1998 CDT Annual Meeting Trance Message from Jesus through Amada Reza
Medium prays aloud: Dear Heavenly Father, I pray at this time for an inflowing of Your Divine Love into my soul and I pray that this Love lift me off the earth plane that I may make rapport with the Celestial angels present here today who desire to help answer our spiritual questions. I pray for faith in the Power of Your Love to protect me and all those here from any influence that may wish to harm. And, with this faith, may I also know that Your Love has the power to transcend the limitations of my mind and my body. I ask that my mind be put aside and that my will be put aside to do Your Will, Heavenly Father, which I know is for all of us to become at-one with You, and that the answers that our Celestial brothers and sisters share today aid in our becoming at-one in Your Love. I love you, Heavenly Father. Jesus: I am here with you now, my dear brothers and sisters, and I welcome this opportunity to share my love with you today. I am your brother and friend, Jesus of the Bible, and I am Master of the Celestial Heavens, but I am also your co-worker in building a Kingdom of Love here on this earth. I am here to help and to serve your need and I am most happy to do so. And those in the Celestial Heavens who are here today are here to love you and surround you with that peace and comfort that can only come with Divine Love. I welcome your questions at this time. I want to thank you, Master, for the privilege of your coming here to us when you could be doing so many other things - what a privilege. It's nice to feel you again; as you know, I haven't felt worthy a lot, I miss you. At this time I think I would like to know what you feel I need to hear. Jesus: You must trust the Love in your soul, ----, to continue to guide you along a path of love and faith; you have not lost your way and you are indeed as worthy today as you were at any time of your life. For, as you know, God loves all of His children and you have, in turn, attempted to love His children. ----, I want you to remember that your desire to serve and to do the best you can is what will bring, by that Law of Attraction, the good influences of your Celestial guides and those in the spirit world who may help serve the work you do. You are a wonderful disciple, I thank you. I thank you very, very much. Good morning, Master. It's been a desire of mine for awhile to receive greater clarity on the function of mediumship in our church, as a general topic and the ways that we've used mediumship over the last 30 years starting with Dr. Samuels. I'm sure you can see my concerns and the concerns of all of us here regarding the proper use of mediumship and the potential for misuse of it. I wonder if you could address that questions for us? Jesus: I will start with the function today. I am using a medium today for the purpose of answering the questions of a group of people who wish to serve our Heavenly Father in building in this world an influence of Love that will help turn people away from the evil and the sin that has plagued mankind for so many years. When I was on earth, I was also surrounded by a host of heavenly angels that God had asked to help keep my mission clear and of a number one priority in my life. It devolves upon each one of you as representatives of this great and wonderful task to bring the Love of God into this world, to always consider the motive you may have in bringing the Truth forward. It is not for self-glorification, for you must know that humility is the touchstone for entrance into the Celestial Kingdom. What is humility? When you realize that the God of this universe Who is all powerful, All Knowing, loves you so dearly, Who cares for everything that disturbs you, and Who has created this universe in such a way that you will come into harmony with His wonderful plan. Can you not see how wonderful it is to be a channel for that Love? We are one soul among many, but it is the Soul of God that keeps us all in harmony and in love. Oh, my children, He loves so many people, He loves so many. He wants you to love, He wants you to love. Humility is a loving exchange between yourself and those you come into contact with; when you realize that one you come into contact with is beloved of God, that he and she is your brother and your sister. With such a motive, your mediumship can only serve the purpose of building this Kingdom of Love. As you know, it is not our place to demand or expect, but to only ask that you continue to pray for this Love to become a real part of your everyday life. There is no task you do that is not worthy of being done with love. The dirty dishes need to be cleaned and with such love you do them because this is serving your God; this is serving your brothers and sisters. Humility is very important, for it is what will keep us in tune with the Celestial Mind. The Laws of God will help bring harmony and will help bring the answer to the questions you may have. It is your responsibility to embrace one another with the most love and faith that you can. Start here, for this is your support group, as you will. Does this answer your question? Thank you, that was beautiful. Hello, Master. I just have a question about healing. Do you see a future work, a potential for me to be a healer of the sick? ... Before I die, will I have that work? Jesus: Well, ----, let me assure you healing has already occurred, perhaps in small, unspoken ways, unbeknownst to you, but as you pray for the Divine Love to become more and more evident in your daily living, this is a natural result of your developing soul. Healing is a gift that comes with the Divine Love and it is through manifesting your love for your brothers and your sisters who are in need that this healing actually can happen. The faith that you have in the Power of that Love to come through you from God and the angels to the one in need, and the faith on the part of the person receiving the healing is what will effectively bring about harmony of body, mind and soul. But it is happening already within you; it has happened already with many in this room on an ongoing and daily basis. And it is only a matter of time before those of you who are moved by your love to come together to serve in this capacity. It will happen before you die, I guarantee you. Top of the mornin' to ya! and I would ask what I can do to continue my healing? Jesus: Many times it is a struggle to keep our thoughts on spiritual things when we do all the necessary things on this planet that must be done to maintain our lives and the lives of others we care about. I only ask that you consider bringing into your consciousness more and more that those mundane things that may keep you separated from that spiritual life you so treasure, to see all of these things as an extension of your love. For again I say, there is nothing so mundane that it is not worth manifesting the highest love you have. In this way healing may be more constantly a part of your life and those you love and who love you in return. As you know, I healed