A Readers View
At times I receive email from readers that describe their personal journey and how the TDSG series helped them find a proper direction to their final destination. Often they tell me their up and downs during this journey, and how it always leads them back on track.
Other writers lack a central core in their thesis, and when people are seeking truth, more than not confusions sets in. Something just did not feel right. What may have felt right earlier seemed to have changed and now leading one down the wrong path.
I do understand this, because my life also has gone through all of these things at one time or another. It is the process we must all use to lead us back home. We go through our ups and downs, the ups feel wonderful, a feeling of peace, and knowing. The downs are incredibly invasive and makes us feel like we are not even at square one yet.
Then with time we always realize that even though the trial was difficult, we are better off now that what we were, and that feeling of peace and joy return only to me met with more trial. It is a difficult path. It will not be easy for anyone. However, for me, I am thrilled when I see others recognizing this path for what it is via the Father’s spirit.
And today I just wanted to share this email that was sent to me revealing the process from someone else in their own words. The true spirit is the same for everyone. There are not many different spirits, the true spirit of the Father is one, it is not divided or cut asunder. It is one spirit, one mind, one body.
So often readers tell me how reading other works leaves them in a state of confusion. This occurs when the content seems to ring true, but subtly begins to lead one off track leaving them more confused than before. The reason this occurs is because no one else reveals the true knowledge that we must trust the Father via Christ for all things. We are not here to place our trust in other humans, and if that human is not directing you to the true source of all things, then they are deceiving you.
Once we have that personal connection, it then reveals everything we need to move forward, it also reveals the errors of other content that is more like a trap than revelation.
Although we may all be at different levels of growth, the same spirit is guiding and leading everyone if they are in tune. So take the time to read the following. I edited some of it for public consumption.

From reader Andrew from Australia,
Hi John
Thanks for this last article on the Jesus possession notion.
One thing noted in my short TDSG journey from extreme ignorance to slightly less extreme ignorance is that I was so easily / deftly / subtly led astray by other theories that sounded feasible, possible. These theories often caused me to doubt what I had been thinking. I’d be on a happy and safe path following your materials, then I would read something else that would spark a ‘well, it’s possible, and sounds ok...’ type response.
I then was in a state of confusion, unsure of anything. Then I’d get back on track, only to find another theory, and another ‘well, could be, sounds feasible...’ trail and I’d start to venture down that path. Same result – confusion.
What I discovered over time is that, despite these distractions, the true path continued to build inside me. Brick by brick as I studied your materials. As my foundation grew, the foundation stones were laid correctly. The ‘knowledge’ (brick, mortar and stringline) from your works, when studied and contemplated properly, led to ‘understanding’ (how to use a stringline, how to lay mortar, how to build a straight, solid, proper brick wall).
That combination of knowledge and understanding, leads to wisdom (the ability to use the information provided with correct understanding, in order that one may build wisdom – that rock-solid, properly constructed foundation that we all need to build in order to have our proper truth or belief )
And it’s funny, because my mind’s eye sees this foundation, this wisdom, as the massive, ancient, granite foundation of an enormous castle. Not a new brick wall, but an ancient immovable fortress that has ‘always’ been there.
The edges of the stones are rounded, there is moss in the mortar, but as I look, I see mist swirling around, and that mist is starting to lift, to part, and some light is starting to filter through the gray to show the solid foundation of ‘me’. The image of my belief system, the foundation, is ‘me’ in a way. A true and ancient part of me being uncovered. As if the TDSG series has helped me find ‘me’ or the solid foundation of my truth. That what is within me is ancient, always there, covered by a misty veil that is starting to part or lift.
And today, ‘whatever’ I read that is external, simply runs up against this foundation, and any parts left wanting, simply vanish. Anything that feels real is kept, but the rest just falls away, like waves crashing upon the rocks. So much of what comes into my awareness nowadays simply is not contemplated. Not even considered as interesting, as if I know deep down that’s just fluff. Just misdirection, just there for confusion.
