Messages from Jesus and Celestials on Divine Love 1920

February 2nd, 1920

I am here, Scott

Let me write. I am your old friend, Scott, who died a few days ago. I know now what death means, and how we are punished for the things done on Earth. I am suffering my share of the penalty. I come to you because you had told me on Earth of the future of humans who die. I am now convinced that what you told me is True, although I know very little of what my fate here is. I only know that I am living, and suffering. Beyond that I do not know anything.

I am glad that I can come to you, and hope that you will help me, if possible. I have written Morgan. He promised to help me. If you only knew how much I need help you would not hesitate one moment, for I believe that you are my friend. I realize that I am not in condition to know anything of the Truths of religion. There does not seem to be anyone here to help me. How strange that my folks have not met me, for I believe that they must be interested in me, if any dead person can be.

I am tired and must stop.

I am here, Jesus.

    Well, my disciple, I realize that your desires are that I shall deliver a message to you tonight.  I am anxious to do so.  Yet I see you are not in condition that I may take possession of your brain that is necessary in order to write satisfactorily.  I am sorry that this is so, but it is a fact.  We will have to wait awhile longer, which will not be very long, for you are much improved.  If you continue to pray, you will soon become in that soul condition that will enable me to make the rapport.

    There are many messages yet to be written.  I am anxious that you receive them, in order that they may be delivered to the World.  The World is now Awakening to a greater realization of the fact that human is Spiritual, and must have Spiritual Food.  The war is causing many people to think of the hereafter, and the destiny of the soul.  The knowledge that the World now has of the Future Life is very meager and unsatisfactory.  Merely a knowledge that the Spirit survives death, and experiences more or less happiness in the Spirit Life.

    As you know, this is not the Vital Thing in the destiny of human.  While a knowledge of the survival of human from the death of the physical, may, and does, give a great deal of consolation to the near and dear ones who are left on Earth, yet that fact does not, in the slightest degree, determine the condition, or destiny, of the soul that has left its home in the flesh.  There are no means, now known to humans, to show that destiny, except some things written in the Bible, which are the subjects of much speculation, controversy, and want of belief.  The consolation of those who have faith in the Bible, is founded on that faith, or rather, in most cases, belief.  There are a number of believers in the Truths of the Bible, with a conscious soul perception of their Real Meaning, who have that Faith, which makes certain to them the facts of destiny, and the possession of Divine Love in their souls.

I will come soon, and endeavor to write a formal message.  In the meantime, let your prayers ascend with more earnestness and longings to the Father.

    As you know, I Love you as my brother and disciple.  I am with you as you pray each night, uniting in our prayers.  You must let your Faith increase.  Believe that your prayers are being heard.  You will be answered to the fullest.

I will not write more now.

So my brother, goodnight.  May the Father Bless you with His Greatest Blessings.

Your brother and friend, Jesus.

I am here, Jesus.

I am here as I promised last night. I will write on the subject of the Incarnate Soul.

You may have observed, in your studies of the different theories of the Creation of Human, that always the question has arisen, as to the relationship of the Spiritual and physical. That is, as to the soul, and the material body. I know that many theories have been set forth, as to how, and when, the soul became a part of the physical body. What was the means adopted by the Laws of Nature, as they are called, for the lodgment of the soul into that body, and the relationship that one bore to the other. Of course, this applies only to those mortals who believe that there is a soul, separate in its existence and functioning's, from the mere physical body. As to those who do not believe in the distinctive soul, I do not attempt to enlighten. But leave them to a realization of the fact, when they shall have come into the Spirit World, and find themselves existing without such body, but Really Existing, with the consciousness that they are souls.

When the physical body is created, it has no consciousness of its having been created, for it is merely of the unconscious creations, that are of the other material Creatures of Nature, and does not feel, or sense, in any degree, the fact that it is a living thing, dependent upon the proper nourishment of its mother for its growth and continued Life, in accordance with the Laws of Nature, and the objects of its own Creation. The father and mother being necessary to the creation, or formation of this merely animal production, know only, that in some way, there has come into existence an embryo thing that may eventuate into a human being, like unto themselves. If this thing were allowed to remain without the soul, it would soon fail to fulfill the object of its creation, and disintegrate into the elements of which it is formed. Humankind would cease to exist, as inhabitants of the Earth. This physical part of human is really, and only, the result of the commingling of those forces that are contained in the two sexes, which according to the Laws of Nature, or of (Laws of) Human's Creation, are suited to produce the one body, fitted for the home of the soul that may be attracted to it, to develop its individuality, as a Thing of Life, and possible immortality.

The result of this commingling is intended only as a temporary covering, or protection, for the growth of the Real Being, and does not in any way limit, or influence, the continuous existence of the soul. When its functions have ended, the soul, which has then become individualized, continues its Life in new surroundings, and in gradual progression (in the Spirit World). The mere instrument used for its individualization, is disseminated into the elements forming its appearance and substance. As this body was called from the elements for a certain purpose, when that purpose shall have been served, it returns to these elements.

This body, of itself, has neither consciousness, nor sensation. In the beginning, has only the borrowed Life of its parents. Then, when the soul finds its lodgment, it has only the Life of the soul. For the Human Life can exist only so long as the soul inhabits the body. After such habitation commences, the borrowed Life of the parents ceases to exercise any influence, or directing force, on the body. This then, is really the True description of the physical body. Of it were all of human, they would perish with its death, and cease to exist as a part of the Creation of the Universe of God.

The soul is the vital, living, and never dying, part of human. Is Really the Human. The only thing that was intended to continue an Existence in the Spirit World. It was made in the image of God. There is no reason for its existing for the continuing companionship of the physical body. When humans say, or believe, that the body is all of human, and when it dies, human ceases to exist, they do not understand the relationship, or functioning, of soul and body. Know only the half Truth, which is visible to their senses, that the body dies, and can never again be resuscitated. This is a determined fact. All arguments, by analogy, to show that human must continue to live, notwithstanding the death of that body, are not apposite, and very inconclusive. All these analogous appearances only show that the objects of the analogy ultimately die. Thus, fail to prove that these objects are Eternal, just as much as if there had never been any change in their condition or appearance. The final demonstration is; that they die. When this analogy is applied to human, it must show that they die also, and is no more.

The questions are asked; whence comes the soul? By whom created? How does it become incarnated in human? For what purpose? What is its destiny?

First, let me state that human has nothing to do with the Creation of the soul, or its appearance in the flesh. Their work is to provide a receptacle for its coming. A mere host, as it were, for its entry into the flesh, and existence as a mortal, or in the appearance of a mortal. Their responsibility, in this particular, is very great. For human can destroy that receptacle, or care for it, so that the soul may continue in Earth Life a longer or shorter time. While this receptacle is the creation of human, and without them it could not be brought into existence, yet the soul is no part of their creation, and is independent of the body. After the Earth Life, in the Spirit World, it will cease to remember that it was ever connected with, or dependent upon, the creation of its parents. The soul, in the Spirit Life, as a Truth, is so separated from, and dissociated with, that body, which was its home while in the Earth Life, that it looks upon it as a mere vision of the past, and not a subject for its consideration.

As has been told you, the soul was Created by the Father, long before its appearance in the flesh. Awaited such incarnation for the purpose only of giving it an individuality, which it did not have in its preexistence. In which, it has a duplex personality, male and female, that is needed to be separated, and made individual. We, who have had this preexistence, and incarnation in the flesh, and have obtained this individuality, know the Truth of what I have here stated.

There is a Law of God controlling these things, that renders these preexisting souls capable of knowing the desirability of incarnation. They are always anxious, and ready, for the opportunity to be born in the flesh, and to assume the separate individuality that they are privileged to assume. As humans provide the receptacle for their appearing and homing, as it were, they become aware of the fact, and take advantage of the opportunity to occupy the receptacle, and become, ostensibly, a Human Being, with the necessary result of individuality.

I am glad that you are in a better condition. I will continue the messages, as we have been desiring to do for some time.

