God-Man: The Word Made Flesh
And yet Smith's Bible Dictionary, in its seeming efforts to find the meaning of "WORD," fails to quote Luke 8:11 "The SEED IS THE WORD OF GOD." Why is it? Was it because the immortal statement proves beyond peradventure that the seed within us is the savior and not a man without? Error dies hard, but it always dies, and uAmid its worshippers."

WHAT WAS THE "WORD OF THE LORD"
THAT CAME SO OFTEN TO THE
OLD-TIME PROPHETS?
"The Seed is the word"— Luke 8:11.
In all the statements in the Bible that refer to the "Word of the Lord," we find the same great truth told over and over again in the Hebrew Scriptures and trans- lated "Word of the Lord"— the Seed.
"And the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah," or "Joel" or "Ezekiel" or "Hosea."
And thus it followed that after each seed had been saved, the Prophet foretold, admonished and preached truth to the world.

TRANSMUTATION— TURNING WATER INTO WINE
THE Lord of transmutation has ascended the throne of Aquarius to rule the world for 2160 years.
Aquarius, the fifth Son, Sun, of Jacob, circle, or to follow after, is Dan, Hebrew for Judge. Thus the day or time of judgment or understanding will have for its executor the revolutionary planet Uranus, or as it is in Greek, "Oranous." Uranus virtually means Son of Heaven.
This God is surely a suitable ruler for the zodiacal Sign Aquarius, the Man. "And then shall appear the Sign of the Son (Sun) of man in the heavens."
The solar system now being in Aquarius we may expect, and as a matter of fact are experiencing, the prophecies of great astrologians as recorded in Matt. 24th, also Luke 21st.
In the Judgment Day, or time of knowledge, we are due to realize the process by which base metals are trans- muted into gold.
The word gold comes from Or, a product of the Sun's rays or the breath of life.
Life or Spirit breathed into man precipitates brain cells and gray matter which create or build the fluids and structure of physical man.
Or is the seed or W or d — L or d, etc.
"In the beginning was the word * * * the word was God."
God means power.
Thus the emanations from Sun, basic material, are changed to gold, and the process eternally proceeding is being recognized by man at the present day, due to the fact that the planet of gold, Oranous, is now ruling Earth and thereby bringing good judgment upon the people.

God-Man: The Word Made Flesh
Both in Greek and Hebrew any fluid, air, or ether was called water until organized; then it was wine. The rain that falls on the ground and taken up into the organism of tree, vegetable or fruit is changed into wine, i. e.t sap or juice.
The parable of turning water into wine at the marriage at Cana in Galilee is a literal statement of a process taking place with every heart beat in the human organism.
Galilee means a circle of water or fluid — the circulatory system. Cana means a dividing place, the lungs or reeds, the tissue and cells of the lungs.
Biochemists have shown that food does not form the organic part of blood, but simply furnishes the mineral base by setting free the inorganic or cell-salts contained in all foodstuff. The organic part, oil, fibrin, albumen, etc., contained in food is burned or digested in the stomach and intestinal tract, to furnish motive power to operate the human machine and draw air into lungs, Cana, thence into arteries, i. e.} air carriers. Therefore, it is clearly shown that air (spirit) unites with the minerals and forms blood, proving that the oil, albumen, etc., found in blood, is created every breath at the "marriage of Cana of Galilee."
Air was called water or the pure sea, viz.: Virgin Mar-y. So we see how water is changed into wine — blood —every moment.
In the new age, we will need perfect bodies to corre- spond with the higher vibration, or motion of the new blood, for "old bottles (bodies), cannot contain the new
wine."
Another allegorical statement, typifying the same truth reads, "And I saw a new Heaven and a New Earth,"*'. e.f new mind and new body.
Biochemistry may well say with Walt Whitman, "To the sick lying on their backs I bring help, and to the strong, upright man I bring more needed help." To be grouchy, cross, irritable, despondent, or easily discour- aged, is prima facie evidence that the fluids of the stomach, liver, and brain are not vibrating at normal rate, the rate that results in equilibrium or health. Health cannot be qualified, i. e., poor health or good health. There must
[57]
God-Man: The Word Made Flesh
be either health or dishealth; ease or disease. We do not say poor ease or good ease. We say ease or dis-ease, viz., not at ease.
A sufficient amount of the cell-salts of the body properly combined taken as food — not simply to cure some ache, pain or exudation — forms blood that materializes in healthy fluids, flesh and bone tissue.
