Vol. 16 No. 51 - Beloved Portia - December 23, 1973
Coronation of the Vicar of Christ
Knights and ladies of the Flame, most gracious ladies and gentlemen, I greet you in the spirit of immortal freedom and in the name of Saint Germain, my beloved consort and the Knight Commander of the Keepers of the Flame Fraternity.
I am privileged to address you today on the subject of universal and individual justice and freedom. I come wearing the robes of the Lords of Karma, for I sit among that august body as one of the seven who must mete out justice on behalf of humanity. And thus the honor of the Karmic Board is upon this assembly this day, and you are honored by the presence of the seven rays emanating from the Heart of God for the preservation of opportunity to become the Christ in each of the seven rays and their attendant Christ Consciousness.
Opportunity, as you have heard, is the open portal to unity. When you walk through the portal that God opens before you, you can be certain that unity with God, unity with man will ensue. And you will enjoy a greater communion of the saints ascended and the saints unascended as you walk the spiral Home, the pathway spiral that is a giant merging of flames striving for the Summit of Being, striving for the Light of His Presence that is the Flame of Life to which you have dedicated yourselves and which you have vowed to keep.
The Keeper of the Flame is the Holy Spirit that ignites the spark of identity, the Threefold Flame, at birth and receives that flame upon the passing of the soul to its etheric home. Thus I salute the Maha Chohan as the Keeper of the Flame of Life within all mankind and as your guide and guardian in the keeping of that flame on behalf of all evolutions upon this planetary home.
I come then to show you the opportunity of souls appointed by God to come together in this time as the foundation of the new church, the Holy Jerusalem that cometh down from heaven as a bride adorned for her husband. The true church is the Bride of Christ, the Lamb’s wife. <1> I come to announce to you this day that the Keepers of the Flame, as a body across the planetary home, constitute the true church of Lord Jesus and Lord Gautama, the new church that is the foundation for the Golden Age and the work of Saint Germain and myself as the father and mother of freedom for the Golden Age of Aquarius. We have been preparing this church at inner levels; and we have been preparing your souls through the tutoring of the Keepers of the Flame Lessons, our dictations, and all that has been provided by Hierarchy in the publications of The Summit Lighthouse and the efforts of our Messengers.
In addition to these, we have provided a haven of Light in our retreats at the etheric level for the tutoring of the souls who comprise the true church. And thus unbeknownst to you, you have been taken specifically and individually for many years into temple training to prepare you for the time when you would recognize in your outer consciousness the teachings of the Ascended Masters and how much they mean for the salvation of the planet and its people and the resurrection of the Christ Consciousness in all.
Many of you came before the Karmic Board and petitioned Saint Germain and myself that we would sponsor you in this embodiment and draw you into this very activity forming in the nucleus, in the heart, of El Morya and the members of the Darjeeling Council. Thus the time has come to announce to the Keepers of the Flame Fraternity that you have a high and holy office to preserve the white stone that each of you is, that builds the True Pyramid and the City Foursquare, <2> stone upon stone. Each of you is designed to be a perfect stone in the building of the temple of the New Jerusalem. And thus the pattern and the mark of the Christ is the chief cornerstone, <3> the chief atom, in each stone which you are. And thus the foundation of a Golden Age is built upon hearts united and dedicated to the keeping of the Flame of Life.
Now I have the privilege also to announce to you this day that due to certain perversions in the outer churches of the world both in East and West, due to the absence of our authority in backing the authorities of these churches in embodiment, because of their departure–their marked departure–from the precepts of the Brotherhood, it has become necessary and it has been decided by the Knight Commander, by Jesus the Christ, and by the Darjeeling Council that the Great White Brotherhood should vest the authority of the Vicar of Christ and the head of the true Church, the Church Universal and Triumphant, in the Mother of the Flame. Although she has not desired to make this known to you or to tell you publicly of the visitation which she received a year ago from Jesus the Christ in which he anointed her as the Vicar of Christ, we have desired to make this announcement to this body this day.
We also make known to you that Saint Germain, the Knight Commander, as proof to the Mother of the Flame of the authority that is given to her, both on the inner and the outer, to inaugurate this new church, has caused the representative of the Knight Commander to bring to her in physical, tangible manifestation a single perfect diamond that shall be the focus of the will of God and the focus of the Knight Commander and of the true teachings of the Christ to the age. This diamond, its value great in the marts of men, is seven and a half carats. Presented to her, then, in service and as a tribute of the Light, the Hierarchy ascended and our representative in embodiment do acknowledge that by the efforts united of Lanello and the Mother, the true Church Universal and Triumphant, built upon the stones of rejoicing, the lively stones <4> of the white fire, shall rise up and shall manifest unto the perfect day.
Although it is not to the liking, or the preference should I say, of this Messenger to have this announcement made through her, I have explained and insisted that unless the announcement be released by Hierarchy into the ethers by the power of the spoken Word and anchored in the body of the Keepers of the Flame, Hierarchy would not be able to precipitate upon this matrix of the fohatic Light that we release in our dictations all that we desire to manifest and to bring forth through the manifold projects that have been discussed in the Keepers of the Flame business meeting this day.
Therefore, we make known to you our anointing and our appointment of this Messenger this day who shall minister unto you and unto the true body of Lightbearers across the face of the earth as our representative upholding the fires of the Divine Mother and the Cosmic Virgin incarnate. Blest is the earth to have in her and in you a focus true of the Light that shall not fail, the torch that shall not be let down, and the Truth that shall prevail.
Hierarchy vests you this day with the authority to carry the power of the spoken Word and the true teachings of the Brotherhood north, south, east, and west. We bless you; we commend you into the keeping of the Mother Flame. We commend you into her hands for the teaching and for the wisdom of the Flame that is hers to impart. This is opportunity given to one who long ago, at the hour of passing from the screen of Life and receiving the last rites from a passing priest who was her own twin flame, cried out, “Opportunité! Opportunité!” And thus as Elizabeth sent forth the call to me for another opportunity, another life, another embodiment to show forth the wonders of the Divine Mother, so I have sponsored her to be the open portal for the unity of the Body of God <5> upon earth as it is in heaven.
I ask you to rise in the name of the Knight Commander to pay homage to the Flame of the Divine Mother and to the coronation of the Vicar of Christ for the commencement of the Aquarian Age.
I bless you with the flame of justice that shall be a mark upon your forehead that God-justice prevail upon earth and that you stand in the pillar of that fire to defend justice and mercy, opportunity and freedom as the four pillars in the temple of the Golden Age structure that is the seventh ray that sponsors the seventh root race and the completion and the fulfillment of the divine plan of the earth under the Great Divine Director.
May you always know wherever you go that God is justice, God is mercy, God is freedom, God is opportunity!