I shall be with you, and help you in every way. I hope that you will keep up your Faith, and prayers to the Father. Goodnight and God Bless you.

Your brother and friend, Jesus.

I am here, your own true and loving Helen.

Well, dear, the Master will not continue his messages tonight, as you are not so well. He does not feel it best to draw upon you, as he would be compelled to do, if he were to continue, or attempt to continue, the message of last night. So I will write you for a short time, and tell you of someone here, and very anxious to communicate with her soulmate.

Of course I mean Mary. She is all aquiver with excitement, as you mortals might say, at the prospect of writing to the Doctor. So I will let her come and write. You must be careful, and not let her write too long, for what she has to say would require you, in order to receive it, to write for the balance of the evening.

Mary now writes:

Well, I am here. I want to say a great deal, but as Helen has warned you, I will not trespass very long. Helen does me an injustice when she said I would want to write all the evening, for I am as considerate of you as is possible, notwithstanding my opportunity, I realize your capacity.

Tell my dear one that I have waited a long, long time to communicate with him and that although I have the advantage of him, in that I can see what his thoughts are, and know just how much he Loves me, yet I also desire to tell him of my Love for him, and want him to know it. He is my own True Lover. I realize that no other woman can come between him and me, even as to any earthly Love that he may have. Just here let me say, that I am not reflecting on you, for I know what the circumstances are in your case, and how it is best that you should have someone to comfort your last years on Earth. He does not need such a one. I shall always be sufficient for him, as he is for me. Tell him that I am very happy in the knowledge that he is all mine, and that my Love for him is all that is necessary, and that my efforts to make him happy never cease.

I am now in a Higher Sphere than when I last wrote him. I realize what the Wonderful Divine Love of the Father means more than ever. Also, that with this increased Divine Love, I have greater Love for him. I am with him more often than he is aware of. I am pleased that the thinks so much of me, and Loves me as he does. His Life will, at the longest be very short. Then I shall have him, with the full consciousness that no earthly pleasure, or condition, can ever for a moment separate us, and that the Bliss, which I have will be nearer his than he can imagine. I really believe that when he comes over, it will not be very long until he will find his home with me, and enjoy the happiness of my home. A wonderful home, not like anything on Earth, or that has been conceived of by human. No, it is beyond description. The nearest approach to a description that he can understand is, that the Father's Divine Love is in, and about it, in a degree that renders everything beautiful and grand. He must not despair of coming to me, for he will come, as surely as the sun shall rise. Then he will know what happiness means, in the experience of actual enjoyment. I am so very happy that I can write to him tonight, and encourage him with the knowledge that all these things will be his, and forever. He, I know, is not surrounded by those things which ordinarily make a human happy. He has greater wealth than these things can possibly give him. He has much of, not only the Father's Divine Love, but the Love of a soulmate, who is all his, and ready to give him the Real True happiness, that only a Union with a soulmate in the Celestial Heavens can give. He must continue to pray for an increased inflowing of the Father's Divine Love, as that shall come to him, I shall be able to see that the soulmate Love for his Mary will increase also.

I would like to write of many things that are here in such Reality and grandeur, but as you must not write much more, I must forego the pleasure. This he must know, that my Love is all his. The many mansions spoken of by the Master, will prove to him to be a Reality. Not the mere hope that so many mortals rely on. I send him a kiss, yes, many kisses, such as only angels can send. If his soul be opened up to their coming, he will realize what it means.

Good night, I thank you. With my love to him, and the assurance that I am watching over him, and sympathize with him in all his earthly worries, will sign myself his Loving Mary.

Helen now writes:

Well dear, she has written. Says she feels much better. I know she does, for she looks very happy and grateful for the privilege. I am with Mary, in her expressions of Love, hope, and certainty. You must believe that these things that she has spoken of, will be yours when you come to join us. Why dear, you cannot appreciate what all this means to you, and to us! We are truly thankful to the Father, for the privilege of knowing that we have on Earth, a soulmate, the very necessary part of ourselves with whom we can talk and communicate the inmost feelings of our souls.

It is a privilege that not many mortals enjoy. It is no wonder that men and women are earnestly seeking a way by which they can come into communication with their Loved ones, even if these are only their Loved ones for a short time.

If they only knew what it means to be able to talk to a soulmate, and have that soulmate tell him of her Love, and the wonders of it all, they would become more anxious than ever. The faith that they now have would cease to satisfy. This cannot be so at this time. It may be well that men and women generally are not fitted for such an experience.

You know how much I Love you, and what this Love means, and that there is no other Love in all the Spirit World, except the Father's Divine Love, that can so satisfy and make happy.

I must stop now, for you have written enough. Do not forget that Baby is anxious to write. You must give her the opportunity to do so before long.

You will soon feel well again, and be in condition to perform your work, which to you just now, is the important thing. So I will say goodnight.

Your own True and Loving Helen.

February 27th, 1920

Let me write a short time tonight as I see that you are anxious to hear from some of your friends in the Spirit World.

I have not written for a long time, though I have been desirous to do so. Tonight will say only a few words, in reference to my progress and happiness in my condition as a Celestial Spirit. For I am now in the Celestial Heavens, and know the Truth of many things that have been written you.

It is a little difficult for me to recite to you the wonders of these Celestial Heavens, and the Perfect Happiness that is enjoyed by those spirits that have found their home and abiding place in the many mansions that Jesus spoke of while in the flesh. You must know that Heaven is a place, as well as a condition. Notwithstanding the fact that so many of the Spiritualists teach that, it is only a condition, or state of the soul. No, this is not all of the Truth, but is a great part of the Truth. The condition of the soul, determines just what Heaven it shall occupy, and find its Harmony and Happiness in. The All Loving Father, has provided that the soul shall have a place, corresponding to its condition, in which it may live, and progress. If heaven were only a state of the soul, then it would not be a Real, Existing Thing, with the substance and Reality that the soul even in its state of bliss must have as a necessary accompaniment to the enjoyment of what the Father has provided for its True Condition of Living.

Heaven, as a place, is Real, and independent of the state of the soul, though it is necessary for the soul to be in a corresponding state, in order that it may enter into this Heaven, and fully realize that it is a home suitable for its condition and enjoyment.

If it, I mean Heaven, were not a Real objective and perceptible place, then the soul would be limited by its own condition. That would be very narrow, as I may say, and confined to the limits of its own state, and separated from the states of other souls. Without the social intercourse, that makes Heaven a place of such Happiness and contentment. Every soul, would then be in the condition of the ascetic in Human Life. Introspection and contemplation would be the source, and only means, of possible Bliss, and knowledge, of those things that are spoken of as beyond the heart of human to conceive of, which are Truly and Certainly provided by the Father's Divine Love, for the continuous and never ending progress of the soul towards Higher and Greater enjoyment, would have no Real, Conscious existence in that soul.

As human, in their Earth Life, in which condition of the soul determines their Heaven, is provided with those surroundings and material things that are intended to make them happy, or miserable, so in the Heavens, things material are provided to enable the soul of human to better enjoy its own condition. The Things of Heaven are not all Spiritual, as conceived by so many humans, but are partly composed of the Material of the Universe, and are so constituted and formed, as to supply the desires and wishes of the soul with that, which will satisfy the soul's longings for Beauty, Harmony and Perfect Enjoyment. In the several Heavens are homes, Real and Substantial, suited to the states of the souls, and differing, as those states differ in their requirements. These material things are not subjective as so many mortals teach, but are objective as are things of earth, and are the objects of sight and touch and of the other spiritual senses.

When I desire to go into a city, and indulge my desires, I find a city with streets, avenues, houses, and other things that belong to a city. Just as do you mortals of Earth, when you visit your cities. So, when I desire to go into the country, and enjoy the fields, hills, streams and gardens, they are all here, Real and Existing, not the subjects of mere thoughts, or state of my soul. When I am absent from city or country, that city or country continues to exist, in all its beauty and magnificence, just as truly as when I am present.

