BLESSED BY ETERNAL LOVE

My Dear Precious Child, John, the Beloved, as he is called, was so filled with the love shown to him by Jesus Christ that all of his writings are filled with teachings about My love. He emphasized in his first letter to the churches that if a believer has fear of punishment from Me in his mind, then he is not perfected in the revelation of My love because My love teaches him or her that his or her sins are forgiven by Me by the death of Jesus Christ, so there is no occasion or need for punishment. But, more important, when you are complete or perfect in your revelation of My character, you know intimately that I am Love and that I am not the one who punishes, anyway, but that the devil is the one who punishes. He tempts My children and then punishes them for doing his will if they succumb to the temptation. My judgment for the demons who tempt My children which causes them to inherit the devil's punishment is that those demons must be sent into the lake of fire in the abyss which I created in case My first children allowed the devil and his demons into the earth that I had created as a paradise and the judgment that I pronounced on those demons was eternal fire and gnashing of teeth. (Matthew 13:36-43)That judgment was never intended to be for any of My children that I created in My image. So if a person has the erroneous belief that I will punish a person at the judgment of the demons, then that person is definitely not rooted in the truth of My love for humanity. If you will remember, Jesus Christ said that I loved the world so much that I sent My son into the world to save the world, not to condemn or destroy it. (John 3:16-17) If your belief is that I am waiting to punish you for sins, then My love is not perfected in you. (I John 4:19) John, the Beloved, wrote in his first letter that if you fear punishment from Me, then My love is not fully developed and perfected in you. (I John 4:16-18) He wrote that the only way that you can love Him and everyone is because God loved you first. So if you love Me, then you must also love your brother. (I John 4:20-21) Because you love Me, then you must also love My Son, Jesus Christ the Messiah, and you must love everyone born of Me. (I John 5:1) In his first letter John the Beloved wrote that the visible evidence that you love Me and My children is when you obey the commands of Jesus Christ under My new covenant of the Holy Spirit, keeping His ordinances, His precepts and His teachings. If you truly love Me, then you will not only obey My advice but you will never regard them as being burdensome or oppressive because whatever is born of Me overcomes the evil in the world; and your faith is what has victory over the demons in the world. My children who believe that Jesus is My Son is he who came to Me by His death through water and the baptism of the Holy Spirit; by the death of Jesus Christ; not by water alone, but by water and the Spirit. John wrote that it is the Holy Spirit who confirms your being My Child because He is the Truth. (I John 5:6-7) He wrote that there are three witnesses in heaven, Jesus, My Holy Spirit and Me and we are all One. We agree and there is unity in Us. Because there is unity in Us, there must also be unity between My children who are established in My love. (I John 5:8) Your Father of Eternal Love

BLESSED BY LOVE REVELATIONS

My Dear Precious Child, Besides the fact that John the Beloved had been given My Holy Spirit, and possessing My Holy Spirit is the sign of being loved by Me, John also professed that he and some of Jesus' other disciples had born witness by their earthly eyes of My Love through Jesus Christ and they possessed the truth that He was My Son. (I John 4:14) He wrote in his first letter to the churches that anyone who confesses that Jesus is My Son has Him living inside of the person's own body and not only does Jesus live in the person, but the person lives in Me. (I John 4:15) As a result of your being bound in unity with Me by having My Holy Spirit living inside of you, then you believe and are conscious of the Love with which I cherish you because, as he wrote, I am Love and anyone who lives and continues to live in My Love enjoys My fellowship with him or her. (I John 4:16) He acknowledged that it is in that union and communion with Me that My Love is brought to perfection in you so that you will have confidence on the day of My judgment of evil spirits that because as Christ is, which is the embodiment of Love, you are also Love in the world. There is no fear of judgment in Love, no dread, because mature, perfected Love turns fear away and expels every thought of terror! (I John 4:17-18) John explained in his first letter that there was and is no fear of punishment by Me in Jesus and in My children because anyone who is afraid of punishment from Me has not reached the full and mature revelation of My love for him or her. (I John 4:18) He encapsulated that Truth by writing that you can only love Me because I loved you first and gave to you the power of My Love with which to Love others. (I John 4:19) The warning in that Truth is that if you say that you love Me but hate your brother, then you are a liar because anyone who does not love his brother, whom he or she can see, cannot love Me Whom he or she has not seen. John wrote that Jesus and I gave the charge that if you love Me that you will love your brother also. (I John 4:19-20) It is only by the power of My Holy Spirit that you and My other children can love your brother or sister who has been unkind or abusive toward you. I gave to you My Holy Spirit so that He would change the hatred in you into My Love because of the adverse human reaction which always wants to reject an abuser. In order to love someone who shows hated toward you, My Holy Spirit is the only Power who is able to make that change in you from hate into Love. Your Father of Merciful and Loving Changes

