Jesus: I Speak to You Again

Chapter 60

Deliver Yourselves from the Dead Rituals

It is you alone who hold the power over your own future. Your soul longs for that future—a future the Father has prepared for each of you. I am here to help guide you, so that after reading these teachings, you can begin a living communion with the Father, directly and personally, without the need for priests or any other mediators.

By taking this step, you will begin to free yourself from the captivity of rituals and dogmas that have entrapped your mind. It is sad, but true, that many of your spiritual leaders today, adorned in their expensive, gold-laden ceremonial robes, are spiritually blind. They may not be physically blind, but their souls lack true vision. Because of their spiritual blindness, they fail to be the kind of spiritual leaders who can guide others with the inner light of truth, even though they loudly call upon my name.

Therefore, it is up to you to take the initiative and seek out spiritual leaders who, like you, shine with the inner light—leaders who are not bound by the outward trappings of ritual but are radiant from within, just as I was when I walked among you in human form. I was not desired by those who claimed exclusive rights to teach others about God. According to their beliefs, I had no authority to speak about God, for I had not studied in their rabbinical academies, which they themselves had invented. Only those who had graduated from these institutions were deemed worthy to explain God to the people.

Is it any different today? Are your priests not also captives of teachings created by human beings? Can you not see that God is boundless, that His manifestation is infinite? Do you truly believe that books written by people centuries ago can fully capture the soul of a modern, creative, and searching individual? Can any book remain eternally relevant, revealing all aspects of God’s truth, even as new dimensions of God’s presence are discovered in the world around you?

Why do you continuously update and refine your scientific research, inventions, and discoveries, yet cling stubbornly to stagnant concepts of God? Why do you allow scientific knowledge to grow and expand, but refuse to grant the same growth to your understanding of God? You are inconsistent, treating the so-called Holy Scriptures in a one-sided manner, even though they are filled with footnotes offering different interpretations of the same ideas. Is this not already a form of supplementing and altering the texts you consider sacred?

You fail to notice these variations but are quick to judge those who share new insights about the Scriptures, about me, and about God. You judge harshly, labeling them as wrong, misled by evil, possessed by demons, destined for hell, or impostors who do not understand anything about God.

This is why I give you these teachings. I know they too will be attacked by many, who will claim that they mislead and distort the truth. Two thousand years ago, I was called a child of Beelzebub and Satan by those who could not see the light of the Father or feel His love. But those who were sincere, those who truly sought God, believed and were spiritually resurrected after death. They continue to progress in my universe, growing in their understanding of God, their Father.

There is so much more I wish to share with you about the Father, but you are not yet ready to fully grasp His deeper truths and light.
