"I AM A TOILET--ARE YOU?"--MO September 8, 1972 NO.264--GP

Copyrighted September, 1973 by The Children of God Box 31, London WC2E 7LX England, or B.P. 752 75123 Paris Cedex 03 France

1. I WAS SO HOLY AND GOOD IN SO MANY WAYS, AND SUCH A DEDICATED CHRISTIAN, I WOULD HAVE BEEN SO SELF-RIGHTEOUS AND HOLIER-THAN-THOU YOU COULDN'T HAVE TOUCHED ME with a ten foot pole! I couldn't have stood these stinking hippies and their filth, and I never could have understood or stood them, I never could have had sympathy or compassion or really loved them, if God hadn't permitted me, in fact nearly forced me, into such a situation so that I cannot brag about my own holiness being suitable enough to suit the church!--I have nothing to brag about!

2. NOW I WOULD HAVE TO SAY TO MY ENEMIES, LIKE ST. DOMINIC, "YES, YOU'RE RIGHT:--I'M GUILTY OF ALL OF THESE THINGS! In fact, I'm much worse than you even think: I'm terrible! But look at the Lord: Isn't He wonderful? In spite of me and what I'm like, look at the Lord. Look at my Children and what the Lord's doing through them!"

3. GOD HAD TO PUT ME IN SUCH A SITUATION SO THAT IT'S IMPOSSIBLE FOR ME TO CONDEMN ANYBODY for almost anything, because there is hardly anything that one of our dirtiest hippies have done that I haven't also done!--Which is really what the Lord Himself did when He descended to the earth and took on the clown clothes of humanity! He suffered all the things humans suffer.

4. GOD HAD TO DO IT TO HUMBLE ME AND KEEP ME HUMBLE, or this whole thing might have gone to my head. It could have, but I'm so nothing and such a mess that, when God even speaks to me about "David", I'm almost afraid and ashamed to say it because I feel so unworthy! But I know God is trying to show it's only Him. The David of the spirit is all His creation, all His work:--Not this foul David that you can see with your naked eye, but that David which the Lord has created by His Spirit, the king of His people!

5. (PROPHECY AND WEEPING:)"FOR IT IS I THAT HATH MADE THEE, AND NOT THOU THYSELF! For My hand alone hath fashioned thee. For I did take thee from that exalted pedestal whereon thou wast enthroned, and did break thee and cast thee into the dust, that I might mold thee and make thee a better vessel."

6. I WAS AN ORNAMENT IN THE HOUSE OF GOD, a beautiful vessel sitting on the mantelpiece, which many did look upon and admire, the praise of my mother's friends! I was the church's creation and doting son, the very way they wanted me to be. But God had to cast me off and break me and grind me into the dirt, so that He could take me and fashion me again into what He wanted me to be, which was not at all what the church wanted me to be! In fact, He has made me into such an ugly vessel that I am like the slop bucket under the bed as far as the church people are concerned!

7. BUT I AM NOW A WHOLE LOT MORE USEFUL AS THE POTTY UNDER THE BED, to catch all their excrement and dung that they would have thrown out of the window! God has let me catch it, and has reconstituted it, and He can now use it again.

8. DO YOU KNOW THAT'S WHAT THEY DO IN THOSE SPACESHIPS? They supply the water for the men by giving them an initial supply of water, and then their urine is put through a refining process in flight so that they are later literally drinking their own piss as the Bible says! They filter it, purify it, distil it, reconstitute it, and drink it again! Man likes to glorify the spaceman, but doesn't like to talk about these embarrassing subjects. But that is exactly what they are doing, because they can't carry that much water in space.

9. AND THAT'S WHAT GOD HAS DONE WITH US: HE HAS SHOWN HE CAN RE-USE THE WASTE MATERIALS OF THE EARTH, the weak things, the vile, the foolish, the broken, the worthless, the outcasts and castoffs, and literally reconstitute them and make them better and more useful vessels than the fancy ornaments the church has sitting around on its mantelpiece that you can look at but not touch! The church today tries to separate themselves from the hippies because the church people think themselves so perfect, so holy!

10. BUT GOD HAS GIVEN US THE DREGS OF SOCIETY AND THE OFF-SCOURING OF THE EARTH TO SHOW WHAT THE LORD CAN DO WITH IT! He's made me like the potty under the bed to catch it so it won't go to waste, and we've turned it into living water like gold!--Living water that is multiplied and poured out again and again and again!

