Fear blocks the communications of the Holy Spirit

Dearest Ones,

The heavenly hosts are singing around my throne today, for the long journey of mankind into sin is almost over, and the dawn of eternity is about to rise. The sun of righteousness is shining upon you today, and I am pleased with your tenacity and determination to reach the golden shore of my kingdom. Walk humbly before me and be a servant of mankind as I was when I was upon the earth. Let my love for everyone around you be seen in your countenance and in your character. You need never fear that I will forsake you or turn my face from you, although the trials that are coming upon the earth will be sore before my coming. But I will see my faithful ones through safely just as I protected Noah and his family in the flood that I sent upon the earth. It was not an easy time for them and it will not be an easy time for my chosen ones now, but you will be safe in the arms of angels who will be with you every moment, even though they will be invisible to your eyes. Do not fear what lies ahead, for fear is not from me and it will cut off your perceptions of my love and care for you and your ability to perceive my presence. Faith is the avenue by which my blessings come to you and through which I communicate with your mind. Living faith keeps the lines of communication open for the impressions of my Spirit. So you can see how important faith is to your happiness and salvation.

Now walk humbly before me and cling to my love and care for you, because I cannot guide your mind if you allow any fear to reside in your heart. Remember that fear was the first impulse that arose in the hearts of Adam and Eve after they sinned, and through fear of death the devil will control the masses in the end of time. Fear blocks the communications of my Spirit and allows entrance into your mind from the spirit of evil. So the great controversy between good and evil will end where it began. In the end there will be only two classes–those who possess the fear of the Lord which produces holiness of character and allows the Holy Spirit to fill the mind and heart, and those whose minds are filled with fear of me that comes from rebellion against my law, which contains the principles of freedom from fear, sin, and death. Satan is in control of all who rebel against me, and he fills them with his own spirit of fear, anger, and rebellion against my kingdom. I want my people to be like Gideon and his band of three hundred. All the fearful went home to hide from the possibility of injury or death in the battle.

But Gideon and his army trusted not in self but in me and my power to give them safety and success in the battle and to earn my approval of their willingness to go forward at my command. So I am bidding you now to go forward and you will see the mighty hand of my omnipotence as I route the enemy and free my children forever from the work of the evil one.

Stand firm and you will see the salvation of the Lord! 

Lovingly, Jesus.

A Pathway Through the Storm

Dearest Ones,

Fearful things are about to come upon the world and its inhabitants–yea, they have already begun. But I have a plan of escape for each person who loves and serves me to the best of their ability, and that includes you and your family, just as I preserved Noah and his family in the ark.

So I will preserve my beloved ones at the end of time, which is already upon us. But fear not, for I will never leave you nor forsake you until I come in the clouds of heaven to rescue my faithful ones from the madness that Satan has caused by his rebellion. I have not caused this state of things in the earth and society, but I will bring it to a close as you shall soon see. Time will not last much longer, because there is no point to extending the insanity that is going on now. Very few have not already made their decisions for or against me and my truth and my people. Only a comparatively few are in the valley of decision. These I will bring in under the latter rain and the power and light that I will pour out at that time–yea, it has already begun in the preaching of the sanctuary and especially the cleansing of the second apartment work that I am doing now. Some hearts are open to this truth around the world, and I will guide you to them and them to you in due time. Some you will never know until you get to heaven and there you will reap the joy of the redeemed who will inherit my kingdom.

Look up, faithful ones, for your redemption draws nigh! Do not fear what lies ahead, for I have a pathway for you through the storm. You will be hated by the world and derided by former brethren, but you will stand firm, knowing that I have chosen you to carry the last warning message to the world. And you will be successful–not in your own eyes, but in my eyes, and the eyes of my Father who loves you and highly prizes your devotion and labors for our cause in the earth. By the message you carry you will seal the inhabitants of earth, either for salvation and redemption, or to be among the lost who will reject your message and revile you for preaching it. So it has always been with my true followers–my little remnant of every age down through the ages who would rather die than deviate an inch from my truth to please those whose unregenerate heart’s desire smooth things and easy pathways to heaven. So will they lie down in torment when they find out that by fighting your message of truth they were fighting against me and the principles of my kingdom. Prideful hearts always desire messages that agree with them and make them feel that their ways are righteous and holy before God. How disappointed they will be in the day of their judgment when they discover that their ways were the ways of Satan, and their end will be the same as his.

