from Jesus:
My beloved friend, it is
precisely because of people like you that I chose to embody on this
war-torn planet and go through the trial of my crucifixion and death.
I came here moved by compassion for people who are so trapped in a certain
state of consciousness that they experience life as a continual string
of suffering and pain. My heart cried out for such souls, it cried out
for the opportunity to take on a physical body on this planet in order
to help souls like you free themselves from all suffering and pain.
In order to fully help other people, I had to gain some measure of experience
for what they are experiencing. I had to know what they are going through,
and I could do so only by experiencing the situation from inside a physical
body. Contrary to the popular belief held by many Christians, the incarnation
they recognize as mine, 2,000 years ago, was not my first lifetime on
this planet. And contrary to the belief held by many of those who recognize
that I had prior lifetimes, I did not have only positive incarnations.
I had to experience suffering and pain, and I can assure you that there
are few elements of the human experience that I have not gone through
personally. Indeed, it was precisely because I have experienced everything
that I was chosen to be the soul to embody as the savior known as Jesus
Christ.
So I hope you can sense my deep compassion for your soul and for the
suffering that you have experienced in this lifetime. I also hope you
will recognize with your outer consciousness that while I can empathize
with your suffering, I am a spiritual teacher, and as such it is my
role and my privilege to help you rise above that suffering rather than
to make you feel like there is no way out. I also hope you will recognize
with your outer consciousness that the reason why you felt impelled
to send me your story is that your soul truly has a desire to escape
the suffering. If your soul did not have this desire, you would never
have sent your story to me.
So the question now becomes what you and I can do to help you move out
of the suffering and pain that you have experienced. Therefore I must
tell you, although it might seem insensitive to you, that the first
step towards moving forward is to recognize that it is not your outer
circumstances, or even the inner circumstances of your illness, that
cause your suffering and pain. Your suffering and your pain are inner
experiences, and they take place in the realm of your mind and emotions.
Therefore, that is the only place where you can find relief.
If you will earnestly study the teachings on this website, especially
in the teaching
section, you might come to a deeper understanding of the importance
of free will and the stark reality that when God gave people free will,
he gave them the ability to create their separate “reality.”
You say that God is the supreme being of the universe and that he has
created every aspect of your situation. You say that God is the one
who has inflicted suffering and pain upon you for every moment of your
life. I must tell you with brutal honesty that this is an illusion.
God has not created your situation and God has not inflicted pain and
suffering upon you. Your outer situation is a product of a very complex
process that was created by yourself and many other human beings, in
fact by humankind as a whole. Over a very long period of time, human
beings have created a situation on planet Earth that is so far from
God’s original intention and design that it almost defies description.
It is precisely this false reality that causes many people to experience
a life filled with suffering and pain
I fully recognize that what you have gone through in your lifetime is
a string of experiences that no human being would consider pleasant.
I fully recognize that most souls, myself included, would experience
suffering and pain under such circumstances. Nevertheless, the question
remains whether you want to continue the suffering of whether you are
willing to do something to change the equation of your life?
If you are indeed willing to do something to change your life, then
I must tell you that the process must begin with a change of consciousness,
a change of heart. You must be willing to change the way you look at
life, the way you look at yourself and the way you look at God. You
must be willing to stop seeing yourself as a victim of circumstances
beyond your control and admit that no matter how difficult your outer
situation is, and I fully realize that yours is extremely difficult,
there is still something you can do to improve the situation.
You describe how you surrendered yourself entirely unto God and asked
him to take your life. As a spiritual teacher it is my duty to tell
you that this was not a true surrender unto God. Throughout history,
millions of people have committed suicide in an attempt to escape the
pain and suffering of difficult situations. What you call a surrender
to God was another attempt to escape a difficult situation through death.
I highly commend you for not committing suicide, nevertheless I must
tell you that asking God to take your life is also an attempt to escape.
If you will study my life, you will see that there were many situations
in which I surrendered myself completely unto God and the will of God.
The true meaning of surrender is that you are willing to change yourself,
meaning that you are willing to change your beliefs, your attitude and
the way you look at life, in order to bring yourself into alignment
with the reality of God.
What happens to many people is that they get themselves into a crisis
situation. Yet because they are not willing to take responsibility for
their lives and admit that they themselves had an influence on creating
the situation, they do not see any way out, and therefore they want
to end their life. In reality, and I know this will sound harsh to people
in difficult situations but it is nevertheless the truth about life,
there is always a way out. Ending your physical life simply will not
end the suffering of your soul.