11. YOU REMEMBER THAT PICTURE OF AQUARIUS, where he is pouring out his water urn? Did you ever notice that his vessel never runs out of water? The more we pour out the more God pours in! He helps us to take these despised vessels and He re-makes them through us and makes more Aquarians, more little Davids, more little Moseses, all pouring out the living water!

12. THE POTTY UNDER THE BED IS A VERY DESPISED, FILTHY, MENIAL VESSEL, BUT WHAT WOULD THE SYSTEM DO WITHOUT IT? The dirtiest job in the house is cleaning the toilet! I've always had a special burden for toilets, and it seems I always wind up cleaning them--the filthiest thing in the house! I put stuff in the toilet every day and brush and clean, and when I am through I'm proud of it! I look at it and think, "How beautiful!"

13. IT'S THE MOST USEFUL THING IN THE HOUSE!--WHAT WOULD WE DO WITHOUT A TOILET? The whole house would be filthy! The toilet catches all this offscouring of the earth and it sends it down through the pipes into the sewer and through God's reconstitution plant, the filtering of the earth, the sewage disposal plant, where the waste matter is removed and the dirty solids are returned to the earth, sometimes even as fertiliser.

14. THE PURIFIED WATER IS THEN RELEASED INTO THE RIVERS AND THE SEAS AND THE LAKES and returned to the clouds by evaporation. The final step of purification: Distillation by being caught up into the clouds to return to Earth later as rain!--With us it'll be our reign!--And "They can't stop our rain!"--Or reign!

15. SO GOD'S SYSTEM DOES IT ALL! BUT WHAT AM I?--I'M JUST A TOILET THAT'S CATCHING THE WASTE OF THE SYSTEM! Then God does the reconstituting and makes it usable again. Come to think about it, I never heard any preacher call himself a toilet!--I wonder why? You know what the System will say of me?--"We knew he had a morbid fascination for everything dirty and filthy!"

16. SO I AM A TOILET!--BUT WHAT COULD WE DO WITHOUT TOILETS? I love to see them clean and smelling nice and fresh! I was this vase which the Lord cast off the shelf and broke and stomped into the mud, and then made of me a potty under the bed!--A better vessel!

17. THE LORD SAID HE MADE ME A BETTER VESSEL: NOT A MORE BEAUTIFUL or a more decorative or pretty one, but a better one: a toilet. I have heard them pray, "Lord make me a better vessel!" but I never heard 'em pray, "Lord make me a toilet!"--I never heard of anybody wanting to be a toilet!--They all want to be something more beautiful and useless--not useful and essential like a toilet!

18. BUT WHAT VESSEL IN THE HOUSE IS MORE USEFUL THAN THE TOILET? You can go weeks without eating and days without drinking liquids, but you can't go very long without going to the toilet! So you might go for quite some time without a glass to drink out of, and a plate to eat on, but you need the toilet all the time!

19. THERE ARE MANY VESSELS IN THE HOUSE, SOME TO HONOUR AND SOME TO DISHONOUR, BUT WHICH IS MORE NEEDED? The beautiful vase standing as an ornament on the mantel, lovely to the eye, or even the dishes and the pots and pans in the kitchen? No, the most needed vessel in the whole house is the lowly or the toilet!

20. WHICH CAN YOU NOT DO WITH OUT? When the health inspector comes along and checks your house, he doesn't look for the pretty vases or the pots and pans! But there is one vessel that he is absolutely insistent that you must have in your house or available, and that's the toilet!

21. SPEAKING OF VESSELS, THE TOILET IS THE ONLY VESSEL REQUIRED BY LAW! God has a great house, too! He is the law, and the most important vessel in His house which He requires is the toilet. Now you see, what I say about myself is true about each of You, because we're all in the same ministry.--Going out and salvaging the waste products of the Earth!

22. WE ARE TAKING THE EARTH'S POLLUTION AND TURNING IT INTO FRESH AND LIVING WATER, clean and pure. Every one of you is a little toilet, the most essential vessel in God's house! I always wondered why I had such a fascination for toilets. I'm always the one that had the burden to take care of them. I needed to know I was a toilet, too, so I wouldn't get exalted.

