Messages from Jesus and Celestials on Divine Love 1916 July - August
July 2nd 1916
I am here, John.
I come tonight to tell you of a Truth, which is important for you to know, as well as for the World of Humankind. I will not write a very long message. What I may say will be the Truth. Every human should understand it, and make it their own.
I will not write upon any subject that you have been instructed upon before. I will deal with a subject entirely new. My subject is: "Why should humans learn that they are not to be left to themselves, in their conceptions of what Life means, and what its importance is, in the economy of Human's Creation and Destiny."
I know that this may seem to you to be a strange subject to write on. It is one that should be of interest to all humans who know that the Earth Life is very short. Then Eternity takes them into its embrace. Never again permits them to become creatures of time.
Human lives, dies, and never lives again, according to the materialist. They are as the brute animal without any future. But the Spiritualist, and by that I mean those who believe that there is something more to human than the mere material, believes they live, and never ceases to live. Although, the physical body dies, never to be resurrected again as such body.
Now, as we take either the one, or the other, of these views, the Meaning of Human's Earth Life, assumes a very different aspect, and calls for very different thoughts and actions on their part in living their Life. Of course, if what is called death is the end of things, that human should do, or they should think they should do, as the old saying; "Eat, drink and be merry for tomorrow you shall die.", and with that death comes oblivion and forgetfulness never to be Awakened again into consciousness. Their mission in the universe is fulfilled. They can no more experience the hopes, ambitions, joys, or sorrows, which were theirs as a Living human.
On the other hand, if human never ceases to live, then their thoughts, and conduct, should be turned towards the accomplishment of that, which will provide for them the best possible Future Life.
Those, of both opinions, know that when death comes, the physical body can no longer be used. Those who believe in the Continuous Existence know that as the physical body perishes, human must have some other form, or body, in which may be lodged the Consciousness of this Continued Existence. That body must be as real as the one, which they relinquish. Such being the fact, the human who knows that death does not end all, will naturally, and necessarily, seek to learn what that body of Continued Existence is like, and what is necessary to enable them to obtain that body. Thereby, enjoy the Living in Eternity. Thus seeking, they will not be satisfied to learn that that body is the mere spirit body, which has been theirs during all the years of their Earth Life, but will desire to further learn what the relationship is, between that spirit body, and the manner of living their Earth Life.
I know that of them self, human cannot, to any degree, discover this relationship. That they must depend upon the teachings, and experiences, of those who have experienced the separation of the spirit body from the physical body, in order to at all comprehend this relationship.
As one having had this experience, I wish to say that the spirit body, is of itself, a Creation, like as is the physical body, and has its existence only for the purpose of preserving human's individuality , and of containing and sheltering their soul, both while on Earth, and after they become a spirit.
Then, their living means; that they are placed on the Earth merely to acquire an individuality (of the soul). To learn that within them, is the soul, which is their Real Self, which they must cherish, educate, and feed, with the Higher Thoughts, and the Goodness of their Original Creation, and not neglect the opportunities that come to them for this development.
I know that this seems incoherent to you, with no special object in view. You are mistaken in thus thinking, for the object will soon be seen. As you are not just in condition for further writing tonight, I will postpone my writing until later.
So trusting that you will not feel inclined to reject the message, I will say goodnight.
Your brother in Christ, John.

I am here, Mary.
I want very much to write, as I have been waiting for some time to send my dear Leslie a communication. I have been so disappointed because it seemed to me that conditions would never present themselves, that would enable me to tell of my Love and desires. Now that I am writing again. I hope that you will not think me selfish if I should write a little longer than seems to be reasonable.
Well, I was present the other night when you came to us in your spirit form. What Helen told you is all True. She did not tell you the whole Truth, for if she had, she would have told you that I greeted you also, and that you said I was very beautiful, and that Leslie had no conception of what a lovely sweetheart he had. That if he could only see me, and be with me, he would never want to return to Earth again. I told you to tell him that I was his, and no one else's. that I was waiting for him to come. That I was going to try to bring him to these Spheres of Love, just as Helen did you. I am going to do it, too.
