Received by H.R.
Cuenca, Ecuador.
Hello!
I was with you this morning when you started to gather together
all the messages you have received into one file.
[H.R.: In the morning, I began to convert all the messages
from Judas, Jesus, Matthew, and John Mark which I had received,
into the HTML format, in order to compile them into an HTML-help
file, which I intend to create for all the published Divine Love
messages.]
I am happy that you have decided to do this. It is a useful work,
not because those are my messages, but because any form in which
our messages are introduced to the public constitutes one more step
to reach out to people with the principal message of Love.
In this context, allow me to say some words on the impression that
has come up lately, that is that several web sites have entered
into "competition."
Actually, if there were not three or five or ten web sites on Divine
Love, but a hundred or a thousand, it would be even better. Even greater
would the probability that many people who surf the Internet
would find this information, and the volume and pressure of so many
sites on this topic would perhaps encourage them to really read
what is presented there. Many people are greatly influenced by the
opinion of others, and when seeing that there are so many people
who put forth the main idea in the most diverse of ways, they will
think that there is "really something" in all that, because
otherwise the idea would not find so much echo amongst others.
This is why I do not like the expression "competition."
Competition in what? What do you win? If this effort is useful for
leading more people towards the Divine Love path, then it is even
better. This is not what I call competition, but a dispersed effort
in the service of one and the same objective: To spread the principal
message of Love.
It is true that there is very little coordination in these efforts,
but there is will, and this is what counts. If you can achieve a
better presentation, a better coordination, with diverse focuses,
then we will all be happy from the bottom of our heart.
However, never forget that there is a world beyond the Internet.
This also offers a wide field of possibilities.
Remember the message where Jesus indicates that the messages could
also be presented in form of a science fiction novel. This is already
a broad hint that the words of the messages are not magic formulas,
they are only carriers of ideas and thoughts, and these can also
be transmitted in other ways, taking any liberty.
My dear H___, lately you are thinking of writing a book based on
the messages you receive. This is a good idea. It would constitute
a focus somewhat different from the Padgett messages. Each focus
is valuable, for the intellectuals, the romantics, the sci-fi addicts,
the mystics, whatever.
If you, for example, concentrate your book around the afterlife, integrating
what I have communicated, you will surely find a wide public, since
the problem of death and the afterlife is a topic which the entire world
is interested in.
Don't cling slavishly to the received text, but try to give it
more color, some tension, try to arouse interest.
I also find that it is a good idea to talk about your personal
experiences, how you found the Padgett messages, how you received
the Love of God, what you feel in these moments, your doubts and
questions, prayer and its effect, your quest in general.
People love to read books that not only give them information but
additionally also show in a practical way how they may live these
experiences themselves. There is no recipe book for obtaining Divine
Love or for developing mediumship, but there is some basic advice.
These several forms of message presentation are so important. We
would like to exercise our influence upon all humanity, to give
each one the information they need and can digest, but unfortunately,
this is not possible. It is the problem that I have already described
so often, the problem of tuning in.
Do you remember when you were for the first time in contact with
me? You don't know it, but you tuned in to everything except the
spiritual thing. Only now, in retrospect, you can determine that
much of what you have done, much to what you felt attracted to,
was due to our influence, to my influence in particular.
Do you remember when I, for the first time, tried to reveal myself
to you? Yes, it is true, and at that time you did not grasp it.
[H.R.: Years ago, when I already knew the Padgett messages,
and when I had received some of God’s Love, a certain fixed
idea began to take possession of my mind. I “saw" myself
in the beyond, newly arrived and disoriented. It was a hazy scene,
myself amongst other equally disoriented spirits, when suddenly
somebody came closer. It was a very luminous spirit, full of love
who sat down at my side and started to talk to me. He told me a
little about the spirit world, things that I did not understand
but that impressed me. However what impressed me most was this bright
being's love.
A short time later an even more luminous being approached
me, and presented himself as Jesus of Nazareth. And he told me that
his fellow spirit’s name was Judas Iscariot.]
Yes, this is correct. It was then that I tried to impress you with
more force and more insistence. However, for you, it was just a
fixed idea. We often meet this obstacle, that is to say, even when
people are capable of receiving and willing to receive our messages
they do not recognize them.
It is true; the work of publishing the message of Love is a combined
work. We depend on you, and we appreciate any effort in this direction.
Please, don't see yourselves as competitors in a limited market,
but as collaborators in an ocean of tasks, where each contribution
constitutes a relief and an advance, and where no effort is in vain,
although its benefits may not be obvious immediately.
Thank you for your time, dear brother. Have a
nice day.
Judas
