Chapter 1
1. In the beginning the Word was. The word of I'Hua Mazda spoke through
the gods. Thus was the word with all lawfully ordained gods crowned by
The Great Spirit E-O-IH.
2. I'Hua Mazda, The Creator, was, before any other was brought into
life. Therefore all things came into being through the expression of
I'Hua'Mazda, the everlasting word.
3. All things came to be through Him; and without The Great Spirit none
entered into the consciousness of themselves as a separate I AM.
4. What came into manifestation came through the Spirit of I'Hua'Mazda,
whose word is continually echoing throughout creation: and Life itself
shall always be to mankind the evidence of The Light beyond all men.
5. Ever doth light shine into darkness; nor can the dark overcome the
light, because both conditions are alike unto I'Hua'Mazda, The One GreatLife of All.
6. Came a man whose life was ordained before his birth into corpor, and
this man was born iesu, and named Joshu.
7. None amongst mankind was sent to testify to him, or introduce him,
for in himself he personified the All-Light within the limitations of
mortality.
8. Nor spake he other than as directed by the light beyond all other
lights; for he sought not that which is reckoned glory in the sight of
men. He spoke as inspired, and his words were words of truth, directed
unto his own nation.
9. The light, the truth light, that illumines all mankind, had always
2
7/29/2019 The Gospel of Iesu - Don Pickard
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-gospel-of-iesu-don-pickard 3/32
been with men, since the beginning; and at no time had mortals been left
to flounder in darkness, unsupported by the hosts of the higher heavens.
10. I'Hua'Mazda spoke through many iesu, and thus planted faith in
I'Hua' Mazda so that it was firmly rooted on the earth.
11. He came unto his own, and only a minority of his people recognized
that he was iesu. Thus these who perceived the real authority behind
him, blessed Eloih, The Great I AM, who had given them a prophet, iesu
at birth.
12. In the main his own people did not take him to themselves, becauseof a spiritual darkness over them, and the influence of idol-worship.
In particular Baal and the goddess Astaroth.
13. Yes to as many who believed in his doctrines and carried them out in
their lives, he was able to reveal the secret mysteries, the art of
healing, the hidden gnosis; so that these grew wiser in spiritual
perception than all the rest.
14. To as many who embraced faith in The Great Spirit E-O-IH, was the
door opened to the true path in life that leads to eternal resurrection
and ascension for the soul.
15. Joshu revealed the true, the real Father, and the grace of the
Father shone brightly in his deeds and words; he sought nothing in life
for himself, desiring only to do the will of Eloih to the uttermost
humanly possible.
16. We saw the glory of The Great Spirit in him and loved deeply that
which we saw.
17. Grace was poured plentifully into him, and he gave it top all who
asked of him. In the name of The Great Spirit E-O-IH he blessed them
3

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-gospel-of-iesu-don-pickard 4/32
all.
18. As Chine had invoked the sacred name of E-O-IH and raised his hands
in blessing on the sick, even to raising the dead, so likewise did the
last of the prophets.
19. He revealed the full meaning of the laws Moses had taught. He came
not to abolish the law, but to re-state it, to express it in terms of
mortal conduct.
20. Thus those who accepted his doctrines did already in the earth-life
begin the life of resurrection and ascension. The real power becametheirs by faith in the name of The All-Person, The Creator, The Great
Spirit E-O-IH.
21. Other faiths had not this power, and so were impotent; and this
truth holds just as true today as it did in the earth-life of the last
of the prophets, the iesu Joshu.
CHAPTER 2
1. I, The Great Spirit, write the gospel of Iesu. It is the words I
write on the soul, and they express themselves as that which is acted out
as living illustrations in the life of Mine iesu.
2. Not only is the doctrine of truth, the deeds also are of truth. Thus
are My illustrations doubly illustrated, that all may understand.
3. Of what useful purpose all the gospels ever inspired, if they change
not a man in his course? My gospels come with real power of spirit,
full of potency, and change a man so that he becomes to himself as a new
man.
4. By My Spirit doth a man perceive the truth in My words, so that he is
4
7/29/2019 The Gospel of Iesu - Don Pickard
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-gospel-of-iesu-don-pickard 5/32
sure of the path in life he must follow.
5. Not a little glory do I preach, unto one nation, in one cycle of the
history of a star-world. I speak through many iesu in order to reach
the many.
6. Time cometh when iesu have done that which I inspired them to do,
which was, to establish Me in the hearts and minds of the many: and when
that labor is finished, I raise up many, not of iesu, and I qualify them
by My inspiration so that continuity is in all our labor.
7. For without continuity in a labor, from beginning to end, it becomesa thing disjointed, and confuses mortals; because they fail to see a
logical progression in it.
8. So I inspire mortals to sift and sieve for the pure truth in all
doctrines. Yes, I inspire t hem with capacity to perceive the true and
the false even in that which is purported to have come of Me.
9. I give to each generation the capacity to possess greater knowledge than
those before them. In their judgement, that which could not previously
be seen for what it was, is now plain for all to see.
10. They judge accepted doctrine by My Light within their
understanding. Thus the true and the good stand out, but the false and
that which cometh not of Me, also stands out in their judgment; and so
it falls by the way, because it is not at-one with truth spoken and
truth acted out in life itself.
11. Iesu speaks My words. They speak not of themselves. Therefore will
those who follow in their path speak My words, and not their own. Judge
thou all gospels with this in mind.

