“My Teacher has taught me much regarding the ways of your kind.” “Then I bid you good evening,” he said, and disappeared in the darkness. World for which I write, I am telling you these things that you may be armored with knowledge. When Satan asks you to convert him, beware lest he convert you. When Satan points to Beyond Man, even to Christ, be sure that his Christ is not Antichrist; be sure He is full of compassion, that His heart bleeds for the woes and _weakness_ of the world, that His crown of thorns is the mark of His sacrifice for man, and not merely a becoming ornament. For, as He said: “By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.” And also: “Take heed that no man deceive you. For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ, and shall deceive many, * * * for there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders, insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.” _June 2._ LETTER XLVII THE NEW BROTHERHOOD I WANT to speak of the new race, the coming race. The world is big with child, and the present generation will look with wonder into the clear eyes of the infant that shall redeem its parent. Pin your faith to the standard of the new race, work for it, make the garments that it shall wear, and be ready for its coming. Already you are in touch with those who will help in its training, who will be its teachers and guides. Give yourself also to the Great Work that is planned for America in the coming days. No, you need not spend all your time there; but do not remain away too long. Come and go, that going away you may receive new impressions, and that coming back you may bring the romance of older lands to entertain and inspire the new land. But be ever loyal to the new. In the untrodden wilderness of America there is strength that shall renew you from time to time. The cities of America will be redeemed by the wilderness. The cities are too worldly. They have forgotten God. In the open air, under the open sky, the message may be received by the awakened soul. Send the children out to the wilderness to drink from the uncontaminated springs. The water that flows through lead pipes may refresh the body; but the water of mountain springs refreshes the soul.
