Teachings of the Divine

The essential message of these teachings is simple: There is a God: Architect and Creator of
the Universe. If one word were used to describe God, it would be Love.

We human beings are in fact God's children, our soul (the true self, the seat of consciousness)
having been created in God's image.

As God's children, we were created with the potential to receive the actual essence of God's
soul into our soul, and to thus become transformed from the image of the divine into the very
substance—at one with God, and conscious of our immortality.
This "divine essence" is God's personal love, which we call the divine love. It is separate and
distinct from the "natural love" that is manifest throughout God's creation, and comes into the
soul only in response to sincere, heartfelt desire for its inflowing—in other words, in response
to prayer. This love will not come into the soul without these prayers, for it is given only to
those who freely choose to receive it.

The transformation brought about by this love is gradual, the pace being determined by the
frequency and "soulfulness" of one's prayers for the love. There is a "snowball effect" at work
also—each inflowing of the love bringing with it an increase in faith, making it progressively
easier to aspire for the love....

And that, in essence, is all there is to it. Jesus and the other spirit-authors of these messages
emphatically state that they are not speculating regarding these matters, but are speaking from
personal experience and perception. And they explain that these same experiences and
perceptions may be ours, if we are willing to perform the "great experiment" of sincerely
asking for God's love. Even an agnostic can perform this experiment—all that's required is a
humble heart, an open mind, and a willingness to persevere long enough to overcome one's
"internal barriers"—i.e. fear, doubt, unworthiness, resistance to change, etc.

Even if you should choose not to read any further, you now know the way to acquire the
most precious possession that a human being could ever desire. Ask God with all your heart
for this love, and it will never be denied you.

The more you ask, the more you will receive - and this through all eternity.

"And what exactly does this love do for me, in practical terms?" you may be wondering. A
short answer is that it will enable you to manifest progressively greater qualities of divinity—
just as it did for Jesus, who was the first person ever to receive this divine transformation. And
although one of the purposes of these messages is to deflate some of the myths about Jesus'
life as related in the Bible, we are still given to understand that he was the most powerful
healer and personification of spiritual truth that this world has seen.

This brief description gives rise to a thousand questions, the answers to many of which will be
found in these messages. But above all, we hope that you'll remember and take to heart these
simple words:

Pray for God's Love…
