The Prophecy of the Second Advent:
The Resurrection of Our Youth

     By the light of the Emerald Isle, I stand - the victor of two worlds. This hour I have mounted Croagh Patrick to address you from the point of my communion with our LORD, the Ancient of Days. Even so, I manifest my presence here at Camelot for the arcing of worlds, made possible in the physical octave by the very pilgrimage of our students of light.1

     I AM Patrick. I come to anoint you in the hour of your graduation, for indeed each one of you does participate in a spiral of acceleration whereby the whole of the community of light worldwide is raised.

     My beloved, by the sacrifices of the few the many are pushed forward into newness of life. By the crucifixion of Jesus Christ a world is bathed in the essence of his blood that is the light of all life. By that crucifixion we are born anew in his Spirit. Therefore resist not the preaching of the Word of Jesus Christ and him crucified. For where you are, so the LORD is and so where you are that body is broken perpetually for the ennoblement, the upliftment, and the very grace of the soul.

     Neglect not to preach him resurrected and to be the fullness of that joy in the very midst of the crucifixion of a planetary body and her evolution. Neglect not to don the white robes of the ascension, even in the hours when you move through the marts of life as though the descent into hell were physical as darkness surrounds thee and as that darkness, surrounding and intensifying, is rebuked and turned back by thy Word.

     Beloved of my heart, the sacrifice of the journey is multiplied many times over by its joys and blessings, and therefore you have experienced both in some measure. You have experienced the overcoming of doubt and fear by faith, and deprivations by the infilling light of an essence so rare as to remind the soul itself of a light rare in its quality of that Holy Dove descending.

     You have gone to see another world and yet kinfolk, brothers and sisters of a common origin. It is the seed of Joseph, it is the seed of Christ by which you are one with lightbearers across the nations.2

     I AM Patrick. And in my youth the LORD showed me a vision of other youth and of peoples of all ages and of those who were the power elite in our day. And the LORD showed me the vision of the conferment of light and the preaching of his Word even unto the conversion of the leaders of the people themselves.

     Thus I preached of him - a living Saviour, a present Saviour - as the apostles had preached before me. And they could not resist his Word nor his sacred fire burning nor his holy light! Even though their proud hearts were wont to resist, they were consumed by it! And therefore the flourishing of light and the conversion of the thousands was a repetition of the miracles that descended upon Pentecost and in the days and months which followed as hundreds and thousands were converted to the faith in the living Saviour.3

     Now you preach the Word of the Second Advent and they say to you, "Prove it. Prove it! If you have seen Him coming in His glory, show us the evidence." And you say, "Lo, I AM THAT I AM. I have seen Him come into my temple. I have welcomed Him. Behold, He is alive in me forevermore. Lo, because He lives, I AM the living Christ, I AM the Son of God incarnate!"

     Dare you preach such a Word of the Second Advent? After all, it is one thing to hear the Word, to partake of it, to receive its communion within the hallowed circle of the saints; but it is another to proclaim a Messiah who lives only within thyself. What other Messiah is there to proclaim? That Word incarnate - to be believable, to be viable - must be a living testimony that surges forth and does indeed present a living truth by way of proof.

     Is this too hard for thee, too much for thee - you who would enjoy the Holy Spirit in private and in the sanctity of understanding hearts? Beloved ones, this may suffice for awhile, but I can assure you that the Holy Spirit will not leave you as it finds you but forevermore press in and upon you the burden of the LORD that is his light, aware of the plight of that light manifest in every human heart that does obscure the fullness of its glory.

     And therefore, though you might tarry for awhile in the anonymity of the Spirit which its own freedom will accord to you, the hour will come when the very presence of the God of the Earth,4 the Buddha himself, will so sensitize your soul to world need that you will respond by love and love will respond through you - and the glories of him will be beyond all glories to which you could give yourself.

     I AM a giver of souls, a receiver of souls, a lover of souls. How oft I go back to that Croagh Patrick where I communed with ye all, with Lord Sanat Kumara, communing upon the new age and the new vibration and the coming of the Blessed Virgin. For that Cosmic Virgin, in the person of the Archeia Mary, is the initiator of the age, the open door of Christhood unto many sons.

     We saw the prophecy of her coming to our island to the humble of heart neglected by the clerics who could not - for they would not - see. They could not come and behold. They could not believe the testimony of the little lambs of Jesus.

     The coming of the Mother to Knock,5 as the coming of the Woman clothed with the Sun,6 is indeed the revelation of the new age and the raising up of that light within you. She the annunciator and the sponsor of Saint Germain. So he stood in all his glory as the sign of the Son of God in Aquarius. Lo, the Son of man! Lo, the fullness of the four cosmic forces present in that Revelation - four archetypes of the Lion, the Man, the Calf, the flying Eagle.7

     So as the Revelator stands, so he stands because he is the chief disciple, the key proponent of the love of the Guru. The one who so stands is the one who interprets the life and the message of the avatar of the age. Therefore John the Beloved, the beloved so belov'd for the Word of the LORD spoken through him and unto him, becomes the foundation of the next dispensation.

