True Gospel Revealed Anew By Jesus. Volume 3

Judge Syrick tries impersonation to test Mr. Padgett’s soul perception.

January 18th, 1917.

Received by James Padgett.

Washington D.C.

 

I am here, Frank D. Syrick.

I am glad that you could feel the influence of the spirit sufficient to cause you to doubt the personality of the writer, for this spirit who wrote was not Ingersoll and he was permitted to write merely to test your ability or spiritual sense, as we have done before. The spirit who wrote was myself and I did not have with me my usual influence, but assumed that of someone else in order to make the test more complete.

Ingersoll is here and was really with you at the church services and so was I and I was interested in what the preacher said and what I wrote you as to the preacher being a medium and his difficulty of receiving (that) the communication from spirit is true. So you may believe that the message contained the truth as to his condition.

I do not feel like taking up more of your time tonight, but very soon I will come and write you as I have promised.

Tell the Doctor that I am glad to inform him that I am here, and also that I frequently come to him and enjoy his thoughts and experiences in the matters of the soul. I am still his friend and well wisher, even though he can’t see me or hear my voice, but I am in full sympathy with him in all his efforts to obtain more of the love and in helping mortals as well as spirits. So with my love to you both, I will say good night.

Your Friend,

Syrick.

 

Mediums commonly report that they know the energetic signature of those they channel frequently, but in this case Padgett had channeled a very large number of spirits by 1917, and had not channeled either Ingersoll or Syrick that frequently, so the point that he could tell it was not Ingersoll is remarkable.

This message is a composite of two, being published in Volume III on page 293 and Volume IV on page 256. For more details see this page.
