Peter breaches at Pentecost, Acts
2:22-41, for Sunday, Feb. 10:
The Christians in the upper room
at Pentecost were baptized with fire
SO that the whole personality OF
each of them was glowing with heat
and light, for the fire had gone all
through them. They suddenly be-
came conscious of their divine lead
er who was no longer visible, but
who had become an invisible Pres
ence and living power through
them.
". %. Eye men of Israel, hear
these words; Jesus Of Nazareth, a
man approved of God among you
by miracles, wonders and signs,
which God did by him in the midst
OF you, as ye yourselves also know"
The demonstration of the Spirit
power coming upon the 130 waiting
in the upper room alarmed the large
company in Jerusalem who were
anxious for an explanation; Peter,
once the coward, now willing to risk
his life exemplifies at once the pow
er and influence of Christ whom
Peter proclaimed with power. Peter
claims the case made that Christ
was Lord and Saviour by the fact
of witnesses present who knew the
miracles wrought with the accom-
panying power and wonder.

er of death to which all others have
succumbed. The fact of Christ's
resurrection was another strong
argument Peter used to prove that
Christ was back Of what they had
seen.
VS.. 25, &c. For David speaketh
concerning him, l foresaw the Lord
always before my face, for he is on
my right hand that / should not be
moved; therefore did my heart re-
joice and my tongue was glad;
moreover my flesh shall rest in
hope. 5" To further establish his
point, Peter quotes a Psalm 16:8 8-11
which his hearers believed but did
not understand; it takes the Holy
Spirit to reveal the truth in Gods
word as Peters Interpretation was
different from that of their own.
v. 27. "Because thou wilt not
leave my soul in Hades, neither wilt
thou give thy Holy One to see cor
ruption.' Weymouth's translation
is "For thou shalt not leave me in
the unseen world forsaken, nor give
up thy holy one to undergo decay.
The point Peter makes is that
Christ's resurrection was foretold
by David whom they believed.
v. %. Thou hast made known
to me the ways of life; thou shalt
make me full of joy with thy coun-
tenance." Gods truth when under
stood becomes knowledge as wis
dom and produces joy. God is pres
ent in his truth for God is truth.
V. SO. Therefore let all the
house of Israel know assuredly that
God hath made that same Jesus
whom ye have crucified, both Lord
and Christ Gods estimate of Je-
sus was SO utterly different from
that held by the hearers, that Peter
had to tell them that he whom they
had crucified as malefactor was
exalted by God as their Lord and
Messiah
V. 81. Now when they heard
this they We're pricked in their
heart, and said unto Peter and to
the rest of the apostles, Men and
brethren what shall we do?" To be
accused of crucifying Christ would

"PEACE"

Father Divine in the likeness Of
man. The mystery of Him.
We are the temples of the True
and Living God. Millions are now
living that will never die, as they
continue to live the life and teach
ings of Jesus Christ, as recorded
in the four Gospels of Matthew,
Mark, Luke and John.
Mary, being a pure Virgin, and
living a clean life in body as
well as mind, caused the Holy
Ghost to appear to her, and it
transmitted to her the idea that
she would bring forth the Child
Of God. She visualized herself with
the Child, making a mental pic
ture, she made mental and spirit
ual contact and caused the Holy
Ghost in her or the Christ to de-
scend into her organ of birth, and
she brought forth the Child called
Emanuel, meaning God is with us,
as the angel that came to her told
her that she would. Jesus is
spirit and mind materialized in a
bodily form. For Jesus is Christ,
and Christ is God, and God is
Spirit and Mind. In order to I'M
derstand who is this Wonderful
One, we must first understand the
Son called Jesus before you can
know the Father that was in Him
and is in Him. Jesus, being Spirit
and Mind, then His body was
Spirit and Mind materiaIzed in
the likeness of sinful flesh to con-
denim sin in the flesh, not to con-
denim the flesh but the sin in the
flesh. Jesus was limited to the
Sonship degree Of expression,
therefore He said: eff I not go
away, the Comforter will not
come. He had to come again to
show that He had gone to the
Father, the Partnership degree of
expression, for His body, being
Spirit and Mind, went back into
that state of expression so as to
bring itself into the Partnership
degree of expression, so the same
Spirit and Mind has come down
through different bodies such as
Ann Lee, the one belonging to the
sect called Shakers of New York

all that partook of it were surely
blessed, for these are transmittable
to your bodies to become part of it.
Although Father Divine was not
there in person, He was there in
spirit, for the rooms were so filled
with His peace and harmony and
love that all could express the
brotherhood Of man. Some, per-
haps, were wondering how so much
food could be served at one meal,
but as this is the expression of the
table of the Lord, the table that
Jesus and David and Solomon
spoke about, it was an expression
of the full and aplenty of all good
things that are in the storehouse of
God for all those that live the life
and teachings of Christ Jesus.
The banquet was served as it is
served at Father Divine's personal
table in New York City, the food
being passed from the kitchen to
one sitting next to where Father
Divine's place had been set, for, al
though He is in New York City,
in person, His spirit and mind were
there in His Person. Instead, the
food being in separate bowls or
platters, one for each side of the
table, was gently touched to the
cup at Father Divine's place so as
to receive the blessing of the Holy
Spirit which in turn is transmitted
to those that partake of the ma
terial food that their bodies may be
bathed in the spirit of perfection
and health and peace, for as the
spirit is, so shall the bodies Of man.
kind be. AS He is, He wants all to
be.
Two men from radio station
WTCN were there as visitors and
gave short talks.
Testimonies and songs of praise
for the wonderful works of Father
Divine, which were so uplifting and
created such an atmosphere of
harmony and peace that all felt the
at-one-ment with each other and
the expression of divine love. A
message of Father Divine's was
read from the Spoken Word maya
zine.
The meeting and banquet were
held at 1915 Fourth Ave. So.
St. Paul recorder. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1934-2000, 1935-10-25
Everything that

