The Planet Mars and Its Inhabitants, a Psychic Revelation
Kennon, J. L.
Mars (Planet) -- Miscellanea; Spiritualism
I have come to your Earth to give your inhabitants some idea of the
idealistic life lived by your more advanced brothers. I use the term
idealistic in a relative way only, for in God's universe the degrees of
material progress of His children are infinite in number.
In giving this information to the inhabitants of your world I have been
assisted by the spirits of many former wise children of your Earth.
The purpose of the information which I am about to impart to your
people is mainly to stimulate and hasten into material expression the
reign of God's kingdom on your Earth.
Many will reject this information, but it is God's truth nevertheless.
But on the other hand, many of God's children now functioning on your
planet will accept the statements as true, and they will be helped and
encouraged in their hard struggle for material existence. This
struggle, unequal as it is, is the result of darkness engendered by the
loss of faith in God.
Man's faith in his Creator, in the ages preceding your present era of
darkness, was sublime. Man's attitude towards, and his confidence in
the promises of God was as the faith of a child to its parents, whom it
has always trusted. But selfishness has gained the upper hand, and is
now man's master on your Earth. To break the chains now binding man to
self is the purpose of God's holy emissaries, who have descended from
high spiritual spheres to your Earth to teach and show men the way out
of bondage. They will succeed, for Omniscience has commanded it. It is
under their direction that I am now contributing my little part in this
movement.
I am only too glad to have been able to give the information contained
in this book, and I also appreciate the assistance of all those on your
Earth plane who so willingly assisted; but of course we are all obeying
the Father's command.
As life is an attribute of the entire universe, the material aspect of
all God's creations are the same. That is, life on another planet must
be thought of as being no different from what experience teaches you.
All inspiration comes from the Father. Hence, the degree of a race's
advancement in point of civilization is in proportion to its spiritual
enfoldment. Therefore the material aspect of life, which includes
God's evolutionary and non-evolutionary creatures, is the same on every
habitable globe in limitless space.
In telling the story of Mars you must be prepared to believe that, from
a physical point of view, the Martians are just human beings, differing
little from the people of your Earth.
