Washington D.C.
I am here [xxxx] Amos;
Amos the prophet.
I merely want to say that I have heard the message of the spirit
who wrote last and that it may be a true account of creation
and the fall of man but that I prefer the story in Genesis.
Of course I don't know that the latter is true but it reads
better to me and as I was taught to believe it when on earth I must
accept the other until I have good reasons to believe [otherwise].
I never saw him before but he is [a] very beautiful and
high spirit and lives in the celestial heavens as I do but
not in the same sphere I have never seen the first parents nor have
I heard where they may be - If that spirit has knowledge
of the past.
Well it is true that in we never owned this divine love
until after the coming [of] Jesus and of course the first parents
[possibly] could not have received much after Jesus came - and they
may not have progressed to the highest celestial spheres. I have
never seen them […] Well as to the apple of course, partly
that may be merely symbolical but the theory of the fall […]
-- whether Eve gave [it] to Adam or not I do not know. I
must not write more but I want to say that I am [a] follower of
Jesus and have that divine love.
I will now stop.
With all my love
I am yours in spirit
Amos
