Delay Not


Man should not assume that he has an eternity to choose the Path of Return ~ g

[QUOTING]

As to those who are indifferent, thinking that they have many births before them and need not hasten, the Master bids the disciples:

"Preach ye unto the whole world, saying unto men: 'Strive together that ye may receive the Mysteries of Light in this time of stress, and enter into the Kingdom of Light. Put not off from day to day, and from cycle to cycle, in the belief that ye will succeed in obtaining the Mysteries when ye return to the world in another cycle.

"Such men know not when the number of Perfect Souls [shall be filled up]; for when the number of Perfect Souls has been completed, I will then shut the Gates of Light, and from that time none will be able to come thereby, nor will any go forth thereafter, for the number of Perfect Souls shall be completed, and the mystery of the First Mystery be perfected -- the mystery by which all hath come into existence, and I am that Mystery.

"From that hour no one shall any more enter into the Light, and none shall come forth, in that the time of the number of Perfect Souls shall be fulfilled, before I set fire to the world, that it may purify the aeon, and veils, the firmaments, and the whole world, and also all the matters that are still in it, the race of humankind being still upon it.

"At that time then, the Faith shall show itself more and more, and also the Mysteries in those days And many souls shall pass through the cycles of transmigrations of body and come back into the world in those days; and among them shall be some who are now alive and hear Me teach concerning the consummation of the number of Perfect Souls, [and in those days] they shall find the Mysteries of Light and shall receive them. They shall mount up to the Gates of Light, and shall find that the number of Perfect Souls is complete, which is the Consummation of the First Mystery and the Gnosis of the Pleroma; they will find that I have shut the Gates of Light, and that from that hour no one can come in or go forth thereby.

"Those souls will then cry within through the Gates of Light, saying: 'Master, open unto us.' And I will answer unto them, saying, 'I know not whence you are'. And they will say unto Me, 'We have received the Mysteries, and we have fulfilled all Thy doctrine; Thou didst teach us on the High Ways.' And I will answer unto them, saying: 'I know not who ye are, ye who have practiced iniquity and evil even unto this day. Wherefore go [hence] into the Outer Darkness, where there is weeping and gnashing of teeth."

The Christ, speaking through Jesus, discourses with His disciples, eleven years after the Resurrection - The Pistis Sophia / The Books of The Savior - translated by George.R.S. Mead

[END QUOTING]

Too little, too late.

Be reminded that the Banquet has been prepared. The Bridegroom awaits. The Doors to the Hall of Eternity have been thrown wide open. Come all who may, for when the Banquet Hall has been filled, these Doors shall close.