23. GOD HAS MADE ME A TOILET!--AND YOU KNOW SOMETHING ELSE ABOUT A TOILET?--IT IS THE ONE VESSEL IN THE HOUSE THAT EVERYBODY IS ASHAMED OF! They're so ashamed of it that every time they use it they have to go in and lock the door! They're even embarrassed about using it! Systemites are still ashamed of the toilet and of going to the toilet!--Just like they're ashamed of me and you!

24. YET THAT IS THE MOST ESSENTIAL VESSEL IN THE WHOLE HOUSE, and the most necessary physical function that their body has to perform is going to the toilet! You can die much quicker from not being able to have bowel movements or urinate or eliminate waste matter than from being unable to take food in and new material. You can go longer without the new material than you can without getting rid of the old!

25. YOU KNOW WHAT'S WRONG WITH THE WORLD TODAY?--THEY ARE NOT TAKING CARE OF THEIR POLLUTION! The greatest problem in the world today is not even war.--It is that they are not able to cope with the pollution! Not only the pollution of the elements, but what is the greatest problem of society today?-They are not able to cope with the pollution that their society has produced in their own children!

26. HOW DO MOST SYSTEMITES LOOK AT THEIR OWN CHILDREN, THE HIPPIES, THE PRESENT GENERATION?--They're embarrassed and ashamed of them! They're ashamed of what they've produced, but they're having to live in the midst of their own shit, the horrible little monsters they've produced! Their children are a pollution to the world! Everywhere you go "those awful hippies" are the most distasteful and hated of all!

27. PEOPLE HATE HIPPIES MORE THAN THEY HATE SMOG! They're more afraid of the hippies overthrowing the American Government and causing riots than they are of the pollution of the elements that might choke them to death! They're spending more money on police and riot equipment to control the hippies than trying to control the pollution of the elements! They're more worried about the pollution of society and their damned System! America is more worried about the youth and what the youth are involved in, crime, drugs and so on, than they are about eating, drinking, smoking and polluting themselves to death!

28. THE POLLUTION OF SOCIETY IS THE GREATEST POLLUTION OF TODAY, and it is the thing that bothers them the most, and they don't know how to get rid of it. They haven't even found a toilet for it, much less a means of reconstituting it! They haven't been able to flush the kids out of their System! What they would like to do is just dig a hole and bury the kids, and that's what they'll be doing one of these days! The offscouring of the earth will be as dung upon the ground!

29. WHY?--BECAUSE THEY HAVE REJECTED GOD'S TOILETS! Do you know that when Naaman the leper, second man in command in all Syria next to the king himself, wanted to be healed of leprosy, he finally had to go to the Lord! When he went to the prophet, the prophet refused to personally see him. Instead, he sent a message saying "Dip seven times in the Jordan River, and thou shalt be clean!"

30. A DIRTY, FILTHY, MUDDY OLD RIVER! HOW COULD HE GET CLEAN THERE? He was horrified and at first refused, but finally one of his lowly servants persuaded him to humble his pride and go bathe in that dirty old river if it would heal him!--And he did, and it did!

31. WHY COULDN'T HE GO AND BATHE IN THE BEAUTIFUL, PURE, CRYSTAL RIVERS OF ABANA AND PHARPAR IN LOVELY DAMASCUS?--Because God's only solution and place for him to get rid of his leprosy as well as his pride was God's river--the dirty, muddy old Jordan! He had to do it in God's way.

32. SO WE ARE GOD'S TOILETS FOR THEIR POLLUTED YOUTH OF TODAY, and the only way they are going to solve this over-pollution of their youth, their crime, their vice and their drugs, and so on, is to flush them down our toilets, God's toilets, in our Colonies, with the water of the Word!

33. BUT WHEN THEY DO THAT, THEY HAVE TO FLUSH THEM DOWN FOREVER, AND THEY WILL NEVER AGAIN BE THE SAME! They may not even recognise them because they'll be so reconstituted! They will only return as rain upon the earth! That which was once piss in our toilets, next time comes down as rain from the storm clouds of the Lord, and they don't even recognise them anymore!

34. BUT THE WORLD IS CHERISHING ITS POLLUTION, ITS DUNG, ITS PISS THIS OFFSCOURING OF THE EARTH! In a way, they don't want it, they abhor it but they don't want to flush it down our toilets! They don't really want to kiss it goodbye. Because the next they see it, it's not the same anymore, and they don't recognise it! It's coming down as rain upon the earth, and they can't stop our rain!