BLESSED THROUGH DISCERNING OF SPIRITS

My Dear Precious Child, The prophet John was very concerned about the believers in the churches and so he wrote to them warnings about false prophets, saying not to put faith in every spirit who speaks from the mouths of teachers and prophets, but instead that they must test the spirits of the people who came to minister to them. He joined with Paul's warnings that many false prophets were being sent by the devil to deceive them. He identified the false prophets as saying that if a person does not confess that Jesus Christ came in the flesh that that spirit is from the antichrist which they had been warned was coming and was already active in the world and was trying to invade the churches. The wisdom of Christ had already confirmed to them that the spirit of antichrist was already confessing errors in denying that Jesus was the Christ. John wrote that the believers had already defeated the spirit of antichrist in their lives because My Holy Spirit in them is greater than the demon of antichrist who exists in the world. (I John 4:1-4) He wrote that the false prophets speak from the demons in the world and the world listens to them but that you who are My children listen only to Me, whoever is learning to know Me and understand Me, that that person only listens to Me. He wrote that people who do not listen to Me or listen to My ministers don't know Me and don't know the difference between My Truth and the demonic spirit of error. John's magnificent discourse on love was written in his first letter to believers in the churches. He wrote that as beloved children of Mine that they should love one another because Love comes from Me and the people who love their fellow man are spiritually birthed by Me and they love Me, but the people who do not love their fellow men don't know Me and they have never been acquainted with Me, for I am Love. (I John 4:7-8) John wrote the explanation that the way that I displayed My Love for people was that I sent My Son into the world so that you might live through Him. He clarified it to say that it's not that you love Me but that I love you and that I sent My Son to be the payment for your sins. That is the epitome of Love. He added to that Truth by saying that since I loved you so much to send My Son to die for your sins, then you ought to love other people like I love you. (I John 4:9-11) Also, to amplify that Truth, he wrote that no person has ever seen Me with their earthly eyes, but if you love other people then that is the full maturity of My Love in you. It is the sign that My Love has been perfected in you. John then wrote that the way that you know that Christ lives in you and that you live in Him is by the fact that Jesus Christ and I have given to you the Holy Spirit who was evident in Jesus Christ. (I John 4:12-13) John was known as John the Divine and John the Beloved because of his revelation of the height, depth, width and breadth of My Love and his perception of the Love that was shown to Him personally by My Son Jesus Christ. (Ephesians 6:20) John spent a short time on earth by his seeing visions of the activities on the streets of heaven which are recorded in His book of Revelations, which are truly his revelations as revealed about My long journey with men in the earth. They are similar to the books of Ezekiel which revealed the ministry of My Holy Spirit with My angels and also in the book of Enoch, a man who never died but just walked straight from earth into heaven to be with Me. The book of Enoch describes the hierarchy of heaven, the order of the divine authority as referred to by the centurion whom Jesus said possessed the greatest faith in all of the world. (Matthew 8:5-13) Faith works by Love, Paul proclaimed. (Galatians 5:6) Your Father of Forever Encompassing Love