on earth, but I had a gift; ... my Heavenly Father showered that Love and that Power through me to bring to this world. I want you to know that this gift is yours also, all of yours. As you seek to understand more and more the relationship of this Power to the mind and body and how you are a unified being, it will become more and more a possibility for you to heal those illnesses that you and others feel. Does this answer your question, ----? I will process it, thank you. Jesus, I accept that the Divine Love will be once again withdrawn in the future and that then the Celestial Heavens will be closed to those who have not received the Love. Can you confirm the truth of this and help me understand better how this will occur for individual souls as well as for humankind? At what point does God consider the soul closed to the Love so that It is withdrawn? Will there be collective circumstances at the point the Love will no longer be available to humankind? Is there a predetermination or circumstance by which God will use when this will occur? Also, how will souls who newly incarnate get as much chance as the rest of us? Jesus: If we look at history and the opportunity that Aman and Amon were given, it was very clear in their minds and in their souls what their relationship with God was, and what the Gift that He was offering meant, not in so far as what the potential fulfilled would actually mean to them, but that He was offering It as a Gift to them to become at-one with Him, to become closer and closer to the Substance of Himself. Where we are made in His image, we have the potential to become at-one with our Creator, they were very aware of this. They made that conscious decision not to accept the Gift because in their pride of the power and the beauty and the harmony that they possessed, and the beauty and harmony that surrounded them, they felt no need to go anywhere else but there. At such time that the Divine Love potential may be withdrawn for a second time, it will become universally known here what the Divine Love is. It is not to say that everyone is asked to consider this potential, for you'll understand that when a soul incarnates into a fetus, they are looking more for individualization and not so much to become at-one with their Creator. The choice is a free will choice, which makes this Divine Love a Gift - if it were ours by right it would not be a gift. But the time that God may so choose to withdraw this potential, again I say, it will be universally known; there will be a means by which most people here will have an understanding of that potential. This is not the case at this time, which is why you have this wonderful work to do. There is no time that I can put to this [withdrawal], for it is dependent largely upon the free wills of the souls that inhabit this planet and the souls that will come in great numbers. But I want you to understand that God loves his creations and He forgets not one, and if there were the circumstance that one soul did not have the opportunity to choose, that potential would be rebestowed. Does this answer your question? Thank you. Totally. I just want to thank you for being here with this congregation and for pampering us all so much, leading us by the hand so-to-speak in everything we do and protecting us all, as well, in so many ways. I don't really have a personal question that comes to mind at this time. I'd be happy to move on to the next unless there's something that you'd specifically like to say to me. Thank you for being here. Jesus: I love you, ----. And I thank you too for being here, for you lift the spirits of your brothers and your sisters. Master, first I want to thank you for that terrible situation I had help with for over the past couple weeks where I live. ... Recently my sister's best friend passed over and she has been exceptionally skeptical about our church and it just occurred to me that through you and ---- maybe you could give me a message for ----, something to tell her that might help me. I know I put up with an awful lot from those people, but you know how much you've helped my sister ----, my brother, ----, and me. I think what I'm trying to say is that I'd like to have that extended to my sister, ----. She's been real good to me, but you know what she thinks about this church. But, hey, thanks. I'm feeling better. Jesus: ----, as far as ---- in concerned, I want you to understand that regardless of what she may think of the church, she does love you as much as she can. I would ask at this time that you also love and honor her despite her beliefs and understand that these beliefs she have given her comfort her and give her a sense of hope. As you know, her faith teaches her that God cares for His own, and her friend who has recently passed is being cared for by friends and relatives at this time; she is still acclimating herself to her surroundings. It is sometimes difficult to let go of attachments to things here on the planet, for sometimes those souls identify their personality and their person with all their relationships here. But I would just ask [your sister] to pray for her friend ----, to turn toward her God and to embrace His Mercy and His Love for her. For your sister loves God and has faith, and despite any discrepancies with truth that she may believe, these will fall away in time. Does this answer your question? Yes it does. How about a little more security around apartment 4? Hey, thanks. Thank you, Master. You know I appreciate all the times you've come and wanted to pray to God; and you've come to answer questions that I've prayed to our Father about. At this time, I'd like to ask that you confirm and/or amplify my understanding about one's free will as it relates to God's Will. Previously, I understood them to be in opposition; then I was impressed there were levels of the will, the deepest level of which is learning to be in harmony with God's Will for us, the deepest level of which is at-one with our Father's Will. Would you please confirm and/or amplify my understanding of this? Jesus: The free will is the greatest gift we receive upon our creation. This is the tool that God gave us that would enable us to pray for and receive the Substance of His Great Soul. The free will is something which you must try to understand is the very center of your soul, it is the extension of your soul to the Soul of God. As you can see, by that free will, there have been those in this world who have chosen to turn away from God. And I can understand why you would see the free will in opposition to God's Will, but such is not the case, for that would be saying that the child is in opposition to the parent. [It may help to understand] our relationship to our own children and their necessary step of standing in front of a parent and saying, "I can do this myself, I don't need you," and the pain you go through in realizing they have to learn by their own mistakes. But that you don't love them any less, you love them more because they need your constant love and guidance. And the presence of that love in their