      Appendix: FAQ Outline

      0. Introductory comments

      Clare: My name's Clare Heibloem. I've been a Catholic Christian all my life. I've always loved my faith; I've always loved the people that I've been to church with. I think my parents were pretty good examples to me. My friends were a support to me and as I got older I felt a deeper, deeper draw towards God. I wanted to really experience what it was like to be a Christian, to feel what it's like to be a Christian, and then here I am at over 55 years of age and I'm discovering the Divine Love and I'm not finding it terribly different from what I believed all along. And I really do feel that it is a step deeper, quite a step deeper, and I would like to find ways in which I don't leave my faith behind or my church aside because I love them so much, but I would like to find ways that I could actually bring both together and to make my faith and my quest towards God more real, more definite.

      Good call. Yeah. Welcome, Clare.

      Clare: Thank you so much. (Laughter)

      So we've got a whole series of questions about Christian religion basically or things relating to Christian religion.

      Clare: That's right. It's not a fundamentalist approach. It's a really a soulful approach and I've been taught well so I hope that these will get to really, really deeper issues.

      Yeah good, that sounds great.

      1. Please tell us of the early followers of Jesus who followed The Way

      Clare: Could you please tell us about the early followers of Jesus who followed The Way?

      Yes, well they called themselves The Way because I called the thing that I was discussing with them The Way to God, so that's why that terminology was eventually used to define the people who followed the teachings that I taught. Clare, you want to know about their personalities and natures or would you like to know about their general condition, or what kind of questions?

      Clare: I would love to hear about how their lives were transformed.

      Right.

      Clare: Their whole being was transformed with a great deal of desire and ...

      Well you may be disappointed to hear the answer to that question. (Laughter) The reality is that a lot of the transformations that occurred with the people we knew in the first century at the time did not really occur strongly until after I died. The main reason for that was, while they were listening to me and were fascinated about the Truths they were hearing, and there was quite a lot of soul-based desire driven by these Truths in terms of causing people to be quite fascinated, many of them didn't practice what they learned at all until after I passed. The main reason was that there wasn't a large amount of faith in them about what I was teaching. So while they could see that my example was quite clear they could see that obviously something had transformed me and they could see that I acted differently to every other person they'd ever met, they themselves had not personally experienced many of the things that I was teaching and so they weren't necessarily convinced that they could do it. They felt strongly that obviously something had happened to me, and some of them had a feeling that it had happened to me because of some kind of unique thing inside of me rather than understanding that it was as a result of the things that I was teaching them.

      So up until my death there was a number, or you could say a series, of things that occurred - up until the point of my death. Around twelve to thirteen years before my death, so I was in my early twenties at this point, there were some events that happened in my life that caused me to leave my family and to live alone for a period of time. Eventually I went and lived in Capernaum which was on the edge of the Sea of Galilee, on the west side of the Sea of Galilee. In that little town, I had a little one-bedroom room if you like, and I began to share Divine Truth with others even though I was not yet at-one with God.

      So, and this is not something that is mentioned in the Bible, I began to share the Divine Truth and as a result of sharing it, very similar things happened to what are happening currently in my life, and that is, there would be people attracted to the Divine Truth, attracted to what I'm speaking to them about, and attracted to the condition of love that I was in even though I was not at-one with God at that point in time. But of course they didn't have a strong feeling to embrace the teachings for themselves. They weren't always very passionate about prayer or any of the other things about becoming at-one with God. But there was a growing number, a very slowly growing number. From the time of 25 years of age onwards, around about, there was a slowly growing number of people who were listening. And I would walk around the different towns in the Sea of Galilee and visit different places. I worked fixing fishing nets for the fishermen and so I got to share a lot of the Divine Truth with lots of different people, just average people.

      In that process many of them started to put into practice, or started to at least attempt to put into practice, some things about love that they were learning. They would talk about it and share it with others and so by the time I became at-one with God there was already quite a large following of people who had heard the Divine Truth. That being said, most of them hadn't personally practiced the Divine Truth because they couldn't understand the difference between intellectually hearing and understanding and a soul-based awareness and understanding. There was a lot of confusion about the difference between intellectual and soul-based awareness.

      And so when I spoke of the different things that transform the soul and receiving Divine Love, and of course receiving Divine Love is very much about getting yourself into a state of humility and truth, many of them weren't humble, particularly to their own emotions and many of them weren't very truthful in their day-to-day life. As a result they would often be in a lot of argumentative places even though they were following me around. So even before I became at-one with God, you'd have people like Peter and others, like John and James, who knew me before I became at-one with God; they'd be following along behind me having their little arguments and fights about all sorts of issues that they hadn't been able to resolve from the things I was trying to teach them.

      In addition to that there were large groups of women who were also very interested. Now it was more difficult for a woman because they just couldn't leave a home or a family and follow easily unless their husbands were willing to do so, and so for many of the women, as they were primarily, before I became at-one with God, before I was baptised, they took the opportunities to listen when I visited their town but they couldn't follow around and listen to everything of course. And of course there were no written things, very little written down at this point, so they could only listen and only hear through word of mouth what was being taught.

      Now of course word of mouth as you know is quite a distorted (laughing) means of transmitting information because one person can say one thing and then the emotional filters of the next person filter all of that out and they relay the information, and so quite a lot of the information that people were hearing was actually already a distortion of what I was sharing. It was their slant, if you like, on what I was sharing and this occurred quite a lot as well. But there were actually large groups of women who were interested in Divine Truth. Sometimes the women were more interested than the men, and a few of them
