have the truth, Shall live to enjoy its life in God, forsooth; The sufferings of mankind has been great, The fruits of evil in false ideas estate. The teachings of Jesus in His work and word Is to show man back to live in truth accord; Repent from evil ways in false ideas, To know himself from error's ways to cease. YE WILL NOT COME UNTO ME 47 Man must change his mind from error's thought, Conform his life to the truth that Jesus taught To love God with all his heart and mind, To love his neighbor, be merciful and kind. To hunger and thirst for truth and righteousness, To be meek in life of blessedness; This is the power that love of God shall give, Power of truth in eternal life to live. Man no longer shall fail to live in love, His very being shall be one in truth above; The Father shall be with him, is the promise given, Restore to life as shown in the Prodigal son. False ecclesias rejected the truth of our Lord, They cast away the blessings of His word; They choose their own ideas in scheming lore, That is the cause of this vile autocracy's war. Man was permitted to choose his life to live, Notwithstanding the promise our Lord did give; "Ye will not come unto me that ye might have life, They choose rather their own ideas in evil strife. The masses of mankind is not so much to blame, It is the false ecclesias that has brought the shame; Autocracy, aristocracy, plutocracy received their life, In their scheming false ideas in vicious strife. These are the ones the Lord shall remove from earth, No longer shall they deceive the nations in evil dearth; Their heart of stone shall be made a heart of love, Their life conformed to truth of heaven above. The True Idealist's Hope When I seek the path of wisdom, In my Saviour's loving word, There I see the heavenly kingdom, Grace to live in truth's accord; In his spirit I am strengthened To o'er come all evil snare, In the power of truth awakened, That removes all fear and care. True and faithful is my Saviour When I call His name to me, He doth guide me in heavenly favor, Precious truth of God to see; Glorious plan to save the nations, Conquer power of evil snare; Showing forth the true creation, All mankind its blessings share. Who hath promised earth the blessings, That shall make all terrors cease; Destroy autocracy's cursing, Heavenly truth mankind to seize. These are times of restitution Prom all power of error's might, Man shall know his true creation, He shall walk in love and light. Come, O, blessed consolation, See the earth is sore distressed, See the power of false creation How the people are depressed; Nothing can relieve the cursing Of autocracy's wicked lore, Nothing but thy love and blessings Can remove this cruel war. "The Soul of Man 3 Calm is our life when we abide In the truth that's taught by Jesus, There is nothing in this life beside, That can peace and blessings bring us. He is our way to immortal life, Where spirit of wisdom dwelleth; Removes from us all evil strife, Whose soul in Him abideth. The soul of man is all he has That brings him any blessings, The soul of Jesus shall compass The dross of life removing; The body it is frail to meet Is weak through condemnation, Without the soul is not complete, Is minus of true creation. The purpose of our Saviour's life, Is to make known the blessing, Without the soul we are in strife And fraught with evil cursing; He spoke the words of life to all, The Father's great salvation Who alone awakes the soul, Removes sin's condemnation. The soul awakens when it hears The voice of true creation, The false with all its evil fears Shall in it find destruction. The thought of truth shall guide our way, Our mind and soul awakening, The body shall in truth's array, Be restored in recreating. 'Ye Shall Know the Truth" Je*** The world is full of sadness, The work of evil mind They know not truth that blesses, No light to guide can find; They seek not truth of Jesus, On traditions they rely, They refuse the light He gave us, The truth of God deny. To know the words of Jesus Is light to our patkway here, They are the means to bless us They cast away all fear; His truth shall bring us freedom From the snares of false ideas, The fruit of heavenly kingdom, Is found in true ideas. "Ye shall know the truth," The Lord of Love declared, The families of the earth forsooth Shall share the feast prepared; "The truth shall make you free," These are the words of life, The nations of the earth to be Relieved of cruel strife. The words and works of Jesus Will lift mankind in love, He has promised He will bless us, With wisdom from above; The earth, now lost in darkness, Shall have the light of day, Restore us all in sweetness, Made free to love alway. 50 "He That Overcometh' To him that overcometh false ideas of life, Shall have power to be immune from evil strife; He shall know the truth in the paradise of God, And dwell in everlasting life in love's abode. He that overcometh shall not be hurt of death, He shall be saved from the power of evil wrath; His mind and soul shall be saved in true creation No longer subject to evil condemnation. To him that overcometh shall eat of the tree of life, No longer shall he suffer hunger in false ideas' strife; The name of Christ, of God, to him shall be given, This is for all who enter true ideas of heaven. To him that overcometh shall be given to rule the nations, Power to bless mankind in re-creation; His very being shall shine as the morning star, Shall enter the gates of truth that's now ajar. To him that overcometh shall be clothed in white His very being shall be full of light; He shall lead mankind in the Saviour's name, Remove from earth the power of evil shame. He that overcometh shall own the Father's love One with the Saviour in the blessings of truth above ; He shall have power to write the new name on all, Who enters into true ideas in heavenly call. 52 "HE THAT OVERCOMETH" To him that overcometh shall be blessed in life and love, Upon the throne of truth and wisdom from above; The families of the earth shall know the Lord is here Those in true ideas give blessings their heart to cheer. The fruits of love in true ideas of life, Shall heal those who suffer from evil strife; On the throne in glorious life shall people all Be blest in love and life of heavenly call. "As I have overcome" our Saviour He is our life and love, Who walked through life in truth of heaven above; His very life and love is ours always here This is the power to banish false idea's fear. To reign with him upon the throne of love, To lead mankind in harmony with truth above- This is the promised place for all to be Who overcome the power of false idea. "As I have overcome" so shall the faithful be, A mighty power of the Father's love to see; Remove the darkness from all upon the earth, Remove forever the power of evil dearth. "As I am sat with my Father," so shall ye be, Restore the nations of the earth in liberty; Make plain the paths to nations of mankind Make plain the Father's gracious loving mind. 'The Kingdom of God is Within You" Without is the turmoil of evil strife, Within is the peace of God, Without is the source of mortal life, Within is the true life's abode; This is the source of our being to live In the principle of life within, That the Father created and freely give, To overcome darkness of sin. Without is the source of mortal strife, Within is the power of love; Without man lives a mortal life Within he is one from above. "The Father and I are one" to shine In the world the Truth to show, Immortal and glorious in life divine, In wisdom and love to grow. The true ideas are the words of life That Jesus spoke in His day, Made known to the disciples of evil strife, From their heart to cast away; I am the way to the mysteries within, Of love the Father gave, Abide in Me and thou shalt win, The way your soul to save. Within the Lord was the power divine, That did the work of love, To remove the darkness in truth to shine Be one with the Father above. In secret place, our Father within, The source of life to live Makes whole our life, remove all sin, An immortal name to give. 54 "THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS WITHIN YOU" Face to face with the Father to be All the days of our life, His wisdom of love and truth to see, That conquers evil strife. Face to face the promise is given For us the Father to know, Who dwells in us and we in him, As onward in truth we grow. Away from the power of evil sphere Is the guide the spirit gives, Away from the power of tremulous fear, In sound mind blest to live. This is the assurance to those who abide, In truth our Saviour declare, The Father through our mind doth guide, Immortal life to share. The words of Jesus, they are life and love, A gift from the Father within, His mind in us all fear remove, That cleanses us from all sin. 'Tis the words and works of Jesus alone That can satisfy us here, To abide in Him, His promise own, Will bring us heavenly cheer. The Parable of the Virgins The mind of the true idealist shall rule the earth in peace, Forever false idealist's power within mankind shall cease; The mind of man in true ideas shall be blest with love, Bear fruit of life in harmony with truth above. The mind of Jesus shall be the ruling power In heavenly wisdom the nations of earth to gather, The eternal mind of the Father it shall give Power to all mankind in harmony of truth to live. The parable of the virgin directs us to the light That shall remove the power of false idea's night; To remove the sorrows and pangs of this cruel war, Remove from earth autocracy's power to be no more.