But my beloved ones who were scoffed at and spit upon just as I was will inherit all things and sit with me on my throne forever, and bask in the light and love that emanates from me and my Father for all who have accepted me and lived out my principles in their lives, regardless of the consequences to themselves. I will call them forth from their dusty beds and they will join my living saints who have been faithful to me through the end of time. And so the travail of my soul will be satisfied, and the love I have for each of you will be requited, for I will have you by my side and enjoying my kingdom forever. May that be the hope that sees you through the days ahead!

Lovingly, Jesus.

The Latter Rain

Dearest Ones,

I am very pleased with the way you handled the subject of the Holy Spirit last night [in the Friday night meeting]. This is a difficult subject at best, for no one has ever seen or heard the Holy Spirit visibly or audibly as you would a normal person, yet He is as verily a person as are my Father and I. However, the complete understanding of the Holy Spirit cannot be understood by created beings because He is a divine and eternal member of the Godhead. However, I want you to continue to study prayerfully and carefully all that I reveal to you about Him, because I am preparing to pour out the latter rain in abundance such as has never before been seen upon the earth. Also, I want you to become more acquainted with Him than mankind has ever known, because the cleansing of your characters from all sin will permit your mind to be more acutely aware of His movings upon your heart. You see, sin abrogates the perception of the mind and

heart to perceive the gentle movings of the Spirit. He is gentle because He will never force or overpower the will of anyone. He wants you to listen carefully with all your heart to perceive His wisdom and guidance, and the more you do this the more your mind will become sensitive to His slightest whisper. You are not aware of the movings of your internal organs, yet He is the author and protector of them all, and the invisible power that produces life and health in your body. If you abuse your body you are abusing the Spirit, because He loves you and wants to give you healing and abundant life. But I do not want you to worry about this, but instead to become more aware of your responsibility to cooperate with the Spirit in order to keep your body healthy, for it is the abiding place of the Spirit.

Another thing that I want you to become keenly aware of is that the amount of Holy Spirit that you receive in the latter rain will be proportionate to your surrender to, and cooperation with, the cleansing of your mind from all sin, which is, as you know, disagreement with God. Just as love cannot flow freely between two people who are in disagreement, so sin blocks the freedom of the Holy Spirit to communicate with you; and since love is the first and most important aspect of the Holy Spirit, sin blocks the amount of love you will feel for my Father and I. If you do not feel our love, it is not because we do not love you, for our love is eternal. But the presence of sin darkens your ability to perceive our love and respond to it. By that I do not mean to say that we love the wicked who will be destroyed in the fires of hell at the end of time. The wicked have completely cut themselves off from any perception of, or avenue for, our love, and there is nothing left in them to connect with our love. They have chosen Satan as their God and must suffer extinction from the universe along with him.

Now my beloved ones, I want you to know how important you are to the finishing of the plan of salvation. There must be a finished product to my sacrifice for the human race, and time has been extended to give each person ample understanding of what I am doing in the most holy place of the heavenly sanctuary, and to cooperate with me until I can produce in you holy characters which fully represent me and have come to perfection, which simply means perfect agreement with me down to the smallest detail of your lives. This is not as difficult as people tend to see it, but in simple terms, it means a relationship with me that allows the full indwelling of the Holy Spirit to influence every thought and direct every action. This is how I lived a perfect life on earth, and this is how my chosen ones will live a perfect life at the end of time.

All who have gone before you have chosen me as far as they knew. But I am pouring out the full light and understanding for the final generation that reveals my character in every aspect, and thus will make possible the finished work of salvation. You are ready to do this work for me now if you will but surrender completely in every aspect of your lives, and as you live up to the light you know, I will reveal more to you which will equip you to receive the full light of the latter rain of my Holy Spirit. Then you will be completely clothed in my righteousness, and fitted for a place beside me on my throne. Don't you want this marvelous privilege, my beloved ones? It can be yours now as you move forward with the light you have toward the full light and power of the latter rain. Come, walk with me today, and tomorrow I will give you fruit to eat from the Tree of Life in my kingdom.

Lovingly, Jesus.

