Divine Truth is a spiritual or new religious movement based in Australia. The church〔('Australian IT worker believes he is Jesus' - Daily Mail - 30 May 2013 )〕 was started in 2007 by spiritual teacher Alan John Miller, also known as A.J., who claims to be Jesus of Nazareth through reincarnation. Miller was formerly an elder in the Jehovah's Witnesses and ran a computer business. In 2007, Miller purchased a 16 hectare property at Wilkesdale, Queensland, Australia. In 2009, Divine Truth followers purchased another 240ha property with plans to build "learning centres" and a visiting centre for international visitors. It is estimated that up to 40 more followers have since moved to Wilkesdale which is located near Kingaroy. Miller's spiritualist teachings about Divine Love, Divine Truth, Spiritual Spheres, The Hells, and the Law of Attraction appear earlier from James E Padgett (1852-1923), and the prayer for divine love on Miller's website appeared in Padgett's writings in 1916. However, a Padgett website has posted numerous objections in denial of Miller's claim to be Jesus, and some of his teachings. ==Leadership== Miller, the spiritual leader of Divine Truth, claims to have realized he was Jesus Christ over a one-week period. Miller claims to remember nearly everything that has happened over the past 2000 years, including his crucifixion. When questioned about whether he could speak Aramaic, the language spoken by Jesus, he said, "It can be spoken. Not now I can't." Miller goes on to say that he has met Plato, Aristotle, Socrates, Gandhi, Moses, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in the afterlife. In a seven-minute interview which aired on ''A Current Affair'', Miller went on to claim Divine Truth as God's truth and as the "absolute truth of the universe". Miller has stated that he does not know all truth and that no one but God knows all truth. His partner, Mary Suzanne Luck, claims to know she is the reincarnation of Mary Magdalene,〔although she had no knowledge of her 1st-century self before meeting Miller. On the British magazine-programme ''This Morning'' on 15 July 2015 Miller claimed that in the 1st century as Jesus he was in a state of "at-one-ment" with God and thus God could perform miracles through him; in his present "incarnation" he is not yet at that stage of development and thus cannot perform miracles. He only became at one with God at the age of 31 in the first century. In his present (2015) "incarnation" he only started accepting he was Jesus at the age of 40 (although he said he has had memories of being Jesus since he was 2).〔(Man Claims to be Jesus on ''This Morning'' - ''This Morning'' - 15 July 2015 - available on YouTube )〕 When asked by Eamonn Holmes what his message to the world is Miller responded that there are two forms of love, the love that flows from the individual to another (natural love) and then there is God's Love (Divine Love). God's love can enter a person and has the power to transform a person. Miller stated that he encourages people to engage this process by asking God for His love and then to notice the changes that will occur once a person receives this love and their ability to share this love with others. Miller claims he communicates with God not through words but that God communicates through Her Love and this is how he also discovers God's Truth, a process open to all people, all God's children. 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Divine Truth」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