BLESSED BY LETTING LOVE LIVE INSIDE OF YOU

My Dear Precious Child, In his gospel writings the disciple and apostle John wrote more extensively about Love than any of the other three gospel writers. Then when I encouraged him to write letters to the churches, he amplified his revelations concerning My Love for humanity in all of those letters. He also had a clear revelation concerning all of the evil in the world, writing that it all comes from the devil tempting people to do his evil in the world and people following the guidance of the devil instead of their following My guidance. John wrote that anyone who hates his brother is a murderer because he or she is yielding to the temptation of the devil to hate which is followed by the temptation to kill, just like Cain killed his brother Abel. (I John 3:15) In his first letter to the churches, John also wrote that humans must come to understand the Love that Jesus Christ had for humanity, that it was demonstrated by the fact that He laid His life down for humans; and so we ought to also lay our lives down for our brothers and sisters. John wrote that the way to fulfill that order to fulfill the Love that Jesus Christ had for humanity is that if you have worldly goods and you see a person in need and you close your heart of compassion from that person in need, how can My Love be found in you if you deny practicing Love in reality, not merely in theory. It is by that assurance that you are walking in Love if you meet the needs of the less fortunate people in the world. John also wrote that if your conscience does not condemn you, then you are in My will because My power is above all of the devil's temptations in your conscience. So, John wrote that if you do not allow the devil to use your conscience against you to accuse you, then you will receive all that you ask for from Me because you are following My commands on how to avoid bonding with evil and there will be nothing to block the delivery of My answers to your prayers. When there are no barriers of hate between us, whatever you ask, it will be done for you. (I John 3:21-22) John went even further in this truth when he wrote in his first letter that if you put your faith and trust in the name of Jesus Christ that you will love one another, just like He commanded you. In other words, if you take His advice, follow His suggestions, His commands and His words, then you live and abide in Him and He lives and abides in you. (I John 3:23) John emphasized that Truth when he repeated it again, writing that everyone who follows His orders, takes His suggestions and obeys His commands to love one another, then you have allowed Christ to have a home inside of you and you have a home inside of Him. The way that you know that you have allowed Him to have a home inside of you is by the Holy Spirit whom He has given to live inside of you, welcoming His Spirit to make His home inside of you. (I John 3:24) The apostle Paul mirrored this Truth when He wrote that you are the temple of My Holy Spirit when Christ has settled down and lives inside of you, and that the Holy Spirit is Lord in the earth. (I Corinthians 3:16; II Corinthians 3:17-18) Your Father of Love and Compassion

BLESSED BY DOING RIGHTEOUS WORKS

MY DEAR PRECIOUS CHILD, The disciple and apostle of Jesus Christ who is known as John the Beloved or Jon the Divine was named so because he was so solidly established in My love for humanity. He wrote to the people in churches in his first letter that if you know by divine revelation that Jesus Christ is absolutely righteous, that being that He conforms to My will in every way, then you will also be sure in your belief that everyone who does righteously, that is being conformed to doing His divine will in the earth, then you are born of Me, having been born of My divine sperm of the Holy Spirit. (I John 3: 9) John amplified that truth by launching into the revelation that he had learned that it was by the incredible quality of My Love that I would allow you to be called My child, and that's why the people of the world do not know My Son Jesus Christ the way that My children know Him. He wrote that when you meet Me face to face that you will still have unimagined favor with Me, though John did not at that time know what would completely transpire. He just knew that it was imperative that My children allow My Holy Spirit to cleanse them until they are pure, just like Christ is pure. (I John 3:1-3) It was John's revelation from My Holy Spirit that anyone who commits sin is guilty of lawlessness, and that's what sin really is, is either willingly violating My commandments or by reason of neglect you transgress My commands. John identified in his writing who is responsible for causing the sins, and he idenfied him as the devil because the devil sinned from the very beginning. It was Truth when John wrote that the reason that Jesus Christ came into the world was to destroy the works of the devil. (I John 3:8) He wrote that when Jesus Christ appeared in visible form in the earth that He came to take away the sins of the world because in Him there was no sin. He also wrote that you and everyone who lives in Him and remains in communion and obedience to Him will not sin willingly because My divine sperm of the Holy Spirit lives inside of you and you will not purposely defy Him. (I John 3: 9-10) John clarified certain Truths for the people who read his letters to the churches. He wrote that it is abundantly clear who takes his or her nature from Me and are My children and who takes his or her nature from the devil and are his children. He clearly wrote that nobody is of Me who does not practice righteousness and who does not love his brother because the message heard from the beginning is that My children should love each other. (I John 3:11) In John's letters he clearly identified the devil as the one who tempts and tries My children, his not merely identifiying disobedience as being a sin of mankind. John put an identity on the cause behind all sin, that being the devil, instead of identifying the actions of the devil as merely being the sins of mankind. Through John identifying the culprit behind all sin as being the devil, he was revealing that the battle for the souls of My children that has been going on in the earth since the beginning of time, that being the battle between evil and good, is actually the battle between the devil and Me. So by identifying sin as being the actions of people in response to the temptations of the devil instead of their actions as being from their own sinful conscience, John correctly identified the battle going on for the earth as being between the devil and Me instead of the battle in the earth being between Me and the disobedient people whom I created in My image. John correctly wrote that My message from the beginning of the world is that you love one another and that you do not become like Cain who chose to take his nature and command from the devil and so he killed his own brother, killing him in response to the devil's command. It was written by Moses' writing in the book of Genesis that I had even cautioned Cain that the devil was crouching at the door of his mind, tempting him so that when Cain yielded to the devil that he would control Cain and cause Cain to do the devil's will in the earth instead of continuing to love his brother, which was My will in his life. (Genesis 3:6-8) Before Cain killed his brother, he had already yielded to the devil's will by offering sacrifices to Me that were from the grains of the earth instead of his giving sacrifices that had My life within them. (I John 3:11-12) In John's first letter to the churches, he told the believers that they should not be surprised that the people of the world hates them, that being because the believers have passed from death and have taken on My Life which was identified by the fact that they loved one another instead of being like dogs competing competitively and ferociously for a pan of food in the devil's competitive and hateful nature. John wrote that anyone who does not love but instead hates other people, that person actually remains in spiritual death. (I John 3:13-14) John's assessment of the hearts and souls of people was enlightened by his ability to receive the Love of Jesus Christ and pass that Love on to other people. John loved to a higher degree than the rest of the disciples because of his nature and his ability to love other people as He loved Me. John adopted the Love of My Son Jesus Christ as his motivation in life on earth. Go and have the same motivation. Your Heavenly Father of Love

