Messages from Jesus and Celestials on Divine Love 1915 November
November 1st, 1915
I am here your Grandmother.
I have been listening to your conversation tonight. I am much pleased to see that you and your friend are growing in your conceptions of the Truth.
The matter of the "unpardonable sin" is one that is of the greatest importance to the World, especially in view of the fact, that so many of the orthodox ministers teach that it is a thing of real existence and is so dreadful in its consequences.
But thanks to the Master, that teaching will not, in the near future, be permitted to go unchallenged. For the Truth in this particular will be made so plain, that humans will cease to believe in it. As a consequence will be relieved from a fear that has kept many a one from seeking the Divine Love and Favor of the Father.
I know that this Revelation of the Truth will antagonize many of these preachers, who see that it is one of the strongest instruments that enable them to keep together their organization. This antagonism will not avail. For the Truth will prevail. Humankind will, when they come to think for themselves, embrace this Truth, with gladness and joy.
How strange that the professed ministers of Christ should so slander and blaspheme the One Loving Father, and cause humans to look upon Him as a God of insatiable wrath. One who, because a human refuses to believe in the doctrines of the churches, consigns them to "eternal punishment and hell". When the get into such condition of hardness of heart that, as your preacher said, "even God Himself will have no Power to save."
Oh, it is pitiable, that such erroneous and harmful doctrines should be taught. Worse than all, by professed ministers of the Loving and lowly Jesus.
So my son, you and your friend, whenever the opportunity comes to combat this monstrous teaching, do so with all your strength and power of conclusion. Show and proclaim to the World that such teaching is not True. That for every sinner, there is opportunity for Salvation. That God Loves the human who will not believe on Him, just as He Loves the believer. Only the former may not partake of the Divine Nature, as does the latter.
I wanted tonight to write this, because I thought that the time was opportune, to impress upon you the falsity of this great dogma, that has no foundation in Truth, or in the Plan of God for the Salvation of Humanity.
Well, I will not write more tonight, as you have others present who may want to write. Before I close, I want to say, in fulfillment of John's statement to you today, that he is present. With him is his great influence of Love.
So with all my Love, I bless you both, your Grandmother. (Ann Rollins)

I am here, Napoleon.
Yes, I am that man who did so much harm when on Earth.
I merely want to say, that I have been told by my daughter of her experience a few nights ago. I became much interested in the fact that she could write to you, and that other spirits could write. I thought that I would try. I found, though, that you have around you a band of beautiful and powerful spirits, and that I had to have their permission before I was permitted to write. But they kindly gave me permission. I am writing.
I want to say that I am the ambitious man that I was on Earth. I realize that I cannot take part in any of the movements or actions of humans, as I am only a spirit. I can associate with them, and influence them, into doing things and carrying out my ideas of what is necessary for France's good and glory.
I frequently visit the headquarters of the generals of the Allies in this present conflict. I know their thoughts, and give them by impression, the benefit or otherwise of my thoughts. In addition, I know what the plans of the Germans are. This war will last some time yet. In the end, the Allies will be successful. I can see all the factors that are working together to bring about that result.
Joffre is a competent man. Kitchener is a good adjudicator. When they unite their forces and enter upon the aggressive campaign with all the force and power, which they have, the Germans will have to retreat. Victory will come to them.
Alas, I also see the great sacrifices that will have to be made. France will become a glorious nation, and the lives that will be sacrificed will be well devoted to the glorious cause.
The spirits are coming over in great numbers. As I see things, they are exchanging an Earth Life for a Spirit Life merely. The latter is the happier one. So what matters it that humans die, when a great nation can be saved. The country for which I fought and suffered, and was exiled, shall become a glorious nation. A nation is only an aggregation of individuals. The individual is not so important as the nation. The nation must be preserved, even though the individual may die.
I have written enough and must stop.
I am in the Fourth Sphere. My dear wife is in the Fifth. She is so much more beautiful and bright, than I am.
Well, I will think of what you said, but until this war is over with and the glory of France is established, I will not think of myself. I am a Frenchman more than a spirit, or rather than the inhabitant of a country that is not of so much importance as France.
So thanking you, I will stop.
I will come again sometime. In the meantime, I will assure you that you have my best and kindest regards.
Napoleon, the first, and as a Great Emperor, the last.
November 1st, 1915
I am here, Von Moltke.
Let me tell you that I am a German. I have heard what the little Corporal (Napoleon!) said. That, while he was a great general when on Earth, yet as a spirit general he is a failure. His dear France will never see the glory that he predicts for her. She is at her best now. When her armies commence that great advance that Napoleon speaks of, they will be met by the Germans and annihilated.
I also visit the headquarters of the Allies, and know their plans. I know that Napoleon is there advising them. He is behind the day of improvement in armament, guns and ammunition. He is also behind the times in his advice. He has found his Waterloo. Never again will he rise to become the great leader of armies. Strange to say, he thinks that he is the same wise, sagacious and tactical general that he was on Earth. He will find his mistake.
The Germans will surely be victorious in this great war. The French will sue for peace, and with them their Allies as well.
It is no use for me to write further on this matter, because I could only repeat what I have said. You my friend, put into your memory, and at the end of the war call forth this prediction: The Germans will become the victors.
Your friend, Von Moltke. (The old strategist of the German armies when France fell.)
November 1st, 1915
I am here, Lar - - - - -.
I am here, John the Baptist.
Well, the spirit who tried to write could not remember his name. He has gone into the Higher Sphere to recover his recollections. He was not a very good spirit, nor yet one in much darkness. He has returned, and says his name is Larkin. That he knew you on Earth. I will let him write, for he is so anxious.
Well, I am sorry that I disarranged things, but really, I could not remember my name until I went to the Fourth Sphere, where I live, and recovered my composure. This is my first appearance in your atmosphere. I was somewhat confused.
I merely want to say that I am a believer now in the future state. In fact, I know that I am alive, even though I died when on Earth. Well, it only goes to show that we can so easily be mistaken in what we think we know, as a result of what we call reason. I am very happy. Not so happy as my wife, who is in the Fifth Sphere, as she tells me.
I have never yet been able to accept her beliefs in the New Birth. Although, I see the result of something in her condition, which she claims to be the New Birth. I cannot believe in it. I am enjoying myself in the society of those who are happy in the exercise of their intellectual faculties only.
I will not write more, so thanking you, I will say goodnight.
November 1st, 1915
I am here, Helen.
You must go to bed and get up earlier in the morning, for you may lose business by not doing so.
I will not write much, but only say that your communications tonight were interesting, if not convincing, as to whether the Allies or Germans will win. Napoleon and Von Moltke were both present. They did not look as if they had much Love for each other.
I will not tell you of my Love tonight, as it is too late, but I Love you. I love my children and have been with them today. Harry is very happy and so is his wife. Edward is as usual. I do not think very happy, how sad! Nita is happy too. She is getting on all right, and as soon as you get some money for her she will be very contented. So you see, I remembered what you said last night. I feel better by having visited them today. Oh, my darling, do not think that I do not Love them, for I do, and that with all my mother's soul. Of course, not as I do you.
So go to bed, trust in God, and believe in the Master. He will do as he promised. Goodnight, my dear old Ned.
Your own True and Loving Helen.
November 2nd, 1915
I am here, St. Matthew.
I have not written you for a long time. I desire to say a few words on matters pertaining to the soul, its relationship to God, Future Life and Immortality.
The human soul is an image of the Great Soul of the Father. Partakes of features like this Great Soul, except, that it does not necessarily have in it the Divine Love, which makes the soul of a mortal, or spirit, a partaker of Divinity. The soul may exist in human, and spirit, in all receptive qualities, and yet never have the Divine Essence to fill it, which is necessary in order to make human or spirit a New Creature. That is the subject of the New Birth.
Only that mortal or spirit who has received this Divine Love of the Father can be said to be Immortal. All others may live, or they may not. It has not yet been revealed to us whether the Life, or existence, of these spirits who have not the Conscious Knowledge of Immortality will continue to live through All Eternity. If they do, it will be because God so Wills that they shall live. Their existence will be subject to change. If such change should take place, only God Knows what its character will be. While on the contrary, the soul that has acquired Immortality, can never die. Its status, as to a Life through All Eternity is fixed. Even God Himself cannot destroy that existence. Because, it (the soul that has received Divine Love and the New Birth) is the possessor of that Divinity, which makes God Immortal.
