A significent and wonderful book

Messages from Jesus is written by a woman I personally know -- a healer who has been able to see and converse with Jesus since childhood. Despite her reticence about the name, Saint Ta, Jesus told her to use it (see Chapter One). He said she was to write books of spiritual truth for others, sharing her experiences and His words of hope for humanity. Throughout the book, Jesus reminds us that "God is a loving God" and that the Old Testament conception of a vengeful, punishing God is erroneous. Many Christians and Jews today are moving away from the belief that God is judgmental and vengeful. It is always disturbing to have one's beliefs challenged, but Jesus wants us to realize that God is a God of love and mercy, not of condemnation and punishment. He makes it clear throughout the book that we, not God, are the ones who judge each other and ourselves, and delve out punishment. Jesus discusses life and death, in response to Saint Ta's question about those who have or perform abortions. He says: "Life is precious, before war and after war. Do you condemn those who send your youth to die in war? Within your dualistic world, you perceive circumstances that warrant war, even as you perceive circumstances that warrant abortion. Therefore, I simply ask that whatever you do, do it with love." (p. 265) Jesus is making the point that, just as many believe war is justified in certain circumstances, so also many believe abortion is justified in certain circumstances. He began His response to Saint Ta's question by telling us "There are many individual situations that warrant or censure abortion." He also states that the issues are complicated and unfathomable from our human perspective, the soul cannot die, and "It is not for me nor you to judge." Therefore, He simply asks: "whatever you do, do it with love." Jesus does not take sides for or against war or abortion. When he says, "Do you condemn those who send your youth to die in war?", Jesus is not suggesting that we should or should not condemn these leaders; He is simply pointing out that, in fact, many of us do not condemn them. He is showing us that, within our dualistic world, many perceive circumstances that warrant war, even as many perceive circumstances that warrant abortion. Just as many do not condemn those who send our youth to die in war, so also many do not condemn those who perform abortions. Jesus' words often have to be carefully read and contemplated in order to comprehend His meaning. At the beginning of the chapter "War", Jesus says, "Thou shalt not kill. War, among other things, is cause and effect, resulting from and in karmic debt. Karmic experiences are destined to happen over and over, unless the chains of karma are broken and love reigns. The commandment, `Thou shalt not kill,' along with love, nonviolence and forgiveness, would rid the earth of this karma, and worldwide peace would be maintained for generations to come." (p. 105) Throughout the book, we are reminded not to

Words for Everyone from Master Jesus

Messages from Jesus: A Dialogue of Love could well be placed on your bookshelf as an extension of the Holy Bible. It keeps pace with the major (and sometimes controversial) subjects and concerns of today's world. Scripture is also brought into clearer focus. The book is not only for Christians, but affirms the Wholeness of God, without duality, while emphasizing to all of us the importance of love. The veil that instills the feeling of separation from God in so many people is pulled aside by a deeper sense of love in the unity of His Oneness. Jesus answers questions, makes his own relevant inquiries, and offers statements to expand our understanding. All this is recorded and sweetly shared by Saint Ta. Numerous heartfelt poems, composed by her, are interspersed throughout the book to either emphasize or become part of the dialogue between herself and Jesus. A most enjoyable bonus! Saint Ta, a sincere and highly gifted lady, with a life-long intimacy with Jesus writes in a most personal way that draws the reader into the message of the book as a participant--not as an outsider who is listening in. The questions she asks of Jesus are often those that we would ask if we were able to do so. The reader will relate to Jesus with a sense that he is speaking to all humanity as well as to Saint Ta. His "Messages" are for all people, for all religions, and for all time. The time spent with Jesus and Saint Ta is an enjoyable, informative, and an uplifting experience.

Messages From Jesus - A Dialogue of Love

Song of the Morning is a yoga retreat, nestled deep in the silence and beauty of a Michigan forest. My husband and I built our home in the nurturing space of a new spiritual community here, where we live, happily anchored in God's grace. It is from here that I wrote this book.I was told at a very young age, in Sunday School, that Jesus was my friend and I could talk to Him about all my problems. I found that this was true. Whenever I would think of Him, He was there, often smiling, and we would talk or just be silent.Most children lose their ability to see Jesus or other spirit beings or invisible friends. They realize that others can't see them, and they tend to slowly let go of the things grown-ups never saw or have long since forgotten. Or maybe parents and peers tell them how silly they are, so they block out such subtle experiences from their awareness.Eventually, I realized that others could not see Jesus, and I also knew that they would consider me strange if I talked of seeing Him. I loved His nearness and found comfort in His presence, but I learned to keep these experiences to myself. Jesus never faded from my awareness. During all my growing up years and into adulthood, Jesus continued to be my friend and companion. To this day, He is still with me.In my openness to the spirit world, I was eventually made aware of having the gift of spiritual healing. I was raised as a conservative Lutheran and did not have much knowledge of such things. Suddenly miraculous healings were taking place. I was working as a traveling occupational therapist in hospitals, out-patient clinics and other settings, and the healing ability just appeared. I had a hard time dealing with my new role. It made being a conservative Lutheran difficult. I felt separated from the rest of my church family. I felt different somehow. Still, this was not something I could keep secret. This was God's work and could not be set aside. Then I had an awakening, which led to even more awareness of spirit and more separateness from those who don't want to hear about things they don't understand. So I came to live at the Retreat, not to escape but to be able to commune with Jesus in an accepting environment. It was here that I met my present husband, who values spiritual matters as I do. And now, Jesus and other enlightened beings have asked me to write books for all of you. My personal relationship with them is no longer just a personal one. It is all encompassing and includes everyone who reads these books. Please remember, as you read this dialogue, that Jesus is speaking to you, even when it seems as if He is speaking just to me. Jesus said, "Even if the sharing seems to be concentrated on you (Saint Ta), it is not about you. Disown it. Your sharing is about what these writings will do for others."So I lay my life before you and share what is very sacred to me: the gift of this dialogue within "Messages from Jesus", filled with His guidance and love.
