I had hoped to avoid public comment on this issue. Because, whatever
I say, it is obviously my personal opinion. However now that there
is so much speculation on the Internet, because AJ, as he is known,
is receiving a lot of publicity, I cannot really avoid some comment.
Particularly since this web site that I created, is considered by
many to be the most comprehensive of all the many Divine Love sites.
In December 2004, AJ posted for the very first time on the Divine
Love Message board, and explained that he was one of 14 who had
reincarnated (apostles plus soul mates), to teach the world of the
Padgett Messages before the heavens closed. I believe the date he
stated was 2012, but more recently I hear AJ has moved the date
out. There were a number of obvious objections to this claim:
- That the Padgett Messages deny reincarnation
is possible, and the most recent messages from Jesus on this
very subject was received March
10th, 1955 and again on January
10th 1990.
- AJ was born, as far as I know on 10th March 1963, after one
of these communications and before the other, indicating something
is strange, because "our" Jesus did not mention being
on earth at that time, particularly since he was stating reincarnation
is false.
- We have continued to receive communications from Jesus through
all this time, and he has been a regular visitor to the annual
retreats held by followers of the Padgett Messages.
- While the Padgett Messages support the notion that the Celestial
Heavens will close, communications have suggested (long before
AJ made this claim in 2004) that we do not need to worry about
this event. It is not imminent.
- We have never received any communications from any Celestial
to tell us that Jesus had returned, and we certainly would have
expected that well in advance of his arrival. We have been receiving
messages from Celestials including Jesus since 1914 (James Padgett
died in 1923), and there have been many different mediums over
this long period of time. Lots and lots of opportunity to hear
some really good news.
- We have received communications about AJ which are not supportive
of his claims but as of this time have not made them public, not
wishing to enter into a "message war".
I myself have a number of other objections, based on things I hold
to be true, which are not covered
in the Padgett Messages, so I will not touch on them here. A.J.
has his answers to these objections, namely that all messages received
from pretty much all celestials since the time of Padgett (1923)
have been imposters. However he does support the recent messages
received via Judas, (2001 to 2003) possibly because they do not
address the issue of reincarnation. However Judas had every opportunity
to suggest Jesus was on Earth, yet he never did so, the more so
since the bulk of Judas' communications were details
about the life of Jesus 2000 years ago. His messages concluded
in 2003. Added to which Judas himself told us the closing of the
Celestial Heavens is not imminent, in
2001.
Naturally we have asked for advice from the celestials we have
been in touch with all these years. The answer we get is that AJ
is not Jesus of Nazareth reincarnated. It would be fair to point
out that AJ has now a body of messages that his followers have received,
that support his claim. However it is also fair for us to point
out that the Mary Magdalene (Mary Luck) currently with AJ, is not
the first, nor the second, but the third Mary Magdalene he has chosen.
Of the balance of the 14 that he claimed had reincarnated with him,
only three that I am aware of still believe in AJ. Some of them
strangely never did. One is dead, murdered by a lover. In 2004,
when AJ first made the claim, the notion of 14 people (Jesus plus
six apostles plus their partners/soulmates) all in sync and teaching
that they are returned apostles plus the Master was a powerful argument.
Today it is hollow. Other than the current Mary, who is not even
the Mary that was "chosen" or "identified" by
AJ as his soulmate in 2004, none seem willing to stand and be counted
alongside AJ. And he has added some new "apostles" and
left off some he named in 2004, who one presumes, have not been
found?
You may be sure that I personally would like nothing better than
to be able to announce that AJ is who he says he is. Thus the burden
of proof is heavy. And I am satisfied that I have discerned the
truth. You will have to do the same.
You can argue that, provided AJ does not stray from what is contained
within the Padgett Messages, surely he is at least teaching the
Truth? And I would agree with you, that would be the case, if he
sticks to the content of the Padgett Messages. However it seems
that he teaches a number of concepts alien to the Padgett Messages.
If you choose to follow AJ, it would probably be best to test the
Truth of his teachings, rather than accept them because you believe
he is Jesus. Which, when you think about it, is how it was 2000
years ago. And, as best I have been able to determine, AJ is teaching
a significant number of variations on what is found in the Padgett
Messages. These are primarily in the area of the role of emotions
in blocking Divine Love, the function of the Law of Attraction,
soulmates and even the nature of divinity as it relates to a soul
that has been reborn of spirit, because he has a very significant
problem explaining why he is not perfect, since Jesus clearly was
2,000 years ago. The overall result is to present an outlook which
in my opinion is not consistent with the simple presentation of
the Padgett Messages, and may even be considered to be very divergent.
The issue of the emotions blocking the receipt of Divine Love is
curious, given that it was channeled in 1918 that
the Law of Compensation is subordinate to the Law of Divine Love,
meaning that any errors you have acquired in life, do not need to
be compensated for before you can receive Divine Love. Yet in effect
this is what AJ teaches.
One issue however deserves further comment. It is curious that
AJ's determination to focus on "Emotional Clearing" as
a technique to advance spiritually, has the direct effect of reducing
his focus on pure soul transformation through Divine Love - achieving
the New Birth. That is because one cannot focus on two things, and
he has chosen to direct his energies into a natural love path technique,
in a belief that this will assist the Divine Love soul progress.
Recent communication from celestials has confirmed this to be an
error. This is discussed in more
detail here. While progress in the development of natural love
is a wonderful thing, it in no way contributes to one's soul transformation
via Divine Love.
While I personally do not care too much what A.J. does or believes,
I think the real danger lies in the fact (to me at least) that the
basis of his fundamental teachings on Divine Love are both provable,
and largely unknown. This is the fact that each of us can physically
feel the Divine Love in our souls, if we make the right effort.
Because that can be experienced, a number of people are the more
inclined to therefore believe that A.J. is who he says he is, because
he was the one that told them about it. Notwithstanding the fact
that this has been known and in print
since 1941. But of course he also claims to have been the one
talking to James Padgett.
As I am based in NSW, Australia, any follower of AJ who would like
to talk about things on the phone, is most welcome to contact
me through the form, and I will be most happy to oblige. As
a result of recent feedback and my reviewing a recording of a very
recent seminar held in November 2011, I suspect that AJ may have
a Narcissistic
Personality Disorder. This means that he has created a false
front, and is projecting his problems on those around him. We should
pray for Mary Luck, and also trust that those attracted to him realise
what is going on. What we now see very clearly, that the direct
result of these seminars is to have people feel bad about themselves.
In fact AJ is fond of saying in effect that attendees are "depraved
and dark" or "overcloaked by dark spirits". This
line is absolutely in opposition to what Jesus said on December
2nd, 1916 in the most wonderful
of prayers ever given to us:
Our Father, who art in heaven, we recognize:
That Thou Art--art all holy and loving and merciful, and that
we are the children of Thy care and not the subservient, sinful
and depraved creatures that our false teachers would have us believe.
That we are the greatest of Thy creations and the most wonderful
of all Thy handiworks, and that we are the objects of Thy great
Soul's love and tenderest care.
This is very clear evidence he is a false teacher, because
he perpetuates the lie that we are sinful and depraved. If the result
of AJ's seminars is that you end up feeling bad about yourself,
there is an easy solution. Stop going. But do use the prayer referred
to above, as that will help. Again its curious that it seems AJ
does not make a habit of using this prayer during all his public
appearances, because we certainly do.