My Love Never Changes

Dearest Ones,

I do not want you to live in fear of my disapproval of you, for I am the same yesterday, today, and forever. I will never withdraw my love from you; for just as the sun sometimes goes behind the clouds and then reappears, so my love for you is constant, even though the trials of life sometimes obscures my face from your view. You do not need to feel my love all the time to believe that I still love you the same. You must learn to have confidence in my love, even when the shadows fall across your pathway. I have already paid the price for every sin, and as long as you are willingly my child, you need never wonder if you have offended me and caused me to distance myself from you. This does not mean that if you deliberately sin and choose to listen to the voice of the enemy that I will continue to give you my approval. But I know that you would never do that. Your love for me is tried-and-true, and I assure you that I will never leave you nor forsake you, just as I have promised.

Now go to the remainder of your day, but please do not fear or become depressed over your little trials and challenges that come your way through the day. I have not promised that I will keep you from the trials that come in your earthly life. I have promised to see you through these trials if you look steadfastly to me and hold my hand, which is always outstretched to you. And hand in hand we will go all the way to my eternal kingdom which is waiting for you to inherit when the work is done and your earthly journey is over. I am coming soon -- always keep that utmost in your heart, and soon my joy will be yours when we are together in my kingdom.

Lovingly, Jesus.

My Love for you is Constant

Dearest One,

I do not want you to live in fear of my disapproval of you, for I am the same yesterday, today, and forever. I will never withdraw my love from you; for just as the sun sometimes goes behind the clouds and then reappears, so my love for you is constant, even though the trials of life sometimes obscures my face from your view. You do not need to feel my love all the time to believe that I still love you the same. You must learn to have confidence in my love, even when the shadows fall across your pathway. I have already paid the price for every sin, and as long as you are willingly my child, you need never wonder if you have offended me and caused me to distance myself from you. This does not mean that if you deliberately sin and choose to listen to the voice of the enemy that I will continue to give you my approval. But I know that you would never do that. Your love for me is tried-and-true, and I assure you that I will never leave you nor forsake you, just as I have promised.

Now go to the remainder of your day, but please do not fear or become depressed over your little trials and challenges that come your way through the day. I have not promised that I will keep you from the trials that come in your earthly life. I have promised to see you through these trials if you look steadfastly to me and hold my hand, which is always outstretched to you. And hand in hand we will go all the way to my eternal kingdom which is waiting for you to inherit when the work is done and your earthly journey is over. I am coming soon -- always keep that utmost in your heart, and soon my joy will be yours when we are together in my kingdom.

Lovingly, Jesus.

Do Not Fear the Time of Trouble

Dearest Ones,

I am pleased to tell you that you are chosen to lead the people on earth who understand the judgment of the living and how to go through it and live to see my coming in the clouds of heaven. No one else has received so clear an understanding until now. This has delayed my coming for several generations, for I cannot have a people to be cleansed and alive until I have full cooperation and an intelligent understanding of what it takes to go through the cleansing process. Keep up the good work and keep close to me as we go through the end, because it will only be by my strength and grace that anyone will survive through the time of trouble. But survive you will, for angels that excel in strength will surround you and guide you through every challenge and hardship. You will often be perplexed, but not cast down. You need never fear that I will forsake you or leave you to suffer hunger or distress beyond your ability to endure.

This is not a time for distress upon my people as it was during the Dark Ages, but it will be a time of distress and anguish for the wicked who have spurned my love and grace and will reap what they have sown.

Now go to the rest you deserve, but tell all my people to not be afraid of the troublous times that are ahead, but keep looking to me for guidance, encouragement and love, and I will guide you safely through the storm that is even now rising from the ends of the earth. Hide yourselves under my wings and you will only see what will happen to the wicked. The time of trouble will soon pass away and eternal day will dawn for my chosen and faithful followers. Keep your eyes directed upward from whence comes your help. I have planned for this day from eternity, for it is the time when the battle against Satan will be won, and my people will be safely at home with me. Until then, remember that I have promised that I will never leave you nor forsake you, and my promise is sure.

Lovingly, Jesus.

Sabbath evening

Dearest Ones,

I see you struggling with all your heart and strength to keep up with the light that I am sending upon you from my throne, and I am pleased with my little band of workers. There is much more to come upon the world as we head toward the end of all things, and you will need supernatural strength to work and to endure, so you must stay close to me at all times. My Father and I are letting the winds of strife go around the world and we are headed into the storm. But do not be afraid, little flock. because you are more precious to me than fine gold, for you are so responsive to everything I ask you to do, and my army of angels can move forward into the battle against the foe because you are spearheading the dissemination of the truth of the cleansing that must get out to my true people all around the world. I will help you do this as we will see.

