seek God honestly.</p><p>And yet, the Love you once felt so clearly now seems muted. God does not feel gone, just somehow out of reach.</p><p>When that happens, doubt often slips in. Not loud doubt. Quiet doubt. The kind that wonders why prayer feels dry, or why peace does not come the way it once did. And when doubt appears, many people assume something has gone wrong. That they have failed. That God has withdrawn.</p><p>But what if that is not what is happening at all?</p><p>There is a spiritual truth that gently turns this experience around. God&#8217;s Love may still be fully present, even when it is not consciously felt. The absence is not in God. It is not even in the soul. It is in awareness.</p><p>The mind, when it fills with doubt, fear, or conflicting beliefs, can act like a covering. Not a wall that pushes God away, but a veil that keeps the soul&#8217;s light from shining into conscious experience. The Love remains. But when it is veiled, the joy that naturally flows from it cannot rise into feeling.</p><p>This explains something many believers struggle to name. Why faith can still be real, yet Love feels distant. Why belief remains strong, yet the heart feels weary.</p><p>The reason is that the mind and the soul do not always move together.</p><p>The mind wants certainty. Proof. Explanations.<br>The soul responds to trust. Longing. Surrender.</p><p>As long as we live on earth, there can be a quiet struggle between the two. Not a battle of good and evil, but a tension between thinking and knowing.</p><p>Over time, as beliefs soften and come into harmony with what the soul already knows, the struggle eases. Doubt loses its grip. The mind grows quieter. Eventually, it no longer resists the soul&#8217;s awareness of God&#8217;s Love, but rests within it.</p><p>This offers a gentle hope to anyone who has felt spiritually dry. It suggests that God has not stepped away. That Love has not been withdrawn. That what feels lost may simply be waiting for the noise of doubt to quiet.</p><p>So perhaps the question is not, Where did God go?</p><p>Perhaps the better question is this.</p><p>What if God&#8217;s Love has been there all along, waiting for the soul to be heard above the mind?</p><p class="button-wrapper"

Confusing them can quietly burden the soul and make people feel as though they are failing, when in fact they are growing.</p><p>Faith means believing that God exists, that God is Love, that He is willing to give His Love, and that turning toward Him truly matters. Faith begins in awareness and intention, but it does not grow on its own. Faith grows through prayer. It grows as we turn to the Father and ask Him to help us believe, to help us trust, and to help us receive what cannot come from ourselves.</p><p>A person can have real faith even while afraid, uncertain, or wounded. Faith does not require emotional calm or perfect confidence. It only requires the willingness to pray and ask the Father for help where faith feels weak.</p><p>Trust grows after faith begins to bear fruit. And faith bears fruit only when it is brought to the Father in prayer. Trust means feeling safe enough to let go, no longer bracing for loss, relying on Love rather than control, and allowing life to unfold without constant self-protection. Trust lives deeper than thought. It settles into the body, the emotions, and the habits of the soul.</p><p>A person may have faith that God loves them and that Divine Love is real, and still struggle to trust outcomes, timing, protection, or surrender. This does not mean their faith is weak. It means their trust is still healing. In these moments, the soul is not asked to try harder. It is asked to pray more honestly.</p><p>Trust is harder than faith because faith can exist alongside fear, but trust cannot. Trust only grows as fear is removed. And fear lives deep, in the nervous system, in early experiences, and in learned self-reliance.</p><p>This is why prayer matters so much. Divine Love does not scold fear away. It heals it over time. When we ask the Father for faith, again and again, Divine Love reaches the places fear lives. As fear loosens its grip, trust begins to appear naturally.</p><p>Faith says, <em>I believe God loves me.</em><br>Prayer says, <em>Father, help me believe when I struggle.</em><br>Trust says, <em>I can rest in that love even when I don&#8217;t understand what is happening.</em></p><p>Faith reaches out.<br>Prayer keeps the soul open.<br>Trust slowly learns to let go.</p><p class="button-wrapper"

It cannot be separated from it. Wherever the soul truly grows closer to God, humility appears naturally and remains forever.</p><p>Humility does not mean thinking poorly of yourself. It means seeing clearly. As the soul develops, it understands more deeply that God is the source of all Love, truth, and life. Whatever goodness grows within us does not come from self-importance or effort alone, but from receiving and responding to God&#8217;s Love. That awareness naturally removes pride.</p><p>As the soul grows, it also becomes more honest. Not ashamed, but aware. It sees its limits, its need for God, and how much there is still to learn. This clarity does not weaken the soul. It strengthens it, because it replaces ego with gratitude and openness.</p><p>Divine Love itself softens the soul. It dissolves harshness, judgment, and the need to appear superior. The more love the soul receives, the more gentle and humble it becomes. Humility is not something added later. It grows alongside love.</p><p>This is why humility is a reliable sign of true spiritual development. When growth is real, humility is present. When pride dominates, something essential is missing.</p><p>True greatness in the soul is not found in being above others, but in loving more deeply. And where love increases, humility naturally follows.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe

