The time will come when the privilege of obtaining the Divine Love will be withdrawn from mankind

Image
I am here, Jesus. You are in a better condition tonight and I will continue my messages. “ God is a God of love , and no man can come to Him, unless he receives the Love of the Father in his soul.” As men are by nature sinful and inclined to error and the violation of God’s laws, they can be redeemed from that sin only by obtaining this Love; and that can be obtained only through prayer and faith in the willingness of God to bestow this Love upon whomsoever may ask for it. I do not mean that there must be formal prayers or compliance with any church creeds or dogmas; but the prayer that is efficacious is that which emanates from the soul and earnest aspirations of a man. So let men know, that unless they have the real soul longings for this Love, it will not be given to them - no mere intellectual desires will suffice. The intellect is not that faculty in man that unites him to God. Only the soul is made in the likeness of the Father, and unless this likeness is perfected by a filling ...

Jesus says “I am the Way, the Truth and the Life”. Jesus says he is not God or to be worshiped as God...

Image
I am here, Jesus. You are now in condition, and I will give you a short message. When I was on earth I was not worshiped as God, but was considered merely as the son of God in the sense that in me were imposed the Truths of my Father and many of His wonderful and mysterious powers. I did not proclaim myself to be God, neither did I permit any of my disciples to believe that I was God, but only that I was His beloved son sent to proclaim to mankind His truths, and show them the way to the Love of the Father. I was not different from other men, except that I possessed to a degree this Love of God, which made me free from sin, and prevented the evils that formed a part of the nature of men from becoming a part of my nature. No man who believes that I am God has a knowledge of the truth, or is obeying the commandments of God by worshiping me. Such worshipers are blaspheming and are doing the cause of God and my teachings great injury. Many a man would have become a true believe...

Jesus says his blood does not save men. Only the Divine Love or New Birth that he taught saves and redeems.

Image
I am here, Jesus. I heard the discussion between you and the other man about my blood saving from sin, and I felt that you were not benefitted by what was said, because his faith is based on ignorance of the true plan of salvation and my mission on earth. But he is so firmly fixed in his belief that no argument that you might make would convince him that anything but my death and atonement could save from sin. So I do not think it would do any good to attempt to argue with any of these people in reference to the matter of my blood being the one thing that saves from sin and error. These people have this faith so firmly fixed that they see only my blood as a means of salvation. They have received the Divine Love to a considerable degree and the Holy Spirit is with them in their worship and is in their hearts, but it does not come to them by reason of their belief in my atonement, but because they pray to the Father for its coming and making them a new being so far as their s...

Hell And The Duration Of Punishment.

Image
  I am here, St. Paul. I merely want to say that I was present at the church tonight and listened to the preacher (Dr. Ratcliff) tell his congregation what he didn’t know about hell, because what he said, in many particulars was untrue and it was pleasing to hear him tell his people that there was no physical suffering, although he didn’t explain to them why there could be no such suffering, and I mean that no spirit, when he goes into hell carries with him his physical body, or any other body, that has such substance as would be affected by fire and brimstone and the other unreasonable things that the churches have for so many years taught and terrified their members with - and as a consequence caused them to believe that the Father is such a cruel and wrathful Father, demanding that His cravings for satisfaction be supplied by the sizzling in fire of the bodies of His children. No, this damnable doctrine is not true and I am glad to see that the ch...

Probation Does Exist Among Spirits In The Hell.

Image
I am here, Jesus. You were right in your surmise that I was with you tonight, and as you imagined, I was standing close to you at the time the preacher (Dr. Gordon) was delivering his discourse, and you felt the influence of my love and sympathy, and also received the thoughts that I was superimposing on your brain. The preacher’s sermon was an advance upon the beliefs of the orthodox in many particulars, but in the most important particular and in the one that will affect mortals most vitally in their progress in the spirit life, he was wrong, very wrong. I refer to his declaration that he saw or knew of no statement in the Bible that would justify him in   asserting that there would be an opportunity for the spirits of mortals to receive pardon or to progress from the condition of hell to that of light and heaven in the spirit world, when they had not started on that journey in the mortal life. This, as I have told you, is a damnable doctrine, and one that has...

The Hells, Judgement & Forgiveness, and the Resurrection

Image
It is more correct to say there is no hell in any of God’s Universes, than to suggest there is a hell. This is because, if you take the word hell to mean a place of  inflicted  suffering, of  eternal  duration, there is no such place. But, if you take it to understand that some spirits find themselves in places and states of mind that are unpleasant, then there are such places and conditions. But this condition is not inflicted because of any false beliefs, or following any “wrong” religion. It is solely the application of the Laws of God, the effect that results from causes. The causes, are broadly sin, or being out of harmony with God’s Laws. The hells are both a place and an experience. It seems that each soul may in some way create it’s own hell. Certainly we are told that the Law of Compensation causes souls to undergo this purification, following which they progress until eventually they may reach the highest heavens. Hell, then, is not for ...

Everything You Seek Is Already Within You!

Did you know that he said, don't pray to him? He specifically says, don't ask me for anything. You don't know yourself? John chapter 16, verse 20, Jesus Christ quote, and in that day you shall ask me nothing. Do you see it? Don't ask me, he said. And what did he say in the scripture just in front of that? Who made me judge and divide over you? Why? Because he wants you to be an individual. He doesn't want you sucking up to saints and gods and evangelists and priests and popes. He wants you to stand on your two feet and realize that you're the light of the world. And what is in you is everything that you need to deliver to you and your family everything that God has. But they wouldn't let you be there because they needed a hero.  Book Of Wisdom
