Santa Cruz
Received by F.A.B.
Yes, it is I, (Joseph) and I bring you greetings
from the spirit world. Though
it is thousands of years since I lived on earth, I have retained
certain memories of it. In many ways I was able to accomplish my
mission on earth and bring to my family the joy that came from
knowing that our God was, and is, the true God.
My brothers humbly sought to undo the harm they caused me, and
remained devoted to me. I continued to interpret dreams - many
Egyptians came to me with their dreams, and I was able to discern
many things in their lives as a result.
I am happy that the memory of my life was preserved, for I knew
I had
done something unusual, though I did not realize at the time that
future generations would know of it as they have.
It was not hard for me to find my way, in the spirit world, to
the
New Birth of the soul, and that was because I loved the Truth, and
had a very strong desire to progress. I recognized Jesus'
significance even when he was a mortal. And there were other Old
Testament figures who did the same. We were impressed by the powerful
band of strong, high spirits that accompanied Jesus, and early on
realized that his mission was important for us to understand.
I did not think that just because I was in spirit so long, that
I
couldn't learn from a mortal, for I reasoned, and observed, that
some
mortals were more progressed than certain spirits who were in great
darkness. So I listened to Jesus' teachings and decided to apply
them.
I had had many wonderful moments on earth of communion with God,
and
so, when I tried the experiment, this encouraged the growth of
certain mystic tendencies, which increased as I continued to pray
for
the Love. I found that new feelings and insights came to me, and
I
recognized that this was because of the inflowing of the Love. My
life, both mortal and spirit, increasingly made more sense to me,
as
I could discern the Divine plan for my life.
As I was my family's leader on earth, so I encouraged them to follow
me in spirit. They had also been curious, but I was more advanced
and
had a deeper understanding of this reality.
Eventually, every single one of my brothers, and my sister, found
their way to the Celestial Heavens. My father Jacob also experienced
the New Birth. You will get a message from him soon.