another.</p><p>What we call death is not the end of life, but a gentle change of home. When the body can no longer serve the soul, the spirit body separates quietly and naturally from the physical form, and the soul awakens to continued life. Awareness does not fade. The soul simply awakens in a new world.</p><p>The passing from earth life to spirit life is calm and orderly, guided by God&#8217;s laws of love and life. The soul leaves the mortal body without struggle and finds itself still living, fully conscious, and at peace. Nothing that makes us who we are is lost. The spirit body is complete, still thinking, feeling, and aware.</p><p>At the moment of transition, the connection between the physical and spirit bodies is released. The soul may pause briefly, adjusting to this new awareness, before realizing it is alive and surrounded by loving faces. No one crosses alone. Loving friends, helpers, and ministering angels are always present to receive and gently guide each newly awakened spirit.</p><p>Each soul is drawn naturally to the place that matches its inner condition. Those who have opened their hearts to the Father&#8217;s Divine Love awaken in peace and love. Others find happiness in the spirit world through the goodness they have lived. Souls burdened by darkness or harm awaken in lower conditions, not as punishment, but as a reflection of their inner state. Yet no soul is ever abandoned, and all may rise as they turn toward goodness and the Father&#8217;s Love.</p><p>So you see, death is not something to fear. Life continues, growth continues, and the invitation of the Father&#8217;s Love is open, both here on earth and in the spirit world.</p><p class="button-wrapper"

It can only be received as a gift. There is only one doorway into it. The soul must desire it and ask God for it. This does not mean we need perfect words or a spiritual feeling. The soul opens when it honestly wants God&#8217;s Love more than anything else in that moment.</p><p>To pray in this way, the soul needs faith. Faith here is not religious belief and it is not agreeing with a doctrine. Faith means trusting that God&#8217;s Love is real, that He hears us, and that He wants to give His Love to us. When the soul starts to trust God even a little, the desire for His Love becomes stronger. That living desire is what opens the soul.</p><p>When the soul opens through faith and longing, God will fill it with His own Love. This Love is not a symbol or a comforting thought. It actually changes the nature of the soul. It makes us more like Him, not only in attitude or behavior, but in the deepest substance of who we are.</p><p>And when we struggle to have faith, all we need to do is ask our Father to strengthen it. As faith grows, the soul can long for His Love more freely, and in that longing the soul opens. Then Divine Love can enter and begin to transform the soul. This Love does not only soothe feelings. It reaches into the roots of fear, loneliness, guilt, pain, and every cause of suffering. It heals us from the inside out.</p><p class="button-wrapper"

The way to truly know the Father is through receiving His Love directly in the soul. No creed or belief can substitute for it.</p><p>This means our spiritual progress is not about accepting doctrines or belonging to a particular religious system. It is about something much deeper and more intimate. It is about the heart opening in humility and longing for God&#8217;s Love to fill it.</p><p>When we think about overcoming the world, we often picture a struggle of discipline, self-control, or correct belief. But the victory is not found in effort or intellectual agreement. It comes through the gentle transformation of the soul as the Father&#8217;s Love enters and changes it from within.</p><p>The world, with its fears and judgments and anxieties, loses its power when this Love grows inside us. Peace replaces worry. Compassion softens harshness. A new nature rises quietly, drawing us closer to God in a way the mind cannot fully explain, yet the soul knows deeply.</p><p>Our real path is not the mastering of ideas, but the receiving of His Love. Not the convincing of the intellect, but the awakening of the inner soul. Every sincere prayer for Love is heard. Every longing is answered. Every opening of the soul is met by the One who has always waited to give more.</p><p class="button-wrapper"