35. THE TOILET IS THE ONE ROOM IN THE HOUSE THAT PEOPLE ARE EVEN ASHAMED TO ASK WHERE IT IS! It's the most humiliating question a guest has to ask: "Excuse me, but where is your toilet?"--"Please, could you tell me where the restroom is?" But the fact is that the world needs a whole lot more toilets if it is going to handle its pollution, the hippies, the youth problem!

36. THE TOILET IS THE ONE ROOM IN THE HOUSE YOU CANNOT DO WITHOUT!--Yet it's the room they're ashamed of! The one vessel in the house you cannot do without is the toilet, required by law, because you have to get rid of your waste and reconstitute it, but they're ashamed of it!

37. NOW IF THAT RECYCLING DID NOT TAKE PLACE, THE WORLD WOULD SOON RUN OUT OF WATER, all the water people use for toilets, for baths and cooking and drinking and everything else! You know, if we don't recycle these youths, the youth are going to become such pollution that they are going to run out of good, clean, pure youths! There won't be any more!

38. IF THEY DON'T LET US RECYCLE THEIR YOUTHS, THEY'RE NOT GOING TO HAVE ANY NICE, CLEAN YOUTHS LEFT! They are all going to be filthy, filthy hippies, drugsters, dopers, red radicals and vicious criminals!

39. OR EVEN WORSE, THEY'LL BECOME FILTHY, MURDEROUS, SYSTEMITE, WARMONGERING MANIACS, WHICH IS MUCH WORSE! The hippies aren't killing thousands upon thousands in Viet Nam!--It's those murderous Systemite maniacs, those nice short-haired clean-cut Systemite soldier kids, and some of them are doing it with a relish!--They're the worst filth of all!--They're even dirtier than the hippies, because they are going over there where they don't belong and self-righteously murdering the poor and destroying that little nation like the religious Pharisees crucified Jesus!

40. WHO WERE THE FILTHIEST OF ALL IN JESUS' TIME? The poor filthy publicans and sinners who said "Lord, be merciful to me a sinner!"--"Please clean me up!"--Or the hypocritical Pharisaical religious Systemites who said "We don't need cleaning up!"--And crucified Him for exposing their well-covered filth!--They were the filthiest of all! He that is filthy let him be filthy still!

41. SO THE WORLD'S WORST PROBLEM TODAY, IN SPITE OF WHAT THEY THINK, IS NOT THE HIPPIE YOUTH, OR THE SO-CALLED CRIMINAL YOUTH, BUT IT IS THE NICE SHORT-HAIRED CLEAN-CUT MURDEROUS MANIACS THAT ARE SLAUGHTERING THE POOR, the weak and the defenseless!--The ones who look like beautiful vessels on the shelf are even worse than the useless, worthless and good for nothing:--They are downright destructive and dangerous!

42. THEY ARE ONES THAT THEIR PARENTS REALLY DON'T WANT TO SEND DOWN OUR TOILETS! They don't need our toilets: "You can have all those criminals and perverts and drug-addicts and hippies, but don't you dare take my little angelic darling!--He doesn't need your old toilet!" But in God's eyes he's just as filthy, if not more so than the others! In fact, he really is more filthy, because he doesn't even know he's filthy!

43. SO I'M A TOILET: "GIVE ME YOUR TIRED, YOUR WEAK, YOUR WORN, YOUR HUDDLED MASSES, LABOURERS LONGING TO BREATHE FRESH AIR!"--And all that shit--Even the worst and dirtiest have to be relieved and the lowest unload! Even the nicest, cleanest, prettiest people in the house have to use the toilet! Even Jesus had to use the toilet!

44. BUT THEIR NICE CLEAN-CUT YOUNG SYSTEMITE SOLDIERS AND THOSE WHO MAKE THEM ARE THE WORST SHIT OF ALL! What young men does the System glorify and glamorise the most? Is it the athletes?--No, they're about second. Is it the scholars?--No they're probably about third. But the ones it builds memorials for and commemorates on special days and glamorises as the greatest heroes of all time are its most murderous war-mongering soldiers!