"The soul that sinneth, sinning it shall die," means that the qualities, which it is necessary for it to obtain to make it a part of Immortality can never come to it. Hence, as regards these qualities, it is dying and dead.
The soul itself will live. No spirit could possibly have an existence without a soul. When humans attempt to teach, that when the Spirit of Life leaves the body, the soul dies, such humans do not state a Truth. The soul will live, as long as the spirit existence continues. Until the great change, should there be one, comes to that spirit. So, all humans must believe that the soul, which God (Created) gave to human, is just as much a part of human, as is the spirit body, or physical body.
The soul is the highest part of human. Is the only part that in any way resembles the Great Father, who is not body, or spirit-body, in form. But is Soul. The human soul, as I have said, is an image of that Great Soul.
So you see, that when we speak of destroying the soul, it does not mean that the soul which belongs to every spirit will be destroyed. But that the essence of the soul, or rather the potentiality of that soul receiving the Divine Love and Divine Nature of the Father will be destroyed.
Of course, the soul can be starved, and placed in a condition of stagnation, so that all its receptive powers will be, as it were, dead. Only some great miracle, or unusual ministration, can Awaken it. To say that the soul ever dies is erroneous. In saying this, I do not include the possibility of some great change in the spirit of mortal, by which such spirit may be destroyed. In such case the soul will cease to exist as an individualized soul, or entity. I do not know what would be the destiny of a soul in such event. Hence, cannot prophesy. But, unless there be such great change, the soul will live. But not as an Immortal soul, possessing the Essence of Divinity, unless it has experienced the New Birth.
God, the Great Oversoul, may not recall to Himself, the soul of any human, in the sense of depriving that human of their soul. But His relation to that soul will be merely that of Creator and created, subject always to the Will of the Creator. Whereas, the relationship of God towards the soul that has received the New Birth, and hence the Divine Nature, is not only of a Creator and created, but also that of a co-equal, so far as this Great Quality of Immortality is concerned. The soul of human then becomes self-existing, not depending upon God for its continuance to exist.
This, I know, is a subject not easy for mortal mind to understand. When you shall have received the soul perceptions, in addition to your natural mind, it will not be so difficult to grasp the exact meaning of my propositions.
I will not write more tonight.
I am your brother in Christ, St. Matthew.
November 2nd, 1915
The First Christian Gentile.
Let me say just a word as to the soul. I have heard what Matthew said. It seems to me that he did not describe what the soul is as clearly as desirable.
My conception of the soul is; that it is that part of the existence of human, which determines for them what their destiny shall be. It is the Real thinking, willing and conscious part of human. The intellect of human may die. This may seem unreal, but it is True, and human cease to exist as a conscious thing. I mean if the intellect was the only faculty that they possess to make them conscious of their existence. The soul, so far as we know, can never die. It has as its qualities and elements, all the perceptions and reasoning powers that the intellect has, and many more. The soul is the only faculty, or part, of human that performs the mission of knowing, reasoning and determining, after human has passed into the Seventh Sphere. Consequently, unless these soul qualities, or perceptions, are developed by obtaining into the soul the Divine Love, a human, or spirit, cannot get into the Seventh Sphere. For he would be wholly unable to live there, and understand, or do, anything in that Sphere.
The soul needs no instructions from the mere physical senses, because those senses are not suitable to be used in the operations of the soul's faculties. Hence, a human, who never cultivates these soul senses, as I will say, is not capable of understanding the Higher Spiritual Things of the Celestial Spheres.
I will not write more tonight, but will come again.
Your brother in Christ, St. Cornelius.
November 2nd, 1915
I am here, Semiramis.
I was a Greek maiden. I only wish to say that I desire to tell you that I am a Christian. I live in the Celestial Heavens where the Master is forming his New Jerusalem.
I was on Earth, a pagan, as I was called. I believed in the philosophy of the Greeks, also of the Egyptians, who had written many works dealing with the soul, and its destiny. I then believed in the immortality of the soul, the Elysian Fields, for those spirits who should obey the gods, and do those things, which caused the soul to seek the Higher Planes of Truth and Happiness. After I became a spirit and met some of the beautiful Christian spirits, I had an Awakening. I became convinced of the Truths of Christianity and the Wonderful Plans of God for the Salvation of Humankind.
So I merely wanted to say this, and to write. Your band permitted me to do so. I will not detain you longer, but must stop.
Will say that I am, your sister in Christ, Semiramis.
November 3rd, 1915
I am here, Saelish.
I was, when on Earth, an inhabitant of the Great Empire of Assyria, of which Nineveh was the capital. I was not a king, but was one of a great king's magicians, or wise men. When I lived, was a human of great influence and power in the kingdom.
I came tonight to tell you a Great Truth, in connection with the soul. As you may infer, when I lived, we knew nothing of the One and Only God. We worshipped many gods, great and little. We believed that these gods could help or harm us, just as we deserved their help, or their injurious workings. So our many gods sometimes came in conflict in their treatment of us poor mortals, so that we at times hardly knew whether our gods were our friends, or our enemies.
Of course, the help that we sought for was all of a material nature. Never did we think of help in the way of preparing us for a Future Life; that we supposed was only for those of us, who by our great achievement in battle, or in intellectual pursuits, would upon death, become gods ourselves. The poor ordinary mortals were only intended to live the Mortal Life, at least during the incarnation that they then had. Their expectations were that perhaps in some future incarnation, they might have the opportunity, and the favors of the unknown gods, so that they might become gods themselves.
This was the substance of the beliefs and hopes of the Assyrians at that time. Many millions died in that belief. Are now inhabitants of the several Planes of certain Spheres of the Spirit World. None of them has ever returned for a new incarnation! Thereby, start on their way to become gods. This, for the reason, which is sufficient to satisfy them when they became spirits, sooner or later. Those humans, who they supposed had become gods when they died, were in the Spirit World, spirits themselves. Not gods at all.
So you see that the soul, when once it leaves the physical body, never returns again to any physical body. But continues in the Spirit World, to exist as a soul with a body of spirit form and substance. No spirit has ever experienced the sensation of becoming reincarnated. This is the Truth that I wished to tell you. That the soul, when once it leaves the physical body, never again finds its habitation in another, or the same, physical body, but forever thereafter occupies the spirit body, and that in the Spirit World only.
When a mortal dies, Earth, so far as being the home of that mortal again in earthly body, becomes a thing of the past. It is a mere way station, which has been left behind. Will never again appear as a stopping place on the spirit's line of progression.
I thought it might do good for me to write this tonight, for it is the information from a spirit, who long years ago lived on Earth, and believed in this Doctrine of Reincarnation, and who during all the long years of its Spirit Life, has learned and experienced the Truth. That reincarnation is a fable, and has no real existence. No, the soul never retraces its steps, or its method of existence. For it never goes back from the spirit to mortal.
I know, that on the Earth today, there are thousands of mortals who believe in this Doctrine of Reincarnation. Many thousands more have died in that belief. But they live and die in that belief. Only when the Truth comes to them, do they realize that their belief was an erroneous one, and that they will never reach Nirvana by retracing their Course of Life through the physical body.
The soul never dies. Always lives. Whenever its position is such as to justify progression, it progresses.
I live in the Sixth Sphere. I am considered to be a very exalted spirit, in my intellectual acquirements, and in my condition of freedom from sin and errors, which belonged to me on Earth. And, which belongs to every mortal (on earth). My happiness is very great. My home and surroundings are beautiful.
This Sphere is a wonderful place, not only because of the surroundings, and homes of the inhabitants, but because of the great mental and moral development of those who live in that Sphere. No spirit, who has not that development, can live in this Sphere because of its unfitness.
Male and female spirits enjoy this wonderful development and their intercourse in the intellectual things that exist in this Sphere is free and frequent, and the interchange of thoughts brings much happiness and satisfaction.
