UNTO
WHOM SAID JESUS
YE MUST BE BEING BORN AGAIN
By
Apostle E. White
He who professes himself to have been born
again from having physically participated in some form of spiritual ritual,
regardless of its declared legitimacy, is highly deceived by the very thing of
which he thinketh himself to have abandoned; his carnal mind.
For it is not reasonable for one to think,
that the natural body of any man has the ability to lead the spirit that dwells
within it.
Now if it be, that the natural body cannot
lead that part of man from where God is commanding righteousness, which is his
spirit, how then can one think himself to have been born again simply because
of the natural body’s engagement within a natural baptism? Doeth not thou care to
consider such to its end for understanding; that the natural things are served
by that which is natural; and spiritual things by spirits? Therefore, seeing
how man is required to be reborn in order to please God, and that such
requirement is not placed upon his natural body, it leaves obligated then his
spirit with having to fulfill the Lord’s commandment.
How, one might ask, can the spirit of a man
be reborn, seeing how it is spirit and not flesh? For I pray the Lord to grant
thee understanding, concerning my knowledge in this mystery that is now
revealed unto the church. For the birth of a spirit is through the knowledge of
understanding itself to be whatever creature God chooses it to be according to
whatever time he pleases. If one should look, they will see where when the
spirit of John the Baptist was housed within the prophet Elijah, it knew itself
only as the man Elijah. However, upon reentering the world at a later time, it
no longer identified itself as the prophet Elijah, who had long died, but as he
of whom it now had knowledge of having become, even the person of John the Baptist.
For the apostle Paul doeth exhort the
church to not be forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have
entertained angels unawares. For here again this doeth show unto us that
spirits are constantly being born into the world in the midst of men, far
removed as with the angels from the stage of infancy. For the spirits are
confined by nothing, seeing how they are the faith of God ministering unto his
own will.
For they that are chosen of God must be
born again with spiritual knowledge and truth. Every spirit of man that enters
into the world is brought into the awareness of itself as being that of a
natural creature rather than spiritual, and for this cause is bound by the weak
and beggarly elements of the world, being trapped within the illusions of
carnality that leadeth unto death.
For it is only at such times as the spirit
within man begins to acknowledge its ways and earnestly begins seeking after
the way of God that the process of being born again is initiated.
For by knowledge and truth is the captives
set free, and every soul delivered, that is bound in spiritual darkness;
therefore, he that understandeth these things and pursues after righteousness
is blessed to have the grace of God bestowed upon him.
For the natural and spiritual man within
every man is but one spirit, but through knowledge it becometh the man of whom
he thinketh himself to be.
When the spirit within a man thinketh
itself to be that of a natural man, it will follow after natural things, and
because of such is called the natural man. However, when the selfsame spirit is
blessed of God to be endowed with grace to embrace the truth of the gospel and
by knowledge follow after godliness, it is then called the spiritual man.
Let no man think within his heart that to
be born again is some snap order to be filled by a carnal performance conducted
within the hours of a day. For even in the natural men set their hearts for to
tarry nine months, before welcoming into life the babe that is carried in the
womb. How then thinketh thou any
less of the spirit? For the new birth, doeth not complete itself while the
spirit of righteousness dwelleth within the body of corruption. It is only at
what time the church arrives to the point of having been transformed unto a
perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ that the
new birth of every believer shall be complete.
For some, not beholding the light that is
now shinning, doeth look back and embrace the performances of another time that
was pleasing of the God, against those things that are pleasing unto him now.
For they who do such things have never known God, nor at any time heard his
voice. They consider not that which is written, how that the mystery of these
things are well recorded, but are made known only unto the church for which
Christ died and rose again. For we know that the Lord doeth allow himself to be
pacified for awhile with the labor of his chosen within a light far less brighter
than that which is to be revealed at a later time. The light, regardless of its
intensity, doeth serve unto the pleasing of the Lord at the time in which he
causeth it to shine, for he is the living God.
One should not be confounded if at another
time men beheld the light of being born again by seeing the need of water
baptism as a prerequisite for to obtain the new birth. For by the lord’s spirit
are the eyes of men open for to allow in a greater light. Such was the case in
the waning days of circumcision, for up unto Paul the light held by the
apostles was allowing them to see that all men where now being called unto God.
