I AM HERE. James, the Lesser.
I come because most of the apostles have written to you, and I want to be in the
number who testify that Jesus is the living and true son of God, and that he has
selected you—and also your friend*—to do his work.
I know that this has been told to you by many spirits; yet I want to add my
testimony. For the time may come when you will meet such unbelief and skepticism
that you will need all the testimony that you can get.
The work that you will have to do will not be an easy one. You will have many
antagonists, especially in the churches and among the preachers and rulers of
the churches, and you will need all the help that the spirit powers can give
you.
I am one of the band of Celestial spirits that will sustain and help you in your
work, and I am so interested that you shall succeed that I want you to know the
fact that back of you both is the most wonderful power that has ever been given
to mortals to carry out the plans of the higher Celestial World.
When on earth, I was the brother of Jesus, and called “the Lesser” to
distinguish me from James, the brother of John and the son of Zebedee. I was not
the son of any Alphaeus, such as that name is understood in the New Testament,
but the son of Mary and Joseph, as was my brother Jesus. Jesus, himself, will
one day come and tell you exactly who Alphaeus was.
So, have faith, and believe what we write to you, for it is all true. You must
not doubt, as you do sometimes, or let your earthly affairs turn your thoughts
from the great Truths which we come to teach you.
So, without writing more, I will say, believe!
Your brother in Christ,
JAMES, THE LESSER.

About James E. Padgett
 Born August 25, 1852, Mr. James Edward Padgett
practiced law in Washington, D.C. Subsequent to his wife's, Helen,
passing in February, 1914, James learned from a psychic that he had
the gift of automatic writing. Based on the promptings of the
psychic and with a desire to reach his dearly departed Helen, he
commenced take messages from the spirits in the spirit world. At
first, James denounced the messages as merely coming from his mind,
driven by a strong desire to reach his departed wife. Eventually,
however, James could not deny the fact that information he was
receiving could not have possibly come from his own mind - for the
content of the messages surpassed his own education and knowledge.
Before his passing in March, 1923, James had accumulated hundreds of
messages from spirits and celestials in the spirit world.