life is so important in helping them make better decisions. But it is their free will they use to make those mistakes as well as to turn back to a life of harmony and love. It is no different with our Heavenly Father. He organized this Universe in such a way that the Laws work to the exact farthing of how we use our free wills - nobody slips through the cracks, every deed and every thought is accounted for. But this is not an unloving God. This is a God Who gently reminds that your first nature is love, a natural love that seeks harmony and peace, goodness and beauty - that is when you're the most happy. And so He designed the Laws of the Universe to make it a little painful to be out of sync with that harmony. But it's your free will that is the great gift you have that you use to do the right thing or the wrong thing for yourself. Does this answer your question? Thank you very much. I'd just like to ask for probably more comprehension of the messages and an increase in my ability to love so that any doubts that I have will be relieved. Jesus: I wish to say at this time that it is very important to recognize the need that we have for love. We cannot continue with a whole lot of harmony to function separately from those who care and who want to help us. We need each other, we are a family and by that love we have for one another, we are uplifted, we are supported, we are encouraged and we continue to believe and have faith in the power of that Love to give us what we need in our life. You are not alone at any time in your lives. You never have been alone, although you may have all felt at time a great distance between yourselves and love, love has never been far from you. Love is, again, what is the very make-up of your soul. It needs to be expressed and shared to be happy. Thank you for being here today. Jesus, I love you. Jesus: I love you too, ----. I'm open to anything you may be willing to share with regard to my personal life and/or what may be able to help these church members and participants in this room. Jesus: You have come to be closer to a life of service; the decision to move was a great one and important. One of the greatest challenges we have here is to assure you that it does not rest solely upon your shoulders to solve all the problems that come up in your life. Although some problems may be self-created and by changing an attitude and shedding our love and light on it, it becomes clearer, less of a problem, there are some problems that occur outside our influence that effect those that are dear to us. It is important to understand what our relationship is to those we serve with love. We are not responsible for changing them, we are only responsible for becoming the best example of love in our own life that we can. There is an accountability that we in the Celestial Heavens feel to our Heavenly Father, but when you know that He loves you and accepts you and gently picks you up when you fall, there's not a whole lot of beating up going on, it's very gentle, it's very loving, it's very patient, it's very kind. With ourselves we can be the most difficult, but consider that you are beloved, that you are revered by your Heavenly Father, that you are surrounded by angels who want to help you. Don't spend any time worrying. Master, I'm so grateful for the way my mortal friends and my Celestial friends and the Good Lord has sustained me all these months. I've learned a lot about myself from the various comments you've made to other people in the room, but I was wondering if you could say a few words to me about how I can help myself to sustain a good opinion of myself because I feel more humble now, but unfortunately, I sometimes fall into the trap of debasing myself and so I was wondering if you could give me some advice about how I could sustain a positive opinion of myself? Jesus: You must know that having a positive opinion of yourself is the truth, it is not a lie, for you are loved and you are good. It is only a matter of integrating that love we have in our souls with every aspect of our lives. You must know that it's the truth that we are children of God; every part of us is loved by Him. Is that not true? Yes. Jesus: You have to believe that, have faith in that. So, in other words, when I have faith that God created me out of Love and that love is basic to our nature, and particularly to my nature, you're saying that that fact will help me to maintain a positive opinion of myself? Jesus: By believing it. By believing it ... Jesus: And having faith in it. OK. Thank you. I would like to thank you for being here and for coming to me last night when I was in prayer. I would like to know what you want me to do. I feel a conflict between serving the Kingdom and serving the people around me. Jesus: In what way? Well, sometimes I feel like moving ... and I want to be clear on my motives. Jesus: If you were to move, would you be enabled of serving your Heavenly Father better? It depends upon where I move, if my ... I have a vision of working in a healing center, of a place on the earth plane where those who walk through the doors receive a healing on the spiritual level instantaneously and I have a vision of that and I want to know if there's a better place for me to be in order to assist in that work. Jesus: As you know, ----, in your own life, our progression is a series of steps. When you see a goal but it is not within your reach at that time, you know you must take steps toward that goal. Sometimes these steps don't seem to be going in that direction and we may be confused, but when we have faith and let that love guide us in the details of our life, in those intricacies that make us do what we do and have the relationships we have, those are steps we take to get toward our goal. Sometimes it may not seem clear to us that they are, but we have to start from where we are - you know that. And there is a tremendous help coming to you over time to make it clearer and clearer that you will not be alone in this endeavor. There will be many who will be participating in this outreach. You have already heard in this circle a desire for the same; there will be others. So, it's a matter of being patient enough with ourselves and being moved by the love that we have for ourselves and those we love to make decisions along the way that help us attain our goal. It has rarely been easy, a person is [not] handed the great design of their outreach, they have to agonize and progress and doubt. And, although I was without a lot of agony, I nonetheless needed to take steps in my own life that led me to where I needed to teach. But I loved my parents, I loved my brothers and sisters, I loved my home. And I asked questions and I prayed, and I prayed more and the answers came slowly over the years that made it clear to me what I needed to do. I'm asking you to do the same. Thank you very much. Thank you, Jesus, for coming today and being with us. I ask you what you would have me know at this time to assist in my progression? Jesus: ----, you have a wonderful opportunity to share that Love