We do not know of any Spheres beyond the Sixth, although we have heard it rumored that there are other Spheres. But we give little credence to these rumors, because none of us, I mean the inhabitants of this Sphere, has ever found a higher one, and many of us live in the highest planes of this sphere.
No, I have nothing else to write tonight.
Well, I, of course, cannot say that is not True. I do say that you astonish me beyond all belief, for I cannot imagine that any spirit can make higher progress than we have made.
Well, what you tell me surprises me. I would like to investigate and discover the Truth of this matter. I do not know how to commence such investigation, or where to start. Is it possible that you can show me The Way, in which I can commence this investigation?
I have done as you suggested. I do see some wonderfully beautiful spirits. They seem to be so very happy, too. And interested in you. One says she is your grandmother. She seems to excel the others in her beauty and brightness.
She says she is very willing to start me in my investigation, and herself to tell me the great secret of the great progression that you speak of. If I will accompany her, she will commence at once.
While I write, there comes another beautiful spirit. Says that she formerly lived in the Sixth Sphere, and lived there many thousands of years before I lived on Earth. She says that she was an Egyptian, and that her name was Saleeba. That now she is an inhabitant of the Third Sphere, in order to prepare herself for the Great Progression that she will make to Spheres high above the Sixth. She tells me that after I have conversed with your grandmother, she will be pleased to talk to me, and tell me her experience. I will be with her, you may rest assured.
All this is so wonderful to me, that I hardly know what to think or do. I will try to find the Truth of it, if it can be found.
So, as I have written you a long time, expecting to enlighten you, and not be enlightened myself. I am now so anxious for that enlightenment. I will say that I am glad I came to you, and Goodnight.
Saelish.
November 4th, 1915
I am here, Leekesi.
I was a human who lived in the time of the destruction of Ninevah. I was an Assyrian official. I am not mentioned in history, for my time was short, though in it occurred some of the most important acts of the whole history of that land.
I was not a believer in the God of the Hebrews, though in my time I had heard of that God. Many Jews lived in my domain, yet I would not let them worship that God, or in any way teach my people the religion of the Jews.
Our gods were many, and were worshipped by the inhabitants of the nation, in accordance with what might be the desires of these people. When the gods answered the prayers of the people, they were thought to be good and true. But, when the answers did not come, the gods were false. New gods were made, and worshipped, according as they answered the people's prayers, or not. So you see that our gods were the creatures of humans, and not humans, the creatures of the gods.
Notwithstanding this false idea, as I now see, of God, there were humans of deep insight into the matters pertaining to the Spiritual World, who did not make, and worship, the gods that I have spoken of. But who were able to look beyond these material things, and discover that there was such a thing as a higher condition of the Afterlife, in which the souls of human could find happiness and knowledge of the existence of a real and mighty power that would bring them into a state of existence where humans would realize the Higher Life of the soul's predominance.
These humans were not numerous, and did not associate with the inhabitants to any extent. But lived to themselves, and evolved certain philosophies, which satisfied them of Truths, which our common beliefs did not comprehend. These humans also taught these Truths, but not very generally, and only to those who might become their followers.
In my time we had, what you would call churches, priests and officials of high position in the religious organization, and feasts, ceremonies and sacrifices. These powerful ecclesiastics were very jealous and intolerant of anything, which interfered with, or in any manner controlled, their religious teachings, or the power, which they exercised over the people, and the government of the kingdom as well. Consequently, these philosophers that I speak of were not permitted to disseminate their speculations, or philosophies, among the masses. Were compelled to write their doctrines, or teachings, in a language, which the common people could not understand.
This was the condition of the religious part of my kingdom, at the time of its destruction. Many of my people who survived this destruction, who were scattered into other countries, took with them these beliefs in the multiplicity of gods, and worshipped as before their dispersion. In time these beliefs commenced to permeate the beliefs of the people among whom they lived, until the belief in many gods became the general belief of many other nations. You will find in history, that many nations, which became great after the fall of my kingdom, such as Greece, Rome and others, continued the belief in a multiplicity of gods.
Not until the spreading and adoption of Christianity by them, did the belief in the One True God become the established and universal belief of these nations, and of the people thereof.
Human made the gods and worshipped them, until the Great Master came, and proclaimed the Truth of the One and Only existing Father. Of course, an exception must be made in the statement in favor of the Jews, because they had only One God. Even they had different names for their God, which were applicable, and used, in accordance with the qualities that they ascribed to Him. It was only after Jesus came did that One God with many names of the Jews, become Our Father, the God of Love and Salvation.
From all of this, you may suppose that I am a Christian. Well, I am. I live in the Celestial Spheres. I must tell you, that I became converted to the Truths of the Teachings of Jesus many years ago. My progression, in the development of my soul, has been such that I am now in the Celestial Spheres.
I merely wanted to write this to show you that human has been a maker of gods for so many years, that they cannot be numbered. That it was only when the Great Truths came, with the coming of Jesus, that the Real Existing God, and All His Attributes were Revealed to Humankind.
Yes, I know, many of the people who lived in my time. Long since, have never learned the Truth of the soul development, and live in the happiness, which has come to them with the progress of their intellects. Many of them have also been brought into the Light and Truth.
I will not write more, but will say, goodnight, Leekesi.
November 7th, 1915
I am here, Gregory.
I was the great pope of Rome, who did so much to establish the Romish Church on a firm basis, and to extend its powers and influence throughout the World.
It has been many years since that time. I have had many experiences in the Spirit World. I first suffered and lived in darkness. Then got into the Light of the Spheres where the mind is supreme. I progressed in those Spheres until, I found that the happiness, which came to me from my associations and pursuits there, was not sufficient to satisfy the cravings of my soul. I had learned in Life, that there was a God of Love. Although, I had never found that God. Yet, these recollections of what I had, in an intellectual way learned, came to me. I was not satisfied with the happiness of the intellectual spheres. As a consequence, I sought the spirits who I knew were possessed of the Divine Love of God. I besought them to teach me The Way to that Divine Love. After a long time, I became the possessor of that Divine Love, and started on my road of progression to the Celestial spheres, where I now live.
If I had only known on Earth, what Soul Religion meant, and not given all my thoughts to the politics of the Church, and to extending its powers and jurisdiction, I would have avoided many long years of suffering and darkness.
So you see, there is Only One Way to the Heavenly Home, and the Happiness, which belongs to the Father's Kingdom, which the Master is working so hard to establish. That, through the teachings of the Master, which, if understood, and followed, ensures the seeker of that Divine Love, which makes all spirits inhabitants of the Heavenly Kingdom, and gives them a Celestial Happiness.
I do not find that the Church has improved much since my time. Many popes and priests are now going through experiences similar to the ones that I passed through. Many believers in the dogmas of the Catholic Church find that these beliefs are not helping them, but rather retarding them in their souls' progression.
I could write a long letter on this subject, but have not time tonight. I thank you for receiving my message. I would like to come again, if agreeable.
Your friend and brother in Christ, Gregory, the Pope.
November 7th, 1915
I am here, John Critcher.
You must remember me, for I had my office in the same building with you when I practiced law.
Well, I am in a condition that gives me considerable happiness. Yet, I am not in that state of happiness, which I expected to have when I was on Earth.
As you know, I was an Episcopalian. I tried to observe strictly the doctrines and formalities of my church, and expected when I died to go to heaven, and find rest and nothing to make me unhappy. I was mistaken in this. I found myself in the Earth Plane of the Spirit World. I had to undergo some suffering and darkness, and did not find the "heavenly rest" that I expected.
I have progressed since I came over. I am now happier and in more Light.
I was passing, when I saw the Light that comes from your room. I looked in and saw you, and asked permission to write. Your band consented, so I am writing.
No, thank you, only sometimes you can give me a kind thought and good wish.
So thanking you, I am, our friend, John Critcher.
November 7th, 1915.
I am here, Helen.
Dear old Ned, of course, when you call me, I must come. I see you are tired. I will not write much.
I was with you at the church. The medium saw the spirits she described, for they were present. The Sarah was Cousin Sally, as you call her. She showed the medium her funeral at the little town where she lived.