Humans must know that the soul, in its Heavenly Life requires these material things, and has them, just as a soul, when enveloped in a body of flesh, requires the material things of Earth. While the condition of the soul determined its place of living, yet that place is also Existing, Real, and awaits the coming of that soul in a condition of Harmony. In these Heavens, there is nothing nebulous, or impalpable, or only a reflection, or image of the soul's condition. Everything is Real, Substantial, and lasting as the Eternal Hills. When the soul finds a habitation, it is not the effect of its own condition, but a place already prepared for the habitation of that soul, and in accord with its True Condition. Otherwise, Heaven would be a place of confusion, and of appearances and disappearances, with no stability, or abiding qualities. The many mansions, spoken of by Jesus, as existing in his Father's House, would have no real, permanent being, but depending for their creation and existence upon the mere state of the soul. The mansions are there, and change not, whether or not they shall have occupants, depends upon the Harmony of souls, in their correspondence with the Harmony of God's Laws, Creating these mansions.

I have written you this short description of the Heavens, as based upon my knowledge and experience, devoid of speculation, or metaphysical musings.

I am glad that I could write you again. I am very happy, and Know that the Divine Love of the Father is a Thing Real and Transforming. The all sufficient thing, to create in the souls of humans, and of spirits, that state, which will enable them to have and enjoy the Mansions of the Father in the Highest Heavens.

I will not write more now. Goodnight.

Your friend and brother in Christ, A. G. Riddle.

March 7th, 1920

I am here, Jesus.

Let me write a line, for I see that you are desirous to hear from me, and obtain the encouragement that always flows from my communications.

I have been with you tonight, as during many nights passed, with the desire to write you upon subjects important to the work that you are to do. I was prevented from doing so, only by the condition in which you were in, that prevented me from making the rapport. As I have told you before, we are governed by Law in regards to the kind of messages that we may communicate to you. Unless you are in condition that will permit these Laws to be complied with, we are powerless to use your brain, for the purpose of delivering our messages. You also know what the remedy is for the defect that may exist at any particular time. We have urged upon you to seek this remedy, thereby get in the proper and necessary condition that will enable us to make the rapport. You have not been successful in applying the remedy. Not because it is not available to you, but because of your course of thought, and failure to pray to the Father for an inflowing of His Divine Love into your soul, thereby causing the proper influence to be caused upon your brain, which will enable us to take possession of its functioning, and deliver the messages that we have to communicate.

You are in better condition tonight than you have been for some time. I hope that you will continue to think of these Spiritual Truths, and pray to the Father. If you do this, we shall soon succeed in writing to you many of the Truths that we are so anxious to communicate.

There are very many of these Truths yet to be Revealed to you. Some, of far greater importance than you have already received, except those relating to the Divine Love. We are anxious that you receive them, as rapidly as possible. For they are needed by humankind. Many souls are longing for the Truth, that can only be made known through you. So my brother, think deeply of what I have said. Let your work be to you, the most important thing in your Life. As you know, you have only a few years yet to live. If you do not do our work, it may be that a lifetime will elapse before we may be able to get another who shall have the qualifications that are required. You, sometimes, I know, realize the importance of your work. Lately, and more often, you let your thoughts turn to, and become absorbed in, things that are of the mere Mortal Life. As a consequence, the Greater Things are put aside, and neglected. I like that this may not continue. We will be with you, and give you all the help that is possible for us to give. I hope that from now on it may be successful.

Tonight, I will not write upon any subject of a formal character. I wish to say that we are ready to continue our messages, and are dependent, only upon you getting in the condition that will enable us to do so.

So think of what I write. Pray earnestly to the Father. You will be able to overcome this inclination to lower your thoughts to these material things. We understand just what you need to enable you to turn your Life on Earth. As we have told you, these things shall be provided. You will not be compelled to suffer for anything of this nature that is necessary for your comfort, or living. Only trust in us, and do the work, instead of thinking of these things.

I will come soon and write another message that will be of importance and far reaching with its effect upon the belief of humans. Many spirits are with you, watching over you, and ready to help. You must believe this, and act on that belief.

Well, as I have said, it is because of your want of condition. The spirit who moves your pencil, are those who merely have the desire to write, and are not present to do so. Your guide, the Indian, is a very careful guardian. Will not permit many of them to intervene. Occasionally he does let one write, so that you may know that there are many spirits surrounding you, ready to take advantage of the opportunity to write.

Until our work is accomplished, this kind of spirit will not be permitted to write. You will remember that sometime ago, we suddenly stopped the spirit in darkness from writing you and asking your help. This was done, not that we did not want these spirits to get all the help possible, but because the work that we are doing, are just now, of more importance to Humanity, as well as to spirits. Every other kind of communication must be stopped, in order that our work shall proceed. Then you will see how important the work is. For ordinarily nothing is of so much importance as the rescuing of a soul from sin and ignorance.

I will not write more tonight.

Yes, I will pray with you. I hope that you will let all the longings of your soul enter into your prayers. The greater the longing, the greater will be the abundance of the Divine Love received, in answer to your prayers. I will come soon, goodnight.

Your brother and friend, Jesus.

March 21st, 1920

I am here, Jesus.

Let me write tonight as you are in good condition. I desire very much to write you, in reference to a subject that is important for humans to know.

As I have before written you, there are two destinies for human in the Spirit Life. The one, or the other, of them may be just as they desire, and seeks for.

I was with you today as you listened to the preacher expound the reasons why he is a believer in the faith of the church to which he belongs, and in which he is a leader and teacher. He is undoubtedly honest and earnest in his beliefs. So far as they go, they will afford him the happiness that he spoke of, provided he puts such beliefs into actual, practical living, and makes them the dominating, dynamic influence that shall guide and control him in his intercourse with humanity. He said Truly, that there is a Law, that operates in wonderful power in shaping human's lives, which, when obeyed, will determine the career, not only of humans, but of nations. That Law is; that when once a Truth is ascertained, or comes to the knowledge of humans, it must be recognized, and acted upon, or it will lose its beneficent effect upon the lives of humans. If he applies this Law to his own Life, he will experience a wonderful help in meeting the difficulties and cares of Life, and in overcoming the things that beset him, as a thinking human.

This is a Wonderful Truth. So far as it pervades the Life of a human, will result in making that Life one of consistent goodness, and cause Harmony between that human, and God, who overrules the Secret Things of the Universe. That human will enjoy a Great Happiness, even while in the flesh.

This is not the important object and aim of what the preacher calls religion. Nor does it furnish the means, by which a human may come into a greater, and closer, Harmony with the Will of God. I know, that to human, this present Mortal Life seems a thing of the greatest importance, and that the chief aim of human should be to act in that manner, that will make their Life successful and happy. So far as it is suited to make human the Harmonious Creature that is intended, it is advisable to follow that course of living and Loving. The preacher does not know of, and cannot teach, the Great Object of human's appearance on Earth, and the goal that is ever before them, waiting to be reached, and possessed. As I have told you before, human's existence in the flesh, is only for the purpose of giving their soul an individualization. All other apparent objects are only secondary, as you may say accidental accompaniments of this process of individualization.

Hence, you will observe that this Great Object is accomplished equally, in the case of the infant who dies young, and in the case of the human who lives to a ripe old age. In each case, the object of the soul's incarnation (individualization) in the flesh is effected. The old human, of course, has their experience, a longer, and more diverse, existence in meeting and overcoming, or submitting to, the exigencies of their living, than does the infant. The Great Object is not more perfectly accomplished, in the one case, than in the other. The soul becomes individualized the moment it finds its lodgment in the receptacle prepared by the Laws of Nature, in using the human father and mother as its instruments. Time, thereafter, does not influence, or have any determining effect, upon that soul, so far as its individualization is concerned. Neither does Eternity. For that condition, being once fixed, never can be changed nor annihilated, so far as is known to the Highest Spirits of God's Heavens. Of course, the soul, as thus individualized, is subject to the various influences that surround it in its Mortal Life. These influences may be retarding, deadly, or destructive to the progress of the soul. But, cannot possibly affect the object obtained by that soul's coming into the flesh, or ever require a new individualization of that soul. Its Identity, and character, as an individualized thing, are established. No condition of the soul, as to its goodness, or badness, can ever in the slightest degree, affect this character, or Identity. The soul, once individualized, always remains the individual. Even though the elements that enter into, and make up, the form will always find itself being rebuilt, and continued by the operations of the Law, that preserves the individuality of that soul.

