A special Remembrance of The Child Service was held last evening in the Chapel of the Holy Child at 6:00 pm. The Remembrance of The Child Service begins the Second Advent Sunrise Vigil, which commences January 30th and continues through February 6th. Sunrise Divine Service is scheduled throughout the Vigil, weather permitting. Click the audio button below to hear my homily during that special service of remembrance.

“My son, my unseen little one now asleep in comfortable darkness, gathering your strength for the coming struggle, may the Great God of Life add His strength to your strength. You will be a great one among men, for you were conceived in love and not in lust.

“Within the guardian of my heart you remain as a wonderful mystery. I am overcome with awe, for within you there is something God inspired. It bestows strange powers upon you, so that at the appointed time you fight for air and light. You will be a man of courage, for such men are born to the fearless and good. Strength and beauty, courage and modesty have mated, that you might be the heir of their gifts. Your heritage was chosen by those who gave you life.

“It is your fate, my son, as a child born of woman, to fight and grasp, to grimly hold onto life as you reach across to this side of the earthly portal. There are dark powers that would drag you back, but you are not for them. O let the Great Light be ever with you, as a watchman’s fire on a lonely road, when the evil powers beset your way.”

-The Kolbrin Bible (Man:29:19-21)

Coming Struggle

This part of the Kolbrin Bible was written thousands of years ago, so the struggle it refers to maybe something already in the past, but the idea applies just as well to the struggle happening now between the forces of Light and Darkness. This is not a struggle, or war, in the conventional sense, with people killing each other. Those of Darkness may kill, but those of Light do not. Instead, we seek to convert those caught up in the lies of the dark one to the knowledge of truth and love.

Great God of Life

There is only one true God and that is the Great God of Life. He is not the God of life and death. Death is not His creation and it is not something He desires. Death comes from the false god, the god of matter. It is only because we are in the world of matter that our physical bodies are subject to pain, disease, and death. It the Spiritual Realm of the Great God of Life, those things don’t exist.

God will give us the strength to stand up to the forces and being of darkness if we follow His will and help in the Great Plan to restore the physical realm back to it’s original state as spirit.

Child Born of Woman

What the writer is saying here is that a person born into the realm of matter must fight and grasp to hold onto life. It is easier for some then for others, but we all struggle is some ways to survive in this realm where there are so many things that can take physical life from us. It isn’t so much that physical life is important, but it is important that we awaken and develop our spiritual faculties while we are in the physical realm. Since that takes time—typically twenty years, or more—we must try to stay alive in this realm as long as possible, but without surrendering to the forces of darkness.

The Great Light

I love this phrase! I can’t think of a better thing to say to a person than “Let the Great Light be ever with you.” Unfortunately, most people have strayed so far from God and Truth that they don’t know what the Great Light is or how to obtain it. We in Cosolargy know that the best source of that Light on Earth is the Spiritual Sun, so we practice a spiritual form of sun gazing to allow that Light into us.

“The strand of DNA in a single cell is six feet, six inches long. That’s a lot of code when you consider that the size of the characters in the code is microscopic. Think of the enormous amount of information packed into it. Moreover, the type of order found in DNA, which is the basis of life, is not simple, symmetric order. It is a highly complex, specified order that might be compared to the notches on a key, which are highly irregular, but also highly specified. They must be so in order to open a particular lock—a kind of specificity does not happen by accident because it is a kind of language. Consider, for example, the arrangement of the letters in this sentence, or for that matter, in this entire book. They did not and could not have happened by accident. You may not agree with what I have written, but you have to admit that putting all these letters together to communicate what I want to tell you must have required at least a minimal degree of intelligence. This kind of premeditated organization is what is found in the DNA and the RNA. Indeed, three things found in the universe that have the property of specificity are 1) human language, 2) computer code, and 3) the information in DNA and RNA. It should go without saying that whenever we see information such as that, there is always an intelligent input that accounts for it, which indicates convincingly that intelligence is behind the origin of life. Nevertheless, after more than 60 years, science teachers in schools and colleges are still teaching their students that matter is all there is. However, not everyone remains in denial, and many today are coming to the realization that the basic premise of Scientific Materialism simply cannot be correct.

“This awakening, which is now gaining speed, began more than 40 years ago. After Click’s discovery, a few brave souls broke from tradition and accepted the fact that there must be some sort of guiding intelligence responsible for the origin of life. I know this from personal experience because I read a book more than forty years ago that put forth that argument. Published in 1975, it refuted the idea that intelligence, consciousness, and awareness came about because of evolution.”

-Stephen Hawley Martin in the book Christ Consciousness

Strand of DNA

As the first sentence of the quote indicates, a single strand of DNA found in one of our cells will stretch to 6.5 feet long when uncoiled, but because it is tightly coiled, it takes up a small fraction of an inch in our cells. What Mr. Martin is telling us is that there is an enormous amount of information stored in a strand of DNA, and that information implies order and intelligence in each cell of our body.

Highly Complex Order

Martin adds that not only is there an order to the information stored in each DNA strand, but it is a complex order. He compares it to the notches in a key. While a plain key may be simple, various combinations of notches can be added to the key so that thousands of different keys can be made, each one capable of opening a different lock. He is saying that DNA works in a similar way. In other words, the strand of DNA in a blood cell is specialized so that when the cell reproduces, it will produce another blood cell, not some other type of cell.

Guiding Intelligence

Martin eventually says that some experts are now saying that this complex arrangement of DNA implies that there is a guiding Intelligence that is responsible for life. This is a reasonable conclusion, but it must be noted that we are still dealing with only the life of the physical body.

Beyond Matter

The quote does not follow on with what I think is a logical conclusion: this Guiding Intelligence had to exist before the physical universe was created. If there was some Intelligence before matter existed, that intelligence had to be spiritual. So what these studied of DNA really prove is that there must be a realm of spirit that existed before the realm of matter and the guiding intelligence of that spiritual realm is what most of us call God.