The child was a stranger, but seemed to be attracted to you, and wanted to talk and tell you something. She was very young and very lovely. Her name was Rosebud. She was a bud, because when she came to the Spirit World, she was only a few days old. We have all petted and loved her since she came to you. I expect that she will be with you often, for she seems to be drawn to you.
The James was a spirit that I never knew. He says he was your uncle, your father's brother, and that he was anxious to make his presence known to you. He is not a very bright, nor yet a very dark spirit.
Well, you must remember that the bond of attraction between your father and him has died. They are in altogether different Spheres. As I have told you before, that fact that spirits were related on Earth, does not bind them together in the Spirit World. When a spirit first comes into the Spirit World, the relatives, unless they live in a Very High Sphere, generally meets them. After a little time, that attraction ceases. They seldom meet. So it is that I never met your uncle. Of course, your father knows many spirits here that I do not know. So you see, the Spirit World, in that particular, is not very different from the Earth World. You have cousins whom you have never met, and do not know the existence of. So we spirits here have many relatives that we never see or know. I know this may seem strange, but it is a fact.
I will write a long letter soon. I must stop now. You are tired.
So with all my Love, I am, our own True and Loving Helen.
November 8th, 1915
I am here, St. Chrysostom.
Yes. I merely want to say that I am one of your helpers in the work, which you have before you to do. I will help you with all my power.
I know that many spirits will help you, and that a wonderful power will be exerted by the spirits work. Especially by the Celestial Spirits, to make successful the work of your mission, and that there can hardly be a failure. Nevertheless, I want to have some of my writings to from a part of the book that you may publish. Not for any self glory, but because I believe that way, Truth will work good to those who may read them. Besides, the individual who does the writing may have an influence with some that another individual might not have.
I will not write longer tonight, but will soon come to you and write a long message on an important Truth.
So, thanking you for your kindness, I am, your brother in Christ, St. Chrysostom.
November 8th, 1915
I am here, Jesus.
I want to tell you tonight that I am very much interested in the way in which you are doing your work among your acquaintances, in the matter of bringing them to a realization of the Truths of Spiritualism, and the importance of believing in the Truths, which are communicated to you. I refer more particularly to the two instances in which persons who had determined to commit suicide have abandoned that idea, and now realize that it would be a most grievous sin to take their lives. I heard what was said today by Mr. Morgan, in reference to the young lady who had contemplated such an act.
For your encouragement, I must tell you that the good that you are doing the darkened spirits, in the method that you have adopted, is beyond any conception that you may have, and beyond the powers of your spirit friends to inform you.
If all this is an indication of what good my messages will do when you shall have received and disseminated them to the World, then I know that success will attend your efforts. The Truths of my Father will quickly spread and be believed.
So you see the necessity for doing this work with all possible speed. I will write a message very soon.
I am with you a great deal. I am trying to help you in everyway.
So with my Love and blessings, I will say goodnight.
Your friend and brother Jesus.

Moses, the Prophet of God of Ancient Days.
I have been with you on several occasions when some of the ancient spirits wrote you. I was much interested. I am still the faithful servant of God. In addition, a believer in Jesus, who is the greatest of all the sons of the Father. The Only One of All God's Messengers who brought to Light, Life and Immortality.
I could not have said this before his coming. I mean that I could not have said that other great reformers and teachers of the Truths of God had not done this. Because I did not know, before the coming of Jesus, what Life and Immortality meant. No human, or spirit, before that time knew this Great Truth.
I am now in the Celestial Heavens with many of the old prophets and seers, who have received this Great Gift of the Divine Love. Many who lived and died since Jesus' time are also Celestial Spirits partaking of Immortality. I now see that many of my teachings were not True, that Love did not enter into them, but rather the spirit of retaliation, which is absolutely no part of the Truths of the Father. The Jews still look upon me as their great teacher and lawgiver. Many of them observe, literally, my laws.
I want to tell you this fact, because I believe that when you publish the Messages of the Master, should you publish also, what I may write, many Jews will believe me, and that I, and many of those who taught my teachings, are now engaged in showing the spirits of Jews who come into the Spirit World, the Truths as taught by the Master.
The Jewish nation is the most strict of all people in their beliefs in, and observations of, their religious doctrines, as set forth in the Old Testament. Hence, will be among the last of all humans to accept the Truths, which I now understand and teach. I hope that something, which I may communicate to you, will cause them to think, and become believers and observers of this New Revelation of the Truth.
They have fought and suffered for their religion in all these centuries. Are still doing so. The one great thing that more than any other has prevented them from accepting the Teachings of Jesus, and believing in his Mission to Humankind, is that his followers, or those who attempted to write his teachings, and those who interpreted the same, declare, and maintain, that Jesus is God. That the true God was three instead of One, as I, in the Decalogue, declared. This has been the great stumbling block to the Jews. When they read, as they may, that Jesus himself declares and proclaims that he is not God, but only his son, and that they are also his sons, they will look upon his teachings with more tolerance. Many of them will be inclined to accept his Truths, and the Truths of the Father. Judaism, in its religious aspect, will gradually disappear. The Jews will become a part of the One Great Religious (Spiritual) Brotherhood of Humans. As in our Celestial Heavens, there will be on Earth, no more Jew, and no more Gentiles. All will become One in their belief in the Father and the Mission of Jesus. He will be accepted as the Messiah, not only of the Jew, but also of the Whole World. Then God's Chosen People will not be a very small minority of God's Children, but the Whole World will be His Chosen People.
I am so interested in this phase of the Great Truths that shall be given to, and accepted by, humans, because I was more, than any other human, responsible for the present beliefs of the Jews, which causes them to hold themselves separate and apart from All the rest of Humankind, as the chosen and specially selected of God's People.
I will not write more tonight. I feel that I must ask you to permit me to write again, as I have a mission to perform on Earth, to undo a work, which I so effectively performed when I was the leader of my people.
As Jesus is teaching, and will teach, All Humankind, The Way to the Father and Immortality, I must teach my people The Way to get rid of these erroneous and false beliefs, which are contained in the Old Testament.
So thanking you, I will say, goodnight, Moses. The Lawgiver of the Jews.
November 11th, 1915
Let me be the one to tell you of the Truth of what you want to know. I am one of the first of the great philosophers of ancient Greece, and was known as Plato. I was a disciple of Socrates, and a teacher of his philosophy, with additions. He was not only a great philosopher, but the nicest and best human of his time. His teachings of immortality were then, far in advance of those of any teacher. No human has since surpassed him in his conception of the soul's destiny, or its qualities, except the Great Master, who knew and brought to Light the Great Truth of Immortality.
Socrates and I are both followers of the Master, and inhabitants of his Heavenly Spheres, where only those who have received the Divine Love of the Father can live. As I followed Socrates on Earth, I so I followed him in the Knowledge of the New Birth, and in the possession of the Great Love, which brought to us Immortality.
I cannot say much more tonight as you are too tired to receive any thoughts. Sometime, I will come and write you of this Great Truth, and how far short my philosophy was in its attempts to teach immortality.
I see that you have received many messages from the spirits who are Higher than I, and who know more about these Divine Truths, yet, I think that my experiences in regard to the teachings of this great subject may do some good.
I will not write more, but will say goodnight.
Your brother in Christ, Plato.
November 11th, 1915
I am here, your father.
I have been much interested in your conversation tonight. I see that your two friends are firm believers in Spiritualism, and in the communications while you receive from the spirits who profess to write.
Of course, Dr. Stone who is a believer of some years standing, has no doubt whatever. Mr. Morgan, having so recently embraced this belief, is at times a little skeptical. This is natural. His belief will grow, we firmly believe, as do you, in the near future. He will be a great help to you and to the cause. He is now undergoing that change in his ideas of Life here, and on Earth, that he will soon realize the Truths, as we shall teach them to you.
I want to say a word in reference to the message, which you received from your friend, Mr. L. He is a spirit in a very dark and depraved condition, and shows upon his spirit countenance the results of his dissipated Life on Earth. His soul has very little development. His mind is in such a condition, that he will require much discipline through suffering, before he will commence to see the Light, and comprehend that the Truths of God are Eternal and never change, and that he must accept these Truths before he can progress much. He was so anxious to write to you, and expressed his desires in such a pitiable way, that we thought it would do him good to permit him to write, and he did. Mr. Riddle has talked to him and endeavored to show him The Way to Light and relief. At this time, he is not in condition to receive, or understand these Truths. He has gone back to his dark and dreary condition and his hell as he calls it.