"Prince of Peace 1 Jesus Christ is our Father's Prince of Peace, He'll teach all nations false ideas to cease; He will establish in the hearts of statesmen all The power to conquer autocracy's vicious call. His spirit tells us "there shall be no more On earth the false ideas' cruel wicked war;" He'll teach mankind the way of true ideas, No more be slaves to anti-Christ's false ideas. When here on earth He taught us ways to life, He showed us how to overcome evil strife By the guidance of His spirit we shall win, No more be subject to false ideas sin. He that lifteth up the sword must be, Killed by the sword, no more in cruelty; Of false idealist, no longer shall it mar the earth, The truth that Jesus taught shall remove its dearth. He will prepare the nations for His love and life, He will cleanse the heart of man of cruel strife; Give each a heart of flesh in truth and love, Conform them to the Father's law of truth above. See His truth now shedding forth its light, Remove forever the false idealists' night; Speak peace to all the families of the earth, Restore their hearts in blessings of heavenly mirth. His presence now is with us in love divine To receive His blessings, in truth to shine; His life is ours to live in peace and joy, If faithful, we shall His presence here enjoy. FRINGE OF PEACE 67 Dark is the night before us, fierce the storm, To overcome all evil our heart in truth to form; Fierce the struggle in the nations of the earth To remove forever autocracy's cruel dearth.

Man shall conquer power of false creation, Shall be blessed in truth's salvation; The promise gift that Jesus told while here Grace of Our Father within us all to cheer. "Gome Unto Me All Ye that Labour " When Jesus spoke these words of cheer He found mankind was lost in fear, The fruits of false ideas in life, Gave forth its power in evil strife. The scribes and pharasees in evil shame, In religious power of truth, they claim Made hard the life of those they ruled, The masses of mankind they fooled. Jesus showed the world the cruel sin, The scribes and pharasees were in; That far from God and truth they were, No blessings of heaven in life did share. The false ecclesias of this day, In traditions errors through life they stay; They claim the teachings of truth and life, Instead their lives are full of strife. The truth of God as Jesus taught Shows those who are in error's thought; Directs us from such evil snare, To have no part their teachings share. Come unto me all ye that labour, To Him alone we must gather; His presence here on earth today Shall give us rest our heart to stay.

"Our President's Message to Congress " Apm 2nd, 1917. The message to congress our president gave, Bears truth of love and life, From power of autocracy our nation to save Remove its cruel strife; This vile menace has drawn the sword To conquer all the earth, With hellish means it doth accord, To spread its evil dearth. Our noble nation shall withstand This cruel enemy of man, The power of democracy shall command, In the Father's glorious plan; The nations saved in truth and light The promise the Father gave, That shall remove from earth the night, Its families all to save. Our flag of liberty is now unfurled To bring the nations peace, Destroy autocracy from the world Its power of evil cease Democracy is now here to stay, All nations to restore, That brings to man the glorious day, His life with peace adore. The nations of the allies shall fight Till the victory is won, Democracy is the power of might, For each and every one; Our president with clear mind Directs us on our way, Eternal truth of heaven to find, Its peace on earth to stay. 80 OUR PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE TO CONGRESS Our nation's force is awakened, Its flag is now unfurled, Its army in truth is strengthened, To save the wounded world; They hear the voice of freedom In liberty's truth and light To bless with heavenly wisdom, Remove autocracy's might. The old world now is passing, The new is here to stay, Autocracy with its scheming Forever to pass away; The people's voice is the voice of God, In truth to rule the earth Shall dwell in peace in heaven's abode, Made free of autocracy's dearth. The promised restoration Has come, the nation's all, Are led by inspiration The way of peace to call; Remove the night of sorrow, Bring forth the blessed day, The nation's all to follow, The light of truth to stay. Our nation is the vanguard To crush from off the earth, True liberty its worth regard, To vanquish slavery's dearth; Onward, on to victory, Truth's might is our shield, Restore on earth heaven's harmony, Sweet liberty's life to yield. "Peace of God is Free to All" Peace of God is free to all It passeth understanding Of false idealists' vicious call, It brings life everlasting; The peace that Jesus taught in life, Is power of truth and love That shall destroy all evil strife, Its deception to remove. My peace I give, to all mankind, I AM, is the meaning of our Lord, It is the power for all to live In true ideas accord; No anti-Christ knows God's peace, They are lost in false tradition The fruit of strife through life they seize, That brings them condemnation. The peace of God shall bring us rest, Not as the world now giveth, In spirit of truth all shall be blest A promise to all that loveth; In truth of God we shall attain The power of peace within, That shall remove all evil stain, Eternal life to win. We part from peace of God this life, When we seek our own ideas, That fills us with cruel vicious strife That's enmity to true ideas; We loose the power of the Father's love, In anti-Christ believing, Are far from prospects of peace above, Its fruits of love receiving. "Carnal Mind is Enmity Against God" In false ideas of mind evil is sustained That drives away the very truth of God, Carnal nature with us is maintained When we dwell in anti-Christ abode; To cast away the evil, we must atone In the works and words of truth beliere, As taught by Jesus, seek him alone, For us its power of life receive. Carnal nature dominates man through life, When he chooses his evil ways to live, It brings him sorrows in vicious strife When his heart to sensuous thoughts doth give; The promise mind of truth in Jesus' word, Is far from those in sensuous sin, Their very being do not accord, The promise blessings God's peace to win. To cast away the false ideas we must, To obtain the promise blessings due to man The light of truth within shall remove the lust, In the promise gift in the Father's plan; Bring blessings to all the people of the earth, This is the promise now fulfilled to all, That shall remove the carnal nature's dearth, Our Father's purpose in the heavenly call. "Abide in me" are the living words to note, That Jesus spoke that brings man to life To cast away the mind in traditions thought, That'll remove from all the evil strife; "Abide in me," those loving words of Jesus They shall make us clean of carnal mind, Shall restore the power of life within us, Shall establish our thoughts in the Father's mind "Christian Pacifist" Man who fails to see his duty in this war Who stands by unconcerned who shall win, Who sees no evil in autocracy's wicked lore, Such an one is benighted in false ideas is in; Religion in this life will avail us none If we fail to see the promises God has given, To restore the nations in truth to lean upon, Restore mankind in light of truth of heaven. God has purposed to bestow His life and love, He wills that truth for man shall rule on earth- He wills to bless the nations in truth above, Restore its families from the power of evil dearth; Jesus told us of the conflict in this our day we see, He told us of the power of evil that would fill the earth, And promised that the nations from its power shall be free, Its families blest in the spirit of rebirth. Are we to expect some miraculous power? To restore the earth from the viciousness of sin The nations in heavenly blessings gather, Some power outside of man the evil power to win; "The kingdom of heaven is within you," Jesus said, And those in true ideas these truths now see Within, the heart of man the power is made, To fight the evil, heaven on earth to be. In false ideas of mind autocracy made its power, Developed through anti-Christ in vicious lore The sword is drawn by them the earth to conquer, Which is the cause of this vicious, cruel war; Those who love God with all their heart and mind, Shall know the power to conquer evil