45. SAD TO SAY, THE MURDEROUS WAR-MONGERING MANIACS OF THE SYSTEM WITH THEIR ORGANISED MASS MURDER, WAR, AND ITS PERPETRATORS--THEY ARE THE WORST SHIT OF ALL! In a war they are worse than shit and piss and pollution! They are more like deadly poison! They are like contaminated deadly typhus water that's killing people!

46. DO YOU KNOW WHAT DISEASE THE WORLD IS MOST SCARED OF TODAY AND THEY GET FREAKED OUT ABOUT AND COMPEL YOU TO GET INOCULATED FOR?--It's the dreaded cholera! Cholera is poisonous, infectious waste that can kill you within a few hours!--And it can be transmitted by flies, fish, food, hand or most anything.--And, except for the Lord's mercy and miraculous healing, it only takes a few hours to get started, and you're gone! It starts with a little tummy-ache, then bowel-cramps and the runs and gas pains, until you virtually swell up and explode with the gas pains and you're dead!

47. CHOLERA IS LIKE AN INSANE RAGE, which is where it gets its name!--A war against life! So, therefore, the worst and most dangerous and poisonous wastes of all are these nice, clean-cut, highly organised, highly educated and religious soldiers with their insane, raging war pollution! Systemites who destroy the earth and kill people! In some ways they're worst of all! The System thinks they are fine, but they do the worst deeds of all!

48. SO THEY DON'T MIND US GETTING RID OF THEIR "DIRTY HIPPIE RUBBISH, BUT WHEN WE START SUCKING IN THEIR GOOD ATHLETE, SOLDIER AND STUDENT STUFF, THAT'S WHAT THEY DON'T LIKE!--And how they howl! Which proves what wolves these Systemites be!

49. I AM A TOILET, I GET MY INSPIRATION FROM ABOVE: SOMEBODY PULLS THE CHAIN AND DOWN COMES THE WATER TO FILL ME UP AND FLUSH ME OUT! Down comes the water from Heaven, and it carries everything with it. Praise the Lord! Pretty noisy, too!--Makes a lot of racket!--Quite a bit of commotion.

50. COME TO THINK OF IT, THE TOILET IS ALSO THE NOISIEST VESSEL IN THE WHOLE HOUSE!--And no one considers it a very pleasant noise. In fact, most of them don't like the noise it makes at all!--It disturbs them!

51. THE LORD'S WATER FLUSHES EVERYTHING DOWN MY DRAIN! I am nothing in the world but a channel, a receptacle, and if I didn't keep letting it out, I'd be one hell of a mess! Did you ever have to deal with a stopped-up toilet? If it gets too full of crap without enough flushing, all the dirt overflows into the whole house! Instead of getting rid of it, it spreads it around, and all that dirty water floods the bathroom and sometimes even the house!

52. I SERVE TWO PURPOSES, REALLY: I AM THE RECEPTACLE FOR THE CLEAN WATER AS WELL AS FOR ALL THE CRAP! The water washes me clean at the same time it begins the purification process of the waste matter. I catch it, then the Lord's water washes it down my drain and into the sewer and through His disposal plant's filtration system where the impurities are removed by His Holy Spirit. See, that is God's business, that is God's big operation: disposal, filtration and purification.

53. I AM NOTHING BUT A LITTLE TOILET THAT CATCHES IT AND SHOOTS IT TO GOD AT THIS DISPOSAL PLANT where the impurities are all removed through the filtration process. Then the water is either evaporated and/or carried into the rivers and seas until it does evaporate. Then God distils it once again and draws it up to Heaven.--This is the completion of the purification cycle.

54. THIS PROCESS OF EVAPORATION, VANISHING INTO THIN AIR, IS A DISTILLING, A PURIFICATION WHEREBY THE RECYCLING IS MADE COMPLETE. The evaporation is part of the distillation. Now first of all it goes through the filtration plant where the impurities are removed. But even that doesn't completely purify it. It takes away most of the waste materials, but it takes distillation by the process of evaporation to completely purify it which requires a fire or heat--in this case usually the sun.

55. THE SUN SHINING DOWN ON THE WATER CAUSES IT TO EVAPORATE BECAUSE OF THE HEAT. In other words, God puts the heat on and it turns the water, the liquid, into a gas otherwise knows as water vapour--And did you know that it is an invisible gas?--Water vapour is usually invisible! Sometimes our kids just vanish to escape the gravity of the System! It is only when it condenses into smog or fog or rain that it is visible again. But as long as it is a gas or water vapour, it is completely invisible. In effect it is nothing.