Now go to the activities of the evening, but remember never to get discouraged, never fear that I am not with you, even if you feel the cold waves around your feet. Go forward and I will be with you and open doors of service to you if you are in step with me. I love you more than you can imagine, for my heart of love is touched and pleased with your love for me and your dedication to me. That is all I need to go forward, just as I did with Gideon's three hundred men. I know you are grieved by Jean Marie's defection and the persecution you are receiving as a result of her negative influence, but keep praying for Dave, for he has a true heart of love and faithfulness and I will continue to work for his reclamation. I have much more to reveal to you as you go forward, but this is all for now. Keep your faith high and I assure you that I will never disappoint you. The end is near and you are my little band of warriors. Keep the faith and trust in me that you have now, and your joy will be full and your work rewarded when the work is done.

Lovingly, Jesus.

The destruction of the wicked

Dearest One,

 I see you struggling with those who want to believe that I have no right to destroy the wicked, and that the wicked die of natural causes determined by themselves. This is a view contrived by Satan to dream that he can somehow protect himself and avoid extinction. Although it is true that I often use natural causes to bring destruction to the wicked, I have all power in heaven and earth to destroy my enemies and protect my chosen ones when this becomes necessary. Satan wants to bring me down to his level -- just as he has always wished to do. He wants to be given the opportunity to undermine my authority in the earth and in the universe, and ultimately establish his own. His heart has been so determined from the beginning of his revolt against me, and he never ceases to devise theories which would give him an advantage in the eyes of all created beings. 

But I am patiently working out my plan and I will have no hurry and no delay as I show to the universe the real perpetrator of wrath and violence and destruction. He attempts to overthrow me by painting me as the angry villain that he himself is, and he dreams of making my loving character and government look capricious and untrustworthy. Please read the Bible with a heart of trust and love for me, and you will see that Satan has attempted to make me appear to have a temperament like his own. But my true followers know and love and trust me, and these are those who will stand with me in white raiment, and glory in the love and freedom that comes through obedience to my law. They will be with me when I make up my kingdom, and they will shine like jewels forever and ever, never more to fear death or harm, and never more to hear the wrath and lies of the enemy. 

That day is soon to come, my beloved ones, so hold fast to your faith, and my righteous right arm will protect you through the time of trouble that is soon to come upon us. Bear the temptations of the enemy just a little while longer, and you will reap the joy of my everlasting kingdom, along with all the saints who have lived in this sinful world. Listen not to the baying of the wolves, but look up and rejoice, for your redemption draws near, and all your tears and fears will be past as you reap the reward of your faith and love for me and my Father in the kingdom of love that we have provided for those who love and trust me until the end. Lovingly, Jesus.

Preparing for Jesus to Come Receiving His Spirit

Dearest One, I have been busy traversing the world to tend to my people upon the Sabbath day. Most are waking up to the reality that the end is near at hand. But none have the light that you do concerning how to get ready for the close of probation and my coming in the clouds of heaven in all my glory by the side of my Father and all the holy angels. Heaven will be empty, for all of heaven is with me when I come. In the meantime, my angels are sent around the world as ambassadors, seeking for every honest person who really wants to be a part of my kingdom and is truly open to the light that is now available to every person of how to prepare and cleanse their hearts of all sin, which, as you know, is disagreement with the principles of my kingdom.

Can you think how unhappy the wicked would be in heaven? No earthly entertainment, no food that would appeal to their perverted appetites. Yes, all sinners would be supremely unhappy in heaven. But you, my beloved ones, will find the greatest joy there, for you have learned to love my principles which produce love, joy, and peace, and an eternity of happiness and constant delight at the beautiful things I have prepared for you, and the privilege of getting to know intimately my Father and me, and all the holy angels who have loved and served you throughout your life. In addition to these joys will be the blessed association with the saved of all the ages, and the restoration of your loved ones into your arms where you can be with them for eternity.

It is coming so soon, beloved ones -- but there will be the Jordan to cross before you enter the Promised Land. I will take you by the hand and lead you, so do not fear. The world is going to come down, but I will bear you up in angel's wings if you trust and obey. Please do not waste your energy worrying or fretting about anything, for this shows a lack of faith in me and my love for you. Satan constantly is trying to discourage you and bring darkness and fear upon you, but if you determine in your heart and practice moment by moment to look only to me and trust me and my love for you, you will be able to stay connected with me, for I am the same yesterday, today, and forever, and you need never fear or doubt my love and care for you.