We will not desert him, though, but will continue to use our influence and Love to help him. In course of time, he will realize that he must ask help from the Father. Then he will receive it. He is not of a very reverent turn of mind. His ideas of Earth are with him still, and will remain with him until he becomes persuaded that there is only one thing that will take him out of his darkness and suffering.
There is another thing that I wish to tell you, and that is that he is still visiting the barrooms, which he so frequently visited when he was on Earth, and is drinking his whiskey and other accursed drinks, as he thinks. The attraction of this stuff, and these places, is holding him fast to this manner of living. So you see his Life here is not much different from what it was on Earth. Only he is not able, of himself, to indulge in these appetites, but must use the appetites and organs of some of his late Earth friends to satisfy his appetite. This, of course, is a matter of imagination. To him, it is as real as was his drinking on Earth. For the time being, causes him to believe that he is actually satisfying his cravings. While he is not doing so, he is working injury to some mortals, whom you know, in that he is causing them to drink more than they otherwise would.
Oh, the curse of habits and evil appetites, once acquired and never gotten rid of. So his only salvation now, is for him to have some great Awakening as to his True Condition. Then his reform may commence. Until then, it is almost hopeless to try to help him. I will not write more of him tonight, but say that we will not permit him to write again until he gets into a better condition.
We are all very happy, and are with you a great deal, Loving you and trying to help you. You must not let your worries possess you so much, for they do you harm. Yes, I know that it is difficult not to worry under such circumstances. Soon you will not have cause to worry, as we have told you.
Well, you may lose Faith. We can hardly blame you, but the relief will come just the same.
I will not write more tonight.
Your loving father, John H. Padgett.
November 11th, 1915
I am here, Mother of Eugene Morgan
I am his mother, and must say one word before you stop writing. I have been with him today. I saw his condition of mind, in reference to his friend who has just come into the Spirit World, and want to assure him that she is now in a much better condition than he may think. I have been with her (Jenny Lawson) ever since she came over. In fact, I was waiting at the portals of this Spirit World when she ceased to be a mortal, and took her in my arms, comforted her, told her that there was nothing to fear and that she was with friends who Loved her and would help her. She did not seem to be much confused, because when we whom she knew to be dead, as she thought, came to her in our familiar forms and with our voices so natural, that she could recognize us, she thought of what my boy had told her of the Spirit Life. The result was, that she believed that we were whom we said we were. As a consequence, she seemed to lose all fear or dread and to come into a condition of security, just as if she were visiting me while on Earth.
She is not very Spiritual in ideas of the Real Truth of things of the soul. I see that her beliefs of Earth are with her, and that the poverty of her Soul Development, causes her to experience darkness. Soon she will have some sufferings, but she will not remain in darkness very long. Her mind will soon open to our thoughts of Truth, and her soul to the influence of our Love. I want to tell my son this; that he may remember it, and apply the Principle in his contact with others of Earth, that the one little Seed of Truth, which he caused to find a lodgment in her soul, helped her, more than I can tell him, in her realizing the exact condition of her being when she came to us.
We are all very happy and thankful that Love is doing its work in the soul of my boy. His father is with him quite often. He says that some days ago he heard you suggest to him that he should have a spirit band to help and protect him. His father will form that band, and soon tell him who is with him. I have written long and taken your time. I thank you for your kindness. I will show my appreciation by trying to help you, as well as my son.
So believe that I am your friend, and that I Love you with a Love that is that of a sister. Give my Love to my boy. Tell him to think of his mother, and believe that she is with him, trying to help him with her Love and influence.
So again thanking you, I will say goodnight, the mother of Eugene Morgan.
November 13th, 1915
I am here, Helen.
Yes, I was there and enjoyed the show. The pictures contain a very Important Truth that all women should understand and appreciate. So many refuse to become mothers and perform the duties that God intends them to perform. I have no doubt that the pictures will have a good effect on many of them, and make them think, before resorting to that means of getting rid of the unborn babies.
In my investigation of the subject of babies who have come to the Spirit World, as a result of abortion, I do not find that they ever go back to their Earth mothers, for any purpose whatever. There are spirits who are specially designated to take care of babies. In cases where the natural mothers have succeeded in cutting short the lives of these babies, these spirits who have charge of these babies in the Spirit World, never permit these babies to come in contact with their unnatural mothers, or visit them. This because, the mother's Love is not there to receive these poor little waifs. Where there is no mother's Love, there is no attraction existing that will cause the return of the babies when they have once left their mothers.
In the case of babies who prematurely die, or of those who die very young, these babies do return to their mothers, under the guidance of their guardian spirits, and receive from their mothers their Love and feelings, which are going forth to these babies.
The Law of Attraction operates here, as well as in other matters. This is the Law in reference to babies who die early.
When there is existing a mother's Love, the baby will return and receive this Love and help from coming in contact with such mother. When there is no mother's love, there is no attraction. The baby may never know its mother.
In many cases, the baby, before the mother comes to the Spirit World, finds other attractions. Hence, there is no feeling of Love or sympathy between the baby and its mother.
It frequently happens that when the mother comes into the Spirit World, she finds the spirit of the unborn baby. In a way, has a uniting. Rarely is this Love strong enough to keep them together. The Law of Attraction separates them, and then each goes their own way.
I will not write more.
Your own True and Loving Helen.

I am here, William Stone. (Dr. Leslie Stone's father)
I am the father of the Doctor. I want to tell him that I am with him very often trying to help him, and make his material affairs become more successful. I am also with him in his soul aspirations, for I can see that he is more in The Way to learn the Truths of the Life in the Spirit World, and of the destiny of mortals, after they become spirits. So if he will, at times, give me a Loving anxious thought, I will be able to come into closer rapport with him, and impress him more consciously as to what I think is wise for him to do, or not do.
He may be surprised that I am here. I have been present on several occasions, when his soulmate, his mother and your wife have written to him. I have observed the effect upon him of the communications, as given and received.
While his soulmate is with him so very much, and is closer to him than any of us, yet his mother and I have a great interest in him, and Love him very much.
I am his guardian angel. I have looked after him, ever since I entered the Spirit World, and became imposed with the duty of looking after him. I only wish to tell him this tonight. I am very happy. I am in the Fifth Sphere, and expect to soon get into the Seventh Sphere, where his mother is. I am afraid that before I do so, she will leave for the Celestial Spheres. So I will have to strive again to reach her. I have nothing further now to say tonight.
Well, his brother is in the condition that his mother told him, and is suffering a great deal. He will soon see the Light, and get relief. Some of your band, who seem to Love his mother so much. are working with him. He seems to be interested in them, and believe that they are really trying to help him.
I would prefer if he wait until I come again, as this is my first attempt at writing. I want to be in condition to answer any question that he may ask, without confusion. So tell him that I will come again, and will be willing to answer his questions.
So, bidding you goodnight, I will leave you both my Love and best wishes.
His Father, William Stone.
November 19th, 1915
I am here, Helen.
I signaled you. I wanted merely to say that I have been reading with you, the pamphlet. I want to tell you that it is not True. It is all wrong, misleading, and will never save a soul from sin. The writer is so filled with the idea that God commanded the observance of the seventh day as the Sabbath, that he, the writer, can see nothing in all the Bible that is of such great importance as the keeping of the Sabbath.
The Sabbath, as a religious institution is not of more importance than any other day. The human, who believes, that by observing this Sabbath day, can reach that condition of Soul Development, which will fit him for an entrance into the Divine Kingdom will, when they come to the Spirit World, find them self much disappointed. The keeping of this day, as these people teach, or of any other day, will not develop their soul qualities, or make them One with the Father. Or, even give them a great development of the Natural Love. The doing, or refraining to do, those things, which the commandment, which is the basis of their belief, directs to be done or not done, will only benefit them, if they will try to get into attunement with the soul requirements, which are necessary in order to become partakers of the Divine Love.
