Talk of Master John on the Feast of the Nativity

The earth celebrates the Nativity of Christ. There is a revival of the Great, the unrepeatable Presence of Christ upon earth.

We do not simply honour Christ, His Birth, His Life, His Teaching, but we worship Christ, Christ our Self – I emphasise. We worship Him, and even the word worship is merely a human expression, which is incapable of compensating for or present the Greatness of the Nativity of the Logos upon earth. It is simply a human expression, so that we may communicate with one another. But, as I have often told you, beneath the simple expression we commonly use, there exists the Idea, which grants us a deeper opening, a deeper meaning, if you will, to what the word contains. And beneath the Idea there exists the Essence of each matter – the Essence which sends forth Ideas and meanings and cultivates Man.

We celebrate, therefore, the revival of the Nativity of Christ upon earth, but at the same time we are adapted to what we may call – even though it is not – a New Idea: the Christ-Presence within Man, the Presence of the Logos Christ within Man, which will lead Man to union and identification with Christ. (…)

(…) It is the New  evolution, my brothers, the New evolution programmed by God, because nothing happens unless God has programmed it. And at this New Cosmic Period into which we have entered, there exists this destiny for Man: the New evolution, the New formation of Perfect Ideas, of Perfect expressions, of Perfect actions,  the victory of Love – because within the Perfection of Love all things exist – for, as you have heard, Love is God.

Thus, at this New Cosmic Period, the Divine programming, the Divine Plan, has programmed, has blessed, has directed humanity so that the Grace of the Logos Christ may be incorporated into Man, may be united with Man, in order to render men Christ-bearing, Christ-manifesting, Christ-acting, and Christ-living within the matter in which we exist.