Of course, I have never had any experience of this kind. Helen says that she will show me the way, and that very soon. Now I desire to tell him that he must not be surprised, if some night before very long, he finds himself with me, and enjoying my Love and happiness.
Helen says that if he does come, she will meet him also, and tell him some things that will cause him to think that I do not Love him so much. I do not care if she does so that I have him with me.
He must believe in what I here write, for it is True. We will have all the enjoyment that I can possibly promise. I know that then, I will be so real to him that he will never thereafter have to wonder what kind of looking girl his soulmate is. He may not recollect, any more than you do, his experience. Yet there will remain with him, in his memory, some conception of what his Mary looks like, so that she will be real to him, as your Helen is to you.
Oh, what a glorious thought that I could have him with me, in his actual spirit presence, and talk to him, and have him talk to me! Would not that be heaven for us both! I must not get into such rhapsody, for if I do, I may forget some other things that I desire to say.
Tell him that I am with him so very much. That when he thinks I am giving him the signal, I am really doing so. That when he does not receive the signal, I am frequently with him. Tell him too, that as I progress in my Soul Development, and get more of the Divine Love in my soul, the more I Love him. Try to make him realize it. That now, as I am in the Celestial Heavens, I know that he will not be left in the Lower Spheres, for I could not be Perfectly Happy without him. That God is too good to deprive me of his companionship.
What a wonderful thing is Love, and I mean not only the Divine Love of the Father, but the lesser Love of the soulmate when it knows that it's soulmate on Earth returns that Love. Of course, the mortal soulmate can never Love, as does the soulmate in the Higher Spheres. I am so very happy tonight that I could write for a long time. Yet, I must not, though I will, add a postscript.
I am with his mother very much. Love her very dearly, because she Loves her son so much. We often talk about the time when he will come to us, and be one of the family of Redeemed Spirits. When his home and my home shall be the same. His mother is a very beautiful spirit, and knows only Love. While she Loves all her children on Earth, yet she feels closer to him, because he gives her the opportunity to come to him. He responds to her thoughts of love and happiness.
His father is also much interested, and is with him very much, trying to help him and turn his thoughts to the Higher Things of Life on Earth, as well as here. Is now here telling me that I must let him know, that he, the father, is so very happy that his son's longings and aspirations are so often given to those thoughts that will enable him to progress to the delights that come only with the Divine Love of the Father.
Well, I must stop now, or you will think that I am very selfish. I do not want you to think that, for you know I Love you as a sister, and want you to believe that I am a good little spirit, even if I do Love more than some spirits who don't know so much about Love.
So I will say goodnight. Tell my dear one to prepare to have his spirit carried away some night, to fields of bliss and beauty that very few mortals visit.
So goodbye. Your own true friend and sister, Mary. (Kennedy)
July 3rd, 1916
I am here, your own true and loving Helen.
You have received quite a letter from Mary tonight. She was so glad that she could write you. She wanted to let the Doctor know that she intends to carry his spirit with her, and enjoy his presence, as I did yours. I will assist her. She will succeed. The Doctor will be carried to the Sphere, to which his Soul Development will enable him to enter, which I think will be the Third Sphere. He has much development, and is in possession of much of the Divine Love.
Well, I see that you do not feel like writing much tonight. I will not try to write longer, and only say that I Love you with all my heart and soul. So Love me, and give me my kiss.
Goodnight, your own True Loving Helen.
July 9th, 1916
I am here, Jesus.
I come today to tell you that I am pleased with you, in your efforts to find the Truth of what we have taught, as to God, and of the relation of human to Him.
I have been with you in your reading of several days past. I have observed the effect upon you of the contrast between the beliefs and teachings of humans, as you have read them, and the Teachings of Truth that we have revealed to you in our messages.
While these writings (Christian Science) that you have been reading, have in them some Things of Truth, yet there are many things that are wholly untrue. The mere results of speculation.
Today, if you feel in condition, I will instruct you as to some of the errors and deficiencies of Christian Science. The want of the True comprehension of its founder, of the Realities of Being.