Then, I say, the object of the incarnation of the soul, is to give it an individualization. This in two appearances: First, in that of the physical form, which humans, by their perception of their natural organs of sense can perceive. Secondly, a form that is more sublimated, and generally invisible to these organs, a Spiritual form (spirit body).

At the moment of incarnation, the soul takes the form, which has been prepared for it by the forces that exist in the parents, and retains that form during the Natural Life. At the same moment, there is Created for it, or attracted to it, the form of the spirit body, which then, and ever afterwards, remains with it. Both of these bodies are of the material. One of the visible Material of the Universe. The other, of the invisible, but still of the Material.

As you know, that body, which is made of the visible material, lasts for a little while only, and then disappears forever. While that, which is of the invisible, and which is more Real and Substantial, than the former, and exists all the time of the existence of the visible, continues with the soul, after the disappearance of the invisible body, while changeable, in response to the progress of that soul. Yet the spirit body never, in its composite form, leaves that soul. This, we in the Spirit Life know to be True. Just as certainly as you mortals know the Truth of the existence of the physical body, and as you mortals may, in the short space of the Life on Earth, identify the human, which is really the soul, by the appearance of their physical body. So we, in the Spirit World, identify the same human, by the appearance of the Spirit Body. So this fact must be forever.

Then, such being the fact, it must be conceived that the soul has its existence in the physical body for an infinitesimal short time. That is; its Life on Earth is only the breath of a moment. Then it enters on its career through Eternity. After a few years, as you may say, it may cease to remember that it ever had a lodgment in the physical body.

The preacher criticized the religion that taught human to think of, and prepare for, the future of the soul, and emphasized the fact that their thoughts should be more of the present, and that duty and good works towards their fellow human should be the object of their living, and their religion.

Well, I recognize the importance of duty and good works, and approve of them with all the Knowledge that I now have of the demands and requirements of God's Love. On the other hand, must say, that their importance to human's future destiny, is also the importance of other privileges and obligations possessed by, and resting on, human, during the short time that the soul is clothed in the physical body. Duty performed, and good works, will lessen the distress and sufferings of the Mortal Life, and cause the human who performs the duty, and does the good works, to become more in Harmony with God's Laws of Mercy and Truth. But, will never suffice to bring a soul into Harmony with the Will of the Father, as regards the Higher Destiny of Human. These things will tend to lead merely to the Purification of the soul, and to cause it to come into accord with the Laws of its own Creation, and their end. These constitute merely the exercise of compliance with the Moral Laws, and bring only a Moral effect. When I say Moral Laws, I mean, those Laws that demand that, and by the observance of, which, human comes into the Condition of the Perfect Human, which was theirs at the time of their Creation. They, thereby, obtains nothing more than belonged to them when they Existed as the Perfect Human (First Parents), and was in complete Harmony with God as such Perfect Human. They, then, Loved God with all the capacity of their souls, in the exercise of the Natural Love that had been Bestowed upon them. Could have Loved their brother, as them self.

To this condition, humans are, to a more or less extent, now striving to attain. Many Precepts of the Old Testament, as well as of the New, will lead humans to thus obtain. If this, were the only destiny of human, then the religion of the preacher, which he says is based on these Moral Precepts of Love to God, and Love to their fellow human, would be sufficient to obtain the goal sought. Love, duty, and service, would be all that are required of humans, while on Earth, as well as after they become spirits. The exercise of these Graces by humans while on Earth would be just as necessary and helpful, as would their exercise afterwards in the Spirit World. These things of Love to God, and Love to human, service and sacrifice, constitute the True Religion that leads to the Perfect Human, and makes for that Harmony with the Laws of God, governing the Condition of the Perfect Human, but not the Divine (Angel) Human.

These things should be preached by all ministers and teachers, and practiced by humans everywhere, for in their practice are Happiness and Bliss unspeakable. As these things work to a finality, human again becomes the Son of God, and obedient to His Laws, and Realizes the meaning of "Love God, and Love your brother". So I repeat, the preacher, in pronouncing the basis of his religion, declared the Truths, that will lead him into the Condition of the Perfect Human, in Harmony with God's Will, as to Human's Creation.

Well, I see you are tired. So, we will postpone the further writing. I am very much pleased that you are in so much better condition. I hope that we may continue our messages without further interruption. Only pray more. Believe that the Father will answer your prayers. So believe that I Love you, and want you to be happy and free from care.

Goodnight, your brother and friend, Jesus.

March 21st, 1920

Let me write just a line, as I merely desire to say that I have listened to what the Master has written. I can testify that the Love to God, and Love to our fellow human, are not all that human needs for a basis of their religion. I was, when on Earth, a minister. I taught the same doctrines that the preacher of the day taught. Believed that they were all that human needed, and died in that belief. Alas, I discovered, after many years of darkness, and of happiness in my Natural Love that they would not furnish a basis for my progress to the Celestial Heavens, to the Condition of the Soul Transformed by the Divine Love. I merely wanted to say this. If agreeable to you, I should like to come some time and detail more at length, my experience in learning the basis of the True Religion.

I will say goodnight.

Your brother in Christ, Dr. C____.

I am here, Mary.

Let me write, as I am very anxious to say a word to my beloved. I listened to his mother, as she wrote on the photographs. I felt, that while what she said was True, and must be believed, yet I could not feel satisfied until I could write him of the happiness that I have in the knowledge that he has a picture of me, though not a satisfactory one, so far as I am concerned. Yet, he has one. I will not now have to depend entirely upon his imagination to conceive what his soulmate may look like! If I could only have appeared to him as I really am, or to an extent, at least, that he could see without any inconvenience, I would feel so much happier and the more satisfied.

I love him so much that I could not restrain myself from writing. I asked Helen to impress you to take the pencil in hand, and give me the opportunity. As she is in such rapport with you, I knew that she could succeed in causing you to do as I wished. I am very grateful. I can only repay you by throwing around you my best influence, and helping you whenever possible.

Oh, the wonder of it all! How thankful I am to the Father that one little insignificant spirit such as I am, viewing all the hosts of spirits by whom we are surrounded, can enjoy such a blessing! Tell him that he must try to appreciate our privilege also, for it is the cause of a happiness that very few, comparatively, possess.

I am now in the Celestial Spheres, Higher than he can imagine. Yet I have these pleasures of Joy and Bliss, to come to him, and tell him of my Love, and enjoy his presence. What a wonderful thing the soulmate Love is! How it makes a spirit who possesses the Divine Love, happier in that it has a Knowledge that this soulmate Love of ours, is not inconsistent with the Father's Divine Love, and is the object of the approbation of the Real, True Father. So you see, He is not a jealous God, as so many believe, but is anxious that All His Children shall Love, and enjoy those things that He has Provided for them. The least of which is not the soulmate Love.

You have been very kind. I will not write more now. Only to say how much I Love him, and want him to be happy. Helen is here, says she will write you, tell you of her Love, and the things that await you when you come to the Spirit World.

Your sister in Christ, Mary Kennedy.

May 2nd, 1920

I am here, Jesus.

Let me write, for I am anxious to tell you that you are in a much better condition than you have been for a long time. Your thoughts of today, and especially of tonight, have put you in a Spiritual Condition. If you continue in these thoughts, and longings (for the Divine Love), you will soon enable us to make the rapport, by which, we can continue our messages with greater frequency, and with exact expression of what we desire to convey.

