I am here, Jesus.
I wish to go into further detail concerning the message
of the Father's Love and its availability to all mankind through prayer
to Him for its inflow, and the reasons why the churches as they are constituted
today do not possess the message of the "glad tidings of immortality,"
as I preached it when I made my appearance on earth as the Messiah of
God.
Let me repeat that the Christian concept of a divine
trinity is merely a human fabrication and no man is baptized by the Holy
Spirit in the sense that it is taught by the churches.
The whole message of my ministry while I was on earth,
the glad tidings that the Father's Divine Love was available to the human
soul and that it is this Love that transforms the human soul into a divine
soul and thus enables mankind to achieve immortality, has been misconstrued
into a love that is human and subject to defilement. And the Will of the
Father, that man should be made one with Him in His Love, has not been
carried out and is not being taught by the churches. But I wish to declare
unto you with all the authority that I possess that God is not mocked,
and that His Will must and shall eventually prevail, and it shall be as
men, themselves, come to the Father for that Love and are thereby transformed
into His true children in free will and love, and in the soul understanding
of the Truths that these sermons and others to follow point the Way to
Him.
The Love, then, that is now the concern of the churches
which claim Christianity, is not that Divine Love which I came to make
known and available to the Jews and to all mankind, but is that love which
is human only and which was given to humankind with the implanting of
the human soul into the living being called man. That soul was created
in the image of God, and not His Essence, so that, regardless of what
the churches teach, the soul of man is not divine, and man cannot look
within himself to develop any so-called divine spark, for there is none.
But he may simply develop the human soul qualities that he already possesses,
and his human love for his fellowman and his human love for God, as Moses
had already taught.
It is for this reason that the churches, whether they
will it or not, have continued to regard the Ten Commandments as the moral
code by which Christians are to live by; for while they teach my shed
blood redeems the faithful of their sins, yet they realize that good church-goers
as well as all mankind continue to sin, and that this love that Jesus
supposedly has for them does not prevent them from sinning, and that it
is only by obedience to the Ten Commandments, with encouragement and exhortations
from the priests, and the threats of an everlasting hell of brimstone
and fire, that the faithful are able to make progress in their sincere
struggles against temptations and the wrongful indulgence of their material
desires.
In their prayer to God, therefore, they seek His Aid
that their souls be purified of sin, and indeed, God does aid the sincere
penitent by sending His ministers to strengthen the human will in those
persons who seek that aid; nevertheless, the problem for the Christian
faithful continues to be the problem of sin, and the efforts of the human
will to eliminate the sinful tendencies to which their souls are prone,
and also to ward off the new temptations with which their flesh is contending.
And as they sin, those that sincerely repent and turn in prayer to God
find that they are indeed relieved for, strange as it may appear, the
penitent soul is no longer the same soul that sinned, in that its condition
is different and is cleansed of that sin; but that cleansed condition
is subject to the temptations of the earth plane, and with but its human
will and desire not to sin because of sincere human love of me or, as
they think, God, and because of fear of what they think may be God's wrath
and purgatory, if not eternal hell, they attempt not to sin and may be
temporarily successful, but are dismayed to find that despite their beliefs
that theirs is the way to God, they sooner or later succumb to the evils
that cling fast to their souls, and they sin again, and this process continues
repeatedly and with little abatement in their lives; and the only consolation
which the sincere Christian may have is the feeling that he is gaining
to an extent in the constant warfare against sin, as his will continues
to be strengthened and his increased love for his Deity combine to lessen
to that extent his desires to sin.
And thus he finds that the grace, or his baptism by
the Holy Spirit, or Jesus' love and redeeming sacrifice of which he is
supposedly the recipient by virtue of his faith in Jesus' name, has not
purified him of sin, and thus had not really fulfilled the law, for he
must continue to live by God's laws in order not to sin. For he knows
that if the Commandments were given by God that he should not sin, then
Christ's supposed sacrifice was also made that he should not sin and the
Holy Spirit which he believes to be within him should have been the power
which protected him against the desires to sin and make him free of sin.
For Paul taught in Romans
II: 14 - 15 that Christians can do by nature the things contained
in the law, and this has not come to pass. And so the sincere churchman
finds that his grace, as the churches so preach it, has not fulfilled
the law, which he must continue to obey; and he must find his consolation
in the thought that, as he has been taught, Jesus' blood will cover his
sins. Yet if that is so, then Christianity degenerates into a religion
wherein mankind may continue to violate God's Laws, in that Jesus' blood
will cover the sins of those who believe in his name, and that God can
accept into His Holy house a soul laden with sin and evil merely because
of faith in that name.
Hence, Christians, and all mankind, must understand
that neither Jesus' nor anyone else's blood, has the power to wash away
the sins that each one has committed; and that a soul is purified only
to the extent that it is obedient unto the Laws of God. Christians must
also understand that the "grace" they have been taught is theirs
as a result of faith in God, or in Jesus as the so-called second person
of the trinity, is not the True Grace - the Father's Love - that comes
to man only by prayer to the Father for it, and that it is only a purification
of their own human love without that sure power to eliminate sin as does
the Divine Love which not merely purifies the human soul but transforms
it into a divine soul. And this is the reason why Christians, despite
their clinging to the so-called vicarious atonement, are so much concerned
with moral backsliding - sinning after they have been told they have won
salvation through belief in Jesus' name - and that is why the Catholics
have their "purgatory", the purification of the soul after the
material death, after they have been taught that Jesus' blood has redeemed
them from sin. And that is why as I have said, Christianity today is,
regardless of the preaching of the priests and pastors, merely a religion
identical with Judaism, placing its ultimate reliance upon the Ten Commandments
of Moses for human soul purification, without the power of the New Heart
which I came to bring to the Jews and to all mankind, and that is why
the churches do not know the message of immortality - through prayer to
the Father for His Love - as I preached it when on earth as the Messiah
of God.
With all my blessings, and those of the Father, I am
Jesus of the Bible
and
Master of the Celestial Heavens