Both Jews and Gentiles were receiving the water and spirit baptisms, and that
the circumcision of the flesh must need be accomplished of every man’s foreskin
after his arrival of the proper age. But God did usher in a greater light by
Paul to the end of the church body coming to accept, understand and embrace
that the Lord no longer required the cutting of the foreskin of the flesh, but
rather that of the heart.
Let us be wise and not fools, for we are
informed by the Lord that the kingdom of heaven is within men, now with it
being as he has declared then every man ought to look within his own body to
his spirit for to fulfill all rightousness.

SWEET FELLOWSHIP WITH HE WHOM MY SOUL LOVES
Apostle E. White
1 Oh Lord into thine arms do I
surrender the whole of my being. By thy love, I am drawn unto thee. For my
heart, doeth embrace thy ways and reject all others.
2 I am glad that thou loveth me.
Leave me not oh Lord, for without thee there exist no place in love where my
soul may rest.
3 Wisdom doeth proceed from thou
mouth, as if it where honey from a honeycomb. For thou forgetteth not thy
servant, but oftentimes do visit me. I am become thine through love.
4 For my heart is in a continual
longing for the comforter of my soul. Thou delighteth me oh Lord with gifts
more precious than that of silver or gold. I shall forever be faithful unto my
God.
5 Thou lieth beside me upon my
bed, and gently toucheth my heart in the wee hours of the morning to show unto
me deep things so that I might understand thee better.
6 Thou, cometh in unto my soul,
and by thy righteous seed causeth fruit to spring forth. Thou leaveth me not
barren, but doeth delight in those things that are begotten of thee.
7 Unto whom oh Lord, shall I
compare thou love? Who is he that is able to create such a godly stir within my
soul?
8 Every night I excitingly await
thee. For thou cometh and taketh me on a journey within the mystery of thy
being.
9 Thou showeth unto me more than
my tongue is able to express. I am dumb for finding words of which the ears of
men can receive.
10 Oh, how loveth thou me oh
Lord. Let us not be disturbed. Let no man interrupt the joy of my heart and
gladness of my soul.
11 For I needeth not anything but
love from my Love. For the man whom the Lord loveth shall be fed abundantly
with the corn of righteousness.
12 His barns shall be filled, and
his storehouses shall overflow, even in the midst of winter when the fields are
frozen and bare.
13 Oh ye that desireth truth, I
shall tell thee things of which thou oughtest to know, how that the lord loveth
thee and desireth that thou should love him in return.
14 For he hath made ready his
provisions, he hath set his table with the most delicate of foods to the
delight of his heart. The wine of gladness stirreth about in his cup and
waiteth for thee.
15 Oh, come ye that do hunger and
thirst after righteousness, all ye whose hearts are longing for pure love with
a never-ending flow.
16 For thou doeth carry me across
the waters oh Lord, riding upon thou shoulders, even the waters that are above
my head.
17 Thou art a shield against the
darts that fly about in search of my soul. With thou mighty hands they are
turned back against mine enemies.
18 I shall gladly wait upon thee
oh Lord, for thou only knoweth the intents of my heart and understandeth all my
ways. Therefore before thee of nothing am I ashamed.
19 Every morning, thou awakeneth
me with a gentle touch. Thou encourageth my heart at the start of each and
every day, even at sunrise.
20 There is no love to be
discovered apart from thine oh Lord, let no man speak in my ear of any other,
waste not ye my time.
21 For thou oh Lord, are always
with me, reminding me that I am thine. Thy words doeth greatly encourage my
heart in times of trouble, even in despair.
22 I desire Lord, to forever
reside in thou holy kingdom, to behold thee and give continual praise unto thy
glorious name.
23 How, oh Lord, can I separate
myself from this time of sweet fellowship with thee, though the business of the
day press hard upon me in waiting.
24 I am guilty of possessing
strong desire for thee oh Lord. I am overcome with feelings of which some men
need not know, for then would they not understand and mock me to their own
shame should ever they are called into thy love.
25 I am thy servant oh Lord, and
do always with gladness, desire to serve thee. Thou art my life, and truly the
joy of my being.
26 Thou hand is soft upon me. My
eyes holdeth not back the tears of joy for the life that is given unto my soul.
Oh, what is this that I’ve discovered to exist within my God?
27 It is a fountain of refreshing
waters. My soul is greatly revived. I am alive whereas once I was dead. I am
thine oh Lord and doeth not hold back any part of me.
28 Thou knoweth my heart how that
my lips speaketh truth unto thee. For I am aware that thou knoweth all things,
and that nothing is hid from thee.
