Temple of Light
December 21, 2025 Service Notice
Evening Meditation
Our next Temple of Light service will be an EVENING MEDITATION, on SUNDAY EVENING, December 21st @ 5 p.m. Pacific Time and 8 p.m. Eastern Time, with Anne Blaney and David Barnes speaking from Salmon Arm, British Columbia. For our meditation, here are a few words spoken in an Assembly session by Martin Cecil:
Ye shall not see me henceforth till ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the Name of the Lord. There must be he who comes in the Name of the Lord for anyone to say, “Blessed is he”—and this is our concern: the “he” that comes in the Name of the Lord. This has reference both to a point of focus and also to the identity of the collective expression of that One, because we are looking here at the Body of the Son of God, the Body of the Archangel. We have our responsibility to provide what is necessary so that others may say, "Blessed is he that cometh in the Name of the Lord," because we ourselves, individually and together, come in the Name of the Lord. I am come in the Name of the Lord. Here I am. The human mind would be inclined to translate this as, "Ye shall not see me henceforth till ye shall say, Blessed is he or she who cometh in the Name of the Lord," or "Blessed are they who come in the Name of the Lord." No, because there's only One in fact—and we know this if we are coming in the Name of the Lord. And we differentiate that spiritual coming according to our particular roles in the fulfilment of our coming, so that there may be for the world, He that cometh in the Name of the Lord. The reality of the design needs to emerge out of the Spiritual Core. One of the characteristics of the Core can be described by the words, stillness and quietness. There must, collectively speaking, be a still place, out of which springs what is differentiated, spiritually speaking, taking form in a variety of ways. The whole exercise is designed so that the desolate world may be given an opportunity to say, "Blessed is he that cometh in the Name of the Lord." Have we not seen Him? We certainly see Him if we have accepted the responsibility of being in His Name. In His Name is in His spirit, in His Word, in what He is. If we are in that, we see Him. Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.
In these days of the Christmas Season, we come in the Name of the Lord, saying, Glory to God in the Highest and on Earth Peace and Good Will toward All. david and anne