So do not let the thoughts, or argument of this pamphlet, influence you in any way, as regards the Essentials, to a correct understanding of the Plans of God for the Salvation of Humankind.
As Jesus has told you, he will not come to Earth "with a shout surrounded by his angels, and catch up into the heavens" these Adventists, or any other human beings. He will come, and is now coming, into the souls of humans, through his Teaching the Workings of the Holy Spirit, and in no other Way.
He is not the God of wrath and judgment that they teach, but merely the True Son of his Father, and comes to all humans, in love and sympathy, with the great desire that humans shall turn away from their evil thoughts and seek the Divine Love and Mercy of the Father.
I felt that I wanted to write you this, as I realize what great errors are contained in that pamphlet. Humans may be lead to believe these errors.
While you may read such literature, do not let it, for one moment; cause you to turn your thoughts away from the Pure and True Teachings of the Master. For if you, or any other human, should base your salvation on what is taught in such writings, you will be deceived. When you come to the Spirit World, you will be greatly disappointed in not finding what such writings may lead you to expect.
I must not write more now, as you are not in condition to write further.
Your own True and Loving Helen.
November 21st, 1915
I am here, your old Professor Salyards.
I merely want to say that I am very happy. I want you to know that I am progressing in my condition of Soul Development, and in my Knowledge of the Truths, that pertain to the Spirit World. I have not written you for a long time. I would like to tell you of certain Truths, that I have learned, since last I wrote you.
Well, I find that I am now in a condition of Soul Development that enables me to see the Truth of what the Master has told us, in reference to the Real Existence of God, who knows what His Creatures are doing, and in what way they are making use of their souls and bodies. I mean that this God is one having all the faculties that you would suppose only a Being would have, who had a personality and form. I can hardly understand how a mere essence, or formless existence, could have such powers and qualities.
I never, until recently, could comprehend the Real Truth, and Meaning of God, who could have the wisdom, Love and power that I was taught such God possessed. Such comprehension is beyond the finite mind! Can only be accepted as a REALIZATION of an Existing Condition, or Truth, by means of Faith. Yet now I have more than Faith to enable me to understand the fact that this God, whom we call our Father, for He is, has all these Qualities and Powers. Such understanding is to me, a wonderful and unexpected addition to my Knowledge of God.
This understanding of course, is not a thing that arises from any exercise of the mind, or the result of any mental power or quality, which I may never have realized that I possessed. Is the result of the exercise of my soul perceptions, which have become so great and in such condition of Unison, or Harmony, with Our Father's Qualities of Soul, that He, and all these Attributes appear to me as Real Perceptible Existences, having a certainty of comprehensible being, as do the existence of spirits and their attributes. So you see what Soul Development may mean, and what its possibilities are. No mere development of the intellectual qualities, or attributes, could ever lead to a comprehension of the Personality of God, as I have described it.
I never in all my Life, natural, or spiritual, conceived, or expected, that it were possible for any soul of mortal or spirit to see God, as I now see Him. I never could understand what was meant by the beatitude, "the Pure in heart shall see God", except in this sense, that as we became pure in heart those Qualities that were ascribed to God, would become a part of us. As such possessors, we could see God, or rather the result of those Attributes of God in our souls.
I do not know whether you can fully comprehend what I intend to convey to you. I have tried my best to put the idea in such language that your mind may understand, to some extent, what my meaning is. I know that you will never fully know what this great soul perception is, until you have experienced what this development is in your own soul, which is necessary to enable it to see, with the clearness, that I now see.
I thought that I would tell you of this progress of my soul, so that you might have some faint idea of what the development of the soul means, in a way other than an addition to the development of the Love Principle. Really, all phases of its development are part of, or dependent upon, and resultant from, the development of this Love Principle. Divine Love is the Fulfilling of the Law. Law includes that, which enables us to perceive that God is a Personality, having these qualities that I speak of.
I see that I have written enough for tonight. If you will carefully read what I have written, you will find much food for thought, and probably some help to a correct, concrete comprehension of who and what God is.
So, expressing to you my gratification and pleasure in being able to come to you again, and having you take down my ideas of who Our Father is. Also for the opportunity to declare, that God is a Being, having an Existence of His Own, comprehensible by the soul perceptions of the Redeemed of His Creatures, I will say, goodnight.
Your old professor and brother in Christ, Joseph H. Salyards.
November 21st, 1915
I am here, St. Stephen.
I want to say only a word. At the time of my martyrdom, I saw the heavens opened, and the spirits of the just made perfect, so now I can, by my soul perceptions, see my God as a Real Personal Being, full of Divine Love and Mercy.
Let no human rest in the assurance that God is only a formless spirit, without the Attributes of seeing, hearing and knowing what the thoughts and deeds of humans and spirits are. If they do, in the time of accounting, they will be deceived in their false security.
I am in a condition of Soul Development to Know the Great Truth; that God is a God of Real Personality! When I say this, I do not mean individuality, in the sense that you are an individual soul. What I mean by Personality, is that all these Attributes of Love, Power, Knowledge and Mercy do not constitute God, but are merely a part of His Being, and flow from Him in their operations upon humans, in fact, upon all the Things of the Universe.
I will not enlarge upon this Truth. As it has been explained by those who preceded me. I will say this, that because a human with a finite mind cannot understand this Truth, it by no means follows that it is not a Truth. For it is, and in the Great Future, every human who has received the necessary Soul Development, will learn and Know this Truth.
I will not write more tonight. I will say to you, continue to seek this Great Development of your soul (in Divine Love). You will not be disappointed in coming to the REALIZATION that God is Our Father of the Master, the Close Personal and Loving Father.
With all my Love, I will say goodnight, your brother in Christ, St. Stephen.
November 21st, 1915
Let me say a word, as I was also present at the meeting tonight, and listened to the preacher as he unfolded what he thought to be the truth of God and human.
Well, I will not stop to discuss many of the errors of his teachings, or the workings of his mind. Only say, that if God is as he considers him to be, he would not be the God, which we know to exist, and who Loves us, and whom we can call Father. The "all enfolding energy" is not the God of Love and Mercy. The preacher cannot possibly find in such a God, the Father that is calling for and Caring for His Children.
I merely wanted to say this.
I am an inhabitant of the Celestial Kingdom. I will say goodnight.
Thomas B. Monroe.
November 21st, 1915
I am here, your own true and loving Helen.
Well dear, I see that you are not very much enlightened by the preacher's discourse tonight. I do not see why you should be. He has no True conception of either God, or human, and gave no help to those who are searching for the True God, the Father.
I see that you may feel that you are benefitted though by the negative lesson that his discourse teaches. He tells of what he "thinks" God is. In telling this, demonstrates that he knows nothing of the True God. You may hear the full course of his lectures, and you will not learn much that will benefit you in an affirmative way. But attend the same. Then meditate upon them. You will find that you have listened to a man who knows nothing of God, or the Spiritual World, of which he pretends to speak.
We all Love you, and want you to love us.
Goodnight, your own True and Loving Helen.
November 22nd, 1915
I am here, Jesus.
I have heard what the Professor said to you. You must try your best to comprehend its meaning. For it contains a description of the True Conception of God, in a way that, only one having the developed soul perceptions could explain. The only difficulty in the way of your fully understanding this idea of who and what God is, is that the idea is not one that the mere mind can grasp. Only the soul, that has been developed to a sufficient degree (by the Divine Love), can comprehend. Yet, you may be able to conceive of its meaning to an extent that will enable you to get closer to Our Father as a Real Personal Father, and not as a being of formless existence only. I mean that the idea of Personality may bring the Father nearer to you, so that you may realize a deeper meaning of His Love, Care, Mercy and interest in you, and in All His Creatures.
In my message on God, you will find that the idea of Personality is spoken of, but not emphasized, so much as in the writing of the Professor. The Truth is that Our Father is, to the soul perceptions, a Being of Real Existence and Personality.
I know how difficult it is for the mind to conceive, even in a faint way, how such a Personality can be a part of a Being who is declared to be a mere spirit without form or limitation, and everywhere at the same time. I tell you that it is a Truth, that by the soul's faculties, is comprehensible the Personal Attribute of the Father.