Chapter 3
1. I ask not that mortals have faith in Me through the
wonders in magic performed, but through the doctrine,
reaching the heart.
2. Gospels that overawe mortals by emphasis on miraculous
come not of Me. They are inventions of angelic minds
having used my doctrines in part for their own purposes.
3. A gospel revealing normality of development from infancy
of iesu can seem reasonable. Judge to see which is of Me.
4. Some iesu have performed great feats; others worked no
miracle, yet My Power and My Wisdom overshadowed each. Judge
on the merit contained in the doctrine.
5. As the development is in nature, so likewise with the
spirit of a mortal. Nothing that promises quick salvationhath My Wisdom in it.
6. It is the blending of many elements that make the spirit
strong. This is orderly growth.
7. I have given thee of My Powers to reason, discern and
conclude; use these powers. Use thou these powers to good
purpose and the true gospel of iesu thy spirit will impart
to the corporeal senses.
8. Whatever thou believest, in time it will be My Voice,
speaking in soul-words to thy spirit that will become he only
truth that is, truth to thee.
9. Then shalt thou discard former part-revelations of truth
6
7/29/2019 The Gospel of Iesu - Don Pickard
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-gospel-of-iesu-don-pickard 7/32
whether in thy gospels or any sacred writings established
by men and angels. My gospel I will write on thy soul, Myself.
Chapter 4
1. That the many shall find faith in the true and real Father, and be
happy in life, are thee words written.
2. As the womb is to the unborn child, so is corpor to the spirit of a
mortal. Corpor is no more the real life than is the womb the real life
of the unborn child. The real life begins when mortals die to corpor,
and see it no more through the senses of corpor.
3. Alike to those having faith in the true and real Father, and those not
having faith in this which we declare true.
4. Therefore rejoice in life; because thou art already immortal.
5. This truth cancels the premises upon which other faiths wereestablished. Thou may'st call on Gods, Lords, and saviors till thou art
weary of praying, and nothing will disprove the reality thou shalt
encounter in Es.
6. Thou wilt enquire of those in "Life", who will declare:- "We are
sustained in "Life" by the true and real Father". When sufficient have
echoed these woes, thou wilt perceive the irrelevance of much believed
necessary for salvation.
7. Because of thy great, almost sudden joy, thou wilt desire to convey
this to mortals; but few will believe, being unwilling to shed their
beliefs. Thy own happiness will be marred by this unbelief in mortals,
who know not the true and real Father.
8. The Creator hath given each immortality by virtue of the fact of
7
7/29/2019 The Gospel of Iesu - Don Pickard
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-gospel-of-iesu-don-pickard 8/32
mortality. Nor can the words of any created be of more effect than the
words of The Creator, or change this in any way.
9. "Life" is The Creator's gift; and is His alone to give.
10. If men seek for happiness in life, release from the burden of guilt,
then this gospel will be of greater effectiveness than promises made,
in which they cast themselves helplessly on another for salvation.
11. Iesu spoke as moved by The Great Spirit, and their doctrine differs
not from our words. Iesu and we are one in The Creator's emancipated
worlds.
12. Happiness in life comes of faith in the true Father, who writes
living truths upon the soul by direct inspiration.
13. A greater gospel than any heard hitherto is this gospel. It is
written both in words touched by The Spirit with "Life", and by The
All-Person on the soul.
14. The Great Spirit E-O-IH is The One Life of all who enter "Life".
15. No greater gospel will ever be revealed to mortals. It is, the
highest truth any man receives; it gives the soul deep and utter peace.
The lesser beliefs left too many question marks and doubt to be of any
permanent value.
CHAPTER 5
1. Faith is the hope within, that faith in the unseen will be
vindicated. It is the belief in the mortal heart that the unseen is! -
that in it are unseen worlds you will one day see; just as you see and
hear in the earth-life.
8
7/29/2019 The Gospel of Iesu - Don Pickard
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-gospel-of-iesu-don-pickard 9/32
2. Iesu sees and hears the unseen just as mortals see and hear things
around them. There is no need for them to have faith in the unseen;
because it is plain and obvious. But not so is it with the majority of
mortals.
3. The mortal has faith in things objectively perceived through the
corporeal senses. Even these do not always see reality as it really is;
so to just have all-faith in these, is open to question. Yet the mortal
has more faith in these than in the unseen, where the real is seen as it
actually is.
4. Iesu speak of The Great Spirit, The Creator, who is not seen as a man
sees his friend, face to face, yet is seen in all things, when faith
opens the eyes to see properly. Yet the mortal will rather prefer one
seen face to face; as a man sees his friend; and so he worships not the
true Father, but a substitute for the true Father. So his faith is not
faith at all. He worships iesu, not knowing what he does. He hath
nothing more than faith in idol-worship.
5. Iesu tells man to worship the Father only; but man understands not the
greatness of the All-Person; cannot take him in, for The Great Spirit
escapes his limited definitions. So the mortal defines a thing within
his own limits, and proclaims- "I have faith in God". The pretense
holds no matter with us!
6. Iesu speaks of faith in THE GREAT I AM. They establish Jehovih in
the understanding of some mortals. That is their labor. Later come
false angels who use suitable portions of the iesu doctrine and slant it
so mortals have faith in them. So iesu doctrine, as it reads in your
sacred scriptures, is a combination of the true and the false.
