I AM HERE. Jesus.
I have been with you part of the time as you were reading the
different explanations of the various religions,*
and tried to direct your mind so that you might conceive the difference between
the things taught in those teachings and what we are revealing to you. Many
things that are set forth in those teachings, that are mysteries and the results
of speculation, will be revealed to you in their true existence and meaning, so
that all defects that arise because of the insufficiency of these teachings will
be corrected and supplied. I am glad that you read these sermons, for they
demonstrate to you a number of truths that were known to the ancients, but which
fall far short of the Truth. At those times, there was no source from which our
Truths could come, either in the spirit world or in the mortal world; hence,
humans could not become inspired as to the vital Truths that we are revealing.
The men who appeared as reformers and gave forth the truths that
were unknown to their fellowmen were inspired by the intelligences of the spirit
world. But that inspiration could not be greater or higher than the knowledge of
the spirits by whom these men were inspired. And what I say here applies not
only to the prophets and teachers of the Old Testament times, but also to those
of all times, and among all races, preceding my coming to earth and making known
the great Truths which were revealed to me by the Father.
I noticed that some of these teachers and writers of essays at the
great religious gathering attempted to speak of a future, or world, religion,
and their claims were divergent, but were based mostly on those foundations that
will never support such a religion. They based their concepts almost entirely on
the principles of morality, as understood by them. And the churches based their
beliefs on the teachings of the New Testament, which, in many and vital
particulars, are erroneous, especially the basic one that I am God, the Son, and
that my “vicarious atonement” and “sacrifice” must be the touchstone of the
future great and ultimate religion. Well, as their claims are not true, it is
certain that any religion based upon them cannot be true or lasting.
THERE WILL BE A RELIGION OF THE FUTURE, AND A COMPREHENSIVE AND
FINAL ONE; AND IT WILL BE FOUNDED UPON THE TRUTHS WHICH YOU ARE NOW RECEIVING,
FOR IT WILL BE INCLUSIVE OF ALL THE OTHER RELIGIONS, SO FAR AS THE TRUTHS THAT
THEY CONTAIN ARE CONCERNED, WITH THE ADDITION OF THE GREATEST OF ALL TRUTHS
AFFECTING MORTALS—THE NEW BIRTH AND TRANSFORMATION OF THE HUMAN SOUL INTO THE
DIVINE. WHEN MEN SHALL COME TO MAKE A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF THESE EXISTING
RELIGIONS AND THE ONE THAT I SHALL MAKE KNOWN, THERE WILL BE VERY LITTLE
CONFLICT IN THE VITAL PRINCIPLES, AND MY TEACHINGS WILL ONLY ADD TO THE OLD
TEACHINGS THAT WHICH ALL MEN CAN ACCEPT.
Hence, you see the importance of our working more rapidly in our
efforts to disclose and disseminate the Truth. I will come in a few nights and
deliver another formal message, and others will come also and write to you. Many
of the Celestial spirits are qualified to teach the Truths of the Father, and
they are ready and anxious to do so.
I will not write more now; but, with my love and blessings, I will
say good night.
I am with you, as I promised, and will continue to be.
Your brother and friend,
JESUS.

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.
