Law of Compensation is Removed by Divine Love

I am here, your own true Helen

You didn’t think I could change the announcement of my coming, but you must know that I can do anything to please you, my dear Ned.

Yes, you have, and I have been so very happy. Well, sweetheart, I must tell you that I am very happy and am progressing very rapidly. I don’t expect to remain in this sphere very much longer, for my love and faith are so great that I feel that I must get closer to God’s Fountainhead in the Celestial Spheres. Doesn’t it seem like some fairy dream? But it is all true, and I am so happy.

I will soon be with you in a long letter, telling you of this Great Love, and how much I love God and you.

You are progressing, too. You may not realize it, but it is true. And if you should come over now, you would be surprised to find yourself in a high sphere. I know how you feel, but you must believe that I can see your spiritual condition better than you can.

When you get this Great Love in your heart in sufficient abundance - and you have much of It now - your sins will be blotted out. This is the Law of Regeneration.

Otherwise, the man who continues without this Love and the man who receives It would be in the same condition, and the New Birth would mean nothing. So do not think that this Great Love is not sufficient to cleanse the soul from the results of the sins of earth life. Best of all, it cleanses while you are a mortal.

I know that the Spiritualists quote and proclaim the Law of Recompense, or Compensation, but there is a higher law that nullifies that law. And when Love - this Divine Love - comes into the soul of a mortal, the Law of Compensation is removed from the scope of its working for Love is the fulfilling of the law.

So do not let that stumbling block make you believe that this Great Love is not sufficient to remove all sin and error and to purify your soul so that you may become fitted to live in the Kingdom of the Father and become one with Him.

No, the Love is for the vilest sinner and no man, by a mere act of restoration, can fit himself for the inflowing of this Divine Love. It is waiting for the sinner as well as for the saint. And even though your sins be as scarlet, they will be made white as wool. I mean that you will not have to wait to make recompense to mortals before this Great Love can do the cleansing work. Else, what is the use of having this Great Love provided for man? If he shall first make himself pure, what is the necessity for the work of the Holy Spirit?

Only pray for this Love and have faith, and you will get It. God is the Judge of what a man shall do to render justice and restitution. And when He says that this Divine Love, with all Its cleansing power, is for the sinner who seeks for It by true faith, who has the right to say that the sinner must first do what man may think is justice between himself and his fellowman?

I know whereof I speak for the experiences of many spirits who have been redeemed by this Love show that they were sinners, and had not “paid the last farthing” when they received this Love. God is the Judge, not mortals or spirits.

So, my dear Ned, do not let the idea that you must render to every man that which you think he may be entitled to keep you from believing in the Mercy and Love of the Father.

Oh, how I wish I could be with you a little while in my bodily form and tell you face to face what this Great Love means to you and to me, and to all of us.

So sweetheart, believe me when I say that, even though you may be a great sinner, yet the Father’s Love is sufficient to remove all those sins just as soon as you can receive It. Such is the law of this Great Love.

Faith and prayer can open the very heart of the Celestial Spheres, and

Love will flow down into your soul
As the avalanche of snow,
That feels the warmth of the sun’s bright rays
Rushes from its mountain heights,
When winter leaves with its chilling gloom
And blasting breath for other climes.

Love is not only warmth, but It is the very burnings of the soul’s great storehouse of God’s Divine Essence.

I am not only the possessor of this Love to a large degree, but I also realize that, as I advance to higher spheres, there is a greater abundance awaiting to fill my soul with Its great, undying fires of never ending burnings - but burnings so great and free from everything that makes for unhappiness and discontent.

So, my own dear and precious Ned, love me as I love you, and we both will be so very happy that Heaven will be with us, and in us, even while we are writing in the earth surroundings.

Your own Helen

A Soulmate Explains the Importance of Receiving God's Divine Love

Yes, we will love our parents and children just as much as on earth, but they will not need our love so much, as they will have their own soulmates to love them. We will visit them and be visited by them, and enjoy their society even more than when on earth.

