WHO MAY BECOME MEMBERS |
| |
Any person, of at
least 18 years of age, of any race, color, of either sex, may become
members of the Brotherhood of the White Temple College and Church if
they are willing to subscribe to the Doctrine of the Brotherhood and
will work to advance themselves in knowledge and aid in the
establishment of the Christ-kingdom. They must be willing to use the
knowledge they gain to help others as well as themselves. They must
be willing to support the Church and its work, according to their
means, and be constantly alert for an opportunity to spread the
Truth taught wherever fertile ground is found. |
|
|
|
| |
We must remember the
saying of Jesus, "Unless ye come as little children, ye shall in
nowise enter the kingdom of heaven." We must all come as children,
our minds cleansed by the Spiritual Baptism of Cosmic Fire, of all
old ideas and concepts, for you will be taught many new
interpretations of oft-quoted passages of the Bible. |
|
|
|
| |
Regardless of race
or color, all SOULS are from the One Source, the Divine Spirit and
all are equally welcome in the Christ-kingdom. We only ask that your
purpose in gaining Truth be unselfish, and for the betterment of the
world as well as yourself. |
|
|
|
| |
If you desire to
align yourself with Light and aid to banish the darkness of negation
in the world, you are invited to become one with us. |
|
|
|
| |
Wherever possible,
churches will be formed and ministers placed in charge to hold
religious, metaphysical services and aid the members in healing and
mastery of self. Our ministers are ordained and can perform marriage
ceremonies, baptism and carry out the ritual for the burial of those
who pass through transition. Through the work of our ministers, the
written lesson, and your own effort, you are prepared for a place in
the coming Christ-kingdom. |

HOW YOU MAY JOIN |
| |
You may become a
member by filling out the various Application Forms showing the
manner in which you will support the Brotherhood and its work with
your means. The Application Form(s) should be enclosed with your
first contribution and either mailed to the Headquarters of the
Brotherhood, or handed to any ordained minister of the Church. |
|
|
|
| |
At the end of each
week, all applications received during the preceding week will be
passed on, and if your application is accepted, you will receive
your first written lesson(s), membership card, etc. You then become
a worker in the body of the Christ-kingdom. |
|
|
|
| |
Your membership
continues throughout life unless severed by your own desire, or by
action of the executive committee of the Brotherhood for cause. You
may retain your membership in another church of your choice, if you
wish, as affiliation with the Brotherhood Church is designed to give
you instruction in the deeper mysteries of the teachings of Jesus. |
|
|
|
| |
There is a minimum
charge for membership in the Brotherhood. Love Offerings may be made
according to your means or you may tithe according to the ancient
law of the first fruits, if you desire. The Brotherhood is open to
all who desire to live the Christ-life and advance the Kingdom of
God on earth. |
|
|
|
| |
You will observe on
the application forms, that you may enroll in the Brotherhood on a
voluntary monthly contribution basis, or you may tithe according to
your income; contributions or tithes are greatly appreciated.
Enclose your donation with your application and mail to
Headquarters. All contributions are used for spreading truth, so all
may have an equal chance to drink from the fountain of Eternal
Light. |

Beloved Chelas: |
| |
- In obedience
to the commands of the Avatar Harjas, the World-Teacher of the
Golden Age, we are calling to all Sincere Students of Truth who
desire to enlist under "The
Banner of Shamballa"
as workers, to prepare the way for the "Lord
of the World",
the Avatar "Harjas" who is the incarnation of the
Christ-Consciousness in the present Age.
- All over the
world, enlightened men and women are preparing themselves to be
disciples of the "Great
Soul" when
he emerges from Shamballa to lead the World Spiritually and
materially into the New Golden Age of Brotherhood.
- The
requirements for entering the Fellowship are simple. One must
dedicate their life to the Search for Truth. They must Spiritually
work to prepare the way for the Coming World-Teacher. They must
follow the simple instructions, which will be given monthly, for
attunement with the Avatar. Those who earnestly and sincerely work
for the Avatar will eventually make personal contact with him and
receive his personal instructions. It is not necessary to be a
member of the Brotherhood. The instructions will be given freely
to every sincere soul who is willing to prepare for discipleship,
and who will earnestly strive to bring the message of Truth to
those groping in darkness and work without faltering to establish
the Brotherhood of Man and the Christ-kingdom on earth.
- In return, you
will receive a message direct from the Brotherhood teachers each
month. A message that will be a lamp to light your way on the Path
of Service and guide you to direct contact with the World-Teacher.
If you desire to become one of the disciples of the Avatar, fill
out the accompanying request.