We should take the tissue cell-salts as one uses health foods, not simply to change health to health, but to keep the rate of blood vibration in the tone of health all the time.
Biochemistry is the sign-board pointing to the open country, to hills and green fields of health and the truth that shall set the seeking Ego free from poverty and disease.
Conservation and transmutation obtain in all the com- mercial world. The force of falling water is transmuted into the product of the factories. Steam, the vibration of copper and carbon discs that turn night into day, the automobiles, "chariots that run like lightning and jostle each other in the streets," are the effects of the transmu- tation of base or basic material.
On some fair tomorrow when the subtle vibrations of the Aquarian Age, directed by Oranous, shall have awak- ened and called to action the millions of dormant cells of the wondrous brain, man will by the power of the lost word restored, conserve and transmute the mineral sub- stance of his body, the soul, I O H N, and with the "product" the precious ointment — oil, Christ, triumph over the cross at Golgotha and ascend to the pineal gland that transmits the christed Son to the Optic Thalamus, the all-seeing Eye of the chamber, and thus furnish "light to all that are in the house."
In these latter days our business world has been domi- nated by a great oil trust, petroleum, mineral oil, petra stone, rock or mineral and oleum; oil was exploited, and then by the law of transmutation changed into gasoline.
The transmutation of gasoline by the miracle of the "conservation of energy" causes the "ascension" of the air ship, and the pathway of the Eagle and the open road of man lie parallel across the vaulted sky.
[58]
God-Man: The Word Made Flesh
And when the Ego shall have triumphed over the car- nal mind and transmuted the crude soul fluids into the gold of the "New Wine," it will ascend to the Father, the upper brain.
"And the temple needs no light of the Sun by day nor Moon by night, for the light of the Lord doth lighten it."
The gospel miracle of turning water into wine is found only in John and appears as a companion piece to the multiplication of the loaves and fishes. The meaning of miracle is: uTo uncover a truth."
We are indebted to Lawrence Parmly Brown for much of the following: (See open Court, May, 1920.)
"This beginning of the signs (or 'miracles') Jesus did in Cana of Galilee, and manifested his glory; and his dis- ciples believed on him." This is the first miracle of Jesus, according to John, just as the changing of the waters to blood was the first plague inflicted upon the Egyptians as one of the miracles of Moses. But the Johannine mar- riage-feast appears to have been recognized as a variant of the great feast of Rabbinical tradition, which is to in- augurate the coming of the Messiah, and at which he shall drink wine made from the grapes that grew in Paradise during the six days of creation and were since preserved in Adam's cave (Buxdorf, Synod. Jud., p. 460). The Fo-pen-hing-t si-king, a Chinese life of Gautama Buddha, relates that this last Buddha declared that when one of his predecessors attended a wedding in the city of Jambunada, he not only kept the foods and drinks miraculously undi- minished during the feast, but caused the host's uninvited guests to come and partake of it, even as the host had silently wished (according to Lillie, Buddhism in Chris- tianity, pp. 169, 170; Popular Life of Buddha, pp. 305, 306).
Compare Eucharistic bread and wine to the flesh and blood of Jesus in the Roman Catholic doctrine.
Words for "bread" are sometimes employed for all solid foods that are transmuted into the flesh or bodies of men, while water or (red) wine is conceived to be changed into blood: Wine is often called the "blood of grapes" or the "blood of the grape," as in the Old Testa- ment (Gen. xlix. 11; Deut. xxxii. 14, etc.); and the
[59]
God-Man: The Word Made Flesh
juice of the grape is naturally conceived as having been transmuted from water by the heat of the sun, which is also the chief factor in the fermentation of wine.
In the Egyptian legend of Horus of Edfu, that god smites the enemies of Ra, and the latter says to the former: " 'Thou makest the water of Edfu (red with blood) like grapes, and thy heart is rejoiced thereat.' Hence the water of Edfu is called (the water of grapes)" (Sayce, Rel. Anc. Eg. and Bab., p. 220). In the De- struction of Mankind, the deluge is poured out from seven thousand jars of human blood, representing the red color of the Nile waters shortly after the beginning of the inun- dation (Records of the Past, VI, pp. 105-112).