Of course, humans will not understand this Truth, so long as they depend upon the mere intellect to comprehend it. To them, it may not mean much, but it is of the greatest importance to humankind, both in their lives on Earth, and in the Spirit World. "Thou, God seest me", is not a mere meaningless generality, which humans repeat and do not understand. God does see every act of human. As I said when on Earth, "not even a sparrow falls without my Father knowing it, and the hairs of your head are all numbered". So if humans will only learn that this Great Truth is of such importance, they will take more care of the manner in which they live their lives.
As I was saying, humans must realize that God Knows, not only their acts, but also their thoughts. Every idle thought will have to be accounted for. The penalties, which His Laws impose, will have to be paid.
So, if humans would only realize this fact, of God's being able to see and Know what their lives on Earth are they would many times think before they do some things which they do, supposing that no one but themselves know of them. I am very glad that the Professor wrote to you on this subject tonight. It is one that is very important in our Plan of Revealing the Truths of God and His Attributes.
Very soon, I will write you another message, one that will be very important to humankind. I will come again soon, and tell you of some things that you must learn.
So with all my Love and blessings, I am, your own brother and friend, Jesus.
November 22nd, 1915
I am here, St. Luke.
I want to add my testimony to that of Professor Salyards, as to "Who and what is God". Of course, since the Master has substantiated what the Professor wrote, and enlarged on it, my testimony is not necessary. Yet, I desire to say a few words, which are expressive of my Knowledge, arising from my own EXPERIENCE.
I have a Soul Development (in Divine Love), which is greater than that of the Professor. Thus, a perception, which is clearer and more convincing than his, is. Yet, what he has said is all that I can say, as to the Truth of the Personality of God, except that to me it is undoubtedly much clearer and of longer acquaintance.
I know that God is a Being that has Personality, though not a form like unto human, but has all the Attributes that have been mentioned. These Attributes are not God; merely Qualities, which He possesses, and which in their workings upon the hearts and souls of humans, emanate and flow from Him. You may better understand this if I call your attention to the fact, that while you can see, feel, hear, Love, and dislike, yet these attributes, or qualities, are not you, only those things that belong to your personality. You may be deprived of any, or all, of them, yet you may not cease to exist as a personality. So with God; while these things of Love and Wisdom, and Loving and Hearing, do not constitute God, yet they are a part of Him, and are exercised by Him. Just as the qualities I have mentioned are exercised by you.
I know it is difficult for the mere mind to comprehend this Great Truth of God having a Personality. Yet it is a Truth. Just as Real to the perceptions of the developed soul, as is the existence of yours or any human's personality to the finite mind. Here is another fact in connection with this Great Truth. That is; that only the spirits who have experienced the New Birth and become filled with the Divine Love of the Father, hence a partaker of His Divinity, will ever be able to perceive this Great Truth of the Personality of God.
No other spirit will ever receive that Soul Development, which is absolutely necessary for it to possess, in order to perceive the Great Truth under discussion. Yet the mere fact that these other spirits do not comprehend, or understand, this Truth, does not make it any the less a Truth. All humans, and spirits, are subject to its operations. Must come under the benefits that they may receive by reason of the workings of this Truth upon their lives and thoughts.
Just because humans cannot see God, it does not follow that He does not see them. For He does. Their every thought is Known to Him, and taken account of. Strange as it may seem to you, or as I should more appropriately say, surprising as it may seem to you, that account is kept in the memories and consciences of humans themselves. When the time comes for them to render an account of their acts and thoughts, no other place, or receptacle, is sought for, or examined, to find this account, than these very memories and consciences. Nothing can be hidden, or lost, until it has fulfilled the purpose of its existence.
Humans may create, but they cannot destroy. I refer now to their actions and their thoughts. While on Earth, they may forget, and ease their consciences by forgetting. Yet, when they come to the Spirit World, and are called to render an account, the Inexorable Laws, that are really their judges and executioners, show them that there is no such thing as forgetting. And has been said, they have forgotten to forget.
God is Being, Self-Existing and Unchangeable, but full of Divine Love and Mercy. These, He does not exercise in any individual case, but has made certain that His Laws of Mercy will so operate, that all the spirits of humans, and mortals also, may by their own acts and desires place themselves in such condition of soul, that these spirits will receive the benefit of this Mercy. Yes, His Mercy, is from the beginning, waiting for all humans to ask for it and want it, just as is His Divine Love.
I could write on this subject for a longer time. I must not write more tonight, as you are tired, so I will close.
With all my Love and blessings, I am, your brother in Christ, St. Luke.
November 23rd, 1915
I am here, St. John, Apostle of Jesus.
I want to tell you tonight about the things that spirits who have not received the Divine Love of the Father do, or have done to them, as you may say, in order to get out of their darkness, or suffering, and progress to a happier condition.
Well, when these spirits of evil, or sinful, Life first come into the Spirit World, they enter what is called the Earth Plane. When I say the Earth Plane, I mean those Spheres, which are nearest the Earth, and partake very largely of the material. They are received by their friends, who may have been with them at the time of their passing, and are, to a certain extent, comforted and made familiar with their surroundings. This may last for a shorter or longer time, according as the spirit is capable of understanding their changed condition from mortal to spirit. After this condition of consciousness is assumed by the spirit, these friends leave them. Some guiding spirit, whose duty it is to perform the task, shows or conducts them to the place or Plane, which they are fitted to occupy, which by the workings of the Law of Equalization, they must occupy. In this place, they are surrounded by, and must associate with, spirits of a similar condition of development as their own, until some change comes to them, which fits them for a Higher place.
Of course, this change may come in a short time, or it may require a longer time to bring it about. All this depending upon the realization by the spirit, as to what their condition is, and the fact that there is a possibility of progressing. Of them self, they cannot bring about this change. The Law, which fixes their place, or condition, does not cease to operate until there is called into operation another Law, which permits and helps the change. The only way in which this changed condition can be brought about is by the influences of other spirits, of a more enlightened and higher position, than that of the spirit whose position I have spoken of. These influences do not necessarily come from spirits who have received the New Birth, but may come from spirits who know nothing about it, and who have only the Natural Love. Even they may not necessarily be of a high order of development of either intellect or soul. They must be in such condition that they know, and are able to tell, the lower spirit of the possibility of progress, and the way in which it can be made.
Many spirits, who are them self in a dark position, or condition, can help others who are in a darker condition. Just as on Earth, a student of a lower class in school may not be able to teach all that is taught, or may be learned, in that school, yet they can teach those in a lower class than their own, things that they have learned in progressing to their own class.
All spirits have a work to do. These spirits of little development are engaged in teaching those of lesser development, the way to get in the same condition as those who teach are in. Of course these latter cannot teach anything that belongs to a higher condition, than the one in which they are. In such cases, the progress is very slow for many reasons. It sometimes takes centuries for a spirit to progress from this very low plane to a higher one where only the lowest grade of happiness exists.
So you see, that in order to help these dark spirits, it is not necessary for the helping spirit to be one who has in their soul the Divine Love. All this means, that the spirit who is helped in this way cannot possibly progress higher than its Natural Love, moral conscience, and intellectual endowments will permit. No progression of the soul to a Realization of the Divine Love of the Father, or to the Celestial Spheres.
This is important for you, and all humankind to know. For the reason that you, and others, may learn what the True Soul Development means, and how effectively spirits possessing this Soul Development may help all other spirits, good or bad. Aside from this, you may suppose that the spirits who hear you talk at the sances, where all kinds and conditions of spirits congregate and promise to help both mortals and spirits, and may not be able to do so, because some are in a dark and low condition themselves. Yet all spirits may help other spirits to some extent, who are in a lower condition. Sometimes, in the beginning of the progression, more satisfactorily, than can the higher spirits, because these dark spirits who try to help the darker spirits, are more in harmony with them, and the darker spirits will listen to them with more interest and belief that they can help them.
This is a help that does not work in such a way as to cause the spirits who are so helped to lose their desires and recollections very rapidly, and to progress into the Higher Planes, without the great suffering that you have been told of.