is within, Their very being is governed in truth's command, From power of evil the nations of the earth to win. 84 CHRISTIAN PACIFIST "He that lifteth up the sword," God's spirit foretold, "Must be killed by the sword," by whom such power? By all who love truth in democracy's precious fold, Through it our Father shall the nations gather; For us to stand by, let the enemy proceed To make the nations of the earth all its own, In the truth of our Father we shall not succeed Nor the blessings of life our Saviour has shown. This is important for us now to know That the Father's works His love from within, And those who have sought in wisdom to grow Shall know in democracy we shall win; It is the means our Father shall give To awaken all the families of mankind, In wisdom, in grace, in love all shall live, This is democracy's fruits in the mind. It is through the nations our Father shall work To bless all the families of the earth, Not through organizations where evil doth lurk Shall remove false ideas evil dearth; In anti-Christ the world has suffered from sin, Through it man has left the truth of God They who claim to have salvation man to win, Has no salvation who are in false ideas abode. Failing to see that democracy is true life, Is a sign we are in false idea's sin The sword of democracy shall remove the evil strife, Of autocracy's destructive power within; The nations in democracy is the salvation of man, God's spirit of truth is its guide, Fulfilling the promise of His glorious plan For man in true ideas to abide. "Socialism" Socialism in truth shall govern the mind, To bless in wisdom true love here to find; Socialism in false ideas of life Brings to mankind the power of cruel strife. Our Saviour, a socialist, gave to the earth The power of wisdom to remove evil dearth; He taught us the way to blessings of life That removes from our midst all evil strife. To be a true socialist, love's fruit must be given, Our mind must conform to the Father in heaven; This is the way for mankind to be blest This is the way to be in eternal rest. The words of our Saviour are the guide to our mind, The true ways of living for all here to find; It shall remove autocracy's vile power The nations of earth in peace here to gather. It shall remove aristocracy's vile scheme, It shall destroy plutocracy's evil theme; No longer their viciousness have power on earth To mar the true socialist born in rebirth. True socialists live in the power of love, Their mind conformed in wisdom above; They shall fight to destroy all power of sin, The nations of earth true life here to win. They shall not wrangle as the false socialists are, They shall fight to remove autocracy's war; They shall align themselves in the mind of the Lord Their life shall conform in wisdom's accord. 8G "SOCIALISM" Their fruit shall bring peace in the nations of earth When they have destroyed autocracy's dearth; This is the purpose of the war of today To bring to the nations heaven's peace here to stay. The socialists who wrangle in vicious lore, Give aid to the enemy in autocracy's war; His mind is benighted, in venom he lives, His actions are evil the fruit he now gives. There can be no neutrality in this cruel war, In the evil autocracy who sheds human gore; Ashamed we should be to hold such a mind As some false socialists in the nations we find. Democracy is the mind of our Father in Heaven, In democracy is the promise of peace that was given; To bless all the families of earth with His love, Create in the nations true harmony above. A principle of life we are righting for here In wisdom and grace of our Father to adhere; Autocracy has no power such life here to give The vilest of nature is the power they now live. Down with the tyrants, must be the cry of us all Up with the nations in democracy's call; Prepare for mankind in heavenly peace, Vile nature from our midst forever to cease. "To Make the World Safe for Democracy" The nations shall know Thee, our Father, Shall know that Thou art our life That Thou will its people gather Away from autocracy's strife; The world that is now on fire Is the work of its evil shame, Is created through selfish desire The governments of earth they now claim. The nations of earth they now suffer From the power of autocracy's sin, In fruits of false ideas they gather, That errors of life doth win; To those that abide in the Saviour, They shall walk in the newness of life The nations soon they shall gather To win o'er autocracy's strife. Thou callest the nations to banish, Selfishness all from the earth Thou wilt cause all its power to vanish, From their midst all its dearth; 'Tis Thy love and truth that shall conquer The power of autocracy's strife, 'Tis Thy love alone that shall gather The nations in democracy's life. Thy spirit of truth is now working In the hearts of those who abide In wisdom and grace now proclaiming, To remove all error aside; To make the world safe for democracy, In liberty the nations to stand, United to destroy autocracy, Its power of evil to withstand. 87 88 TO MAKE THE WORLD SAFE FOR DEMOCRACY Thine arm, our Father, shall sustain us To remove from our midst evil stain, It shall be our strength as with Jesus To remove all our sorrows and pain; A fearful time that is coming, The struggle upon earth shall be great Cruelty with autocracy is appalling, The evil their mind did create. Those who are now faithful with Jesus Shall know what is coming on earth, He has promised that He will be with us Remove from our midst evil dearth; He will lead us to be faithful forever, This evil of autocracy remove The nations of earth here to gather, Restored in His wonderful love. We know when we trust Thee, our Father, When we serve Thee in unity of love, In blessings of truth we shall gather, The nations in harmony above; Our great men shall trust Thee, Our Father, To guide the nations to life, To make all earth's families to gather Away from autocracy's strife. Great blessings conies to those waiting On Thee, Our Father in Heaven, Destroy Thou wilt its vile cursing In the power of Thy truth Thou hast given; Thou art in Thy love ever mindful To bless us all here on earth Sustain us by grace to be faithful, Remove from all evil dearth. "To France" (Dedicated to our brave boys) To Prance our brave boys are marching, With hearts firm and true as they go, With "Old Glory" proudly waving, That sets our hearts all aglow. To France our soldiers are marching, There to meet man's cruelest foe, That makes hell on earth most appalling! To fight for world's freedom they go. To France, the earth's noble nation, Who has suffered these many years, At the hands of a false creation Of might, that kills without fear. To France, where the fiercest fighting The earth in all ages has known, Our boys with courage are marching, With Old Glory more glory to own. To France our brave boys are marching, To France, our own dearest friend, Once her boys in our army lay bleeding, And dying in liberty's wend.

Why should I fear though the world turn against me Father, since thou has clothed me in wisdom divine What in the world can derange my heart from Thee, Since Thou hast purpose me in love to be Thine.

Nothing on earth can harm me, my Father, Thou art the source of wisdom divine; Abide in the vine, its love I shall gather, In this alone, I can always be Thine. The Saviour has taught me to serve Thee, Thee only, Abide in the vine of truth that is love; Thou are the Hunsbandman, tender in mercy, Thou wilt from me all evil remove.

Naught can molest me while I am faithful, Father a principle of life Thou art to me; I only must trust Thee, ever be mindful, I am Thine here and now and ever shall be. Truth Shall Save the World The sadness of the world today Its turmoil in evil strife, How scheming men in false array Are destroying human life. There is much more than man can do, To alleviate the suffering Nations on nations with might accrue, To remove the evil cursing. There is One who can and will remove, The plight of sin and sorrow, Our God with might in His great love Shall destroy this evil ego. Who is within us all through life, A principle that will conquer His purpose is, to remove all strife, Remove all deeds of anger. His Mighty truth and love shall win The nations back to favor, His life within shall cancel sin That man in falsehood gather, This means all those in false ideas Shall be cleansed of evil scheming, They shall be saved in true ideas, In the spirit of recreating.