She writes, and teaches, that there is nothing real in sin, error, and disease. That their apparent existence is wholly due to the mortal mind, and that when this mind denies the existence of these things, they will no longer exist. Well, in this assertion, there is a large grain of Truth. In order to understand, and apply, this Truth, more than a mere denial of their existence must be taught, and believed by human.
It is True that God never created anything of evil, or that which is not in Harmony with His Nature and Essence, which are only Good. That to ascribe the existence of these evils and discords to God is erroneous and blasphemous. The fact remains that these things exist. The mere denial of their existence does not remedy the harmful results that flow from such existence.
Human suffers from evil, error, and disease, has always so suffered, since the fall from their State of Perfection, always will suffer, in consequence of there being in their consciousness, these Things of Reality. The mere calling them the result of "mortal mind", will not explain their existence, or furnish a remedy by which they may be gotten rid of.
First arises the necessity of understanding how, and by what means, these things came into existence. Then it will become easier for the understanding of the means, and the way, by which they may be eliminated from the Life, and apparent nature of humankind.
As I have already told you, these things, foreign to God's Creation, were created by human alone, in the excessive and unlawful exercise of their will power, in following out the suggestions and desires of their animal appetites, which unduly asserted themselves, when human lost a part of their Spirituality by their disobedience.
Their creation was the result of something more, than what the founder of that Science calls, "the mortal mind". The mind is only a part of human's being. While the faculties of the mind must be used in the operation of all the powers and qualities of human, yet the mind is not the originator of all their desires, appetites, and emotions. The Emotional Nature, and Affections, are distinct from the mere mind, or the intellectual faculties. As regards sin and error, are generally the creators of the same, although the mind may, and does, foster and increase these things, so created.
Then human must understand that these excrescences to their Perfect Creation are real and existing. Result in their own damnation and alienation from the Good, and are antagonistic to their Original and Natural Condition of Perfection. That they cannot be swept out of existence by the mere assertion; "that they are not real".
Again, human must understand that they are the creatures, primarily of the inordinate exercise of the animal appetites and desires, and not of the exercise of the mind. To be eradicated by the same process, in reverse order, as was used in their creation.
Of course, it must not be lost sight of, that in using this process; the faculties of the mind must be brought into operation, just as they were in the creation of these existences. The great fact to be remembered in this process is; that these things are Real, and not things of the mere imagination, which is the equivalent of the founder's "mortal mind".
Now, when human grasps the meaning, as thus explained, of what these things really are, and how they came into being, then, they will the more readily comprehend the way, or the means, by which they are to be destroyed, never again permitted to become a part of their being. While they do not, by Nature, belong to their being, yet by reason of their being the creator of them, they are, so far as their consciousness is concerned, together, with all the results flowing there from, a part of their being; that part, which keeps them in discord with the Laws controlling their own existence. The Purity of their True Being (soul) is always besmirched by the impurities of their own artificial being (thoughts and beliefs). Always will be, until they eliminate these impurities, which as to them, and to their fellow human, are real, persistent existences.
The will (seated in the soul), however, is the Great Force, that must be used in the destruction of these excrescences. As this will power in human is free and untrammeled, and in its operations, follows the suggestions and desires of the appetites - BOTH animal (mind) and Spiritual (soul) of human. It therefore becomes apparent that these appetites and desires must first be controlled and directed, in that direction that will cause the will to be exercised in such a manner, as to lead the thoughts and deeds towards the realization of the desires and appetites in Harmony with God's Laws.
As sin and evil are not the creatures of the Spiritual (soul) desires, but wholly of the animal (mind), then to eradicate from human's being these things of evil and sin, the efforts of human must be directed towards the supplanting of the unlawful and inharmonious animal desires and appetites, by Appetites and Desires arising from the same source (soul, spiritual) that are in Harmony with the Laws Creating this very source.
Humans were Created by God with animal appetites, just as they were Created with Spiritual Aspirations. The one, is just as Harmonious with the Laws of their Creation, as the other. The loss of the Spiritual Aspiration, or the perversion of the animal appetites, similarly, causes human to become out of Harmony with these Laws. So that; human, in order to become free from these foreign parts of their being, must strive, not by a denial of their Reality, but by the effort to supplant them, to recreate, as it were, in them self, the animal appetites that are consistent, and in Harmony, with those, which were theirs when they were made The Perfect Human. In other words, to destroy the beings of their own creation, and possess only those of the Creation of God.