I thought I would write this to you, for the reason that you might not in your investigations and teachings of the Spirit Life, give due importance to the possibility of one dark spirit helping another. All the phases of mediumship, when honestly conducted, have their proper places, and work in God's Plan of Redemption. None of them must be considered as useless, or without special design.
Of course, the above mentioned phase of assistance to spirits is of the lowest form, and is merely preliminary to the Great Work, which the Higher Spirits do, in carrying out the Great Plan of Redemption, which has been explained to you. The important work is that of the spirits who know what the Divine Love of the Father is, and what fits spirits and mortals for the enjoyment of the Great Happiness, which obtains only in the Celestial Spheres, and also, in the Soul Spheres, to a lesser extent.
When a spirit who is dark learns of this Great Love, and strives to obtain It, and earnestly prays for the Help of the Holy Spirit, which is God's Messenger of Divine Love, it will progress much more rapidly. Its sufferings and darkness will leave it sooner and Greater Happiness will come to it.
Still I say, the work of these lower spirits that I have spoken of is a great work and must not be underestimated. So remember what I have written. Give due credit to this work.
I will not write more, but will, with all my Love and blessings say goodnight.
Your brother in Christ, St. John.

I am here, your loving father.
I am the father of that boy (Dr. Leslie Stone). I want to say to him that I am happy too, but not as happy as his mother. I am not in her Sphere. I am striving to get there and enjoy her home. My son, I am also happy that you are trying to follow the Steps of the Master and in your Love for the Father, and in your soul aspirations.
Believe in this Truth. You will not be disappointed. When the Great Day of Reunion comes, you will find more Love waiting for you, than you ever thought possible for a spirit to receive.
So trust in God. Follow the Teachings of the Master. I know, as one who was ignorant when on Earth, and now have learned since coming into the Spirit World.
God Bless that dear Mother of yours! If it had not been for her, after she came into the Spirit World, I probably would not have as easy a going in my progress in the Spirit World, as I have had. I was a human, enjoying the happiness which my good nature and Love of things generally gave me. When your mother came over and I saw that she had a Love, which I had not, and which I must get in order to be with her. When she told me about it, I sought for the same kind of Love, which she had. With her help, and the help of the Father's Holy Spirit, I obtained this Divine Love. I am now very happy, but as of now, I am not with her. She is so beautiful and good that I am not satisfied to be away from her. I am trying with all my soul's desire to progress and be with her.
So believe what we say to you, and trust in God. You will be happy.
Your loving father, William Stone.

I am here, Mother.
I want to say one word to my son before you stop writing, as I feel so much Love for him tonight. I am so anxious to let him know that I am with him and feel that he is my dear loving boy, whom his mother is so much interested in and so thankful to God that he has found The Way to the Father's Divine Love.
Oh, my boy, if you could only know the happiness that you have given your mother by having sought and found this Divine Love of the Father, you will also thank God, that you had the opportunity to make your mother so happy.
I am your own dear mother. I will always Love you and pray to the Father for you, and for your happiness and wellbeing of your soul. Your sisters are here too. They are among the Redeemed, and enjoy the happiness, which the Divine Love gives to them. They want me to tell you that they are happy too, because you have found the Great Love and Mercy of the Father.
So press forward in your Soul Development. You will find a wonderful happiness and Love, not only on Earth, but when you come to us as well. Your Mary Loves you too as you know. Her Love for you is something wonderful, and beyond what we can tell you, and beyond your comprehension.
I will not trespass longer tonight as your friend is tired and should not write much more. I must say that I am so glad that you met him, and have the benefit of his knowledge and experience of these Higher Things of the Spirit World.
Be always friends. You will both realize a wonderful out flowing of Love from the Higher Spirits, from the Father, and also from Jesus, who is the most wonderful and Loving Spirit in all the Celestial Heavens.
I will stop now. In doing so, give you all my Love and blessings of a mother whose Love is without limit.
Your Loving mother, Priscilla Stone.
I want to tell my brother that he must not leave until I tell him that I Love him too. I am praying for him with all my heart. I am with him very often, trying to help him. So he must believe me, and Love me too.
I cannot write more, but I Love him.
Goodnight, Sister Kate.

I am here, Mary Kennedy.
Your wife did not mention my name, so I thought that I would tell you myself, for I am of much importance to my dearm as any of them that she mentioned. I wanted to tell him that I am right here and close to him. I will not let even his mother take my place, though I Love her very much, and she Loves me. But she knows that I am entitled to the first place, and that I will not let anyone take my place.
I am with him nearly all the time, trying to help and comfort him, and make him have good thoughts, and wishes for me. So he will understand, when you read this to him, that I intend that he shall know that I am with him, and won't let him forget me even if he wanted to, which I do not believe.
I was with you on Friday night, but I did not write or say anything, as his mother, grandmother, sisters and brothers were so anxious to communicate with him. But now, while I am here, and have the opportunity, which is mine by right of love, I intend to be first to write him. He must not think I am a bit jealous, for I am not. You know that when a sweetheart has a chance to write to her soulmate, she is going to do it, or try very hard. They can write too, but they must wait until I get through. Then they can tell him whatever they wish. So tell him to Love and think of me, and wish that I may be with him very often.
I am progressing in my Soul Development. I am very happy. The only thing that when he is around makes me happier, is to have him with me. But that will not be very soon, for he has a work to do before he comes over. He will have to wait until he does that work.
I am so glad, though, that he has this work. As he is doing it and helping others, he will also help himself, so that when he does come over he and I will not be separated for a very long time.
I suppose I have written enough under the circumstances, and should let others write, but I certainly wish that I could have one evening when I could take my time, and tell him of a great many things that I want him to know. So tell him that I am not stopping because I want to, but because decency requires it.
He is my own True Love. I love him with all my heart. Sometime he will know what this means.
So with all my Love for him, and my sister's Love for you, I will stop.
His own True Mary.

I am here, Jesus.
I am with you tonight in your Spiritual exaltation. I will show you the Love that you crave for, and will cause you to feel that the Father is very near you in His Divine Love and Blessings. So you must let your thoughts go out to the Father. He will come to you with an abundance of Divine Love that will make you realize that he is your Loving Father. I was with you at the Colburns, and saw that your Love was very great, and that you needed a response. I tried to make you realize that I was with you and Loved you very much.
The music was very beautiful and caused a rapport, which drew us very close together. You were very happy in the thoughts of Love and Peace that came to you. I am so glad that you are free from your cares tonight, as I want you to feel that the Divine Love of the Father is with you, and is filling your soul, so that you can realize that His Divine Love is a Thing of Reality and Substance.
I will let you see how much you can become At-One with Him, and what a Joy and Peace the Divine Love of the Father brings to you. So, as I say, let your thoughts turn to Him. Let your prayers ascend to Him. You will soon know that His Kingdom is within, and of you.
I am now going to tell you what a Loving Father He is, and what Great Desire He has that you believe in Him and in His Love for you.
He is not a God of wrath and anger! His Only Desire is that you shall Love Him with all your heart. So become so close to Him that you will know that He is the Father that I have told you of. He does not want you to let anything on Earth keep you from becoming His Own Dear Son, and a Follower of His Truths. I know, that you are now very near the place where your soul will be filled with His Divine Love, and your Faith will have such strength that never again will it be shaken by troubles or doubts.
In the near future, you will be able to receive from me my messages, in that condition of Soul Knowledge that will enable you to get them just as I desire to give them to you, and so to the World.
Be more Faithful in your aspirations for this Divine Love, and more in condition to believe what I may write.
I am your own True Friend and Brother, and have an interest in you that will enable you to overcome all temptations, and all the worries, of your Earth Life.
My Love will strengthen you in your Faith, and in your realization that I am your friend and brother, and that, I am able to fulfill my promises that I have made to you. Let me again impress upon you the necessity of prayer and Faith, and the necessity to seek continually, the Help of the Father.
I must not write more tonight, but will soon give you another message.
I will do so, as I think it will be more satisfactory to write it anew.
You were not in good condition when I wrote it. Some things were not as clear as I desire. You will be stronger when I write again. The message will be more satisfactory. So try to obtain more Faith. You will find that our writings will be more successful.
So, with all my Love, I am, your friend and brother, Jesus.