     Ye are all lambs of God, sacrificed upon the altar that the multitudes might live. Who is it who does place the lamb upon the altar? Why, it is God the Father, it is the living Guru, it is Sanat Kumara who takes you, one by one, places you upon the altar. And lo, you are raised up; and the mighty cross of white fire becomes the means whereby you, the sacrificial lamb, become ultimately the bride of the Lamb8 and the one who can convey the very heart of Life to a dying world.

     Except the LORD GOD count you worthy, even as Abraham placed Isaac upon that altar9 - unless you be counted worthy to be the son sacrificed, can you be raised up as the regenerator, as the one who resurrects life even as He is resurrected? The son who is sacrificed is the son who becomes the Word incarnate. Thus the ongoingness of Life and of hierarchy is made known in the very pilgrimage that you have taken to the heart of the Virgin, to the heart of Saint Germain, to the heart of the beloved John, to the heart of the Lamb and the holy angels.

     In the beginning was the Lamb. In the ending is the Lamb. Behold the Lamb of God who taketh away the sins of the world!10

     You know that Lamb to be the chosen one, even the one who stands at the nexus of heaven and earth in the person of the messenger. Consider also that the Lamb who taketh away the sins of the world is the very person of your own Christ Self of whom it is written: Without the shedding of blood, there is no remission of sin.11

     Therefore the vital message of the hour and of the graduate and of the pilgrim of life is this: Be willing that some of the essence of your heart's light be shed abroad as beams of light, as currents of regeneration from the Great Central Sun Magnet, from the beacon of the Lighthouse. Be willing, then, to let that light be released, however painfully or blissfully so. For the remission of sins is the work of the hour, and without the remission of sin there is no transformation in this life or the next or for this world.

     Men seek change. Beloved, they have always sought change and they have sought to implement it by power politics, by war, by massacre of entire towns and lifewaves, by science and invention, by humanism. But, my beloved, the only permanent change that has ever been wrought within this earth or within the very human soul itself is the change wrought by the Holy Spirit who cries in this hour from Croagh Patrick, from Camelot, from the hearts of the sons of God: Go forth! Go forth for the saving of my people! And in the saving of this my people, so save thyself and move from the cosmic cross of white fire unto the crown of the Virgin Mother.

     So be the living Christ! So be the living Mother flame. For, my beloved, in the presence of this light and this light alone is thy fiery destiny become an atonement for the lifewaves of Terra.

     I speak to you who are the ones called graduates and all who seek that diploma of Life. I have been present for other graduations where you have matriculated here and there along life's journeys, and I have seen that these various graduations have not provided for you the fulfillment of your mighty I AM Presence because of the neglect of the one great virtue of love itself - love that overflows the boundaries of being with the courage to share all that one has with those who are the impoverished souls of God.

     I say to you then, let this hour of celebration of victory include within itself the understanding that this be the graduation of graduations and that it be the beginning of the ending of the cycles of woe and the woes that spell the descent of planetary and personal karma, that it be the beginning and the ending of the wheel of life and the rounds of rebirth, that it be a commitment to the fulfillment of that holy purpose to which you were ordained from the very origin of thy life in God.

     I AM Patrick. I stand within and without the Church. I call my own to the conversion of the Blessed Mother. She and she alone holds the key to the age. Through Mary, through the consort of Saint Germain, through the feminine ray Omega - all of life is raised up. Therefore I say to thee, O souls of light, Arise! Arise and stand upon thy feet! [audience rises] for the LORD has bidden thee this day to stand in the fullness of thy Presence and live forevermore as true sons of God!

     I anoint you with the fires of the holy mountain of God, Horeb itself. I anoint you with my initiations of the fifth ray.12 And I send you for the unification of hearts scattered across the lines of faith and dogma and nations and persuasions and languages and barriers self-imposed.

     I send you, the youth of my own flaming heart, to contact the youth all over the world who know that in them there breathes a holy fire. It is the holy fire of the Saviour. Though they know him or know him not, he lives in them for he is come. And the Second Advent in this hour I proclaim to you as the resurrection of our youth who have passed through a long night and decades of crucifixion. Thus I, Patrick, proclaim to you the hour when through you the youth of America and the youth of the world shall be, will be, and are taken down from the cross!

