Writing from Luke, in The Gospel of God’s Love, page 311.
“I want to write upon the subject; “What is the most important thing for humans to do in order to bring about the great millinnium that the preachers proclaim will come before or after the “second coming” of Jesus?
“Of course, in stating the question thus, I do not intend to be understood as consenting to the doctrine that Jesus will come to earth in physical form, on the clouds with a great shout, etc, as many of the preachers teach. That event will never happen, because, as we have written you, he has already come to earth in the spiritual way that we have explained. Neither do I intend to embrace in the phrase “the most important thing,” for that, of course is the divine love – the most important on earth and in the heavens as well. But by that expression I mean the most important thing that humans can do, independently of the assistance of the divine love from God in answer to prayer.
“As commonly understood, the “millennium” is a period of one thousand years when peace shall reign on earth, and when the devil, as is said, will be bound, and will not be permitted to roam over the earth, causing the devastation of souls and the sickness and other sins that now beset mortals. Of course, there is no personal “devil,” in the sense of a satanic majesty; but there are spirits of evil which abound in the unseen world, and which are constantly with mortals, exercisiing upon them their influence of evil, and suggesting to them thoughts and desires that eventuate in sinful deeds. But these evil ones are merely the spirits of departed mortals, and are not beings of a superior kind, in power or other qualities.
“Sin, as we have told you, was never created by God, nor is it the product or emanation of any of God’s perfect creations, but is wholly the result of the wrongful exercise of human’s appetites and will, where the desires of the flesh are permitted to overcome the desires of their spiritual nature. With sin comes all the evil and discords and inharmonies that constitute human’s present maner of living their earth life; and until these things are elliminated from their thoughts and desires and appetites, the millinnium will never be established on earth.” To be continued…