They will love us very much, but the love that makes two souls one will exist only for the soulmates. God's Love will not interfere with that - I mean our love for God. It is of a kind that is different from our love for each other and is of a more spiritual and Holy nature.

I am so very much pleased to see that you are getting more of His Love in your heart each day, and soon you will do the work that the Master has laid out for you to do.

Yes, I am going to try to progress into the higher planes, and hope to do so as rapidly as is possible, but you may rest assured that no matter what plane I may be in, my love for you will not lessen, and I will not cease to be with you as I now am.

The life in the higher spheres without you would not be complete - you are necessary to my complete happiness. God has decreed that two soulmates are intended to make one complete whole, and they must, in order to be wholly happy and to fulfill the laws of His Love, live together forever as one. Yes, I know, because I have asked your grandmother and she has told me.

You can progress on earth just as rapidly as I can here, if you will let God's Love come into your heart as fully and as abundantly as I do; and you can if you will only pray to the Father. He does not require the child of His care to be in the spirit world in order to develop his soul.

You have the same soul now that you will have when you come here, and if you let God fill it with His Love while you are on earth, why should it not progress as much as it does here? God does not intend to wait until you come over here that He may give you the full enjoyment of His Holy Spirit. It all depends upon you.

If you truly and sincerely seek His Love, you will get it on earth just as easily as you can get it after you have thrown off the body. The Love of God coming into the soul of a man does not depend upon whether he is in the flesh or in the spirit.

All souls must answer for the sins done in the body, but it is not necessary that such penalties be paid in the spirit world - you can pay the penalty while on earth. As you sow so shall you reap, but the reaping is not necessarily here.

If you seek earnestly for God's grace and Love you can obtain them on earth, and I am informed that when they are obtained on earth, greater will be the progress of the spirit when it comes over. So let me pray you to seek these blessings while you are in your present life and not wait for them to be given to you after you have entered the spirit world.

Your grandmother says that she had that experience, and when she came here, she entered the third heaven, without going through a period of expiation or purification in the lower spheres. She is a wonderfully bright and pure spirit, and is very close to God, and has so much of His Love in her soul that her countenance really seems an illuminated face.

She is in a condition of almost perfect Love and peace, though she says that she is striving for a higher plane and a closer at-onement with her Heavenly Father. She is the one who can help you in your spiritual progress more than all others, except Jesus, who is the grandest and most glorious spirit in all the Heavens.

Let your thoughts be of a pure and holy kind, and you will soon realize that God's Love is in your soul to a degree that will make you feel that He is your own near and dear Father. Do not doubt His Love, or that He can come to you through the Holy Spirit, for that is His messenger of Love, and it will never refuse to come into a man's heart and soul, where the desire exists to have it come, by earnest sincere prayer for its inflowing.

To be continued... )

Holy Spirit - What It Is

The Holy Spirit is that part of God's Spirit that manifests His presence and care in conveying to our souls His Divine Love.

This Love is the highest and greatest and most holy of His possessions, and can be conveyed to us only by the Holy Spirit; and this appellation is used in contradistinction to the mere spirit, which demonstrates to us the operation of God's Soul in other directions and for other purposes.

God’s creative spirit, and His caring spirit, and the spirit that makes effective His laws and designs in the governing of the universe, are not the Holy Spirit, though equally part of God's Soul, and equally necessary for the manifestations of His powers and the exercise of the energies of His Soul.

These deal with the things of the universe that do not have interrelationship with the Soul of God and our souls, and whenever the Holy Spirit is spoken of it should mean only that part of God's Spirit which transforms our souls into the Substance of the Soul of God in its Quality of Love.

The Holy Spirit, while a part of the Spirit of God, is as distinctive as is our souls distinctive from all other creations of God; yet it is that part of God's Spirit that has to do with the relationship of God's Soul and our souls, exclusively.

The subject of its operation is the Divine Love of the Father's Soul and the object of its workings is our souls, and the great goal to be reached by its operations is the transforming of each of our souls into the Substance of the Father's Love, with immortality as a necessary accompaniment.

This is the great miracle of the universe; and so high and sacred and merciful is the transformation, that we call that part of God's Spirit that so works, the Holy Spirit.

