Continuation of message from Jesus, Published in The Gospel of God’s Love, pages 225 – 229.
“The Bible expression that mere belief in my name is sufficient to cause the workings of miracles is entirely untrue; I never said that such belief was required, nor did I say whatsoever should be asked of the Father in my name would be given to them. I was not part of the “Godhead,” and I had not, of myself, any such power. And neither did my name have any miraculous influence with the Father. I was a man, as are other men – only I had become filled with God’s Divine Love, which made me at-One with Him; and consequently I had knowledge of His Love and laws that enabled me to bring into operation laws that would cause the desired effects. A belief in my name causes no workings of these laws, nor brings response from the Father to any supplications.
“Prayer must be made to the Father in the name of truth, and to His Love and mercy. Every individual is dear to Him, and He is ready to bestow this Love upon everyone who asks in faith and pure desire. And in response to this earnest prayer will come Love, and knowledge of things spiritual, and also power that may be used for the good of humankind.
“My name is not a mediator beteen God and humans, and neither is belief in Jesus, a means to reach the responsive soul of the Father. If humans will understand my teachings, and instead of asking in my name, ask in “the name of truth,” then such asking will have results. But so few people, when they pray to the Father, have such intention or understanding.
“Only a knowledge of the truth for human’s salvation will enable them to seek in the right way to obtain this Gift of the Father. And when I say knowledge of the plan, I do not mean that humans shall understand all minutiae of this plan; but that knowledge must be sufficient, in the beginning, to show to them that the Father is a God of Love, and that this Love may be obtained by humans through earnest prayer for its bestowal. That’s all that’s necessary; for the resopnes that will follow will cause the New Birth, which, when experienced by humans, will place them in unison with God and lead to other truths in the plan. Amen