Of course, in this effort, they will have to use their mind, mortal, or otherwise. In addition, they will also have to exercise the faculties of their Emotional and Affectional Nature, which are not of the mind, but the soul. Mere negation, or belief, will not be sufficient. Desires and cravings for these things, which engender sin, must be supplanted by desires and craving for those things, which are in Harmony with their Creation.
So, I repeat, the teachings that sin, error, and disease are not real, and are no part of human's being, as they now exist and lives, is erroneous, and when not understood, harmful, and not sufficient to bring about the regeneration of human.
In one sense, it is True that sin, error, and disease, are not real. That means, that so far as God's Creation of Human is concerned, they have no existence. He Created only that which was Good and in Harmony with His Perfect Laws. As human is a creator, as well as a Creature, and as these things are the creatures of human alone, then so far as the being of human is involved, they have a Reality, which will persist, until their creator, human, has destroyed them.
I am pleased that you gave me the opportunity to write today. I am also glad to find you in good condition.
Your friend and brother, Jesus.

I am here, Edwin Forrest.
I come tonight to tell you that I am much better than I was when last I wrote you. I have gotten out of much of the darkness in which I was.
This is all so wonderful to me, that I scarcely realize what it means. When I think of how ignorant I was on Earth, and what a Godless Life I led, I never cease thanking God for the Great Opportunities that I enjoy, and for the help of the Beautiful, Loving spirits, who came to me to show me The Way to Truth and this Divine Love of the Father.
Your wife has been my angel of hope in all my darkness. Her tenderness and Love, have caused me to Awaken from the miserable condition in which I found myself shortly after coming to the Spirit World. How fortunate I am, I cannot tell you, and never will I be able to tell anyone. For no spirit that has not experienced what I have, can possibly convey the meaning of the great change from darkness and ignorance, to some Light, and some of the Divine Love, that has come to me.
I now pray to the Father almost continually. As I do so, I realize that there comes into my soul that, which changes all its qualities, and makes me realize how dead I was. Oh, if I only had known of this Wonderful Divine Love on Earth, how different my Life would have been. How many heartaches would have been saved to others. Among them, I include yourself, for now I realize that I did you great wrong in our business affairs by my conduct and drunken escapades. I know that you have forgiven me, pray for me, and want me to be happy. Your wife, who knows what happened, tells me not to think of these things, but to think only of the Father's Divine Love, and the fact that it can be mine in ever increasing abundance. I wanted to write this to you. I now feel better. You may rest assured, that so far as I can in this Spirit World, help you, and retrieve what injury I did you, I will do to the utmost of my power.
Well, I have written considerable tonight, and must stop. So continue to pray for me, and I know that I shall be helped.
Goodnight, Edwin Forrest.
July 25th, 1916
I am here, Luke.
I merely come to corroborate what Luther has written, as I am one of those who have set the causes in operation. You may believe what is said. Your realization will not be long postponed.
I will not write more tonight.
I did not write the Gospel, or the Acts, as they are now contained in the Bible. I wrote a Gospel, also a book called the Acts. My writings were not preserved, and in the copying, and translating, of them, many things were eliminated, and many things added. Of course, I cannot tell you now what these things are. Before our messages are finished, you will know of many Truths, which will explain this matter. I am really the Luke who wrote the Gospel, and the Acts, which were the supposed originals of what the Bible now contains.
So with my Love and blessings I will say, goodnight.
Your brother in Christ, Luke.

I am here, Your own true and loving Helen.
Well, sweetheart, you have been much interested in the book (The Birth of Buddha) you were reading. There are some wonderful statements contained in it, which, as you must see, are fables; for never did the things related happen.
There are, in the Spirit World, a great number of spirits who believe in, and worship Buddha, who are satisfied in their beliefs, their manner of living, and the places in which they live. None of them are in the Celestial Heavens, but are in several Spheres of the Spirit World, according to the development of their Moral Natures, and their Natural Love.
