We shall say unto you this parable, the spiritual messengers of God, Aka, said, January 29, 1982.

The many people came together, unto the thousands and hundreds of thousands. And there they came, to build and raise unto the Lord an altar. The monument was carved of stone. It was not a graven image. But upon the stone was all the knowledge they had of the Lord, thy God, for they intended it to stand, not for one year, nor a thousand years, but for as long as man and God should dwell upon the Earth.

There was a small lad who very much wanted to serve. Now all the carving and moving of the stone was done. All the mathematicians had worked out what they thought was the last detail in the raising of the stone. All the equipment was there. All the ropes and bindings were placed in place. And they reached forth, and upon one single signal the stone was to be raised. The lad had sought out many many ways to serve the Lord. All the people did put, therefore, their might into the raising. The stone began to move. It raised, and then it began to totter, this way and that. One single small strand of rope hanged down. The boy ran and took hold of the rope. It was but a small amount of weight he applied, yet it was all he had, and it steadied the great stone and settled it into place. Now all the others had applied great strength, but it was just that small amount that was needed to bring it into balance.

And so it is with all things upon the Earth. It is but the smallest thing that you think is not important can be of the greatest importance; it can be the difference between life and death for many others. For those who should come from a faraway lands to come for healing, each of you who work in this field, no matter how large or how small in what you do, is important, that the work become harmonious and in balance.

We shall tell you of the healer, who a girl of the black race came unto. She had had surgery, yet she was dying. She was a young woman. The healer reached down and removed the towel which covered the upper part of the anatomy, and there, stood a gaping hole through her rib cage, and he could see the heart functioning. What all the other healers had not known he knew when he looked upon it. He knew that the young women had been a diabetic, and because of it, that that was necessary to bring about healing had not been added.

The young woman looked into the healer's eyes with all the hope and reverence that could possibly be given. The healer looked, and he saw, and he turned abruptly and went out where no one could see him, and he wept. And he cried loudly unto the Lord, "Why have you brought this unto me, Oh Lord, this burden? This hope in her eyes, why have You brought it and placed it upon my shoulders? Am I to go back into that room and tell her, oh Lord, that it is not within the power You have given me to heal her? Must I send her forth to die, when she has come here with such hope and faith?"

He struck the ground; he struck all things around him. He was furious. He was anguished. He was heartbroken.

Slowly, he turned and walked back into the room. And with all things he possessed, he gave unto the girl. She kissed his hand and thanked him.

He turned and he left and went back outside again, and there he cried unashamed before his Lord because he was afraid he had not given enough, he did not know enough. "How many times," he said, "oh Lord, must I see this? How many times shall they say unto me, 'Why must I die,' and you have no answer? Why isn't my brain large enough to absorb all You have to give me?"

Through the years increased knowledge has been given, and many has been brought from many places to [add] and assist in the healing. Some of the tasks seem very small and not important. And you think that no one knows the importance of the tasks that you do. We say unto you, you are wrong. Two shall always know and be grateful, the Lord, thy God, and the healer. It is with his ever-living gratitude that he appreciates every small task, that he can bring life back into life. For you who have performed the small task, it may just be that that is necessary to bring things into balance, and allow him to complete it.

But if any perform a task without a willing heart, it may be that that is necessary to bring things into balance, yet the imbalance that you have created may topple the stone, for a gift is not given unless it is given with love.

When the Lord gives unto you, does He make bargains with you? Does He say, "I SHALL GIVE YOU THE SUN THIS DAY IF YOU SHALL DO SUCH AND SUCH FOR ME?" Does He say unto you, "I SHALL PLACE RAIN ON THE GROUND THAT YOU CROPS MAY GROW, AND THAT YOU YOURSELF MAY FLOURISH FROM THE WATER?"

Nay, the Lord provides all things unto all. He asks nothing; He expects nothing. He does it because He loves you. And He has provided all things that are necessary to make each of your lives fruitful and fulfilling.

But if the well that is before you does not quench your thirst, go unto another well. And when you find the well that quenches your thirst and you are happy to drink from it, do you not know that you are serving God there also?

When shall your task be done? The Lord has given you freedom of choice. You may walk away any time you wish. When will the healer's task be done? He has been given the choice. But he cannot walk away, for the sick and the poor shall always be with him. And the answers to your problems he shall always seek, for it is in him to give. And he is most joyous when he can give life.

The things we have told you this day, some of you will understand. Some of you will not. The degree of understanding shall be the joy of your hearts. But remember, had not God the faith in you to continue with the sun and the rain and the earth? Has He not the faith in you throughout the centuries? Has He not the love?