Now go to the remainder of your evening, but please keep your heart open to the impressions of my Spirit, for it is through the Spirit that I guide you and give you my love. Resist not the Spirit, for it is the connection between your heart and mine, and the only way that I can guide you and send you my love. Do you see how important it is not to listen to any other voice but my Spirit? Many other voices are in this world, but there is only one that comes directly from me to you. Of course, the angels cooperate with my Father and me as we care for your every need. But the Holy Spirit that lives in us lives also in you, and thus we are one with each other. You are a part of us when the Holy Spirit lives in you and guides you moment by moment. That is why the cleansing of your heart and mind is so important, because the Holy Spirit cannot have full reign in your life if your inherited and cultivated defects and sins block the flow of the Spirit. By grace you are still in communication with me in spite of the shortfalls in your character, but I died not only to save you, but also to cleanse you of all sin which separates me from you.

So hold onto me as we move together into the final phase of this earth's history, for it is going to be a rocky ride; but the road through the end of time will lead you to the kingdom and eternit with me. Before you know it, the battle will be over and you will be at home with me. Be patient and faithful, and you will walk with me through the Jordan to the lovely, bright home I have prepared for you, my bride! Lovingly, Jesus.

Counsel from Jesus after being harassed during the night

Dearest One,

I see your struggles when Satan is permitted to have influence upon your mind at night. This is not because you have done anything deliberately or knowingly wrong, but because there are yet areas in your life that give him access to your mind, and need to be cleansed before I can protect you completely from these experiences. I assure you that this will come to an end soon, so be patient and do the homework that is necessary in order to be completely free. Be assured that I love you and am not displeased with your service and devotion to me, for you are doing your utmost to walk humbly and prayerfully with me and fulfill your daily duties acceptably. I will release you soon, for you are not doing anything knowingly or purposefully wrong. These episodes are simply times when, because of certain weaknesses of the flesh, you are under the harassment of the evil one when your conscious mind is at rest, and your subconscious is in the ascendancy.

You see, your subconscious as well as your conscious mind must be cleansed, for the subconscious mind influences you, even when you are awake, but at night it has control over the areas where there are still wrong thoughts and feelings which in the daytime are kept subject to the Holy Spirit working through your conscious mind. Thus, you do not realize that there are yet uncleansed roots and motives that need to be revealed, and cleansed during your worship time with me in the morning. Rejoice and be exceeding glad, because this means that your cleansing has progressed to the inner level of the subconscious roots, and thus, as you cooperate with me, you will complete the cleansing process and be set free of any further harassment, and be sealed by the Holy Spirit. [See EW 269-271.]

Above all, do not become discouraged and think that I am displeased with you. Stay in the sanctuary and refute the lies of the enemy through praise, Scripture, and communing with me through the Holy Spirit. I am the Refiner of the gold needed for your character, and the Holy Spirit will be the second witness when my work is completed. So do not fear, my precious ones, for you are the apple of my eye, and I would rather allow heaven and earth to pass away than forsake you when you are clinging to me for support and love while the cleansing of your character is going forward. Always remember: the cleansing is to burn away the dross in your character—your thoughts and feelings—until you are fully responsive and in perfect agreement with my thoughts and feelings about everything. Then, you will be a finished product of my sacrifice for you, and safe to be in my kingdom where everything is perfect love, joy and peace. This I bequeath to you, my bride, when you are finished with the burnishing, polishing process which is now going on in the hearts and minds of my people.

Endure a little longer, my beloved ones, and you will soon come into green pastures where the devil cannot reach you and attack your emotions and thoughts. Learn to rely wholly upon me, no matter what you might experience, night or day. Then you will be where Satan cannot enter the sphere of your mind or emotions, conscious or subconscious, for this is the place of my throne in your life, where only I should be. This process is the wedding of my mind, thoughts and feelings with yours, and when this is accomplished you will be ready for the marriage supper of the Lamb. May you endure the full cleansing of your characters and be fitted to wear the sparkling white robe of my righteousness. Lovingly, Jesus.

The Art of Giving and Receiving God’s Love

Dearest One,

I know that you are very troubled about your capacity of love for me and others, but I want to bring you comfort in this area, because you do not even know the capacity of your love and how deep and wide it is from my point of view. You see, I judge on the basis of the capacity with which I have created you, therefore you cannot know how to compare yourself with another person.