I have never seen the founder of this sect. I am informed that he is in the Sixth Sphere, and is a very bright spirit, and pure, and still engaged in teaching his doctrines. Of course, he has changed in some of his doctrines, notably the Doctrine of Reincarnation. All the spirits, of his followers on Earth, remain in the Spirit World, and never become reincarnated.
Well, I do not know whether we can have him come and write, or not. We will make the effort sometime, in order that he may tell you himself of his present beliefs and condition of bliss.
Well, you will be able to do that. It may have some effect. You have so many other things to do at this time, that I do not think we will have him come very soon.
Your own True and Loving Helen.
August 5th, 1916
I am here, St. John.
I come tonight to say only a few words, these in reference to Love, the Divine Love of the Father, which He Re-Bestowed upon Humankind, at the coming of the Master.
This Divine Love, is the Greatest Thing in All the World. The only thing that can make human At-One with the Father, and change the soul of human, as it has existed since their Creation, into a Divine Substance, filled with the Divine Essence of the Father. There is nothing else in All the Universe of God that can cause human to become a New Creature, and an inhabitant of the Father's Celestial Kingdom. When humans possess this Divine Love, then they possess everything that will make them, not only the Perfect Human, but the Divine Angel. Then humans will understand the Moral Precepts of Brotherly Love, and also the Father's Oneness. They will not have to seek for other help, in order to bring into the Life of the Human Race, those qualities that will bring to it Peace and Goodwill. Then, will every human know that every other human is their brother, and be able to do unto each, as they would have the other to do unto them, this without effort or sacrifice on their part. For Love worketh its own fulfillment. All its beneficence floweth towards the fellow-human, as falls the dews from Heaven. Envy, hatred, strife, jealousy, and all the other evil qualities of human will disappear. Only Peace, Joy, and Happiness will remain.
It (the Divine Love) is so abundant, that it may be possessed by all humans by the mere seeking. The sincere longing for its inflowing. Human must understand that it is not theirs by matter of right. Nor is it ever forced upon them. Comes only in response to the sincere earnest prayer of a soul that is filled with longings for its coming.
This Divine Love comes, not with observation of mere Moral Rules, or with good deeds, and the exercise of the Natural Love of a human towards their fellows. Because no human can possibly merit it by any deeds, acts, or kindness of heart, that they may have. All these things are desirable. They work out their own rewards. Bring the Happiness and Peace that result from good thoughts and kind deeds. All these, do not bring unto the soul of human, this Great Divine Love. It is the Father Alone. Only when the soul is opened up to its reception, can it possibly find its home in that soul.
It is greater than Faith, or hope. Because, it is the Real (Spiritual) Substance of the Father (Great Soul). Faith, and hope, are the qualities, which a human may possess by their own efforts, which are given them that they may Realize the possibility of obtaining this Divine Love. They are merely means. It is the end and fullness of their exercise.
Humans must not believe that all Love is the Divine Love. It is very different, in its (Spiritual) Substance, and Qualities, from all other Loves.
All humans have, as a part of their possessions, the Natural Love. They need not pray for a Bestowal of that. Although, since it has become defiled by sin, it needs to be Purified, and freed from this blight. The Father is ever willing and ready to help humans obtain this Purification.
This Divine Love is not a part of human's Nature. Nor can they obtain, or possess it, except they seek for it. It comes from without. Is not developed from within. It is the result of individual acquirement, not the object of Universal Possession. It may be possessed by all! It can be possessed by only a few. Each human must determine for them self whether it shall be theirs. With God, there is no respect of persons. Neither is there any royal road to the obtaining of this Divine Love. All must pursue the same Way. That Way is the one that Jesus taught. The opening up of the soul to this Divine Love finding a lodgment therein, which can re brought about only, by sincere prayer and longing for its inflowing.
This Divine Love is the Life of the Celestial Heavens (Kingdom), the only key that will unlock the Gates. When the mortal enters therein, all other Love is absorbed by it. It has no substitute. Is, of itself, a thing apart. It is of the Essence of the Divine (Soul). The spirit, which possesses it is Divine itself. It may be yours. It may be all humans. And, it may not. You must decide that question for yourself. Not even the Father can make the decision for you.