TRUTH SHALL SAVE THE WORLD 93 Men in fearful minds are wondering When the end will come of dearth, Of such there are some awakening See not far the heavenly mirth. They can feel their God within them, Work the nations to His fold Where His love and truth shall bless them, His mercey He will not withhold. They have sized up the enemy Now arrayed with armies bold, Truth and freedom is calling many To destroy the evil fold. 'Tis the battle of Armageddon, 'Tis the fight to conquer hell, False idealist its creation, Shall receive its death knell. Men of courage in true wisdom Shall the earth save from its foes In the folds of truth are welcome To remove earth's cruel woes. Guided by our heavenly Father Creating in man a truthful heart, In His folds of love shall gather, All the nations to never part. Man shall fight his own salvation Shall restore himself in life, Forever live in true creation, Free from power of evil strife. Power of truth shall win the nations, Working through the heart of man This is God's way of salvation In His promised, glorious plan. The Blessings of Inward Truth The blessings of truth it is coming, To rescue the nations of earth, Its light our pathway is shining, To conquer autocracy's dearth; To remove for all time its surfdom, Establish heaven's peace for us all, To give to all nations the freedom, To live in the heavenly call. Man in his mind shall awaken To live in the truth of our God The power of evil shall be broken, Man shall dwell in wisdom's abode; These are promises given to Jesus By Our Father in the Spirit within, Whose presence with mercy shall bless us, That makes us immune from all sin. The guidance we have of His presence, That dwells within our soul, The spirit of love the essence Of life in Him to be whole. We are in the days He will bless us With life everlasting to live, Fulfilling the promise to Jesus, The Father within him did give. We shall receive His law of love Within our being ne'er to part, He shall restore us in truth above Within our mind and heart. No longer shall it be necessary, Man his neighbor to teach, For the truth shall be continually Within all humanity's reach. THE BLESSINGS OF INWARD TRUTH 95 No more ecclesias, no more scribes, In false ideas to teach, No more chance to make use of bribes The wealth of the nations to reach; Pure inwardness shall be in us all, Pure desire to live in God's love, All languages of people to call In harmony of truth from above. "As the light cometh out of the east, "And shineth even unto the west," "All people from the greatest to the least" In blessings of peace shall attest. The power of truth shall be, in us, To guide every one in true love, Fulfilling the promise of Jesus, All that offend He shall remove. "If a Man Keep My Sayings He Shall Never See Death" John S:S1 No one in false ideas of life Can comprehend this saying, That Jesus spoke who's mind was rife, To show to man life's blessing, No thought of birth or death of His, To give mankind the power To obtain Eternal life, its bliss, For the mind to live forever. The mind must be in true ideas To understand this promise, No power of thought in false ideas Can comprehend the premise; Jesus spoke the words of life, The Father within Him directed, He spoke in conflict to mortal strife, Eternal truth protected We must believe, in Him abide, In the vine of truth, to know The meaning of His word, aside, That error thoughts doth show We cannot mix the false with truth, And try to comprehend We must deny all thoughts uncouth, The true ideas attend. Jesus spoke the words of love, Made clear to man its meaning; He spoke of life in truth above, Proclaimed to all its blessing, The truth of Jesus we shall know, Within our heart and mind, The Spirit of the Father will show, The power of love to find. IF A MAN KEEP MY SAYINGS 97 Love was the keyword of our Lord, Where love is, there is life, Search and we shall find His word In Heavenly theme is rife, His works and words alone is our guide, To be at one with God, In Him alone we must abide, To live in Heaven's abode. The promises He gave to man, The blessings to obtain, We must conform to the Father's plan, Its mysteries made plain, The first step to be taken is, Repent, means change our mind, This we must do to obtain the bliss, True life and love to find. When Jesus came to earth He found Man in exceeding sin, In false ideas His heart was bound, In mortal thoughts were in, Death stalked upon the earth, No peace, no blessings here, His soul was lost in evil dearth In chains of deathly fear. He emphasized through His word The blessings due to man, When in His truth they shall accord, To know His loving plan, His birth nor death avails to give, Man's right to life in God, In true ideas of life did live, Remove man's sinful load. 98 IF A MAN KEEP MY SAYINGS When we believe and abide in Jesus, That moment we shall know The meaning of the truth He brought us, Redemption His life doth show, When false ideas attempts to claim, His death on Calvary brought us Redemption from all evil shame, Are not the words of Jesus. ''My words are truth, My words are life," He spoke while He was living, His death not meant to conquer strife, To remove man's unbelieving, To His disciples He made it clear That they should believe His word, He came from God in truth sphere; Taught them in truth accord. When anti-Christ assumes to claim That death brings man to life, They should repent their evil shame They teach in cruel strife, This is not our Saviour's loving word, He spoke of life while here, And man to live in truth accord, Must discard their evil fear. Anti-Christ has much to blame for sin, Who preach in false tradition, Their mind must change for them to win The life of true creation; They are the curse of earth today, They teach man false creation, In evil strife in false array They foster condemnation. IF A MAN KEEP MY SAYINGS 99 Examine ecclesias, what they teach, What meaning they give to life, The truth of Jesus do not preach, With true ideas at strife The essential truth they leave alone. Are steeped in false ideas, Traditions of men they lean upon, Discarding true ideas. False ideas shall perish from the earth, Traditions shall pass away, No longer shall its evil dearth Torment man's life alway, The words of Jesus they are life, Are meant to save mankind, Its purpose is to remove all strife, Man true ideas to find. This is the Father's glorious plan To restore in love the nations, To recreate the life of man, In true ideas creation; This is the meaning of Jesus' word, "Mind of man shall never die," And when the earth in truth accord, True ideas man shall apply. These are the teachings of our Lord, New life the nations give, Kings and Rulers in one accord, In Democracy's truth shall live, The great war of the nations here, Are means to destroy all strife, The Heavenly promise is to cheer Mankind with Eternal life. 100 IF A MAN KEEP MY SAYINGS "If a man keep My sayings" He shall never see death," The fact of His believing Removes the evil wrath, 'Tis the fruit of false ideas That cause the earth its sin, 'Tis the fruit of true ideas, New life the earth to win. There is nothing safer for us Than to believe our Father's word, The true word told by Jesus, New life to all afford; Discard the false ideas, For the truth that now is due, Our Father who within us, Our hearts with life renew. All selfishness shall banish In the true ideas of life, Its evil guilt shall vanish With its power of cruel strife, We are in the glorious presence Of Jesus Christ our Lord, He will give us of the essence, Of life that's in His word. All people of the earth shall know The truth that Jesus spoke, Within their mind true life shall show, In peace and joy shall walk, The Father's Spirit will create New life in all to bless, The nations shall in true estate, The Father's life possess. 'With the Mind I Serve God" Paul No thoughts in evil can restore our mind, To the truth of God its blessings find; By the mind in true ideas alone Can we our future rest upon. Through the mind the false ideas did work, Within our being in viciousness did lurk; Through evil mind the nations are now at war, Through the mind of truth shall be no more. Through our mind our Father now is working, Prepare the nations to receive His blessing. Through the mind all families of the earth Shall rid itself of autocracy's dearth. Mind of man is mighty in creation When thoughts are tempered in love's devotion; A mighty curse is mind in false ideas, Has robed the earth of heavenly peace. Through the mind -we shall redeem the earth; In heavenly thoughts remove its dearth. Through the mind of man the nations all Shall be restored in the heavenly call. The mind of man shall forever live, Through the mind God shall His blessings give, Through the mind the nations all shall shine, Through the mind shall live in life divine. Through the mind we exist in our very being, Through the mind the truth of heaven are seeing, Through the mind at one in the Father's mind, Life everlasting here we shall find. 102 "WITH THE MIN'L* I SERVE GOD" Through the mind we have failed in the heavenly call, Through the mind the curse has filled us all; Through the mind in truth shall forever be, Enjoy the blessings of earth's jubilee. Through the mind the false idealist taught His teachings in cruel vicious thought; Through the mind of Christ we shall be free To serve heaven's truth and harmony. Through the mind the statesmen, in all the nations, The Father shall establish restitution. They are the ones through whom the Father will Bestow upon mankind His promise to fulfill. Through the mind of Anti-Christ the nations all Are now at war in autocracy's call; They fostered the enemy of mankind In cruel, selfish, viscious mind. Through the mind, false ecclesias their evil done, The power of wealth they now posses have won Through the mind shall see their evil shame, Who have robbed our God of His loving name. Through the mind of man God shall bless The families of the earth in truth confess; Through the mind of man God shall work His love, Direct his thoughts in blessings of truth above. 