Everyone is unique and different from one another, and I see each one on the basis of what I have created them to be. No two are alike, just as the snowflakes in the sky and the leaves on the trees. Therefore, you cannot see what I observe in the heart of each person. The only thing I require is that your love and devotion to me equals the capacity for which I made you in the womb. And I assure you that I am pleased with your devotion and dedication to me and your unreserved response to everything I ask you to do. This is all I require. But I will tell you that love can grow throughout eternity, because the more you respond to me and my Spirit in you, the more your capacity to love me and receive my love will grow.

Now go to the remainder of your day, but keep your heart open to my Spirit's prompting you in the way of righteousness and holiness, for according to your cheerful and willing response to me will be your capacity to receive my love and spread it to others, for my love for you does not grow by holding it in your heart, but it grows and expands as you share it with those around you. And as you empty it out into other vessels, your own capacity to receive my love will widen and deepen. So you see, love is not static, and my love for you is endless, and you can have as much as you desire and need from me. You have no concept of how much I love you, because your perception of it is the only limit my love has. So open your heart to me and let me flow through you to those around you, and you will have all you need, and an increasing abundance to share with others, as well. Lovingly, Jesus.

Signs of the End

Dearest One,

I have a message for you today concerning the work that each one of you is doing for me and my Father. Our highest goal is to complete the work of the judgment so that we can bring my people home. At this time we are on schedule and so we are allowing the deterioration of society around the world to take place. The next major occurrence will be the rise in papal influence, because the new president is a devout Catholic and is already in touch with the Pope and his cabinet. The devil has cleverly kept the stealthy inroads of Catholic leadership around the world veiled in secrecy to keep my people from rousing into action, for they do not want to speak against the papacy until it is a worldwide public matter.

Unfortunately, when this finally occurs, many will succumb to it because they have already been lulled to sleep by the wily approach of the evil one; and when they are finally aroused from their slumbers they will find themselves unprepared to meet the challenge, and will go to the other churches and accept the general mores of society to not arouse the ire of both religious and political leaders, who by that time will be fully committed to keeping the peace by conciliatory methods rather than standing up for the truth.

This is illustrated by the parable of the ten virgins, and portrays exactly what will occur when the cry goes forth to worship on the day of the sun, which is an abomination to me. When this happens you will see a great movement to comply at all costs to avoid standing out above the crowd and becoming a target for ridicule and persecution. Their attitude will be the same as the people who were leaders at my crucifixion: "It is better that one man should die than for the whole nation to perish."

In a certain manner this is true, for I died so that my people could have eternal life. But the motive of those who take this position is exactly what the devil wants. He is determined to either seduce the remnant who represent my kingdom, or obliterate them from the earth. Either way, he feels he will at last win the great controversy. But I will not allow this to occur, for Satan has had his opportunity to do this in the Dark Ages. But the blood of the martyrs was the seed of reformation and revival, for my loyal people showed that those who love me would rather die than give up the truth and a place in my kingdom. This is just the opposite of those who are following Satan. They will bend to the whims of the majority, and follow the pressure of the crowd, rather than to stand for truth and integrity against the majority.

So you will soon see what will become of such people, and even in my remnant church there are those who do not really know me or the truth for which I stand. I will not yield one particle of truth to save my people from persecution, ridicule, or death, but I will not allow my precious followers to die at the hands of the demon-possessed mob. I will arise and protect my people through the dangers that lie ahead, and with my arms of love around you, you will be safe through the storm. Preach the truth is it is -- do not tremble at the wrath of the enemy. He knows even better than you do that he cannot prevail against me and touch a hair of your heads, for you are under the protection of the Almighty.

Now go to the remainder of your day, but keep connected to me at all times and never doubt my love and care for you for one moment, even if you should make a mistake in your daily walk with me. I understand that many of you are still in the cleansing and washing of your robes of character. You need never fear that I will ever leave you or forsake you, just as I have always promised my faithful followers, even through persecution and death. But you, my beloved ones, will not be called upon to die for me, for you have followed me through the final cleansing of my second apartment work, and so you will be prepared to stand through the time of trouble when there will be no work of atonement for the sins of my people, for they have gone beforehand to judgment and have been blotted out.