7. Neither can the mortal know which is which till he finds the real
Father for himself; who opens his eyes to see things as they really
9
7/29/2019 The Gospel of Iesu - Don Pickard
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-gospel-of-iesu-don-pickard 10/32
are. Then the mortal has faith in the true Father and nothing can shake
his faith.
8. So faith grows. It becomes hope vindicated. It is no more just
hope, but solid facts, axioms established and vast eons of time. Thesechange not because the wind carries some sudden new philosophy that
lasts a couple of thousand years.
9. To have faith in Jehovih is to become as a man high on a mountain who
looks both down and up., His perspective of things is more balanced.
The scenes below tell him of mortals immersed in busyness, rarely
looking up. The scenes above spell out the vastness of The Eternal;for wherever he looks there is never a boundary to be seen. So he
returns to the valley below, but is never as one solely concerned with
the affairs of mortals. His perspective of life is a true one, and he
goes his way in life, with the heart set on a good few of his fellow
mortals ever discern.
10. The Faithist in The Great Spirit is as a pilgrim in corpor. He willpass through it, and will bid it farewell without reluctance or
lingering regrets; because nothing belonging to the order of the
permanent was to be found in it. The Gods and Goddesses of Jehovih will
seem to smile on him, as if giving encouragement. He will become his
own savior.
11. Two opposing kingdoms will struggle within him for supremacy.
Unless he has faith in Jehovih, his own kingdom of heaven will be drawn
down by corpor and will become a shambles. Behold, O mortal! The
Kingdom of heaven is within, and also is the kingdom of the tetracts,
whose captain is the Satan.
12. Then cometh the prince of the worldly spirit, laying just claims to
those ruled by his spirit. In vain shalt thou call upon thy sacred names
for salvation. To that condition which is in affinity with thyself must
10
7/29/2019 The Gospel of Iesu - Don Pickard
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-gospel-of-iesu-don-pickard 11/32
thou go, because thou art ruled by the spirit that ever is in opposition
to Jehovih.
13. Iesu declared true faith in all ages, which was in the pacifist
disposition; that fought not, killed no living creatures, and lived inmortal life ever knowing the eye of Jehovih read the deep secrets of the
heart at all times. It was a true faith because no pretence was in it.
14. What greater pretence can any man have than to believe he will be
changed in the twinkling of an eye? No realistic faith could possibly
lead to such conclusion; therefore that faith becomes an unreal faith,
and encourages deceit.
15. Shall a sword be complimentary to a cross? To believe this is to
believe heaven governed by the same laws that govern mortals, and it is
not so. The true cross in the heart of the Eternal is not as the cross
in thy scriptures.
16. Iesu would not speak false. Therefore that which is false in thyscriptures cannot be of iesu; for whoso takes to heart true iesu
doctrine will always find the true Father, and have faith in Him.
17. To find The Father. To reveal The Father. This is all, and for His
Glory alone.
18. Neither mortal nor angel can truly be happy in life, or find a
worthwhile meaning to their own life, until they find the Father.
19. A life of separateness from The Father must always take the soul
away from the Father. Faith in The Father is the end of such a road in
life.
20. The Father has implanted the star of true faith in everyone. None
need walk in darkness. The Father will always speak in the still,
11
7/29/2019 The Gospel of Iesu - Don Pickard
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-gospel-of-iesu-don-pickard 12/32
gentle voice, to the one seeking Light, and lead the seeker for truth
in His own ways.
21. The Father is very close to everyone; and is easiest of all persons
to know.
22. Extreme liberty gives The Father to each person. They have liberty
even to reject The Father if they so choose; and The Father will be just
as loving a Father in spite of rejection.
23. So dearly hath The Father loved mortals that He has been with them,
right from the beginning; and never once has He left them devoid of Light.
24. All iesu lives revealed The Father. It was the purpose intended.
Nor sought iesu a glory bestowed on them by mortals or anyone.
Inconceivable would be the idea of establishing a religion based on
themselves as the foundation stone.
25. Iesu put it plainly, saying:- I am mortal. Worship not me. Worship
only Jehovih, The Great Spirit.
26. This was the foundation stone of their doctrine. In this did they
all speak with one accord, though thousands of years separated them in
time and place.
27. Those amongst mortals who follow in their spirit today say the same
things. They reiterate the ancient faith, and speak not a new doctrine.
28. Whatever new doctrine comes to mortals, comes not of Jehovih nor
those who are one with Him. The ancient doctrines contained all that
was sufficient, and required nothing added to them.
29. These revelations are contained in Oahspe and are all-comprehensive,
12
7/29/2019 The Gospel of Iesu - Don Pickard
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-gospel-of-iesu-don-pickard 13/32
yet the revelation of truth is always unfolding.
30. There is one true faith., All others are deviations or perversions
of doctrines taught by iesu from Zarathustra to Joshu, and are a blend
of truth and error very cunningly mixed.
31. Iesu say:- I am mortal, as you. Worship not me. Worship Jehovih,
The Great Spirit. Neither let others come and lead you into idolatry,
lest you go down into darkness for a long time.
Chapter 6
1. I am the true vine. It is My Life that flows throughout the
universe, sustaining all.
2. Unto Gods and Goddesses, Lords and Lordesses, angels and mortals
alike, I am the true vine.