In closing let me repeat, that It is the Greatest Thing in All God's Universe. Not only the Greatest, but the sum of All Things. From It, flows every other thing that brings Peace and Happiness.
I will not write more tonight. With my Love to you, and the Blessing of the Father, I will say goodnight.
Your brother in Christ, John.
August 13th, 1916
I am here, Jesus.
I was with you tonight. I heard the address of the preacher, and the explanation of the cause of the great war that is now raging in Europe. It was a very intelligent and Truthful one, and the real foundation of the war.
I will not came as the Prince Michael, as the preacher said, to establish my Kingdom on Earth, and take into me, those whose names are written in the book, and destroy those whose names are not therein written. I have already come! I am now in the World, working to turn humans hearts to God, and to teach them The Way, by which they may become At-One with the Father and receive into their souls the Divine Love.
In no other way will I ever come to humans on Earth, for they will not need me as a visible king, with the powers and armies of the Spirit World, in visible form to subdue the evil that exists. There will arise no Satan to fight against me or my followers, in the sense that the preacher teaches. Besides, the fact that I am already in World, fighting for the Salvation of humans, there is no Satan.
The only devils, or evil spirits, who are trying to influence humans, to evil thoughts and actions, are the spirits of humans, which still retain all their sins and wickedness, and the evil that exists in the hearts of humans themselves.
How pitiable it is that the preacher, and his followers, believe that the spirits of humans, who have died the natural death, are also dead and resting in the grave, or in oblivion, waiting for the great day of my appearance on Earth, as they say, in order to come again into Life, and be called by me into my Kingdom. How much they lose by such beliefs. How great and surprising will be their Awakening, when they pass through the change called death.
There will be no Battle of Armageddon. Only, as each human, or the soul of each human, is now fighting the battle between sin and righteousness. This is the only battle that will ever be fought between the Prince of Peace and Satan. Each soul must fight their own battle. In that fight, the Powers of God, by His Instruments, which never cease to work, will be used to Help that soul overcome the great enemy, sin, which is of human's creation.
These teachings of the preacher do great harm to humankind, in that they cause the individual human to believe, that I, as the Prince of Peace, will come in mighty power, and in one fell swoop will destroy evil and all who personify it, and thereby do the work, which each individual human must do.
I know, that it will be very difficult to persuade the people of this sect, that what they teach, and what they conclude the Bible teaches, is not True. I hope that when my Truths are brought to Light, and humans have the opportunity to learn the Truth, that many of them will halt in the security of their beliefs, and attempt to understand these Truths. As they must understand them, either in the Mortal Life, or in the Spirit World, in order to enter the Celestial Kingdom of God.
As to these prophecies of Daniel, they have no application to the present condition of the World, and so far as they were written by him, or by any other prophet, they related only to the times in which they were written. No human, inspired or not, and no spirit, had the omniscience to foretell these wonderful things that are now taking place in the World. Any attempts to apply these supposed prophecies to the happenings of the present day are without justification. The results of the imaginations of humans, that the occurrences fit the prophecies.
Peace will come. Not as the result of any Battle of Armageddon, or any other battle based upon the principles, which the preacher applies to these prophecies. As I have said, this battle is going on all the time. It is an individual fight, between the sinful soul, and the creatures of human's disobedience.
So do not waste your time in reading, or listening, to these unreal, and foundationless, teachings of humans, who think that they have discovered the Intentions of God, with reference to the destiny of nations.
I will not write more tonight. At sometime I may say more on this subject, though its only importance is; that it attracts human's attention away from the Truth, and creates beliefs, which do harm.
I will soon come and write another Message of Truth.
I am with you, as I told you, trying to help you, and to show you The Way to that New Birth, which is yours, and all others, who will follow my instructions. I Love you as a younger brother, and will continue to bless you with my influence and prayers.
So doubt not, and pray to the Father. You will find the Truth in greater fullness, and receive corresponding happiness.
I will now stop.
Your brother and friend, Jesus.
August 15th, 1916
I am here, Jesus.