56. BY GOD'S FINAL STEP OF PURIFICATION, THE WATER BECOMES NOTHING--AN INVISIBLE GAS: IN A SENSE, PURE SPIRIT.--And it rises to a higher altitude, closer to the sun and into the heavenlies!--Kind of like Salvation, huh? It is a purification, a spiritualisation. Then once it has been purified and spiritualised by the power of God's sun, then up there in the highest strata of the atmosphere it is allowed to cool enough that it condenses back into a liquid, or actually tiny little droplets of liquid, millions of which together are called a cloud.

57. THE CLOUD THEN IS REGULATED BY TEMPERATURE, WHICH IS REGULATED BY THE SUN and heavenly conditions, all of which are regulated by the Lord and the need of the earth below. So when God thinks Earth needs a shower, He just works up a storm and conditions a cloud of moisture to fall in the form of rain. When it rains it's usually pretty stormy and noisy and sometimes frightening and even destructive, depending on the need! When it comes down it's virtually pure distilled rain water, except for the tiny little particles of dirt and soot and other air pollutants from which it washes the air clean as it falls.

58. WHEN IT RAINS THE FIRST THING IT DOES IS WASH THE AIR OF IMPURITIES AND POLLUTANTS as it comes down. In other words, you might say it clarifies the atmosphere, so people can see and perceive and understand better and know what is going on.

59. THEN IT FALLS TO THE GROUND AND WASHES AND WATERS THE SHRUBBERY AND TREES AND THE GROUND, washes the Earth and waters it, and helps to bring life to the Earth. It causes things to grow. Without that rain or those showers--that purified, reconditioned, reconstituted water--without that recycled waste water that God has purified--there would be no rain, no fresh clean water, no life. The ground would become parched and dried and cracked and turn into dust and sand and lifeless desert!

60. SO WITHOUT THE WARMING OF GOD'S SUN, THE WARMING LOVE OF HIS SUN, THERE COULD BE NO COMPLETE RECYCLING, because that is next to the final step before it becomes rain. It has to become nothing--like a spirit vapour. Only later is it allowed to reappear in the form of water, but this time not as a big heavy body of water full of pollution like the System, but as a light fleecy cloud that floats along on the air!--Tons and tons of water floating on air over your head!

61. ONLY AT GOD'S COMMAND OR IN OBEDIENCE TO HIS LAWS OF NATURE IS THE CLOUD EVEN ALLOWED TO DESCEND IN THE FORM OF RAIN TO REPLENISH THE EARTH! If it doesn't obey the laws of God it becomes "clouds without rain, blown about by every wind of doctrine"--like the churches!--Just so much hot air! No refreshing, no showers of blessing. (Read Jude.)

62. SO YOU CAN BE WATER, YOU CAN EVEN BE A CHRISTIAN, BUT IF YOU ARE NOT AN OBEDIENT CHRISTIAN, YOU ARE JUST LIKE THOSE CLOUDS WITHOUT RAIN or refreshing, and no good to the earth below, blown about by every wind of doctrine!

63. I REMEMBER THAT IN THAT SEMI-DESERT COUNTRY WE LIVED IN IN TEXAS, when the clouds would come over and we needed rain so badly, Aaron used to run out and pray, "Lord, Lord make it rain! Bring it down, Lord! Make that cloud rain, Lord!" But apparently sometimes we didn't deserve the rain, or the cloud was no good for rain. It just floated along on its merry way and didn't do a bit of good, except maybe to give a little temporary shade like the churches!

64. THE POOR EARTH REMAINED SPARSE AND DRY AND CRACKED AND CRUSTY, AND GRASS WITHERED AWAY AND DIED AND THE CATTLE WENT HUNGRY! The cattle and the sheep suffered the most, because the goats would eat almost anything--weeds, cactus, leaves off the trees--goats will eat almost anything! But good cattle and sheep will only eat good green grass.

65. IT WAS EASIER FOR THE GOATS TO SURVIVE WITHOUT RAIN THAN IT WAS FOR THE SHEEP.--Like the wicked goats of this world who seem to be able to survive better than the Lord's sheep without any spiritual blessing or refreshing! The wicked goats will live off and eat anything! But God's Children have to have His rain to grow good green grass for their good wholesome food.