that you've received with your children. As you know, they have watched you grow and they need the assurance that you love them still, irrespective of the many ups and downs you may experience in your life. That your faith in the power of that love to keep you on that path, to keep you in wholeness, body, mind and soul, is that love that they feel from you, that they need from you, everyday. They are growing too. They are making decisions everyday, also. So the challenge for you is to do the best you can for yourself that you may be an example of love and faith. Is there one area I should concentrate on in terms of the children, more than others? Jesus: Love is the quality that brings to every action a sense of harmony and peace, of patience and kindness. It is a quality that permeates our thoughts, our actions, and our will, that makes whatever arises from that love, good. As you know, the Divine Love brings into operation laws that transcend the material laws and the mere spiritual laws that govern the natural love. There is a quality in that Divine Love that resolves and absorbs all other laws. It is almost simplistic to say, when you pray for Divine Love, you don't need to worry about anything else. There are no sub-levels or levels, It's all one big wonderful thing - It comes from God Who never moves from His place of Love for you. If we are to, as parents, use an example, what better example is there than Someone Who has Loved us from the moment of our creation, Who has never deviated from that Love, ever, and Who never will? There is a sense of permanency about that Love that gives us confidence and trust. That Love is all you need to do the best you can. Thank you, Jesus. I think I'd like to give our sister, ----, a chance to ask a question because she came late. Do you have a question for the Master? Actually, I have many, but I'll ask one. How can I turn around my life, my tortured childhood and feel that there's help for me and that it's really worth going on? How do I know that there's help out there, when I've prayed and prayed for some kind of relief from my childhood? Jesus: ----, you are God's child first, you know. Do you see the beauty on this earth plane manifested in the trees, the sky, the flowers? Do you feel the love and harmony in those things sometimes? Yes, all the time. Jesus: Can you see that that love was specifically designed to help you feel comfort and peace? This is the love of God for you on just a natural level. I want you to understand that He's waiting for you to turn to Him to seek His Love that He may give It to you, to heal you, to make you feel comforted. You're not alone, look at the faces in this room - they reach to you with their love. When we realize we must turn away from those things that are out of harmony with our creation, although it may be hard because there's a need in you to belong, you belong to God first, ----, you belong to the love in this room. You are loved. Try to love yourself, this wonderful self you have. Don't stop trying, OK? Thank you. Jesus: You're welcome. Dear Master, I've been kind of lazy about getting messages lately. Our dear ---- often says, "Oh, I have a question for the Master," and then I put it on the shelf. So, I'm going to weasel my way around not getting a message by asking my question in this sneaky way. One of the things that was his concern is, can soul perceptions be cultivated by other means than by receiving Divine Love? Or are soul perceptions and intuition one in the same? Jesus: Intuitions are more of the natural love; human beings have intuition naturally, for as you know, the relationship of body, mind and soul is something that we have always had. But soul perceptions of Love and Faith are qualities of the soul that, when developed by the Divine Love, give us a sense of Truth, a sense of knowing what the Truth is. The greatest quality of Love, which is the Divine Love, fulfills the potential we have to become sentient beings. As you know, animals on this planet are very intuitive of their environment. They're very sensitive to the thoughts and influences around them - they don't communicate with words, but there is a natural spirit that occurs between the creatures of this earth and their environment that gives them a sense of what is good, what is right, for, as you know, they very rarely act out of harmony with the laws. When we as human beings fulfill the potential of our souls by praying for the Substance of God's Soul, we then become sentient beings who can divine what Truth exists beyond just our natural environment. We can actually understand the workings of the universe on a higher level than the natural level. It is what enables us to use the Power of that Love and Faith to heal, to help our brothers and sisters. Does this answer that question? I think so, very well. Thank you. Lord Jesus, my Master, my friend, my guide, I have no questions for you at this time and I can only justify the use of this time by expressing my gratitude to you for the help that you've given me through the ages. I know that you are privy to the secret confines of my mind and because of this, you've answered so many questions for me, it has brought me out of the darkness into the light. I want to offer my gratitude, this is the only way I can justify the use of this time. I want to express my gratitude that you have snatched me from the claws of death and brought me back to life, it was so wonderful, such an expression of love as I lay on my deathbed that you'd bring me back. I have a strong sense that it might be a good thing, for you have allowed me to meet with this august body and benefit from the heads of the church and I have a sense that it might be a good thing if we could meet, this body, again, and the people that are here, on a semi-annual basis or even a quarterly basis, just for the expression of thy spirit, if this is in keeping with thy holy will. Let it be known and place it in the minds of those who are in charge, that we can somehow arrange it, that this body can meet just for spiritual things once or twice or four times a year, because this expression of this church is mainly a spiritual one, and it is a good thing that we meet for business as we have done, but if it is in keeping with thy holy will, express it, so that we can arrange it. And if it is true, I will go to the ends of the earth to be with them, wherever they decide to meet - Hawaii, Australia, Africa (laughter), I will go. I will go just to meet and have my spirits lifted as they were lifted by meeting with this great and august body. (more laughter). And I give you gratitude, again, for bringing me back so that I could be with this body, and I only ask that you would open my mind and give me the talent to speak thy will and so that when time fails me and I can no longer live in this world that you would save a place for me in thy kingdom so that I can continue to serve thee on that occasion. Let it be so. Jesus: There's not one person who wouldn't like to have you as a guide, ----. (laughter). I would say in so far as those of us here getting together more than once a year, it is certainly their option to do so. We are most happy to accommodate, travel isn't so difficult for us (lots of laughter). So, due to the limitations of the group, we would certainly be willing to have them meet as much as they want. I love you, ----.
