I am here, Jesus.
Do not doubt your channeling ability. You channeled the various
messages about war correctly. I know it's very hard for you to understand,
but it is a truth that those who engage in war are compensated based
on their motives.
The case of Abraham Lincoln perplexes you the most. You
know that war is not approved by God and the Celestial
Kingdom. President Lincoln was involved with the greatest
bloodbath America had yet seen, and he was the
Commander-in-Chief.
Well, the truth of the matter is that he did in fact
suffer somewhat. He did. But he also realized that he had
a Divine appointment to save his country. He knew this
consciously on Earth.
But, as your church colleague said, violence is never
justified in God's eyes. So how can Lincoln and George
Washington be heroes? Shouldn't they be condemned along
with all the warmongers of history?
Well, the truth is that President Washington did suffer
somewhat also. He had certain incidents on his conscience.
I know you feel that this channeling is being influenced by your
patriotism. You, like most Americans, revere these two leaders.
The more people have gotten to know them, the more they have had
cause for admiration and pride. You feel this channeling is "soft"
on these two American icons because you revere them as well.
And yet you are aware that General Washington had horses shot out
from under him, and he remain unharmed. And a soldier aimed a gun
at him at pointblank range, but did not fire. So you know from all
this that some sort of Divine protection was involved.
Now, you have the thought, did President Lincoln's
activity in the Civil War attract his assassination?
God considers the whole situation. Yes, war is wrong.
Killing is wrong. But those who participate in war do so
for all sorts of motives, which in turn affect the way
they are compensated. This has been the theme of your
channelings, that God looks at the heart.
There have been many, many people in history who have felt
that killing in war has been completely justified because
the motive was purely to create a better world. There was
the Resistance in World War II, for example. People felt
that the Nazis had to be opposed at all costs, and the
more Nazis killed, the better, for the sake of the cause.
I know all this is confusing for you. I will come again
and elaborate. But know that your mediumship has
progressed to the point that you are incapable of not
receiving our thoughts accurately. You have been
practicing and polishing it for ten years, and recently,
your soul has advanced, so the combination of much
practice and increased soul development has only sharpened
your channeling expertise.