66. SO WHEN THE LORD SEES THAT HIS EARTH NEEDS IT, FOR THE SAKE OF HIS LAND AND HIS PEOPLE, HIS SHEEP--HE SENDS REFRESHING!--HE SENDS THE RAIN, AND NOTHING CAN STOP IT!

67. HAVE YOU NOTICED THAT TO DO ANY GOOD, RAIN HAS TO FALL, from its lofty heavenly position in the clouds from Heaven to Earth? It has to fall to the ground. It has to descend to the level of the earth and the sheep and the grass, and even become mud for our sakes!

68. WHEN RAIN FALLS INTO THE DUST OF THE EARTH, ITS NAME IS MUD! When rain joins itself with the lowly dust, some people curse it as mud!--But only such moist mud will grow grass! In fact, it will grow richer and greener and better in damp, soft, yielding, receptive and responsive earth (or hearts!) than anywhere else!--Rather than on hard, stoney, unyielding, unreceptive ground!

69. IT JUST RUNS OFF THE HARD KIND OF GROUND LIKE WATER OFF A DUCK'S BACK, AND IT RUNS OFF THE HIGH AND LOFTY PLACES! That is why you can't grow much on top of a hill, for life-giving water seeks the lowly places.--In fact, it seeks the lowest places, always seeking the lowest level!

70. IT ALSO TRIES TO AVOID OBSTRUCTIONS. It goes around the rocks and the roots and the banks and the posts and the big trees, and follows the path of least resistance. It goes where there is the most receptivity, the most openness, and down, to the very bottom!

71. THAT'S WHERE YOU WILL FIND THE RICHEST SOIL, THAT BOTTOM LAND! That's where you will find the most fertile land! It's bottom land! Though most rain falls on higher ground, it comes down from the heights and the watersheds, and has to descend from those lofty heights of its mountains and hills into the valleys in order to grow crops, feed sheep and make a harvest.

72. THE DROPS THAT FALL ON THE MOUNTAIN TOPS MAY FEEL THEY'D RATHER STAY THERE, and they love it there up near to heaven from whence they came, in communication with the Lord, close to God. But they are never going to do any good until they descend to the valleys! But being the Lord's yielded droplets, God's rain, those little drops never even stop to question, they never even hesitate.

73. BUT THE MINUTE THEY LAND ON THE TOP OF THE MOUNTAINS, THEY START RUNNING FOR THE VALLEYS as fast as they can where they can do some good, and grow His grass, and feed his sheep, and bring His harvest, and be drunk by men and animals, and be used to wash their clothes and their dishes and their bodies and flush their toilets!--And we are back to where we started!

74. SOMETIMES SO MUCH WATER FLOWS FROM THE HEIGHTS THAT IT RUSHES SO FAST INTO THE VALLEYS IT BECOMES A RAGING TORRENT, A FLOOD that sweeps everything in its path, a judgment of God rather than a blessing!--To some we are a curse. We are a flood of damnation!--"Ministers unto condemnation!"--And we destroy, uproot, and tear down the creations of the systems of man, particularly if they have built their houses upon the sand!

75. BUT IF THEIR HOUSE IS BUILT UPON THE ROCK, IF THEIR RELIGION AND THEIR SYSTEM HAS A GOOD FOUNDATION, CHRIST JESUS, WE WON'T DO IT ANY HARM, no matter how our floods beat upon it! God's winds of judgment blow and floods flow, but those houses that are built on the Rock, Christ Jesus, and doers of the Word, not hearers only, they will stand our flood, our doctrine, our message, our rain, and we will even water them and feed them and wash them and flush them clean again!--Hallelujah?

76. SO I AM JUST A TOILET FOR GOD'S LATTER RAIN! I am just a toilet, the humblest, lowest, most despised and dishonoured of all vessels in a great house, but the most necessary! Just to catch the waste products of society, the dregs, the offal stuff nobody wants--those "damned hippies", "those kids" nobody wants around--society's waste products--what they consider the pollutants of society!

77. WE ARE JUST TOILETS TO CATCH THEM, FLUSH THEM, CHANNEL THEM, FILTER THEM, CLEANSE THEM, distil them, and cause them to be so recycled that they actually vanish into thin air, they evaporate! "Where have all the children gone?" they ask us! You can just tell them: "they have evaporated! God has distilled them into heavenly places!"

