Spirit of Truth Proclamation

Thou child of quiet desperation of confusion and conflict and ensuing chaos .. I am come to raise my children of the earth unto childlike humility .. of growth in the meanings of the spiritual realities .. and of the maturing grace of character righteousness.

True and genuine inward certainty and everlasting security does not in the least fear outward analysis .. nor does truth resent honest criticism. 

You should never forget that intolerance is the mask covering up the entertainment of secret doubts as to the trueness of one’s belief. 

No man is at any time disturbed by his neighbor’s attitude when he has perfect confidence in the truth of that which he wholeheartedly believes. 

Courage is the confidence of thoroughgoing honesty about those things which one professes to believe. 

Sincere men are unafraid of the critical examination of their true convictions and noble ideals.

Where you discover the limits of your science and philosophy of intellectual pursuit...I merely begin with you in our Universe Association! 

On the second evening at The Salvington School, Juan Pablo asked Jesus Michael  this question: 

“Master, how can a new believer in your teaching really know, really be certain, about the truth of this gospel of the kingdom?”

And I, Jesus Christ Michael said to Juan Pablo of Spain: 

“Your assurance that you have entered into the kingdom family of the Father, and that you will eternally survive with the children of the kingdom, is wholly a matter of personal experience—faith in the word of truth. 

Spiritual assurance is the equivalent of your personal religious experience in the eternal realities of divine truth and is otherwise equal to your intelligent understanding of truth realities plus your spiritual faith and minus your honest doubts.

The 'Son' is naturally endowed with the life of the Father. Having been endowed with the living spirit of the Father, you are therefore sons and daughters of God. 

You survive your life in the material world of the flesh because you are identified with the Father’s living spirit, the gift of eternal life. 

Many, indeed, had this life before I came forth from the Father, and many more have received this spirit because they believed my word; but I declare that, when I return to the Father, he will send his spirit into the hearts of all women and men.

While you cannot observe the divine spirit at work in your minds, there is a practical method of discovering the degree to which you have yielded the control of your soul powers to the teaching and guidance of this indwelling spirit of the heavenly Father, and that is the degree of your love for your fellow men. 

This spirit of the Father partakes of the love of the Father, and as it dominates man, it unfailingly leads in the directions of divine worship and loving regard for one’s fellows. 

At first you believe that you are sons and daughters of God because my teaching has made you more conscious of the inner leadings of our Father’s indwelling presence; but presently the Spirit of Truth is now already poured out upon all flesh in this 21st century ever since my days of the 1st  century, and it will live amongst all men and women .. and teach all women and men, even as I now live amongst you and speak to you the words of truth. 

And this Spirit of Truth, speaking for the spiritual endowments of your souls, shall help you to know that you are the daughters and the sons of God. 

It will unfailingly bear witness with the Father’s indwelling presence, your spirit, then dwelling in all men and women as it now dwells in some, telling you that you are in reality the sons and daughters of God.

I instruct thee to understand the drama played out in the first century .. and the subsequent delivery fulfillment of my mission and its seventh bestowal necessary for my persona to advance unto the greater Universe Administration.

The first mission of this spirit is, of course, to foster and personalize truth, for it is the comprehension of truth that constitutes the highest form of human liberty.

Next, it is the purpose of this spirit to destroy the believer’s feeling of orphanhood. Jesus having been among men, all believers would experience a sense of loneliness had not the Spirit of Truth come to dwell in men’s hearts.

This bestowal of the Son’s spirit effectively prepared all normal men’s minds for the subsequent universal bestowal of the Father’s spirit (the Adjuster) upon all mankind.

In a certain sense, this Spirit of Truth is the spirit of both the Universal Father and the Creator Son.

The religion of Jesus Christ Michael is a new gospel of faith to be proclaimed to struggling humanity. This new religion is founded on faith, hope, and love.

The religion of Jesus does not seek to escape this life in order to enjoy the waiting bliss of another existence. The religion of Jesus provides the joy and peace of another and spiritual existence to enhance and ennoble the life which men now live in the flesh.

During the first century drama .. as the one hundred and twenty believers were engaged in prayer, they all became aware of a strange presence in the room. At the same time these disciples all became conscious of a new and profound sense of spiritual joy, security, and confidence.

This new consciousness of spiritual strength was immediately followed by a strong urge to go out and publicly proclaim the gospel of the kingdom and the good news that Jesus had risen from the dead.

The gospel of the kingdom is: the fact of the fatherhood of God, coupled with the resultant truth of the sonship-brotherhood of men. Christianity, as it developed from that day, is: the fact of God as the Father of the Lord Jesus Christ, in association with the experience of believer-fellowship with the risen and glorified Christ.

These believers felt themselves suddenly translated into another world, a new existence of joy, power, and glory. The Master had told them the kingdom would come with power, and some of them thought they were beginning to discern what he meant.

And when all of this is taken into consideration, it is not difficult to understand how these men came to preach a new gospel about Jesus in the place of their former message of the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of men.