BLESSED BY INTIMATELY KNOWING GOD

My Dear Precious Child, The apostle and disciple of Jesus Christ called John, the Divine, had such a complete and endearing knowledge of My love, so he professed two truths in the beginning of his letter to the churches. One was that the followers of Jesus Christ must fellowship with Him and with Me; and two was that I am Light and in Me there is no darkness. He then proceeded to write about the ministry of Jesus Christ for the payment of sins for all people, their sins and the sins of the whole world. (I John 1:3-5) He then wrote that it's best if people don't sin, but if they do sin he wanted them to know that they have an Advocate in Jesus Christ, the righteous, who was the complete payment for the sins of the whole world. He wrote that the way that they could discern whether they knew Him or not was if they kept His commandments. He even wrote that a person was a liar who professed to know Jesus Christ and does not keep His commandments. (I John 2:4-5) He wrote that a person who keeps all of His commandments, that in that person My love has been perfected. He repeated that truth by saying that the way to know that someone is truly living in Christ is if the person observes His commandments. In fact, he wrote that anyone who lives in Christ will walk and conduct himself or herself in the identical way that Jesus Christ conducted Himself.(I John 2:6) Then John made it clear that he was not writing a new commandment but that he was emphasizing an old commandment that they had heard from the beginning, the doctrine of salvation through Christ. (I John 2:7) Yet, he wrote that he really was writing to them a new commandment because darkness in their minds was clearing away and the true Light of God in Christ was already shining in them. (chapter 2; verse 8) Because John was so perfectly acquainted with My Love through Jesus Christ, he could discern good from evil. He wrote in his first letter to the churches that whoever says that he or she is in the Light and hates his brother, that person is still in darkness; but the person who loves his brother, in him or her there is no occasion for stumbling or sinning. John wrote that whoever hates his brother is walking in darkness and he or she is straying because darkness has blinded his or her eyes. John explained in his first letter that he was writing the letter to the people who had experientially come to know My Love and so their sins had been forgiven and they had received their full pardon by having their sins forgiven. (I John 2:11-12) John wanted the people to know that he was also writing to the elderly Christian followers who had come to completely know Christ from the beginning, but he was also writing to the young men who were strong and vigorous in whom My words lived inside of them and it was shown by how they had been victorious against the devil. (chapter 2: verses 13-14) He narrowed down the numbers of people whom He said loved Me. He said that if someone loves and cherishes things in the world that My love is not in that person. John identified the things that come between Me and My children, naming them as, one, the lust of the flesh by craving sensual gratification; and two, the lust of the eyes which are greedy longings of the mind; and three, the pride of one's own resources or his finding stability in earthly things because those lusts do not come from Me but instead are from the world itself as given by the devil. (I John 2: 16; Genesis 3:1-7 ) John reminded the church people to whom he wrote his first letter that things of the world pass away and with it are the cravings and desires of the world, but the person who does My will in the earth will carry out my purposes in life and those things will endure forever. Concerning the lusts of the flesh, John emphasized to the young believers that the antichrist spirit was already in the world which emphasized that the old covenant was over and the new covenant of the Holy Spirit was in operation. He identified the antichrist spirits by saying that the people with that spirit were not with the believers in Jesus Christ or they would have remained with them instead of scattering.(chapter 2, verses 17-19) John also identifed the true believers by saying that they had a divine unction, that they had been anointed by the Holy Spirit and that they all knew the Truth. John also identified that anyone who denies that Jesus is the Christ is of the antichrist spirit. He is an antagonist of Christ by denying that Jesus is the Christ. (chapter 2; verse 21-22) In John's letter he wrote Truth when he wrote that anyone who disowns My Son also disowns Me, even if they call themselves by My name. He wrote that believers must keep in their hearts what they heard from the beginning and that those doctrines are Truths that prove that they will live with the Son and Me always because My Son has promised life eternal. He emphasized this Truth in order to protect people from the false prophets. (I John 2:23-26) John was intent upon making sure that the believers were secure in their foundation of faith so that they would not be deceived. He identified the antichrist spirit and the love of things of the world as belonging to the deceiver and his deceiving spirits. Your Father of Truth and Knowledge