I love you, Jesus, and thank you for all you've done for me, for I was in darkness and you brought me out of darkness into the light. I love you. We're going to take a little bit of a break now, but you didn't address our party yesterday. Jesus: We had a good time, too. (joyous laughter and playful interchange) - End of first session - Medium prays aloud: Dear Heavenly Father, I pray for Your Divine Love to come to me at this time, to fill my heart and my mind, my body, that I might be lifted off this earth plane for the short time to make rapport with Your Celestial angels that they may help those gathered in this room today, mortal and spirit, to fulfill their spiritual questions, allay their fears. I pray for this Love to bring with It the faith in Its power to keep us all protected from harmful influences and to know that my mind and my body may be stilled. I put my own ego aside to be a channel for Your Love and the truth as the development of my soul in Your Divine Love will allow. I thank You for this wonderful opportunity and for the support of these loved ones here and I love You. Jesus: I am here with you again, my brothers and sisters, and I am your brother and friend, Jesus. I am your Master, but first your friend and your brother who wishes to serve you at this time, to answer those questions you may have, to help those in need, to help yourselves get closer to the Father's Love. Master Jesus, as perhaps you are aware, I just stepped outside for a moment and walking down the street, still feeling the bliss that we've manifested here in this room, all of a sudden I overheard a man verbally abusing his daughter and I was very abruptly brought back to the realities of this earth plane and reminded of how few people know here of the Divine Love. And I just want to ask you, understanding that it is a given that we need to do what we are moved by our love to do, and understanding that you don't want to dictate to us what we should do in the way of outreach, I would sincerely like to know from your perspective, what you think would be, all other things being equal, what would be the highest priority of outreach that we might focus our energies on at this time? Amongst the choices that I'm aware of, I see that we've discussed publishing a book, there are all the potential of the internet awaiting before us, there's talk of audio tapes, healing centers, there's my personal musical career that I'm interested in hearing your thoughts on. And I'm just wondering from your perspective, can you place priorities on these various outreaches to give us a bit of an indication of where we might best focus our energies? Jesus: Fortunately, there are several among you who are moved by their love to do certain things over other things; those who are better at, perhaps, working on the books and others who are more interested in audio, and it behooves every one of you to turn in prayer to your Heavenly Father and ask how you can best serve at this time. But remember that He wants you to be happy, and what you're moved by your love to do is going to be the most effective outreach that you have. Now, although ---- said she was lazy, she has been hardly lazy as you can see from this beautiful home that she has opened to you. She's worked very hard, moved by her love, to prepare a place that's comfortable for her brothers and sisters. All things have their place and their time, and as we turn our thoughts and our love to those things at hand that are close to us and dear to us, events will unfold and we will be guided down that way that will be the most important thing for us to do. It is wonderful to have this many bright and happy souls willing to help and I believe that the fruits of this great and wonderful outreach will be many, and they will all happen simultaneously at certain times. As for your musical career, you may have put this on hold to give other things consideration, but if this is what makes you the most happy, you owe it to God and to yourself to strive to fulfill that desire you have. Love can do no wrong, only goodness and joy can come from it. So there will be those who will step forward to do certain projects and, as we develop a stronger organization and network among us, I speak both of mortal and spirit, we may more clearly offer support and help one another accomplish our goals. Again, because we can not do it alone. Thank you. Hello, Master. I would like to give my question away to the lady sitting to the right of me, so she'll have two questions. Thank you. Six months ago, I found my best friend with her head blown off and I would like to know how she's doing. Jesus: Your friend was suffering from a problem that afflicts many souls on this earth, and that is a sense of disconnectedness from those around us that can help us, that can cheer us, that can give us hope. Isolating oneself, as you know, causes great depression among many young people. One of the things I encourage you to consider is to understand the world and the events of this world from a spiritual level. Sometimes when we see the atrocities on the physical plane, we let our horror and disappointment stop there, but if we could see beyond to the great need and the calling out of souls for love and for hope and for help, you will feel your own souls rising in response as you reach to fill a need. There are many spiritual heroes who work tirelessly today to help resolve the differences among brothers and sisters to bring peace. It is unfortunate that our media cannot cover more of these miraculous events, these small acts of love and good will that create a fabric amongst ourselves that is strong, that will support us when we fall. Your friend has been surrounded by spirits whose purpose is to help raise them out of their sense of despair. It is an affliction of many, but there is hope as she turns to you and others who care for her. There is hope. Do you have another question? Thank you. I found myself in a situation last year that I really need some advice on. I worked at a group where I helped rape victims. I realized there was somebody on staff who was a rapist, who was raping the girls that I was working with and I was the only adult to stand up and say that it was a hypocrisy. ... Now, I've gone before the D.A. and to the police and they want me to come forward to prosecute the organization. I want to do the right thing for these girls, but I don't know what to do. I've been praying for guidance. My whole family will be in danger. So Jesus what should I do? Jesus: Sometimes it is hard to stand up for the truth, but when you're moved by your love to help those innocent, those who are continuing to be hurt by sin and evil, and as long as there is hypocrisy and deception in the guise of this helpful