I have been with you a great deal today. I have tried to exercise upon your soul and mind an influence, that will cause you to more fully realize the responsibility that rests upon you, and the importance of the work that you are to do. I was with you at church this morning. I saw the impression made upon your mind by the preacher, when he asked the question, "if any one had anything to offer that would show him that he had not grasped all of the Truth, as to the Spiritual Things, as he called them, that would cause humans to aspire for, and obtain, a Higher Course of Living". I also saw that you realized, that your work, if carried to its conclusions, would answer that question. So you must think of this question. Try, with all the powers that have been given you, to learn these Truths, so they can be made known, not only to the preachers of the so-called christian churches, but to All Humankind. You already have Truths enough to show this minister that he is not preaching the True Christian Spirituality that I came to the World to teach, and did teach. That he must not rest satisfied with his Knowledge of Spiritual Things, but must seek for more Light and Truth. Then, make them a part of his own possessions, and teach them to the World of humans. Especially those to whom he has the opportunity of ministering.

I am much pleased that you are in so much better condition of soul. I want you to persist in your efforts to obtain more of the Divine Love of the Father. Then, you will be able to bring True Enlightenment, to the unthinking and unknowing World, of the Truths, that are so Vital to their Salvation.

I was also with you tonight. I saw the impression made on you by the preacher, when he set forth Samuel, as he then was, as an example to be followed by the True Seekers after the important things that lead to Spiritual Regeneration and Perfect Humanhood, and was glad that you could appreciate how far the character of Samuel fell short of what is necessary to make a human the Divine Angel, or even the Perfect Human. The preacher does not experience the Truth of the Divine Love in his soul. In fact, has not even an intellectual knowledge of its existence and operations. He believes that I am God. That my blood washes away the sins of all humans who believe in me. Thus thinking, he is satisfied to rest upon the promise of the Gospels, which he accepts as the true teachings of me. Samuel is now here, was with you at the church, and realized how devoid he was, at the time spoken of by the preacher, of that thing, which was necessary to his Salvation. That his demand upon the people to behold him, and then bring any charge of unrighteousness that they could against him and his conduct as a servant and prophet of Jehovah. This is a very pretty story. To a certain extent, contains in it a teaching of the Moral Laws that works for good. It is not more important than many other things contained in the Old Testament. Samuel will come some time and write you of his Life on Earth, his ministry, as a servant of Jehovah.

Well my dear brother, I will not write more tonight. I will soon come and write an important message, which I know will not only benefit, but interest you.

Well, I will write on the subject that you suggest. This is an important thing for humans to know, as so many think they are doing God's Will, in their various courses of living, and in their various forms of worship. His Will, is one that corresponds with all the Laws, that affect human in every way. Humans must know what His Will is.

I will come soon and write on this subject. I hope that you may be successful in receiving my message, as I intend to deliver it.

With my Love and blessing, and the assurance that I will be with you in all times of need, and try to direct you in your thoughts, I will say goodnight.

Your friend and brother, Jesus.

May 2nd, 1920

I am here, your own true and loving Helen.

Well, dear, I am so happy that you are in such good condition to receive the messages. That you have again, Realized the Presence of the Divine Love in your soul. Have turned your longings and desires to the Father for an increase of His Divine Love.

I cannot tell you how solicitous I have been for you. I have prayed the Father that He would pour out His Holy Spirit upon you, and call you again, to the work that you must do. How different you are when in the Condition of Divine Love, from what you are when indifferent, cold, and shut in, as it were, to your thoughts of the material. If you could only fully appreciate what it all means to be in this condition of indifference, you would try with all the powers of your soul and mind to never let the condition come over you. There is nothing, in All the Universe that can possibly compensate for the loss of this feeling of the possession of the active Divine Love in your soul. You must realize it.

I am so glad that the Master wrote you as He did. I hope that you will remember what he said, and become in Unison with him, and the work that he has given you to do. Be True to him, and to yourself. You will arrive at the state of will that will make and keep you very happy while on Earth, and give you the certainty of a home in the Celestial Heavens.

Well, dear, you have written enough for tonight. I must stop. Believe that I Love you with all my soul, and want you to be very happy. Many spirits are anxious to write.

So, goodnight.

Your own True and Loving Helen.

May 10th, 1920

I am here, Jesus.

Let me write for a short time upon a subject that will be of interest to you, and to those who may read my messages.

What I desire to write upon tonight is: The condition of those who think they have received the inflowing, or Baptism, of the Holy Spirit, when the fact is, that they have received only that advancement in the Purification of their Natural Love, and a Harmony with the Laws of their Creation, that causes them to believe that what they experience, must be the result of a Bestowal of the Divine Love, which the Holy Spirit brings to mortals. In this mistake, so many humans indulge. In the satisfaction, or rather happiness, which their experience, growing out of such an increase in the Harmony brings to them, they fully believe that the Holy Spirit has taken possession of their souls, and caused the happiness. In thus concluding, they are deceiving themselves. Will realize their mistake, when they come to an Awakening in the Spirit Life.

The Holy Spirit is that part of God's Spirit that manifests His Presence and Care, in conveying to human's souls, His Divine Love. This Divine Love is the Highest, Greatest, and Most Holy, of His Possessions. It can be conveyed to humans, only by the Holy Spirit. This appellation is used. in contradistinction to the mere spirit which demonstrates to humans the Operation of God's Soul, in other directions, and for other purposes. His Creative Spirit, His Caring Spirit, and The Spirit that makes effective His Laws and Designs, in the Governing of the Universe, are not the Holy Spirit. Though equally part of God's Soul. Equally necessary for the Manifestations of His Powers, and the exercise of the Energies of His Soul. These deal with the Things of the Universe that do not have interrelationship with the Soul of God, and the souls of humans. Whenever the Holy Spirit is spoken of, it should mean, only, that part of God's Spirit, which Transforms the souls of humans, into the Spiritual Substance of the Soul of God, in its Quality of Divine Love.

I heard the preacher discourse Sunday night, on the work of the Holy Spirit, as portrayed in the contents of the New Testament. I saw that his conclusions, from these contents, were wholly erroneous, and apart from the Truth. As he said, the effects of the Workings of the Holy Spirit are shown, in more ways than one. Not everyone, upon whom It is Bestowed, is filled with the same powers of displaying its Presence and Possession. Now, in all these Evidences of its Existence, in the experiences given, it must be understood, that it is limited in its Operations, to those Conditions and Manifestations that have their source in the Divine Love of the Father, that was Bestowed upon humankind, at my coming in the flesh. That those Evidences of the Existence, that have no relationship to this Divine Love, are not evidences of the Presence of the Holy Spirit. As mentioned in the New Testament, when it was Bestowed upon my disciples at Pentecost, it came as with the sound of a mighty rushing wind, which has before been explained to you, that shook the room in which the disciples were assembled. Filled them, with its Powers, which means only, that this Divine Love came into their souls in such abundance, that they were shaken in their souls, to such an extent, that they thought the building in which they were assembled, was disturbed. In this, they were mistaken. The effect of the Presence of the Holy Spirit is not to affect the things of inanimate nature. It is confined to the souls of humans.

The preacher must know that because humans are possessed with powers to accomplish the mental, or material, things of their living, they are not necessarily possessed with the Holy Spirit. Much of the physical healing of mortals is caused by powers that are Bestowed upon humans, or some humans, that are not connected with, or proceed from, the Holy Spirit. That there is evidence of this, humans will recollect, that the Old Testament is full of instances where humans were healed of their diseases, and other Wonderful Things performed, at the time that the Holy Spirit was excluded from human's possession (prior to the coming of Jesus). Yet, these marvels, as then considered, were performed by humans claiming to be endowed with the Spirit of God, which is working for the Good and Happiness of Humankind, which will continue to Work, until humans shall become in Harmony with themselves, as First Created (the Perfect Human).