29 For thou art my comfort and my
joy, in whom my heart doeth greatly delight. For thou giveth unto me wisdom by
which I am able to serve thee.
30 I am liberated in
righteousness, to give praise unto thou holy name. For thou looketh upon the
earth and seeth the course that men have chosen unto themselves, but thou oh
Lord doeth cause thy servant to go by another way.
31 Thou I walk alone yet thou has
filled my soul with praise and gladness unto thee. Thou encourageth my heart
above fainting and anointeth my spirit against drawing back.
32 I shall walk according to thy
pleasing oh Lord. I shall be unto thee in love, all of what thou shall have of
me. For greatly delight I myself in thee.

THE HEART OF THE
WATCHMAN
APOSTLE E. WHITE
The Lord hath appointed me a
watchman. He causeth my eyes to see. My heart is heavy with sorrow. He moveth
me about I am stirred as the wind.
The people seeketh not the spirit of God,
neither hear they the words that he causeth to be spoken by my lips. They are
driven mad with pride, blindness doeth take hold of their hearts.
They think to
be prosperous in heaping unto themselves thorns and thistles; they all shall be
gathered together for the fire.
There is no joy in the land, for the people are
without truth. For the land is barren and filled with death.
The seeds of
misery are scattered in every place, they are drenched with the blood of the
slain, the poor and the helpless.
The Lord has called me up into his holy
mountain and doeth even now instruct my heart. He taketh me far into a distant place and showeth unto me
the beginning.
He engageth me in ways of old, so that I might declare liberty
unto the church according to the pleasing of his will. He causeth me to know
that the people are held in bondage and giveth he unto me keys with the charge
to free them.
By his word he setteth me in their midst. He causeth me to cry
out as a merchant within the market place, but no man giveth heed, nor do any
take notice.
For I am poor and destitute, he maketh me a spectacle before the
eyes of men. He planteth my feet bold in righteousness, he holdeth me up steady
against the wind of derision, and watcheth over my soul for his namesake.
Let the people find the healing
medicine of God. Let them be soothed with the balm of righteousness. It is time
sayeth the Lord. It is time to behold all that is within thou heart.
For the
sun is not the light, neither the moon, that lighteth the darken ways of men. There is a burning in which the people doeth enter, blessed is he whose ways
are of the Lord, whose steps are directed by him.
Give not thyself unto
idleness, or to the imagination of thou heart, but surrender thyself unto God
for the saving of thou soul. Be at peace within him and let his love flow
towards all men.
I know my end, for the Lord hath showed it unto me, I shall
die in hope. I shall sleep among the righteous, even the salt of righteousness.
I shall rest in him forever.
Why thinketh my ways to be strange, oh ye who profess
love unto my God. Leadeth he not thee? Are not thou ways his, or do thou
profess the ways of thine own? Art thou ashamed, due to the world’s lack of
finding beauty in godliness?
Art thou desirous of something spiritual over
which the world can glory? For what seeketh thou of the substance within this
life? How testify thou of it? For the man that understandeth not the way of God
understandeth not me.
I am come forth as a servant unto him, for he has placed
within my heart a care for the souls of men. He needeth not any man, but useth
them for his purpose, unto his praise and to the glory of his name.
Leave me
be, all ye of carnal minds, let me reside within my solitude alone with him who
is the hope of all souls. The Lord doeth reveal unto me the mystery of his ways
so that I might aid those seeking truth.
Oh, leave me be, all ye that are
desirous of vainglory, for I desire not to be among you save to alert you of
your plight and help you fight for your souls.
Seeth not thyself oh man? Why
doeth thou allow Satan to cause thee to but only mumble concerning the tragedy
of thy ways before the Lord?
Seeth not how thou do resist following after the
spirit, but are choosing rather to follow after thine own heart, and that in
continuous shame? If thou should inquire of the way, then I shall tell thee
where thou canst find it.
Look to the place of truth and honesty within thine
own heart, for there shall you discover the Lord waiting for thee.

A MOMENT IN TIME
by
Apostle E. White
Speak Lord. Speak softly and my soul will hear. Speak from your
spirit and cause me to understand, that as for evil it too is for the purpose
of your glory. Let me not mar your wisdom with my feeble and faint comprehension
of nothing. I dare not tarnish the Lord's infinite knowledge, which extends
exceedingly far above me, like as the tall cedars above a flea and beyond. I stand in ah when giving thought to my
created self, realizing that I am unable to understand just what I am, or from
whence I came.