3. This life I give to all, ever sustaining, ever renewing, ever changing the forms that hold the life.
4. Life of the One Life of All is the life of each person; neither is
there any life separate and apart from the One Life of All.
5. This symbol intersects the sacred sign of My Name; and as it is the
center of the true cross, so shall it be the central truth in thy life.
6. The true vine is, the Tree of Life; and thou art as a single blossom
on that tree. Fear not the blossom shall fall to the ground and die,
for it shall never become apart from Me, who am its source of Life.
7. The blossom gives way to the development of the ripening fruit. In
the same way thy corporeal body gives way to thy spirit-body. The end
in mind in both cases is the same.
13
7/29/2019 The Gospel of Iesu - Don Pickard
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-gospel-of-iesu-don-pickard 14/32
8. Though the Life dwell in the form, the form itself is not the Life.
The Life is greater than the form. Greater than death is My Power of
Life; for I create death to serve the Life.
9. Before creation, The Life was. The Life was, before anything. The
Life shall always be. The Tree of Life is from everlasting unto
everlasting.
10. Though the blossom seem to fall to the ground and perish, as a
mortal sees it, yet is the Life active even in the fallen blossom; for
death in this still serves the Life to be manifested in the future.
11. Thy corporeal body falleth as the blossom; yet the Life within thy
spirit suffers no loss on account of this.
12. The life of spirit in Es is more full than the manifestation of life
in corpor. By the seeming death of the blossom doth the Life become
renewed with great vigor.
13. The fruit will come to development only in Es. In corpor, at best,
it will be show the promise of things to come.
14. The true vine nourishes all. It gives of itself forever.
Chapter 7
1. The love of The Great Spirit broods over all creations. It is like
the tender care and watchfulness of a loving mother over her children.
The spirit of the mother, in The Father, enables the heart to respond
with love.
2. The Father and Mother are One Person. The head and the heart blended
14
7/29/2019 The Gospel of Iesu - Don Pickard
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-gospel-of-iesu-don-pickard 15/32
together become male and female in one person. Whoso sees this in
mortality is greatly blessed; for they will have seen the Divine image
shining forth.
3. Whoso hath seen iesu, hath the Father and Mother seen. Whoso hasthe spirit of iesu, blends head and heart together. Whoso does this,
becomes one with The Father.
4. The Divine image is in two separate parts in corpor. They become one
in Es, both in one person; and this is true love. Nor can any know true
love properly until the two become one, and the one become one with the
Great Spirit.
5. As a lighted candle is to the brilliant light of the sun, so are the
ideas of love in corpor to the ideas of love in Es. One is pale and
insignificant, the other resplendent in glory.
6. Same holds true of ideas as to love enshrined in sacred writings.
They are not worthy to bear comparison with the glory resplendent.
7. If love roots not in the family.
Chapter 8
1. One man says:- I am Kristian, I worship Kriste. Others declare
different names, believing they are the true worshippers and the others
in error.
2. I say unto you that they are all in error. Each has inherited a
fragment of iesu doctrine, which hath been highly colored, and stands
unrecognizable as pure doctrine.
3. That they stand in opposition to each other declares the spirit of
oneness in the higher worlds is not in them. Iesu spoke of harmony and
15
7/29/2019 The Gospel of Iesu - Don Pickard
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-gospel-of-iesu-don-pickard 16/32
that which unites diversity in unity. This is the real spirit of iesu.
4. If there cannot be unity amidst great diversity in things spiritual,
how can those without faith ever find a faith worth having? What
mockery of the Spirit is this, that makes religion a stumbling block, somaking it harder to find faith?
5. There are but two classifications of all mortals; those having faith
in the Father, and those without faith in the Father.
6. Does not the fact that mortals have the power to destroy their world
highlight the fact that they have but that one world in which to live,and so ought to live in harmony?
7. So the power of possible evil unconsciously impresses this truth on
their minds, as perhaps no amount of sermons could ever do. Harmony
stands before men of reason, and at the same time, the alternative that
is terrible to contemplate.
8. In no period before Kosmon have the opposites stood so clearly as
they do now. In no other way can it be brought home to mortals that
only one way of life will work, which is unity and harmony amongst the
nations of a whole world.
9. There is but one universal faith, and if you are not part of it,
nothing can prevent the slide into darkness, chaos and anarchy. Not in
the power of politicians does salvation lie, but in the power inherent
in the universal faith to make mortals change course.
10. Therefore iesu stressed the fact that all men and women are brothers
and sisters unto one another; and all are children of The Great Spirit.
Until this is embraced without reservation, the path to darkness widens
all the time.
16
7/29/2019 The Gospel of Iesu - Don Pickard
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-gospel-of-iesu-don-pickard 17/32
11. Therefore shall you choose the destiny you desire, and the only
proposition is which faith shall you embrace - that which is eternal,
or the beliefs that hide the Father; in which the unbeliever remains
in unbelief?
Chapter 9
1. The Father, The Great Spirit E-O-IH, is the eternal True Shepherd.
Iesu, being one with the Father, accurately reflects the heart of the
Father, and in themselves become as assistants to the Shepherd
beautiful.
2. As with iesu and their labor with mortals, so it is with the Gods and
Goddesses of Jehovih and their holy angels, in their own labor, with
angels abiding in the first resurrection. It is part of one endless
labor, continuous in the history of all evolving star-worlds.