I understand the object of the preacher, in attempting to show and convince his hearers, that because they have not those powers, that the Bible describes, as having been possessed by my disciples, after the Bestowal of the Holy Spirit, that therefore, they must not believe, and conclude, that they, his hearers, have not this Blessing. His intentions and efforts were commendable. Arose from the desire that his hearers should not become disheartened and disappointed in their efforts to obtain the inflowing of the Divine Love that the Holy Spirit brings to humans. On the other hand, his teachings were dangerous, and misleading, to these hearers. The natural consequence of such teaching is to lead humans into the belief, or persuasion, that they possess this Power and Comforter, when they do not. Thus, prevent them from seeking for, and obtaining, this Comforter, in The Only Way in which it can be obtained. The Holy Spirit, primarily, has nothing to do with great mental, or physical, achievements. To say that because a human is a great inventor, philosopher, or surgeon, who does things without knowing where the inspiration, or suggestion, to do the things comes from, therefore he is possessed of the Holy Spirit, is all wrong and misleading.

All things, mediately, or immediately, have their Existence, Operation, and Growth, in the Spirit of God. And only in that Spirit. Which Spirit, is evidenced in many, and varied, ways in human's experience. Hence, humans say, that they live, move, and have their being in God, meaning only that they live, move, and have their being in God's Spirit. This Spirit of God is the Source of Life, Light, Health, and numerous other Blessings that humans possess and enjoy. The sinner, as well as the saint. The poor human, as well as the rich. The ignorant, as well as the enlightened and educated. Are each, and all, dependent on this Spirit of God, for their being and comfort. This is the Spirit that all humans possess to a greater or lesser degree. The brilliant preacher, teacher, or orator, possessing this Spirit to a greater degree than their less favored brother, depends upon the same Spirit of God. It is Universal in its Existence and Workings. Is Omnipresent! May be acquired by all humans, in this sense, to the degree that their mental receptivity permits. This further demonstrates the fact that God, through, and by, this Spirit, is with humans Always! In the lowest hells, as well as in the Highest Heavens of the Perfect Human. It is Working, continuously, ceaselessly, and Always at the call of humans, be that call, mental, or Spiritual. It is the thing that controls the Universe, of which, human's Earth is an infinitesimal part. This is the Spirit of God.

But the Holy Spirit, while a part of the Spirit of God, yet is as distinctive, as is the soul of human, distinctive from all other Creations of God. It is; that part of God's Spirit that has to do with the Relationship of God's Soul, and human's soul, exclusively.

The subject of Its operation is the Divine Love of the Father's Great Soul. The Object of Its Workings is the soul of human. The Great Goal to be reached by Its Operations, is the Transforming of the soul of human into the Divine Substance of the Father's Divine Love, with Immortality as a necessary accompaniment. This is the Great Miracle of the Universe! So High, Sacred, and Merciful is the Transformation, that we call that part of God's Spirit, that so Works, the Holy Spirit.

So let not teachers, or preachers, teach, or their hearers believe, that every part of God's Spirit that operates upon the heart's, thoughts, and feelings of human, is the Holy Spirit. For it is not True. Its Mission is the Salvation of Humans, in the sense of bringing them into that Harmony with God, that the very souls of humans will become a part in Spiritual Substance, and not in image merely, of the Soul of God. Without this Working of the Holy Spirit, humans cannot become in such Union.

I have written you before as to how this Holy Spirit works. The Way in which it can bring humans the Divine Love of the Father, and what is necessary for Its inflowing. The Way described, is The Only Way! Humans must not believe, and rest, in the security of such belief, that every working of the Spirit of God is the Working of the Holy Spirit.

"Except a human be born again (of the Holy Spirit), they cannot enter into the Celestial Kingdom of God". Such attainment is possible, only by the Workings of the Holy Spirit.

Oh, preacher, upon whom a great responsibility rests, learn the Truth. Then, lead humans into The Way of Salvation.

I will not write more now. I will come again, and deliver another message.

Believe that I Love you.

I am, your friend and brother (in the Christ Spirit of Divine Love of the Father), Jesus.

May 25th, 1920

I am here, Nita.

I am so glad that I can write to you again. It has been a long time since you let me write. I have been so anxious to tell you of my progress and Love. Why, Daddy, I thought that you Loved me so much that you would not keep me waiting so long to tell you of my Love, and how happy I am. Mother told me that you were not in condition to receive my message. That I must wait until conditions are different. I understand, but thought it strange that anything should interfere, to prevent me from writing to my Daddy.

Now, I want to tell you of my progress. How the Divine Love of the Father has changed my soul, so that now I am in a Sphere, from where I may soon expect to go into the Celestial Heavens, where mother is.

When I first came to Spirit Life, as you know, mother met me, took me in her arms, and was so Loving and tender with me, that I had no fear, because of the change in my condition. With her were other beautiful and Loving spirits, who gave me their Love, and assured me that now I would soon find a home that was so different from my home on Earth, and would experience a happiness that I had never before felt. I was not afraid, and did not want to go with my body again, as I was told so many newly arrived spirits desire to do, when they first come over.

I was satisfied from the first. How could I not help being so, when I had such a beautiful mother to enfold me in her arms and assure me that never more would I have to undergo the cares and disappointments of an Earth Life? How glorious this was! How I thought that if Heaven should have all spirits as lovely and grand as was here, what a happy place it must be. Mother was with me for quite a while. Also Grandmother Padgett, who was also beautiful and bright. Who told me that I had nothing to fear, but to believe that I was in the Truly Spirit World, when later, I should find everything to make me happy and contended.

How badly I felt when the parting came. For you must know, that this parting was necessary. Mother lived in a Higher Sphere, to which I could not go. She could not remain with me all the time, as I wanted her to do. She told me that she would be with me quite often, to comfort and Love me, that under the Law, I would have to go to the place that my soul fitted me for. From thence, I would have to pray and work for my own progress. That she could not determine for me where I should live, and that only my own souls condition must fix my place. So, as I say, we had to part.

I soon found myself in some darkness and suffering. I did not quite understand why this should be so, or what was the cause of my darkness. After a little while, I found that my recollection of my Earth Life came to me in wonderful clearness, and that my conscience was causing me some suffering. I was awfully lonesome, and wanted my mother so much. I found out that I had to bear my own burdens, and obey the Laws that fixed my condition.

I know you would want to be with me, if you could, to comfort, Love me, and protect me from my sufferings. But this was impossible, for this Law that I speak of knows neither Mercy or forgiveness, until it is satisfied. It is stern, unrelenting, and from the very necessity of things, must be so. Because only through its workings can a soul be made purer, and enabled to progress from its first condition. Thanks to my dear mother, I had with me the hope that such condition was only for a moment, and that soon the Divine Love would come to me, and take me out of the Workings of the Law, set me free, and enable me to get into Light and more happiness. Oh! How I prayed, and prayed, for this Divine Love, and tried to believe that it would come to me, and displace the darkness, and the recollections of the evil things, that I had done and thought when on Earth. Mother and grandmother prayed with me. Encouraged me with their sympathy, Love, and the assurance that this Divine Love would come to me, and that the Father would answer my prayers.

While in this condition, on one occasion, when I had been praying with all my soul, when my Faith seemed stronger, there came to me a Beautiful Spirit, all Tender and Loving and said, "My daughter, the Father will hear your prayers and soul longings, and call you to Higher Service, Brighter surroundings, and Greater Happiness. For I know that He never fails to answer the prayer of an earnest soul. Besides you are the Very Child of His Love and Care. Nothing pleases Him so much, as when His Children call on Him for His Divine Love and Help. I am praying for you also. My Faith makes it certain that you will soon receive the answer. Only let your very soul breathe out its longings for His Divine Love".