Today, I shall look toward the heavens, and praise your glorious
name. You have fashioned the whole
of creation according to the magnificence thoughts of your very own
imagination. You have expressed yourself by works far more than the eye
can behold, or mind embrace. How does one comprehend giving back that which
from you has never departed? What feeble man is there to even dare think of
having the ability of possessing anything?
For everything is of you and by you, from the beginning to the
end and without interruption. Nothing is of man, not even by chance. Our
reason, purpose, and entire being, all flow from you, which after having
served, we must all die.
The spirit of man has been brought forth from out of the depths
of thyself; from the abundance of your holy thoughts and into these earthy
creatures and from here our journey continues, but yet within you, because
outside of you there is not anything.
Oh Lord, it is only by your mercy that I am kept in remembrance
of you to the delight of thine own will. You have made my heart rejoice in
rendering unto you that which you have ordained.
Oh how, except by thee, can I praise you? How, except thou keep
me in tuned to thou Holy Spirit, can I know anything of thy will? I desire not
to be antichrist in any way towards thee, for in being such would mean an eternal separation from thee and an end to the joy of which my soul has been introduced.
I need not Lord, other than traveling in the direction of thou will, to know anything. The reward of eternal life is thine to give to
whomever thou chooseth, and I pray myself always to be among those so
blessed. I stand before you oh Lord humble in heart, lowly in mind, and
helpless in strength. For I desire to be saturated with thy spiritual courage and
never be defeated by fear.
For you Lord have executed a plan in righteousness, from
where I do always seek to praise and glorify your holy name.
It is never enough, the moments of intimate fellowship with thee, there is always a continual longing. You have extracted yourself from view, within the knowledge that maketh men vain. The portion of yourself you
have revealed continues to expand from one generation into another,
which causeth an endless pursuit by men to seek your face.
You have fashioned us in temporal bodies, within the time cycle
of life for the purpose of becoming aware of your being, from inside of which we have always existed. I
need your help oh Lord, to move cautiously through the shadows of death, under
whose lurking eye I am always observed. I am guided by thine hand, and under
thou wing I am protected. You have granted unto me strength, love, and security. I
shall nether fall, nor falter. For it is you oh Lord, whose son I am. My heart
holds no shame in having been adopted by you, and I pray never my spirit to
cause thee shame of me.
You
Lord, have always been my victory, and I shall continue to trust in you, because no battle has ever been lost by thee. I love, honor, praise and worship you Lord; I
give thanks unto your holy name for all that you are. I understand that all things are of thee for thine own
pleasure, and according to thine own will. I am at a lost in expressing gratitude unto thee, and am filled with joy and appreciation for the mercy that thou has shown unto my soul.
Help me oh Lord, to always be found pleasing in thy sight, because of a truth thou
art the ultimate joy and highlight of my very being.

FEEL AFTER GOD
By
Apostle E. white
The lord, he is a here and now God. His spirit yet moves as in the
beginning, as it did on the face of the waters. He is, that he is; and all things are
holy within the power of his word. He is the source of all the living and the desire
of life is his along to grant. A portion of his wisdom has he made available unto
man but the treasure of truth he has hidden within the chambers of the mysteries of his spirit, away from the
wise and prudent. He has position
man to exist within the complexity of vanity, within the confines of man’s own
imagination that is exercised in opposition to itself.
Call on him and he will hear, for he dwells in the now. Oh my
people, if only thou had known what peace belongeth unto thee. I have waited
from time before, even unto now, to give thee my joy. The place in
which you have chose to reside is a place of gross darkness, a place that knows not my
peace. You have acquired a taste for bitter gall as sweetness and for a long time now this
allusion has captivated your minds. It has demanded of you to sacrifice your
children unto the god of technology, to which you so gladly do. You refused to
be delivered, even to the point of mocking those of whom I send to battle and
be bruised by Satan on your behalf. How shall I deal with you, for if I take
you to heart in the heat of my anger your place shall be no more. Eternal
damnation seem to be the path which you have chosen for yourselves, and I ask
not why, seeing how you continuously fill your baskets with the fruits of
sinful lusts and pleasures. Can you not see the worms of corruption, can you
not feel as they crawl about the reins of your hearts and through the sockets of your
eyes, or even hear them gnawing within your ears.