To be made in God&#8217;s image means to mirror His goodness and moral purity. To receive His essence means to share in His very nature. That could not be given automatically. It had to be desired, asked for, and received as the soul opened itself to Him.</p><p>God&#8217;s plan was not to make divine beings by command, but to invite His children into a partnership of love. The gift of His own Love would come only through free will, through longing hearts that turned toward Him in faith and prayer. Love must always be chosen; it can never be forced.</p><p>The first souls were given that opportunity, but they turned their attention instead to the world around them. They sought knowledge, mastery, and independence, believing these would make them wise. In doing so, they lost the chance to receive the one gift that could have made them divine in nature.</p><p>That loss was the true &#8220;fall&#8221; of humanity, not the eating of a literal fruit, but the turning away from the Source of Life. Yet the same choice still stands open to every soul today. We can reach for the same Love that was offered from the beginning, the Love that transforms the image of God within us into the living essence of God Himself, by opening our hearts in humble prayer and asking that His Love flow into our souls.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe now&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/subscribe?"><span>Subscribe now</span></a></p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/p/the-gift-that-had-to-be-chosen?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Share&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/p/the-gift-that-had-to-be-chosen?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share"><span>Share</span></a></p><p><em>The True Gospel Revealed Anew by Jesus</em>, can be freely downloaded and read at <a href="http://www.divinelove.org/TGRA-V">www.divinelove.org/TGRA-V</a></p>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[Returning to the Heart of the Father’s Love]]></title><description><![CDATA[Many of us were taught that faith means believing certain things about Jesus.]]></description><link>https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/p/returning-to-the-heart-of-the-fathers</link><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/p/returning-to-the-heart-of-the-fathers</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Voice of God’s Love]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 11 Nov 2025 04:52:10 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!ak0d!,w_256,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F22cdec3b-c2a1-446a-9e52-90ae26c2470b_1024x1024.png" length="0" type="image/jpeg"/><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Many of us were taught that faith means believing certain things about Jesus. But Jesus taught something deeper. He taught that the soul can receive the Father&#8217;s Love directly. This Love is real. It is not just a feeling or an idea. It changes the nature of the soul itself and draws us closer to God in a living way.</p><p>Over time, the message shifted. As Christianity grew, teachings were organized and shaped into doctrines. Belief became the focus. But the longing in the soul did not change. The soul still reaches for something more than belief. It reaches for the Father.</p><p>We are created with a natural love. This natural love is good and sincere. But it does not change the substance of the soul. Divine Love is different. It is the very Love of the Father. It must be received. When this Love enters the soul, the soul begins to change and grow more like the Father in essence, not just in understanding.</p><p>This is the path Jesus came to show. Not a system of beliefs, but a living way to receive the Father&#8217;s Love. The Father never removes our free will. Each soul is free to desire this Love or to continue in its natural state. For those who feel the longing and turn toward Him, the door is open, and the Father responds to the sincere prayer of the heart.</p><p>If your heart feels the quiet pull of this truth, simply turn toward the Father and ask for His Love. The journey begins there for He will meet you more than half way, for He never sleeps or closes His ear to the supplications of His children; and those who have sought Him with an earnest and repentant wish, and longing desire of the soul, know that He has always responded to their call.</p><p></p><p class="button-wrapper"

heaven would be our reward if we believed. These teachings have comforted many and they hold pieces of truth. But when we look closely at the spirit of Jesus&#8217; life and words, something deeper begins to shine through. It is something more personal, more transforming, and filled with a love that meets the soul where it is.</p><p>When Jesus spoke of the Kingdom of God, He did not describe a place we enter only after death. He said, &#8220;The Kingdom of God is within you.&#8221; That means the kingdom is something alive within the soul. It is not a prize earned later but a change of heart that begins here and now. Jesus was showing that eternal life is not distant and future. It begins when the soul opens and receives the Love of the Father.</p><p>We are often taught that faith means believing that Jesus&#8217; death satisfied a debt. But Jesus pointed to a different kind of faith, the trust that opens the heart so the Father&#8217;s Love can enter and make the soul new. When He healed, He said, &#8220;Your faith has made you whole.&#8221; That faith was not belief in a transaction. It was a trust that He was transforming the soul.