3. Soon as some flocks are protected, others have wandered, and danger awaits them. This is happening all the time. The True Shepherd must be
eternally vigilant. There is always danger somewhere.
4. The True Shepherd labors in all endless time, saving to the uttermost
all who get lost or are drawn down into darkness. The rest-periods in
between labor are few and far between, sometimes centuries apart.
5. Not a little scheme of salvation occupies the minds of many in Es;
but a vast scheme, involving countless worlds like yours, as each
develops in its history until it arrives in the arc of Kosmon, in the
etherean heavens.
6. And when the knowledge of The True Shepherd rests in the hearts of
the many, then is a short respite from the labor of thousands of years.
17
7/29/2019 The Gospel of Iesu - Don Pickard
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-gospel-of-iesu-don-pickard 18/32
7. Therefore iesu reflect on a small scale, things that are labor in
heaven on a vast scale. It is all one labor; for as iesu are one with
The Father, so are thousands of millions high-raised angels also one
with The Father.
8. The Shepherd, the true and beautiful shepherd, seeks that which was
lost in the vastness of endless creations and saves them all.
Therefore, whosoever is one with The Father, will do such work in Es in
order to promote the greatest happiness in life for the maximum number
of persons.
9. This is the pure motive for all labor in heaven, and is its own
reward; for we shall have done that which was well pleasing in His
sight.
10. Jehovih speaks to each soul at some time, saying:- "My son! My
daughter! Come, My beloved, labor with Me. Be thou helpmate and
companion with Me forever."
11. Such is the love of The Creator, who invites us to co-operate in
such labor. By our co-operation, in vast units of thousands of millions
acting as one, are many star-worlds lifted up from darkness into light.
Chapter 10
1. I am The One Great Light of the universe. thy light is a borrowed
light, a reflected light that comes of Me.
2. The light in iesu is My reflected Light. I have toned it down,
adjusted it, lest mortals be overwhelmed by its brilliance. Therefore
iesu reflect the highest degree of My Light mortals can behold.
3. Others in past stole of My Light in order to glorify themselves.
18
7/29/2019 The Gospel of Iesu - Don Pickard
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-gospel-of-iesu-don-pickard 19/32
Because of this, the light of iesu in thy scriptures comes to thee as a
light dimmer than it originally was.
4, A borrowed light, a stolen light, what does it matter? All that
matters now is that mortals recognize the true source of Light, which isof Me, Thy Creator, and not another.
5. Whether light cometh of iesu doctrines, or of My direct inspiration,
matters not. Sufficient is it that it cast a light upon the soul, and
then in the understanding of mortals, as to Me, The Great Spirit.
6. Whoso asketh of Me for light, unto him or her will I give. My Lightis a redemptive light; for it casts its rays on the soul and magnifies
all contrasts so they are lit up for all to see.
7. My light formeth first as a center point of light in the soul, then
extends outwards in all directions. Whosoever is guided by My light
sees all things as they really are, and is not confused.
8. Nor need Mine contend with any for opinions sake. My Light giveth
them confidence in their own judgment. They need no second opinion as
confirmation.
9. Mine approach Me directly. They do not go through a second person.
For this reason Mine as known as direct worshipers. They know a line of
light connects them with Me forever, which cannot be broken.
10. I am the Light that is with each corporeal world, from its infancy
to its old age, when it is incapable of sustaining life anymore.
11. I force none to accept My light. As they are prepared to receive
and withstand My light, so do I lead each one on in life.
12. I make them flames of light, for My Light shall shine most

gloriously in them, who are created My highest lights in creation.
13. Their light shall be seen in Es, a thousand times brighter than the
light of thy corporeal sun.
14. All who desire may receive of My Light. To all who ask of Me, do I
give.
Chapter 11
1. Suffer each person to believe whatsoever they choose to believe.
Reveal thou Me, O My beloved, but with discretion; for liberty unto allis the first law of heaven, and shall be binding upon all.
2. Suffer all things with patience. If a mortal or angel butt the head
against a wall, it but proveth folly. It doth not disprove Me. That
which testifies to Me hath all the time in the world in which to
register on their understanding.
3. Behold! I give to mortals and angels alike, extremes in liberty.
But at the same time I make each accountable to Me. Even those who
oppose Me still have this liberty to oppose.
4. To interfere not with the rights of others; it hath been the labor of
thousands of years to convince mortals and angels to concern themselves
with their own concerns.
5. Nor shall this right of liberty be infringed. Even if for a time
darkness seems to triumph over light, yet shall liberty be not violated.
6. Be most circumspect, O My beloved, in all revelations of Me, to give
mortals no excuse to say that My religion was forced on them against
their will. Not even truth shall force itself upon another.

7. Put My revelations before others with discretion, with moderation in
persuasiveness. Let wisdom come through suggestion, rather than seem to
vindicate itself behind the word "authority".
8. Suffer the fool to be foolish; the wise to be wise. The discrepancy
between these extremes will narrow as the experiences in the school of
life come to pass in time.
9. Let whoso that hath faith in Me say so in their own words, and in the
strength of their own convictions. Yet give the same liberty to whoso
denies a Creator; that liberty shall be equal and alike to each.
10. Do unto others as thou would'st have thy Creator do unto thee. In
obedience to this will all the spiritual laws in creation be on thy
side.
