Jesus: I Speak to You Again
Chapter 129
My Address to the Clergymen
Now, I address those who lead prayer services, whom you call priests, pastors, imams, or rabbis. Open your souls to the Father and begin to feel His love flowing within you. When you do, the Father’s spirit dwelling within you will guide you toward the living water of the Father, awakening your soul. Don’t hold back; allow your soul to reach out freely, to leap toward awakening the souls of your parishioners. You will help them only when you free your own souls from the bondage of rituals. This liberation is eagerly awaited by millions of your brethren, including me—and the Father as well.
Did I not tell my apostles, before ascending to the Father, not to fear what to say before their judges, for the Father’s spirit would speak through them? Now I tell you the same: do not fear to open yourselves to the Father. Let His spirit speak through your lips, prompted by your awakened soul. When you open your soul to the Father, worship the way your soul desires. Do not worry if your words don’t match the ones written in prayer books. Your soul will receive the Father’s love and translate it into words that others will hear, words that will resonate with love and awaken the souls of those listening. Many will be moved to tears, tears of cleansing and renewal, and these tears will flow from the eyes of men, women, and even children.
Do not fear opening up your soul and feeling the Father within. When your soul speaks in worship and prayer, let it do so freely, without rituals, without elaborate garments, without dogma. Speak with sincerity, and your prayers will pour forth with life, filling the souls of all who are present.
Your congregation will feel the Father’s love and peace more strongly, and as they worship with you, they will feel a bliss beyond words. Do not rush away from this bliss to return to reading or giving a sermon. Stay in this state of bliss for a while. In this moment, their souls are best able to receive the Father’s words meant for each of them personally. Even if they don’t hear the words immediately, they will receive guidance, perhaps on their journey home or later, but they will be strengthened and counseled by the Father.
Do not fear the backlash from religious authorities when you break the dead rituals of traditional prayer services. I was also blamed, cursed, and accused of being possessed by the devil. But if you have opened your soul and experienced the Father’s living presence, you will know that you are walking the Father’s path, just as I did, and you will realize this path is free of rituals.
You will be strengthened by the testimonies of those who thank you for awakening their souls to a living relationship with the Father. Do not fear accusations of destroying the church. In truth, you are reviving a dead, ritualistic institution into one full of new life. And if you are cast out of the church, do not fear. I too was cast out of synagogues and persecuted, but I continued to spread the Father’s love. I will send you souls thirsting for love and truth, and together we will guide them to a living relationship with the Father, free from mediators, directly communing with Him through their open hearts.
The Father has laid this path for each of you, and I have walked it bravely, trusting Him all the way. You can also walk this path, but the decision is yours, made freely and personally. I invite you to walk this living path, and once you choose it, I will always be ahead of you, and the Father will be within you. You will never walk alone, not for a single moment. The seraphim angels will be there to assist you at every step, for it is the will of my Partner, the Co-Creator and Co-Ruler of the Universe, that her angelic children help guide you toward the Father. You will have support from all sides—within from the Father, from me, and from the Holy Spirit, and without from your angels. Every step you take on this path is celebrated by the universe.
You, as beings of free will, have the choice to live in harmony with the creation or to resist it. But remember, no one can operate outside the bounds of the Father’s love. You may choose how to interact with the world—either to build it up or to tear it down—but you cannot escape the loving field of the Father’s creation. You can influence others’ free will, but you have no power to alter the operation of the Father’s law of love. The choice to align with or resist this love is yours, but the law itself remains, unchangeable and eternal.
