Ruben: It has been a while, but there is a purpose for everything. I miss it for myself, but mostly for the others; that is why it is called The Journey. To help us with our heart, our mind and our spirit. So, I was summoned by the gentle touch of the angel and his voice, “You’re summoned.” I was filled with excitement because it had been a while. I miss going to Heaven and I miss speaking with the ones that come forth to share with me. So we take off and I’m walking side by side with the angel. He is like a soldier, focused on his assignment. Then we’re there; the aroma, that begins gently, grows stronger and announces we’ve arrived. It’s a clean, refreshing aroma, with a sweetness that strengthens you as you breathe it in. The angel says, “You know the routine, here’s your bench and someone will be with you.”
I sat a while, then stood on the bench to see better, to watch the people smiling and greeting one another. Even the children, as they laugh and play, wave at me and I can wave back. Not long and I see someone coming on the path and try to figure out who it is. It’s a man, but I don’t know—when they speak I can acknowledge their voice, but no, I don’t know this person. He’s in front of me now and says, “I know you don't know me. I know you are trying to guess, but it's better not to try to guess. I have heard a lot of things about you, and it is an honor and a privilege for me to get with you and share with you.
“Like everybody else, I am in Heaven with great men and great women. And it is wonderful what I hear about their experience with you. But you have to understand as well that now that we are being involved, that we are also seeing and hearing what everybody else is speaking and what they are trying to teach, and what is going on in the world right now. It has been like that off and on: light - dark, dark - light. And that is what we have been trying to preach and share with all of you.
"Have a seat and let me look at you.” He looked at me then said, “It is true what they speak. You just have to be patient because it is your Journey that you will realize more and more as you go forth. A Journey that we all go through for us to grasp in life. We represent the body of Christ. We must continue to fight the fight. It is our Journey. It is a wonderful Journey. You must not take it lightly, or your friends, even my friends. Let's keep it real, and let's keep it more to feed our heart, soul and spirit. This is good that this is happening and that we are able to share our stories where it will speak to you and you can share it with your friends. They need it. They need it. It is an honor, and I see what they are talking about. My brothers and sisters here are sharing this great news.
It is great news! Who are we to say how God operates? We are to believe with our heart, soul and spirit. And never doubt yourself. Because when you doubt you lose it. But you must stay focused on the Word of God. That is what will carry you. It’s good to meet you. Let me shake your hand. I know who you are; you’re Ruben Domingo. I’m Paul Jackson.*
"It's very difficult to share great detail in a short time. There is so much that I have written, yet I still have to share with you; but little by little you will see, and this is a walk—a Journey that you must take. I have so much to share with you. Maybe you might recognize me if I had my beard, but I don't. In Heaven we don't need it. It is a blessing to meet you. I’m glad you’re my brother.
"I want your brothers and sisters to be as one. You must be as one! If one falls, the other must pick him up. No one is better than the other. It doesn't work that way. That is how the enemy will try to sneak in, like cancer, and destroy everything. So be strong. The enemy is for real, and he will try to manipulate anything that you are trying to focus for the Kingdom of God.
"Now, I want to share with you some chapters, but there are two parts in this that I want to share with you. I have heard about your friends, how they can put things together; that's pretty neat. So, there are two parts of this that I want to share with you:
Matthew 5
Deuteronomy 20
2 Corinthians 4
Acts 20
Colossians 1
1 Peter 1
Romans 11
"One way or another I have spoken on these chapters. It is a tremendous word that has helped me in my Journey. Now for part two, I would like for you to read:
2 Timothy 3
2 Timothy 4
Acts 21
Philippians 4
"I believe what I have read. I believe because I have practiced it. You must practice what you preach. As you walk this Journey, and as you commit yourself with one another, let your heart, your mind and soul come into one accord. But I myself will speak into your life tremendously, because I want the same gift that I had—for you all to flow in it. Because I can tell you this much: that some of you will all work in different gifts. One of my wonderful gifts is translating dreams, and I want people to experience that because it is very important. We get visions and dreams. We must help our brothers and sisters because we don't want them to be confused. We want them to understand, and to help them in their walk.
"It is an honor to see finally who you are, and I know that you will meet some other friends who are here with me. It is a blessing. Do not take it lightly; guard it—guard yourself. Tell your friends to guard themselves. Listen to the Word of God. Listen to the Word of God. I will see you again, my brother. Forget the handshake, let me embrace you, and you take this love from above to share with your friends, with my brothers and sisters.
"It is a Journey that they have been waiting for. Let it come to pass. And as far as I know, it is not going to end anytime soon. We just have to press on. Receive. Believe. Believe is one of the crucial words. Thank you, brother for being involved. I will see you again."
Ruben: Their presence is so anointed; just to be able to speak to these guys is such an honor. Read the chapters. I have been tested as well. Sometimes we have to wait on God—it is His timing, not ours. Jesus told the Father: "what ever Your will is, not mine, Lord."
*On earth he was known as John Paul Jackson. In Heaven he is called Paul Jackson.