11. Give unto all liberty to think their own thoughts, utter their honest
opinions, do within reason and respect for the rights of others, whatever they choose to do. For upon such a base are My heavenly kingdoms
founded.
12. Whoso will desire to labor in the building of such a Kingdom shall
be inspired by these guidelines in the proper way. Otherwise all plans
set in hand will come to nothing.
13. Nor shalt thou in the name of liberty deprive the individual of his
or her rights; for nothing thou canst say to justify such a course, can
ever justify itself in My sight.
14. Herein are the laws of freedom; the heritage and birthright of
everyone who enters life.
Chapter 12

1. The imperatives of The Eternal are not burdensome; they delight the
spirit. They are written on the heart in a way each can comprehend.
Thou hast all-freedom even in the interpreting of these; and more is
motive and intention of mortals esteemed than the degree of attainmentso far.
2. Highest and foremost of all imperatives is to love the Creator to thy
greatest capacity to reciprocate His Love. Next to this, to live the
highest light thou knowest each day, trusting He will guide thee to yet
higher light. Upon these two imperatives hang all the law and the
doctrines of the prophets.
3. In obedience to these is man's highest delight in life; neither is
heaven strict in judgment as to man's attainment. That man has tried to
do his best, is sufficient; for he can do no more than this, nor is
anything beyond this expected of him.
4. Thus is the spirit at the heart of iesu doctrine summarized in thefewest of words, so that none may say it is ambiguous, or open to
contention as to the meaning of words.
5. It may be put in even fewer words:- Love Jehovih utterly and
completely, and do what thou wilt. Nor is this open license to do what
the personal self desires, for in loving Jehovih, the personal self will
be of no consideration. Chiefest joy in life will be to do whatsoever
things are pleasing unto The Father. Nor wilt thou err in this, for
spirit will be thy teacher and faithful guide.
6. Jehovih gave man the gift of commonsense. Apply it and thou wilt not
err in anything as to sound doctrine. That which mortals cal
commonsense is Jehovih's dots and commas.
7. Form thy base on a sound foundation, and a true Kingdom of heaven may
22
7/29/2019 The Gospel of Iesu - Don Pickard
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-gospel-of-iesu-don-pickard 23/32
be built, stone by stone. The Great Architect will be principal
adviser, yet thou wilt think it all done by thyself.
8. Iesu doctrine is never open to contention as to the meaning of words.
it is said so all may understand. Only the false will use it andwrangle about the dots and commas.
9. Be guided by the impulses of the heart even if the head whispers
'caution'. For it is these impulses ever coursing through the universe
that tell Gods and angels what is best to do.
10. Judge thou all doctrine; then see if thou canst devise a better. Byfollowing this process is the highest light ever determined.
Chapter 13
1. Ever forward, O mortal. Ever onward. No going back. Ever forward.
Beyond the gate of death, advancing ever forward. For thy world and
its heavens is impelled by a Divine hand to do the same. Neither hathit will or desire separate from this. So the whole of creation ever
moveth forward, forward, onward forever, without end!
2. Neither cometh the spirit of man back into the womb. Man born from
the womb comes into life as Spirit in a body of corpor, and hath no need
to do this twice, let alone a hundred times.
3. Iesu warn mortals against doctrines not in harmony with the doctrines
of The Great Spirit. Iesu stress their mortality, as if to say, regard
me not as other than man, as any man.
4. Beloved, look upon the scenes of thy world with eyes to see. Thou
wilt only see it through such eyes once in all eternity. Nor wilt thou
ever see it through the eyes of another.
23
7/29/2019 The Gospel of Iesu - Don Pickard
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-gospel-of-iesu-don-pickard 24/32
5. Creation moveth forward constantly. It goeth not back. Neither doth
the spirit of man go back. To believe otherwise is to imply the Creator
is perchance lacking in inventive skills, which cannot possibly be.
6. By the very tenets of its philosophy doth reincarnation judge itself,
and the general movement of thy world and its heavens in the etherean
Arcs, contradicts it flatly. In logic it is illogical, because the
inventive skills of the Creator are infinite; and nothing is repeated or
duplicated exactly the same in all creation. Why should man enter the
womb again? It is both unnecessary and irrelevant.
7. Therefore rejoice with us in the ever new inventions of Jehovih, Who
creates for us heaven upon heaven, full of surprise; whose delight is to
witness His children's surprise and joy.
8. Beautiful hast Thou created corpor, O Jehovih! Yet more beautiful
are the spheres beyond. O Jehovih! Such beauty, that ever unfolds
before my spirit-senses, full of magnificence and unsurpassable glory.Who but Thee, O Father, could'st carry thy children onward and forward
forever, in all the vastness of eternity?
9. Therefore heed not the little schemes of salvation that sprout up like
mushrooms, only to disappear in a brief hour, as if they had never been.
10. R3member, O mortal, unto the One whose creations span thousands of
millions of years, these philosophies mean nothing. Nor does heaven
rise in anger to protest at the spread of untruths. For in the course
of time, the merit in all doctrines proveth itself, and reality only
need wait.
Almost with indifference to the strange notions mortals cherish, does
creation in a family of planets move remorselessly onwards, in its vast
circuit of millions of years duration.

Chapter 14
1. Sin and saviors go hand in hand together. Yet angels sin as well as
mortals. So how can the doctrine of redemption through saviors helpangels? Indeed the sins of angels are far more terrible than the evils
in mortal life.