So stand firm and unafraid, though the lion may roar. He is a beaten foe and he knows his only hope is to deceive or destroy you. That will be a time of darkness, but angels of light from the courts of glory will be around you to protect you and bring you safely through the time of trouble until you see me face to face. Keep up your courage and faith, for the time is near, my beloved ones, and soon you will be safe at home with me. May the days hasten until that time. Lovingly, Jesus.

Gospel Perfection

Dearest One,

I want to express my love and appreciation for allowing me freedom to speak through you and Karen today with truth that is unknown to others. The simplicity of gospel perfection must be spoken in words that are understandable to all, even to children. Agreement with me and my law is the best way to express it, and although thousands of words may be added, it still comes down to oneness and agreement with me. Would you marry someone and invite them into your home and life knowing that they were not in agreement with you on key points of life and doctrine? This is exactly how I feel about allowing people into my eternal kingdom when they are in agreement with my enemy, even in the slightest degree. You can be sure that if I permitted this, there would be war in heaven all over again before long. Obviously this is not going to happen, but this way of thinking is rampant throughout my people because they do not want to make the sacrifice of being willing to die to every sinful trait and characteristic of the devil. But if you are willing to make this exchange, I will give you every precious trait of character that I won for you in my humanity while I was on my sojourn in Satan's kingdom. But how few value my gift of life and love because they are dazzled by Satan's promises of an easy way out. What a deception the devil has upon the majority of people, even those who profess to believe in me. How they long for heaven without sacrificing their own unholy traits of character! They don't realize that if I allowed sinners into heaven it would soon be like the earth has now rapidly becoming--a home for demons and a place where no one can live and have happiness.

The only happiness available is through me and the principles of my kingdom. I am so looking forward to the end of sin and the proper disposal of those who have chosen it and want to perpetuate life on earth as it is when sin and sinners reign and can do anything they want to do without interference from me and my Father. In other words, they want to use the bounties of life eternal without the character that is necessary to perpetuate it. The wages of sin is death--not just because I say so, but because sin causes death and misery. Why can't people see this by now? It is because Satan has blinded their eyes to the principles of life, and has made them think that they can have life and happiness and all the bounties that I have provided, without living in harmony with my law.

But you, my beloved ones, have come to understand these principles and are sharing it with others to the best of your ability, and I heartily approve of what you are doing for me and my kingdom. It will have its effect for eternity and bring joy forever to my Father and all the angels and beings who inhabit other worlds who have suffered by having the existence of sin in the universe. They watched me die on the cross, and they veiled their eyes from the scene. They saw demons and evil men exulting over my death. But I arose from the tomb a conqueror over sin and all it causes, and now it is time to end the suffering that sin has caused for everyone. Thank you for being a vital part of the closure by your acceptance and love and service. Please do not let anything discourage you, because we are in a war and I need for you to be brave and unshakable. The victory will soon be won over the enemy and all who follow him, and what he has done to me and all my people will soon be blotted from your memory, except for the nail prints in my hands and feet, and my riven side from whence my blood flowed for you and your salvation. Take courage, my precious bride, and march with me bravely through the trials of the end. You will be trophies of my glory that I will present to my Father. He will welcome you into the eternity of happiness that I have waiting for each of you.

Now go to the activities of the rest of the day, but keep in your mind and heart that I am just a prayer away, and my love and care for you will never waver through the days ahead, and my provisions for you will meet all your needs. Go forward with joy and peace every day, and let your heart rest in my constant love for you, even during those times where you can't feel it. That is where faith comes in and bridges the gap between you and me. Never become discouraged, because discouragement is the result of a lack of faith. You will need a faith that will not fail in the days ahead. Stand firm and see what I will do to your enemies! I assure you that it will not go well for them. But when the battle is over and the victory is won, you will be forever by my side throughout eternity. Isn't that a sufficient gift for the bride of the King? Lovingly, Jesus.

Healing of Men in the Judgment

Dearest One,

My subject today is an appeal to the women of Zion to participate with me in the healing of men from the terrible damage done in the Garden of Eden. As you can see from the scriptural account, the first reaction of Adam and Eve when they realized what they had done, was terrifying, debilitating fear. Fear of death, fear of separation from me, and fear of the unknown. This has been the experience of men and women ever since, but the damage has been the most felt by men. Man was formed to be in direct communion with me at all times, and to be by my side in rulership of his God-given domain—this earth. He was made from the soil of the earth, and his body and mental faculties were ever to be in relationship with his responsibilities to bring this world into subjection to the laws of creation so that the highest good can come from it to be a home for all living creatures. This is what I put into his mental faculties when he was created, and the remnants of this are still functioning today.