     O receive them, Blessed Mother, into thine arms. Holy disciples, let them now come into that tomb which is become the place prepared as the laboratory of Spirit in Matter whereby they shall, they will, they are proving their fiery destiny! For Saint Germain is come to anoint them and to give to them the holy alchemy of the new birth. As he gave to Jesus the Christ the key to Pisces and to Arthur the key to Camelot, so he comes to give the key to our youth, all of our youth, to the divine identity.

     So by his magnanimous heart, youth of the world shall rise. This, my beloved, is the annunciation of Gabriel Archangel. As I AM the mouthpiece of the one who stands in the presence of God, so I tell you that the tide is turned at inner levels for the youth of this age. And Saint Germain, the seventh angel, does deliver unto his witnesses the alchemical key of the book held in the hand of the beloved one.13

     Therefore, lambs of God, run with the prophecy of the Second Advent. Go and tell them: The LORD has revealed to me this day that I AM the lamb, the sacrificial lamb upon the altar. And lo, I AM raised up and I AM become the sponsor of life and the open door as Isaac was. For God will not take that sacrifice and deny it life but use it to give life unto all.

     Thus proclaim the Word: Yes, I AM the living witness of the Second Advent! Yes, the LORD burns in my heart as a living fire - I cannot deny him! Lo, I AM his presence. And therefore you who hear my word as I speak in the name of youth everywhere know - not because of my fear or my doubt or my impetuousness or even my moments of betrayal, not because of these is the Word of God come to you this day, not because of any manifestation of my own, but, lo, the LORD lives within me, within this holy temple made holy by his flame.

     My brother, my sister, the proof of the Second Advent is that the LORD lives in you. The LORD is come to you in this hour by the very Word and message of Jesus Christ and the saints and the apostles and the disciples whom he made his friends. By his love ye are born again, and that love is present in this hour in the person of the Word incarnate in the Lamb of God. Him I declare unto you. Her I declare unto you. Lo, this is the new age!

     My beloved, I anoint you witnesses unto me in Jerusalem and into the farthest reaches of the earth. Lo, I appoint you and I say to you who yet tremble as the chalice descends: Will you, can you, would you, could you in this hour acknowledge this as thy fiery destiny? [Audience answers "Yes!"]

     O my beloved, it will come to pass and the prophecy will manifest by the very fire of the cross itself. For you are the cross! and upon that cross are you with that LORD. By this Word incarnate that I AM where I AM, by the recitation and the repetition of the Word, that which is spoken in Spirit and in the inner sanctuary of the Holy Grail will become the living Reality by the healing light of the living Saviour.

     Lo, that Saviour manifests now - lo, that Saviour in embodiment. Lo, my beloved, as you go forth to be the fullness of that apostle, know that the command through you "Arise! Arise and make thy bed! Arise, O world, make thy bed!"14 is even now heard and will be heard. And you can summon those youth that you find addicted to their drugs and their subcultures of pleasure and sensuality. They will hear the command of the Son of God and they will live!15 They shall live because you live and because I live in you forevermore.

     I AM Patrick, your brother of light so close at hand. I choose to sponsor you - this graduating class 1980 and all of Montessori International. I choose to lend my flame to my Lord Gautama and Maitreya and Jesus Christ. I choose to bow before the light of the personal Christ that you are. And I choose to be ever the reminder of this the goal of thy Word made flesh.16 So be it in his Name because you make it your own.

     By the sign of the shamrock, I seal your hearts in the Trinity. By the sign of the Blessed Virgin at Knock, I seal the crown of Life17 and of overcoming victory, victory, victory.

     NOTE: The above dictation by Saint Patrick was delivered to the Messenger Elizabeth Clare Prophet at Camelot on June 22, 1980. Commencement exercises for students of Montessori International graduating class followed the dictation.

THE RADIANT WORD
MOTHER MARY'S APPEARANCE AT KNOCK 1879
Excerpt from a Sermon at Croagh Patrick, Ireland by the Messenger Elizabeth Clare Prophet
May 21, 1980
Part II

     Now the great message that comes to us by the Word of John is that if the elect of God do not elect to fulfill their divine office, then those who are following cannot enter in. That's why Jesus said that he had to go all the way in the crucifixion, the resurrection, and the ascension and he said: If I go not the Comforter will not come. He had to go through those initiations so that the Holy Spirit could descend to give us the teaching whereby we could also walk through the open door which no man could shut.

     So the great miracle of Christhood is that as we put on the Light and raise up that Light, then all follow; and if we fail to put on that Light and we abdicate the divine office of Sonship that is offered to us, then those following after cannot walk through the open door. This is the great gift of the example of Jesus Christ - that he set the example for us so that we could follow after him. And the great message is that what one son of God has done all sons of God can do.