78. WE ARE ALSO LIKE A CLOUD HANGING HEAVY OVER THEIR HEADS! To some we are a cloud of refreshing and blessing; to others, a storm of destructions and cursing! We are ministering unto some salvation, to others damnation! Their children returning again recycled into fresh, clear, clean blessed rain, our rain from their waste through our toilet, become to their former households sometimes like storms and floods, but mostly rains of refreshing!

79. IN MY VISION, THE VASE WAS THROWN OFF THE SHELF ALMOST IN ANGER AND VIOLENTLY BY THE LORD, like He didn't like it standing up there so beautiful and so useless like the churches! He preferred to break it and tromple it in the mud, and out of that mud to make the potty, the toilet, the lowliest vessel in the house, but the most useful and the most essential!

80. ARE YOU A GORGEOUS, USELESS, MERELY ORNAMENTAL VASE, OR ARE YOU AN UGLY, USEFUL, NECESSARY TOILET? Are you willing to catch the waste products of society and recycle them by the power of God's Son into good, clean refreshing, purifying rain? If not, there is one thing sure: You will never be able to stop our rain--God's rain!

81. YOU WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO PLUG UP OUR TOILETS--GOD'S TOILETS! Because God's the one who is doing the flushing with His rain through our toilets! Every one of our Colonies is a toilet room for your waste products of your evil society.

82. COME AND DEPOSIT YOUR WASTE WITHIN US, SO WE CAN RECYCLE IT INTO GOD'S RAIN! Just remember, once He's pulled the chain, you can never have it back again, and it will never be the same! You may not even recognise your waste after God has recycled it and it falls on you like storms and rain!

83. YOU MIGHT EVEN WISH YOU HAD KEPT IT TO STINK UP YOUR HOUSE, THAN TO HAVE IT SO COMPLETELY CHANGED into a rain you can't even recognise and which you might not even want or appreciate and which may try to purge you like a flood if you don't receive it as God's rain!

84. YOUR OWN WASTE FROM OUR TOILETS IS TRANSFORMED INTO GOD'S RAIN and refreshes and renews the Earth and causes life to continue and grow, pure, unadulterated and beautiful!--Wouldn't you just love to be a toilet too, a loo like me?

85. THIS WHOLE OPERATION IS ALSO PERFORMED WITHIN THE HUMAN BODY to a certain extent. In a way the body is like the whole world, the universe, and the liquids within your body are constantly being purified and recycled and being put through the purification plant of your kidneys and your liver and even aerated by your lungs! That's one of the processes of the purification plants: They spray the water up into the air so the air and sun will help to purify it!

86. I HAVE LIVED FOR TWENTY YEARS IN CAMPERS AND TRAILERS AND OUR GREATEST PROBLEM WAS SEWAGE DISPOSAL!--Water you could get almost anywhere, but our greatest problem was sewage disposal, disposing of the waste water. It was pretty easy to find water faucets and places to get water almost everywhere. But it was very difficult to find waste disposal stations or what we call dumping stations.--They were rare and hard to find. Lots of people were willing to give you water, but not many people were willing to take your sewage!

87. BUT OUR COLONIES ARE WILLING TO BE YOUR DUMPING STATIONS! YOU CAN DUMP YOUR WASTE IN US, AND WE WILL BE GLAD TO HAVE IT! We use it, because God can recycle it into His rain! Go ahead and dump on us and see if we care!--We really do! In fact, we will take good care of it, for we do care, God cares even about your waste. Or maybe you'd like to become a toilet for Jesus and handle others' waste products!--Would you? Next time try the rain, and leave the dumping to us!

88. A TOILET IS LIKE A STOOL: IT CAN BECOME A THRONE! ALL OF US TOILETS CAN BE THRONES OF GOD! GOD SITS ON US, TOO! And you know what?--When God sits on us we become His throne! He makes of a lowly stool a throne! Other people just corrupt and defile us, but God glorifies us! It is not what goes in that defiles it, but what comes out! You know what?--Out of the tank of every toilet comes God's fresh clean water to wash away man's defilement!

89. ARE YOU WILLING TO BE A TOILET FOR JESUS?--LIKE ME!--I AM A TOILET!--ARE YOU?