2. Behind all doctrines of salvation by saviors lie the schemes of
cunning angels to do in heaven that which dictators do on earth. Thus
the mortal claiming the name he believes will save him, finds out too
late he has been deceived, and is more a prisoner in bondage than ever before.
3. The promised salvation turned out to be increased bondage, as the
angels false to Jehovih, planned the extensions of their heavenly
empires; and then took to war against other similar empires.
4. The believer was bound to them because he bound himself to thatparticular name in the earth-life.
5. He therefore called for iesu, but Kriste is not iesu, and this he
does not know. He calls for Jesus, or any other honored name, little
guessing there was a true Brahma and a false Brahma, a true Buddha and a
false one. Nor was Mohammed in any better situation.
6. So confusion comes about because mortals think Jesus saves, or
rather, Joshu of Palestine saves. They know not the iesu never claimed
to be saviors in themselves; at best were prophets, iesu at birth, who
showed the way, through faith in The Creator alone.
7. And the only way leading to Life is in Jehovih, the Creator. There
is no other way upwards. The other ways end up in hells and knots, when
such kingdoms finally crash in ruins.
25
7/29/2019 The Gospel of Iesu - Don Pickard
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-gospel-of-iesu-don-pickard 26/32
8. Tragic to behold such a kingdom crash in ruins. Sometimes the
deceived angels cast their leaders into vast hells, other times they
seem to want to prove their loyalty even more.
9. In the end, the eyes of the blind are opened. The way to life is
pointed out to them, and they then begin the long labor of equalization
of the evils of the past, then following the right path to their own
highest light.
10. Whether you believe the true doctrines of the iesu, or the false
doctrines of heavenly usurpers, one fact cannot be in dispute. Either way is no easy path to the higher worlds.
11. Therefore be thou wise, O mortal. Because thine own savior in the
earth-life and thou wilt avoid much heartache in heaven. Let not thy
heaven be one of promises never realized.
Chapter 15
1. O Iesu, Joshu, son of Jehovih, still rise the voices from earth
speaking that which is grief to thy spirit. Thy have permitted idol
worship to rest in the heart; and it cannot easily be plucked out. Will
they ever love the idol more than they love Jehovih?
2. Thou art idolized against thy will. Truly they know not whom they
worship. Thou canst not away with it, O son of Jehovih. It becomes a
cross to bear until the full glory of Kosmon comes. Suffer thou this, O
son of The Great Spirit. Soon shall it all be of the past that hath
gone forever.
3. Beloved, The Father will pluck their idols from them if they will not
give them up. The heavenly times and seasons cannot wait the
convenience of mortals. Thou canst not say to Jehovih:- I am not yet
26
7/29/2019 The Gospel of Iesu - Don Pickard
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-gospel-of-iesu-don-pickard 27/32
ready to cast out my idol. Pray give me more time to decide.
4. The times approach when mortals shall sense the changes happening in
the unseen worlds, and know that such events shall affect them. The
heavenly proceedings wait upon no man; they come at their own appointedtimes.
5. In the past men worshipped many gods, and were confused. Jehovih
reduced their numbers. Came in time less abundance of names and finally
three-in-one. Even these are cast out, so that no more shall confusion
remain upon the earth. Only Jehovih, The Creator, shall be worshipped.
6. This which is to come, all the iesu declared, in that only The
creator was to be worshipped. We inquire:- why prefer mortals an idol
to Jehovih, the loveliest of all loves? In what way hath Jehovih failed
them? And when we have searched for all causes, we can but say:- O
Father of All-Light, forgive them; they know not whom they worship!
7. O mortal, perceive the leniency of heaven; mortals are more sinnedagainst, than guilty of sinning, in this context. Therefore are they to
be pitied, as most sins arising out of ignorance are so regarded in Es.
8. This leniency does not apply, however, to angels who were the cause
of mortals worshipping false gods. Justice is severe upon them; and
these two contrasting views should be borne in mind by all mortals;
firstly, pity unto mortals who have been led astray, and severity unto
angels who so led them; for these had no excuse at all, for what they
did, they did in full knowledge of the consequences.
9. Worse than all sins of the flesh, as mortal failings are called, are
sins of the spirit. Nor will this be different in any cycle of time,
and such a point comes across frequently in the gospels familiar to
you.

Chapter 16
1. Whoso would commune with Es must withdraw from the preoccupations and
interests of corpor and find the silence within them. We observethat most mortals are afraid to be alone with their own thoughts; as if
the condition was somehow strange and frightening.
2. We will not contend with the thoughts that are uppermost in your
mind. Yet thoughts, did mortals know it, form the gateway for communion
with the world of Spirit.
3. Thoughts of mortals can be disguised from others. The same thoughts
are plain to read in Es, and cannot be hidden. The thoughts and
emotions declare themselves in the aura of a person, and so are read by
any who will.
4. Thus we draw nigh to you, bringing the gifts of Spirit as our
blessing. The only condition of receiving is the desire to want toreceive and the faith that reality in communion is literally as we
describe.
5. Thus often peace is not found, because the mortal does not put
himself in the right condition to receive. You cannot receive the gifts
of Spirit against the babble of many voices all speaking at once. For
spirit-gifts come more of passive expectation that things done, in the
sense of labor one diligently sets the mind to performing.
