Seekers of Truth

We bring you glad tiding of joy! You have taken the first step in answers these questions and more:

  • Know the truth about whether or not God really exists!
  • Know the truth about whether or not you have a soul!
  • Learn the truth about what happens after you die.

 
How can you determine whether or not there is a God?
The answer to this is simple - pray to God for His Divine Love and wait for an answer.

Many people go through life thinking that there may be a God and some even pray to God for help in their lives. Many people who go to church "believe" that God exists. After all, that is what their family has been taught for generations. Furthermore they believe that if they follow certain doctrines and rules and regulations that they will eventually go to Heaven. All this "thinking" and "believing" is of the mind - and as everyone knows, the mind can change depending upon experience.

What if I were to tell you that you can transcend your mind and receive undeniable proof that God exists! So, what the catch?

The catch is that it will require some effort on your part - effort in terms of prayer/meditation. How much prayer and mediation? That all depends upon how strong your desire is to know the truth. For some of us the truth came after praying three times a day for several days. For others it took three weeks of daily prayers. If this sounds like too big of a commitment, compare the amount of time you will be devoting to prayer (three times a day for three weeks) compared to your entire lifetime on earth. It is but a drop in the bucket.

How will you know when the truth has been revealed to you? When God makes His Presence known to you, you will know it! The experience slightly differs from one person to the next. But everyone shares that it is a life altering experience. Some feel a burning sensation in their heart region. Others feel waves of love flowing over their body again and again. Others share that it was like a nuclear explosion going off in their body. For me, the experience was so powerful that I thought my physical body was being harmed.

God has touched many souls in this way. The truth is that He Loves you and wants you to know that He is real. The way the God communicates to us is Soul to soul. And that is why we must pray using our souls to know the truth.

Try the experiment three times a day. A good goal to shoot for is 20 minutes each session, three times a day for three weeks. Be gentle with yourself - the first few times may only last a couple of minutes, or you may skip a session or two. That's ok. Just keep at it. The more you pray the easier it will become to get into a prayerful state without distractions.

When you are ready to pray/meditate, ask God:

  • for your soul to be in ascendancy over your mind;
  • to be protected by any negative energies;
  • to be surrounded by God's Love and Light;
  • to be in rapport with God's Angels;
  • pray using the prayer perfect (below).

Our Father, who art in heaven, we recognize:

     That Thou art--art all holy and loving and merciful, and that we are the children of Thy care, and not the subservient, sinful and depraved creatures that our false teachers would have us believe.

     That we are the greatest of Thy creations and the most wonderful of all Thy handiwork's, and that we are the objects of Thy great Soul's love and tenderest care.

     That Thy will is that we become at one with Thee and partake of Thy great love which Thou hast bestowed upon us through Thy mercy and desire that we become, in truth, Thy children--and not through the sacrifice and death of any one of Thy creatures, even though the world thinks that one Thy equal and a part of Thy godhead.

     That Thou will open up our souls to the inflowing of Thy love, and that then will come Thy Holy Spirit to bring into our souls, this, Thy love in great abundance until our souls may be transformed into the very essence of Thyself; and that there may come to us faith--such faith as will cause us to realize that we are truly Thy children and that we are one with Thee in very substance and not in image only.

     Let us have such faith as will cause us to know that Thou art our Father and the bestower of every good and perfect gift, and that only we, ourselves, can prevent Thy love changing us from the mortal to the immortal.

     Let us never cease to realize that Thy love is waiting for each and all of us, and that when we come to Thee with faith and earnest aspirations, Thy love will never be withholden from us.

     Keep us in the shadow of Thy love every hour and moment of our lives, and help us to overcome all temptations of the flesh and the influence of the powers of the evil ones who so constantly surround us and endeavor to turn our thoughts away from Thee to the pleasures and allurements of this world.

     We thank Thee for Thy love and for the possibility of receiving it, and believe that Thou art our Father--the loving Father Who smiles upon us in our weakness, and is always ready to help us and take us to Thy arms of love.

     We pray thus with all the earnestness and longings of our soul, and trusting in Thy love give Thee all the glory and honor and love that our finite souls can give. Amen

How do I know the truth about whether or not I have a soul?
When you try the experiment mentioned above, God will respond with His Holy Spirit to send His Divine Love into your soul. God's Divine Love is a physical substance that actually changes the nature of our souls. When Divine Love enters into our souls, we feel It! And for the first time in our life, we will without a doubt know: 1) that we have a soul; and 2) where our souls reside in reference to our physical bodies. We won't spoil it for you and tell you where you soul is located - we will let you discover that on your own when you attempt the experiment.
 
"Gone was my belief in vibrations, abstract intelligence, cosmic force, astral bodies and other paraphernalia of a bare and cold concept; ... souls were alive, with or without the flesh, and that these souls could be changed from the image of God, as originally created, into the very Essence and Nature of God through His Divine Love. I did not have to look further. My search for God had ended."
 -- Dr. Leslie R. Stone

What happens after you die?
We have an entire book dedicated to describing what happens after you die. But in a nutshell, death is a painless and often surreal experience. You find yourself floating outside of your body with your "silver cord" no longer attached (your silver cord is what binds your physical body to your spirit body). You can see everything on earth including your home, friends and family but they cannot see or hear you. A short time after death, you are welcomed by a greeter, who may have been a family member, and taken to a beautiful place where you are reunited with friends and family who have passed before you.