Its mission is our salvation in the sense of bringing our souls into that harmony with God, that our very souls will become a part in substance and not in image merely of the Soul of God, and without this working of the Holy Spirit we cannot become in such union.

Except we be born again, we cannot enter into the Kingdom of God, and such attainment is possible only by the working of the Holy Spirit.

The Holy Spirit.

A Personal Prayer for Divine Love

This is a modified version of the Prayer for Divine Love, which makes it more personal. May your soul receive an abundance of God's Divine Love today, tomorrow and forevermore.

* * *

Dear Father, who art in Heaven,

I recognize that thou art all holy and loving and merciful, and that I am a child of Thy care and not a subservient, sinful and depraved creature that false teachers would have me believe. That I am the greatest of Thy creation, and the most wonderful of all Thy handiworks, and the object of Thy great Soul's Love and tenderest care.

That Thy will is that I become at-one with Thee and partake of Thy great Love, which Thou hast bestowed upon me through Thy mercy and desire that I become, in truth, Thy child, through Love and not through the sacrifice and death of any one of Thy creatures.

I pray that Thou will open up my soul to the inflowing of Thy love, and that then will come Thy Holy Spirit to bring into my soul, this, Thy Love in great abundance until my soul may be transformed into the very essence of Thyself. And that there may come to me faith, such faith as will cause me to realize that I am truly Thy child and that I am one with Thee in very substance and not in image only.

Let me have such faith as will cause me to know that Thou art my Father, and the bestower of every good and perfect gift, and that only I can prevent Thy Love changing me from the mortal to the immortal.

Let me never cease to realize that Thy Love is waiting for me, and that when I come to Thee with faith and earnest aspirations, Thy Love will never be withholden from me.

Keep me in the shadow of Thy Love every hour and moment of my life, and help me to overcome all temptations of the flesh and the influence of the powers of the evil ones, who so constantly surround me and endeavor to turn my thoughts away from Thee to the pleasures and allurements of this world.

I thank Thee for Thy Love and for the privilege of receiving it, and I believe that Thou art my Father, the loving Father who smiles upon me in my weakness, and is always ready to help me and take me to Thy arms of love.

I pray, thus, with all the earnestness and longings of my soul, and trusting in Thy Love give Thee all the glory and honor and love that my finite soul can give.

Prayer for Divine Love

Our Father, who art in Heaven, we recognize that thou art all holy and loving and merciful, and that we are Thy children and not the subservient, sinful and depraved creatures that our false teachers would have us believe. That we are the greatest of Thy creations and the most wonderful of all Thy handiworks, and that we are the objects of Thy great Soul's Love and tenderest care.

That Thy will is that we become at one with Thee and partake of Thy great Love which Thou hast bestowed upon us through Thy mercy and desire that we become, in truth, Thy children, through Love and not through the sacrifice and death of any one of Thy creatures.

Let us have such faith as will cause us to know that Thou art our Father and the bestower of every good and perfect gift, and that only we, ourselves, can prevent Thy Love changing us from the mortal to the immortal.

Let us never cease to realize that Thy Love is waiting for each and all of us, and that when we come to Thee with faith and earnest aspirations, Thy Love will never be withholden from us.

Keep us in the shadow of Thy Love every hour and moment of our lives, and help us to overcome all temptations of the flesh and the influence of the powers of the evil ones who so constantly surround us and endeavor to turn our thoughts away from Thee to the pleasures and allurements of this world.

We thank Thee for Thy Love and for the privilege of receiving it, and believe that Thou art our Father, the loving Father who smiles upon us in our weakness, and is always ready to help us and take us to Thy arms of Love.

We pray, thus, with all the earnestness and longings of our soul, and trusting in Thy Love give Thee all the glory and honor and Love that our finite souls can give.

* * *

This is the only prayer that we need offer to the Father. It is the only one that appeals to the Love of the Father, and with the answer, which will surely come, will come all the blessings that we may need, and which the Father sees are for the good of His creatures.

Prayer for Divine Love.
