The God is Greater than Love
Geraldine Cummins (1890 – 1969) spiritually communicated with F. W. H. Myers (1843 – 1901; a British poet and a founder of the Society for Psychical Research) and delivered the book The Road to Immorality written based on the spiritual communication.Whether you believe or not that there can be communications with the spirits of deceased persons, the descriptions in the book match most of reports of near-death experiences, which became popular since Raymond Moody issuing books on such experiences since 1970s, in terms of death, the afterworld, and states of human souls after death. However, the Vatican and other Christian churches have not encouraged people to promote the notion of immorality of human souls based on near-death experiences or modern spiritualism, which started in Europe and America in the 19th century. Indeed, they did not authorize Swedenborg who wrote many books about the spirit world based on his own experiences of seeing the afterlife while living in this world in the 18th century, although he was a pious Christian (but not a Catholic).
In these books of Swedenborg and the modern spiritualism, there are some unique views on the God, Christ Jesus, the spirit world, etc. that are different from those officially adopted by the Vatican and other Christian churches. Especially, views and thoughts on the God and Christ Jesus are important in judging divine authenticity of those books, if they are against Catholic creeds.
In The Road to Immorality, the spirit of Myers talked through Cummins that living people with finite minds should conceive the God with the expression that "the God is greater than love," although Christ Jesus said that "the God is love."
It is because Christ Jesus used this expression in a different way and meaning than those for past people who had used the word love with human meanings. The fact that Christ Jesus used the expression "the God is love" means that only Christ Jesus among all the human being who had ever lived in this world understood the true meaning of this expression.
This is an argument that cannot be discussed with a slicker or a tool of Satan. If we interpret the words of Christ Jesus from a human pint of view or as words with human meaning, the expression of "The God is love" might sound simply emotional. Nonetheless, Christ Jesus also said that "The God is the Spirit." In this case, nobody should wrongly think that the God once lived in this world but died at a certain time.
Anyway, non-nonsense men involved in spiritual matters seem to see the God as the the supreme ruler of the spirit world. Even non-nonsense spirits that have spiritually communicated with living men seem to admit that they are all under power, dignity, glory, and love of the God.
The Vatican and other churches should change their attitudes, views, and policies on modern spiritualism. They have to admit that every human being has his own soul that will enter into the spirit world to be a spirit leaving its body after death in this world like Christ Jesus as the modern spiritualism suggests.
Luke 10, King James Version
15 And thou, Capernaum, which art exalted to heaven, shalt be thrust down to hell.
16 He that heareth you heareth me; and he that despiseth you despiseth me; and he that despiseth me despiseth him that sent me.
17 And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name.
18 And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.
19 Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
20 Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.