</p><p>Jesus did not come to change God&#8217;s attitude toward humanity. He came to change humanity&#8217;s heart toward God. The Father has always loved His children. It is we who forgot how to receive that Love. Jesus showed that the true way to salvation is through prayer for the inflowing of the Father&#8217;s Love which makes the soul at one with Him.</p><p>Much of tradition speaks of sin as a legal guilt requiring payment. Jesus spoke of it as a condition of the soul, a separation from God&#8217;s Love. Redemption, then, is not a legal pardon but a healing. When the Father&#8217;s Love enters, sin falls away just as darkness disappears when light fills a room. Nothing is paid. Nothing is earned. The soul is changed from within. This is mercy in its highest form, not justice satisfied but love restoring what was lost.</p><p>Eternal life does not begin after death. Jesus taught that it begins when the soul is born anew through the inflowing of the Father&#8217;s Love. He called this the New Birth. He meant it literally. It is a real transformation. Those who receive this Love become divine in nature, sharing in the very essence of God. Heaven is not a reward for belief. Heaven is simply the natural home of the soul that has been filled with God&#8217;s Love.</p><p></p><p class="button-wrapper"

Not one who demands payment, but one who longs to give Himself to His children. Every parable, every act of mercy, every word of compassion was meant to show that the Father&#8217;s deepest desire is not obedience born of fear, but love born through relationship.</p><p>When we see His life this way, the message becomes clear: Jesus did not come to die for us so that God could forgive. He came to live with us so that we could receive the Love that makes forgiveness unnecessary.</p><p>If you have loved Jesus all your life, hold that love close, for it is precious. But open your heart to the possibility that He came to give even more than you&#8217;ve been told. He came to show how the soul can receive God&#8217;s own Love and become truly at one with Him.</p><p>When the soul reaches for the Father, words become more than speech; they become a living desire. In quiet moments of faith, this simple prayer opens the heart to His Love:</p><p><strong>&#8220;Father, let Your Love flow into my soul. Let faith awaken within me to feel and know Your presence, and guide me with Your Love and in Your Truth.&#8221;</strong></p><p>That prayer was the heart of His gospel then, and it is still the way to life eternal now.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe now&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/subscribe?"><span>Subscribe now</span></a></p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/p/the-god-jesus-revealed?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Share&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/p/the-god-jesus-revealed?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share"><span>Share</span></a></p><p><em>The True Gospel Revealed Anew by Jesus</em>, can be freely downloaded and read at <a href="http://www.divinelove.org/TGRA-V">www.divinelove.org/TGRA-V</a></p>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[God Is Love, Not a Cruel Judge]]></title><description><![CDATA[For many people, the Bible has been presented as a book that reveals both love and eternal punishment.]]></description><link>https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/p/god-is-love-not-a-cruel-judge</link><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/p/god-is-love-not-a-cruel-judge</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Voice of God’s Love]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 30 Oct 2025 02:23:01 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!ak0d!,w_256,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F22cdec3b-c2a1-446a-9e52-90ae26c2470b_1024x1024.png" length="0" type="image/jpeg"/><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For many people, the Bible has been presented as a book that reveals both love and eternal punishment. Some passages are taught as if God will cast souls into an unending hell and somehow take pleasure in their suffering. That idea is so painful because it does not sound like love at all. It is not surprising that many people cannot find peace sitting quietly with such a message.</p><p>The truth is, that image of God did not come from the Father. It came from human interpretation, mistranslations, and fear-based teachings that have grown over centuries. Jesus came to show us something far greater than a fearful religion. He came to reveal the Father as Love itself.</p><p>The hells are real, but not as places of endless torture. They are conditions and locations in the spirit world that reflect the state of the soul. When a soul chooses a life apart from love, it finds itself in a place that matches its spiritual darkness. That is not God&#8217;s cruelty. It is simply the law of spiritual harmony. When the soul turns toward the Father, it is lifted out of those conditions and into light. Darkness is not eternal punishment. It is a temporary state that can be changed as the soul opens to love.