The New Message from God
I am curious if anyone here has heard of, or has any experience with, the New Message from God. It is a modern religious movement, which I have been practicing and studying for some time. I am interested in discussing the New Message and hearing people's experience of it.

Re: The New Message from God
I've never heard of this either.
I'm curious to find out how God sends his new message these days.
You figure Moses was given stone tablets and Joseph Smith was given metal plates. I imagine that God might give the person to receive his message a new laptop or maybe a flash drive.

Re: The New Message from God
Hello Wil,
Thank you for the welcome. I haven't posted here since '04, and it's a whole new site now! I suspect there are other practitioners of the New Message who are lurking. Perhaps we can draw them out.
Hello Francis king,
I'll try to give a brief explanation of this vast teaching. Here goes:
The New Message describes itself as a warning, a blessing and a preparation for the protection and the advancement of the human family.
Central concerns to the New Message are the converging thresholds of: humanity depleting its fundamental natural resources (like soil, fresh water and fossil fuels) and coming into contact with other intelligent life in the universe. The former is often referred to as the "Great Waves of Change" and the latter is "humanity's emergence into the Greater Community."
Some of the spiritual practices of the New Message from God are stillness meditation; focused contemplation; periodic review of one's health, relationships, providership, and spiritual development; and bringing life decisions to Knowledge.
Knowledge, in the New Message, refers to the deeper mind within each person, the mind connected to God, the mind that knows with certainty, the mind that sometimes manifests as conscience or deep intuition.
The practices of the New Message are largely to discover and connect with one's God-given purpose in life, and to build a bridge to Knowledge, learning to trust it, abide with it, and be a vehicle for it in the world.
Hello TealLeaf,
The New Message is being received as spoken word, from God's Angels, through the mouth of MV Summers. Perhaps this is similar to how Mohammad received his Message, or what Moses heard from the burning bush. Unlike those times, however, it now gets captured on an audio recorder. From there it's often transcribed and published online or in books.
There have been over 750 of these recordings so far, from 1983 through today. They are not all available, but more and more every year. And yes, many of them have wound up on laptops and flash drives!
Regards to you all,
William

Re: The New Message from God
Call me skeptical, but I find it odd that we would have such of a need for concern against any alien invasion. We are doing pretty crappy fighting amongst ourselves, much less some extraterrestial race.
In the second place, their Declaration of Human Soveriegnty is in tone with the U.S Declaration of Independence, couched in terms such as "We, the People of Earth" and "Therefore, we hold that all individuals in all worlds are created equal and are endowed by the Creator with sacred and inalienable rights." Sound familiar?
But as we anticipate such an invasion, we can be rest assured that we will have assistance from our "Allies" from the "Greater Community". We can resist this force that the "Allies" call "the Collectives" (it is not futile). Collectives do not value human freedom (and neither does the Borg).
The basic Message can be found in a couple of books: "The Allies of Humanity Book One" and "The Allies of Humanity Book Two". Apparently, the first book is offered free online. But you will have to buy the second book (on Amazon for $11.21). How's that saying go? "The first one is free..."
But of course, we can do our part in spreading the Message by our charitable contributions, as their Support page shows:
Quote:
Your tax-deductible donations to the mission of The Society are greatly needed now to enable The Society to continue to publish the Greater Community Books of Knowledge, to spread the Allies of Humanity message worldwide and to teach the Greater Community Way of Knowledge in order to prepare humanity for our future within a Greater Community of intelligent life
Here is how you can support The Society’s work and be a part of this great service to humanity:
- Contribute one-time gifts and donations
- Become a Friend of The Society by making a pledge of monthly support.
The Friends of The Society are people who recognize the importance of the Allies Message and feel called to support the mission of The Society on an ongoing basis. Friends’ monthly contributions are the lifeblood of The Society, allowing us to maintain an office from which to support our readers and to spread our message and to maintain the day-to-day operations of a non-profit organization. They also enable The Society to maintain our Sanctuary for contemplative Services, retreats and public events. Will you join us in our mission by becoming a Friend of The Society?
Other ways to support The Society:
- Mention The Society in your estate plan (bequests/legacies, etc.)
- Make a donation of Appreciated Investments or Real Estate
- Mention The Society as a beneficiary in your investments and/or insurance policies
- Establish a Living Trust
- Help create an Endowment for The Society and The Teaching
– Help with our donor/benefactor search to fund The Society’s mission into perpetuity.
-Become a student of the New Message and part of a growing, worldwide community of learners
Will you join us in our mission and
begin to leave your legacy for the future?

Seriously I say to you, I an angel of the one.... Have descended to you from the one, in the name of Love. I have sat in the very presence of the one, and the one Spoke softly upon my ear this;
Man, Be good to yourself and be good to one another, do not humble
yourself upon thy brother, but do not attempt to rise above thy brother. Love one another, just like you love yourself... Be, the, best... That -you- can be... Do not do this because you seek redemption, do not do this because you seek salvation.... Do it Because it is what the world is in dire need of, it is what you, man, are in dire need of, do it because it is what your fallen brother is in dire need of.... Reach your hand and be your brothers salvation.
The one then conveyed upon his loyal creation with a comforting, strong touch to my shoulder; Man, Do not look up for answers, they are not here... Do not look up for solutions, for they are not here... But look ahead of yourself and open your eyes... Truly, I say to you.. You know full well, what the answers are, you know full well what the solutions are... Stop looking to pass the responsablities.... upon another so you can wipe your hands clean with the issues and claim them not to be your problems.....
You dwell upon this sphere of life.... You only have yourselves to blame... Greed and hate must cease.The one then left me this final message before my descent, Stop creating custom made gods, stop creating groups, and factions and sects and clans, and churches and "cults" You are all for unity, yet you all encourage seperation and division between one another. You will gladly stand and argue with your fellow man over the fact how I exisit, and how I appear, who I approve, What rituals I wish from you, what clothing I command you to wear. And what name I demand you claim............. You, are, missing, the, point......
You are not a Russian, nor a black, nor a white, nor a jew, nor an eskimo, nor a christian, nor a muslim, nor a buddhist, nor a pagan....... You were all created equal, you are man. Live as a man, and stop trying to be something else. Finally stop worshipping man, for all I require is you to love one another and heed this message, and this is all I require, remove yourself from thy knees.... Raise that lowly head and eyes of unworthyness.... Act how you believe I would act and grasp the day. For the only way is one......
In Peace.
The one.
================================
He gave me that "new message".... Am genuine? Or am I fake? Who decides? Does it matter? I find the more and more groups that appear with their own personal messages, and agendas defeat my concept of religion(love peace) they also defeat my seriousness in religion and I feel they make god look like an ass.......... Sorry.... Just my opinion... There are no new messages needed... There are no new gods needed..... We just need to pull our heads out and start doing something......

Re: The New Message from God
The only alien invasion that may happen will be from idiot Neo-N*zi`s, claiming to be from Space.
Trying to be our gods.
Thats why I will try to shoot them down ASAP.

ok, wil, if you want to get all moral-relativism about it, but i'm pretty sure judaism's contribution to human civilisation is a matter of record. i'm not entirely sure this mv summers character has done anything other than con credulous new-agers out of their disposable income.