Oh! how Beautiful and Grand he was. How Tender his Love, which seemed to flood all my surroundings, and to give me such hope and encouragement that I felt that I surely must be a little weary in brain while he was talking. He then told me, that he was Jesus, and was so glad that I had come to the Spirit World, with so much love surrounding me. Also told me how he Loved me, sympathized with me, and wanted me to get out of my darkness and into the Light. I cannot express to you how I felt as he talked to me. How I wondered if he were not really God. He could not be God, for he was so human, humble, and seemed to think that he was a mere Child of the Father of whom he spoke. When leaving me, he said, that he would come again, and talk to me of The Father, and His Divine Love, and blessed me and said: "You are a Child of our Father, and just as dear to Him as I am. He Loves you, just as much as He does me. Believe in His Great Love. You will be happy."

Well, daddy, you can imagine what my feelings were? And how much I was helped. I will not stop to tell you now of how this Divine Love came into my soul, little by little, until at last it seemed to fill my whole being. Oh, how happy I became. How beautiful my surroundings appeared. What beautiful bright spirits I found myself in an association with. I was satisfied. My home became to me, the most glorious and happiest place imaginable.

This was only the Second Sphere, of which I have written. Even that Sphere surpasses all conception of human, and would satisfy the most hopeful and extravagant human as their "House of Bliss". I continued to progress. More and more of the Divine Love came into my soul. Strange as it may seem to you, as I rose higher and higher, grandmother was with me so very much, and became more beautiful and glorious than ever before.

I understand now why that was. As she came to me, in the different Spheres, as I rose higher, she approached nearer her home, took in more of the beauty and glory that are really hers, in her Sphere of living.

I have written enough for tonight. Besides you are tired.

Now, I am happy beyond expression. Love you, with a greater Love than I ever had on Earth. Know what Love really is. One of the happiest things that I now have before me, is to wait until you come, and meet you with all my Love and Goodness.

Oh, Daddy, won't it be glorious when you come over, and we can all be together in Divine Love. You thought that you had a beautiful Helen on Earth, but when you come to us, and see her in her glory, your very eyes will be dazzled at her appearance.

We are with you a great deal, Loving you, and trying to help you. You must believe that we will never leave you, till you reach the Heaven where we now are. Not then, if you want us with you. So Daddy, believe that I am your Little Nita, and that I write you, and Love you, with all my heart and soul.

Your Nita.

May 25th, 1920

I am here, your own true and loving Helen.

I am so glad that Nita had the opportunity to write you, as to her progress and happiness. I am so glad that she could do so. It makes her feel better to know that now somebody knows just what her condition is, and how happy she is. She is a beautiful spirit. Is progressing all the time. Very soon now, she will be in the Celestial Sphere, where everything is Divine, and Beautiful. She is hugging me now. Says that she is so happy. I feel the influence of Joy.

Well dear as you have written a great deal tonight, I will not write more. Love, and believe that we Love you, and are with you very much. I will close, and say goodnight.

Your own True Loving Helen.

June 2nd, 1920

I am here, Jesus.

Let me write tonight on a subject that is of importance to humankind, and should be fully explained that they may know the Truth, that will show them The Way to Immortality and Light.

I know that humans have debated, all down the centuries, the question of human's immortality. Have attempted to prove the reality of its existence, by various arguments, and by reference to the analogy of the Workings of God's Universe in the fulfillment of His Designs as displayed by the various Creations of animate Nature. In all these discussions, they have not succeeded in definitely, and satisfactorily, establishing the fact of immortality. Why? Because they have not, in the first place, understood what Immortality means. Without a correct conception of that, which it is desired to prove, it becomes very difficult to successfully prove the existence of the thing sought for. I know that at times, some idea of what immortality is has been conceived of. Almost understood, by some of the writers on the subject. Their efforts have been directed to show, that by human's Inner Consciousness, as well as by the appearance of those things in Nature, which die, and live again, human is justified in inferring that human, them self, is immortal, or was intended by their Creator to be immortal.

But the Inner Consciousness of human, meaning the knowledge of the possession of certain desires and aspirations, as well as the Realization that their Life on Earth is too short to enable them to accomplish those things that their efforts and strivings attempt, and that what they really accomplish, in the way of their own mental and Moral Development, if they end with the physical death of humans, would mean only a useless exercise of the faculties and powers given them by God, is not sufficient to prove the immortality of the Real Human. Neither, is it evidence of the uselessness of Human's Creation. Though, they are, in one moment, deprived of all the learning, and other benefits of a developed intellect, as well as of Moral Progression.

There is a difference between the state and condition of a human soul that continues in the Spirit World, the Life that it had when embodied in the flesh. The state, that not only continues this Life, but makes the extinction of this Life, an utter impossibility, even by God, who in the beginning of human's existence, Created that soul.

True Immortality then, is the state, or condition, of the soul that has Knowledge that because of the Essence and qualities of itself, it cannot ever cease to live. The impossibility of it ever ceasing to live, being Known to it, and a fact.

It has been said; that whatever has a beginning, may have an ending. That, which was Created, may be dissolved into its elements. The possibility of this is True. No human, or spirit, can deny the Truth of the assertion. In your Earth Life, you find that all things have an ending. That is, in their individual and composite form. In the Spirit World, why may not the same fate attend Created Things. The fact that there are things in the Spirit World that exist, as a continuation of things of Earth, does not mean that they shall endure forever.

The mere change caused by the death and disappearance from the vision of humans of things that were once alive, does not establish the fact, that as they continue to live in the Spirit World, they must live forever. Death, which is looked upon as a destroying angel, is merely the result of the change from that, which is visible, to the invisible. Does not, in any way, determine the Everlasting Existence of the thing changed.

The soul of human, while in the flesh, is the same soul, as to its identity and individuality, as it is when it becomes an inhabitant of the Spirit World. If it is immortal while in the Spirit World, it is also immortal while in the body. If it may cease to have an immortal existence in the one state, it may in the other.

Suppose that humans, by their arguments of the nature mentioned, show that the soul of human does not die when the physical body dies, but that it continues its existence in the Spirit World as the identical, personal soul. Then I ask, does that prove immortality, as I have defined it? Death of the body, and the Continuing Life of the soul thereafter, do not work any change in the qualities, or essence, of that soul. It is still the same Created Soul that it was in the beginning. Why may it not be True, that being a thing Created, it may have an ending? This is logical, and not unreasonable.

Then I say, even if humans, by their arguments, prove to the satisfaction of many that the soul, after the death of the physical body, continues to live in the Spirit World, with all its faculties and powers in active operation. They do not prove, nor do all the facts possible for them to discover, and marshal, prove that, that soul is immortal. The soul of human did not always exist. It is not Eternal, self existing, or independent, of everything else. But dependent upon the Will of God, that called it into existence. Why is it not reasonable to infer, that in the long period of time to come, it will have served the purpose of its Creation, and be disseminated into the elements, of which it was Created?

I will say here, for the benefit of those mortals who believe in the immortality of the soul, that from the time of the Creation of the First Humans, to the present, no spirit in the Spirit World has any knowledge of any human soul that has ceased its existence, and been dissolved into its elements. Further, that there are myriads of souls in the Spirit World, that are in just the Condition of Perfection that was the Condition of the soul of the First Humans, when Created, and God pronounced His Creation, "Very Good". As mortals have no assurance, that at some time the Life of their soul will not end, so also, spirits who have gained the Perfect Condition of their Creation, have no such assurance. They have hope, and belief, that such may be their destiny. Also, a knowledge that their progress, as the Perfect Human, has ended. They are in that state, which limits their progress, as the Perfect Human (spirit). Although, their enjoyment, as such, is not limited. To them, in God's Universe, there is always something new, and unknown, appearing. Yet, they have not the knowledge that they are immortal. Realize that they are dependent upon the Will of God for their Existence. To many of these spirits, immortality is as much a subject of concern, and speculation, as it is to the mortals of Earth.