I have been interested in your reading of the messages, and on desires tonight. I know that they will do much good to those who have heard them. I must tell you that there have been present a large number of spirits of all kinds that have listened attentively to what you have read. Many of them are wondering what they can mean, as they only heard the important points of the messages referred to.
You must continue to receive the messages, just as soon as you get in a better condition physically, which will soon be, as you will commence to recover your vitality just as quickly as the weather gets a little cooler.
Tonight, I will not write more, as it is very late. You had better go to bed. I will come soon and write you. So with my love, I will say goodnight.
Your brother and friend, Jesus.
August 26th, 1916
I am here, Jesus.
I come tonight to let you know, that in a few nights I will write you another message, conveying Important Truths that are necessary for humans and spirits to know.
I see that you have not been well, and that your vitality is somewhat exhausted. That it is not best for you to attempt to write much at this time. You had better not attempt to receive any messages, except from your wife. I wish to tell you though, that you will soon feel much better, and will be able to proceed with your work without any interference.
The only part of human that is Immortal is the soul. The spirit is merely the active energies that manifest Life. These energies, for their existence, depend upon the soul from which they emanate. Very soon, I will deliver a message defining just what the soul is, what the spirit is, their relationship to each other, and to the body. So do not trouble yourself about this question, but believe that the soul is the ego, the Real part of human, which distinguishes them from the beast, which has a spirit, as has human, but not a soul. All these matters will be explained before we cease delivering these Messages of Truth.
I will not write more tonight. With my Love and blessings, say to you, have Faith in the Father's Divine Love, and pray without ceasing, and all happiness will be yours.
Your brother and friend, Jesus.
August 28th, 1916
I am here, John.
I merely want to say that you will soon be well, and in condition to receive some of our messages, which we are anxiously waiting to write.
The time is approaching when the book will have to be published. It is very necessary that you get these messages in full, so that you can complete the book. Of course, we want to incorporate every Truth that is necessary to make known to humankind. To do so we will have to work faster.
Well, I knew him well (James the Lesser). He was the brother of Jesus, the Real brother, having the same father and mother that Jesus had. All speculations, as to his having parents who were other than the parents of Jesus are erroneous. He was not an apostle of Jesus. Came to believe in him later in the career of Jesus. When at last he became convinced that Jesus was the True Messiah, he became a very earnest and hardworking follower of Jesus. He was also the First Christian Bishop of Jerusalem.
I have no personal knowledge as to whether he wrote the epistles ascribed to him, or not. He has said that he wrote some portion of the same, and that in it are many assertions of Truth, which are wrong, and which he did not teach. All the writings of the New Testament, as they now exist, contain so many things, which the original writers did not write, and which they did not teach, or believe in, that it is with difficulty that the mortal, even though a great student, can separate the True from the false. That is one reason that enters into our motives for writing a New Revelation of the Truth.
These Truths will be made plain. You must not let the writings of the Bible influence you, in your receiving a correct conception of these Truths. I will not write more now.
So with my Love, I will say goodnight, John.

I am here, Luther.
I will not write much at this time. I am anxious to continue my letter to my followers. As soon as you are in condition, I will come. I hope that you will give me the opportunity.
Well of course, I will have to wait until they have delivered these messages. I have no doubt that there will be times when you will not be occupied by receiving their messages. I thank you, and will come.
I have met both the Popes who were in the papal chair at the time that I went to Rome, and when I was afterward persecuted and brought to trial before them.
They are now in the Celestial Heavens. Before they left the Earth Sphere, they were in very great darkness and suffering intensely. Thus, repentance was very thorough and sincere. They were compelled to realize the great evil that the teachings and dogma of their church was doing to humanity. They devoted all their time in the Spirit Life to attempting to influence the priests and hierarchy of the great errors that they were teaching. The result of their work was not very satisfactory, for reasons that I have not time to explain now.
The state of the ignorant catholic laymen, is a very deplorable one when they come to the Spirit World, but that of the Pope and the priest is beyond all description. They are forever branded by the results upon their followers, of their evil teaching. Consequently suffer very much.
Some time I will come to you and write in detail, into the conditions and causes there is of these blind teachers of the blind. I must not write more tonight.
With my Love, I will say goodnight.
Your brother in Christ, Luther.