in the 1905. Everything that
Jesus said or did was parable
for this dispensation. The death,
apparently, the Resurrection, the
Ascension, coming through the
closed door, the Baptism, His Life,
His Teachings. Jesus suffered
muchly, that is why He said,
"Glorify Me with the glory had
with Thee before the world was.
He went back to the Father or in
to the bosom of His Father, where
no harm or minds can come nigh
Him. He is in the bosom of His
Father, Who we know that it is
our beloved Father, Father Divine,
the Father that was and is in
Jesus, the Father that is in you
and me and in millions lying dor
mant, waiting to be awakened by
the spirit of Father Divine, and
then you have the Father and the
Son and the Holy Ghost in you,
and as you live according to the
life and teachings of Him, you will
bring the Christ in you into obser-
walton so all can see by your works.

CAMPHOR M. e.

Camphor Memorial M. E. Church
was honored with the presence of
DR.. Glenn Clark of Manchester
College at the Sunday night serv-
ices October 20, 1885. DR.. Clark
made an appeal to the colored
people for group prayers as a
means of solving the economic con-
ditions now existing throughout
the world. His subject was "What
Can the Negro Do to Better His
Economic Condition 2" ~---. .-..~~.
, Camphor Memorial M. E. Church
is progressing daily with its indus
trial program. Already the sew
ing department is manufacturing
aprons, dresses, shirts, repairing
clothes for the poor, and is giving
employment to several women. The
shoe department is turning out
first class work with a constant in
crease of trade.
At the present time, Shokumbi's
Laboratories, under the able super
vision of DR.. S. P. Shokumbi, mas
ter chemist, is turning out ink Of
all kinds. The laboratory, which
is still under construction, is con-
nected with Camphor church and is
supplying offices, business insti-
tutions and schools throughout st.
Paul with ink. 1t is the aim of
this institution to employ at least
a hundred men and women within
the next sixty days.
Thus Camphor church is making
its gradual progress toward the
fulfllment of the one great aim of
its able pastor, Rev. II. M. Marbly,
"the decrease of the number of
Negroes on relief rolls and en-
ployment of Negro students finish
ing schools yearly"

III. Daniel Interprets the Writing
wv. 1929.
1. Daniels address to the king
tvv. 1920.
a. He brushes aside his promised
gifts ". 10. He would not have
his speech limited by the kings gift.
1t required great strength of char
acter and courage to speak thus in
the presence of great king. He
knew that this was no time for
bribery. He knew that those would
be the last words ever to fall on
the poor sinners ears.
b. He reviewed before Belshaz-
Ear the history of Nebuchadnezzar
wv. 1924. He showed clearly that
Belshazzar should have profited by
the experiences of his father.
2. The Interpretation of the writ
ing wv. 25-28).
a. "Mene" means numbered" ~.
26). "God hath numbered the king
dom and finished it."
b. "Tekel" means weighed" ".
~. "Thou art weighed in the bal
ances and art found wanting"
c. "Peres" means divided" ".
2S). "The kingdom Is divided, and
given to the Modes and Persians."
w. The Judgment Executed wv.
29-31).
So rapidly did the divine judg-
ment fall that Belshazzar was slain
and Darius the Median took the
kingdom that same night. The Chal-
dean dynasty ended with Belshaz-
Ear. We may, therefore, interpret
this whole scene as pointing to the
conditions at the close of the time
Of the Gentiles, and as adumbrat-
ing their prevailing conditions. Let
US note:
1. The stupidity Of men. Belshaz-
Ear, like people today, did not learn
by example. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS fate
should have deferred Belshazzar
from such folly. The driftwood Of
wrecked humanity cast upon the
shores of time seem to do little good
to posterity.
2. The magnificent splendor. This
great feast was characterized by
pomp, display and parade.
3. Luxury. The famous hanging
gardens Of Babylon were a note
worthy example. Signs of luxury
abound today on every hand.
4. The RIGHTEOUSNESS Of the king
with his many wives and concu-
bines. Licentiousness is likewise no.
toriously prevalent today.
5. Blasphemous sacrilege. The
sacrilege Of this day may be in
excess Of that Of Belshazzar's day
and expresses itself in
a. A profession Of religion for
pecuniary gain, social and political
preferment.
b. Inc use OF the pulpit OF the
Christian ministry for notoriety and
even for the propagation of false
doctrine.
c. Uniting with the church and
attendance at the Lords table so as
to cover up secret sins.
d. The use Of the Word Of God
to give point to a joke.
e. Denying that the Bible is Gods
Word, making it a book of errors,
myths and legends.
+. Sneering at the virgin birth,
repudiating Christ's deity and set
ting aside his vicarious atonement.
6. Drunken carousals. The hand
writing on the wall. His judgments
shall eventually fall Conditions in
the world indicate that the time Is
drawing near. Are you ready?