BLESSED BY FELLOWSHIP

My Dear Precious Child, John, the Divine, the disciple who discerned the love of Jesus Christ to a higher degree than any of the other disciples when He walked and talked with them in a human body, John's profession was that his fellowship and the fellowship of his fellow believers was with "the Father and with His Son Jesus Christ." He wrote after the new covenant of the Holy Spirit was implemented in the earth that what he and his other ministers had declared to the churches was that their fellowship must be with Me and with Jesus Christ. (I John 1:3) His reasoning was that he and the other disciples had had the privilege of knowing Jesus face to face by being with him from the beginning of His ministry, seeing Him with their human eyes, having looked upon Him, and they had touched Him, the man who was the Word of Life. John wrote that the disciples had had My Life revealed to His disciples and that the Person who had previously existed with the Father had been revealed to His followers. He wrote that he was speaking about this Jesus Christ so that they might realize and enjoy that same fellowship and become partakers also in enjoying the fellowship that the disciples had enjoyed when Jesus was in the earth, which was to fellowship with Him and with Me. (I John 1:1-3) He wrote that he was writing about the possibility of the believers also having fellowship with Me and with the Father so that their joy would be complete. (verse 4) John went on to teach the people to whom he wrote his letter that the message that he wanted them to know was that the message and the promise that they heard from Me through Jesus when He walked and talked in human flesh with them was that I am Light and there is no darkness at all in Him. Then he reiterated that truth that there is no darkness at all in Him by writing again, "No, not any darkness at all," as if to convince them of a truth. (verse 5) He went deeper into the truth of their having fellowship with Jesus and Me when He wrote that anyone who says that they have fellowship with Me and with the Father but move around in darkness, then that person speaks falsely and does not practice the Truth of the Gospel. Then John clarified his earlier statement about fellowship by writing that if we say we are walking in the Light, as Jesus himself is in the Light, then he has fellowship one with another -- meaning fellowship with Jesus and Me and Our fellowship with them, and then the blood of Jesus Christ, My Son, cleanses you from sin in all of its forms and manifestations, all of that grace that comes from being in one on one fellowship with Me. (verses 6&7) John went further in the discussion by saying that if you say that you have not sinned, then you have deluded yourself and the Truth does not live in you. However, if you admit that you have sinned, then Jesus Christ is faithful and just to forgive you. If you say that you have never sinned, then you contradict My word which ways that all have sinned and come short of My glory, so if you say you have never sinned, then you make Jesus Christ out to be a liar and the Truth of the Gospel is not in your heart. (verses 8-10) John wrote the first part of his letter to clarify the Truth that your fellowship must be with Me and with the Risen Jesus Christ, who died for your sins. It is your fellowship with Me and Jesus Christ that is able to identify any sin that is not clearly apparent so that He can cleanse your mind and heart of any hidden sins. Many people have misunderstood the first chapter to John's letter to say that if they fellowship with humans in the church, with each other, that the blood of Jesus Christ will cleanse them of sins. That would be impossible because just by fellowshiping with each other, sins of jealousy, envy, pride, or other sins will often minister to the minds of people. It is only in fellowshiping with Me and My Son that He can enlighten you to hidden sins and you can allow Him to cleanse your mind of those sins. To clarify the Truth in John's words in the first chapter of I John, you must read the entire chapter and see that the theme of the entire chapter relates to your having fellowship with Jesus Christ and with Me. His instructions in the third verse means that, just like the disciples' fellowship with Me, you must also fellowship with Me because it is only in being in unity with Me that My blood of Jesus Christ can cleanse you of all sin. Many people have been led astray by interpreting the chapter to mean that your having fellowship with each other causes the blood of Jesus to cleanse you. That would be impossible. It is only in your being in unity with Jesus Christ, Himself, that there be will be a blood transfusion and His blood will cleanse your body of evil. It is only through your having spiritual intercourse with Me that your body can be cleansed of evil, just like when a person has kidney dialysis and the dialysis takes out the impurities in his blood. Merely talking to another human being does not accomplish that feat. There has to be a spiritual exchange of blood, which can only happen in fellowship with Me and with Jesus Christ.