The only thing that can end the suffering of your soul is that you change
yourself, that you change the way you look at life, the way you approach
life. To end this suffering you must be willing to change yourself,
and this is the true meaning of surrender.
It is not the outer circumstances that cause people to experience pain.
What causes all suffering is that people have developed an attitude,
a belief system, a world view which causes them to feel attached to
something. It is the attachment that causes the suffering. As long as
the attachment continues to exist, the suffering will continue. Therefore,
the only way to break the negative spiral of pain and suffering is to
surrender the attachment.
I recognize that your life has been extremely difficult, far more difficult
than most human beings have experienced. Yet I must tell you that many
other people have experienced lives that were fully as difficult as
yours. I must also tell you that many of these people felt as angry
and rejected by God as you feel. I must also tell you that most of those
people refused to take responsibility for the situation. They refused
to even consider that the situation might to a large degree be created
by themselves.
I know you will say, how can this be possible since I was so burdened
from birth? The answer is that you did not create your current situation
in this lifetime. It was created over many lifetimes, and that is why
it is so extremely important for truly spiritual people to understand
and acknowledge the reality
of reincarnation. If you do not acknowledge reincarnation, you have
no way to resolve your anger against God. If you do not acknowledge
reincarnation, you will continue to feel as a helpless victim of circumstances
beyond your control. You will continue to blame some outer power, and
I can assure you that millions of people blame God for all of their
suffering and pain. This will paralyze you.
When people are not willing to change themselves, they look for a scapegoat.
God is the ultimate scapegoat, and when you blame God for your suffering,
you think there is nothing you could do to change the situation. This
belief is a fallacy, and I can tell you where it comes from. It comes
from the Devil himself. The goal of the Devil is to set himself up as
a false God on Earth. The Devil himself wants to be recognized as a
superior power, and he attempts to attain this position by controlling
human beings. Therefore, I will go along with your sense that some superior
power is inflicting your pain and suffering, as long as we can agree
that it is not the true God who is inflicting the suffering. Instead,
it is a false god, the god of this world, the prince of this world.
He has inflicted much of the suffering upon you, but he has done so
only because you have allowed him to take over and control your life.
I must assure you that the true God will respect your free will, whereas
the Devil has no respect for your free will whatsoever. I must assure
you that the true God would never inflict suffering upon you, yet because
he has given you free will, he will allow you to inflict suffering upon
yourself. He will also allow you to surrender yourself to the forces
of this world, and they will inflict suffering upon you. Yet the suffering
that they inflict upon you is a product of the fact that you have chosen
to surrender yourself, to surrender your will, to them through the attachments
you have to this world.
Now my question to you is simple: Do you want to continue to suffer
as you have suffered so far, or are you willing to change yourself in
order to move out of the suffering and pain?
If you are willing to change yourself, then I can assure you that I
will help you, but you must understand that I cannot and will not violate
my Father's Law of Free Will. So far, you have, through your attachments,
kept yourself in a state of suffering. By the fact that you have sent
this letter, you have shown a willingness to change course and allow
me to help you.
My beloved friend, if you will let me enter your heart, I will indeed
help you turn your life around. I will indeed help you change your consciousness
until you can begin to see that the true God is a God of love. In reality,
the true God of this universe has an unconditional, an infinite love,
for your soul. He has no other desire but to see you receive and accept
the unconditional love that he has for you as the most beautiful and
unique soul that he has created out of himself.
I understand that it is impossible for you to accept God’s unconditional
love in your current state of consciousness. I understand that you have
gone through much suffering and that you need much healing before you
could possibly accept the love of God. Nevertheless, I can assure you
that no matter the difficulties of your current situation and life,
it is possible for you to rise above it. However, it is possible only
if you are willing to surrender the attachments to your outer situation,
the attachments to your inner situation, the attachments to your pain
and suffering, the attachment to your image of God as an angry God who
desires to punish you and make you suffer. If you are willing to go
through this healing process, then I am more than willing to help you
every step of the way.
If you are willing to go through this process, then make the effort
to study the teachings I give on this website. Apply the techniques
I give for spiritual protection,
for transforming negative
energy and for attuning to my heart and to your
Christ self. Apply these techniques and contemplate my words on
this website.
And if you are truly willing to change your life, then I recommend that
you read and absorb the book, The
Christ Is Born in You. If you are willing to truly change your life,
if you are willing to read this book, then please e-mail your address
to my messenger, and I will have him send you a free copy of the book.
I am indeed your older brother, Jesus Christ, and I love you as one
of my own. If you will let me enter your life and heart, I will help
you find your way home.