6. O loss of peace, why should it be, when all around are messengers
bringing peace? O ceaseless babble of many voices, when will these
cease, that mortals may hear the still small voice within themselves? O
man of many thoughts and words, let them fly away for a time; and give
way to the thoughts of another world.
28
7/29/2019 The Gospel of Iesu - Don Pickard
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-gospel-of-iesu-don-pickard 29/32
7. The peace of Jehovih waits for every man to receive. It cannot force
itself upon the unprepared or unbelieving. It waits, within the silence
of a mortal's world of inner thoughts, as a guest expecting an
invitation to enter.
8. Is it not true? "our hearts are not at peace, until we find our
peace in Thee."
9. Beloved, in the quiet of morn, or the evening, the unseen messengers
of peace await thy summons.
10. By thought to thought, of Spirit to spirit, is the communion of
peace bestowed.
11. None can describe in words what it is. Yet unto many, even in
corpor, it is amongst the brightest jewels Spirit doth offer.
12. Whoso hath this peace, is richer than any who have greatpossessions.
Chapter 17
1. What is in the heart must come out. How can a mortal determine the
heart's condition? How transmute impure thoughts to thoughts that are
pure? Purity lies in such more than the symbols of an outer
manifestation.
2. How shall the impatient man become one with infinite patience? How
shall the warrior-type become meek and gentle? Ho shall the lion and
the lamb within the heart lie side by side quite happily?
3. Iesu nature is sustained on the diet of the highest and purest foods;
29
7/29/2019 The Gospel of Iesu - Don Pickard
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-gospel-of-iesu-don-pickard 30/32
because the blood-stream carries the invisible essence of soul, by which
the disposition of the heart is formed.
4. The purity within, the best of mortals would attain, comes first by
attention to the type of foods that pass into the system. All thereligious disciplines in the world are of little purpose if separated
from this.
5. Even the rite of bathing becomes no more than the outer symbol of an
invisible sacrament. It is never substitute for the real thing. To
retain pure thoughts for a single hour, who can do this?
6. Therefore take care as to the kind of foods that nourish the body.
These determine the nature of the heart's disposition, and thus the
thoughts that pass into the mind.
7. Think not these things unimportant. The Kingdom of heaven opens its
doors gladly to the non-resistant. The doors are closed against the
warrior who would storm a kingdom by force.
8. Thus the disposition of the heart, the thoughts in the mind, these
are more governed by diet than all the religious disciplines of
self-mortification ever practiced.
9. In certain teachings it is stated that nothing can enter a man and
define him. The truth is, what enters his mouth plays a large part in
determining what the man is; and it is a part far greater than such a
teaching would have you believe.
10. Take great thought as to what you shall eat and drink, for the soul
essence is carried by the blood-stream and shapes the person
accordingly. Purity is largely a matter of control over the kinds of
nourishment that one partakes of.
30
7/29/2019 The Gospel of Iesu - Don Pickard
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-gospel-of-iesu-don-pickard 31/32
11. Nor will all the spiritual disciplines aimed at making the heart
pure, ever come to pass, without considering this. Thou wilt not still
the passions. They will rise with renewed power and destroy thy
spiritual labor.
12. Beloved, the condition of the heart declares the condition of the Es
man, the real man; and it lies within thine own province to determine it
to great extent.
Chapter 18
1. I am the spirit of the ancient faith, that is resurrected in every
generation; ever renewed by the power of life within itself. I live in
the young; in whom I plant new ideas of love, justice, and the
brotherhood of man.
2. I am the hope eternal that dwells in the spirit of man. I am the
spirit in the human spirit none can harm. Driven from home,. persecutedby darkness, I rise in every age, as a guide and beacon to the human
race.
3. I am the wind that cometh and goeth, asking permission of none to do
that which I please. I am the living spirit that answers to none. I am
The One beyond all laws.
4. Mine alone is the power and the glory. Mine alone, is the life of
all. None created I equal to Myself in power. I am Highest of all.
5. The Spirit is free; cannot be bound. Confine thou My Spirit and it
breaks loose with effortless ease; nor can My Spirit in the living ever
be restrained for long.
6. I, The Great Spirit, create each to be free. Thou shalt bow before
31
7/29/2019 The Gospel of Iesu - Don Pickard
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-gospel-of-iesu-don-pickard 32/32
none, nor be in bondage to them. If it be thy desire, thou shalt be
free even of Me, Thy Creator. I will have none take from thee my gift
of liberty.
7. I am the fete against which is no appeal. That which I decree, isforever. All My creations shall be eternally free.
8. I am the promise that lives on in the heart, of the fulfillment of
ideas in the human mind. I am the realization of all that is holy and
noble in the best of mankind.
9. I am The Spirit that ever was. Before creation, The Spirit was!Before the thoughts were formed in the mind, I, The Great Spirit, AM!
10. Even the thoughts in thy mind thou formest of Me, are one with the
works of My hands. Even the faith that forms in thy mind, is one with
the works of My hands.
11. Therefore rejoice, O children of men, in thy right to be free; andfrom henceforth teach thou everyone that Thy Creator is their guarantee
of liberty.
12. The truth of My words, when embraced by the heart, shall soon or
late set all men free. None shall impose or dictate to thee.
Nevertheless, all shall answer unto Me for that which they do within the
context of everlasting liberty.
