...When I said, "Except a man be born again, he cannot enter into the Kingdom of God," I disclosed the only and true way to this kingdom. During my time on earth there were some who understood this great truth, and since that time, there have been some who not only understood this truth, but found the way and followed it until they reached the goal and are now inhabitants of this kingdom; but the vast majority of men--priests, teachers and people--have never understood, and have never sought to find the way. This great truth to their spiritual senses has been, as it were, a hidden thing; and as they read or even recite the same to their hearers it has no special significance, but is merely as one of the moral precepts, such as "Love your neighbor as yourself, and with not as much importance attached to it as to some of these moral instructions.
And so, all down the ages since the great kingdom has been waiting for men, they, though in all sincerity and in love towards God, have sought for and to a greater or lesser extent, found only the kingdom of the perfect man, and have neglected to seek for and missed the kingdom of the divine angel.
THEN, AS I HAVE SAID, THIS DIVINE LOVE OF THE FATHER, WHEN POSSESSED BY THE SOUL OF MAN, MAKES HIM IN HIS SUBSTANCE AND ESSENCE DIVINE LIKE UNTO THE DIVINITY OF THE FATHER, AND ONLY SUCH SOULS CONSTITUTE AND INHABIT THE CELESTIAL OR DIVINE KINGDOM OF GOD; AND THIS BEING SO, IT MUST BE READILY SEEN THAT THE ONLY WAY TO THE CELESTIAL KINGDOM IS THAT WHICH LEADS TO THE OBTAINING OF THIS DIVINE LOVE, WHICH MEANS THE NEW BIRTH; AND WHICH NEW BIRTH IS BROUGHT ABOUT BY THE FLOWING INTO THE SOULS OF MEN THIS DIVINE LOVE, WHEREBY THE VERY NATURE AND SUBSTANCE OF THE FATHER [POSSESSES THE SOUL], AND WHEREFROM MEN CEASE TO BE THE MERELY CREATED BEINGS, BUT BECOME THE SOULS OF MEN BORN INTO THE DIVINE REALITY OF GOD.
Then the only way to the Celestial Kingdom being by the New Birth, and that birth being brought to men only by the inflowing and working of this Divine Love, and whether or not a man shall experience this birth depending in its initiative on the man himself, the question arises how or in what way can a man obtain this Divine Love and this New Birth and the Celestial Kingdom. And because the way is so easy and simple, it may be that men will doubt the truth of my explanation, and continue to believe and place all their hopes upon the orthodox doctrines of the vicarious atonement--the washing of the blood, my sufferings on the cross and bearing all the sins of the world, and my resurrection from the dead--doctrines as harmful to the salvation of mankind as they are without truth or foundation in fact or effect.
THE ONLY WAY THEN IS SIMPLY THIS: THAT MEN SHALL BELIEVE WITH ALL THE SINCERITY OF THEIR MINDS AND SOULS THAT THIS GREAT LOVE OF THE FATHER IS WAITING TO BE BESTOWED UPON EACH AND ALL OF THEM, AND THAT WHEN THEY COME TO THE FATHER IN FAITH AND EARNEST ASPIRATIONS, THIS LOVE WILL NOT BE WITHHOLDEN FROM THEM. AND IN ADDITION TO THIS BELIEF, PRAY WITH ALL THE EARNESTNESS AND LONGINGS OF THEIR SOULS THAT HE OPEN UP THEIR SOULS TO THE INFLOWING OF THIS LOVE, AND THAT THEN MAY COME TO THEM THE HOLY SPIRIT TO BRING THIS LOVE INTO THEIR SOULS IN SUCH ABUNDANCE THAT THEIR SOULS MAY BE TRANSFORMED INTO THE VERY ESSENCE OF THE FATHER'S LOVE....