</p><p>The Father does not punish to satisfy His anger. He works to draw every soul closer, to lift each one out of darkness into His Love. That is why the gift of the New Birth was given. Divine Love is offered to all, and it transforms the soul from the inside.</p><p>There is no delight in suffering in the heart of God. The true nature of the Father is tenderness, patience, mercy, and a love that reaches further than any sin or mistake. Eternal torment is not His plan. The Father&#8217;s plan is restoration, healing, and oneness with Him through His Love.</p><p>This is why Jesus still calls to the soul today. Not to frighten it into belief, but to awaken it to a Love that has no cruelty in it. A Love that lifts, softens, and frees.</p><p>God is not an angry ruler waiting to condemn. God is a Father waiting to embrace.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe now&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/subscribe?"><span>Subscribe now</span></a></p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/p/god-is-love-not-a-cruel-judge?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Share&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/p/god-is-love-not-a-cruel-judge?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share"><span>Share</span></a></p><p>TGRABJ V1, 182</p><p><em>The True Gospel Revealed Anew by Jesus</em>, can be freely downloaded and read at <a href="http://www.divinelove.org/TGRA-V">www.divinelove.org/TGRA-V</a></p>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[The New Birth and the Quiet Coming of Christ]]></title><description><![CDATA[God is Soul, the one who teaches that truth alone can free the heart from sin and error.]]></description><link>https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/p/the-new-birth-and-the-quiet-coming</link><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/p/the-new-birth-and-the-quiet-coming</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Voice of God’s Love]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 28 Oct 2025 04:49:29 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!ak0d!,w_256,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F22cdec3b-c2a1-446a-9e52-90ae26c2470b_1024x1024.png" length="0" type="image/jpeg"/><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>God is Soul, the one who teaches that truth alone can free the heart from sin and error. Do not let the teachings of Jesus become mere words that pass through your ears without meaning. Believe them, take them into your heart, and by doing so, we gain the &#8220;jewels of truth,&#8221; meaning true spiritual understanding and closeness with God. Let Jesus guide you to the Father.</p><p>The New Birth is the inflowing of God&#8217;s Spirit into the soul. As His Love enters, all that draws the heart away from truth and goodness begins to fade. This new birth is not the work of human effort or willpower. It is the power of God&#8217;s Love changing the heart through the action of the Holy Spirit. We cannot make ourselves pure, but when we pray in earnestness, the Holy Spirit will bring God&#8217;s Love into the soul. Then we will realize the change, and it will be real and lasting.</p><p>The Holy Spirit is the power and influence of God, sent to awaken the desire for His Love. It is not God Himself but one of His divine instruments through which He works for the salvation of His children. So let your love for God be pure and sincere, and pray often for the inflowing of His Divine Love, for this is the greatest gift that can come to any soul.</p><p>Jesus is the great Teacher, and the Holy Spirit is God&#8217;s messenger through which Divine Love enters the hearts of the penitent. Jesus saves by His teachings and His example, and the Holy Spirit brings the Love that completes that salvation. Jesus came to show the way to the Father&#8217;s Love and continues to lead souls toward it, for this Love alone can make the soul at-one with the Father.</p><p>His coming will not be seen with outward eyes or marked by worldly signs. He will come quietly, as a still small voice within the soul, drawing the heart toward God. Through this awakening, the true millennium will unfold, not an earthly kingdom but the reign of our Father&#8217;s Love within each heart. Jesus will remain in the spirit world, the beloved Son of the Father, teaching souls to rise to the higher heavens that lead to the very presence of God.</p><p>There is only one God. Jesus and the Holy Spirit are the forces God uses to carry out His great plan to restore souls to harmony with the Father. Through them, the Love of the Father flows into every open and willing soul.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe now&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/subscribe?"><span>Subscribe now</span></a></p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/p/the-new-birth-and-the-quiet-coming?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Share&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/p/the-new-birth-and-the-quiet-coming?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share"><span>Share</span></a></p><p></p><p>TGRABJ V3, 46</p><p><em>The True Gospel Revealed Anew by Jesus</em>, can be freely downloaded and read at <a href="http://www.divinelove.org/TGRA-V">www.divinelove.org/TGRA-V</a></p><p></p>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[Opening The Soul To The Father’s Love]]></title><description><![CDATA[God is not a distant ruler or a judge to be feared.]]