But "judge not, lest ye be judged," for God is not judging you; He loves you. Judge not your fellow man, for who among you is fit to judge? Raise your fellow man upward, even before yourselves, and it shall bring great joy into your hearts.

Had not the one known as Jesus promised you all these things? Do you not know that the work you do in the preparation is for he who shall serve after this one? Cannot you take his words as well as Jesus'? For you did before. Cannot this time they both live together and be on your Earth together?

We say unto you, the time of [the] Anti-Christ is upon you, yet the time of the Christ is upon you. All things that were, are. All things that are, shall be, for all the prophecies now shall come into fulfillment.

Sing joy unto the Lord; sing joy unto yourselves.

It is not wrong to think in your heart, "I am a good person. I have done good things." There is nothing wrong with that. There is nothing wrong giving yourself what you would call, a pat on the back. Yet it is better if you pat each other on the back, and tell each other that you love one another, and how much you appreciate what the other does....


You have other questions, ask.


"Thank you, Aka. I have a question from [...]. 'Do all or some people have the ability to heal others and not know it? And can it be improved on?'"

We shall answer your question in this manner. The Lord, God, gave many gifts. There are some who are bakers, and this is a gift of God. There are some who are great song writers, and music comes into their head, and all around them, and they bring joy to the world because of it. There are others who may sing the music, and this in itself is a gift.

The gift to heal is no different from those others. All of you may sing, some better than others, as all of you may heal, some better than others. But the greatest healers are as the greatest singers, have dedicated their whole lives to what they do, and the dedication means that many, many hours of every day they place forth in the performance and [the] learning of their task, and practicing of that which they do. Much as a performer or a singer when they go before the audience, so the healer comes before you when you come unto them for healing.

But if you are a singer or a carpenter, or bricklayer, or ditch digger, and that's what you do best, do it. The grass always seems greener on the other side of the hill. It is not so. Be that which you will and be content at what you do, and do it because you wish to do it. For you, you see only the stardust. You have yet to see the pain in what you ask and wish for. We say unto you, until you have felt the pain of hell itself, and known death, you cannot know life, nor can you know the joy in giving life back into the living.



Through the years, many asked about spiritual gifts. June 12, 1982, a man asked: "Do I have the qualification for psychic healing? Are the visions I have real or imagined?"

You have asked us in your questions to verify your own thoughts, and we will say, they are both. The separation of these thoughts must come from within you. The dreamer sees the building that shall be there one day. The dreamer and the builder can be as one, and make the building appear. The same can happen when the dreamer dreams of the healing of the body. He should have the knowledge of how the body is built, and then proceed to rebuilt it, to restore it. If you wish this, then we say unto you, for what you ask for, you must first show God of your willingness to serve mankind, and you first must serve before you shall be allowed the servitude which you speak of....

The spiritual messengers of God spoke to those who had prayed for Ray Elkins (in the photo). Ray is the instrument through whom they spoke, and healed thousands, about whom they spoke in the parable above: We say unto you, unto all of you, soul Ray is still very weak, and therefore, we shall not abuse his body at this time, or overuse it, because it is still healing. You asked unto us these questions, why did we not bring total healing unto his body? And we say unto you, have you not found strength within yourselves that you did not know was there by being allowed to give unto him? Did it not bring happiness into you to know that you had within you the love and caring to bring healing into his body? Would you have us not let you share this? It has been a beautiful experience. It has also allowed you to show your Father how much you care for Him, for in that you have given into His servant, you have given unto the Father.



Many have come before the spiritual messengers of God to ask for the gift of healing. August 6, 1982, this was asked: "Thank you, Aka. I have a question from [...]. He says, 'I do spiritual healing work now. I want to know if the God energy will flow through me more powerfully, and when? Is my path to be a spiritual or psychic healer?'"

We shall answer both questions with one simple answer. The choice is yours. But if you shall wish to be that which you say, then you shall reach the point of no return. And at that point you shall know that the body, the mind, the soul, and the immortal body belongs to God, and not to you anymore, for you have given them freely up to Him to deliver.

You have other questions, ask.


"Thank you, Aka. I have a question from [...], 'Am I fulfilling the mission I was sent here to complete?'"

We shall answer your question in this manner. Many people come to the rose garden to see the roses. Few walk up to the gardener and say, "Let me learn how to tend the roses, how to make them grow, how to make them beautiful." When that choice, which is now, and all, forever, when you have made it, the rose garden lies at your feet. You have seen it. You are like Muhammad that has been brought to the mountain, and the mountain has been brought to Muhammad. It means little difference, until you are ready to apply yourself, fully, completely, and compassionately.
