I AM HERE--Jesus:
Yes, I am, and you will be enabled to fully understand what the * Holy Ghost is, and what meaning should be given to it as you find it referred to in various parts of the Bible. I will say this though; that it is not God. It is merely one of his instrumentalities, used by Him in doing His work for the redemption of mankind.
I will not write any message tonight, but will commence next week, if you are in better condition.
Well, as you believe what I say as to my being a son of God, and not a god, you can easily believe that my coming to you as I do, is not at all contrary to any law of the spirit world. The fact that I have my home in the highest Celestial Heaven does not prevent me from coming to earth to do my work, which has not been carried on by those of earth who should have performed it. I am a spirit of love and sympathy, as well as of great spiritual development; and I desire that all men shall know what the great plan of the Father is for their redemption and happiness.
So, because I am such an exalted spirit as you say, it is no reason that I should not come to you, and communicate with you freely and in a way confidentially. I love you as I have told you, and I have selected you to do my work and hence, I am trying to make you one wholly at-one with me.
You must not doubt me just because I come to you so often and speak so familiarly with you, because I hope and expect that in the great future you will be very close to me and with me. I am trying to prepare you for so great a progression in your spiritual condition, that when you come over, you will realize the oneness that I speak of, and be fitted to live near my sphere.
Well, your grandmother is a wonderful spirit in her development, and by the time you come over she will be near me, in my home, and as I believe, will your mother and wife. They are all filled with the Father's love and are receiving it more abundantly all the time. They are now in the first sphere of my kingdom, and will find that their progress will be much more rapid.
So try to believe what I say and do my will, and all will be well with you.
Well, soon you will be free as I told you, and then you can do the work without being interfered with by material things. I know that it is hard for you to lay aside these cares, and I am not disappointed or impatient that you do not, but only believe that the time will soon come when they will trouble you no more.
So as we have written somewhat long to night I will stop now. I will pray for you as I always do.
With all my love and the blessings of the Father.