'Tis the mind of man that has cursed the earth, Man and beast now suffer from its dearth; Through the mind of man remove its cruelty, The nations to be in peace and harmony. "WITH THE MIND I SERVE GOD" 103 The mind of Jesus is lifted up in power To draw all men in truth and love together; This is the work of grace in his promised word, Through our mind we are to live in true accord. The healing of the nations is the plan The power of truth shall work through mind of man. The great mind of the universe, His purpose is, To bless mankind in truth and Heavenly bliss. The mind of Jesus is our guide this night, Blending our mind in Him shall bring the light. The blessings of the promised love and life Shall forever remove all evil strife. The mind of Jesus is working in the nations To restore their families, in true devotion, To serve the true ideas of life he taught, To share the heavenly blessings in pure thought. Through the mind, the Father shall remove all dearth; Through the mind, man shall enter into heaven's rebirth. Mind of man, within the mind of God, Will be the means the earth to dwell in truth '3 abode. No longer shall false ideas in evil mind Corrupt the earth, its people, with thoughts un- kind; The power of evil thought shall be destroyed Forever, from the nations of earth be removed. The thoughts of Jesus shall guide our way, In wisdom, grace and love to always stay. His mind within our mind shall make us shine, To live forever more in life divine. The Doom of the False Ecclesias Ecclesias, who are doomed, are those Who preach in false ideas, Traditions of men they rather choose, Far from the true ideas; They have organized in numerous creeds To fool mankind for pelf, They rob the people to suit their needs, Their riches gain for self. They cause dissension in homes of love, Through those they have control, Sweet blessings of nature they remove, To preach the adamic fall, The fall they preach is for honor gain, They make a fiend of God, They fill the people with evil stain, Dwell not in truth's abode, They do not preach that "God is Love" Except on limited scale, They claim, to own, the home above, We must believe their tale, That God has hell for all the bad Who do not believe their creed, Their tales of woe are very sad, Who do not give them heed. A cunning, scheming set of men Who runs their churches all, The weak they capture with bold "Amen," For their support, to call, A mixture of conglomeration, The teachings they give through life, They glory to preach condemnation, Their heart is filled with strife. THE DOOM OF THE FALSE ECCLESIAS 105 They are far from teaching "God is Love" As Jesus taught through life, They do not lead to truth above, They are blinded with evil strife; They seek through life, the honored place, Where riches do abound, And curse all those of our race In creed, with them, not bound. The freedom of truth they do not know, The words of Jesus spurn, Their teachings, their hearts doth show, In words of fire that burn, No foundation, in fact, have they, To preach their hellish creed, No single word did Jesus say That justifies their meed. In Jesus' words are warning given, To avoid traditions of man, For such are far from the kingdom of Heaven, No such teachings had he a plan, He taught, "That God so loved the world" All its families shall save, The banner of truth is now unfurled, That preaches the truth He gave. The world's on fire to remove the dross Of wicked men who cling To false ideas of cruel cross, That man, salvation bring, The kingdom of God is within, all, The families of our race, The spirit of truth in each will call, False ideas to have no place, 106 THE DOOM OF THE FALSE ECCLESIAS They're doomed ecclisias, one and all, Their slavery shall be no more, The earth shall be rid of error's fall, No longer false creed adore, The love of God shall cover earth, As waters cover the sea, When creed shall vanish with its dearth, In truth mankind shall be. The spirit of God shall bless the earth, As Jesus taught in life, His truth shall remove all evil dearth To bannish cruel strife, No place like hell was ever known Outside of Anti-Christ, The teachings we must lean upon, Is the truth of the loving Christ. What consternation it will be When ecclesias shall be shorn, Of its power when all shall see The falsehood they have borne, What riches, honor, they have gained, What slavery they have made, What millions peoples they have pained, What vicious game have played! Their day of doom is close at hand, To fool earth's people more, The awakening shall be to understand, True love and life adore, The teachings of our Saviour Lord, Shall guide mankind to know The meaning of His work and word, In wisdom's ways to grow. THE DOOM OF THE FALSE ECCLESIAS 107 The words of Jesus, they are life, They are love to bless us here, His truth shall remove ecclesias strife, Its vicious hellish fear, Who'll soon be banished from the earth, Autocracy as well, All selfishness with its evil dearth Shall meet its death knell. Rejoice o earth, the day is here, To rid mankind for aye, Remove false nature's evil fear, To oblivion, there to stay, The words of Jesus they are life, They are love to bless us here, His truth shall banish evil strife, Remove all hellish fear. Autocracy with its evil mind, Aristocracy with its scheming lore, Plutocracy, alas! they all shall find, Its master shall be no more, Ecclesias have fostered with zeal and care, The enemies of mankind, The bounties of the earth to share, Created in vicious mind. The masters of slavery, that is known, Shall be banished from the earth The nations shall the truth be shown, The blessings of Heavenly birth, The spirit of truth shall be in man, In love to bless each other, This is the purpose of the Father's plan, In truth the nations gather. 108 THE DOOM OF THE FALSE ECCLJSIAS This is the meaning of Jesus' word, This is the truth He taught, The nations shall be in one accord With Heavenly blessings fraught, Seek among the ecclesias, and see If such a promise is given, They are far from truth and equity, Are far from the kingdom of Heaven. The world's on fire today to move The power of false ideas, Our Heavenly Father in truth and love Shall bless in true ideas, All men are born alike in life, Each to enjoy love's peace, None was born to evil strife, But born God's truth to seize. The days of false deception Is coming to a close, The day of restitution Is here in love's repose, The words of our Heavenly Father Will have no void return, He will soon the nations gather, All dross of mind shall burn. Our mother earth shall blossom, Give forth her plentitude, All men shall in their bossom Bear love and gratitude, They shall live like Jesus lived on earth, Who was our pattern here, Enjoy the blessings of Heavenly mirth, Each other in truth to cheer. Democracy Democracy is the world's salvation, From false ideas of life, The power of the new creation That shall remove all strife; 'Tis the means our Heavenly Father, To bless with peace the earth, In wisdom of truth to gather, Remove all evil dearth. 'Tis the mind that was in Jesus, Who taught us the Father's will, In His words and works did show us, Our life with blessings fill, 'Tis the mind, the inspiration, To make us true to God, 'Tis the fruit of the new creation, Life and love in truth's abode. The nations of the earth shall garner, The true ideas of life, Their families all to gather To conquer evil strife, Through the mind the Father's working, The day of grace to give; Through the mind of man the blessings, In true ideas to live. Mankind is now awakening To claim their own to live, Democracy is the blessing The Eternal mind doth give, From the least unto the greatest, Shall know the truth within, The Father's love the assets, Its fruits all men shall win. 109 110 DEMOCRACY The earth today is on fire To remove the dross of sin, To remove autocracy's power, The Father's love to win; This is the means of blessings That'll accrue to all mankind, With life and health refreshing, Restored in Heavenly mind. Man lost the true ideas When he choose his evil ways, In his mind the false ideas Brought sorrows all his days; The power of evil is wanning, Its day will soon be o'er, Democracy is surely coming To remove earth's cruel war. The nations all both great and small, , Shall know the Father's will; The hearts of statesmen in wisdom's call Shall remove the nation's ill, "Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done," Shall be the prayers of all; In Heavenly wisdom, rely upon, In freedom, their people call. Peace and good will shall fill the earth, No longer shall be strife, Nations of people in Heavenly birth Shall live in the Father's life; This is Democracy's purpose here, To acquaint man with his God, To bless each other with Heavenly cheer, To dwell in truth's abode. (Love Of God For All People) Universal