That which I speak is no illusion. For if I should declare thee
chaff for the burning then the heat of my wrath shall blow over you and your souls shall be no more. I shall not be mocked by the creation of my hands. I
shall not forever give life to the dead, for their continual rising up against me. I
have brought you forth as living souls, but now thine end approacheth. I shall
forever hold you opposite of my peace, in the place where only fools abide. Oh
turn unto me you that desire life. Reach out unto me with a true heart and I shall
embrace and surround you with arms of love, peace, and security, from that part of
me which lieth beyond your ability to see. Need I explain by other means that
it is only I of whom thou stand in need, or shall I give you over to pain and
discomfort to remind you of your fragile selves?
From
which entrance of your heart will I be allowed to enter so that I might lead
thee in the way of prosperity? Study now your hearts and see which of your thoughts
am I able to enjoy. For the path of righteousness is not such that a man can
lead himself; therefore I counsel thee, receive my instructions and you shall
receive the blessing of life: ignore my counsel and you shall all die.

A MIGHTY GOD
Apostle E WHITE
Death is
about the street and doeth couch in the darkness, but the light shineth about
the just and guideth their feet along a safe path.
For the Lord’s mercy did
find me and by the power of his love did deliver my soul. I shall join the
chorus of angels in giving praise unto my God.
What man knoweth anything except
the Lord should tell him. Therefore let the proud hearts be humbled and the
lofty eyes come down.
Oh how my heart is stirred by the richness of him whose
love I once knew not. My heart is washed with the pure water from within his
holy temple.
For the blood of the lamb hath reached unto me and by it my soul
is sanctified. His spirit doeth rest upon me because he abides in heaven and in
the earth.
My heart seeketh not to leave from under his holy anointing. The
sick and afflicted doeth wait upon thee oh Lord for to be healed, though many
know thee not, yet by prayer thou worketh on their behalf.
For death hath budded
new life and the flowers hath began to bloom just before the dawning of a new
day. Oh how I gladly bow my knees before the father of lights because he hath
caused his joy to consume the whole of me.
Blessed is the man whom the Lord
loveth. For the joy of the Lord’s blessing shall be more than a man’s tongue is
able to express.
For thou oh Lord have shown unto thy servant the ways of man,
how that not one of them doeth entreat another for the good of his soul, but
for a day to say remember thou my kindness unto thee, now payeth thou me.
Oh
Lord, help me never to complain. For thine eyes watcheth over them that truseth
in thee.
My heart is filled with gladness concerning the blessing that is
bestowed upon me. For in the beauty of holiness serve I the Lord. My heart
loveth him above fear.
I am envious of the angels that do always behold the Lord's
face in glory; though there is no space or time between me and my God. For all
things are amen in him.
The treasures of his thoughts has he laid about me. He
causeth many blessings to fly about swiftly and light upon them of whom they
are appointed.
The world is beneath the righteous and the glory of it, though
sought after by carnal men, do rest at the base of the dunghill.
For the jewell
of heaven hath the Lord given unto me. My head is crowned with the wisdom of
the most high. Offer me not the beggarly elements of the land for they are but
a mere fool's reward, least I shall be greatly offended.
God's love doeth abide
all around me, it is as a strong city whose walls are exceedingly high. Oh what
need I to fear when such care is shown towards me for his namesake?
Come thou
into the camp of the Lord all ye that seek refuge, for he shall open the south
gate unto thee before the going down of the evening sun so that thou shall be
kept safe from the terror of darkness, from the devouring beast that hunteth
for the unprotected soul.
For the Lord’s holy city shall be lifted from the
earth at evening and brought down to rest upon the dew of the morning. Let it
be so oh Lord, let it be even as thou hath declared.
For the mark is stayed and
the plum line straight, therefore the building goeth up safe and leaneth not
this way or that. For there is none able to inspect it but the Lord, and he
giveth approval according to the word that liveth in his mouth.
For death doeth
tremble and the grave quake for fear of him by whom they shall be judged. The
heart of the righteous shall not fear to visit among them, for they cometh with
authority.
Therefore let them that sleep, sleep peacefully and undisturbed. For
at the Lord's pleasing he shall call unto thee and thou shall answer and come
without hindrance.
Cast thou away then sorrow from taking hold of thy heart,
for thou art blessed of the Lord. Gather thy children about thee and pronounce
a blessing upon them that they might remember to honor the Lord and set their
hearts aright before their God.
Write thou these things for the good of men
souls, even the souls of the Just.
