Received by F.A.B.
I am here, John Wilkes Booth [the assassin of Abraham Lincoln].
You are now channeling a spirit who realized soon enough
the terrible deed he committed. Yes, as soon as I entered
this world of spirits, I repented of my action in bringing
to a close a life that could have done so much more good
to my country. Yes, the realization was fast, for in this
world of nakedness, we can see with different eyes and a
different mind. And so, I knew what awaited me. And no pen
can describe the tortures that were mine.
But, as you so correctly guessed, I eventually escaped out
of my dark and unhappy condition. And it was the man I
killed who came to me with nothing but love and a desire
to help me, and who confided to me that his life had been
a great burden, which death had relieved. And when I
realized what type of person he really was, I could not
bear to face the awful reality. And yet I had to face it.
I see you are deeply moved by this. It is all truly
channeled. I know how much you have respected and loved
him, as have almost all your countrymen. But that love and
respect are completely valid and accurate. I did not
imagine that such goodness could exist.
You are thinking that this channeling is your own
thoughts, but it is not. You reason that fanaticism does
not yield to Truth so quickly. But after the deed was
done, I became a fugitive, hunted like a wild animal, and
wounded. In this vulnerable position, I gradually came to
feel differently about my life in general. And when the
summons came, I was in a very different frame of mind than
I was in planning the assassination and then committing
it. These sorts of unfortunate conditions can change a
man. Granted, this doesn't always happen. But it happened
to me. And I now see it as the work of God, who prepared
my soul for the great expiation that followed.
So see yourself with a true perspective. Give to things
their proper proportion. Go not down the path of
self-condemnation, but love yourself. And with that love,
have faith in a Creator who could forgive even one such as
I.
I see that this channeling has had a profound, beneficial
effect on you. That was my intention. I will let you now
digest the holiness of this message.
As a new year is about to begin, I say to you and the
whole world, let love and not hate be the reality of
Earth, is the prayer of your friend,
John Wilkes Booth
A message from Abraham Lincoln