></description><link>https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/p/opening-the-soul-to-the-fathers-love</link><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/p/opening-the-soul-to-the-fathers-love</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Voice of God’s Love]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 25 Oct 2025 10:01:33 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!ak0d!,w_256,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F22cdec3b-c2a1-446a-9e52-90ae26c2470b_1024x1024.png" length="0" type="image/jpeg"/><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>God is not a distant ruler or a judge to be feared. He is a loving Father whose greatest joy is to pour His Love into His children. We are not asked to earn that Love or prove ourselves worthy of it. We are simply invited to open our hearts and let it enter.</p><p>The Father&#8217;s Love is always near, waiting for the soul that longs for it. When we reach out in sincerity and faith, His Love begins to flow into us through the quiet working of His Spirit. It softens what is hard, heals what is wounded, and brings peace where there was once restlessness.</p><p>This Love is more than comfort. It is transforming. It changes the very substance of the soul, lifting it from being merely human to being divine in nature. Through it, we become one with the Father in a way that no ceremony, creed, or belief can ever accomplish.</p><p>Faith opens the way. Not the kind of faith that demands proof, but the quiet trust that God listens to the yearning of the heart even before words are formed. When the soul truly desires His Love, it cannot be denied.</p><p>As His Love fills us, fear begins to fade. The heart grows gentler. Mercy takes the place of judgment, and forgiveness becomes easier. We begin to see others not as strangers or enemies but as children of the same loving Father.</p><p>In His Love there is safety. No darkness can enter where this Love abides. It strengthens the will to choose what is right and gives the courage to let go of what no longer serves the soul.</p><p>This is the great truth: that God&#8217;s Love is real, that it is personal, and that it can dwell within us now. It is the power that transforms a life, the light that endures when all else passes away. To live in that Love is to know peace, and to walk in it is to find our way home to the Father.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe now&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/subscribe?"><span>Subscribe now</span></a></p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/p/opening-the-soul-to-the-fathers-love?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Share&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/p/opening-the-soul-to-the-fathers-love?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share"><span>Share</span></a></p><p>TGRABJ V1, 40</p><p><em>The True Gospel Revealed Anew by Jesus</em>, can be freely downloaded and read at <a href="http://www.divinelove.org/TGRA-V">www.divinelove.org/TGRA-V</a></p>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Two Loves: Human and Divine]]></title><description><![CDATA[In this world, love is often spoken of as the greatest force we can know.]]></description><link>https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/p/the-two-loves-human-and-divine</link><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/p/the-two-loves-human-and-divine</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Voice of God’s Love]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 22 Oct 2025 10:02:34 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!ak0d!,w_256,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F22cdec3b-c2a1-446a-9e52-90ae26c2470b_1024x1024.png" length="0" type="image/jpeg"/><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In this world, love is often spoken of as the greatest force we can know. Yet not all love is the same. There is the love that comes naturally to us as human beings, the affection that draws us to family, friends, and those we care for deeply. And there is another Love, higher and eternal, that comes only from God.</p><p>Human love is a precious gift. It makes life warmer and brings people together. It can comfort, encourage, and heal. But as beautiful as it is, it changes with time. Feelings shift, circumstances alter, and hearts can grow distant. Even a mother&#8217;s love, the strongest of all natural loves, can fade or lose some of its strength.</p><p>This kind of love belongs to the natural world. It is the love that joins hearts, builds families, and gives us our sweetest human joys. But it cannot give the soul eternal happiness or union with God. It remains within the limits of what is human.</p><p>There is, however, a greater Love available to every soul, the Divine Love of the Father. Unlike human affection, this Love never changes or fades. It is drawn into the soul through sincere prayer and longing for God&#8217;s presence. Once received, it transforms the soul&#8217;s very nature and lifts it into oneness with the Divine.