I AM HERE. Jesus.

Well, my brother, I am glad to tell you that your communion with the Father tonight has been responded to. His Love has inflowed into your soul in great abundance, and your soul is now filled with It. And the influence of this Great Love is working in your soul and you realize Its presence. If you will meditate and long for and pray to the Father, as you have tonight, your soul will soon be so filled with this Love that you will receive the knowledge that you have a near At-onement with Him. And you will be conscious of the possession of a part of His Divinity, of which we have written you. The Pentecostal shower will come to you as it did to my disciples in the days that followed my departing from them. And I will also be with you, just as I was with them; and Power and Essence Divine will be bestowed upon you so that you will be able to display the marvelous presence of this Love, just as they were able. So, you must pray, and long, and your experience tonight has given you some foretaste of what will come to you.

There is nothing in all the world that can take the place of this Love in Its power to draw you near to, and make you in At-onement with, the Father. All beliefs and faiths in any and every other thing will not suffice. Sacrifice and sorrow on account of sin, and vicarious sufferings, and mediators, will not work the transformation, because it is solely a conjunction between this Divine Love and your soul that is capable of bringing you into this relationship to the Father, with the resultant consciousness that you have partaken of, and possess to some extent, His Divine Nature in Love.

Now you are in condition that makes my rapport with you complete, and I have that possession of your brain that enables me to write as I may desire. I know that I could convey a message to you tonight in a most satisfactory way, but I will not do so; for I think it best to permit the rapport to become a little more intense, and thus enable me to write a long message without the probability of tiring you. For, as you know, these messages of deep Truths, such as the ones on the “soul” and “God”,^[1] necessarily cause me to draw very intensely on your brain power. But soon, now, I will come and commence to deliver my messages, and will continue to do so if our rapport can be maintained. And it can be if you will only meditate and pray as you have done tonight.

I have been with you very much today, entering into your thoughts and endeavoring to influence the longings of your soul. I was with you at the Spiritualist’s meeting and, sometime, I will write to you in reference to the claims of the speaker, and of the real facts as to how much of what she said was inspired, or, as she claims, was spoken through her by a controlling spirit.

I now want you to think more than ever of the importance of your work, and of the necessity for you putting all your energies and desires into the work. No one can conceive of what it means. But, above all, you must realize its great importance and the place that you occupy in carrying it to a successful issue.

I will be with you very often, and I know that you will feel my presence and influence. And, as you do, turn all your thoughts to the Father’s Love, and let all your longings go to Him.

Tonight, I will not write more, but will soon write as I have said. Have faith and know that you have been selected to do the work, and that upon you rests the responsibility that is upon no other man.

With my love and the Father’s Blessings, I will say good night.

Your brother and friend,

JESUS.
