Dear brother in the Christ Love, Tom,

On this Divine Love Fellowship Forum we follow the teachings of Jesus as he conveyed them through J.E. Padgett between the years 1914 and 1923. He has explained that he came to proclaim and exemplify the Gift of God's Divine Love available to the souls of His beloved children. The Way that we can receive the Gift is to pray for the Grace of God's Divine Love to flow into our souls.

Jesus told his followers that all the so-called miracles which he performed, we would also be able to do with God's Substance of Love in our souls. In other words, we have the 'soul potential' to become Divine Beings - Christs, as Jesus exemplified in his life on earth. Everyone can pray for God's Love and elevate the condition of their soul. It's an ongoing process which continues even after we become spirits.

We create our own destiny through our desires and free will choices. We can develop our relationship with our Creator and receive His transforming Love into our souls in several ways, they all require sincerity, humility, and soulful longings; desire to become at-One with your Heavenly Father, strive to do God's will in your daily living (His will is that we become at-One with Him in Love) desire to be baptized by the Holy Spirit (the Holy Spirit's only purpose is to convey God's Grace - Divine Love - to the soul of the prayerful child). Pray to know The Truth and the truth shall set you free.

We are so very blessed to know that God Loves all humankind with a never-ending Love. A Love so great and all encompassing that the human mind cannot grasp the scope of Its magnitude and inclusion of everyone, everywhere. We realize that some souls have not found God and His wondrous Gift. We understand that they choose to believe in, or become influenced by less than loving friends or spirits. It is a free will decision each and every individual soul needs to make for him and herself.

God bless you, dear friend. I sincerely hope you will try the Great Experiment and pray for God's Gift of Divine Love. I hope that you will ask the angels to portect you from lower spirit influences and that you will keep trying and praying until you feel God's Love flowing into your soul.

Your sister in the Christ Love, Kathryn

Dear Tom,

I've read this poem & others that you have shared with us. It appears to me that you have an orthodox Christian perspective from which you write. Some of us have had our roots in traditional Christianity as you share some common ground with several of us.

I am writing this first from my heart as I wish not to offend you or demean anything that you have written. It is apparent to me that you possess a real talent as a poet & appear to love the Lord.

Kathryn spoke briefly about our authority of truth as contained in several volumes of inspirational writings written by James Padgett in the early part of the century.

In these writings, another perspective is offered about Jesus, as it was not our Heavenly Father's intention or will that Jesus be slain or become a ransom sacrifice for man's sin. In these inspirational writings, new light on Jesus' mission is brought to light as it was his life & what he personified as the first fruits of the New Covenant, that is spoken to.

This and many other revelations are disclosed that are a radical departure from orthodoxy. You may want to study further these works as you may better understand our perspective on this & many other topics.

Some of the information may appear radical as we suggest that the seeker pray for God's Love to come into their souls & open up one's soul's perceptions with which to ascertain & study the many revelations in Padgett's writings. Perhaps in this way, new perceptions & understandings may come to you that heretofore may have appeared as false teachings.

Again, I present this in the spirit of love & humility for your further edification.

Your loving brother in Christ,

Dan Bowman

Dear Tom,

I don't know if you understand why some of your poems are being deleted (repeatedly) from this DLF Forum. And in fact, I really know absolutely nothing about you, except the fact that you're a poet and apparently an Orthodox Christian. After 10 days of your participation in this fellowship, I have to conclude that, beyond your poetry, you're not interested in sharing anything about yourself, nor are you interested in learning about the other members of the forum.

Unfortunately that leaves your posts looking pretty much like a form of religious proselytizing, which activity is not permitted in this forum.

We wish you well, and hope you've taken the opportunity to read a bit from the vast resources available at the links associated with this forum. Perhaps someday we'll have the opportunity to talk; in the meantime I'm afraid you'll need to share your poetry elsewhere.

In Christ,
Doug