Humans, in their meditation, study, and arguments, of this question of immortality, do not start from the foundation of the subject. They have no Truthful premises, from which they can draw a correct conclusion. Consequently, their arguments fail. They reason; that because of the existence of certain things in, and outside, of human, all things of mere Creation, that tend to show God's Intentions and Plans, as regards human, therefore, in order to carry out such Intentions, human must be immortal. They do not consider, or they lose sight of the fact, that all these things, that they use as the foundation for their conclusions, are things dependent, and not self existing, and at one time, or another, the Objects of God's Creation. What God has called into Existence, He can also declare, shall exist no longer. Knowing this, human cannot, or spirit either, rightfully conclude that the soul is immortal.

There is a way, in which the Immortality of the soul, or some souls, can be proved. Which, assuming the facts that enter into the argument to be True, necessarily establish the conclusion, without possibility of refutation. Then in commencing the argument, what is the only reasonable way to approach the subject?

First, to discover, and establish, that, which is Immortal. Next, to search for, and find, that, which though not immortal, yet by reason of certain operations and effects upon it, of that which is Immortal, becomes itself Immortal. Only from the Immortal, can Immortality be acquired.

Well this is a good place to stop, as you are tired. I am well pleased with the way in which you have received my message. Have Faith, and pray. All will be well.

Goodnight my dear brother, for you are, in Truth, my brother.

Your friend and brother, Jesus.

June 7th, 1920

I am here, Jesus.

Let me write a few lines, for it has been a long time since you have received any writing from me. I am desirous to write you.

You will remember when last I wrote that I told you that there are many messages yet to be delivered, and that you must get in condition to receive the same. I now repeat that statement with emphasis.

As you have been told many times, these Revelations can be made only through your mediumship, and unless you become fully convinced of this fact, and act accordingly, these Truths, that are so important to human, and that we are so anxious to have come to the Knowledge of the World, may not be made known. This, I know, may seem extravagant, and hardly possible. It is the Truth. You must believe it. I am as much interested in the work as ever, also, in the work that your two friends are now doing, as well as in that, which they shall do in the future. They also must realize this fact, and believe what I tell them. The work of Mr. Morgan is one that is very important, and causes the Salvation of many souls that are now, and have been, in darkness. He must understand that only he. can so successfully do the work. As has been written him, there are myriads of these spirits who attend him when he gives his talks. Many more who make the effort to get near enough to him to catch the import of his teachings, but cannot get within the circle, that desire the benefit of what he says. As his spirit friends have told him, his band, and others, find much difficulty in giving the necessary attention, to all those who have become interested in the Truth, because of what he says to them. He need not hesitate to do the work because of this feature of conditions. For sooner or later, they will all have the advantage of the instructions of spirits, whose mission it is to instruct in The Way of Life.

He is mistaken when he thinks, because of what some of his friends write, that he can start the Great Truths to be made known. Because, that is not his work. They must first be completed, and then they can be made known to the World. Then, this Great Work will commence and continue. No, upon you depends the necessity of receiving the Truths. No other can do this now. Until they shall have been received, our book must not be printed, or circulated. For the World must have All the Truth that it is now capable of receiving and assimilating. Just here, I want to say, that while the Great Vital Truth of the New Birth is already known to you, and can be made known to humans, yet, you, in your day, will not receive All the Truths of the Infinite. Always, new ones will come to the knowledge of humans. The Revelations of Truth will never have a Finality. No human, or spirit, can ever be able to say that their knowledge is complete. Progress is the One Law of the Universe that exists always. Human, when they get in condition, will always be the object and subject of that Law.

The messages that you have read tonight, state a fact, when they say that you are not in the condition of Soul Development that you have been, and are not in that rapport with the Higher Spirits that enables them to communicate (the Truths). You must arouse from this condition. Let your longings go out to the Father for His Divine Love, and your thoughts turn more to Spiritual Things. We are greatly delayed by this condition of yours. As a consequence, some of the spirits who are engaged and interested in this work become a little impatient, and communicate their thoughts, and encouragement, as they did in the messages to your friends. I will come soon, and resume my writing of the Higher Truths, if you are in the condition to receive them. Now think of what I have said. In thinking, realize the importance of your work.

I will not write more tonight. I will leave you with my Love and blessings.

Goodnight, your brother and friend, Jesus.

July 19th, 1920

I am here, Jesus.

Let me write a few lines. I see that you are in a better condition tonight, and feel that you would like to hear from me.

Well, my dear brother, you must know that always we are anxious and ready to write. It is only because your condition is such that we cannot form the rapport that enables us to come to you and give expression to our thoughts.

I have been with you this evening, as you and your friend (Dr. Leslie Stone) discussed Spiritual Things of the Future. I saw that a "new awakening" had taken place in your soul. I felt very glad that such was the fact. It is useless for us to attempt to communicate, when you are not in condition, for you would not understand just what we desire to convey, even if we could transmit our thoughts. In the mere physical act of writing, you must have a Soul Development, or opening up to the Truths, that are ours, which become yours, when you are attuned to receive them.

I will tell you of one fact that may be helpful to you both. That is, that many of your spirit friends are surrounding you, always ready to help you, and inform you of their Love. This is not said in the way of merely assuring you that you are very seldom alone, but of impressing on you, the fact, that only upon yourself depends the Love words of these spirits, in making known to you, consciously, that they are present, and have thoughts to convey that are worthwhile. Nothing frivolous, or immaterial, to your soul's growth. Always that, which will cause you to know that they are True, thinking, Loving friends.

Very soon now, I will come, and write again about the Great Vital Truths of the Father, that are necessary for human to grasp, and understand.

Keep up your Faith. Pray to the Father. Ask for a Bestowal of this Divine Love in increased abundance. You will be like the human, who while all adrift at sea, yet realizes that around them
are those things that will save them, and bring them safely to shore.

I will not write more now. Goodnight, and God Bless you both.

Your friend and brother, Jesus.

September 19th, 1920

I am here, Jesus.

Let me say a few words tonight, as I see that you were disappointed in the sermon that the preacher delivered tonight.

Well, you must not be so disappointed. Because he knows only that, which he could deduce from the teachings of the Bible. While what he said was True, yet it is not All of the Truth, but discussed only One of the Attributes of God. That is, the Loving Care that He has for, and exercises over, the Children of Earth. To most humans, this view of God is satisfactory. Gives them much comfort and assurance in the security that arises from the knowledge that there is such a Loving and Caring Father. To these humans, this assurance is of Wonderful Blessedness and Comfort. It is well that humans can have this conception of God, A Father, who is always solicitous for their Happiness and Welfare. To whom they can pray, in the Faith that He will hear and answer their prayers.

As we have written you before, the things that humans generally pray for, and expect to receive, in response thereto, are not the things that God, in His Own Personality, Bestows upon humans in answer to such prayers. His Great Gift is His Divine Love. These things of the material, or earthly in themselves, He leaves to His Ministering Spirits to bestow. Or, in other words, He delegates His Angels to so come into contact with, and influence, the souls of humans, that they may feel that their prayers have been answered, as they have.

The preacher's conception of God does not extend beyond these Attributes, that in themselves are sufficient to answer human's wants, and make them better and happier. I will come soon and write you of God's Attributes. I hope that you will get in condition, that I may make the necessary rapport.

It has been sometime since I have written you of these Higher Truths, that are so important to humans, and regret that such is the fact. Now that you have had your vacation, and feel that you are willing and anxious that our communications be resumed, I will try to assist you in getting in that condition of soul that will enable the messages to be written you. As you know, much depends upon yourself. You must try, with all the energies of your soul, to obtain a greater inflowing of the Father's Divine Love. Only from It, can come the condition that is necessary. Pray more. Think deeply of the Spiritual Truths that have already been written you. We will come together in closer communion and be able to give and receive the messages.

I am glad that you have thought more of these things during the past few days. I hope that your thoughts will continue, and that your longings will flow more to the Father. You cannot now appreciate the necessity for this condition. If you could, I know you would give all your thoughts, longings, and energy to the accomplishment of the work.

Well, I will not write more tonight. I will be with you, pray with you, and try to influence you in the efforts to perform the mission that has been given you. Have more Faith. Believe that you will succeed. You will not be disappointed.

Your brother and friend, Jesus.