Truth Heaven's truth is universal, Is intended for every man, In love and life his family call, This is the Father's plan. No creed or isms have patent right, To claim the Truth it's own; God's love and life in wisdom's might, Is for all to lean upon. No claim can organization Make of the truth now due; The means of heaven's salvation Is to all and not to few. The Father deals with nations To manifest his light, In the spirit of the new creation, To remove earth's cruel night. All isms and creeds in anti-Christ Shall bannish from the earth, The teachings of the loving Christ Shall remove its evil dearth, The awakening shall be in all mankind Made clean and pure within, Be blest in the heavenly Father's mind, Its true ideas to win. The mind that was in Jesus Shall be our guide this night; His presence, it shall lead us To walk in heavenly light. No longer in organization Of anti-Christ to believe, The Father shall own the nations, Their families all receive. Criticism on the Theory of Anti-Christ "Nothing but the Blood of Jesus " 'Tis the mind of our Father in Jesus, That saves mankind from sin, 'Tis His words in truth that bless us, Our way true life to win. Jesus Himself never mentioned, His death availed for man, He oft His disciples cautioned, To abide in Him as one. "My words are truth," He oft declared, My words are life to all, To Him no other means appeared, To save us from the fall, He told them of the Father within, He doeth the work of grace, No other means for us to win, No other hope for our race. He told them that the spirit of love Shall lead them through to life, ' To "abide" in Him in Truth above Is the means to conquer strife. No thought of Calvary, or its cruel deed Had entered His words of truth, No thought of shedding His blood, indeed, Avail us, from sin, forsooth. He oft reminded His faithful few, That soon from them He would part, Not mentioning of death, their life to renew, But the dwelling of His truth in their heart, "Abide in Me" rung through their mind, The words He spoke while in life, When death appeared in Him, we find Availed not to conquer strife. 112 CRITICISM ON ANTI-CHRIST 113 He came to His own, His own knew Him not, He came, spoke words of peace Throughout His life was faithful, we note, Humanity's welfare to seize, Not so, in shedding of blood, did He, His Father glorify, But in words and works of life we see That brought salvation nigh. He loved to teach the truth of God, While in His veins did flow The blood of life in truth's abode, As up and down, did go, Not once, He spoke of His death to pay, The ransom for mankind, He urged His disciples every day, To note the truth of His mind. The enemies of truth declare today, That in his death, Jesus won, The ransom price for man to stay, Eternal life to own, But Jesus spoke of His depart, His spirit would lead them on, Tarry until thou art in Me a part, In My words, rely upon. Our Saviour made no boast of birth, Or of His death man to avail, To be the means to remove from earth, The falsehood that did prevail. He taught the truth throughout His day, In wisdom, grace and love, This is the means for us today, To obtain our hope above. 114 CRITICISM ON ANTI-CHRIST To believe the words of Jesus will Remove from us sin's strife, This is the ransom of the Father's will, This is the means for life. "My words are truth, my words are life," This is the ransom for all, This is the means that shall make it rife, For us in the Heavenly call. The blood of Jesus availeth none, Except as it flowed through his veins, His life in His Father was "well done" This is the victory that gains, "Abide in Me," says the Christ of God, That, in living Jesus, spoke, Abide in Me in truth's abode, No longer in sin to walk. Jesus, the true Idealist of life, Was faithful to His Father's will; He conquered the world and its evil strife. Our life with peace to fill, To blend our life in His great love Is the ransom for our soul, The only guide to truth above, The way to the Heavenly call. At one with Him will make us know, The Father who is within, The truth in Jesus' life shall show, Us our victory over sin. At one with the Father in Jesus' love, Is the ransom here for all. This is the means all sin to remove, To make sure the Heavenly call. CRITICISM ON ANTI-CHRIST 115 The life that Jesus lived, was peace, Was joy, in the Father within, 'Tis the means for us true life to seize, To conquer power of sin, His love, His truth, His graces all, Are ours if we but choose; His very life, not death, our call, From errors' ways be loose. His days of life on earth were few, He every moment gave, The false ideas of life did shew, From its power man to save. He is the door of life to us all, His very work and word, His living daily was the ransom call, His death no life afford. Repent the only condition He gave, From false ideas in our mind, The words of true ideas he gave, We are to seek and find. "There's none that can come to me, Except the Father draweth;" They are the ones the truth shall see, Are those whom the Father loveth. No sacrifice at all is given Nothing to lose but all to gain. Man returns to the Kingdom of Heaven, As portrayed in "the Prodigal Son." Man lost his first estate in life, His own ideas he choose, Which was false and cruel, full of strife, Eternal life did lose. 116 CRITICISM ON ANTI-CHRIST The blessings in the life of our Lord, Are ours, a light to shine, The way to life in truth accord, The way to love divine, A loving truthful life He gave, In wisdom from above, The human families all to save, In the Father's truth and love. The promise is, all shall know, The truth our Lord did give, The hearts of all shall be aglow, In Eternal life to live. These are the promises of the Lord, That nations all shall be Blest in the wisdom of His word, Its people His truth to see. Jesus died for none, this life to live, He lived to save mankind, His words and works, all doth give, The Father's gracious mind. A principle of life, the Father is, In all His creation here, Without him none could know the bliss, The truth of being to share. The nations all today's on fire, To rid the world of sin, Its people shall in truth aspire, Peace and good will shall win. This was the purpose of our Lord, This is why He came to earth, Fulfill the promise of the Father's word, To remove all evil dearth. CRITICISM ON ANTI-CHRIST 117 He did not come to curse mankind, As anti-Christ believe, He taught the truth of the Father's mind, For us its light receive; There is no condemnation now, Nor none to come to man, His tender loving word doth show, His Father's wondrous plan. In words of Jesus, man is taught The ways to Eternal life; This is what in His life He brought To conquer evil strife, "Nothing but the blood of Jesus" Will not avail us here, We must believe the words he taught us, To reach the Heavenly sphere. Jesus did not claim His Father, God, A stern, stupendous being, Who curse or bless at will, in His abode, As is anti-Christ's conceiving. Jesus said "The Father's within Our very being, a principle of life; He doeth the work" for us to win, All power of evil strife. "I in My Father, My Father in Me," Are the words of life and love, "I in you, and you in Me," Is the truth all errors move, The true idealist believes, as Jesus taught, The words of life to all, Who gave the wisdom to guide our thought In the blessings of heavenly call. Hope of the Faithful Those who love God with all their heart, With all their mind and all their soul, From His wisdom and truth they never shall part, In spirit of love they are whole. This is the power that our Saviour does give To those who abide in the vine, With Him and the Father always shall live In the spirit of life divine. To let our light shine is our duty here, To speak of the wonderful love; The Father, the faithful, he'll always draw near. Our life blest in wisdom above. To those who around us that doubt our word, Through darkness of sin in their heart, We must live every day in wisdom's accord, The light of His truth to impart. The pure in heart has no fear of man, His wholeness is in truth of our Lord. To many this seems a mysterious plan, Live apart from the world through His word. Some think the church is the only salvation For us while going through this life; Our Lord directs us from organization, "Come out of them" for such are in strife. To trust in an organization Is a mark of distrust in our Lord; This is not His plan of salvation As recorded in the truth of His Word. We are to be parted for all time, To claim our right to His love, To attempt to live both life is a crime That keeps us from communion above, HOPE OF THE FAITHP^UL 119 Religion in life not in truth of the Lord Is deceptive and leads into sin. The reliance must be alone in His word, His spirit of love for to win. Alone with the Saviour be our delight, As onward through life here we go, Our daily communion brings us the light That makes us in wisdom to grow. To love our Father with all our heart Is our duty here, to be sure, That error of sin may not have a part With its cunning deceptive lure. No safety at all to any, this life, Apart from our Father's being; His Spirit within us removes sin's strife, When we in His truth are abiding. This is our victory over ills in our heart, Abiding in Jesus in the vine; In the life of Our Father never to part, Our soul in harmony divine. This is the promise, in' truth we shall stand In the presence of Jesus our Lord; In its light of truth its