</p><p>Even the love between true soulmates, the most perfect form of natural love, becomes complete only when both souls open to the inflowing of this higher Love. Divine Love gives stability, purity, and joy that natural affection alone cannot provide.</p><p>The message is simple but profound: cherish the love you have for one another, nurture it, and let it grow, but do not stop there. Seek the greater Love that comes from the Father. It will strengthen every other love, carry you through every trial, and bring the peace and happiness that last forever.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe now&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/subscribe?"><span>Subscribe now</span></a></p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/p/the-two-loves-human-and-divine?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Share&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/p/the-two-loves-human-and-divine?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share"><span>Share</span></a></p><p>TGRABJ V2, 21</p><p><em>The True Gospel Revealed Anew by Jesus</em>, can be freely downloaded and read at <a href="http://www.divinelove.org/TGRA-V">www.divinelove.org/TGRA-V</a></p><p></p><p></p>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[The True Forgiveness of Sin]]></title><description><![CDATA[Forgiveness is not a transaction.]]></description><link>https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/p/the-true-forgiveness-of-sin</link><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/p/the-true-forgiveness-of-sin</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Voice of God’s Love]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 20 Oct 2025 02:08:21 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!ak0d!,w_256,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F22cdec3b-c2a1-446a-9e52-90ae26c2470b_1024x1024.png" length="0" type="image/jpeg"/><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Forgiveness is not a transaction. It is not something earned, nor is it a debt wiped away by another&#8217;s sacrifice. True forgiveness is something deeper and more tender. It is the healing of the soul itself.</p><p>When we turn to God with humility and longing, something sacred begins to happen within us. His Love enters quietly, like light filling a darkened room. This Love does not overlook sin. It removes it. It does not excuse what is wrong. It transforms what is wounded. Every unloving thought, every selfish desire, every trace of hardness begins to dissolve as the Father&#8217;s Love takes its place.</p><p>This is the real meaning of forgiveness. It is not God changing His mind about us. It is God changing us. When that Love fills the soul, there is no room left for guilt or fear. The heart that once turned away is now turned toward Him, and everything that once separated us begins to disappear.</p><p>Forgiveness matters because it restores our harmony with God. It heals the distance between the mortal and the Divine. It awakens the soul to the truth that we are not forgotten, not condemned, but deeply loved, so much so that Love itself is given to us to make us whole.</p><p>When we let this Love work within us, we discover that forgiveness is not only a mercy. It is a rebirth. The burden lifts, the heart softens, and peace begins to dwell where pain once lived.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe now&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/subscribe?"><span>Subscribe now</span></a></p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/p/the-true-forgiveness-of-sin?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Share&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/p/the-true-forgiveness-of-sin?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share"><span>Share</span></a></p><p><em>The True Gospel Revealed Anew by Jesus</em>, can be freely downloaded and read at <a href="http://www.divinelove.org/TGRA-V">www.divinelove.org/TGRA-V</a></p>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Love That Transforms The Soul]]></title><description><![CDATA[Every soul was created with love, yet there is a higher Love that does not belong to our human nature.]]></description><link>https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/p/the-love-that-transforms-the-soul</link><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/p/the-love-that-transforms-the-soul</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Voice of God’s Love]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 17 Oct 2025 10:02:35 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!ak0d!,w_256,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F22cdec3b-c2a1-446a-9e52-90ae26c2470b_1024x1024.png" length="0" type="image/jpeg"/><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Every soul was created with love, yet there is a higher Love that does not belong to our human nature. It is the Divine Love of our Father, waiting for each heart that turns to Him. It is not the love that was given to us at birth, nor the love that moves us to kindness or good deeds. Those are beautiful qualities of our natural love, but Divine Love is something greater. It is God&#8217;s own essence, the very substance of His Being, and it can live within us if we truly seek it.