But his encounter with his defection told him that Eve was not in harmony with his leadership unless she was under submission to him, and otherwise she could not be trusted to function smoothly together with him for his calling and his goals. This has been a great tribulation for women through the centuries, but necessary until the cleansing and re-creation of women into their original position as equals by Adam's side. But this cannot happen until I reformulate the brain pathways by my love and the application of my sacrifice for the sins which caused the tragic separation from the fall in Eden.

I am the Creator and Restorer and the only hope of man's return to Eden as it was before the fall. You fell together, and now you must return together, for I did not create man separately, but in pairs to be in holy wedlock as I am with my Father. You were created in our image of two beings who function as one. This does not mean that you must be married to be restored. It does mean that you must realize the sacred union of male and female and relate to husbands, sons, brothers, or acquaintances in a manner that will release them from the prison house of fear and distrust so they can once again be powerful men of God who love and trust me so much that I can restore them to the original position of authority and leadership that I gave Adam in the beginning. This does not mean that he is to be an authority over you, but over his world -- the kingdom that I gave him in the beginning. As his equal you will be exalted in co-leadership with him, and you will rejoice in the fruit of your labors and sacrifice.

There is much more that I can say, but as you go forward in your allotted task, I will reveal more to you as you follow me, and I will teach you what to say and do that will bring mankind back to the original purpose for your creation. Take heart! You have only begun your journey back home, but the end thereof will be glorious! Lovingly, Jesus.

Step #1 - Pray for their recovery from right- brain damage.

Step #2 - Treat them with respect even when they do not deserve it. This will open the door of their minds to their original purpose and calling.

Step #3 - Pray specifically for their failings, because this is where Satan has access to them.

Step #4 - Open your heart of love for them to give me access to restore them to their original place of dignity and leadership. I will take over from there. Lovingly, Jesus.

The Gift of Prophecy

Dearest One,

My subject today is the gift of prophecy. There have been many godly people, both men and women, throughout history who have been close enough to me and sensitive to my Spirit to hear my voice when I speak to them through the avenue of the mind. These I have rewarded by drawing them close to my heart and revealing things that could not be known otherwise, and are important for all my followers who desire to know me and obey my will. In revealing the things that are on my heart, I am drawing nigh to enlighten, inspire and give direction, inspiration, and encouragement. Blessed are those who hear my voice and heed my instructions.

Throughout history I have guided my people by the inspiration I send to help them know my requirements for their time in the world's history. But not all who hear my voice and receive messages are prophets. There are various gradations of the prophetic gift. The canon of Scripture contains prophets of the highest degree who were born to receive the prophetic call and chosen and formed in the womb to be my servants. Others were highly gifted with spiritual acuity and ability to hear the inspirations of my Holy Spirit. These I have used to be spiritual leaders of my people. Would that all the spiritual leaders and teachers of my people would fall under that category.

There are also specifically chosen people who are called and gifted to hear my voice and counsel my people in a time of great importance for my church. Ellen White was the greatest of these in modern times. Her life was a life of continual service and self-sacrifice, and she prevailed through seemingly insurmountable odds to provide the light needed to take my people home. Her reward will be great in the kingdom of heaven.

Now, the reason I am writing this message to you is to encourage you to take up the cross where she laid it down and persevere to the end for me and my truth. You are blessed by having messages from me at times when I see that you need encouragement and additional light and understanding about the final cleansing and finishing the perfecting of my people. It is all in the Bible and Spirit of Prophecy, but there are times when I see that you need specific insights to clarify a point to help you continue to move forward. I am pleased with each of you and your determination to carry the torch of truth to the end regardless of the sacrifices you must make to persevere. You are standing in time where all the prophets and righteous men and women of the past would love to be.

So carry the torch of truth bravely to the end, for I am with you to support and strengthen you until the battle is over and the victory is won. It will not be long, little flock, until you are safe in my kingdom with crowns upon your brow and palm branches in your hands. In the meantime, follow me faithfully every day and listen to my instructions, and you will finish the work of all the prophets and righteous men and women who have gone before you and together you will stand on the sea of glass before my throne. Lovingly, Jesus.
