“The earthly and wayward seek only after outward pleasures and the satisfaction of the body. They fall into the snare of disbelief in the soul, and the Law decrees that disbelief shall be easy.

“Wise men, knowing the nature of immortal things, seek not for anything stable here among unstable things.

“That by which we know the texture of things, by which we taste, smell and hear, by which we experience the tenderness and suffering of love and perceive the beauty of nature, by which we value the glory of self sacrifice, by that we are also assured of something immortal within us.

“For when a man comes to the realization that it is by the soul within him that he knows and experiences all things about him, he has taken the first great step towards conscious immortality.”

The Kolbrin Bible (MPR:3:23-26)

The Earthly and Wayward

The earthly and wayward seek for material pleasures as the only things of value in life. They either don’t believe in anything spiritual, or they believe that they can wait until they are physically dead to worry about the spirit. Both of those beliefs are false.

Disbelief Shall be Easy

When the quote says that the law decrees that disbelief in the soul “shall be easy,” it is referring to the false law of the Demiurge, not the true Law of God. God’s Law is that we should believe in the Spirit and Soul and that we should develop those spiritual faculties while we are still in the physical world.

Wise Men Know

Wise men and women know the nature of immortal things. They know that it is spiritual things that are immortal, so they do not seek immortal things in the physical realm, what the quote calls “unstable things”. Many know that some spiritual teachers of the past said that nothing physical is real. What they meant is that nothing physical is permanent. Only the Spiritual is permanent. Only the spiritual comes from God.

Love and Beauty

Knowing love and beauty does assure us that there is something immortal within us, as the quote says. Of course, this only goes for real Love, which is universal, and real beauty that is not defined by things that are temporary, and definitely not by things altered with cosmetics and surgery. Real beauty is more than what’s on the surface.

Conscious Immortality

It is true that when we learn that it is through the spirit and soul that we know what and experience reality, it is the first step towards conscious immortality. Indeed, one of the purposes of spiritual development techniques is to gradually rise to higher and higher levels of consciousness until we reach the highest level where God and the Angels dwell.

Since this article is short, I’ve decided to add a few lines from a very spiritual song that few spiritual people seem to know about. The song is Hummingbird by Seals and Crofts.

“Haven’t you noticed the days somehow keep getting longer, and the spirit voice grows stronger in us all.

Haven’t you noticed the Rays, the Spirit Sun grows stronger, and a new day is dawning for us all.”

Here is a link to the full song on YouTube:

Second Advent Pentecost (June 6, 2026)

On Sunday, June 6, 2026, the Second Advent Pentecost Sunrise Divine Service was held at the Church of New Pentecost. Following the service, breakfast was served at the Chapter House.

Pentecost in the Second Advent Church signifies that God has bestowed His Divine Presence upon The Community in Sanctuary — The Image and The Word that nurture the spirit and Soul with Life and Wisdom. The old First Dispensation Christian celebration commemorates the descent of the Holy Spirit upon the Disciples seven weeks after the resurrection of Jesus. In the old Hebrew calendar, Pentecost — Shavuot or the Festival of Weeks — commemorated the giving of the Law on Mount Sinai. For the Essaei Community, the Festival of Weeks was the time to renew one’s vows and to review one’s place in the Order. In the Second Advent, New Laws were revealed at the Temple Mount for a New Age under God at the Second Coming. And this is the purpose of celebrating the date of June 6th in the Sacred Calendar of the Community.

The following excerpt from The Book of God’s Revelation describes the vision experienced by The Man atop the Temple Mount of the Sanctuary of Prophecy on the day of Pentecost 1982, and suggests the nature of the Revelations received that day:

And The Word of God spoke to his Soul a second time, revealing unto him the Sanctuary was under the special Blessing of God, and that he was to mark those sites where he communed with The Image and The Word.

And The Word of God proclaimed to The Man’s Soul that the Righteous Ministry was ordained to go forth to the whole world, proclaiming God’s Advent and the freedom of the peoples from the tyranny of heretical governments.

And God did reveal to him a Proclamation of Human Spiritual Rights that all governments were to acknowledge and honor. The Righteous Ministers would be God’s Envoys–as a nation in sanctuary–under the protection and sovereignty of God.

And The Word of God revealed that the Temple of uncut stones, made Righteous as was the sun of the earth, was blessed of God. And in the Temple, restored not by human hands but by the Hand of God, God would commune with the Righteous ordained to His Ministry.

And The Man saw a great cloud come over the Sanctuary and the face of the sun. And he felt God’s Presence and Blessings over the Sanctuary. And he looked at the sun grown brilliant by the clouds, its rays burning as fire, and he heard the Word of God say, “Let none but the Righteous in The Way look upon The Image I have made for a blessing over the land.