</p><p>This Love is not automatically ours. It must be chosen. It cannot be bought, earned, or received through ceremony. The only way to draw it into the soul is by sincere prayer and the heartfelt longing that opens us to the Father. When the soul yearns with all its depth for His Love, the Holy Spirit carries that longing to God and brings back a stream of Love that begins to fill and transform the soul.</p><p>The change reaches deeper than feeling, renewing the soul with the very Divinity of the Father&#8217;s Love. It begins to take on the qualities of the Father such as peace, forgiveness, patience, and a goodness that does not depend on outer things. This transformation does not happen through belief or effort but through direct communion with God.</p><p>Natural love can inspire noble things, yet it cannot hold the world together. It can be clouded by pride, ambition, and the search for power. Divine Love alone can create a brotherhood that endures, a peace that lasts, and a joy that does not fade when life becomes difficult. It is the one foundation strong enough to bind hearts forever.</p><p>This Love is near to every soul, waiting quietly for the heart to open and ask for it. God never forces His Love upon anyone, yet when we sincerely seek it with earnest longings, He responds. Such seeking can only come from a humble and repentant heart, one that has turned toward Him in faith and desire. In that humility, the heart softens and becomes receptive, and the Divine Love flows in, filling the soul with the living presence of God.</p><p>That receiving our Father&#8217;s Love is the pathway to His Kingdom and to eternal life.</p><p></p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe now&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/subscribe?"><span>Subscribe now</span></a></p><p></p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/p/the-love-that-transforms-the-soul?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Share&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/p/the-love-that-transforms-the-soul?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share"><span>Share</span></a></p><p></p><p>&#8220;The Padgett Messages, known as the <em><strong>True Gospel Revealed Anew by Jesus</strong></em>, were written down by James Padgett in the early 20th century.

Yet the true meaning is something far deeper and more beautiful.</p><p>The real atonement, the word itself meaning <em>at one ment</em>, is not about blood or sacrifice. It is about the soul becoming one with the Father through the inflowing of His Love. No price was ever demanded. No wrath had to be appeased. God has always loved His children. What separated us from Him was not His anger but our lack of harmony with His Love.</p><p>God&#8217;s Love for the world is so great that He sent His son to lead us home by example, through prayer and sincere communion with the Father, and through his own transformation by the Father&#8217;s Love.</p><p>Through prayer and longing for that Love, we open our hearts to the same transforming Power that Jesus received in full measure. It is this Love that purifies, heals, and makes the soul divine, not belief in a crucifixion but direct communion with the living God.</p><p>When we let this Love enter, we no longer need to feel distant, guilty, or afraid. We become part of that great harmony that Jesus came to show and that our Father still offers freely to every soul who sincerely asks.</p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">Thanks for reading!

What truly matters is what fills the soul. When we open our hearts to receive more of God&#8217;s Love, we begin to experience a peace and joy that no earthly love can give.</p><p>God is always ready to pour His Love into us. He waits patiently, gently knocking at the door of our hearts. All He asks is that we let Him in. When we do, His presence becomes real, not as a far-off idea but as something living within us. The more we welcome that Love, the more we feel His closeness guiding our thoughts, calming our worries, and giving meaning to our life.</p><p>It&#8217;s easy to let the noise of life crowd out what really matters. But if we keep turning our hearts toward God and ask for more of His Love, everything begins to change. Our fears fade. Anger and envy lose their grip. The need to compare or compete falls away. In their place grows a deeper peace, a quiet happiness that cannot be shaken.</p><p>Prayer is the key that opens the way. When we pray sincerely, not out of duty but from longing, God listens. He never forces His Love upon us; we must want it and choose it. Each prayer, each moment of humble desire, opens the door a little wider for His Love to enter.</p><p>That Love changes the soul. It quiets the restless mind, opens the heart to mercy, and brings a sense of belonging that never leaves. With it comes a deep knowing that we are safe in the care of a loving Father.</p><p>In the end, everything else fades. The only lasting joy comes from the Love that makes us one with our Heavenly Father. It is the one thing worth seeking above all else, the treasure that brings peace now and forever.</p><p></p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.voiceofgodslove.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">Thanks for reading!