After staying at the place of transition for some time to collect yourself after the transition from physical form to spirit form, you will then be attracted to a home prepared for you in the spirit world. This home and atmosphere will reflect the nature of your soul. If you have a developed soul, your home will be attractive with beautiful surroundings and much light. If, on the other hand, you were an evil person while on earth, then your home will be deplorable and in darkness.

The good news for all is that there is a law called the Law of Progression. Every soul, whether dark or light, will progress from lower states to higher states, or spheres, in the spirit world. And progression is never ending. There is no such thing as "eternal damnation". Every soul is given every opportunity to learn and grow in his/her souls progression.

In terms of soul progression, there is a choice that everyone will have to make sooner or later. That choice is to progress one's soul in the natural love or in the Divine Love. The natural love is the love that God gave humans when we were first created. It is the love that is shared between a man and wife, mother and child, father and son, etc. While originally created perfect, this love has been defiled by generations of living in disharmony with the love. As a result, it takes effort to purify our natural love to the state it once was when God first bestowed it upon mankind. Through the sharing of our love with others, the purification will result in our habitation of what is called the Natural Heavens. It is the highest place in the spirit world that one can attain to without praying for God's Divine Love. Praying for God's Divine Love involves a completely different method of soul progression. It involves God implanting His Divine Love into our souls and changing the very nature and substance of who we are. In essence, we become a part of God! Our soul forms are changed and we take on that part of God's Nature which is His Divine Love. We become immortal and at-one with God. We retain who we are as individuals - we don't lose anything in the process, except for those thoughts and tendencies which kept us out of harmony with the Love. As we pray and take on more and more of God's Divine Love we progress higher and higher in the spirit world, past the Natural Heavens and into the Celestial Kingdom. A place of indescribable beauty, peace, Love and Light.

These teaching sound similar to Christianity.
These teachings originated from God and were communicated through Jesus during his ministry on earth and in the spirit world. Jesus is not God, but a son of God just like you and I are sons and daughters of God. Jesus was the first to pray for and receive God's Love here on earth. In fact, Jesus' mission on earth was to announce the rebestowal of the potential to receive God's Love. So in that sense, these teachings may be referred to as having their roots from Jesus the Christ. These teachings do not, however, have any relationship to Old World Christianity which professes that the Jesus' death on the cross and his resurrection saves men from their sins. This belief is in error and has no foundation in the truth.

Why have these teachings been hidden so long?
The writers of the Bible who attempted to record the teachings of Jesus and his disciples hundreds of years after his death, did not fully understand the true nature of his teachings and incorporated their own beliefs into their writings. This resulted in false declarations and confusion with regard to Jesus' true mission on earth. Since that time, Jesus has been trying to break the "spirit/mortal" barrier by finding a mortal with an unbiased dispensation for spirit communication. Jesus had limited success due to the free will of the chosen instruments.

Some years ago a selection was made of a man to declare these truths, and to him much power and spiritual knowledge were given, and even the power of leaving the body and visiting the world of spirits so that he might see for himself the actual condition of things as they there existed, and to declare to mankind the results of his observations. And he did observe and declare many truths, but the difficulty in the way of his realizing the pure truth and interpreting the things which he saw, was that his mind was too much biased by what he had read and believed from the writings as contained in the Bible. And hence, his efforts failed to accomplish the great purpose intended by the mission given him. I am here referring to Emmanuel Swedenborg, the seer, as he was called.

Rather than having the mortal leave his body and travel to the spirit world, and then relate the results and interpretations of his observations, Jesus, and his celestial brethren, decided that the truths shall be declared to the mortal through words and thoughts so that no mistake or wrong interpretation can possibly occur. When Jesus happened across a man with powers sufficient, and a soul capable of development to receive these thoughts and words, he started the work of preparing the man and his soul for this great work. After many sessions and years of work, the transfer of knowledge pertaining to Jesus' true mission on earth and the Father's Gift of Divine Love was a success. The man chosen was named James Padgett.

Where do I go from here?
First, try the Great Experiment. Start praying for God's Divine Love. Specifically ask your Heavenly Father to open up your soul to the inflowing of His Divine Love. And keep asking and praying until an answer is heard, for an answer will surely come. The reception of the Divine Love is not something "of your mind". It is not simply a belief system. It is an actual substance - a real tangible substance that the Father gives to you. As you receive His Love you will have a physical sensation of some sort. For most, it feels like a burning sensation in their chest. This sensation is nothing like you have ever felt before and for the first time in your life, you will realize that you have a soul. Jesus provided a wonderful prayer that we have found most effective in opening up our souls longings to the Father's Love.

So how do you learn more?