wisdom command, That comes through our trust in His Word. The secret of truth of our Father Is our heart, our soul, our mind; In the essence of life here to gather Victory over sin we shall find. This is the pattern Jesus gave us, Abiding in the Father's great love; This is the victory that blesses Our life to be united above. Answer to Anti- Christ A great, stupendous being is not our God, With power to bless or curse in His abode; He is our very life within us, behold! Is the Eternal truth our Saviour told. The false idealist make of God a fiend, In errors of traditions they have leaned; No blessings, they say, but through their creed, Par from the teachings of our Saviour's meed. God is love, omnipotent, in the universe Ready to give of His bounties in truth to bless; Within us, as our very being, our life, Ready to save us all from evil strife. God is Life, omnipresence, without none can live, In true ideas He will of his nature give; Our Saviour spoke the words of life to all. That leads mankind back to Heavenly call. God is Wisdom, omniscient, in creation; Prepares for all a day of restitution. His power of might within our very soul Shall restore in us the Heavenly call. His Love, His Life, His Wisdom will Restore the nations, His promise to fulfill. He will remove all false ideas of life, Restore the earth no more to be in strife. These are the teachings of our Saviour Lord, "The Father within," true meaning of His word. "He doeth the work" our souls in truth to shine; His purpose is to make mankind divine. ANSWER TO ANTI-CHRIST 121 He has a plan to bring to man salvation; Has appointed in His truth a day of restitution; A day that shall destroy all evil dearth, A day to make glad the families of the earth. The manifestations of his presence shall give life, No longer shall false idealist in evil strife Dwell on the earth to mar the true creation; No longer shall man live in condemnation. We should seek the Father as Jesus taught, Who will bless our life with Heavenly thought. "Thou in me, and I in Thee" are truth divine, Who said: "All mine are thine, and thine are mine." What closer tie do we need,"One with the Father." "I, and my Father are one," in love to gather, Abiding in the vine of truth, "Abide in me," These are the words of life, heaven on earth to be. God so loved the world, all its families shall save, His purpose is to remove death and the grave; Nothing left of false ideas of life, Nothing left of its cruel, vicious strife. This is the promise our Father through Jesus gave, The nations of the earth, its families all to save, No thought of a place to curse mankind Eternally in fire of hell in cruel vicious mind. Jesus never thought of such a place as hell, That anti-Christ conceives, trations tell, God, our Father, never conceived such a plan, His love, His life is the very being of man. 122 ANSWER TO ANTI- CHRIST Man fell away from perfect love and life, He created false ideas that's been his curse and strife. Jesus came to us to acquaint us of Truth Divine And promised man to be in its light to shine. He will save the nations in the Father's name, He will guide mankind away from evil shame, And through the nations he will save us all from death, To live and love forever in heavenly mirth. One with Him in the Father we shall always live; This is the heavenly promise, man to give Freely of his love and life in truth divine, His glorious presence with us in wisdom shine. This is the Kingdom that shall come to earth, There shall be nothing left of evil dearth; Nothing left of false idealist's strife, Nothing to harm the harmony of Eternal Life. Our Father shall lead us in His truth and right, He has purposed all mankind to share his light; He has purposed our being to be full of love, All things that shall offend He will remove. When this great war is over, man shall see His way to live in truth and harmony; Our Father within us in truth that Jesus gave, From error of false ideas the earth to save. "The earth abideth forever," is the word of God, Its families all shall live in truth abode, The power of the Christ shall be in man, To enjoy the blessings in the Father's plan. ANSWER TO ANTI-CHRIST 123 Man's mind no more shall wander in cruel sin, He shall be at one with the Father, Truth to win, Love and life shall be his blessings here, No longer troubled in spirit of evil fear. There shall be given nations peace above, Come down to earth in true life and love; Man no longer find his neighbor in evil strife, For all shall share alike in Eternal life. Live always in the spirit and mind of God, This shall be his status in Truth's abode, Live to bless each other in truth to shine, Live forever with the Father in love divine. Old Glory Our flag is the blessing of liberty to man, The emblem of truth from above; Is unfurled in the Father's glorious plan To restore on earth His love. It's the means to remove autocracy, No longer to ruin the earth; 'Tis the power in God's democracy To remove false idealist's dearth. Liberty is the birthright of our nation, Freedom's true life to possess. Our flag is of the new creation: All men born equal confess. Our Father is here to sustain us, To uphold the truth of its fold; It's blessed with the wisdom of Jesus, His Liberty and love doth unfold. 'Tis the flag that shall save the nations, The vile men of autocracy withstand; Remove from the earth condemnation, All its families in truth to command; Remove all selfishness forever, This is the hope it doth give, In peace and love of the Father, Forever on earth to live. The flag of our country it is glorious, Its motto: "In God we trust;" In deeds of kindness is gracious, The enemy of man it shall thrust. The nations of earth that are bleeding, Our country, its flag now unfurled, Shall list to the voice of their pleading, Remove war's curse from the world. OLD GLORY 125 The great minds in truth in the Father, Shall awake to rescue the earth; No longer the nations shall gather In the power of autocracy's dearth. The mind of the people shall awaken, To remove false ideas of life; The Father in truth He has spoken, Shall destroy all evil strife. Our brave men in Liberty's army Shall conquer the earth's cruelest foe; No longer in doubt shall they tarry, They shall fight to bannish its woe. Our nation her brave men are calling, To save the nations of earth, With "Old Glory" unfurled is now marching, To remove autocracy's dearth. Acrostic Triune Evil in False Ideas of Life Autocracy, vile in nature, steeped in cruelty, 'United to destroy the nations amity, The people of earth forced to submission, Outrageous deeds to hold the nations. Committed by its rule of force, Revengeful nature in its cruel course, An evil power in false ideas of life, Constrain the people in subjective life, Yea, fill them with fear and evil strife. Aristocracy, another blight of sin, Records its selfishness, to win, In corrupted laws, enslave the lands of earth, Selfishness ruling in evil dearth, That glory's to make mankind a slave, Out of its infamous mind, that gave Civilization its ills and pains, Retard the progress of mankind to life, A cruel, wilful men in evil strife, Compel the people in viciousness to remain, Yea, the wealth of nations for itself to gain. Plutocracy, most numerous class, Loaded with selfishness in life, alas! Usurp with might, over the nations of earth, Treacherous schemes in evil dearth, Openly defy the people's right to live, Compel the masses their all to give, Refusing a decent condition of life, Appaling in acts of evil strife, Command the nation's commercial gain, Yea, myriads of people they have slain. These triune evils in false ideas of life, They fill the nations with cruel strife, They are the cause of all the ills to man, Their very life fraught with evil plan. TRIUNE EVIL, IN FALSE IDEAS 127 Democracy is the power of God to man, Elected in the Father's glorious plan; Move from the earth the evil strife, Offer its people love and life; Cancel the power of greed and selfishness, Remove all darkness, in light of truth to bless, A promised day is here when false ideas Can no longer boast its might, Yea, Truth of God is shedding forth its light. "God moves in mysterious ways" To those in false ideas of life, No longer shall they all their days Fill earth with cruel strife; Their day and evil, it is close at hand, God's truth is spreading over all the land; The nations all in unity are rife, Blessings are here in true ideas of life. Democracy, the power is given, Of love and truth, the blessings of Heaven, The promise of the Father's word, Is being fulfilled, man shall afford The wisdom that shall save the earth. Remove all false ideas, its evil dearth, The words of Jesus, they are life to all, They save the nations, in wisdom's call, In mysteries, no longer man shall be, But blessed with love, God's truth shall see, This power of truth, selfishness will move, To bless mankind with heart of love. No longer shall sin's blight appear, To mar the earth with evil fear; It shall be known to man, to live, His neighbor as unto himself to give, Remove from their midst the cause of pain, Selfishness with its cruel stain. 128 TRIUNE EVIL IN FALSE IDEAS Awake, oh earth, and see the glorious plan, To save thee from all evil dearth, The promise words of truth to man, Its families bless in Heavenly mirth. Democracy is the power of truth to win, The people from false ideas of sin; It is the means to remove all evil fear, To recreate in man, truth to bless him here.