organization to continue to plague innocent people coming for help, you feel it is important as a witness to this to make a sacrifice for what you feel is right. It may be important for you in your heart of hearts, despite the dangers and despite the discomfort of knowing it may hurt others that you love, to make this sacrifice. Have you asked your family what you should do? Yes, I have and they've said they would disown me. Jesus: So you feel you are alone in this decision? Yes. Jesus: I will not tell you what to do, my dear ----, but I will tell you that you need to be true to your heart; you need to do the right thing in your heart, for you're the one who gets up everyday and looks at yourself and you're the one who needs to make the decision, "Have I done the best I can today?" You can answer that question. I would encourage you to seek support from those who love you and trust you and believe you. It is important when making a difficult decision that you feel surrounded by love. Thank you. Master, I was sort of wondering ... would you confirm why I feel so excited about this new work I'm doing and I see so much of you in it, could you comment on that? I mean you, being God's Spirit. Jesus: Your first and foremost love, ----, is helping other people. You see this as an opportunity to give others something you feel is important and helpful to them. As I have said, when one manifests their love in everything they do, it brings to it, as you say, the Spirit of Love. The Spirit of Love will attract many because of the positive, loving and joyful exchange that you may feel you're having with those that are interested in this outreach. But, it's also a possibility that these things you do can benefit yourself and your family as well, and this is an important thing to remember, that we're deserving of love in return, and bounty, for this world is a kind place when we put kindness into it. It is a good place when we are good to it. It can only succeed when you love, only good can come from it. I give you my blessings, ----. Thank you, Master. Master, is it possible to be in a state of absolute surrender? If so, is this state available to us here and now or is it relative to our progression and/or obstacles we incur rather than determined by the strength of our decision to turn our wills over to God's? Jesus: When you say "surrender" does that evoke in your own mind a sense of weakness? Was that a question? Jesus: Yes. No, absolutely not. It's a sense of empowerment and Divine Help and a sense of, yes, personal and divine empowerment that I'm connected with God's Love as strongly as I can and help of all the Celestial angels. Jesus: Can you see that as a result of your surrender that your will is glorified in the Will of the Heavenly Father? Yes. Jesus: I wish to state that when we are willing to put our hand in the Hand of our Heavenly Father, that He welcomes us, that He loves us, that He showers us with His Love and His Mercy. There is not one among you who has not failed in some way or another that God has not forgiven and mercifully loved you despite that weakness. With this same Love that God uses to bring us into His Loving Arms, we in turn embrace those around us with the same mercy, with the same love. Complete surrender - this is the Power that comes from Love, it comes from God's Love for you and your love for God. It's something you also need to treat with great respect. It is the responsibility of each soul here to do the best he or she can to love, but love needs to start within our own souls. God loves us, but it is more difficult for us to love ourselves for we are weak, we are not perfect, but when we can rise and accept this Gift with gratitude, with humility and know that it is our responsibility in turn to manifest that love in service for Him to our bothers and sisters, there is great and wonderful results. Does this answer your question, ----? I'm just wondering if there's a point at which we've done all we can do? Jesus: Yes. Would that be considered absolute or is that relative? Jesus: It's relative because our "absolute" changes every second. As we grow and expand, the Love grows and expands within our souls, our understanding of Truth grows and expands, we never stop moving. You may see examples in nature where it would appear that growth has stopped, but it continues for hundreds and hundreds of years. And such is the potential of our souls to reach the Fountainhead of God's Divine Love - got quite a bit of road ahead of us. (laughter) That's for sure. (others agree and laughter continues) Thank you. Thank you. I don't have any questions at this time. ... I'm enjoying the answers to everybody else's personal questions. None at all? Go to your room, ----. (happy laughter) I must be drinking that absolute stuff. (lots more laughter) Yes, I wanted to thank my Heavenly Father for this past year of healings; and I wanted to thank all of the angels who've been working with me and through ---- and I really appreciate all that has happened in this last year. I'm willing to do this again next year. I'm wondering, my beloved brother, if there's anything our Father would like to communicate at this time, that I perhaps have not heard as clearly as I might have previously? Thank you so much for giving us this opportunity again. Jesus: We have an opportunity today to make a choice to receive the most wonderful help available; it's an opportunity because in this world we need to recognize the gift of our will and how freeing it is to use that will to respond to a Love that is the most powerful Force in this universe over our lives and the lives of others. What I encourage you to believe so much in is the Power of that Love to bring your lives into the state of harmony and peace that you seek. This work begins within us for we cannot lead others or help others unless we can lead ourselves out of our depressions and illnesses through our love for ourselves and through our acceptance of God's Love for us. This is an opportunity because not many know they have this Help available to them and you do. It's a great Gift to be able to help ourselves, for you are precious to our Heavenly Father, and it is the first order of the day to love and to cherish that person who is you, for you may in turn love and cherish others who are beloved by God. You are a gift. You are an angel in this world. I'm asking you to shine your love on yourself that it may shine upon others. Dear Jesus, please share with us whether the message that ---- received from a Celestial angel while I was on the phone with her, that said that it was time for our church to begin preparing to create a new version of the Bible, is really God's Will for our church, if we are as a church are willing to do this. Jesus: Again, as you are moved by your love to do any project, this love is what carries these projects to fulfillment. And although we have not come upon the mass attention of those in this earth plane who are looking for answers, I want to assure you that the solidity of your love and your faith in the messages