This day a gift is bestowed upon the Church of My Second Advent. The Light of the Sun in the Eight Appearances shall make wise the Souls of the Righteous who will have understanding and knowledge of God. United they shall be by spirit, bonded together as One in God, and there shall be no diversity amongst them.

“The Spirit of God is poured down upon His People who hear God’s Word. Let the Righteous seek out the Temple and be anointed by God for an earthly mission to make Righteous the people of the world.”

And from out of the cloud the Man saw a Heavenly City formed by shafts of light descending from the sun. And he saw that City hovering over the Sanctuary and the Temple Mount. And the City of Heaven and the Temple of the Sanctuary, with its mounts, were united by those shafts of light. And the shafts of light shone like blue pillars of sapphire reaching upward into the sun.

After a time the invisible City that had appeared returned to Heaven, but the light remained on the seven mounts in the likeness of thrones. And The Man heard The Word speaking to his Soul saying, “The Heavenly City of Light made visible by God shall be hidden to all but the Companions of The Way, anointed.”

And after the City had risen, he felt the presence of The Light. And he saw the sun’s response to the Divine Presence as great flares of light emitted from its surface.

And again The Word spoke saying, “As the Seven Mounts of the Temple have been sanctified by The Presence and bound to Heaven by cords of light beams, consecrate the Mounts of the Temple with holy oils for anointings of the Righteous. Let the faithful ordained to the Ministry of Righteousness be bound to these rocks and to the sun by the anointings, as the Soul and the Spirit are united with God by The Image and The Word in Light.

“God would that earthly Temples be such as this Temple—formed of stones uncut by human hands and joined with God by cords of Light—for the City of God’s Presence will descend upon gathering places such as these here.

“The True Temple of God is the Light of His Image and Word, and the True Temple of man is the Soul wherein dwells The Image and The Word.

“In the final age of the earth, at the threshold of the consummation by Fire, man, as flesh not made in The Image of God, has need of gathering places where the Light is quickened for the good of the Soul. For The Word has revealed that God shall indeed send a Divine redeeming Fire to enlighten Souls and burn up that wickedness first loosed by Satan and the fallen Angels of Darkness, lest the heretical nations ruin the world and the races.

“It is good that humankind restore order on earth in Justice, Love, Peace, Wisdom, and Understanding, thereby limiting the power of evil and of man. The Temple of uncut stones is given for a blessing and for the guidance of the nations and their peoples.”

On that same day, June 6, 1982, The Man marked the lesser mounts of the Temple Mount, the Garden of Oracles, as well as the site to be called God’s Living Waters.

“The soul is not born, nor does it know itself as a soul. The purpose of its earthly journey is to awaken it to self-awareness and to provide it with the ability to continue existence in the Region Beyond the West. Therefore, how could it enter upon earthly life with these things? Were they already there, life and Earth would have no purpose.

“The soul is bodiless within the body, everlasting among things that change and pass away. Man does not perceive his soul, because his senses face outward from the soul, towards earthly things, with which it makes contact. So it is that only the most developed of men can close out the material things about them and turn their senses inward to perceive the soul.

“The soul looks out through the eyes and sees all, which is without, but nothing of this can look in through the eyes and see the soul, even though the soul’s feeling may be reflected there. An eye without a soul behind it sees nothing.

“The earthly and wayward seek only after outward pleasures and the satisfaction of the body. They fall into the snare of disbelief in the soul, and the Law decrees that disbelief shall be easy.

“Wise men, knowing the nature of immortal things, seek not for anything stable here among unstable things.”

-The Kolbrin Bible (MPR:3:20-24)

The Soul is not Born

This is true, in a sense. Since Souls were created by God, they exist outside of the limitations of space and time just as God does. Therefore, we cannot say they were born. They simply have always existed. This is a hard idea to grasp when we are trapped in the material realm where space and time are very real; nonetheless, it is true.

Souls need to Awaken

We shouldn’t say that the purpose of life on Earth is to allow the Soul to awaken. That implies that a Soul cannot be awake without spending time on Earth, which is not true. What is true is that after the Demiurge created beings of matter without Souls, God gave us Souls so that it was possible for us to awaken and be saved.

I’ve never heard it called that, but I have to assume that the “Region Beyond the West” refers to Heaven.

The Soul has no Body

It is true that the Soul has no physical body, but our Spirit, which is simply a Soul that has not been fully awakened and developed, does have a non-material body.

The Soul Sees Without

It is true that the Soul can see what is around us, but we cannot look inside to see the Soul. Even if we look at someone else, we cannot see their Soul. While some think the eyes are the window to the Soul, that is not the case. We cannot see the Soul by looking into our own eyes or another person’s.