Rejoice, ye people of the earth, rejoice! Know in God we live and move and have our being, With hopeful hearts lift up your voice, The truth of Heaven on earth is shining. The promise word to man is given, A heart of flesh, with Heavenly joys, The spirit of selfishness shall be riven, No longer mar the earth, no longer claim, No longer shall its fruits the people maim. The great struggle on the earth today, Is but the means that leads to better day, When grief and sorrow shall be cast away; The fruits of truth and love shall with us stay, Dark and fierce the night before us lie, Great the struggle, the glorious victory to win, The great Mind of the universe is nigh, He will remove all false ideas of sin, The nations shall belong to truth and right, Democracy's sword is lifted in love's might. Meditations of the True Idealist More truth! More love! More wisdom! More of thine image to bear, An abundant entrance to thy kingdom, My Saviour, thy graces to share; Each moment of life in thy presence, Away from the darkness of sin, Each moment enjoying the essence Of life, in the Father within. Impersonal as thou wert, my Saviour, Dead to all things that offend, Alive in the will of the Father As thou wert, its wisdom attend; One with thee, Jesus, forever, In truthful life to be, In the folds of Heavenly favor, A life crowned with glory in thee. An image of Thine in all beauty, A being all absorbed in Thy love, Filled with Thy kindness and mercy, Leading humanity above, Thy life of truth to guide me Along dark pathway this life, Thy spirit within me, make holy And pure from all evil strife. As Thou wert, My Saviour, well pleasing, To the Father who dwelleth within Thy graces of love, my blessings True ideas of life to win; A light in the world of darkness, A way shower to those in sin, Remove from the earth its sadness, Our Father's kingdom to win. 130 MEDITATIONS OF THE TRUE IDEALIST Like Thee, unspotted and pure, Seek only, Thy Father's own word, Thy graces and virtue acquire; A pattern of Thee, my Lord, A spiritual being, incarnated, Transformed from the rudiments of sin; Like Thee, in truth impregnated, Like Thee in wisdom to win. ID the words of life Thou hast given, I know these things I can be, One with Thee, in the Kingdom of Heaven, "Thou in me, and I in Thee," Nothing to part my life from Thee, A promise that's sure to stay; I know, my Saviour, Thou art in m, If faithful wilt remain all my day. "Freely Ye Have Received, Freely Give" "Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give. Math. 10:8. Salvation from false ideas of life Is free to all mankind, Religionist who in cruel strife Have scheemed in evil mind, Have set a money price on love That our Father gives us free, To obtain the blessings from above, Is costly they say must be. The false ecclisias with one another, They vie for power of wealth Are jealous each the one the other In cunning, scheeming stealth; Tis not the welfare of man they care, Whether here or hereafter, 'Tis the wealth and honor they now share, Is the fruit of life they gather. This is not the promise of our Lord, No word of His places value, The gold of earth does not afford To help our life a-new. 'Tis the fruit of organization In anti-christ deceiving, No money value in any nation Can help us truth believing. 132 FREELY YE HAVE RECEIVED The life of our Lord was clean of mart, He taught the people freely To remove the errors from the heart, In truth of being was lively. The thought of wealth and honor gain, Was far from the mind of Jesus, Such evil power mankind have slain, In false ideas vile ego. The plan our Father the power He gave To save from false ideas, Shall deal with nations mankind to save, Through them His truth to seize; No organization shall prevail, Nothing that is offensive Shall the masses of mankind avail, In true ideas to live. The great minds in the nations all Shall bring to earth the blessings, Their truthful life in heavenly call Shall remove the evil scheeming; The nations of the earth shall be In wisdom and grace divine, To give the people truth to see Their path through life to shine. Beware of those who seek for gold, In religious organization, In error's ways their soul have sold, They live in condemnation. The Father shall all such remove, No longer trouble nations, They must conform to laws of love, In the Father's free salvation. Sum and Substance of These Poems The sum and substance of these poems, Are to acquaint man with the truth of God, Whose purpose is to bless our homes Each family to live in truth abode. All false ideas shall be destroyed In the truth that Jesus taught in life, The Father's grace shall be employed To remove from all the evil strife. The societies of earth in false ideas Shall be removed, the nations all Shall be restored true life to seize, Their families blessed in heavenly call. Old things must pass away from earth, "Behold, I make all things new" Our Father's love shall remove the dearth, The heart of all in truth renew. All people shall awake to know The Father's light and truth that shine, The mind of man in wisdom grow Conform their heart in life divine. Affirm the truth that Jesus taught, Our Heavenly Father "so loved the world," His mind, His spirit in wisdom fraught, The flag of Peace that's now unfurled. Those who insist on false ideas To be the truth of Jesus' word Shall be ashamed, their thoughts must cease No longer doubt our Saviour Lord. To picture God a monstrous fiiend, To scare the people in them believe Will find they are not our Father's friend, His truth and love shall not receive, 133 134 SUM AND SUBSTANCE The world of mankind is nearer truth Than all the false ecclesias are, The blessings of heaven are theirs, forsooth, The Father's life and love to share. The mind of false idealists must change Conform to the truth that Jesus taught, Who gave to us in truth arrange, The peace of heaven in life he brought. The ones who believe the truth of God Shall be blessed in everlasting life, ' Their very being in love's abode No more be slaves to evil strife. This is the promise that Jesus gave, The words of truth He did declare The families of the earth shall save In harmony of life His truth to share. Before we can claim the Father's love We must repent tfie false we have, Jesus' pure thoughts in truth above Shall be the power for all to save. Traditions in false ideas of life Benights our mind, our very being It fills us with vile and cruel strife, Brings cruel death the grave its sting. Life and love is truth of heaven, Its peace and joy for us to know Are the promises that were given In grace and love for all to grow. Removing false ideas of life Shall be the power of Jesus word, Remove the curse of evil strife, Restore mankind in truth accord. References Gems of Truth from the words of Jesus.