The mythic marriage is primarily that of the sun (see Phaedrus, I, fab. 6), either with the earth or the moon — whence, doubtless, the Athenians at one time celebrated marriages at the new moon (when she was in conjunction with the sun — Proclus ad Hesiod. Oper., 782). Prac- tically nothing is related of the Johannine bridegroom, and there is no reference to the bride; but in the mythic view the bridegroom is a mere variant of Jesus (the figur- ative "bridegroom" of John iii. 29, cf. Mark. ii. 19, 20, etc.), while his mother and the bride are duplications of wider variation. Thus the Virgin Mary is often called the Rose of Sharon and Lily of Israel; epithets from Can- ticles ii, where the bride is "a rose of Sharon and a lily of the -valleys," who is brought by the bridegroom to "the banaueting-house" — literally "the house of wine," as in the Septuagint.
[60]
JOHN THE BAPTIST
JOHN, or loannes, is the ointment, oil, that flows down the spinal cord from the reservoir of God sub- stance in the upper brain, the "Most High/' the heaved-up place, the Heave-n, within.
"We know that we have in heaven a more enduring substance " — Paul.
The mysterious circumstances connected with the Bible story of John the Baptist and the information given in Smith's Bible Dictionary prove the wholly divine origin of that which was called "John," but which means oil in Greek. John's father was said to be a priest of Abia, or Abijah. This latter, in Hebrew, means "Whose father is Jehovah." Jehovah is the upper brain, the Most High — the "crystalline dew" referred to in Medieval Hebrew.
Before the oil is raised by the seed, thus giving one- tenth (tithe) to the Lord, it is called "natural" or "wild," "not cultivated," like wild flowers — "wild honey." So John was a wild man — a native. A parable? Most certainly !
"His food was locusts and wild honey."
The pineal gland and the pituitary body secret fluids called milk and honey in the Scriptures.
Locust means destructive, devourer — a glutton.
Deut. 28:42: "All thy tree (tree of life and fruit seed) shall the locusts (sex desire) consume."
The reader will please remember that the Bible is Secret Doctrine, or that which is within and not without. History is a record of outward things.
John, the natural man, was an eater of the fruit of the tree of life, with a girdle of camel's hair (from Gimel the 3rd letter of the Hebrew alphabet, which pertains to the external male organ). But John, like the prodigal son, changed his mind and is made to say, "One cometh after me (to get me) the latchet of whose shoes (pisces — the feet — fishes) I am not worthy to unloose."
[61]
God-Man: The Word Made Flesh
Latchet and shoes are emblems of cover, or cup- swaddling cloth. The oil in the seed, when born, is cov- ered or protected by a crust of mineral salts, which, when anointed by being baptized in Jordan (John), is loosened (uHe that saveth his life shall loosen it." See mistrans- lation of Scripture) in order that the shell may fall apart when the seed, Jesus, goes over the cross, thus, "Father, remove the cup (cover or latchet) from me," in order that the precious material may ascend into the pineal gland.
[62]
THE PLAGUES OF EGYPT
r I iHESE same locusts, sex appetite, gluttony, or de- vourers, are and always have been the plagues, i. e.} sickness and disease in all peoples in all ages.
And now, when evil doers wax worse and worse, a ma- jority of human beings are deliberately and "with malice aforethought," committing suicide, through eating and drinking for pleasure, and indulging in sexual excesses on every plane, in every way known to carnal perverts.
Officers of the law tell us that licentiousness has surely reached its limit. The "Hand-writing on the Wall" appears. In proof of this allow us to quote the following by the great poet, Rabindranath Tagore, printed in the August 1st issue of the Los Angeles Examiner: "Paris, July 31. — I came from Asia expecting to find Europe a vale of tears, a desert of misery and grief. With ten million dead — 10,000,000 stricken suddenly by shell or bullet from the roster of the earth, snatched from their firesides and their babies and the women whom they loved — what should one visualize but a Europe draped in black, a Europe where the innocent laughter of a tiny child would seem a gross incongruity?
"Yet Europe weeps not. She has cast off her black, and is wearing her brightest colors, her most splendid plumes. Her men are already forgetting their slaught- ered brothers in the incessant effort to profit from the abnormal financial conditions prevailing because of the war; her women — ah, her women! They are snatching flowers, bright red poppies, from the graves of their fallen husbands and sons, to wear them in their hair.
"Ten million dead — and naught but dust already! Were these 10,000,000 the only sober, sane living people in Europe? Are those who are left only those consumed with avarice, selfishness and the desire to be amused at no matter what cost? Or is this Europe, which is dancing on its own coffin, a Europe gone stark mad?
[63]

"Paris, turn thine eyes to the south. There a templed city once stood, a living, breathing defiance to an inevitable death — a death that came sooner than it thought, and overwhelmed it. The name of that city was Babylon. Well named was Babylon ! Well named also Paris, for call to mind the fate of her sister gods.
