masqueraders have infiltrated the very foundations

1) Among the snares laid by the wicked has been their embracing of organized religion.  I do not say that a wealth of untold good is not brought forth through organization, even in the field of religion.  But it is particularly insidious when one considers that these masqueraders51, or wolves in sheep’s clothing, have18 infiltrated55 the15 very25 foundations48 of12 religious52 endeavors40 (=316=4 x masqueraders’ deceit79) throughout the planet where32 they22 pretend37 to8 be7 purveyors51 of12 good23 (=192=4 x corrupted48) but are in reality continually functioning on the side of discord and confusion.  Their purpose is clear to us but not always so to mankind who are held in the icy grip of the toiler.

-Saint Germain, Pearl 8:35 ………………........................... 3) We hope not, for we have contact with many an individual who is enlightened as to the trends of the times.  Many are aware of the fact that the masqueraders lurk behind their snobbish ploys, manipulating the moods of carnal mind by the power of name and fame and substituting the decisions of their ridiculous councils for the wisdom of the ages that is the forte of the God-realized man. -Saint Germain, Pearl 12:18 ………..…….......................... 4) The will of God left to its natural course would have long ago automated the perfection of man; but man demanded and was accorded freewill, including the right to choose between his own versions of good and evil, for the Lord God envisioned only good and produced it and it alone.  Yet men dwell in the vale of dualities.  This makes it necessary that they be given cosmic tests.  All embodied men are tested.  Therefore I call to mind the words of Jesus “If it were possible, they [the false Christs] shall deceive the very elect.”   Although they have been warned that the powers of darkness masquerade as angels of light, the children of God are often fooled by masqueraders.  Wise then is the student who will kiss the opportunity to learn discrimination and who will rejoice when the steadfast hand of progress becomes a hand of chastening, for the fruit of the Spirit is ever and anon the reward of man’s conscious, willing acceptance of the immutable law of his own being. Until students understand, and clearly, that the pathway through the vale of shadows is full of hidden dangers they may well fall prey to confusions of carnal mind.  When Philip said to Jesus “Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us,” the beloved master replied “Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me...?  he that hath seen me hath seen the Father.... Believest thou not that I am in the Father and the Father in me?  the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself:  but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.”   Those who have communed with their own Holy Christ Selves and with the beloved God Presence have seen both Father and Son; these will not be confused by the carnal mind if they remain steadfast in the vision of their oneness. Our instruction is a bond of light; it shatters darkness, it confutes error, it reveals the inner light of truth; yet even our followers are sometimes deluded by reason of the very kindness of their hearts.  The15 spoiler40 lies18 in14 wait17.  He13 comes19 wearing41 robes23 of12 righteousness62.  He13 preys29 upon21 the15 children46 of12 God17 (=427=7 x dissatisfactions61), for they alone in their innocence of heart possess the virtue that the spoiler has not known and that he will not espouse in the secret heart of his being.