The moral for me – go within for truth. Go without for entertainment and testing.
In the old days, I looked at the (writing of others). I (then) went back recently and immediately tuned off. There were elements that seemed in line with logic, yet it simply directs us back to the artificial spirit narrative.
Similarly for others with most interesting ideas (yet) still falling back into the God-Devil narrative, with no understanding or mention of the Father. (when the Father is not mentioned it reveals), whether that the writing is of higher value or not.
Which puts just about all of them in the questionable basket. And though I look at some aspects mentioned that help me grow or become more aware or help free me from the attachments or mind influences, the overall writing is registered as ‘null and void’ in terms of it not being a vital aid to associate deeply with.
I look for pieces of truth. I no longer look at such writings as being a builder of my belief system. That’s already there, (along with a filter) for further information. The idea that Jesus might possess us, seems to me to come from a very, very early to limited understanding and incorporation of the ideas of the TDSG. Jesus was the man, Christ was the spirit within that went though the Adam-Jesus earthly incarnations.
It was something that crossed my mind earlier. That opening myself up for the Christ to grow within me might be opening myself up to possession and trickery – given that most of everything we know is a lie (coming from) the great deceivers.
But for me, the principles of the FMC, fruits of the spirit, the Will of the Father – are exactly what I want to be. I want to learn, become, grow into perfection as Christ is perfect. I want to be like Jesus who walked this earth in terms of his characteristics (though I am weak and wretched).
And if opening up to becoming such means possession, then I accept. My faith is in the FMC, my F&M, the Tree of Life. I am in their hands and I accept any direction and path they so wish to lead me. Becoming such is all I desire. To be anything other than this is a most frightening thought.
********************
(Personal comment: Yes Andrew so true, and what is ironic, are many individuals warn others about placing your trust in the Father or Christ, like this is so dangerous, and yet, they are the same ones seeking your trust often in the ancient fallen ones, along with unverified concepts that only lead to confusion of the mind and spirit because there is no true spiritual direction. The blind leading the blind...
They cannot offer true spiritual direction because they do not have it to give, in that they are refusing to go to the source that does have it.
Often most works are usually for carnal gratification as well as often for some personal financial gain. Meaning there are strings attached. Understand, real divine spiritual truth ‘doesn’t sell’ because it is divine spirit fueled and it is contrary to this world and everything therein.
I ask, why would anyone fear the direct attachment with the Father and Christ? It is tantamount to telling a son or daughter not to trust your own loving father or mother because it is dangerous, and they don’t have your best interest at heart. But hey; come and follow this or that... Check it out, hey this alien or long forgotten god does have your best interest at heart... Why would anyone warn others of this amazing and beautiful connection? Why would anyone fear the eternal and internal teacher, parent and creator of perfection of all knowledge and wisdom, including each one of us?
Sadly, and partly it is due to the fact they do not feel or have this connection themselves, so the seed cannot take root, possibly out of jealousy, wrath or rage, they fight against it due to their lack of personal connection.
I promise you, if they had this connection and felt its power they would never teach against it. But primarily, Satan and Lucifer fear the Father & Christ, they rebelled against them, and that same spirit is being engaged unknowingly within the soul of the deceived.) (JVP)

Simply having the information or knowledge is not enough. Having an understanding without proper information is not enough. We need knowledge, and understanding, that when combined provides us with wisdom. Your teachings John provide all that we need to become the change we seek. It’s up to us to use it to deprogram and reprogram leading to Life resurrection.
Now, today, more than ever, we need to wrap our arms around the Tree of Life and hang on for dear life. Learn, understand, transform and grow. And continue, on and on and on. And then when the tornado passes, and there is the eerie silence, we can lift our heads and survey the wreckage that is all around us. Yet we stand safely wrapped up in the arms of the Tree of Life
Thanks John, just my limited views on what I see. Thanks for all of your continuing hard work.
Regards Andrew.
