style="font-family: Arial;" lang="EN-GB">Let us discuss counting the
cost. It is for each person to understand and respond to the Master’s
calling. You cannot do it as a group, you cannot do it in the abstract,
you cannot do it in the mind alone:<span style=""> </span>you must
also follow in the Master’s steps. It is not something you can do
without actualizing your commitments in your life and this
actualization will cost you. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

style="font-family: Arial;" lang="EN-GB">It may cost you everything
you have and indeed everything you think you are so far in this life.
Yea, it may even cost you your life itself but you must also understand
that without paying the price you cannot advance in the Kingdom. You
must follow the master into all kinds of hardship that might be
required. You might even from time to time follow him into the hatred
of the world for he says: happy are you when you are hated for my sake.
Happy are you in the face of all manner of hardship, vilification,
financial loss, what have you, none of these things can touch your
inner spirit so long as you’re strong and fully connected with every
ounce of your being to the Master’s spirit and to the spirit of God
living within you. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

style="font-family: Arial;" lang="EN-GB">The Master said, the Kingdom
of Heaven is like the pearl of great price. It is worth it to sell all
you have and all will ever have in this life to possess it. It is worth
it to give all you have and to give our Father your will completely
without thought of what should happen and where you should go or what
you should do in this life. In the realm of spiritual growth you must
each lay down your lives from time to time and each time you do so you
will take it up again in renewed strength and spirit, with him rather
than with your own desires or unwieldy possession of various sorts that
can oppress you without you even being aware of it. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

style="font-family: Arial;" lang="EN-GB">The freedom of walking with
the Master’s spirit is true freedom for you are not limited by your
fears, for you already counted the costs and decided to pay. If you
have not already counted the cost, when the test arrives you may draw
back in fear thus missing an important foothold, an important turn in
the road for fear of loss. Truly it is said to the God knowing kingdom
believer, what does it matter if all things earthly crash. The way of
the spirit involves a progressive leaving behind of the things of this
world, the things of the flesh, the comforts, the security, for these
things are false comfort and false security. All thing earthly return
to dust, even the body returns to the dust from whence it came. But
your souls will abide with your true treasures, the true value <span

children, come to me, give me what you have--that is your will, and I
will make you more than you are. Come, let us <span
style="color: black;">reason </span>together and though your sins may
be as scarlet they will be made white as snow. It is up to you than to
count the cost. Each of you is dedicated to finding God and to becoming
progressively spirit identified so that your personality reflects and
becomes and enters into the Father’s spirit. To love Him is to know Him
and to know Him is to be like Him. Again, my friends, you must count
the cost.<span style=""> </span>What will it cost you to walk in the
spirit?<span style=""> </span>What must you let go of that may be
holding you--that may be causing recurring lessons--a place you can’t

style="font-family: Arial;" lang="EN-GB">What must you barter for
progress of the soul? Intellectual pride? Spiritual pride? Is there
some part of you that wants to hang on to old sadness, old views of
self that are less than what you are today? Is there some secret sin
that pulls you into disaster? Each of you knows that price of the next
step. Let the Master explain how you can pay.<span style=""> </span>How
you can place it on the table to purchase that pearl of great price,
that next level of personality function and wisdom, the ability to bear
spiritual fruit.<span style=""> </span>Yes, this is all incumbent on
the steps of the spirit, the moving forward of the soul, the progress
that is undeniable in your lives. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class="MsoBodyText" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><font
face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif" size="+1"><span
style="font-family: Arial;" lang="EN-GB">Many humans, in fact, one
should say most humans, move to a certain point in their spiritual
progress and fear to move any farther. They look around and see others
who are also content with a fairly superficial spirituality and so they
content themselves there. But in reality, fears gather, for you must
grow or there becomes a spiritual stagnation and fears are attracted to
this. Each forward step in the spiritual journey and your growth in the
spirit is another layer of fear abandon, another freeing of the soul
from the clutches of fear in its various guises. Fear is what prevents
counting the cost much less paying the cost. It is fear that tells
humans there is no cost. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class="MsoBodyText" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><font
face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif" size="+1"><span
style="font-family: Arial;" lang="EN-GB">Know, my friends, progressing
in the spirit, increasing happiness and peace of mind require a
constant letting go of fear. And to let go of fear you must mentally
and spiritually place your fear of loss or your fear of whatever it is
before you on the table. You must be willing to lose what you are
afraid of losing. You must be willing to follow into the thrilling
partnership with the Master. As you relinquish your fears you will find
that you go deeper into the psychological realms where old fears lurk
in order to release them.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class="MsoBodyText" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><font
face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif" size="+1"><span
style="font-family: Arial;" lang="EN-GB">Sometimes this fear is a fear
of seeing ourselves, a fear of acknowledging some human problem, a fear
of simple self-discovery. Be at ease my friends. If you are short of
the faith required, ask him for that faith.<span style=""> </span>Pray
for faith.<span style=""> </span>Pray for the Master’s hand to lead
you through the door of unknowing. Then you will find that knowing is
not frightening at all--it was the not knowing. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

style="font-family: Arial;" lang="EN-GB">Fear is like a great fraud, a
great charlatan. Fear must be constantly banished. Fear must be weeded
from your garden, pulled out by the roots, so to speak, and to do this
sometimes opens up a psychological scar, a place of pain; but quickly
this pain will pass and you will emerge much stronger and more balanced
because you are more in full adjustment with reality. Reality is not
frightening, it is fear that is entirely real. The reality is, you live
in God’s universe and you are his children. You are beloved, cherished,
and given everything needful for your happiness, health, and comfort.
You are never abandoned in this universe and you are never alone. These
things are the true nature of reality.<span style=""> </span>Fear is
born of not knowing the truth and what’s real.<span style=""> </span>Fear
is born of confusion.<span style=""> </span>Fear is born of faulty
teaching and faulty religious teaching especially.<span style=""> </span>But
none of these things has any power, power always lies<b>,</b> but the
truth of things, the simple reality, with things the way they are.
These things cannot really hurt you in any way. Death cannot hurt you,
death is simply the breaking out of the cocoon, it is your soul’s
emergence from the chrysalis of the body. Do not be afraid of anything
in the universe, the Master is with you personally and the Father’s
spirit is becoming you and you are becoming Him, so as you identify
with all that is real so do you feel at home with all that is.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

are doing well. Do not fear the changing of the times the changing of
your inner feelings. You are often convinced in the mind of something
but then you have trouble following all the way through into real
experience. To be an upholder of truth you must embrace truth and to do
this you must release the old falsehoods of yesterday and the old
patterns that no longer serve, the old attitudes that are beginning to
strike you as not you any more. To grow is to change and to turn toward
change you do not necessarily know what it will be, you can not plot
out exactly what change you will be experiencing for this can only come
through the experience itself and you can not know the experience
before you have had the experience. Release then the old, all things
indeed will become new if you let them. Contemplate this for you are
doing very well my son.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<hr style="width: 100%; height: 2px;">Belief has attained the level of
faith when it motivates life and shapes the mode of living. The
acceptance of a teaching as true is not faith; that is mere belief.
Neither is certainty nor conviction faith. A state of mind attains to
faith levels only when it actually dominates the mode of living....
Faith does not shackle the creative imagination, neither does it
maintain an unreasoning prejudice toward the discoveries of scientific
investigation. Faith vitalizes religion and constrains the religionist
heroically to live the golden rule. The zeal of faith is according to
knowledge, and its strivings are the preludes to sublime peace.<a><b>