that you're bringing is unchallengeable. So, as you build this work, stone by stone, to become solidly founded in Love, it will surely withstand all of the tempests that this planet will throw at you and at your efforts. What you have is a fortress of Love from which you may seek solace and find fortitude to carry on, and I encourage you to be moved by your love again and again and again to do the work you do. I'm thankful that we're all gathered here and that there's a great spirit of harmony that you've all brought, that all our spirit guides have brought; and I appreciate that we have all come together and are setting aside our personal differences and are loving each other. And to me, this is the greatest blessing because we're a church of great individualists and we've come to the Truths and to the volumes through many roads, none of them have been easy roads, I would say. I think at times we've all probably felt very much alone and very much misunderstood, and it has been hard for us gathering together and trusting ourselves, and we need to trust one another and feel that we're a family and that we're here for the same reason and the same purpose .And I really want a sense of this, a very strong sense that we, first of all, can trust ourselves and our guidance. I know ---- has asked about mediumship and that has been a big question for us; how to trust our own mediumship? How to trust another's mediumship? Any further clarification you can give I would appreciate. Jesus: The first mediumship event here on this earth was when an Angel of God influenced a soul to consider the Nature of God, the Love of God. Mediumship is a talent that all human beings may develop, but where it is a glory to God and a true gift to mankind is when that mediumship lifts our eyes and our souls to the Loving Nature of our Heavenly Father and to the hope and comfort and the peace that that Love brings. If you wonder how to gauge mediumship, ask yourself how that mediumship makes you feel. Are you at peace? Do you feel love? Does it make you feel in harmony with your brothers and your sisters? Does it make the compassion and the mercy of that love flow out to those you care for, who you are trying to help? As you fill your souls with this Great Love, It can only flow out, just like a cup that flows over and over, the energy can only go out and It's good and It heals and It comforts. Ask yourself if your mediumship is a glory to God. Ask if it comforts your brother or your sister. But let the Angel of God talk to you, as you are a medium for yourself to commune with your Heavenly Father. For the Great Holy Spirit is the most wonderful and exalted Spirit in this universe and It brings this Great Love to you. It's so comforting and so peaceful and It will answer your question. In that Love, turn to your angels and ask, "If there's any way I can help, let me know." Jesus, I think you may have touched on this question a little bit with ----. I was wondering how best to give my love to those around me, those who I love and those who are somewhat strangers to me? How best to give my love unconditionally? Jesus: Part of loving others is having to open ourselves to them. Sometimes it is difficult to feel vulnerable to others because we have been hurt before, we have been let down. But when we love ourselves and we allow ourselves to be [loved], and accept that we are loved of God, that allows us to see more clearly those around us who want to be loved. It is awkward sometimes for two people to figure out how best to communicate with one another when there have been hurts. Sometimes there is not accord and harmony, at first. But I would recommend that you retreat into yourself for a moment to remember that you are loved and that God patiently nurtures you through all your errors and all your questions and guides you, and it is that Love that will help you see how best to relate to those who you do not know. Love is what helps us understand one another; it goes beyond the mental and physical differences, it lets us have a relationship and a rapport with somebody right away because it's not confined by space, time and experience. It is a relationship we've had since we've been created, so there is a help to you as you nurture yourself as a great storehouse of love, open your soul more and more to let more Love in and more love out to those who need, for that's what they need. Well, Master, when I came to the conviction about the Padgett messages I felt burning in my soul, in fact I thought I had seen the greatest breakthrough in all history. The problem is that it's been such a difficult thing to let go of my fear whether it be of the future or not, I know it stands in my way. Do you think I have a problem with the fact that the Padgett messages are not known in the world and they seem small? I hadn't thought so, but I thought maybe that's a problem for me because I do feel that I still have some things that hold me back and I wanted to know if this problem is something that I own; the problem of the fact that we are not known in the world, we are given the silent treatment, we are not respected by the society at large. I wanted to ask you if this is something ... if you feel that this is something that effects me? And if it does, how can I overcome it? Jesus: I wish to make clear that the message through Padgett was one of the Divine Love - the potential that we have to receive It. Since my coming to this earth plane and accepting the potential of receiving the Divine Love, there have been many who have felt responsible to continue to make clear that availability. And although the condition of mankind is such that what takes most notice is not of things spiritual, there is a tremendous network of souls on this earth who are working toward the development of Divine Love - it goes beyond the people in this room, it goes beyond the books that you read. This is a Living Spirit that has been a part of this earth and the heavens since I came to earth. You are, as a result of your desire and your free will, a part of this community. Seeing this outreach as small is doing it a disservice because this movement is the largest movement in this universe; it has millions upon millions of Celestial angels behind it and millions of earth plane spirits and souls working constantly to make God's presence, as a Loving and Merciful God, known. So, Master, are you saying that by seeing the work for the Kingdom as it impinges in the Spirit World, that is certainly very, very vast, and therefore are you saying that you feel that this is a problem I own or is it not? I just want to have a clarification about that. Jesus: It's a problem you can certainly surmount. OK, OK. Thank you, Master. Hello, Master. I'd like to ask a question. I know had you mentioned before ... What I'd like to know is, for the culmination of Divine Love to transform the mortal into the divine angel, what aspects of that journey do I need to focus on besides my relationship with my children to help complete that? Jesus: It starts within yourself. We have to remember