     The eighth covenant and the eighth dispensation are the signs of the age of responsibility: that you understand that your Christhood is not for you alone, your ascension is not for you alone but that it is the open door and that if you do not take seriously your path, the others who are waiting as sheep on the hillsides of the world cannot come through the gate because there is no shepherd.

     As you have traveled over Britain and Ireland, you've seen people strangely untethered to the mighty I AM Presence and yet a beautiful people. This is the tribe of Manasseh - and the tribe of Ephraim in the United States. They are the sons of Joseph. Joseph, the favorite son of Jacob, was an incarnation of the Lord Jesus Christ. So these two sons, Ephraim and Manasseh, have the seed of Jesus Christ in his previous incarnation. And it is said that when Jacob blessed the tribes, Manasseh would be great but Ephraim would be greater.

     Manasseh means "those who have forgotten." They have lost the memory. The tribe of Manasseh scattered across these British Isles are here waiting. They're waiting for the coming of the Mother and they're waiting for the message of Saint Germain and they're waiting for the 144,000. They're waiting for the quickening and they're waiting for the true shepherds. Many shepherds are needed for these people. And the moment and the hour of their quickening is come.

     The annunciation of that hour and of that new age was brought by Mother Mary and Saint Joseph and Saint John in their appearance at Knock in 1879. There Mother Mary, as the Divine Woman clothed with the Sun, is fulfilling her advent at Glastonbury when she brought the chalice on behalf of Jesus Christ, on behalf of his descendants through the tribe of Joseph - Joseph's sons, Ephraim and Manasseh. Mother Mary came to Knock to fulfill the spiral of the chalice that was brought here by herself for the sons of Joseph, her own beloved Jesus. She came and planted the Grail. And that Grail is the cup of his blood and his Christ consciousness which would be carried throughout the world through the English-speaking peoples.

     We bring the light and the blood of the new covenant. This is the blood of the new covenant - the eighth ray, the eighth dispensation. And it must be given to those who are the most advanced initiates and to those who have the literal seed of Jesus Christ in them.

     Mother Mary, then, planted that chalice at Glastonbury shortly after Jesus' ascension. And she came almost two thousand years later to inaugurate the new age. And what she told me when we were standing there at Knock was "I came and I stood outside the church because the church could not receive me and could not contain the new wine of the new covenant." (There have been many appearances of Mother Mary inside of churches in other times.)

     She stood with the hierarch of the new age, Saint Joseph - the one who has the key and who is the Father of the Church, both of the Christian dispensation and of the Church Universal and Triumphant. In our own church it is Joseph, Saint Germain, who is the Father of the Church.

     Mary comes with the ascendancy of the Mother flame. She is the liberation of the feminine potential of man and woman. She comes as the archetype of the Guru. She comes as the archetype of Sanat Kumara. She is the central figure in the apparition.

     To her left is John the Revelator, showing us that locked in the Book of Revelation are all of the real teachings of the new age and of the ascended masters. He holds an open book as he stands there. And so her message is that the next two-thousand-year dispensation is heralded and inaugurated by Saint Germain with the teachings of the Book of Revelation illumined.

     Now within the book is the prophecy of the coming of "the little book." And within the book is the prophecy of all of the initiations that are to beset us in the end times and the final judgment of Satan, the dragon, the beast - all of these cast into the lake of fire. Finally Death and Hell are cast into the lake of fire and the New Jerusalem descends and the golden age appears. That's the vision that Saint Patrick had on this mountain - all of this coming to pass.

     So Mother Mary is announcing the coming of the new church, the new age, the new ministry. And she's giving us in her visitation to Knock the dispensation for the Aquarian age - right there in the final quarter of the century 1879.

     Notably absent from the appearance was the person of Jesus Christ although his symbol was seen in the figure of the lamb on the altar. The Lamb is the archetype of the Son of God who is "slain from the foundation of the world." This symbol also recalls Jesus' words to Peter: "Feed my lambs." The teaching is that the appearance of Jesus Christ in the Aquarian age is through the heart and the Christ Self of each one of his lambs. As our souls receive him we enter in to the marriage of the Lamb - oneness with the Father through the Son, as he said, "At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you." It is the teaching that the universal Lamb is become the Light of every man as the Father (through the I AM Presence) and the Son (as Jesus Christ in the pure person of the individual Christ Self) come unto the temple of the obedient, loving child to make their abode with him.

     Thus pointedly Mother Mary appeared at Knock for the announcement of the Aquarian age when through Saint Joseph (Saint Germain who is referred to in Revelation 10:7 as the seventh angel who comes to finish the mystery of God) the prophecy and the revelation of Saint John would clearly define the eighth-ray covenant as the opportunity for the children of God to fully accept their divine Sonship as heirs of God through Christ. "Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world!" Behold Jesus Christ universally present in the hearts of the dear followers of God as and one with the Universal Christ personal to each one.