the balance of the material life that we still need to nurture here; sometimes there is too much emphasis on the needs of our bodies and our minds, but I believe it has more to do with not accepting that God loves and reveres that part of us also. We tend not to glorify or accept as holy those material parts of us that are so demanding, and if we can see this part as a glory to God also, and as something that we need to love and respect and cherish, just as we would the child, just as we would the chore to be done in love, we would have more harmony and peace and accord in making these parts of us work as a team to manifest that love in better and better ways. People are complicated. They bring many ancestors with them, many years of erroneous thoughts. But despite this, we also have a wonderful heritage, for as ---- was saying, this group is comprised of many individuals who are very strong in and of themselves - they're pioneers, they are way-showers, they're leaders. And so as we try to understand who we are and embrace ourselves, we are better able to embrace others. Does this answer your question? In part. I'd like to know, in terms of how I'm living my life and, yes, praying with my fellow brothers and sisters on the path, inwardly and coming outward, do all angers, all habits in forming new and better ones, I know patience is one thing I need to work on, I guess what I'm trying to do is complete this map. Jesus: It's a process, but it's not one that can't be guided and nurtured with Love. And patience is important because it gives us a sense that now is the right time, that there is enough time, that we're not too late. You never need to feel that you're too late. It's good when we forgive our weaknesses and we can forgive the weakness in others, to know that they haven't been the culprit in why we may or may not be farther along. Start with yourself. Start now. This is a good time, it's the best time, it's the only time. Thank you, Master. Here I go again with another diverted question. It seems like ---- has people on the internet who ask him things that he would like clarification on, and one of the things that is a problem for us is how can ... we've been told that the angels can't see, predict, very far into the future because of free will choices that people can make, and yet, the question is, when was it foreordained or decided that you would be the Messiah? And when did Divine Love become available to humankind? When you incarnated? In the time ... if you inherited or you were destined as a descendant from Abraham and David and these 14 generations and etcetera, how was this to become a reality when you had the free will choice to not accept the Love? Can I clarify that question a little bit? Yes. Master, if you could answer that in the context of Dr. Samuels' New Testament Revelations regarding the prophecies of Daniel in the Old Testament. Thank you. Jesus: I spoke of mediumship and, in the earlier days, of the spirits of Angels that were specifically sent to earth to help mankind open their eyes and their hearts to understanding the Nature of God. You'll understand that many of these connected with the natural love to their Creator and that it enabled the spirits to come through with Truth based on the Eventual Harmony that you know is a Law in this universe. But I wish to state again and again, they had no way of predicting the year. They had no way because of the free will which, yes, I had intact in my soul, I had a choice, I did not have to accept that Love. And so the prophecy of Daniel may have had to be put on hold for yet another 2,000 years, but time is nothing to God. It doesn't matter to Him how long it takes His children to find the Way, He loves them still. And so, remember as you give guidance, don't put time to it, especially when it comes from the Celestial Heavens. Thank you, Master. (---- says, "Wow!") Ask the Master to address us with what he wants us to hear. Yes, of course, of course. First, speaking for all of us, you know that we want your benediction, Master, but I just want to, for all of us, to communicate our gratitude. I mean, we're going to go ... we're not going to fly home on an airplane, we're just going to take off by ourselves because we feel so wonderful. We've had such a wonderful time. And, by the way, it's not over yet, a lot of us are staying till Monday. We're going to go sing again, we had a wonderful singing session and, as I say, I'm sure that all of us here want to communicate to all of their relatives and all of their friends up in the Celestial and the Spirit World, a great "hello" and a concern that they progress and that they are also very, very happy because we still love them all. But, thank you, most of all Master, for taking the time as you have done for many years now, coming and giving us the inspiration and giving us this opportunity to meet with you and to have all the Celestials and spirits there who ---- said couldn't actually be able to see everybody if they were all racked up one back of the other, but we understand that the communication is primarily by thought, so apparently thought reached the furthest recesses of the crowd of people that are here and in that sense, I guess we can be very grateful that no one was left out in terms of enjoying what we enjoyed today. Thanks again, Master, please give us your benediction. Jesus: (sigh) I just wish to reiterate what a joyous occasion this is for us in the Celestial Heavens, for a gathering of so many souls who aspire for this Love and to make it a part of their life in every way. It is such as tremendous opportunity for us, also; it is a celebration for us, it is something that we take home to our corners of the universe as something we enjoy as time goes on. And we will continue to work with you throughout the years, for we are part of you, we are your brothers and your sisters and we are always open to your love. We need your love, too. You have it, Master. We all love you. May I just interject? I've been handed a ... I feel like I'm on a broadcast here ... I've just been handed a slip of paper, it's a late bulletin, we didn't get the final word on the militarism which we passed around, we wanted your input on that. We felt that a statement against aggression and militarism was at least something that we could incorporate in our bylaws even though we may not take a position of conscientious objector or what have you, and we seem to have an unanimous feeling about that. Would it be proper to put this kind of a statement in our bylaws? Jesus: It is imperative that you do this. Oh great, great. Jesus: For it does give those in this church an opportunity to stand up against what they know in their heart is not in keeping with God's Laws. Hmm... Amen to that! Yes, thank you. Master, is there anything else you'd like to say? Jesus: Just, love you all. Oh, we love you too. Can we all say goodbye to our friends? (lots of noisy goodbyes) Oh, they're going to stay with us! Thank you, ----. (lots of thank yous, a big applause for the medium) - End of session - |
